This is my first ever trip report. My daughter and I are going all by ourselves Jan 30th to February 5th. 6 whole nights of no boys! My DH and DS who are 15 and 11 opted out of going. So it will just be my 3.5 yo DD and myself. We are staying at POP Century, and I consider myself a Disney Veteran. Although so many things I have not done in the past because the boys weren't interrested. Things like Pocohontas, Minnies House, the Castle shows, and very rerely a parade. Now with my DD we can do all of the girly things we want. I can hardly stand the wait!

So I wanted to share some of the outfits I have planned for our trip, and our basci itinerary. A lot of planning and re-planning went into this...hopefully it will work out, If not, the trip is all about us girls, so we can do whatever we choose!!

Day One: Arrival Day

Fly into MCO at 11:40 take ME to POP. This is what DD will wear on the plane:

After BBB we will hop the monorail to the Grand Floridian. Here we will enjoy the magic of the meal at 1900 Park Fare. Afterwards we will go to the beach at the Polynesian, and watch the boat parade and fireworks from there beach. Then a quick hop back to POP and bed! This is quite a long day, so we may very well skip the whole Poly on the beach, and just go back to the room for the night.
 
Day Two: Magic Kingdom...Dumbo or die!!!!

We will be up bright and early to get into Early Entrance at the MK! Can't wait for DD to experience everything! This is what she will wear:

Day Four: Call us crazy, but weather permitting, Typhoon Lagoon. We have the free upgrades, so even if it's only for an hour, i think we are gonna go here this morning. I think they open at 9am or maybe 10?
She will wear one of these suits with a rash guard:

That is it for the night. Sniff, our last night!
 
Last day. SAD already!!! We have no ADR's this day. It will definately be a Magic Kingdom day! Our flight leaves at 5pm, so we will probably have to catch ME at 3pm. I figure this means we can stay in the park until 2pm. Well her last outfit will be an Alice In Wonderland. It's a "vintage" Disney costume that they no longer sell.

:lovestruc Absolutely amazing! I love all of your planning and outfits. Now how are you going to get them to WDW in one piece unwrinkled? Last year I rolled everything and put them in zip-lock bags, squeezed the air out and labeled with the date and time of wear and child's name. Can you do that with those darling outfits???? I just had plain old shorts and t's. Well, anyways, you are going to have the time of your life! Take lots of pics and enjoy your time together. :goodvibes
