"mom, really? Disney in December again?" PTR** link to TR last page**

[jenseib]

Looks like a fun day. I have an AD for Ohana's and I keep debating on whether to keep it or not. It's for arrival day, and not till 8:40. But the thing is, I have to pay OOP for that one. and I just don't know if I really want to spend close to $100 after tip to go there. I hear excellent reviews on it, but it is so costly. And I'm not sure if Holiday pricing will be in effect then and if so how much more it will be.

I think Pop Warner is also staying at one of the PO's resorts, but I forget which one.

Now

Holy cow!

I'm so glad the Toontown closing was moved. We'll definately have to pop in there for the last time. I once heard a looooong time ago Mickey and Minnie's houses were moving to the front of the park but haven't heard anything since.

Got this off of easyWDW.....

This year’s dates are Saturday December 4th through Saturday December 11th. For those unfamiliar, Pop Warner is a serious youth football league (and also cheer and dance) with approximately 400,000 participants nationwide. They host their version of the “Super Bowl” each year in December, which brings more than 16,000 participants to the Disney World area. Unlike other major events where the participants largely stay off Disney property, almost all Pop Warner kids and their families will stay at Disney-owned resorts.

This year, they are receiving discounts to stay at the All-Star Movies, All-Star Sports, and All-Star Music Value Resorts and the Port Orleans Riverside and French Quarter Moderate Resorts. If there are more reservations than rooms, overflow guests may also be placed at the Coronado Springs or Caribbean Beach Moderate Resorts.

I know my countdown is small now and soon it will be just one hanging chain!!!

I am really happy that I get to see them one more time for sure because I didn't get enough pictures of them last trip!

I know eh... you don't notice how fast it goes when you take off one day at a time

Slow down... In Disney... Is that possible????

The horror!

my cousin joked when she saw our itinerary that we didn't have any bathroom breaks on the schedule and she was really concerned about peeing her pants.

your second MK day looks great. love those cinnamon rolls! We also love O'hana!! one of our favorites and is on our schedule too.

love your countdown chain, so what is written on each one- trivia or something? i can't believe how far down it has gone- when did you start it? I love it!

lol.. The more I go the more I wanna slow down now.... check out the details!!! I am spending a whole 3rd day at MK this trip with NO PLAN

Last year I went with the girls by myself so we went to the bathroom before we got in any line, I think we saw every bathroom in Disney

The chain is cool... I got it from someone on the boards

It says the # of days till Disney and has a character on each one.

If anyone wants a copy send me a PM with your email address and I will send it. I think it goes to 100 days and I just put more for longer

 

[Tinkermom76]

On to Day 6 plans!!!

Day 6 Tuesday December 14

Today is the 2nd day we will spend at

Future World is open from 8am to 9:30pm

I think we will head over and grab a fastpass for Soarin then ride Nemo and do Turtle Talk with Crush

By then it will be time for breakfast at

This is another Emma pick because she wants to see

Since Ariel’s grotto is closed she wants to see her here

After breakfast we will grab a fastpass for Mission Space (green of course) and then ride spaceship earth. Emma doesn’t like rides, will she be ok on these?????

When we ride soarin we will also do Living with the land and Circle of life (both new for us)

Last year we spent most of our time in Epcot looking for characters so this year we will worry less about the characters and more about the rides.
If we finish all we want to do in Future World we will more than likely head back to Pop for a rest (or swim) but we have to be at the GF at 4:35 for our Dinner at 1900 Park Fare. We had breakfast here last year but Dinner was Eryka’s pick. I know you think she wants to go here to see her favorite princess Cinderella…… um no…. she wants to see her future hubby Prince Charming

After Dinner we can head back to Epcot and check out the World Showcase for a bit and grab a spot to watch Illuminations. If we are too tired then we can skip it, hopefully we will have seen it on Dec 10th.

Claire loves the Prince there too. She blushes when she sees him.

lol... little girls always want to marry a prince

 

[jenseib]

lol... little girls always want to marry a prince

Yes. The first time she went, all she worried about was when we would see the Prince. She could've cared less about Cinderella. But then Cindy took extra time with her since we were the last table she was visiting for the night, so Claire really liked her. And then the next trip she got to spend some extra time with Cindy at CRT, so she is pretty popular now. But I still think the Prince wins out. LOL! I mention sometimes that Skip is my Prince, and she tells me he's no prince, he's just daddy.

I really gotta get down to planning each day. I'm not a crazy planner, but I do want to have something written down to reference while we are there. I started it, and got the first four days mapped out, so I'm at least half done. I should probably go to a dayplanner site, but I know that will never happen.
