Snow-Wigd and the Christmas Elves, a December pre-trip!

[wsushocker]

You have to promise not to tell anyone!

Don't trust her!​

 

[jillyb]

That's great news for everyone!!!

 

[wsushocker]

Where will you be Sumday night after Chef"s?
We're driving in all day that day, so you have to be kind about what we look like. I'm guessing we'll get to Orlando and our one night off-site stop around 6 maybe. We could throw our things in the room and then drive over to SSR or DTD. I'll finalize that with Jill and you check with Shocker. I don't want to interfere on your last night at Disney World.

That was very, very funny!

 

[H20DogsNDisney]

Only 7 days until you leave for WDW Have a great time! since I haven't been able to keep up with your PTR do to work I can't believe thats all you have left!

 

[wigdoutdismom]

Your plans look great! I think you should def. book the sleigh ride!

Now that we are home from the basketball tourney, I think I'll try to look into that sleigh ride.

Oh I think I misunderstood...you are using points for yourself and letting LL/Jen use some points?

How lucky you know the mystery ADR....but I guess you do deserve it.

The point dilemma worked out very well. We got 3 extra nights and Jen and Leslie get to stay at POFQ then move over to SSR for their last 2 nights. See? Win/Win

Oh no, don't you worry one bit about our last night at Disney. We MUST meet up. I think DTD would be fun. It won't take us any time at all to get there from SSR.
Meeting you all is just another one of the bonuses that our extra 3 nights brings!
Hmmmmm, maybe we should plan a DTD DISmeet for our friends that will be down at that time.....

WOOT!!!!!

Congratulats Anita!!!! I'm so excited for you and so excited for me and Leslie!!!!! What a photo finish!!!!!! Love your plans and I think a sleighride would be just lovely!!!!!!

I'm very excited about SSR...THANK YOU ANITA AND MARC!!!!

Lots of excitement around here! Isn't it fun?!? Sometimes things just work out and this was one of those times.

What great news!!! Extra nights for you, Anita, and Jen and LL get to stay at SSR!

You will be leaving before you know it!

This is going to be a hectic week but just knowing that this time next week....

JEN! We didn't tell anyone yet!! And you think I'm bad about spilling the beans!

Anita, I think the sleigh ride would be awesome. I've heard that the Christmas Lights at Ft. Wilderness are just awesome.

You two and your bean spilling.....
I saw the Samantha Brown Christmas Disney special and she took the sleigh ride...
It looked fun! I just need to figure out where to get the information.

Your plans look amazing! So much fun!! We overlap in a couple of places:

Sunday arrive:
DIS meet for Osbourne Lights
Magic Kingdom Spectro and Wishes

Monday:
Epcot
Wishes Cruise (I can't wait!!! It's still a surprise for Courtney.)

Wednesday:
DHS


E-ticket is fun. It has maps, park hours, itinerary, a DVC point calculator, and DISboards access. The only thing is that I can't get it to remember my ADR #s which was one of my plans for it. Oh welll...

I can't believe how close we are!!!

1 WEEK FROM TODAY!

It's amazing that it's almost our turn to go. The kids still don't have a clue about the cruise.
I'm having fun with the e-ticket app...
Can't wait to see you Sunday night. We just need to decide on the meeting spot. I have a friend that is a CM, I'll ask her where she thinks we should meet.

Well see the difference is...I have told you not to tell anyone anything...I was never told it was a secret LOL!!!!! You have to let me know these things ahead of time LOL

I think I did the first of the blabbing.....

Pfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft!

Somehow I knew that would be your response....

Oh, one week!
Yay! On more nights!!
Your plans sound great.
You got some great ADRs too.

This week is going to go so fast, I just hope that I can keep up!

 

[wigdoutdismom]

Don't trust her!​

I didn't tell...

That's great news for everyone!!!

I sure was! We had been told more than once that there wasn't anything available for the nights we wanted, but we kept calling back and someone must have canceled....

That was very, very funny!

He's just happy to be along for the ride!

Only 7 days until you leave for WDW Have a great time! since I haven't been able to keep up with your PTR do to work I can't believe thats all you have left!

Hi Hallie!
We are getting very close to our trip. I have sooooo much to do!

 

[PrincessCaitlin]

Hi
I am just catching up on your pre trip report

I am loving it but I am really behind!

I am not sure if anyone said anything but when it's cold at disney they turn off the bigger water guns? on splash mountain so you don't get as wet.

I just wanted to tell you because I really want to see a picture with that Minnie shower cap on

Welcome to the thread! Thanks for joining us!

 

[Happydog]

WOW!!!!

I just get back on DIS and find out that you got your points and you are going to be there for a few extra days afterall, YAY to you congrats!!! HOw excitiing!!! That is Disney Magic

I saw you were checking into the sleigh ride -- I booked it through the Dining line -- or they patched me over somewhere else to make the reservation, it was the same place I reserved the pirate cruise last summer... They have both the sleigh and the carriage...

I am seriously not going to sleep this week!

Oh No! You must get some sleep....
Actually I feel the same way though....
So why am I sitting here on the computer?

We did check on the sleigh ride. We wanted to go on Christmas Day/Night but there weren't any times available. We could have booked it for the 26th but I really want to go to Magic Kingdom that night.
So I think the sleigh ride will have to wait until next year...

 

[PrincessCaitlin]

Welcome to the thread! Thanks for joining us!

I think I can make that promise when I went last year they had them turned off so I only got a little splash like a couple drops and my mom and I had on our ponchos and felt silly afterwards
Just make sure to ask the CMs and watch the people coming off the ride

Oh I will get SOME sleep !!! We are going on the 26th!! AND to MK!!! WE are doing the HDDR that night, the 5pm show, the sleigh ride, then taking the boat from WL to MK that evening for a bit. MK is our last night too... it has to be that way for me.... Of course the final night won't be fun, but boy this coming week is going to be amazing... I am so excited for all of us traveling this holiday season!!

 

[SoonerGirl]

Also thinking about possibly booking the sleigh ride at Ft. Wilderness on one of our extra nights....

We're doing this Christmas day - I can't wait!!

Congrats on the extra days!! AND on being able to add ADRs this close - got some pixie dust there for sure!

It looks like our park days match up some too. Sunday we'll be going to the MK EMHs, of course you all may to headed back to the hotel to crash before we even get there! But, we'll be at Epcot Monday, The Studios on Wednesday & Epcot for the Candlelight Processional on Christmas Eve - surely in all that we can have a chance to meet up!

 

[MaryAz]

Glad it worked out for everyone. You better get packing!!
