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?

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 Fast Passes for all 14 days, I decided to get 4 for FoP after reading so many rave reviews. If for some reason I don't like the ride or if it makes me feel sick I will cancel the other 3 to hopefully make someone else happy.
After getting FoP fast passes I decided to finally watch Avatar yesterday so now I am even more excited to see Pandora.:happy:

Sitting at the airport as my trip is over so now looking at other reports!

So pleased you have a trip planned

I need some details on renting Dec points to travel - how do you do that? Any advice appreciated.

And you won’t be disappointed with FOP - I think you did the right thing getting that many FP as you can always cancel but it will be unlikely you will even be able to change the timers of the ones you have in 2 weeks time.

I am sad your trip is over @Longers :( I totally feel your pain and I will miss your daily updates.
I hope you have/had a good journey back to the UK.
I rented points from a Dis member that had good reviews and a long history on the board. It was an easy process and I got exactly what I wanted.

Looking forward to your report! Have a great time!
Thank you! I love reading your trip reports and will do my best to write one myself. :)

Exciting! I'm in!

FoP is awesome...you won't regret tha many FPs:D

I am so happy I managed to get 4 FoP fast passes, I have park hopper so I can just go to AK for FoP and a few other favorites as I don't think I want to spend 4 full days there.
