*OFFICIAL MARCH 2010 THREAD* - Lets countdown together!

[Jasperann]

Jasperann I am so happy for you!

I am in the same boat. We have only a small $200 payment to make on the 28th and the money has already been put aside so the trip is as good as paid off!

60 Days until we're back home at the Poly! Getting so close now that I'm really feeling excited.

I would LOVE to stay in the Poly! One day we will. Even if we have to pay on the trip for two years to go. I've not been to WDW since I was very young. So I don't remember much but the campground... But I have seen the pictures of the Poly resort and they all look so beautiful . We are even eating at the Poly on our first night so that I can see it in person.

We get to stay at the poly for ONE night in March...we are so looking forward to it!

Regarding making final payment, do I call them or can I do this online?

I believe you can do it either way. Log into the My Disney vacation section and enter your confirmation number and details and there should be an option of paying online. You can also mail them a cheque; just make sure you have the correct address (depends on whether it's regular mail or courier)

I believe you can do it online - I think that's what I did for our trip last May.

I would LOVE to stay in the Poly! One day we will. Even if we have to pay on the trip for two years to go. I've not been to WDW since I was very young. So I don't remember much but the campground...

Oh me too. That's why we're splitting our stay this time and spending our last two nights at the Polynesian so we can afford it now. I've got our dining reservations set to dine at Kona one night and 'Ohana the other so that way we can spend as much time there as possible. I'm never going to want to leave.

Hi Everyone!
We too are traveling in late Feb. early March!!

We are going 2/27 - 3/6 and are staying at CSR! Yeah! We are so excited! I've booked all our dining and finally go into Ohana's on 3/4 for our ten year wedding anniversary.

Only 1 dilemma! I have been surfing the disboard for over 2 months now and am starting to wonder if we are touring the right parks on the right days. I followed the touring plans from PassPorters to book dining and plan our day's..(see below)

2/27 Epcot (rated a
2/28 Holly Wood Studio's
3/1 MK
3/2 AK
3/3 Epcot
3/4 Free Day
3/5 MK
3/6 Free Day

Now I'm stressing out wondering if I should have followed Tour Guide Mike... Does anyone know what he suggests for the first week of March??

I think the touring plans from all the sites are pretty silly. If you do FP and EMH right, with that long of a vacation, you'll be fine, no matter what park you're at. If it's too crowded, hop to a different one.

I went ahead and joined TGM, and I love it!!!!!!! It makes all this second-guessing nonexistent! There is a whole board of people that help you w/ touring plans and everything you could imagine. The information there is priceless to me!

 

[sand&sun2]

going march 12

 

[that's nice]

We just payed off our trip this morning!!!! I can not wait to go now! It is so close now for all of us.

Feels good to get that bill payed off!!!!!!

What are your dates again?

EDIT:: I noticed from your ticker you are at 55 days... so we will be there the same time! Do you have a touring plan yet?

 

[Team Tebeau]

Thank you for the input! I might check to see what they TGM has to say! I wonder how different it is from Pass Porters?

 

[SMWfamily]

I just bought the 2010 passporter today and am having SO much fun with it. I love how it's organized with all the information and space for writing things down. Perfect for a Disney obsessed person like me!

We are driving down and will be arriving on March 9th.

Epcot on 3/9 and Ohana (hoping for a good view of wishes) for dinner (just an easy day)
MK on 3/10 and Breakfast at Chef Mickeys and Dinner at 1900 Park Fare
AK on 3/11 and Breakfast at Donald's Safari then DTD in the evening
Epcot on 3/12 and Dinner at Coral Reef
DHS on 3/13 (although this is an EMH early morning and Epcot the night before is EMH night... so I'm not sure if that is going to work out... )
MK on 3/14 and Breakfast at 1900 Park Fare
Pack up to leave on 3/15 and go to park of choice for a half day.

We have a full schedule, which I'm sure will change some. For my family it is our first time, so we are trying to get some character meals in for each of the kids. I'm so excited to be going!

We might be in Epcot on Friday 3/12/ We haven't decided this yet. I think it will be a game time decision! LOL Monday 3/15 we will most likely be at MK.

You have some great character meals! We loved 1900PF for both breakfast & dinner.

I'm not sure about the 11th (night). This is my DD's 4th birthday. We have a dinner ADR at 1900 PF. I don't know if we will go back to MK for the fireworks or goto DTD. If I had to guess I would say the fireworks.

Your trip report is what had me go back and make the ADR for breakfast at 1900PF. We really want interaction with the characters and it looks really fun.

We just switched form the split stay (POR/AKL) to POLY!!! Made tons more since for the kids to see me in the Princess 1/2... and I had been lobbying for it for MONTHS! Plus, who can ignore 40% off at March Break?

We will be there March 5-11... then 3-night cruise.

I also switched around ADR's after the resort change...

3/7 Lunch at The Plaza
3/8 EPCOT Princess Breakfasts (one of our favorites, so much Princess time!)
3/8 Dinner at San Angel Inn
3/9 Dinner at Sci-Fi
3/10 Breakfast at Crystal Palace
3/10 Dinner at Tony's
3/11 Breakfast at Chef Mickey's

I cannot wait!
