We play a game where my DW and DD9 will each try to guess without going over the wait times of each ride. They alternate on who guesses first. It's a fun way to pass the time.
Nice! :thumbsup: I'll have to try that to pass time at the airport!Quote:

one in particular is Disneybound.tumblr.com she uses Disney characters, movies, songs, resorts, and just about anything else disney to inspire very cool outfits.
When I am really homesick I like to go through my closet and see if I have any clothes that can be made into a disney outfit for my next trip :mickey:
add another one, was checking rates for my next potential trip when realized planning my next vacation happens a lot more when I miss WDW.
Sidenote, when I booked my rental last trip Avis' website shows you a little video showing MCO, and walks you through the terminals, through counters, parking garages, and out the roads towards I-4 and the toll roads. Very informative and helpful for first time travellers but even more fun for hardcore fans like me who even consider the trip to and from the airport part of the experience/
As I mentioned in this thread already, I like to listen to a lot of the BG & attraction music. Well, I just got a hold of the Pre-Illuminations music & it just makes you miss being there that much worse. :sad:
Go to the magic kingdom for the entire day.. That always makes me feel better
Conveniently, I work with children and they're never upset when I pick a Disney movie for Friday movie day, or if I throw on some Disney music while they play!
But there's always Intercot! And trip planning! And the Netflix Disney specials! Oooh! So much fun! Only about 2.5 months left for me! :D
WDW websites, forums, podcasts, online WDW music, YouTube videos, various iPhone apps ad planning for the next trip
As usual my list is a little off the wall ‘Go figure’
Add extra chlorine to my swimming pool so I can smell it while sitting out on the deck: It reminds me of the smell at the pools and the Water Parks.
Make some grilled Rueben sandwiches’: It reminds me of the Reuben’s at the CBR
Call the Disney reservation number just to put on hold and listen to the music while I wait. Then when a person answers ask any question I can think of just to hear at the end of our conversation: “HAVE A MAGICAL DAY”
Home made Dole Whips and Turkey legs!
Take a shower and dry off with one of the AKL resort towels that found their way into my luggage last trip. ( Yeh right like you’ve never taken any!)
When the above doesn’t work make a pitcher of LONG ISLAND ICE TEA and just try to forget.
This happens on a weekly basis …………….
:marg::marg::marg:
Besides youtubing everything, I also enjoy reading peoples trip reports. My 3 year old also watches our last trip video EVERY day so we enjoy doing that as well. I made him a calendar of pics from that trip too so every morning we look at it and talk about the picture and what we are doing in it.
We watch those free park planning DVDs that you can get through the mail. :)
Make Disney crafts with the family.
One summer we had a Disney day at home! We had games, Disney coloring contest, guess what Disney song was playing, I even set up an It's a small world ride with a little tykes wagon and dolls for my son and niece and nephew while playing the It's a small world music. They had a blast! I also set up a meet and greet area where i had the Disney stuffed animals change and we would pose for pictures with the characters. We ended the day with sparklers which was my version of Disney fireworks!
Another silly and easy idea is to put Disney soap in your bathroom so when you use it you are brought back to your resort! I always take some home with me to do just that!
Go to the library and take out Disney planning books. Plan your next trip!
I thought of this thread this morning as I used the last of the shampoo and conditioner I brought back from the hotel. When I miss Disney - I use their bath products. That smell is Disney to me for some reason. This next trip I've already decided to buy 2 bottles of the Shower Gel because it will be a while before we go back again.

Geeky - But, I watch a youtube vid of each ride at a certain park. I watch them in the order I would try to ride them at that park. You get to get a small feel like you are there. Better than nothing!:mickey:
yeah, break out these when the mood strikes me! keep them for when i need themQuote:

Then a few weeks go by, regular life settles back in and I'm yearning to go back again. When I'm there, I have no stress or anxiety about anything. I am completely at ease. I feel so calm and so happy.
I try and you tube videos of rides and watch those. Of course intercot helps too. And I love sorcerer radio, Disney music 24/7!! I talk to DH about when we will be going back, for now, we are thinking October 2013 for food and wine. In the meantime, we are looking forward to going to Grand Cayman in November 2012!! :pixie:
I have many remedies for homesickness, but only one cure.
The remedies include visiting this site, listening to music, but most importantly for me is to plan another trip, even if it is uncertain.
Three things come to mind that keep us in the 'Mickey Mood' in between trips:
1. My DW occasionally breaks out a recipe from her Disney cookbook and whips up something that brings those yummy WDW tastes and smells right to our kitchen table
2. We play 20 questions having to do with the world....I'm thinking of character, attraction, etc. etc. Come to think of it, we've done this one on our drives down to pass the I95 miles!!
3. We search for hidden Mickeys....you would be AMAZED how many of these :mickey:
you can discover with a little imagination sprinkled in :pixie:
I read trip reports on Intercot. They almost make me feel like I'm there.
I typically turn on WDW park music from various sites. Then I'll watch the countless hours of footage I've take from previous trips. I love that part.
