Leaving Sat. and Am Anxious

[zoolady1]

This is my trip with the whole gang, DH, Mom and DD and her best friend..
I am anxious about everything..
The Southwest flight, the weather..and what parks to go to..
I have tried to plan accordingly and just get confused..
We are staying offsite so no EMH..and are only doing three days..
Sun-Tues are our 3 days..
Any suggestions on which parks which days..
We will split AK and MGM..do Epcot one day..and of course MK..
My 9 year anniversary is Tues. any help there?
And one day, DH and I go to KSC..
I'm so confused.. and excited at the same time..

Instead of worrying about all that could go wrong, focus on all the fun you will have.

Don't go there wanting to see it all, you won't. Enjoy your anniversary. It's a beautiful place to celebrate.

I do not have much of a touring plan either. I am avoiding EMH, getting there for park opening, focusing on the main attractions I want to get done before lunch, and relax the rest of the day.

THe most important thing is not which parks on which days, but have a touring plan. The ones in Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World are nice. You can go to www.touringplans.com to see samples.

You really shouldn't be anxious...you should be dancin'!
Here's for you! Happy Anniversary! Have fun!

I am absolutely no help. We leave the following Saturday on a trip to Cozumel with my brother's family and my mother. Instead of being very excited, I keep drifting back to worrying - the flight, the weather, will it be nearly as enjoyable as a Disney trip...

I expect as soon as we land in our destination, the joy and excitement will take over and we'll both have marvelous trips!

I plan for months, have all my ducks in a row and I still get anxious. It's normal. Don't worry, once you get there everything will be fine.

I'm the same way. 2 weeks ago I was but now we're leaving home in 6 days and I am really anxious. I'm actually stalling on packing and putting the final work in on the itinerary, something I NEVER thought would happen, after planning this trip for 2 years. So I understand. Try not to worry to much about the practical stuff (getting there, weather, etc) and when you get stressed think about the magic. We've been to DL many times (WDW first timer though!) so looking back to my magic moments there helps push past the anxiety. Having some Xanax packed for the flight helps too.

We arrive on Saturday too (We leave tomorrow evening)! You will have so much fun. Try not to stress too much about the what if's and just start thinking about all the fun your going to have fun. Have a great time!!

 

[zoolady1]

thank you..I will not stress! I will not stress! HA!
Honestly, it's DH I worry about..me I'm Ms. Carefree, but him..UGH..
I'll just leep reminding him how much he loves me!
Good trips to all of us!

Whenever I start to stress I imagine myself settling into a chair at Stormalong Bay (we are staying at the YC), my kids are playing on the sandy area of the pool, and we are all just happy to be there.

I try and remember that the whole purpose of our trip is to relax and have some family time- not see everything and eat at just the right places. When I do that, it keeps me from stressing too much.

So relax- you are going to have a great time!
