The *Official* February 2011 Thread - Happy Dance Time...The Park Hours Are Out!

[Shunasee]

I would feel just like you do!! Hang in there!

I have to say, though, I'm way jealous of your son. I'm guessing he's going to PAX? I would so love to be there!!

That is where he is going!

We are lucky enough to live in Socal, so he does not have to travel for SD Comicon (which we all go to) or for Blizzcon (he is a WOW player), so those dont require travel.

Thanks for the support.. and now back to disney related stuff.

So I am thinking of adding another day onto the end of our trip to make our dates the 6-16. I am thinking that with a 10:15 am breakfast ADR we would get out to late on the 15th to get to far from Florida. So if we stay an extra day it will allow us to get up early and leave. Besides another day at a Disney Park is never a bad thing

I am also torn about whether to add park hoppers or not. We had them last September and never used them.

 

[lamb616]

i was actually just laying in bed this a.m. thinking that I'm going to call & remove the hoppers from our tix. According to the itinerary I have planned, I don't even have any hopping planned, but I figured I'd get them just in case a park is super busy or the kids wanted to go back to something one night.................. but now that I know it's easy to add it while there, I'd rather save the $200 upfront and then pay it once I'm there *IF* I know for sure we're going to use it.

[BethR9]

I've never been at V-Day so I can't help you out. I'll be in Epcot on V-Day next year though!

 

[BethR9]

Where is everyone today???

Excitement wearing off? Nothing to plan?

 

[lilandvisma]

I've been busy with DD#2, her eardrum perforated and we are having some problems with her other ear now so onto the ENT we will go I've had a ton of appointments this week as well. Also with school starting up next week for us I'm trying to make sure everything will be all set and ready to go with that too!

 

[Shunasee]

I keep looking over our schedule and wanting to tweek it. We have our ADR's and I told DH I was not going to change anything. However, I would really like to hit the Wishes Dessert Party, as long as they have it while we are there.

We were not impressed with AK, but I am thinking it was the fact that it was July and HOT and croweded, so we really didnt get to experience the park like we did the others. Here is our schedule to date (as far as parks)

2/13 Magic Kingdom (after we arrive)
2/14 Epcot
2/15 Animal Kingdom
2/16 Epcot
2/17 Hollywood Studios
2/18 Epcot
2/19 Magic Kingdom (before we leave early evening)

I know its a ton of Epcot, I am not allowed to change those days per DH.

I was thinking of instead of hitting AK on 2/15, going to the MK and doing wishes. I will have to change our ADR and maybe make that day a breakfast instead of a dinner.

Well?

 

[lamb616]

i think now that we all made our ADRs, there's nothing more to plan right now. A couple more months and we'll be obsessing over our touring plans.

Oh my gosh. Hope she's ok, sounds painful.

Lamb - Yay for dropping hoppers. Great way to save money if you don't think you'll use them !

Didn't feel like planning once DH got laid off again, but he found out today he is hired so I can be excited about Disney again!!!!

He better not get laid off again until after Disney (or I suppose the week before would be ok..) This roller coaster of emotion is making me batty.

I am looking forward to fall this year. Not just because this heat wave is making me very sick of summer, but because I want to pack away the summer clothes directly into their disney bags

 

[Gina]

Sorry I haven't posted - just been so dang busy!! Soooooo looking forward to the long weekend!

I'm still just as excited about planning... Wonder if we'll have to wait 'til the first of the year before they announce if the dessert party will be carried over into 2011? Hope we know sooner!

Mandy ~ How is your little one? I feel so bad for her -- ear pain is AWFUL. Hope she's feeling better very very soon!

I've never been at V-Day so I can't help you out. I'll be in Epcot on V-Day next year though!

Hey! We are going to be in Epcot on V-day too.

 

[MamaJessie]

My coffee today is in my refillable mug from 2006. It puts me in a Disney mood

So I talked to a cast member from a store yesterday and he said the incentives to reserve toy story 3 will be out by the 21st, so I think I will have our countdown party that weekend since I will be all amped up from visiting the Disney store this week. Which is your favorite Disney classic movie? Debating between which one to rent....

Lady and the Tramp
Fantasia (will a 3 year old sit through that?)
Dumbo
Pinocchio
Peter Pan
Robin Hood


Any suggestions?

 

[BethR9]

I think Alli is also going to be in Epcot on V-day (as are a bunch of other people)

Robin Hood! I still randomly yell about the house "1 o'clock and alls well".

Add me to the list of being at Epoct on V-day.

 

[kupperman]

Sounds like Epcot will be busy on Vday! We're gonna be there too!

 

[BethR9]

I'm hoping everyone is going to be eating at Epcot at a sit-down place and we'll only be doing counter service.

 

[kupperman]

Yeah. We're doing Chefs de France at 5pm. Maybe it will be less crowded at counter service. Good plan.

 

[Shunasee]

Has anyone done the Undiscovered Future World Tour?

I am thinking it might be interesting since my DH is devouring anything to do with Epcot. I would like to do the Segway Tour, but its not in the budget.

 

[Marlynmik]

We'll be at AK on V-day EMH in the am and it's just the way it ended up with all of our other park plans.

I'm on the DIS every day, now I'm planning the rides (trying to narrow down which FP I need first thing)

I'm also decided which CS places I want to hit, since all my TS ADRs are booked.

I'm also trying to find one of those famous Baggallini bags that everyone's raving about since I'm in Canada and they are hard to find here.
