I'm kidnapping my daughter from college in FL, and we are driving to WDW for a surprise visit! October 21: Magic Kingdom AM and Epcot PM October 22: AK in the AM and HS in the PM and then back to MK since there isn't much to do at HS. I am very excited to have this mom/daughter weekend time together.

Sounds lovely! What a nice surprise!

I am jumping out of my skin with excitement! I think the fact that we only have little more than a month to go is driving me crazy!! At least it helps distract me a little from the mess that this whole condo thing is at the moment.

We are there on the 27th, doing a MNSSHP that night!!!

[megster1123]

OMG it's now 12:01 so technically Sunday which means TOMORROW we'll be at WDW.

258 days of planning, 7 perfect ADRs grabbed, 2 dessert parties booked, 15 FP made, 3 park hour changes dodged, 6000 RoL rumors weathered, 4 versions of touring plans done, 5 podcasts devoured, 1 resort changed and 837 posts on the DIS.

I thought tomorrow would never come!

Is there a board for "Who's so excited they're having crazy Disney dreams?" I am 12 days out and last night I dreamed it was the afternoon of our flight and I hadn't packed anything. I was running around the house throwing random things into suitcases while yelling "our flight is less than 2 hours and we have to get to the airport!" I woke up in a panic with my heart thumping out of my chest. We travel a LOT and I am always a last minute kind of packer and never stress out about it (although I've never waited until the afternoon of our flight to pack). I think doing a quick Disney trip has just sent me over the edge on the excite-o-meter.

10/20 - Check in & pool time. Maybe night stroll in a park. TBD.
10/21 - Animal Kingdom, Tusker House
10/22 - Hollywood Studios, Fantasmic Dinner Package (Happy Birthday to me!)
10/23 - Magic Kingdom, CRT, BOG, MNSSHP
10/24 - Epcot, Akershus
10/25 - Check-out. Try not to cry all the way to the airport.
