The Wedding Was Great, but now for the Disneymoon! An October 2012 PTR -Updated 10/3!

[RachVH]

So I have put off doing a post on the last two days of our Disneymoon for a couple of reasons. One, I don't really want to already think about the end of our trip. Two, we don't really have any plans, and those plans that we do have are, in my opinion, kind of boring. And three, we won't be in Orlando anymore, so that means no more Disney!

Our plans for the last two days are to relax and visit some of my relatives that I never get to see. We are staying at a pretty nice hotel/spa. So I will just show some pictures of that:

And here's some pictures of the rooms:

We are staying in a king size room poolfront room, which means we will walk out from our room straight to the gorgeous pool overlooking the bay. I know we will need a couple of days of rest and relaxation after our schedule at Disney and Universal, so it will be nice to have a couple of days to spend doing just that before we return to the real world. Depending on the weather we might head over to the beach one day as well. Other than that, we don't have too many other plans.

Then Sunday of course we will be heading back to the airport (a different airport than where we arrived, so no Tragical Depress...I mean Magical Express for us on the return journey either).

And just like that, ladies and gentlemen, we have only two days until lift off. I can hardly believe it, but yes it's true, at this time on Friday we will in the air (hopefully) on our way to MCO and WDW! The last couple of days have been filled with last minute projects and plans. Want to see some? Of course you do.

Behold, my mousekeeping envelopes (which have been done for a while but now have real money in them!)

I also finalized my index cards with all of our information. The park day cards have our planned park for that day, planned meals (including ADR confirmation numbers if applicable) as well as all times for parades and evening events. It's a good thing I waited to finalize these, because Disney has been adding hours and events like crazy! Many of our nights now have two MSEP and F! showings, which is great because I was worried we might miss out on those. There is also a card that has all of our flight information as well. And yes, they are color coded and laminated. So here they are:

And finally, Ry said I was "rubbing off on him" last night when I was getting some things put together and he decided to make some notecards of his own! He put together his top choices for EP F&W and decided to laminate them too! Here they are:

If you look closely you will see that the largest list is all of the drinks! I asked him how many souvenir steins I should plan on brining back with us, and he answered "probably only 2."

Other than that I have just been packing, organizing, renting and downloading movies from iTunes that I can watch on my new iPad (Avengers, JFK and Breach) and just generally getting ready for this trip. Holy cow it is almost here!

So if I don't get the chance to post again before we leave, I hope everyone here will join my for my TR! See you then!

You are so amazingly organized and I am so envious of that! The hotel spa you will be staying at looks lovely! Good luck with your last day at work tomorrow, if we don't hear back from you before you go, have a wonderful time! Can't wait to read your TR!

Being really organized is a lot easier when you only have a DH to wrangle and no kids! Talk to me when I have as many kids as you and we will see who is organized then.

Good luck with the end of your pregnancy, and just in case Robert arrives while we are gone I will say congratulations now!

Your mousekeeping envelopes look great! They make me feel like an underachiever that I just left money on the bedside table with a handwritten "Thanks"!

Have fun on your trip, looking forward to the TR!

Oh my goodness, I am so glad that you said something, because I did NOT design these myself! I borrowed them from the creative DISigners on these boards. They all come from this thread. She has so many great ideas!

(And honestly, while these are fun, let's be serious I am sure the mousekeepers are just grateful to anyone who leaves money at all!)

Well, it's been a lot longer than I intended, but I have finally started my trip report! Life got crazy pretty much as soon as we got back from the world, especially since my new job doesn't afford any time on the Disboards! My migraines have also been plaguing me these last few weeks, so unfortunately the last thing that I want to do when I get home from work is spend any more time in front of the computer.

But we have such great pictures, I took awesome notes, and I have so many funny stories to tell you all!

So without further adieu, I give you Why Does Disney World Hate Maleficent? An October 2012 Disneymoon Trip Report. I hope you will come along for the ride!

(Oh, and as you may have noticed from my new signature, we're going back in August of 2013!)
