Hi, everyone! I'm (sort of) new here, and haven't really met anyone, so I will start out by introducing myself.
My name is Brittany, I'm 24 years old, and I'm married to my best friend, James, who is 26. We got married young, and alot of people said we wouldn't last, but here we are, still married 5 years later, and blissfully happy!
This trip is more than just an anniversary trip. We will be in Disney World from September 13th through the 18th. James' birthday is the 16th, our anniversary is the 17th, and it's both of our first time coming to Disney World. We'll be celebrating my birthday early, too, which is September 29th.
So, we've got a lot to celebrate this year!
We officially booked our trip in February, we're staying at the POFQ. Originally we had thought about the CBR, but decided the smaller size of the POFQ would better suit us, it looks very laid back - just like us!
We had also originally booked the Deluxe Dining Plan, but decided to downgrade to the regular dining plan, and then the day after that, the regular plan was announced to be free, so we took advantage of that!
The restaurants we have ADRs for are:
Tony's Town Square (First night's dinner)
Teppan Edo (Second night's dinner)
Yak and Yeti (Third night's dinner)
Le Cellier (James' birthday dinner)
Coral Reef (Anniversary dinner)
Our daily plans are pretty much centered around our ADRs...
Monday 13th: Magic Kingdom
Tuesday 14th: Hollywood Studios then Epcot
Wednesday 15th: Animal Kingdom then Downtown Disney
Thursday 16th: Epcot
Friday 17th: Either Magic Kingdom or Hollywood Studios, then Epcot.
Saturday 18th: Winging it.
Our basic plan of attack is going to be to grab fast passes for the E-ticket rides, and try to ride as much as possible before it gets too terribly hot. We've lived in Georgia most of our lives, so we're used to the Southern heat. When it gets too hot, or too crowded in ride lines, we will then take advantage of the indoor shows.
We don't (think) we care too much for watching the parades, but know we want to catch all the fireworks shows. Wishes, Illuminations, and Fantasmic.
I know that compared to nearly everyone else's pre-trip reports mine is about as exciting as watching paint dry... if ONLY you could feel how excited I am on the inside.
I told my sister in law today that I am completely prepared to bawl my eyes out like a child infront of thousands of people when I first lay my eyes on Cinderella Castle.
If anyone has any tips or suggestions about how to sprinkle a little extra pixie dust on our anniversary or his birthday... please let me know!
