"UnOfficial" May 2013 planning thread. It's never to early to start planning!

Welcome to the Disboards! I think you'll find that we're a lively chatty bunch of folks. I started a trip report a while back and I'd love to have you come over for a read. It won't take long to catch up because I have handy dandy chapter links on the first page. Just click on the "Excuse me....." link below.

Thank you so much for your warm welcome. I am going to head right over there and check it out. I can already tell that these boards are going to get me in trouble.

Hey everyone, I am new here at the DisBoards and wanted to say hi. I will be going to Walt Disney World on May 11-18th and will be staying at POR. I am a single mom and will be taking my daughter for the second time for her birthday. She will be turning 10 during our stay.

I couldn't be more excited to meet all of you and plan our trips together.

Welcome PrincessMom13. I am also taking my DD for a visit to the world for her birthday. Can't wait to hear more about your trip.

Adding you to the list.

Hey all!!!! I will also be going to WDW. My dates are May 12- 17 booked at POP but could change to CBR.... I have been there 7 times previously. Last time was June 2010 for my DD 5th Bday. This time around its me and her alone again. My DH isn't such a big Disney fan. He said he can go once every 5 years or so.....

Can't wait to hear about everyone's plans..

Welcome mari360, it is great to have another May tripper here. I stayed at Pop last year with my son and had a great time, though I am sure CBR would be great as well. I had thought about it for this trip, but ultimatly we chose POFQ. I am also going on a mother/daughter trip (though my son and his father might tag along), she will be turning 8 a couple months after our trip.

Adding you to the list.

Yay! Another Star Wars fan! Here's hoping the dates come out soon. Last year it was December/Jan when it was announced.

Good morning fellow May Disers! Now that I've gotten our reservations made, I'm already starting to scope out new restaurants, places to see and things to do. I know that I am not alone....who else is doing the same thing?

haha - i have all of our ADRs already planned out... just need to wait until our 180 day mark in November to make them, lol.

Glad I'm not the only planner out there! I've got a tenative plan but am waiting to see reviews on the new Be Our Guest restaurant. We also may venture offsite to Sea World or do a swamp tour. Once we decide, I'll know how to handle our dinner ADRs.

My husband just does this when I tell him that I'm looking through the menus already. He asked me last night "Didn't you just start your trip report from this year's trip? Why are you already thinking about the next one?". He knows how I am so I don't see how he can be surprised.

I also already have been checking out those restaurants and have an idea of which one I want to do. But with 4 months untill I am able to make my ADR's, they will probably change between now and than.

I don't really post very often but, we have a long time before our trip and thought I would join the board to help pass the time.

We are trying a split stay. From May 11-20 Pop and May 20-24 AOA!

I'm sure I'll change up the plans many many times before it's time for us to make ADRs.

Welcome to the May Disers! I've never done a split stay but I know a lot of folks do.

I don't know about you, but I get stuck in the same rut. We eat at the same places over and over. I'd like to try some places that are new to us, but have been there for ages.

The new Agent P Adventure is pretty cool! We love Perry!! We did UK and Germany!! Excited to try another country sometime too!

Can't wait to try Be Our Guest restaurant!

We have our favorite restaurants for sure but I try to work in at least one new one each year. I wonder if Anakin would like the pizza at Via Napoli. I think I remember you saying that he likes his sauce smooth. Hunter ordered the four cheese pizza and it doesn't normally come with any red sauce. However, we asked if they would put some on the pizza and is was good and didn't have a chunky texture to it.

We haven't done the Agent P Adventure nor the new card game thing at Magic Kingdom. I need to add those to our list.

I'm anxious to see pictures and reviews for Be Our Guest.

One of my kiddos is turning 17 on the trip and not sure where we want to take her to celebrate..any ideas? She loves characters and isn't picky

Yes! That does sound like a good choice for him. He and I will eat alfredo sauce on pizza too. My reluctance is over the ovens. I can't help but wonder if he'd be afraid of them and be worried the whole meal? We can't get him on Maelstrom because of the troll in the gift shop.
