so i'm *finally* finished making all my ADRs and plans for our 5-year anniversary WDW trip in may. we're just going for a short 4-night stay, but i think that's all we need (and it's all we can afford this year!). we don't have any kids, so i don't think it will take us as long to do things as a family who has children. anyway, i wanted to post my trip details so i could get the DIS crowd's expert opinion on my trip....any advice, tips, etc. would be appreciated. i haven't been since '92 and my DH hasn't been since before that, so it's been awhile!!! yeah, i know, tisk, tisk!!!
first of all, we have the MYW PH package plus dining. we're staying at the pop century hotel.
we live near atlanta and we're leaving (driving) saturday afternoon, may 5th, and driving to the gainesville, florida area to spend the night.
we're checking in when we get to WDW sunday morning (and by "checking in" i mean getting our tickets - i realize we won't be getting our room until later), eating lunch at the POP food court and heading to MGM. i didn't want to eat lunch at MGM b/c all the CS places don't look too appetizing! and i've heard good things about our food court. i wanted to go to MGM on sunday because my DH is an avid SW fan and i had heard that SWW were in may. i found out recently that they start the 3rd weekend of may, so that idea went down the drain. but i'd already made our TS reservations at Sci-Fi so i didn't want to change everything. we're looking forward to fantasmic, too! plus MK has extra magic hours that night so if we feel up to it we'll go over there for a couple of late-night rides.
monday we're hitting MK all day. we're having our CS meal either at pecos bill or pinnocchio village haus and then we have reservations at kona cafe for our TS meal (just hopping on the monorail for that, then going back to MK). can't wait for wishes!
tuesday we're going to epcot. we have lunch reservations at le cellier for our TS that day. i think we'll be done with epcot relatively quickly so we're planning on going to DTD/PI that night and eating at wolfgang puck's express for our CS.
wednesday is animal kingdom. we're planning on eating at either pizzafari or restaurantosaurus for our CS. we're going to CG that night for our last night's dinner at 8:00. the fireworks at MK are at 9:00 that night, so we'll be able to see them from CG. can't wait for that meal!
that's it! we're leaving thursday so we can visit an old friend in tallahassee on the way home. let me know any thoughts/tips! thanks!
by the way, i seriously am so excited that it's hard for me to sleep....and i have over 3 months to go!!!!!!!!
