Hi, everyone! My name is Freckles.
I have been a member of WDWMagic for a couple months now, collecting as much info as I could for our trip to Disney World in December! My hubby and I usually take a trip around this time of the year to somewhere to celebrate early Christmas, our wedding anniversary, my birthday, and this year we decided to go to WDW!! It will be my first trip to WDW!!
I am SO EXCITED!!!!!! :sohappy: :sohappy:
Anyway, here is our pre-trip plan. If you have any suggestions to my plans, please let me know.
::: The Cast :::
Me, Freckles (27) - Turning 28. I have been to TDL when I was 3 or 4. I wish I can remember something that I have done there, but I can't... :dazzle:
Hubby, James (30) - He has been to WDW once or twice when he was a teen. That's back when DHS was MGM and there was no AK. He was very disappointed when he found out that "Mr. Toad's Wild Ride" is now replaced with "The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh." Not that he has any thing against Winnie the Pooh. He just could not believe that Mr. Toad is GONE from MK!
::: The Plan :::
Day 1 - 12/6 - Leave Atlanta, GA and drive to see James' Dad in St. Augustine, FL (about 5hr 45min drive). We haven't seen them in a while, so it will be nice
Day 2 - 12/7 - Leave St. Augustine, drive to Orlando (about 2hr drive). Check in @Coronado Springs. Chill, look around the resort, and go to MK! EMH in the PM, so we can stay there late!! Our first ride will be WDW Railroad. We are planning to get a reservation @Crystal Palace for dinner that night. Looking forward to see Pooh and Tigger! Hopefully we will not be too tired before Wishes firework @8pm...
Day 3 - 12/8 - Visiting AK! Looking forward to see some animals that wouldn't be seen in Atlanta and ride on Kilimanjaro Safaris and Expedition Everest. Thinking about Picnic in the Park for lunch (free reusable bag, right?). I'm not sure what we should do for dinner that night though... Maybe head to DTD and eat @Bongos Cuban Cafe?? Did anyone had any good experience there?
Day 4 - 12/9 - Visiting EPCOT! Looking forward to ride on Soarin', Spaceship Earth, Test Track, etc, but THE main thing that I am excited about EPCOT is the World Showcase. I hope we can go through every country in one day!! We are planning to have lunch or dinner @Biergarten. My hubby will be getting some beer there. If you have any suggestions on good beer there, please let us know We will be also attending Candle Light Processional and IllumiNation at night.
Day 5 - 12/10 - Visiting DHS! Lots of attractions there. Muppet*3D Vision, Rock 'n Roller Coaster, Studio Backlot Tour, Magic of Disney Animation, Toy Story Mania, Beauty and the Beast... Of course we cannot forget about Fantasmic neither! Planning to make a reservation @Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater for late lunch/early dinner, so we can try to get good seats for the show.
Day 6 - 12/11 - My 28th Birthday!!!! I am not sure which park we will be visiting this day, but I am *hoping* to get a reservation @California Grill for my birthday dinner. Looking for a cute outfit for this special night.
Day 7 - 12/12 - Going Home.... Nooooooooo!!!!!!!!
I hope I can convince my hubby to stay around until early in the PM, so we can stay a little bit longer...
Other than visiting each park, we are hoping to visit some of the Deluxe Resorts for Christmas decorations throughout the vacation :xmas: I am so excited to see lots of Christmas decoration all over the World!!
Thank you for reading my pre-trip plan
