Congrats! I love the feeling when you are so close you can taste it. We sat making sure our ADRs were set, changed if need be. We also got a babysitter for an adult night when we were down. Looked at forums thought about where we wanted to go. ETC.

I make lists and spreadsheets like crazy. I also visit the forums a lot and pore over menus. I check line waits on my 'Lines' app. I look a photos of my hotel. I watch videos or whole rides and shows on youtube. I check my camera and memory cards again.

No lists for us! No spreadsheets! We wake-up in the morning and decide over breakfast which park to go to! This will be our 12th trip to WDW in the past 10 years so we know our way around pretty well. We find being spontaneous works best for us. 4 more days till Pop Century!

35 days here! :sohappy:

Normally we book & start planning at least 7 or 8 months in advance. This is my shortest ever planning window, booked at about 48 days from arrival. Also, this is our first trip since the start of our homeschooling adventures which I'm still finding totally demands that i have my ducks in a row at all times which is NOT my norm. Eek! I'm gonna head upstairs to start some lists to get super organized. And update my spreadsheets, start printing out all the stuff I need, etc.

I'm so glad you started this thread! Motivation to the max! :D

We are staying at the CSR. November 21st thru the 27th. :sohappy:I booked this vacation in February and I've been on the forums every day since before I even booked!

I always study the menus when I'm hungry :slurp: and because of that, I have made and cancelled reservations all around "The World"!!!

I don't make spreadsheets because I want it to be somewhat laid back, but, that is also why I have done so much planning!

Sunday- Lunch at Raglan Road (DS request) then off to MK for the EMH
Monday- Epcot-Dinner at Via Napoli! Can't wait to try something new!
Tuesday- AK and dinner at Boma
Wednesday- Chef Mickey's (again 17 yr old DS says "Don't mess with my character breakfast Mom!")
Thursday- THANKSGIVING- MK and Liberty Tree Tavern
Friday- Epcot- dinner at Chefs de France

So excited!!!! :xmas: I can't wait to see all of the decorations and FEEL THE MAGIC!!!

No lists, no spreadsheets. We've made the trip so many times we know what to take, what park the first day, etc. We are a little further out then some at 88 days but are beginning to think about it a little more now. Just said to my son the other day that it will soon be time to get the suitcases out of the attic!

So, do they do anything special for that day or is it the same as any other day? Thanksgiving is also our anniversary and I want it to be special but didn't want to add a celebration because I think that there will be enough craziness!

I just thought that it would be so cool to have Thanksgiving dinner there! :sohappy:

Checking ADRs, looking at menus so I can change ADRs if needed, excess amounts of time on the boards here, planning videos, guide books, YouTube, packing, drinking lots of coffee so I can stay up late and get even more excess times on the forums, etc...
