Pre-Trip I'm almost there

People down here think I'm crazy but I don't care :joyfull:

Today is Fast Pass day! I started my countdown at over 200 days but I am finally down to 60. I have a few hours before 7am WDW time so I thought I would write a pre trip report.
I want to say a huge THANK YOU to all the wonderful people on here who share their trips, families and love of Disney with me. When real life gets me down it is great to come on here to virtually escape for awhile.
Now on to the trip,

Who? Me :D

My nickname is Mimi, this is me in 2015, the last time I was at the World. That was a trip with a group including some first timers. We had 12 days but because I was the organizer and "expert" I was mostly busy with making sure everyone else was happy and on time to Fp's and ADR's so I didn't get to relax much. I still had an amazing time but this trip will be all about me.:joyfull:

When? 16 till 31st of January.
Travel from Amsterdam to Gatwick on 16 January, spend the night at an airport hotel, fly to MCO on 17 January.

Where?

(Got this image of the internet)
I have rented DVC points to stay 15 nights in a deluxe studio with Savannah view. I am so excited to be staying here, I fell in love with AKL on my first visit to Jiko in 2011. It feels very decadent staying in a deluxe resort as it is just me in the room but I decided to treat myself. I can't wait to drink my coffee on the balcony while looking at the animals.

Why? It has been 2 years since my last visit and I miss the magic also

I will be turning 41on the 21st.

I am not planning a whole lot for my 14 days in the parks. I do have a few ADR's and I will book Fast Passes for every day but I will play it by ear and see what I feel like doing.

I got my passports out and I went through my foreign money box today. I still had $135 from my last visit to the States, woohoo, that's a nice cupcake budget.:D
An unexpected windfall, better than winning lotto! It's always good to have lots of $1 notes left from previous trips for tipping all the various people that need tipping on arrival in the US.

Very true, I actually have $18 in singles and I will make sure I have them in my pocket for easy access.

Yay a live trip report to brighten the days - looking forward to it!
I think I will copy a page out of your trip report by mostly letting the photos do the talking. English isn't my first language and I am not a gifted writer in any language so I worry about boring people with my weird grammar and dry narrating.

So many of us will be there at the same time!! We have dinner ADRs at Sanaa one night, maybe we'll run into each other... I'll be on the lookout! A very merry (early) un-birthday to you, it will be awesome celebrating in the parks! Have a safe flight!!

Thank you! So many Magic forum people will be there. I wish someone would organize a quick meet up for a photo and/or chat. It would probably be tricky with everyone's different schedule :hilarious:
Please say Hi if you see me wondering around somewhere soaking up the magic.:)
