That's also my first stop at Epcot to get a black and tan!
I will be traveling for the first time with out the hubby on October 31st for a few nights. When talking with one of my best friends from Chicago last week, I told her that I really needed to get away for a few days and she told me that she was thinking the same thing, but she could not find anybody to go with her. Long story short, we decided to leave our husbands behind, and since I had some points, I booked 3 nights in a studio for us first night at Cooper Creek and the other two at a Riv standard ( I still can't believe I was able to get those nights !) , I found $59.00 each way fares for both of us, from Chicago and Dallas, and now we are all set!
I know this is not a solo trip but this is close enough for me, since I always want to be with my family at DW. My kids (19, 25,36 ) are shocked that I'm willing to go without them. My friend is very easy going and I will be pretty much the one planning because she doesn't go as often as I do or keeps up with any changes. She said she was excited to go just the two of us, because she only has been with her kids or now her kids and grandchildren, and they never want to go where she wants to go , like Epcot to visit with countries. We will be there for F&W which is another big plus.
Our plan so far, is to get to CC around 1PM, leave our luggage, take boat to MK for some picture outside, go to the Poly for lunch and a Lapu, lapu ( maybe visit GF for another drink ) . Go back to CC and either just go to the Wilderness Campground for the Halloween decorations and then watch the fireworks or go to Disney Springs.
What would you all do ?
We will get 2 day park hopper tickets to go to Epcot early hours the following day ,and HS for a couple of hours maybe in the evening before returning to Epcot for the fireworks We will go to early hours at AK the next day to try to ride Avatar , then Epcot again in the evening. check out day, just enjoy Disney springs and maybe visit another resort by boat.
