Our annual trip was only going to happen if we went in September so we are going late in the month and staying at my least favorite resort. I was able to get 2 rooms for about the price of 1 at AllSports.

Besides my husband and myself, our youngest and her best friend are coming long. Both girls graduate this year so I told them this was an early graduation present. They haven't seen each other in a year so it will be a lot of fun.

Our oldest is a senior in college and didn't want to miss school and will animal sit so even though we will miss her it is nice to know the pets are well taken care of.

We arrive on a Sunday and are taking Magical Express to All Sports. We are going to Kona or an early dinner and a later seating at California Grill to get dessert and watch Wishes.

Monday morning we are starting at EPCOT, have plans for Garden Grill then will either go to the Studios for Fantasmic or stay at EPCOT for Illuminations. The studios are open late that night so I am hoping the girls want to go to Fantasmic.

Tuesday they can sleep in and we are going to Kona for a late lunch then the MK for the Halloween party. Hoping to get into the park
around 4.

Wednesday we are starting out at AK for early opening and going to the Studios and EPCOT for Amy rides that may have been missed. Over to MK for nighttime parade and fireworks.

Thursday is waterpark day or the girls - since both parks are open they can pick. My husband and I will probably head to downtown Disney and Earl of Sandwich. We are meeting at Kona to have dinner with the parents of our daughter friend. They are spending the week at Daytona and driving back to Ohio Thursday night.

We fly out early on Friday.

Checking what was available for dining we didn't get some of our first choices but I think we will be happy with Kona, Garden Grill and our Wishes dessert trip to California Grill. The rest of the time we will get some of our favorite counter service food.

Happy Planning!:thumbsup:

Sounds like you have a very fun trip planned :thumbsup:

My DH and I are going to WDW in September as well, but we arrive on the 11th, so I'm guessing the weather will be a tad cooler during your stay (which is never a bad thing when you're outside all day).

I will post a trip report once we return, so I hope it will have some helpful information for you :)

DD and I will be at AS Sports on the 18th. Maybe we will see you there.

To me, a resort is to swim, sleep, and shower. It is not my first choice, but it will not make much of a difference for the trip.
