[Jasminetigger]

I just booked our trip for July so I have nothing planned yet. I have never planeed a WDW trip with so little time so I am a little bit freaked out. But at least I won't have to wait so long for the trip to get here.

Hotels booked: portofino bay from July 14-18 and the Polynesian from July 18-26 on the DxDp!

ADR's are booked and have been changed numerous times, especially since my parents just booked 5 nights with us at the Polynesian....but I was able to keep everything in tact.
Airfare is booked.
Just waiting to book transfers from MCO to Universal and from Universal to Disney. I'd love to surprise my kids with a limo but not sure if I can swing it.....
I've purhased sunscreen and clothes and I want to start packing - LOL!!!!

I'm super excited!!!!

We are booked for the Poly July 24-31st with DDxP. SO EXCITED CANNOT WAIT. Made all our ADR's, driving so no worries about a car, we just need to pack and go!

We are will be staying from July 11-18 at the BC with a family grand gathering of 13. We are all so excited, but I am having reconstruction surgery on my knee in the next few weeks. So hopefully I will be able to walk by then, or I will have to use a wheelchair while in the parks.

I Have a question for those who have attended during July as this will be our first time during this month. How's the weather during July?

Glad to hear everyone is going do WDW, two months and change away lets go!

We are booked at staying at CBR July 22 thru July 29th with free QSDP. Airfare with Southwest is booked and paid for. Made two ADR's - Crystal Palace Breakfast and Rainforest Cafe. Have our plans worked out for which park on what day, etc. I am very excited - we haven't been to Disney since 2007. Hope everyone has a fantastic time!!!

I have been in July and August and while it is very hot, I feel it is really hot and humid in CT during those months so it really isn't a big deal for us. We leave the parks in the afternoon to take a swim and go back later in the day when the sun goes down and all inside attractions are air conditioned so I don't find it that bad at all.

We have flights to Sanford for a trip July 15-18. Mother Daughter trip[]My mom age 75, me age 45, my very best friend age 44, and my God daughter, my vbf 's daughter age 15 who is the honorary grand daughter. Renting a car, traveling with a wheelchair, booked at POFQ with ddp, adr's made, may need to tweek as vbf just said she was going yesterday and her duaghter doesn't know and she may not tell her till I come to pick up my Goddaughter who knows she is going with us. We will have Thurs afternoon at DHS so we can see Fantasmic, Fri am at AK, Friday night at Mk and dinner at O hana at 5p. We are planning to spend saturday at Epcot and have dinner at Boma. Our plane leaves at 7a on Sunday so this is a very short weekend trip.

Our family of 4 (DH, DS-22, DD-20, Me) check into our fave ASMo July 18-25 and all that's left is to rent the limo to/from Sanford and transfer my VISA reward dollars to the card.

Broke down and booked last night, can't go in the fall this year like we usually do and I was going through withdrawal, had to book even if it is in the summer.
Resort, tickets, dining and flight all booked, just trying to find some cheaper rental car prices. So excited!

 

[Dynamite626]

We are booked at the WL, July 18 - 23. This will be our second trip. My husband, six year old G Daughter and me. So far I have reserved breakfast with Lilo and Stitch, Cinderella at the Castle, Akerershus with the Princesses, dinner at Ohana and Whispering Canyon. I have an appointment for Riley at Bibbity Bobbity Boutique just before our breakfast with Cinderella and planning to book her a "My first Facial and Massage" at the Lodge. We are also hoping to get the "Magic Family Tour" booked. I'm so excited, can't hardly think of nothing else.

 

[brenalexacamp]

booked Boardwalk, flight down.............planning park days

need to get flight back and tickets-my teens need to make sure if I get park tickets-I don't want to hear them ***** about the heat- if they want to lay by the pool all day fine-----just don't want to lay out money on tickets and have to pay for them not to expire.

Hi All,

So I leave for Disney in 39 days on July 8th and I havent received my ME mail, have any of you got yours yet? and if so how far off are you?

Just curious if that is normal or if I should call them?

TIA
Jen

 

[airhead]

this time, 2 weeks from now,we will be waiting to be seated at Cape May!
My countdown started over a year ago. Can't believe I have less than 2 weeks!!!!!

 

[Ilovedis30]

17 days to go for me 16 if I don't count the day we leave,lol. All that is left to be done is to print out my itineraries, flight info and thats pretty much it. It's these last days that are driving me nuts

[Guzzi]

We are booked for July 13 - 22 at CSR, we just love the resort, making our 3rd trip there

 

[Ready2GoBack]

July 20 - 29 at All Star Sports
Dis fridge swap
Cirque
Disney Qwest
A few ADRs at T-Rex, Rose & Crown
We found that the less we plan our days out and the less ADR's we have to worry about, the more enjoyable our vacation is. Our first trip we were commandos, but learned quickly that with the heat and mass of people; we had better just go with the flow.
Do want to hit Blizzard Beach at some point.
No rental car, taking advantage of Disney transportation

Just love that Disney commercial with the kids --"We're too excited to sleep" - me too and I still have a month to go!!

Got the flights...
Printed the itinerary...
Got the car...
Printed the confirmation...
Got the DW tickets...
Found the confirmation letter...
Got the condo...
Printed the confirmation and instructions...
Got the GPS...
Got the converter...
Got the ESTA/toll thingy sorted...
Charged the GPS...
Printed a list of places to see/go in Orlando...
Printed calendar events at the parks...

Have yet to... remember to pack my divers lisence, pack the passports, charge the camera battery, upload existing pics to pc, find the other adapter, buy a new memory card for camera, find all addresses of people expecting postcards, find all mp3 players needed to sooth us all on 18 hr trip to Orlando, charge mp3 players, load music etc onto mp3 players, update map on GPS (have no idea how to do this....!!!), find travel insurance card, find addresses to DW parks to input into GPS, find out where to take our online booking nr for DW tickets and get "real" ones... and need to purchase Kennedy Space Center tickets.
And I need to remember to check how much road toll is and make sure I have COINS (don't think Norwegian Kroner will do...) when driving from airport to condo, jetlagged and confused...

already found address of nearest IHOP so we can get breakfast the first morning...

I'm at the point where everyone is going "are you going there all by yourself with the kids?!?! You're not visiting anyone?? Wow, you're BRAVE!!"....... and I'm thinking to myself.... "yeaaaah........ well, I have no idea what I'm doing, but I'm sure we'll have fun!!"

And then reading how much stuff everyone has planned for each day at the parks... yikes! I've planned NOTHING! Tho I seriously doubt my 13 yr old son would appreciate breakfast with cinderella.... I did print the calendars for the different parks for all the days we'll be there so we can go to the shows etc... But I sure was happy to read someone's post of "the less we plan the better"...

Is there a specific place at each park one should be at to watch the firework shows??

Have a great time everyone!!!
