Pre-Trip This most likely won't happen, but ya never know. (Edit: Yep, it's happening!)

First of all, I have never been so thankful for a forum because if it wasn't for this site, I would have missed out the chance of seeing GMR before it closed. So, thank you @wdwmagic for providing us with such a good Disney Fandom Kingdom and also want to thank the insiders for providing us with the info, @marni1971 and all the others!:joyfull:

In saying all that, I talked with DH last night about SSE and the possibility of it closing. We weren't planning on taking a Disney trip this year, but after hearing SSE could be closing, DH told me that we would take a trip up there just so we could ride it several times. Apparently this is one of his favorites.

So, here goes another wack at a Pre-Trip report. I say wack because to anyone who read my last and first pre-trip report, I am so sorry. I am usually very organized, but I tend to change my mind often for trips.


However, this is going to be a very short trip and there hasn't been a go ahead from DH as of yet. That is where my title comes in to play because honestly this most likely won't happen, but ya never know.

Here are the plans and yes it is another spreadsheet:bookworm:
348406


I can't go to Disney without going to the Magic Kingdom or the Polynesian.😢

Fingers crossed we will get to do this
🤞

Yay for 32 days... did you make any ADR's? Fast passes? do tell!


We have one cat that we are pretty sure had diabetes... so we feed him wet food several times a day as well.
Yes! We have the ADRs down and Fast Passes, and I am glad to share!😄
Thanks @Rista1313 for keeping me on track!☺

That's it guys! I will say a quick caveat to all of this is that we do have park hoppers each day. We don't currently intend to do a lot of "park-hopping" but that is always subject to change while we are there. I will let you know and document it the best I am able!

That ride is so worth it... you could always keep looking for him... my friend got one for the morning by looking the night before while people were rearranging their schedules.

You know... I don't think we really need hoppers, but I'm guessing the next time we go we may. We got the free dining and it was a caveat to getting it. And since were winging it for ADRs most days, it might behoove us to have it this time.

Unfortunately DH even gets woozy on Soarin' and doesn't like to ride it. I can handle Soarin' but put us both on something like Mission Space (which we did once and only once), then that is it for us. Yet, we can ride roller coasters all day. It doesn't make sense.😕

I'm so glad things worked out! My last trip, it felt like the Universe was trying to tell me that maybe it wasn't meant to be. But I can be pretty persuasive :)

The plans so far look great! I have yet to ride FoP, so I feel your disappointment there. Looks like I'll miss you by a few days. I'll be Food and Gardening from March 30th to April 2nd.

Your plans look great, I'm so happy for you it all worked out in the end and I'm already looking forward to reading your TR.
On a side note, I cruise with Norwegian every 18 months or so and really enjoy it. It's reasonably budget friendly and because you have the freedom to eat when you want, you can avoid the crowds with a bit of planning. I always stay in an inside cabin but there are plenty of quiet places on deck to sit and relax.

We are still talking of a doing a cruise because it does sound so relaxing. :inlove:

And that part about eating:hungry:

Just a suggestion, you have Haunted Mansion at 930 end of the day, you might want to switch that to the afternoon so you can get more fast passes later in the day, even if you want to ride HM after dinner, you will probably be able to get a fast pass same day after you used your three up, just a suggestion

There's probably going to be a lot of FP changes throughout each day since we have park-hoppers, lol. (Don't worry I will takes notes for the TR. 😜)

However for Haunted Mansion, I have always wanted to ride this last and at night to add to the spookiness of it. ;) But things can easily change! Thanks for the suggestion.

Callum (our tuxedo cat) says hi and wants to check out what is in the box too!

Also, if you look very closely in the picture, you can see a white and black kitty (Marble) in the background photo-bombing this picture.

And this is my husband, Doc 😊
