Hey Jenny, I am definitely going to look out for you at Animal Kingdom. I bought a new t-shirt yesterday, which I will be wearing (you can see it here) so look out for me too

We have Kilimanjaro at 8.30-9.30 too and Expedition Everest 11-12 before Yak & Yeti at noon also. I don't see how we can fail to spot each other

Thursday we are going to MK for the new parade and to DTD in the evening, Friday (my daughter's 21st) we are at Epcot.

We are leaving in 9 days. I never really thought about using a FP for a parade.... We are going to MK twice so I am hopeful we will be ablt to see it once without a FP.

decided in the Arctic blast of January here in Indy to spring break it in DW. Great hotel deal, Grandma donated SW miles and I bought 3 day tickets... got all my ADRs but BOG and booked the FP+, magic bands even made it!
now just have to find the flip flops and DD7 and I will be doing the Happy dance March 29!

Hi Joh! I will probably have on something black (I just started laying clothes out). I am trying to color coordinate my outfits. My nails, however are orange with one yellow accent on each hand.
Your leopard tee is adorable! I will totally look for you.
We will be in Epcot Thursday and Friday, before we go home...thinking about that last day is already making me sad...
But, I'm very excited about the Flower and Garden Festival. That's why we are spending 2 days in Epcot.
Again, safe travels!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Much magic on your vacation too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We are excited about the F&G Festival too. There have been lots of pictures on the Disney Food Blog and Facebook and I cannot wait to see it for myself.

Hope you have a safe trip, enjoy the warm weather and a magical vacation.

Jumping in from the February 2014 group. Could someone who is there now (and staying on site) do me a favor? The bounceback offer information is in the Be Our Guest booklet that is in your room. It's toward the center of the booklet on a pull out poster thing.

Can you take a picture of the calendar part of the poster and either post it here or PM me and I can give you my cell phone number so you can text me?

Thanks in advance!

Amy

This is the current Bounceback with dates. Values aren't listed, but are available.

Sounds good! Have a great time...and remember, since its your first time, don't kill yourself trying to do everything. Your 4 year old and 10 month old will dictate a lot of that. One thing to keep in mind with your meals: both T-Rex and Whispering Canyon Cafe can be quite loud at times. I don't know if that's an issue with your kids, but do keep it in mind.

March 14th thru the 20th staying at WL. Cannot wait to take our granddaughter for her first time to WDW. We are so excited to do Cinderellas Royal Table as well as Chef Mickeys. We also have a pontoon reserved for Illuminations. We keep changing the date because of the weather but are quickly realizing we are not going to know anything until the few days before. Hope to see some Colorado people there, when I was at the shoe store in the mall they said I was the 3rd person there that day that was heading to WDW

 

[Misha5454]

We leave for Orlando in 7 days for a week stay. Spending 1st day at offsite hotel, going shopping around Orlando area. Next day check into A of A, only staying there 3 nights 4 days. Then checking into the dark side on site stay for 3 days 4 nights. Can't wait, I need to start packing.

We are leaving Australia on 17th and land in Florida on 17th! We are down to single digits now - I'm so excited! First time to WDW and my first time to the US!

Sounds like a fab trip you have planned. Try not to kill yourselves trying to do too much. Pretty much guaranteed you WILL be back

Hey, you arrive on my daughter's Birthday and leave on mine. We will be there until the 18th. Hope you have a fab trip. Enjoy the Illuminations Cruise, we did it a couple of years ago and it was an amazing experience. It is a fantastic way to see the fireworks.

We leave for Orlando in 7 days for a week stay. Spending 1st day at offsite hotel, going shopping around Orlando area. Next day check into A of A, only staying there 3 nights 4 days. Then checking into the dark side on site stay for 3 days 4 nights. Can't wait, I need to start packing.

We are hoping to go and look around Art of Animation while we are at Disney World - it looks like a great resort. Have fun

Wow, how long is the flight from Australia. Presumably the time difference allows you to leave and arrive on the same day? It's nearly 10 hours for us from the UK. Hope you enjoy your first US trip

One week out! Going to buy our travel sized toiletries and things today. My daughter is already packed! I'm ready for sunshine and high 70s low 80s. This winter has really been a bummer, weather wise.

I also want to pre-apologize to any of you traveling between the 17th and the 22nd, particularly anyone else staying at the Wilderness Lodge during that time frame, for my husband's possibly rather non-magical behavior. Dr.Jekyll/Mr. Hyde insisted on joining us again this trip. I'm preparing another trip report for this one.
