I always go solo in June for a business trip/five day solo nirvana, but I'm taking my wife this time. As we're having our first child in September, I'm giving up this year's solo trip so that we might take our final adult only trip! We'll be there June 6-12. Still don't know the hotel yet. Usually the BC or YC, but might downgrade so that the company money pays for the wife's trip. If anyone sees a six foot two red head and a 5 foot tall pregnant woman, that's us!

Join me for a women's group vacation at WDW. Who is going solo, but would rather share the experience with a few other women? 8 days, off-season, October. I'm reading a few books about Disney World and am learning how to plan a wonderful vacation, and avoid standing in long lines, minimizing stress and maximizing enjoyment. We can each get our own rooms and then meet up to share the adventure, or we can make arrangements to stay at the same Disney resort like Port Orleans -- French Quarter. Let's combine the freedom of independance with the discovery of knew frendship.

I will be going to Disney World on Dec 7-13 and I am going
to Mickey Very Merry Christmas Party on the 9 I can't wait
to go home to WDW again.

Hi all!
This is my first post and my 1st trip to Disney!! I was there quite
a while ago, when Epcot was being built. But, I was a lot younger
then and really didn't remember or appreciate it as I would now. I
grew up to become a Disney fanatic!! We are headed to Disney on Wed. 8/20 staying off site. Unfortunately, we only have 4 days
to spend there. So, we have to cram everything into 4 days. But,
I guess 4 days is better than none. Just thought I would say HI
and any ideas anyone can give me in doing this all in 4 days would be helpful. Can't wait to
see PLUTO!!

Disneywolf,

Having just spent a whirlwind 3 days in WDW (solo) doing stuff for my book, my best advice for you in doing it in 4 days is...

Wear comfortable sneakers!!! ;-)

You can't do it all, so pick and choose what you want to see the most, and try and plan your days accordingly. Take advantage of the Extra Magic Hours if you are staying on property.

Have fun!!!

AKQJ10 · 02-09-2004, 05:01 PM

Oh, you may want to pick up a guide like the PASSPORTER, which is very informative, fun and helpful!

conntom · 02-09-2004, 05:26 PM

Hi disneywolf I have been going to WDW for 21 year and
I love it. I talk to people from all over the world I just say Hi.
iF they need help and I can help I do that way I meet A lot
of people its fun.
As for the Rides I pick and chose and as for eating some day
I eat cheap and some days I eat good but just do your
own thing.
