Pre-Trip Here, in this hostile world, my story begins....

***Judy Dench or Jeremy Irons voice over optional


It takes (what feels like), 15,000 years to come up with my next bright idea: planning a trip for my wife and her mom so my wife would catch the Disney vacation bug and want to buy an AP! There was only one small problem, when they visit, I will have to stay behind.

Now, lets move ahead to the present in Atlanta, Georgia, because something is about to happen that will change the course of my future. I was digitally pounding reeds flat (typing on my computer) to create better record keeping plans for their February travels, finances, and unfortunately my own calendar plans which did not include me being at WDW. But it also brought with it the dawn of a great WDW trip in April!

At this point, my wife and MIL had taken over the trip I planned and I would have to stay home, which most of you already understand why. But my wife, who is as clever as a Phoenician came up with a solution! To create and plan a simple, relaxing trip in April to WDW for just us. Remember how easy it was to breeze through my last trip report full of beer pictures and swollen puffy eyes? Thank my wife- she invented this upcoming trip that will allow you to experience a brand new one!


Ok, ok, enough SE dialogue, lol. Lets get to it! As some of you have read in my other PTR, my wife and her mom are visiting in Feb which was a trip that took several changes and lots of waiting for an all clear from the Doctor. Giving away a Disney trip is not an easy thing to do, but they definitely need it and I will get "good husband" credit points for being so generous, hahaha! I was planning on cashing in my credit points to convince my wife to let me buy a 4 wheeler, but as she was planning their trip she asked if it would be ok if she got an AP. My response; Dilly Dilly!!! She was happy and she immediately asked if we could plan a trip in the Spring since it has been appx two yeas since we visited together. Another Dilly Dilly was in order. I was back to digitally pounding reeds flat on my computer and soon after I had trip booked!!

Who: My wife and I

Where: 5 nights at BWV studio room.

The Boardwalk Resorts are are favorites (with AKL a close second). We spend a majority of our time in WS but I have a feeling that we will be in AK a lot this trip to try all the new food and booze offerings. She will get to experience it with her mom soon and that will help with planning our trip once she is more familiar.

You can also find us at Tune In Lounge early in the morning enjoying adult beverages

Another favorite of ours is Crews Cup Lounge. Here is my wife reminding me that I am #1

So much love!!! lol.

We have no yet started to plan any ADR's but are it looks like we have rain moving int Atlanta today which is dashing our plans of hitting the Atlanta Beer Fest taking place today. So the new plan is to find a good selection of craft brew, crank up Youtube and the MDE app make some plans this evening!

Updates coming soon. Thanks for following along everyone!

We caught an Uber from Swan over to Poly to have a few drinks before MK. I had received a message from the Embassador of O-Town herself and that she would be in the area and we were hoping to meet up! C and I arrived and soon after I was greeted by the President of the Florida chapter of Tambooo Lounge , the one and only @blgauger and she even brought the Golf Guru too!

With members of the Georgia and Florida council of Tambooo present, there was a "must do" picture in order.

Your post is perfect. I've said it once and I'll say it again... I'm SOOOO happy that we got to meet you and C! We had a blast and can't wait until you come back (*ahem* move here) to do it again! ;)

C and I had a great time! We can't wait to see you guys again. I will continue to work on convincing her to move down here! But at least we will be travelling more often with DVC so either way we will see you soon!

We were planning on going to AK this morning but with Pandora closed yesterday I guess they handed so many anytime FP's that you can't even book any FP on MDE. It's gonna be a madhouse over there I bet. We decided on HS for the morning.

I went over to News and Rumors forums to be sure that @krisri18 got credit for being the first to report Pandora was down. The OP had it listed as closed at 3 pm so I channelled my @Tuvalu skills and corrected them! We can not have inaccurate information being spread! :) But seriously, it was strange that both FoP and NRJ we're down all day. I wonder what could cause that.

Anyway.. good morning from the Boardwalk

Thanks @wdisney9000 ! Gotta keep the facts straight!
We will be part of the crazies attempting to use our fast passes today for FOP. We're on the bus now, we shall see how bad it is. We wouldn't even attempt it but @NessNewt has never been on and we promised her we'd try!
