Welcome to the thread! We will be at Allstar Music with you. Maybe we will run into each other. Since this is your first trip down please feel free to ask any questions about what you might expect or how we plan for our days. Please ask away. I would love to have yet another reason to talk about anything Disney. Lois

Thanks so much! That is so exciting that we will be there at the same time, I always love meeting new people. My DH says I never meet a stranger...lol I know I have so many questions, but I always think of them when I'm not near a computer or paper Usually when I'm driving..lol

I am paid in full for our July 10-19 trip to POFQ. Now I just have to stop messing with our ADRs. I think I'm done though. It's addictive! We're going back in September, so I will have to transfer my planning addiction to that trip, lol.

I am considering doing the Pirate League for my daughter, but wonder if they will have girl pirate costumes...I'd love a pirate Minnie or Elizabeth Swan outfit for her. I guess we'll find out more as the opening date draws closer. It looks like a fun experience. We're doing the Pirate and Pals cruise, so I was thinking maybe that morning do the Pirate League and just make a Pirate Day out of it. Argh! I'd have to cancel one of our lunchtime ADRs though.

I'm still obsessing about getting Harry Potter tickets for July 15. I have an alert on Fandango for when tickets go on sale. See, addicted, right???

Hi, I was reading about the Pirate League today, and I believe there is a package for girls called "Empress" for around $50.. so I guess there will be girl pirate costumes too! when POTC 2 & 3 were at the cinema, the disney store had Elizabeth Swan costumes, so maybe they'll have them again at Pirate League!

OK--Freaking out now. Someone posted over on TPA&S that they are only showing fireworks on the 4th this year, and no fireworks at all at the Disney Studios.

If that turns out to be true, I don't know what I will do! I had planned on being in MK on the 3rd, Epcot on the 4th. This is my first trip in July, and it was planned just to take in the fireworks!!! I can't even begin to imagine how packed the Magic Kingdom will be on the 4th if this is true!

Maybe the best thing to do would be watch Mk's fireworks from the Poly beach, and then take the monorail over to Epcot? Supposedly the fireworks will be at 9 pm at MK, 10 pm at Epcot. But If I do that, all of my ADRs for the 3rd and 4th will be useless!!!!

Trying not to panic. Deep breaths.

I think they're still having fireworks on the 3rd at the MK, just not the extra special 4th of July fireworks.

Good morning everyone!!! 81 days for me!! So exciting!!!! Those couple of days of HOT weather here in NJ really got me in the Disney spirit. HOT = WDW to me. (Especially for us July goers!!)
