Just when I got used to sitting tight. Man, I've been waiting for this for months!! And, of course, I will be away from my computer all day tomorrow while I'm on a trip to the capital with a group of 5th graders!! Aarghh! I'll be checking iTunes late tomorrow night for sure.
The countdown is moving quickly now! This month is our "passport" month, I think. We've been debating whether to get them or not, but it just makes sense overall. It's along the same lines as trip insurance for a closed end cruise like this.
I just booked our pre- and post-cruise hotels. We're staying at Country Inn and Suites on Saturday night before the cruise. Since we already have 2 "real" Disney trips planned this year (Marathon Weekend we were at GF and last week of August we'll be at BC), I decided to try something completely different and booked a Cabin at Fort Wilderness. I'm a little worried that my non-outdoorsy husband is going to hate it but I'm excited. I figure that with the big 4th of July weekend crowds, we'll enjoy spending most of our time at Fort Wilderness and avoiding the parks (we have APs so it's no big deal to go to the park for a few hours or not at all).
Please tell me I didn't make a huge mistake!!!!
I think that's a fabulous idea, Amanda. I was toying with that myself...
Hope your husband loves it as much as you will.
Welcome aboard, TravisX4. Can't wait to meet you and all our fellow cruisers! We're really starting to make some headway in this countdown.
We are also getting serious about countdown now. We are staying at the country inn and suites again the night before the cruise and are tent camping at the fort for 2 nights after. We decided on deluxe dinning since it is just DH & I.
We are staying at BLT for two nights prior to the cruise and then heading over the BWV after the cruise. We also have annual passes so will take it easy during the heat of the day. My goal is to see the fireworks on the 3rd of July before heading home on the 4th.
