I admit to have washed stuff, and it's now in a pile.

Still have 58 days to go!!!

We'll pack the night before we leave, or rush around the morning we leave. If we forget something, it just gives us an excuse to buy something there - a souvenir of the trip that we actually probably need in our daily life.

I totally have a few things that I have either bought for my trip, or that I know I won't wear before it inside my suitcase. At least I know I won't forget them!

 

[Rickat96]

So far I have:

Ordered Disney nail decals for the 5 ladies going. They will have a Disney Niall night the day before the trip.

Made a small 1st aid kit including body glide, neosporan, allergy medicine, band aids etc.

Dusted off the luggage. Set in spare room.

My grandsons first trip, ordered a Florida license plate with his name on it for his stroller. Picked up a battery light set for his stroller to light up at night.

And. More!

I have a few things that are in a nice pile on my bureau to pack. I haven't really started though. I really should - it may help the stress that will be March

No packing yet, but had my boys try on their shorts to see if they still fit....and they don't. So we will be going shopping for them and probably some more star wars t-shirts. I tend to be a last min packer, but I have my list made!

We have a day during the week prior to the trip we designated as a day to pack for the trip.

I also bought new tooth brushes and such for the trip, so we leave the house set up for when we return. Less hassle to find everything.

I just booked a solo trip today. I have never done this before and I am so excited. I just got a new camera so I can't wait to play with it. I will be going April 10-13th staying at Pop. I am looking forward to the F&G Festival. I won't tell the kids where I am going until after I get back. I kind of feel guilty but we are doing a big trip next year with family and we are also visiting Universal for the first time. If anyone has done a solo trip I would love your thoughts on how it was.

Tonight's the night! Our 60-day window opens at midnight, but now I'm starting to second-guess the itinerary I had put together, considering swapping parks around for different days/times, and I feel SO unprepared to choose our FPs. This will be our first time using parkhopper tickets, so I'm trying to take advantage of those as well as follow the recommendations of the EasyWDW crowd calendar (without messing up any "critical" ADRs that we've already made, like an 8:00am CP!). It's hard to plan our AK day(s) without knowing the details of ROL, Tiffins, and the nighttime safari, though! We also changed our flight to come in earlier on our arrival day, and now plan to spend that afternoon and evening at DHS, which will add a full break day in the middle of our trip (unless we add a day to our tickets while we're there). Despite the current chaotic state of my plans, I cannot wait for our trip to get here!

Tonight at midnight I get to pick our FP+ and even though I have spent a ton of time planning I still feel unprepared! I am probably over thinking the whole trip...no matter what happens we will still be at Disney though!! It will all work out!
