****Official May 2012 Thread**** ALMOST TIME TO LEAVE!!

I need to go to sleep but I'm too excited to sleep. The alarm is ringing at 4:30am for a 6:30am flight. Good thing the airport is only 20 minutes away.
 
Count me in too 1 week from today 6am flight need to leave at 4 am to get to airport. I will probably just stay up still packing!

11 days and I'll be getting up at 4 am to start my drive.

I live in South Florida, so I want to beat the 3 rush hours I'd otherwise have to drive through. After West Palm Beach, I'll stop for breakfast and then take my time the rest of the way.
 
Just checking in again... yesterday we did Magic Kingdom rope drop... Dumbo was not working :( but we rode Barnstormer. DD3 loved it, DS5 screamed and cried :confused3 We did a lot within the first few hours... Peter Pan's Flight, Winnie the Pooh, Snow White... headed over to Space Mountain and that was not running either (in the process of being fixed) so then we went over to the Tiki Room & Pirates before having lunch at The Plaza. After lunch we staked out a spot on Main Street to watch the parade. Love bugs were HORRIBLE! Everywhere... seriously, just terrible! The news channel said yesterday was the hottest day of the year so far.. yippee :yay: NOT! Then we met Mickey & Minnie and then headed over to the Poly for our Ohana's dinner. My daughter spiked a really high fever right when we sat down to eat so she refused to eat anything and my son was just being flat out stubborn. DH came to get them (he wasn't eating with us) so it was just me and my MIL. They didn't charge for the kids (thank goodness!) Then we headed back to the hotel... watched Illuminations from our bedroom window and went to sleep.

Today is Hollywood Studios day... going to have breakfast at Hollywood & Vine before park opening... trying out Jedi Training for the first time, Toy Story Mania OF COURSE!!! :woohoo:... it will be my first time on Rocknrollercoaster today and we're all going on Tower of Terror for the first time :sad2: Staying for Fantasmic tonight too... gonna be a long, hot one!

That makes 3 of us, plane leaves logan at 6:25 am. on the 18th. Cant wait:woohoo:
 

SOOOOOON... Tomorrow we have to finish packing! Sadly, someone at my job got fired last night, so I'm going to be working all his hours right until we leave! And I probably have to train a new person. YAY! Atleast it'll make the week go fast, lol.
 
Is it just me? or is anyone else still changing their ADR's???

Each time I think it looks good................I remember a different place I wanted to try!!!

We were doing that a lot in the beginning... 8 people trying to pick 7 places to eat. FUN FUN FUN. But in the end, we decided to just pick the ones we thought looked good, and not stress over it. There's more important things to do!
 
One week from right now we will be waiting to board our 12:10 flight!
So excited!!

I just cancelled one and made another. I think my may be done now, I hope :)
 
16 days!

Just wrote down some hotels to stay at on the drive down and took our change jar to the bank to cash. We'll probably start getting things together sometime this weekend. :goodvibes
 
We just changed a couple ADRs this weekend. We are still undecided about a couple, so we may continue to change.

We bought a few more things for the trip this weekend. The patterns are all cut out for the girls' outfits. I just have to get sewing.

We did have an unfortunate event happen the other day. We were at the mall with my youngest and she pushed down on the plastic footrest on her stroller and it snapped, so we are now looking for a new stroller. Not really what I wanted to buy right before vacation, but we need it, so we'll be out stroller shopping for the next week or so.
 
20 days until my next trip! Woo hoo!! :cool1:

Know what I love about the DIS? All you crazy people who are as excited about YOUR trips as I am about MINE!

How exciting is this: I'm pretty sure that I'll be taking my nephew (age 16) to WDW in June; and my girlfriend says she'd really like to see WDW for Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party!

3 trips to WDW in 2012?!? I'm trying to make it there in September for my birthday.. and make it an even 4! I'm the luckiest guy on the planet!

Mike.
 
Finally finished packing (more or less). Just finished checking in for my flight tomorrow. In 24 hours, I will be in WDW! :cool1:
 
Twenty days to do until Disney....I started counting around 100 and I bet the last 20 goes the slowest....:hourglass...

So does any one else pack a whole suitcase of snacks, breakfast foods and meats in to one suitcase, than use that suitcase for that disney merch on the way back?....What park/ride will be the first that you ride....

Me....umm RnRc...I haven't been to DHS since like 2002

lol me! well not meat, but snacks/breakfast. Is that not normal? ;)
 
Leaving in 12 days. Kids still don't know. My wife wants to tell them so she can pack but I really wanted this to be a last minute surprise. Oh well, they'll still be surprised.

My wife made all of ours for lunch time. I kinda wish at least one or two were at dinner and thought about changing but didn't think anything would be available.
