Ok so here is my little diary pre Trip Report. Omg I cant believe im actually writing one of these again. 
I figured im about to burst if I dont post something, and so to post it on disboards where I know others feel the same way feels really good. It seems weird to go on disboards and see posts from other people saying "Whats it gonna be like in 2 weeks when we are there" and knowing im gonna be there too seems so odd, but so incredibly exciting.
WOO HOO! 10 more days I can’t believe it, there’s actually a light at the end of the tunnel, and it gets more exciting each hour. I seem to spend my every waking moment making lists of things I need to do still, things I need to yet pack, things I have to go buy etc. On top of this I have been playing around in my closet for outfits and shoes to bring to Cali with me and then packing them away in my new luggage so I won’t forget anything.
I have been printing out my voucher confirmations for my 9 day DL hoppers (Bought 8 days and then a 1 day pass from getawaytoday) and my one day Universal Studios, then calling the resort to double check all my reservations, and the hotel (Tropicana) to make sure everything is a go. I’ve been going shopping for suntan lotion, travel insurance, kitty litter and pet food so my house sitter has something to work with. I have had to go to the bank to convert my money into US cash, and I have been dancing around my house to Disney music and spending countless hours with all the amazing people on disboards.
Also I really want to do something extremely special for my family as a surprise on the day we leave to get them a bit hyped, and since we are all adults (Me the youngest at age 24) I have to find something appropriate. I decided on getting those Disney phone calls where Mickey or other characters calls you and says “HAHA! Hi there Pal. I hear your going on a trip, See ya real soon”. I plan on giving that to each of my family members just before we head to the airport. But planning a time for that to happen is a bit difficult, but I know I can do it. I will make sure those are set up a few hours before we leave for the airport. We have a 7:30am flight and so If I set up the phone calls just before I go to bed I can basically plan this right. Let’s see how well this turns out. I have already purchased a phone call and sent it to myself to hear what it sounds like and it’s so perfect that it brought tears to my eyes. I cant wait.
Oh well now is the waiting game….. Still so much to get done and next weekend we leave, and so to pass the time I guess its time to crack out those good old Disney movies, not only to mention the wonderful new Pirates movie that is coming out this week….
EEEEEEEk
ok omg that means that the Pirates lair is going to be open too this week 
oh no ok now im getting even more excited. Lets leave the pre trip report here and I’ll post the actual trip report when I get back.
