It's been 6 years, but we're finally going back: a PTR! UPDATED 2/9 change to August dates?

Oh and can I say 1911 photopass photos may take me awhile to go through. We're missing between 3 and 6 too since our ones from Goofy at the sideshow didn't show up, I am trying to decide if I care enough to do something about it.

I love that your vacation got extended 3 days! I totally count that as pixie dust! Looks like ya'll are all having an awesome time!!!

We did and the 3 extra days were nice since it let us put a much needed break in there before the last 2 days. Minion 3 was done even with the break, but it worked well for the rest of us.

I'm really glad we got Tusker House since I was looking forward to it. I really think Magic Kingdom is the way to end a trip. Starting it there isn't as important to me, but it is definitely top of the list for last day options.

I feel the same way about MK! I'm fine not doing our first day at MK; in fact we haven't started our last 4 or 5 trips there. But I'm not happy if at least part of our last day isn't spent there

We had an awesome last day there. Which I will eventually get to in my new trip report!

I have posted my new trip report. Wait the Blizzard wasn't in my plans!

I will continue posting here since I still need to plan for Universal and a day at Disney in August and our Disneyland trip in December.

It really is, and it is still all over the grass. I think it should mostly melt this week. The boys went out one day in it, the girl wasn't interested.

Okay so quick update. I never did get to guest services to try to transfer the 2 1 day admissions I have left on tickets from 1993, attriel isn't sure we should, they are kind of awesome looking. If we don't though we'll have to figure out what we are doing for tickets for our anniversary.

That being said, I need to check with him about Great Wolf Lodge for the beginning of March still and I need to start planning our Universal and Disney trip for our anniversary. The current plan hasn't changed yet, we're thinking August 4th arrival and leaving on the morning of the 8th, or evening of the 7th, I'm hoping for the 8th. I think we're going to just do one Universal day since we really just want to see Harry Potter, and aren't concerned about the rest of the parks. I am still debating where to stay, if we stay on Universal property or not. I do know it is going to be hot. Also I need to figure out what we are doing about Disney, we had talked about 1 Disney day, but I kind of want to do 2, I would really like to do both Hollywood studios and Star War stuff and I'd really like to see the new Animal Kingdom stuff, okay I also want to see EPCOT and Maelstorm, and how can I miss Magic Kingdom? If I have to chose 2 parks though I think it would be HS and I am just not sure... This is what I like to call a big problem. With only 3 days to do things though it is going to be hard to narrow things down, even though we were just there for 15ish days. I may have to admit defeat and just skip all Disney parks, eek! Or maybe we'll waterpark it, so tough to decide.

I also need to start thinking about the Disneyland trip. We're thinking December, my Mom mentioned that we might be able to use the timeshare for it, or at least part of it, I really need to check into that. It won't be too bad for our LA days at least to be in the timeshare as long as it isn't too far from the parks.

So my Mom is going to go to Greece this summer with my Aunt. They get back the week before we were planning to go. Which won't be a huge deal, but she wants to be at work at least a full week before watching the minions.

No big deal as I told her I am not wedded (haha pun) to going on our anniversary. Attriel and I will probably push the Universal/Disney adult long weekend trip to August 11/12 - 14/15 rather then the 4/5 - 7/8th.

She also suggested moving Disneyland to January since she is going to be using up most of her vacation time. That one might be a bit less flexible since we would really like to see the holiday decorations at Disneyland. We'll see though, it isn't like we've even done anything about the Disneyland trip other then set a time period for it so far.

I really need to start planning on Disneyland trip and our summer anniversary trip. I have just been so busy, I haven't even started looking at either. Hope to have some more info soon.
