Ok...all this talk of PTRs has me wanting to do one of my own but I am not sure if anyone would follow along since this is our first trip. Not really sure what I should do. :confused3
 
Ok you guys have forced me to do a trip report
I know! Once you start reading them it's addictive! And then you want to join the club! ;)

I was thinking of doing a trip report.. but Im afraid no one will read it! kwim!?

Yes! I do know EXACTLY what you mean. I get a little jealous of the people who have 27 pages of replies to their trip reports! But it is fun to write one. :laughing:


We are considering adding on an additional day to our holiday WDW Christmas vacation in order to add on the Very Merry Christmas Party. Is it worth the extra hotel expense + the party tickets???

Or, would you add on the dessert party for the family at the end of the trip for the last night?

Thanks for input :santa:


I've only ever been to one party (Pirate and Princess) but I can tell you that it was the highlight of our trip. We loved it! And the kids still talk about it. I agree with the PP who said that adding a day is always a good idea! :idea:

i don't have a lot of readers for mine, or atleast not a ton that post, but that's okay, i do it for myself too- for the memory!! start one, i am subscribed to quite a few and will add you to the list. i only get to catch up on them about once a week, but i always try and post when i do on them!

btw- a little self promotion :lmao::rotfl:- mine is at :
First Stay HOME at BLT at DVC- 12/4-12/11

Thanks for the advertisement! I need to go over and catch up on yours! :thumbsup2

OK, looks like I needed to be hit over the head for your PTR. I can't believe I never read the PTR of the person who is keeping track of all of our PTR's. Feel free to mock me to your hearts content for being Captain Oblivious.

Wait a minute here....didn't I just have to beg for forgiveness for being gone on vacation when you started yours and missing the beginning??? :confused3
but good news is that I am an official Annual Passholder!!! yippee!!! purchased last night before prices went up with our DVC discount. woo hoo! :woohoo::woohoo::woohoo::woohoo::woohoo::woohoo:

WOOT! Is this the first time? :cool1:

Ok, so I'm seeing all these Pre-Trip Reports which will lead to Trip reports (I assume unless people are sadistic and detail the lead in but not the actual event :lmao:). So I start to wonder if I should be writing something but I can't imagine that I can write anything that people would actually want to read.
I was thinking of kind of doing a live trip report/daily updates/Q&A :surfweb: but do I need to do a PTR first? And if I do any of these things will anyone even read them and if they do will they then die of boredom or scratch a hole in their heads trying to figure out my weird sense of humor?
Can someone set me straight on trip writing protocol :teacher: or just confirm that I would be writing the report for an audience of 1 and don't bother? :hippie:

I keep telling my friends about my report and making them sit and read it with me....of course, if they aren't Disney nuts like me they sort of just tolerate me and don't think I'm nearly as entertaining as I think I am....;)

Ok...all this talk of PTRs has me wanting to do one of my own but I am not sure if anyone would follow along since this is our first trip. Not really sure what I should do. :confused3

I say go for it! That's how people get to know you. And even if you just do it for yourself, it's still fun! :wizard:

Um, did I do that? That doesn't sound like me. :confused3

Ok, yea it was, that's why you can mock me relentlessly if you so desire.

Are you excited about your trip? Have you spent a rediculous amount of time planning this vacation?

I say just do it. I never wrote a PTR before, and really didn't think I would do a good job, but I have gotten a pretty good following going. Even if I didn't I would still write it just because it is fun for me.

I just booked 2 rooms at Pop for my BFF and her family, I am so excited, even though we may not even see them much.

For our 2009 WDW/Cruise trip, we went with friends. It was the BEST time! :wizard: We did a lot together but we also split up sometimes and did our own thing. We did plan most of our ADRs together. My friend has been to WDW tons of times, so she let me pick all the restaurants. It was so much fun to see people we knew and loved in a place we loved! :cloud9:

Well, the only thing with them is that I think they want to spend most of their time at the hotel and other resorts and I need my park time, but I wouldn't mind having 1 meal together, but that probably won't happen. She is taking her 2 grown children, their spouse and children as well as possibly her boyfriend. I don't want to intrude on their holiday time either.

If I at least get to see her, that will be fine, because we live in different cities now about 8 hours apart/she is only maybe 2 hours from Disney, but hardly ever goes, can you imagine that :eek:

I'm torn about this one. It looks good but not sure I am willing to give up anything to dine there. Maybe on our next trip.

I checked it out, but I am going with two young Princesses so most of our meals are the character meals. No fancy places for us until later years.
 
Ok everyone! :surfweb: I decided to do a PTR because we are riding the train for the first time and I have seen lots of questions being asked about this here on DISboards! I just started it last night and will continue to post! Please come join me! :worship: I'm learning new information every day! :idea: At least it helps pass the time away!;)

I heard the expression about learning something new everyday, I never heard about learning no information every day.:lmao:
