The Gang's (almost) All Here Pre-Trip Report
Been awhile since I've spent a week in WDW (2 years actually) so here goes...
Cast of Characters:
Me-42 life long lover of WDW, business owner, stressed out...always, lives North of ATL
Mom-My mom 67, lives in Phoenix
Dad-My Dad-68, lives with her :)
Jeff-My brother-39, hard working dad lives South of Atlanta
Jennifer-SIL, Jeff's wife, hard working mom and also works full time
Bailey-Niece 11 years old-a Disney pro
Colton-Nephew-7 years old-also a pro
Unfortunately hubby is staying home to work and hold down our business. He's regretting that decision a little but also knows that 8 days with us crazies is a little much since he didn't grow up "Disney" like we did.
Also as a side note hubby and I are moving to the area early next year so I'm hoping my mindset can be a little less on the crazy renegade Disney side and more on the "I sure need a vacation" mode (for once.)
We are splitting the trip up a bit with me and mom and dad arriving on Tuesday and then the rest of the family not coming in til Saturday (for their Fall break.) We are all staying in 2 DVC Studio units at the Poly. It's been over 20 years since I have stayed there and those units look very nice. Mom and Dad and I in one and the rest of the family in another.
I've been in charge of planning and made our ADRs 180 days ago (it was esp tricky for the nights with the group of 7.) We are trying some new places (Boma, Turf Club) as well as family favorites (Chefs de France, The Wave, Ohana, Hollywood and Vine, Tuto Italian and Chef Mickey.)
Hope to update daily starting Tuesday/Wed!
