Us at Club Villain with the Queen of Hearts on our last trip
So some back ground to our trip...so my parents are DVC members and every trip we've gone on, we've been lucky to be able to use their point to go. Scott and I have been talking for the past 5 years or so that one day we would like to buy our own points. So this past January we went for 10 days with our friends who are also DVC members and raved about being owners non stop. Anyways, we went on a tour and 90 minutes later we are new proud members of DVC with our home resort at Poly! We right away booked a trip for September. Right after we booked, we upgraded our 8 day tickets for an annual pass and bought Tables in Wonderland. So as you can see, we drank the Disney kool-aid !
Some details of our trip (September 16-25):
Sat 9/16 We fly out of Hartford, CT at night and land around 8:30pm. Pick up our rental car and make our way to the Polynesian!
Sun 9/17 This morning we will make a Walmart run, spend the afternoon at the pool possibly. I would love to do the Highway in the Sky Dine around, but at $160 per person...no way! So we decided to do our own...drinks at Poly, then we have a reservation for Citricos, then we end the night at the Top of the World lounge at the Contemporary.
Mon 9/18 MK in the am, Epcot at night with a reservation at Via Napoli
Tues 9/19 Mickeys Not So Scary Halloween Party, leaving the am open to whatever we feel like that day
Wed 9/20 Epcot in the am...very excited to be a Food and Wine! We haven't been to Food and Wine since our honeymoon 6 years ago, so we're ready to see whats new. Animal Kingdom at night. I'm excited to see Pandora at night! I went in early May with my mom and we were able to go to the passholders preview, so I am ready to see it again, and excited for Scott to see it. We have a fastpass for Rivers of Light, which will be a first for the both of us.
Thurs 9/21 Typhoon Lagoon! We have a dinner ressie at Homecomin' which is one of Scott's favorite restaurants.
Friday 9/22 MK in the morning with BOG for lunch. Our past few trips I haven't been able to get a reservation, but luckily was able to score one this time. At 830, we will be going to see Hoop De Doo for the first time.
Sat 9/23 Right now we have fastpasses for AK in the AM, but we will see how we feel this day and where we want to go
Sun 9/24 Last full day (nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo) Fastpasses in the morning for Epcot, then hit up Food and Wine one last time.
Mon 9/25 9 am flight back home (noooooooooooooooooo)
Okay, well that is our tentative plans for now..they have changed a million times and I'm sure they will change somewhat at sometime!!
