Another Keen wearer here!!

I have the Newport H2's and LOVE those things. They are great in Disney! My whole family has a pair.....though the girls need new ones this year.

I was just looking at the Keens and they remind me of my Merrells that I picked up a couple of years ago.

My FP+ Priorities:

MK: 7DMR, Splash, POTC, BTMR

EP; Soarin'

AK: EE, Safari

DHS: TSMM

Hoping a couple of RDs take care of lots of other things we'd like to ride. No pressure this trip since it's just DH and me for 3.5 days.

I'm going to buy Keen Whispers too! I saw a pair in DSW and tried them on. That was it. I knew they would be perfect for WDW. So comfortable. Haven't bought them yet. Still trying to decide what color. What color did you get?

I got the light blue. Blue is my favorite color and they were such a nice powder blue.

I just wanted to mention that I just got the Keen Rose sandals for this summer and I LOVE them! Hoping to book an August trip yet so I can wear them around the Magic Kingdom. I have the Whispers also and like the Rose even better. I have the Red Dahlia (available on Zappos but not on Keen's website for some reason). Love the fun color also!

I may want to buy a second pair. Will have to check out the Rose style. I am not sure if they had them at REI.

I never tried those on because I fell in love with the Whispers! The H2's are heavier. I wonder if that means they last longer. Will try them on next shopping trip.

I am not a shoe person and it really hurts my back to even go through the process of trying on lots of shoes. I thought I would love the Ecco Yucatans, but they just didn't feel right. I don't think they had a large selection of Merrells. I really took my time and tried to figure out possible blister-making spots. I hope rotating and wearing good shoes will help me avoid blisters and foot pain!

Love the light blue too! Was debating a neutral color or fun color. May just go with a fun color!

I got my pool tubes this morning from Amazon!

We ordered 4 tubes (two Intex River Rats for my big guys, and two smaller Intex floral ones for us ladies ) to enjoy using in the Vistana's 7 pools during our two week visit.

That little delivery has made my day . Yep, its the little things . 101 days to go!

We have finally booked our WDW vacation 17th-24th and we're staying in the little mermaid room at AOA. This will be my daughters third time in WDW but first time to actually participate and understand.

Her 4th Birthday is just 30 days before our trip. We plan on surprising her with a package "from the castle" a cinderella dress, tiara and a letter from Cinderella inviting her to stay for a week. We have reservations at Akershus for breakfast and Cinderellas Royal Table with the princess package for a lunch later in the week.

The hardest part from here on out is keeping my mouth shut!

Awesome plan to surprise her!! We will be there from the 17th - 22nd in the Cars Suite. Also hoping to surprise my kids (not sure how yet), it will be our first time there... so excited! I can't tell you how many times Ive nearly slipped already though lol. Good luck

My DH and I have fantasized about staying a month in WDW and the hotels we would stay in. Of course, we would have to win the lottery!! Your daughter is a very lucky girl.
