We are doing a split stay and it let us do fast passes for the entire length of our stay on the first day of our 60 day window.

Yeah it ended up letting us do all of them at once.

Hi there,
Joining you all! We are doing a split stay. POFQ May 2-5 and then moving to Bonnet Creek when my 16 year old and his friend arrive May 5-10. They didn't want to miss a week of school. Nerds! lol. It's been 3 1/2 years since our last trip, so it feels like I'm learning from the start again with all the changes.

44 days to go! I can't believe it! I'm trying to tweak ADR's. We have too many, but it's hard to let something go! I don't want to have to pay out of pocket for a bunch of them. What to do, what to do!

Will be there May 9-13 AofA Finding Nemo suite!

I've heard very good things about that tour, too! We're heading to Epcot in the afternoon after the tour and a couple MK Fp's

We'll be around Epcot all day. Got that Frozen FP! Sticking around for Illuminations too, and hoping to do dinner later at Cantina de San Angel. Should be a great night!

We did the Pirates and Pals fireworks voyage a couple of years ago and really enjoyed it...and it's just me and DH!

I wish we'd done this when my boys were younger because I REALLY want to do it! Even though they might whine at first, I'm thinking of booking it next time they come with us (May is just DH and I). And if that doesn't happen I'll probably just book it on our next adults only trip because I'm pretty sure it's something I NEED to do lol

It is so much fun! We went last year. It was DD6 and then 4 adults - we all LOVED!! It was Magical

68 days to go! We can make FP+ a week from tomorrow, so we've charted our FP priorities and alternates. This will be our longest trip yet, so we've built one full "free" day and about 3/4 of another into the schedule. I hope this works in our favor to get in a couple more Tier 1 FP+ at HS and Epcot. We're also hoping to do some resort hopping and explore some of the new places in Disney Springs with our slower pace. DH and I are planning a land and sea getaway for Jan 2018, and just this week, we've started talking about taking my momma to the World in Oct 2018! So exciting! I love planning, and our May/June trip may include a little scouting for future ones! YAY!!

Made our fast passes today! I was worried since I wasn't able to log onto the computer until 7:45 am to do that there would be some I wouldn't get for the times we wanted. But after an hour of adjusting times around I got all of the ones we wanted in the order we wanted them. Now the count down is on!! We are staying at AKL Kidani Village for the first time ever with a Savannah view. This is our first time going Deluxe and we picked this resort for my son, who is a huge animal lover.

Just made our final payment! Even though we are 43 days out, I figured why wait til the 30 day mark, just get it done! Updated my flights so the ME tags can come in the mail!

POR May 12-18! Can't wait. It is our first time staying in POR and we are looking forward to a new experience. We will be celebrating a 18th wedding anniversary and mothers day all on the same trip. Got Ohana ADR booked for our anniversary dinner. Here is to hoping we can get a window seat to watch the fire works while we eat!

So excited! Will be going down May 31-June 9 (Well, as long as work approves it, but won't find that out til end of April--don't they understand I have FP+ to book 60 days out--ugh! ) My sister and her family were already going down and staying at POR. My mom and I are going to go down and join (invited of course!) them and get to stay at POR too. I LOVE that resort! 70 days away

 

[lobolabo]

Booked our FPs this morning! I'm super excited.

 

[AZMouseMom]

Booked the Star Wars dessert party! We are doing it for the "boys" (okay, okay DH and I are probably more excited about this!)
This trip has a bunch of "firsts" for us: first moderate; first dessert party; a few new restaurants; first time all of us can drink around the worldlol!

 

[firsttimer4]

Is there a May facebook group?

Any AP's register for the Pandora preview? DH and I are going May 20th 12-2. Now I'm not so sad that we go home 5 days before the grand opening!
