The "3882 days between WDW visits is just insane" PTR

No, now I'm jealous!!!

With all the problems we are having with Tyler's school and teachers, I so very much wish I hadn't taken the easy way out once again and I had kept with my homeschooling plans...Tyler would have been so much better of fthat way! Sounds like your gang is doing great with it!

my oldest was in school til 6th grade..then home til part way thru 9th then back home part way thru 10th.. my little ones will ( God Willing) never step foot in a school til college!

 

[justakrazymom]

Oh my I am overwhelmed!!

I just sat down and did a page per day.. park hours, EMH's and TP's ratings..

I KNOW Day 1,days 10 and day 5.. because each of those is a "special" day.. but beyond that I am so lost..

 

[justakrazymom]

Ok I sat.. I have some plans now!!!

Ok here's what i have so far:
8/19 bright and early arrive, wait for my oldest and my mother to get here on Amtrak

8/19 MK Crystal Palace for dinner
8/20 AK
8/21 Epcot
8/22 DHS Sci Fi for Lunch
8/23 Hoop Dee Doo for Noah's birthday
8/24 MK ( Grand Gathering at Tony's is avail..if not CS)( potentially HS instead of 8/27)
8/25 Epcot Coral Reef
8/26 AK Safari Breakfast at Tusker House
8/27 HS ( potentially MK for GG)
8/28 MK My birthday.. probably Chef Mickey's for dinner

I still need one park for the 23rd.. and then 2/3 more TS ADR's!!!

Looks good to me! You've got three restaurants I've never been to- Coral Reef, Tusker House, and Chef Mickeys. I've always wanted to go to Coral Reef, just because it looks so cool inside. Chef Mickey's seems like it would be great for kids. At least, kids who are older than mine are. I would hate to spend all that money for a meal and have someone be scared of the characters.

2/3 more TS ADRs, that should be easy. Got any leading contenders?

[justakrazymom]

Ok big doings.. Yesterday I paid off reservation 1.. and today I booked flights for my oldest and my mother ( was $120 cheaper than taking the train).. super excited!!!

 

[tyandskyesmom]

 

[PirateKate]

Congratulations on paying for one reservation! It's always so exciting to have it all paid for.

Oh and airfare for less than taking the train is awesome, too!

 

[justakrazymom]

Well I snagged awesome flights for Noah and my mother.. cheaper than taking the train right.. then Noah's girlfriend found out she can go with us.. so her parents got her tickets on the same flights.. yeppie! So today i called and added her to our reservation...then I added ME info for the two kids and my mom.... now my all paid for ressie has a balance again..lol..but it's not mine to pay so...
