I get a similar response when people find out I'm going for my 21st but I don't really care anymore!
And why not plan in advance - might as well extend the magic
I love the boys' shirts!

What up with people not understanding us
That the way I feel now it's what I want to do.
I'm super excited about this trip
Thank you !!

Didn't win the boots on eBay
Will get a pair I'm sure

That's the difficulty isn't it. We're doing 3 trips in total in 12 months. First one being DD's birthday, so we had planned a huge budget for food so we could do what we wanted with no worries. But then the second trip was with DLP newbies the parents in law, and now this trip is our final one (probably for a good 4 years!! Gulp!! Unless there's any mad deals that appear in the meantime....!!) So again it's a case of making the most while we can. Luckily we can just about do every restaurant we want to - we've kept hotel prices down which help too....

It IS your 40th though, so I hope you're making sure you do the restaurants your REALLY want to do??

Thank you so much! Although it's saying her store is closed for now but will keep my eye out for hopeful reopening in the future!

Not many tips for Halloween but the band that play the disney tunes at the open air theatre round the back/side of the castle is pretty good and the show that Mickey and Co put on there! Also, after the show that they hold in front of the castle still happens at Halloween, try and get somewhere near the stage, the characters all walk past and interact with the kids briefly which is great and the pumpkin people give out little packs of sweets If I think of anything else I will let you know! Oh, try and visit Jack Skellington and Sally near the Phantom Manor, they are absolutely brilliant and are so 'in character'!

 

[ILOVEDLP]

No problem looks like she just updating stuff.
Like I say I will be ordering again for our next trip .

Thanks for the tips if you do think of any more you know where I hang out

Great dining plans so far - it's hard to be reasonable when it comes to restaurants. We're currently debating where to go… of course it's a bit easier with the free half board!

You make me want to start my own PJ/TR!!!
