[Dizzy4DL]

Count me in!
Me, my mom and my daughter will be celebrating my mom's 60th at Disneyland's 60th! I'm so excited we were able to make it happen, it was looking doubtful with 3 schedules to work around. Hubby won't be joining us, it's a true girl's trip.

[pamcarey]

We're going August 8-16, staying in a rental condo. Me, DH, DS20, and DD15. 3rd visit for me (last one was in 1991), 2nd visit for DH (last one was in 1990), and first visit for both kids. We're WDW pros, so really excited to check out the left coast!

 

[Mickeybell]

Add us in to the going in August!!! We are going the 27th to the 30th. So excited we will be staying at the Paradise Pier!

Woo hoo! Was just able to switch my reservations to a Kids' Suite at the Springhill Convention Center. It was my first choice hotel for my group of 6, based upon all the rave reviews I'm hearing, but I delayed booking and it was up to $319 a night for our dates so I booked the Camelot. Just checked again and got it for $260, plus 6% cash back from Ebates, so ends up only $200 more for our six nights than the Camelot (and since I don't think the Camelot has free breakfast, that right there is easily worth $200). So excited the trip is getting close!

I still, however, need to book another back up hotel. We are bringing my 18 year old's boyfriend, who we adore, but their relationship has been a little tenuous lately and I definitely want a back up hotel for if I'm not bringing six people. Tempted to consider on-site if that's the case; on-site for six people cost as much as the total cost for three of us to spend two weeks in Europe last summer so no way I'm paying that, but with five, it gets much more possible....

 

[Mama Mia]

Add us to the fun! August 2-8 in DL on the 4th and 6th for our 27th wedding anniversary. Staying at the Courtyard Irvine Spectrum. I know it is far but I work for Marriott and it is the only hotel with the employee rate for those dates.

So cute! Good job! Although Minnie's bloomers peeking out make me think she would be fun to Disneybound as, too!

 

[rentayenta]

We changed to the Anaheim Hilton- the one with the Starbucks within walking distance. So we'll have 5 nights in Seal Beach in 3 nights in Anaheim.

 

[duckwife]

We will be there Aug 18-22. Taking DS 19, DS friend (20) who lives with us, and my nephew (12) Plus my self and DH of course
We will be staying in a 2 room suite at the Desert Inn and Suites. Love it because it gives the boys their own room but they are close enough we can keep an eye on them! Excited for the 60th anniversary stuff!!

 

[DetroitAvant]

Looks like that week of August 22nd Fantasmic goes to weekends only, the dining packages showed up again on the 28th and has no availability during the week. Makes me glad I made sure were there on a Sunday! I'll still keep an eye out until the park hours are published to see if they change their mind.

 

[Aladora]

Sorry for the delay updating, DS is off school and camp does not start until next week so this week I will be playing the role of stay at home mom!

Welcome to the thread! I'll add you to the list in the morning.

If you (or any other first timers) want to ask any questions about the parks, feel free to ask!

 

[kindra657]

Thank you so much! I have so many questions! I'm trying to google my way through them all

 

[Aladora]

Ask away, I am sure someone here can help with the answer!
