They just don't understand my madness

[FancyBrat]

We all have those friends around us that just don't understand our madness. My friends think I'm crazy but one or two have admitted they wish they could have their trips as planned out and smooth as mine usually are .

I started out figuring the dates of our trip and booked that with the DDP and ME. Then looked at the Menu's and all the places that the kids, ages 13 and 15 would love. It's their first trip to WDW. Oh and myself 41 and DM 65.

Then figured out how many day's in each park we would spend, 3 MK, 3 E, 2 AK and 2 MGM with 2 extra days for waterparks, mini golf and disneyquest. I know some wouldn't spend more then one day in AK or MGM, but we plan on taking it easy and enjoying everything and seeing as much as possible without skipping over stuff.

I then called on day 180 and asked for CRT first thing, once I knew that day was MK I went from there and flew through all my ADR's. Called back the next morning and adjusted 2 of them but otherwise looked good. Have since added a couple.

Arrive 7:15am on the Red Eye from the West coast.

My madness didn't stop there, I have one day with Typhoon Lagoon/Downtown Disney/ Disney Quest planned. Then the other water park day will be Blizzard Beach/Mini Golf then Fort Wilderness Campfire Program.

I have a notebook going with different list on Things to collect for my Scrapbook. It's constantly growing lol. Also a list of what places to eat in each park for CS after looking through the Menu's. So those are all figured out. A list for the Snacks of where to get them and what to get at each place that I know everyone will love. Of course this will all be for general use but not something we have to stick too.

Next is to work out the plan on figuring out the parks and Fastpasses to get first and all that stuff to get the most out of our time.

Flights are all taken care of, Still need to Rent a ECV for Mom from Walker. Also planning on suprising the girls with Gift Baskets by Sarah to be there upon check in.

Now I still have until August to keep adding to my madness. Hope I'm not over doing it. Has to be a point I stop LOL. Just want to make it a Magical Trip for the girls that they'll always remember. Any additional Idea's you can think of please let me know.

I just have to add that I know there's alot of Negative stuff said about the DDP from those that go alot, but from somebody that doesn't get to, only 2nd time for me, the DDP is a godsend to be able to prepay and actually enjoy my trip without having to worry about the finances and also already knowing where we will be eating and when. Once at WDW I can then enjoy the vacation along with the girls. I guess thats the Planner in me. But I hope Disney never gets rid of it. Just my 2 cents
