Okay, so middle school is rough, hormones suck, and I think my princess and I need a Disney fix... we were going to wait till Star Wars land is done... but really, there is no such thing as too many Disney trips.
So here is where I am at... we need a quick fix trip. Flying out of Oregon landing around 9:30 at LGB on the Thursday after Halloween... I already decided that we would skip all Halloween time since I didn't get this brainstorm before the party tix sold out... so arriving 11/2, drop stuff off at the hotel and be in the parks around 10:30. Been there, done that, and know we can do it in an hour lol. Then we would have that day... why are park hours not posted yet?! Until... 8? 9 pm? I guess we will see. And then Friday... flight out at 7:45 pm I think... we won't check bags... so I feel we could stay in the parks till 5. So that's a good day too.
So here is where I am stuck. I have never done 2 Day park hoppers. And I have never stayed off site. But if I am doing this down and dirty... then that means 2 days and off site. So no MM for us. We can deal with that, we will just start with DCA if MM is on Friday, but heck I don't even know if it is on Friday or not. I am kinda guessing no fireworks on a Thursday. But what about F! Do they still do dinner packages? We love blue bayou, so the F! Dinner was a no brainer. Food and good seats. Otherwise, I don't have any big desires for character meals or other ressies... we need to eat corn dogs and Matterhorn macaroons and tigger tails. Seriously girl bonding time.
What am I missing? The new FP app thing? A must do? We usually work the FPs pretty hard.
Where should we stay? Want to be close... we are used to PP and that walk, cutting thru GCH... part of me wants to splurge and do GCH since it is just one night... I am soooo spoiled! But not sure if that would get me any perks, maybe MM on Friday?
Anything I didn't think of? I figure crowds will be low... Halloween is over. But may still have stragglers that came in that week.
Tia!
