Officially booked for 3/8/13-3/16/13 at POR!!!!

We booked the exact same dates at POR! This is our first trip so we'll be the ones with the stunned "Where am I and what am I doing?" faces! Although the amount of time I'm logging in reading posts will help our preparation!

I finally convinced my parents to go to the kindgom with us before we go on our cruise But I noticed that on touring Plans they are predicting crowds of 9 and 10. What I am wondering is this the norm (I understand that they use numbers from the past and they can not predict the future) for this time of year? If so we may have to rethink plans.

When we were there this past March (12-16) it was predicted 9 and 10 days and it was definitely that. Space Mountain had over 100 minute waits by 10:00 am the mornings we were in MK. We did rope drop and/or morning EMH every day going straight to our must do ride and grabbing FP and riding standby a couple times right away. We were able to ride SM five times in one morning doing it that way.

It was just me and DD and the trip was about doing what DD wanted to do most so we focused on the thrill rides first but we did most of my favorites too. We even had a couple later afternoon/evenings that we just stayed at the resort pool and had dinner in our room. We got a surprising amount of stuff done that week but we were exhausted when we got home.

Ok, were officially booked...were staying with rented points at Beach Club Villa. D ~ I'm going to have to find the Facebook group!

Its too hard to get on the Dis from my phone...facebook is so much easier!

We are booked at the Holiday Inn Down Town Disney for two nights while DD does a dance workshop and then we move to the Contemporary for 5 nights...second time during spring break, but it's been awhile, actually it will be 10 years since we were at the world for spring break. Our first time was not such a pleasant experience, but we were also newbies...happily we are now seasoned veterans

We are in (me DM and DS 18 and his friend is coming along too) March 23 through March 30. Spring Break for them! Both are seniors in HS this year and should be fun for DS to have a friend along.

Staying at WBC, we were in WDW July 28-Aug 4th and while we were there I received the e-mail that Bonnet Creek had opened up for March. So while DS went through the single rider line about 10 times on RnRC I was making our reservations for Spring Break!

Now on the hunt for airline tickets. Waiting for Southwest and Frontier Airlines to open up for our dates!

Looking forward to passing the time with fellow March Travelers. We have never been during March, however pretty much ever other time of the year! AP holders.

Airline rezzies made today, only 3k left to pay and then we'll be on our way!!...........3/8-3/16 POR..........cannot wait!!!!!

You may already know this but Southwest opened up today!!!!

Thanks! Yes I just noticed... It is currently $477 per person on Southwest. So I may wait a few days and see if Frontier opens up. $477 about kills me! We will see. I wish I would have realized about the credit card promotion as I recently had to replace my laptop, IPad and several other things.. I still have more to replace (all got stolen) so I applied for the credit card today and will make those purchases on it and hopefully obtain two free roundtrip tickets!

We typically go to Disney in the fall/winter, so this will be a first for us. I haven't yet booked, but we'll be there 3/7 - 3/16 for a cheer competition. Suggesitons for which resort to stay in would be appreciated. We've stayed at Caribbean Beach, Port Orleans Riverside and FQ, ASM, and the last few years, Wilderness Lodge. I'm trying to limit what I spend, but my DH is pushing for Wilderness Lodge again.

Regardless...let the fun begin! I'm ready to go back to the happiest place on earth!!!
