PRE-TRiP REPORT! July 6th - 15th! :D

[jessaboo]

This is my first pre-trip report.
Ever.

So bare with me?
THANKS!

-------------------------------
First off, to make things easier, here's our 'cast'.

Me - Jessica, I'm 18, and I'm thinking of this as a birthday trip, or so my aunt says.

Nunny - Wendy. My aunt. Mother of one awesome kid. The big planner for the trip, and also a newfound Disney Addict.

Maggie - Nun's daughter, 4, and IT'S HER FIRST TRIP TO DISNEY EVER! My favorite cousin, and a dancer, like me!


Beth - Maggie's old babysitter. Wife, and mother of 2.

Beth's DH - I forget his name to be honest, but I heard he's a trip.

Ashely - 4, Beth's DD, and she's in Maggie's dance classes.

And finally, Beth's DS. I forget his name too, but he's cute.
----------------------------------------------

We've been planning this trip for quite a while, and honestly, it couldn't come fast enough. I know I'll say that, then it'll come and go like it was lightspeed. But I want it NOW.

The first time I went to Disney, I was dancing with our dance studio for the Magic Music Days thing. It was fun, until I reinjured my hamstring on the FIRST RIDE OF THE TRIP. We were there for 9 days! It sucked. But the experience was amazing.


So far, what I can remember, we have our park schedule done, and I know where we're staying.

OH YEAH, AND WE GET A CINDERELLA CHARACTER BREAKFAST! BOOYAH.


I'll keep updating this.


THANKS FOR SUBSCRIBING?!

You'll be there almost the same time as me. I'll be there July 8th - 15th...

 

[jessaboo]

Really?!?

Who all is going with you?






------------------------------
Agh, yeah and I have to go on my trip with a fresh root canal!

 

[silverangel879]

Only my DB and me...we'll be staying @ AKL

 

[jessaboo]

So, I've been looking online for the best offers of things I could use while I'm in WDW. Like CVS, Wwalgreens, you know, little things. I've also been looking forward to bikini shopping here soon, becuase I've lost some weight, and I've started to get thinner and to not fit into my old one.

I've been thinking about what we're going to do while I'm there. I mean, I am there babysitting for a few nights, but I'm also there for my 18th fabulous birthday with the mouse. We're planning on going to MK, AK, and Downtown Disney. I mean, there will be other places we go, but those are the main ones I know of.


I've asked my aunt about the Kitchen Sink Sundae. Hopefully she agrees to it. I've also asked about EPCOT, but they're thinking because of the little ones, they won't really like it. But thats where all the awesome rollercoasters are.

My list of things to attempt:
Splash Mountain
Space Mountain
FANTASMIC!
Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin
It's a Small World
Spectromagic
DOLE WHIP!


A whole bunch more, but my aunt insists on not seeing 'It's Tough To Be Aa Bug' only for the fact that she's read and heard from people that it's a total nightmare.

Meh, I'm not sure, but I'm really really REALLY pumped for this trip.


Oh yeah, Matt is Beth's husbands name, and Cade is her son's name.
Random, but it was really bugging me.









Still don't have a date for FANTASMIC though. :[

Hi there!! Epcot isn't just for Adults. My kids loved it when they were little. There aren't any rollercoasters there though!! They have the Nemo ride, Soarin, Imagination and Test track. The kids love those. Also around World Showcase they have kidcot stations. I think many people think it is just for Adults. Epcot is my family's favorite park!!

 

[jessaboo]

Well, I know that, but test track, mission space, and all those other things are my favorite rides.


I love your TR.

 

[ILMICKEY]

Well thank you!! And thanks for stopping by.

16.

A whole sixteen days until I leave with the whole fam damily to the greatest, most magical place on Earth. It's so exciting to know that in about two weeks, I'm leaving to have a vacation for my birthday. I cannot wait.


I bought a few things, but I haven't got pictures yet.

I bought a new bathing suit, which I have already tried out.
And a few other things.


I'm dying with this anticipation thing.




How did you deal with your waiting?

 

[Avivasmom]

How exciting 16 more days!!!

My DD is 6 1/2 and has a hard time waiting too. But we just count down the days or for the past few trips did not tell her till we were on the way there. We live 3 hrs and 15 minutes away.

Have fun planning!

Hey, I'm new to the Disboards...my sister told me I should join since I'm obsessed with everything involving Disney. Anyway, we are going to be going on our summer vacation to Disney World once again, and this year its going to be on July 7th-July 14th, so it's pretty similar to the times you're gonna be there. We're from Georgia

Who's going:
1. Me (Chris- I'm 20 years old as of May, and i'm planning on working for Disney(Buena Vista pictures) after I am finished with college in a few years)
2. I'm bringing along 2 of my best friends, so they can experience the magic I've experienced all throughout my childhood
3. My older sister and her husband
4. And of course, my parents

We just received our 6-day park hopper passes in the mail yesterday, and I've gotta say, I am extremely stoked about the upcoming trip..only 17 more days to go for me.

Thats so awesome, that's going to be fun. The counting down part is the worst part for me, and then the vacation just goes so fast, soon enough I'll be driving back home sunburnt. :]


Have fun with your planning, let me know how things go!
You should write a trip repot.

 

[jessaboo]

It's exactly seven days before my trip begins.


This is what my intineray looks like.

Friday 6th [stay with Beth and the kids at her house]
Saturday 7th [drive to Jacksonville]
Sunday 8th [ARRIVE AT WESTGATE LAKES!]

I don't know the rest, but I'm thinking it'll be something awesome.


OT, but does this make me a baby!?
I cried when I saw this.

[ILMICKEY]

You go ahead and cry girl!!

I watched that on Christmas morning and my husband and sons thought I was a FREAK!!

Pooh on them!

We are girls, we understand each other and we totally "get" Disney!!
