**Official March 2017 Thread**

36 more days! And I got it into my head that I need to take a long hard look at the dining plan and see if maybe it might be cost effective. I think mostly I just want to do more Disney planning without having any real planning to do.

You can also start planning the next trip after this one.

I've already started my list of restaurants and activities for next year's trip!

Joining in! Our second trip to the world will be March 27-April 3 at Pop. Me, dd (15), and my fun loving mom. DH isn't a big enough Disney fan to make the trip from the west coast with us. We'll also be making a one day trip to Kennedy Space Center and the beach.

Joining in all the fun! We are about a month away!

DH and I are at POR March 10 - 16 and then headed to Canaveral to sail on the Wonder 16 - 19!

When planning my days, I always avoid extra magic hours since we are staying offsite.

Kind of along the same lines : Inadvertently I have already planned to go to Epcot on a day there will be a concert… Thinking about changing it around, but I've never been on a concert day, so maybe people will be more interested in the band then the rides for that time and the lines will be lower.

We will actually be doing Magic Kingdom as our first park, because my kids are constantly asking about "the castle", so for us, it's good to get that done first.

Thank you for your input! We've decided to still tour MK on 3/17 even with the EMH. It will only be me and DD19 so we can always do single rider and we are usually pretty fast and are able to weave through the crowd easily. Plus we do visit DL regularly so we get our yearly dose of the castle magic.

That makes a difference! We have 7 people to accommodate ! LOL

So am I the only one who just now figured out 3/17--my MK day--is St Patrick's day?! Will they be doing anything in the parks?

Just found this post! Yay!! We are March 4-11th at the GF! My best friend and her family also (unknowingly) booked a trip (staying offsite) at the same time so I'm excited as she's got smaller kids who get more excited than our nearly 12 year old.

I cannot wait!! Doesn't help that we didn't get above 0 here today...

Quick Weekend Trip for us!!

[GoonieBride]

March 11-19 with DS's high school band! Never been for Spring Break, so I'm super excited!

where is the HS band staying? Where and when are they playing? I used to be in band... great memories!

 

[Lsdolphin]

Just got both an ADR ROL dining package for 3/5 and a fast pass for another night for ROL

 

[wdwnut61]

Just booked Garden Rocks dining package for the Pointer Sisters.

I'm so excited and I just can't hide it

 

[jollygreen]

Just got FP for ROL on March 12!

 

[2Pirates2Princesses]

I was also able to book Tusker House pre-park opening breakfast ROL dining for the first show of the night. It was a little unnerving having to change around our planned AK day, fast passes, and dining reservations three weeks out but I am sure it will be worth it

Omg 18 more days!!! Kinda freaking out about all I have left to make for our trip but I'll get it done somehow haha

My 7 year old is in that skeptical question everything phase. We talked about which characters we wanted to meet last month and her eyes kinda lit up and she asked if Tinkerbell and her fairy friends would be there (she used to LOVE all the Tinkerbell movies). I said Tinkerbell is, but I don't think her friends will be. She asked if Tinkerbell will fly and I said no, I don't think she does. She declared she's a fake lol. When I told my cousin the story she reminded me that Tinkerbell DOES fly before Wishes! Is it weird that im super excited to surprise her with Tinkerbell flying so I can say "LOOK! She IS real!"
