Yippee!!! We're down to less than 2 weeks to go! When we planned our trip in February we invited a young woman who is a very dear friend - almost like a second daughter - to go with us. We included her in everything - resort package, ADR's, travel plans.

The difficulty is that she works in the television and film industry and her work schedule is erratic. We knew she would come with us if she could but if an opportunity came to work on a film she'd need to take it. She's been working for years at PA jobs trying to get enough hours to get into the DGA.

Anyway - we just got a call today that she is for SURE going to be coming with us! She's been able to work fairly steadily since her regular job shut down for the season so she has enough money saved to live off of for a few months. And no good offers have come her way yet so next Sunday she'll be flying here so we can all drive to WDW on June 2nd!

We're so excited! We love her so much - my youngest DS only recently figured out that her last name wasn't the same as ours! She's always been such a large part of our lives. It just seems right that she'll be able to be with us on our "Once In A Lifetime Family Vacation!"

That's wonderful news. Hope you all have a Fantastic time!

Hi All!

Does anyone know which hours I should trust for The Fantasmic times? The disney travel agents says 9 and 10 30 and wdwinfo only has 9 pm.

I am just not sure which would be correct.

Thanks

 

[Swimmergirl]

I checked Disney's website on Friday and the extra Fantasmic times for June were listed there. They're having Fantasmic twice a day every night we're there except one! I'm glad, but it makes me a little nervous since it probably means they are expecting higher crowds.

I'm such a dork - I got very excited at the market today when I realized that the milk I bought will expire after we leave on our trip. That means we're getting close!

 

[Eeyores#1Fan]

Congrats on winning an IPad! We're big supporters of MoD too since my six year old was a 25 weeker! Go you!!!

Thanks! You go too! We've always been MoD supporters but after our DD (4 on May 30th) came at 24 weeks weighing 1lb 4oz it just makes it even more special to me. I don't know how I could have survived her 5 months in the hospital without reading about others stories or meeting people that were going through the same thing in the NICU. MoD rocks

We are coming June 9-14. We just booked last-minute!!! Can't wait to see how our 3-year-old son reacts to everything. Am a little concerned about the heat though - last time we were there in Jan. '10 in was 38 degrees; how hot is it really going to be?????

YAY for you! That's awesome! June tends to be really hot but the beg. isn't as bad as the end going into July.

I may be interested if the times are right! I have such a large group that I am traveling with. But if we set a date/time/place for a group meet, I would do my best to get there!

my daughter thinks she's a rockstar, theres not really an other way to describe her. Well while we were sitting by a fire for some reason it dawned on her we were going to disney, its not like it was a secret, she's known all along. It was really cute so I thought I'd share

Too cute! I love how kids can do that, just sing out loud and be so excited. I feel the same as she does, but I think if I were to stand in the yard and sing about it they would take me away-and not to the right happy place.
