I Wish I Could Share My PTR but It's 4 Pages Long

6d/5n at the Beach Club
3d/2n at Animal Kingdom Lodge

I have never done a PTR since this is the first I've ever been on a board. My travel companions to the World are 2 daughters and 2 grandkids. One daughter and the 2 grandkids have been on all 3 of my WDW vacations, DD2 made it to the trip at easter and is flying in late on our arrival day for this one.
I love Disney World and I think only people on forums such as this one truly understand how anyone could spend so much money in a year to visit WDW. I am sure I can't keep that pace up, but hell it's 2012 and I just discovered the Magic a year ago so I have alot of lost time to make up and 2 adorable grandkids I want to have these magical memories with.
I started with the Disney is coming insomnia last night so between midnite and 3 am I wrote out a 4 page itinerary.

Isnt that the BEST feeling??? In a day or so, you will feel like there's so little time with so much to do!! I fret and worry every day for a month out LOL. Travel day, I run around like a chicken without a head, saying to myself "I KNOW I forgot something!!!!!" LOL

Big SIGH!! I got 2 more sleeps. I revised the PTR. I spent 40 minutes on the phone this afternoon and killed my battery cancelling 9 ADR's.. I don't know what overtook me this week but between Sunday and noon today I booked 11 meals...in addition to the ones I already had.:oops:
Basically the theme is now sleep in some mornings/have character dining and/or do the chosen park during morning hours/ spend afternoons at resort/ spend evenings/nights back at parks since we have EMH at all parks except AK. This is how we are going to deal with the heat. So happy and so excited!:D
