Ah... This reminds me of last year when I finished booking my Disneyland trip.
Trust me... Everyone goes through this phase. I dealt with it in many ways.
Here's a list to that'll help you cope with the pre-Disney "jumpies":
1.) Shop for all of your vacation needs! This includes wardrobe, accessories, and other vacation necessities.
2.) Watch Disney Movies! Nothing brings you closer to the parks than actually watching the movies! Pretty soon, you're going to live the adventures portrayed on film! It's also nice to refresh your memory with lesser known Disney Classics as well.
3.) Sign up to D-COT! d-cot.com is probably one of the best places to listen to Disney Parks audio! You can try d-cot or just make a playlist of all your favorite Disney Park tunes on YouTube.
Listen to your playlists when you're driving or tidying up the house; it makes it much more exciting!
4.) Don't over-plan, unless you have to! I literally spend hours making schedules, checklists, and itineraries for each day that I was going to spend at the parks. The truth is, nothing really goes to plan at all. We mainly just went with the flow.
5.) Make your ADRs and Fastpass+ Reservations! On the contrary on what I just said, I also highly suggest that you do some planning. ADRs are almost necessary at WDW, and restaurants are constantly being booked, so make your dining reservations as soon as possible. The same goes with FP+.
And finally 6.
Stay posted and keep visiting WDWMagic for Disney Discussion and Theme Park news!
I'm sure you'll have a great time! Make sure to make a Trip Report when you get back!
