Great way to spend your anniversary! And I like your style with the restaurants.
We are definitely splurging a little. We do OOP and budget about $100-125/day. Obviously there will be days we go over that but we will also split a lot of meals/snacks in the heat. We are ordering in breakfast foods, coffee and adult bevvies so do save a bit there. Then we will blow all our savings on V&A's!!Great way to spend your anniversary! And I like your style with the restaurants.
That's what I am hoping for. It looks like so much fun and I'd really rather do the water parks when it is not glaring sunshine.I haven't done the Glow nights, but it looks like a ton of fun. We did get Halloween party tickets just a few days before this year so I'd imagine you could get these day of
Thanks Liesa! We cannot wait to go back to V&A's! Keep your fingers crossed for a healthy Canadian dollar... we are currently trading at about 75 cents to each American dollar which makes a pricey meal even more so. But if you can't splurge on your 20th wedding anniversary, when can you???
Unfortunately, my CG brunch reservation is for July 7th not the Epic Girls weekend. I am still hoping that there is a chance I may be able to get there though. Right now the cheapest flight I can find is $680 and then hotel at $257 USD per night plus spending $$. It's not looking great. I am looking into DVC points and am keeping a close eye on flight prices. Fingers crossed! If the stars do align, it would be great to sit close by and chat. I have the feeling we would get along very well!
I've never heard of this but have been wanting to try out T.L. for quite some time! I'd bet Touring Plans might be able to answer your question though.Guess what????This is something I've wanted to do since I watched Tim Tracker's review of it last summer. Plus the available day for our dates is July 4th which is SO perfect as I really didn't want to be in the parks on the 4th with the crowds. The only thing is that tickets are non-refundable even due to weather conditions. And you know how crazy summer weather could be...Do you think it would be possible to buy tickets the day of? Have you ever been to this event? I'd love to hear your thoughts!
Disney just put tickets on sale for H2O Glow nights at Typhoon Lagoon this summer!!!

As our flight lands at 10:30, we hope to be passing through the magical sign of happiness about noon and will soon be arriving at AKL. We are renting points, so I know it is highly unlikely that our room would be ready so early. We will pack a carry on bag with swim gear etc and hopefully will be ensconced poolside with an adult beverage in hand before too long.
late lunch at Sanaa!
DH has never been to La Cava de Tequila so a visit there is definitely in order! I am looking forward to introducing him to the yumminess that is the
Avocado margarita!
He had to convince me to go to Disney our first trip, little knowing that he would create a life long Disney Addict!
I stayed at Animal Kingdom Lodge for my solo trip in 2017 and absolutely loved it! It felt like a little oasis away from the hustle and bustle of the parks. I loved the lobby, the pool, the CMs, the grounds, restaurants and lounge. Yes, I was hooked! I am so excited to share this lovely resort with my DH!
Bill has had Wilderness Lodge at the top of his list for a potential stay since the first time we ate at Whispering Canyon Cafe back in 2010.

That is the advantage of a solo or adult trip...you can really slow down and enjoy the little moments!Sounds like a terrific first day. I love the idea of getting there and then enjoying some pool time. Casey is always so anxious to get to a park to take it much slower (and indulge in some adult beverage deliciousness) sounds perfect.
I know!! I am SO sad. I haven't completely given up though....I don't know why May is so expensive! We would get along so well.....one day!Well, poop!! I could have sworn you were coming along in May. Because I certain of it; we'd get along perfectly and have such a nice time together!
Please let me know if things do work out. I know that the CA $ is in tough shape right now which makes travel super hard.
I love Typhoon Lagoon (hello lazy river!) and the thought of being there on a warm Florida evening is very appealing.I've never heard of this but have been wanting to try out T.L. for quite some time! I'd bet Touring Plans might be able to answer your question though.
Totally!MMMM!!! Deliciousness in a glass!
He sure is....my Disney partner in crime!Aww, I didn't realize this!!I love that he was the one who got you hooked on Disney!
It is just perfect!I felt exactly the same way!
So excited to finally stay at WL! We could never stay there with the boys though as a family of 5. My guys will not share a bed either anymore.Wilderness Lodge is my FAVORITE resort ever, ever, ever. We haven't booked it in years b/c the boys hate sharing a bed and we can't guarantee the bunks if here isn't a designated room available. I find a reason to visit it on every trip if I can.
That would be amazing! I hope we have the same good luck.I'll cross my fingers for you! for our first nye visit to ring in 2018 our Kidani room was ready around 8:30am on rented points. I was shocked!!

What do you mean?? You expect me to go four parks in one day?????
(possibly he was bribed with drinks at Nomad and dinner at Ohana but we won't mention that)
pop into Les Halles for a bit of breakfast.
head straight to Nomad Lounge to chill for a bit
Don't those seats look comfy???
Bill's request was to ride Kali River Rapids, which we have never done before.
Dole Whip or maybe the Peter Pan float.
Since it is a balmy -8 Celsius with a wind chill of -17

We have heard rumours of Kevin appearing at AK this summer
I think so too!Sounds like fun!!!
Right???There is NO better plan. The end.
I am really looking forward to trying it.I"m honestly torn now after trying the float. It was amazing! And just as refreshing. .
Tomorrow morning it is supposed to be -20 with a wind chill of -29. Brrr! We Canadians are a hardy bunch!
Me too!I mean, I could also be talked into just about anything with those two things!!
You will just have to work on them....I am actually surprised I got Bill to agree to it!Sounds like a great day to me! I've always wanted to do 4 parks in a day but haven't been able to convince my 2 partners in crime. If only they were as easily swayed by Nomads as I am
