Pre-Trip Happiest retirees in The World

Hi folks, after lots of encouragement and kind words from many magicians on here I have decided to do a trip report of our upcoming vacation.
When …. 5th September .. 7 nights Endless Summer Hotel Universal
12th September..14 nights POFQ ..WDW
Who ….My sister Christine. “C”. Myself. Gillan. “G”

Just a little backstory.
We started visiting WDW in 1980 and have enjoyed many trips over the years. We have also done the occasional trips to Disneyland Paris and Disneyland California but we feel much more at home in WDW. Our final visit was in 2008 as we then had other priorities being our ailing elderly parents. Between 2009 & 2013 we sadly lost both of them so we decided to wait until after our early retirement from our local hospital to have our next vacation to WDW as a retirement gift to ourselves.
We had to delay the visit 4 times because of you know what and will finally be arriving this September.
Reading all the trip reports on this great forum has helped us so much, especially with the changes that have taken place over the years ie : MDE app.
Once we return home from this fabulous vacation I will do a trip report.View attachment 729707This is us at Disneyland Paris. Christine to the right and me to the left.

You always give everyone such nice support about their trips you deserve the same in return. 😊
Thank you for the kind words they mean a lot. You gave me so much encouragement that I feel I can do this.😊 Cannot believe we are going there soon.

Less than 6 weeks to go and you can imagine how excited we are. We have now booked our park days and we have left a number of days free to explore and for pool time. We are hoping Typhoon Lagoon is still open in September as we prefer it to Blizzard Beach. We have booked just a couple of ADR’s for the moment which are Be Our Guest for lunch and Chef Mickey’s dinner. We have never been able to get a booking for Chef Mickey’s so we were really happy for this one. We would like to do LTT but we feel there maybe too much food for two people.
We have now booked an overnight stay at the Heathrow Hilton Garden Inn ready to fly out the next morning.

Glad to see you've booked a hotel the night before travel day 😀 We always do this and it takes do much stress away from getting to the airport in time. Also starts the holiday a day early.
Will be following you along on you trip report too.
Yes we have always had an overnight stay at the airport when we have gone on a long haul flight. Really pleased to have you following along.

We ate at Chef Mickeys for dinner last week and it was so good. But, if you are going to partake in a mixed cocktail, do yourself a favor and get it beforehand at the Outer Rim. 1000% better than chef mickeys bartender!!!

It’s great to hear you really enjoyed the meal there. We couldn’t get a reservation all them years ago so we are excited to experience it this time.

We have dined at LLT with a party of two and parties of four. With a party of two the portions are smaller but you can always ask for more if you want extra of something. This is one of our favorite places to eat.
Thank You , it’s helped to hear that and we have decided to book LTT now. We just didn’t like the idea of wasting too much food as people’s photo’s show quite a lot. We have been there a few times in the past and had the Pilgrims Feast so it’s definitely one of our favourites.
