This time we fly on October 13th with KLM (Delta) from Amsterdam to Detroit and later on the 13th from Detroit to Orlando.

We only have one ADR for the whole stay. The rest we will see what we do about eating.

Off course we have our FP+ fixed, will write them down in the next post! And off course I have to finish the TR of 2015.

Awesome time of the year to be at WDW, the weather is great and of course Food and Wine. Looking forward to your report!

Yeah, it is one of the greatest times of the year to be in WDW. All the things you said and don't forget the Halloween season and MNSSHP! Off course there will be a TR! But first I have to finish the TR of last year!

TRIP OVERLAP!!! We'll be there too from the 19th-21st before our cruise! Have a great trip!

Thanks, and off course same to you! Have a great time in WDW and a wonderful cruise!!

Thanks! Off course there will be more info the next 50 days, and after that off course there will be a TR! Although I have to finish the TR from our prior trip October 2015 :)

So exciting! We'll arrive on the same day so our countdown is the same :). We had our last two nights at POFQ but switched it when I found a good deal at the Boardwalk. I couldn't resist it! Can't wait to see what your plans are! Maybe we'll run into you while we're there.

Wow that's great! Is Boardwalk even better than POFQ? I can't imagine :) The plans come in our next post! Like you said maybe we'll run into each other while being in WDW. Off course we will not be the only one in the parks :)

Can't wait to hear all about! I am in!

Thanks! We can;t wait to share it all with you.... although it should't go too fast.... when I am sharing a TR it means we are back home :)

Sounds like an amazing trip! We'll be in Epcot on the 14th, so say hi if you see us! I'll keep an eye out for you :)

The main reason I switched was because the first few nights of our trip are at Yacht Club, and I wanted to stay in that area. For one, our main objective is to enjoy Epcot for most of our trip, and also I wanted to be able to move my own luggage. ha! I'm too much of a control freak to let Disney do it.

Haha great! We will look out for you! And I understand why you switched.... and ok for the luggage control, we're the same kind of control freak I guess :)

Everything sounds fantastic!! I love going to Disney in the fall. Have a great time.

Thanks...countdown is down to 7 days! Final week of work and then take-off!!

WHAAAAAAT us too! I'm so pumped. This is later than the one we went to last year, so I'm bracing myself for the crowds, but still super excited. Are you going to dress up?

So we are there the same day :) No we're not going to dress up! Just enjoying all the people that are dressed up!

Awesome resort and awesome time of the year!

Absolutely, third year in a row this period!

Enjoy your pre-trip jitters! It looks like we miss each other just a little over a week! We will both be in Disney soon!!! :) :)

Ohw yeah we are :) Can't wait!! And off course enjoy the pre feelings as much as we do!!

looks like you got a terrific trip that's getting close!

We're almost there :)
