Help me settle a dispute with my dh

[Figgy1]

I want to finish next year's trip at Disney and my dh say he want's to do UNI last. We'll have 10 day hoppers with the WP for Disney so that's 14 days. Seeing they must be used on 14 consecutive days Disney is either going to start or finish our trip. We're going in August so I'm thinking I'd rather have the lower crowds at Disney and finish in my happy place. Help me think of ways to convince him he's SO WRONG! THNX

I say start and finish at UNI ... Just saying ....

LOL we have 21 days vacation and both sets of tickets have to be used within 14 days. You on the other side of the pond get better ticket options.

Finish at Uni then because you won't be so sad to leave

Remember "the husband is always right "

In our house, she who does the planning, picks the itinerary.

I'm not a fan of Uni, so I'd get that out of the way in the beginning and allow more time at WDW to enjoy the parks

Just say with the vacation winding down, lets do one of the WDW parks in a laid back manner not to rush, something you can't really do if your trying to squeeze everything in at Uni

DH and DS Potter Heads and they've never been

Okay I'm a huge Potter Fan as well so I would want to see Potter first! Why wait and continue to build up the anticipation? Will you be able to enjoy Disney know that Hogwarts is waiting for you at the end of the trip?

 

[RandomPrincess]

I'm assuming you tracked how crowed it will be each day and wanted to give the low crowd days so the can get the most out of their Potter time.

When ever my husband asks why we are doing certain parks on certain days I always say lower crowds.

Get him drunk, get him to agree, put it on video

When I was little my Mom lived for her kids so she would have left it up to the little ones especially on vacation. She would never even consider being selfish. Have you guys ever been to Universal? Chances are if you go first then they are going to want to go back. I say majority rules!

 

[sgtmgd]

Hit universal and get it out of the way, as a man we have to know our limitations, that said....I'd hold out for some concession not to printed and then roll over and agree to the wife's plan. I'D NEVER admit such a thing of course

Update we might go with UNI AP with blackout dates so we might have to do UNI last to save money. SHHHHHHHHHHH I'll let him think it was his idea and get a piece of Disney jewelry out of it

At least you are planning together. Our planning is we both decide where we are going. I do all the planning work, trying to get input but getting answers like, "I'm not sure", "It's so far away", "I'll look at it later" then the day before we leave he looks at everything and asks a million questions I already tried to discuss with him and he tries to change half the trip. We end up doing what I originally planned.

Other than wanting 2 ADRs, which parks first and a day for Kennedy all he knows is 95 south LOL

Breaking with tradition and staying 7 nights at the Contemporary then 7 nights at HRH this trip-ending at Uni and staying there longer than usual. Our Disney days are long and packed (in a very good, excited way!!) but we found being onsite at Uni meant a 'slower pace' with express passes, everything within walking distance and also just less rigid plans, which is what we wanted for the end of our hols. Will see how it goes.

Ending at Magic Kingdom is wonderful. Hang back when everyone else leaves, get a dog or ice cream sandwich, then find a seat and watch the castle. The park gets quiet fairly quickly as the guests leave and it is magical to sit, watch, and listen. And, about 30 min after the park closes, the castle lights up with a "Goodnight Kiss." Just a lovely way to end a trip.

How do you enjoy sleeping with Jarvis?

I rather finish in my happy place also!!!! Would never do UNI last. Either beginning or middle (we did middle last time).

so is universal not a happy place? i would rather sip a brew in diagon alley so i REMEMBER the most immersive experience you can currently get in Florida....period.

Nope not mine or my DH's happy place by any means and yes he is a Harry Potter fan etc. He enjoyed that part of Universal's parks but that was about it. Lol Oh and we did enjoy Finnegan's restaurant but still nowhere I'm dying to go back to nor he is wanting to go back anytime soon. We will go again I'm sure but definately will never finish a trip there on purpose. Lol
