Hey y'all - Sorry to barge in on your thread! I just canceled our family trip sad1 for our Spring Break this year and I have some really great dining reservations that have to get canceled, too. Before I post on the regular cancellation thread, I thought I would post them here. I know MAW trips are usually last minute so reservations can be harder to get.

I know Disney doesn't let me change the names, but we could probably coordinate the cancellation to increase the likelihood of passing these along!

Our trip was to be March 7-12, so if anyone is going to be in the World at that time and needs reservations for 4, this is what I have:

Sun March 7 - lunch at 50s Prime Time, dinner - Mama Melrose Fantasmic Package (early dinner)

Mon March 8 - breakfast before park opening at Crystal Palace, lunch at Cinderella's Royal Table, dinner at California Grill during the fireworks

Tues March 9 - dinner at Narcoossee's

Wed March 10 - breakfast at Chef Mickey's, lunch at Coral Reef, dinner at Le Cellier

Thurs March 11 - breakfast at Tusker House before park opening, lunch at Yak & yeti, dinner at Artist Point

Fri March 12 - breakfast at Cinderella's Royal Table, lunch at Liberty Tree Tavern, dinner at The Wave

Just send me a PM if you want any of these and we'll try to figure it out!

 

[that's nice]

That is great!!! You have been giving such good advice to other families on this thread. Now you guys get to be apart of the magic!!! Cant wait to start reading your pre trip report.

Aww thanks! I get emails when you update Mya's caringbridge site. IT really seems like she is making great strides! When I start a PTR, I'll let you all know!

First off, I am so sorry you had to cancel your trip.. I hope you can make the trip again soon. I also just wanted to say how awesome I think it is that you came here to share with the wish families your reservations that you need to cancel and to see if any family here can use them...truly magically...

We had our going away party last night! It was wonderful! Mickey and Minnie were there. They did the chicken dance, the hokey pokey, the limbo and several others with all the kids. Sloan had a death grip on uis though. He did not want to be put down. Towards the end he fianlly got really close to them, but still wouldn't let go of us.

The news station was there, too. Everyone volunteered me to do the interview. Thanks a lot! I broke down at one point and was just a nervous wreck the rest of the time. Praise God they didn't use it!!! They just had video of Sloan and I and the other wish child while the news anchors told about it.

We got our Dream Factory shirts last night and some other goodies. We got our letter telling about everything as well as our confirmation number for GKTW. We've got our e-ticket thing with instructions on how to get our boarding passes as well. She said she'll get with me next week sometime to give us our expense check. She said it would be enough for all our gas, food and souvenirs!

We're soooo excited and can't wait!!!!

(I don't have nay pictures right now since my camera battery bit the dust but I'll try to post some as soon as I get them from my mom.)

That was very thoughtful of you. I think there are only a couple of families going in March, but maybe there are some lurkers reading who will contact you.

How fun!!! I can't believe they had The Big Guy and Girl there as well as the news! I probably would have been a wreck too. Looking forward to the pics!

I am so sorry that some of you guys missed the Part 3 of the thread!

I am sure it didn't help that I moved it to another board altogether! But I think this is going to work out much better for us!

Mya and I are also going back to WDW during her birthday week in October. The 26th to Nov 1 to be exact. We are staying at Pop century and have the deluxe plan. We will also be planning to stop back at GKTW on November 1 while we are down there to revisit Mya's star and have fun. Unfortunately writing a pre trip report has not been as much fun this year since we dont have the wonderful wish trip families following. I have no subs nor responses. I even added a link on my signature but still, nothing. I will say that our wish trip last year totally spoiled us and while I know it won't be the same am still trying to duplicate somethings. This time we will also be adding another little princess as I decided to take my 3 year old niece along.

I found your pre-trippie and have subscribed! I can't wait to hear more about your trip! I am so sorry that others on the DIS did not even respond.

Okay, I fixed the problem. It should work now. Thanks for going to check it out.

Ah! That should help!!

Yeah... We too are going back next month. We are staying at Port Orleans French Quarter, which we are excitied about, but we decided to go back to GKTW and volunteer two evening shifts as a family during this trip. We do not have a car either, so we will take a cab or shuttle of some sort, still trying to see what would be cheaper, since we will be going back and forth 2 times. We can't wait.

I just hope the weather is good down there.... Enjoy and I hope you all have a wonderful trip back as well..

I loved POFQ...make sure you make it over to POR to see Yee Haw Bob - he was GREAT! A very fun show and great for kids, too!

Oh...and PM me about your lack of a car...I think I may have a suggestion or two (unless GKTW is going to help you with transportation)?

Hey everyone!

I didn't realize that the old thread was closed. I was wondering why it wasn't showing up on my subbed threads. I'll be looking forward to trying to help or answer any questions I can on the new thread!

My DD3 was approved for a wish at the beginning of December and her granters are coming next Friday! I hope she wishes to goto Disney but we will see what happens.

I can't wait to see what she decides!!!!

Thank you SOOOOO much for thinking of us...I hope that someone here has sent you a PM, if they could use the reservations. If not...we may have a family that ends up going that we don't even know yet.

I am so sorry you had to cancel your trip.

Hi Everyone,

I just had a quick question for all of you who have already been on your wish trips!! Our wish granters told us about the "passport" that families receive for other parks in the country that is good for the year after the wish trip, will we be able to get that even though we are staying at AKL??? It looks so awesome!!!

The other question I had, was I know that you can get tickets to some of the other area parks from GKTW...do you all know if Aquatica is one of them?? I was thinking that would be something fun to do with the kids while we were there and we wouldn't have to spend the $$ on tickets to Blizzard Beach of Typhoon Lagoon. Have any of you been to Aquatica??

Hi Everyone, Happy New Year!! It has been quite a while since I posted anything!! Got a call yesterday that Brian's Wish has been approved and will be granted!! They have not booked it yet, so I still don't have our dates!! But We will be setting sail on the Disney Magic for a cruise in either The end of March or April!!! He is soo excited!!

I can't believe that this is all coming true!! Only problem is I am a planner and it is killing me not to have the dates yet. I would love to look into some excusions or maybe a spa treatment (that one is for ME!!) But it will all work out, even if we do nothing but relax and spend time with each other it will be the BEST Vacation ever!!!

I will work on a PTR soon. Was afraid to start too early and jinx myself!! Once we have the dates I will begin!!
