We are planning to go to DTD the day we arrive, too. I was thinking we may try to go to MK on arrival day instead of departure day, but DD definately wants to go to DTD that day. Just not sure if we'll have time to do MK and DTD both, so we may see you at DTD that night!

 

[Lfwilliams28]

Post those pictures would love to see them! We have been stoked, so this is keeping me sane

 

[TinkerbellinNY6]

Sorry I didnt get any update up today but that was because my mom and I went shopping and got some new clothes for vacation and some disney Holiday Decorations!

I would love to read your pre Trip Report. We will be at the cabins from Dec 17 until Dec 27. DD 14 & I will be going to spend Christmas with DD 19 who is doing the DCP.

 

[TinkerbellinNY6]

Sorry I didn't get an update up over the weekend but I have been uploading pictures onto photobucket so I have some the christmas pictures I wanted. I am working on an update now.

 

[TinkerbellinNY6]

I figured I might as well do a day-by-day schedule. We are not ones to have every moment planned out but we do like to have an idea of what we would like to see and do for the day. (Pictures will be from past trips so please ignore other people besides my mom and I)

So here goes Day 1:
Our flight leaves at 7 AM so I figure we should be at the airport around 5:30 AM which means we have to leave the house by 4 AM
We will be arriving in Orlando around 10 and I am hoping to be at POP around 11 or so. The plan is to check in and hope we get and our room will be ready. We will then eat lunch at the food court as I am looking forward to

the Chicken Penne Alfredo! and of course the tye dye cheesecake!

After lunch we will head to our first Park of the Trip:

There isn't too much planned to get done for this day but we would like to see Mickey's Jingle Jungle Parade

And go on the Safari, Everest, and Dinosaur. We also think we might want to go check out Rafiki's Planet watch...

So after Animal Kingdom closes we are going to head to Downtown Disney! I can't wait to see all the Christmas Merchandise!

We will eat dinner at Earl of Sandwich! We are planning on sharing 2 sandwiches which will include the Holiday Turkey Sandwich (I can't wait to try this!!!) and most likely

the Cannonballs!

After spending time we will go back to POP and most likely fall straight asleep as that will be a very long day!​

I would love to read your pre Trip Report. We will be at the cabins from Dec 17 until Dec 27. DD 14 & I will be going to spend Christmas with DD 19 who is doing the DCP.

I would love to do the DCP one of these days! I am thinking the fall of next year!

Thanks for joining in! That 4 am sure will hit me later that day...


I am working on day 2 now but have some work I need to finish first.

 

[TinkerbellinNY6]

So onto Day 2:
The plan is to get up and head to

Magic Kingdom! We will spend the day here with lunch at the Plaza or Counter Service. Then go to Pop for an afternoon break!
After if we do lunch at Plaza then we will just head back to Magic Kingdom or if we have a counter service lunch we will eat dinner at the Grand Floridian Café. That night we will be at Magic Kingdom for the

Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party! We want to meet most of the characters, see the shows (pics in next post), the fireworks, and the Parade! After the party we will just head back to Pop and crash!​
