Is there anything else I need to do right now?

Our trip is booked, the deposit is made, the ADRs are made...

I'm saving a lot of the day-to-day planning for a time when our trip gets a little closer. (I hate planning it all and then having nothing to do! )

My question is - is there anything I'm forgetting at this point? We're a little over 100 days out. Is there anything else I should be planning/reserving?

We will be using ME, and we're waiting for a good airfare to pop up.

I feel like I should be doing something, but I can't find anything to do!

What about watching some WDW videos on YouTube? My girls and I love doing that!

You could also get yourself in the Disney spirit by going to see Pirates next week! That's what I'm going to do!

Hope you're able to get good airfare. We'll be there about the same time as you, and I just booked ours last week. We got $79 each way from Detroit! Yahoo! (Course, now I should turn off the DING feature so I don't see if something better comes up!)

Haha, believe me I would LOVE to obsess non-stop for the next 116 days! (I'm pretty good at it! )

But lately, I have been so busy that I constantly forget we are going to WDW...it's great! When I remember, it's like an awesome surprise! So I'm hoping to keep it that way for a while.

Did I mention I work at a movie theater now? I will be working when Pirates opens this weekend.... It should be fun and exciting, but somehow I'm very pouty that I won't get to see it immediately when it opens!

Did you guys decide if you're taking the wee little thing (aka Alice) with you?

Not yet.

It's like this constantly wavering thing. We want to, we don't want to, we want to.......! Oy!

We're definitely leaning towards no, however. We will most likely get to take Alice to Disneyland in October (when we head to Cali for a friend's wedding), so we're thinking that WDW should be just us.

Hey Dizzy, will you be doing any special activities, like surfing lessons, or a boat excursion? Any after-hours parties?

I don't think so...at least we haven't planned any! I'm not sure we will have time this trip.

It is a lot of fun! I just started last week, but I'm already having a blast. If I can't be working at Disneyland right now, I think this was a good second choice!

I'm just excited you have a WDW countdown! I know you have wanted to go back for a long time, I'm happy it's finally happening for you.

Thank you DT! I am sooooo happy too!

There have actually been a few times lately where I thought about canceling and using the money for something else, but I realized how important this trip is to both of us. It will be worth every single penny!
