Pssst! Over here Who is going in August

[Danauk]

There's not much else to plan. I do have to go get some lime green mickey heads. My friends will think I'm crazy and dorky, but I'll still do it. Anyone else going to wear the LGMH's?

We can't get the lime green Mickey heads in the UK, but over on the UK board we have made our own lime green Mickey heads. They have the Union Jack as a Mickey head in the centre of a lime green Mickey and they have our Dis board names on. My bags will have one of those on!! Oh and I am taking with me one of the Dis boards unofficial mascots, one of the lime green crocs with me this trip. So if you see an English lady taking pictures with a lime green croc that has a lime green Mickey on that will be me! Make sure you come over and say Hi.

Myself, DH, DS9 & DS7 will be there from August 10th-17th. This is our first trip to Disneyland. Taking a break from Disney World and trying Disneyland. We are staying at the DLH. I am looking forward to taking my kids on TOT for their first time. Also looking forward to Matterhorn Bobsleds, Indiana Jones Adventure, Screamin(kids first time on upside down coaster). We are all going to San Diego for the day to see the Padres. Stopping by the La Jolla Children's Pool. DH & DS9 are also going to 2 L.A. Dodgers games and 1 Anaheim Angels game. My DH likes visiting different stadiums. I can't believe it's only 5 weeks away. Hope everyone has a great time on their trips.

Yay!!! We are right there with you!!! First time to DL and our first Repo trip! I don't know what to see yet, but boy am I reading the Unofficial Guide cover to cover!!! My DD6 is sooooooooo excited to see Sleeping Beauty's Castle!

 

[SoonerGirl]

We'll be there from August 3rd till August 7th for what is basically our first trip! We went for one day a few years ago, but it was on New Years Eve and it was so crowded that we were miserable so I really don't count that as a trip at all.

I'm so excited, I can't wait!

 

[jusmom]

Only a little over 1 month to go ...can't wait for fun with the whole family, (right Disneyanajc )

 

[Pooh_Friend#1]

We really didn't make any plans. I am usually a planning addict, but since it is our Honeymoon we didn't want to have a time where we had to be somewhere so we are just going with the flow.

 

[oklamomof4boys]

Hey SoonerGirl- another Okie there at the same time! Where in Oklahoma are you from?

VP called while we were gone over the weekend- they got our Fantasmic reserved seating for us! Yea!

You should come over and check out the Cruise Meet (capt. jack's repo thread) in the Disney Cruise Forum. Lots of DIS people going and lots of activities planned.

[disfreaks]

We will be staying at the GC on DVC points from Aug. 13-17, then on to the Magic to bring her back to Florida. We have been to DL many times, but lately to WDW more. No dining plans yet, but I need to do those. We plan to eat at Storytellers and the winery restaurant. (I can never remember the name but it always seems to have a nice breeze and we enjoy eating outside. We even saw the Block Party Bash go by a couple of weeks ago. Other than that, counter service. Our favorite rides are TOT, California Screamin, Matterhorn, Autopia, TMRR, and Splash Mountain. DD10 wants to "hunt" for Indy, and we would like to try Nemo Subs.

This will be our first time staying onsite. We have always stayed at the HoJo, so this should be fun. My DD13 is even missing the last day of cheer camp to go to DL. (We had already picked the dates we were going before the camp dates were picked).

The last couple of times we went in August, the crowds weren't bad. Some schools actually start back up the first full week of August, and some of the CM's said that with Homeschooling and year round school, they don't seem to have as much of a crowd issue in summer. Anyway, we will be heading back to the pool around 2 or 3, then back to the park around 5 or so. It works well for us. We can't wait!

[SNOWHITE7]

We are going August 11-21 staying at Paradise Pier using our DVC points then on to New York for 4 nights. We have been to WDW lots of times but this is our first trip to anywhere else in the US so we want to visit Hollywood, Universal and some of the other local attractions as well as the Disney parks. Looking forward to seeing the original park which I always dreamed of visiting as a child but never could.

We want to try out all the rides which aren't at WDW as well as our favourites TOT, Splash Mountain, POTC and Soarin. Like most others we will take a break by the pool if the heat gets too much in the afternoon.

 

[SoonerGirl]

Hey SoonerGirl- another Okie there at the same time! Where in Oklahoma are you from?

VP called while we were gone over the weekend- they got our Fantasmic reserved seating for us! Yea!

We live in Moore, how about you?

I'm jealous your doing the Fantasmic reserved seating - I tried to talk DH into it, but he wouldn't go for it

 

[DisneyLover4Ever!]

I'm so excited! My fam has just decided to spend an extra day at Disneyland so I (and IASWAM) will be at the park August 9th-16th!

I'm so excited-woo-I just can't hide it!
