Just paid off our trip today. I am super excited now.
Awesome!!!!!!
Just paid off our trip today. I am super excited now.
Got back from our summer beach vacation last week and now have time to do MORE disney planning! Last night after looking and looking and looking at our ADRs and NOT being 100% about them, I added the Hoop-Dee-Doo Revue to our MK day (canceling our CP lunch reservations - no one is really into Pooh anyway and I was struggling with that one!). Anyway, we've never been to WDW but something about the reviews for this dinner show sound so fun. So this is what we have right now:
Oct 14th (Mon) arrival day - get to AK about 10 or 11. stay until parade and then head to POR to check in/unpack. Dinner at 'Ohana at 8:30. Maybe see fireworks from Hallowishes at 9:30 from restaurant.
Oct 15th (Tue) DHS - 8:15 breakfast at H&V, 2:30 lunch at Sci-Fi. Break at resort and may or may not head back for Fantasmic that night.
Oct 16th (Wed) MK - probably do an early CS lunch and then 4pm HDDR and then go back to MK for parades/fireworks.
Oct 17th (Thu) Epcot - snacks around the world with F&W and dinner at Via Napoli at 7:30 before Illuminations.
Oct 18th (Fri) last full day - I've left it pretty open. We will have park tickets but the kids want to do a water park. We will probably do water park from about 10-2/3pm and then go back to POR to pack up and get ready to leave the next day. Dinner reservations at House of Blues for 7:30 and souvenir shopping at DTD.
Oct 19th (Sat) departure day - We will most likely hit EMH at AK and ride a few things because we have 10:15 reservations at Tusker House. Thought about changing them, but I really want to keep them. I want to leave on a Mickey note!
I am SO excited!!! The only thing now is that we do have 6 day park tickets and one day we probably won't need them, but I don't want to change it in case it rains or is too cool for a waterpark on Friday. We would need something to do. Also the halloween party is an option for Friday night that I've considered..............not sure that it is something that we need to push to do this time though. My kids are 12, 9 and 5 though and the 5yo is a Halloween fanatic!
My birthday is next week and hubby is planning to take me to WDW in October as a present! We'll be going to MNSSHP and EF&WF. Ahhh ...an alone trip without the kids! Only 2 nights but I'll take it! Oct 6th & 7th. Not sure on the resort yet.. BW or BLT.
Just paid off our trip today. I am super excited now.
I have made my ADR's but one question I see the Candlelight progression for Epcot but never see anyway to schedule it. That is where you eat dinner and then can watch the fireworks - correct?? How do you make a reservation for that? Any help would be appreciated.
Was happy to see that the MK railroad will be back up and running before we get there. Scheduled to be closed from Sept. 30th - Oct. 20th.
The Railroad is going to be closed? Sad!!! It's been YEARS since I've been on it. It was one of the things I was really looking forward to!
BTW... where is everyone getting this info about ride closures?
Looks like our hostess/thread coordinator has deserted us! The October list has not been updated since March!
Yes, she mentioned several pages ago that she moved her trip to another time and would no longer be updating the list.
