are you getting married the 17th??? That's my parents anniversary. anyway, for those "personally I would never go in July" people I just say "too bad, I was going to invite you for free". Hahha

Yes the 17th! I hope that day treats us well!

I told my fiance that "we were going to invite you for free" he died laughing!

Quote:

Uggg! Isn't that annoying?!?!?

I know! Thanks for raining on my vacation parade!

Quote:

Our first trip was the week of July 4th two years ago and we survived just fine. Actually, we just spent a few days there the week after Christmas and the lines were horrible. After that, I'm looking forward to July!

I agree. We go before Christmas...but it seems that its getting more crowded every year!

Quote:

My concerns is the number of people. But I am trusting that it will be OK. When people ask about the heat I tell them to drink lots of water. Not juice or soda but water and I tell them about the spray bottles with the fans. There are ways to cope

We have gone twice in July. You'll be fine as long as you take breaks in the afternoon and have a good touring plan!

Quote:

I get that too..."you're going to FLORIDA in JULY?" People think we're crazy. But hubby teaches, and gets the whole month of July off, so that is when we can go. We have a good plan, and I think we'll be just fine. I'd rather be going in July than not going at all!

I agree!

Thanks for the welcome everyone! I'll be sticking around and maybe I'll be the first to create the July 2010 thread!

well, I hope the day is as good to you as it has been to my parents - 43 years and counting.

you have to remember to use the "free" line with the right tone of sarcasm "oh...that's too bad...I was going to invite you for free". after they've just announced that they'd NEVER go to Disney in July. hahaha. It works every time.

Personally, the summer is my favorite time to go to Disney. Maybe because as kids that's when we went (my dad was also a teacher) so I just equate disney with July. Dh and I went a bunch in the fall before kids but really, I still think disney and I think summer.

I just booked our airfare!!! It was a lot more money than I thought it would be, but I'm just happy we got the flights I wanted. We are taking a 6:15 am flight so we arrive in orlando around 8:30 which is awesome!

jmskinner · 02-02-2009, 02:02 PM

I'm glad you got the flights you wanted. I love getting there early the day of arrival, then you don't feel like you have missed a day. Plus, you will miss those afternoon storms that cause delays.

I'm very excited about getting there so early! We won't have park tickets for the first day, but I just want to relax and maybe go to DTD and then have a nice dinner.
However, the flight on our way home is 5pm so I am worried about those afternoon storms and having a delay.

We are arrive at about 12:30 if all goes well. I hope that we can spend some time at Downtown Disney.

HAHA! Well, we've been together for 6 years and have lived together for 4 of those. We've been an old married couple for a while now. Believe me, there will be plenty of sleep!
