***The Official June 2016 Thread***

I know it's still too far out and I should stop looking at the weather....BUT the weather forecast is NOT improving! We arrive in Orlando on Monday and have water park days M-W. Move to AKL on Thursday and first day in the parks on Friday. Every Single Day is showing thunderstorms. :(
 
21 days until we leave. Up until 2 weeks ago I didn’t think we’d be going to Disney again until next year. We just planned a few short 3 or 4 day trips this summer around New England. I started joking with my wife about going to Disney instead of a 4 day trip to the cape. Somehow by the end of the day we had booked the flight and a stay at Pop Century. DD4 doesn’t know, we went to Disney last summer and she can’t wait to go back, we’re going to tell her the day we’re going.

Even though we started late we were able to get FP for everything we wanted. Can’t wait to see the new Soarin’ and the new Star Wars fireworks. We’ve got the dessert party booked for opening night of the fireworks.

It almost always will show storms at this time of year. That doesn't usually mean hours of rain but a quick drench. I wouldn't change plans unless a hurricane is involved. Don't sweat it. :D
 
12 more days until arrival! Made 3 shirts last night for me. We're AP holders, so I paid my room in full today. Got an email from Alamo on last minute deals, rebooked my rental car and saved some $$. Went over my packing list and made my list to stop at the grocery store on the way to the resort. I'll try to start sneak packing this weekend. DD still has no clue :flower1:
 
I'm a little late to the party (and new to the boards!). This will be my 2nd WDW trip. Joining me and my daughters (8 & 9) is my boyfriend and his daughters (7 & 10) June 5-11.

We are staying in a suite at AoA.
Monday: MK, ADR at CRT 8:25am, hoping to hit 7DMT and Peter Pan before the lines are too long. Early dinner at Tony's. No break at BF's request (eek!).
Tuesday: MK... zero plans until night. Booked the dessert party because last time I had to crouch under a tree to see fireworks.
Weds-Thurs no parks. My kids have never been to a beach so we are getting a van and will go exploring.
Thurs night: Spirit of Aloha dinner show then hoping to catch Wishes from the beach at the Poly.
Friday: HS. We are all Star Wars fans! Planning to sign all the kids up for JTA. No other plans there. Hoping to get a good view of the fireworks. Wasn't able to book the dessert party there.

Are you going to the 8:30 seating on the 9th? That is when our group is going! I will look for a family with 4 girls. :)
 
Just an FYI - if you still want to tweak your FP's, give it a try. I was able to move our 7DMT by a few hours and also our Toy Story Mania. Now I think we are officially done (lol)!
 
And the weather for our first week has updated to Sunny! Now if the 2nd week will take off those Thunderstorms!

Our last trip in 2013 we literally did not have a drop of rain the entire trip (8 days). I'm sure it was an anomaly. But hoping for at least not full rainy days this trip!
 
I'm currently counting down to June 1st, so I can see the Coronado Springs pool activities/movie schedule!
 
:dumbo:7 days and just dying to get there! I have been looking at Disney photos online all morning. It will be a busy Memorial Day weekend but I will be doing my Disney packing on Monday. YAY
 
Keeping this secret is so hard!!! Can't wait until next Wednesday when I can finally reveal our trip to hubby...

Keeping surprises is so hard!! I keep almost accidentally blowing it and mentioning something that would give it away. This morning I almost told my sister about how I keep tweaking my packing list...when according to my cover story, I wouldn't need to pack at all! She thinks we're just staying at my place for the week :rolleyes1
 
7 days ...

And of all things - I was going to work on some more of my surprise while hubby was at work - and he decided to work from home today...

grrrr..... he's killing me trying to keep this secret
