disney planning
Below you’ll find my blog posts talking about planning our various trips to Disney parks (mostly Walt Disney World). Mostly me trying to figure out where I want to eat.

DISNEY!
Our trip has really sneaked up on us. I guess because I’ve been so busy. Just suddenly last week I realized we are 3 weeks out from our first trip of the year! We got our magic bands week before last… (Also, my Leia and Chewie tsumtsums!) We are trying to get some of the magic band colours we don’t…

#MouseEarsforaYear
So I’ve already been doing some Disney plannings for our trips next year. Mostly just looking at dates, and making some dining reservations! We are doing a short solo trip early next year; for that trip I’ve booked… 1. Be Our Guest – breakfast! We’ve eaten here for lunch and dinner, but breakfast started right before or right after our…

All kinds of fun
All kinds of fun stuff in my inbox today. 1. I got my MidSouthCon schedule! You can see me at 3 panels over the weekend. I’ll post it up here closer to then. 2. Signed & sent back the release to Marvel for their call for Agent Carter cosplayers. Yay! 3. Disney Movie Club finally got me. After years of…

Sorry
Sorry to anybody digging through my blog lately. For one thing, I know it’s a mess because I haven’t kept up with tags. Secondly, I must seem like a crazy person with my crazy happy Disney posts followed by my crazy sad Indy posts. That’s just my life right now. I’ve gone through and hidden a lot of my sad…

Hat Watch
Mickey’s hand and more of the Sorcerer’s Hat gone today at Disney’s Hollywood Studios pic.twitter.com/wAtrYbBBX5 — WDW News Today (@WDWNT) January 22, 2015 I’m hoping there’s a clear view of the theater by the time we get there…. fingers crossed. I check everyday for updates on the demolition!

Disney excitement
I desperately need some Disney in my life right now. I’m so glad we have this trip coming up. Disney package paid for – check! Rental car booked – check! Dining reservations made – check! Universal tickets bought – doing that tomorrow! Getting there: As I probably mentioned before, we’re driving for the first time this trip. I haven’t driven…

My Disney Book
I’ve kept myself busy this week creating a little guidebook for our Disney trip (26 days!). At Barnes and Noble last year I saw this adorable tiny Disney guidebook – it was small enough to carry in a pocket, and had neat fold out maps and everything. And I really wanted it. Not that I necessarily needed the information… but…

Diiiiiiiiiidny
So, a few thoughts…. 1. We booked our Fastpasses! Friday night (technically Saturday morning – Orlando time) I logged in and booked our fastpasses. There wasn’t a TON we wanted to do, since Chase isn’t big on rides and most everything else we’ve done a lot. We just missed the Mine Train when we went earlier this year, so that…

Disney World
Dragoncon mode: off. Disneyworld mode: engaged. Disney trip 2015 – booked! We are going in February this time around. 5 day trip. We’d picked our dates a few weeks ago, and when we went to book – surprise, they’d just announced free dining for that time period! So we booked, got the free dining, though we upgraded it to the…

The Red Folder
I’ve had this red leather folder I use for travel. I think my aunt gave it to me before I left for Dragoncon 2003 – or SDCC 2004? I know it was one of the two. Since then, I’ve used it for every major trip I’ve taken. Everytime I go to put stuff in it it’s always got the last…

I have 2 modes
I have 2 modes: 1. DragonCon mode 2. DisneyWorld mode I am one or the other at any given point. Obviously before DragonCon I’m in DragonCon mode. And right before our Disney trip (like now) I’m in Disney mode. Whichever one I’m in, it’s all I can think about it and I know people get tired of hearing me talk…

FastPass Barf
So this morning I got to go make our FastPass+ reservations and I was all excited… until I actually started trying to make reservations. Part of this I’m going to chalk up the fact I didn’t completely do my research. I read about it partly; and I made some assumptions on how it worked. Some of it is just the…

Oooh Disney stuff!!
What is this?? A disney box in the mail?? But it’s too soon for our magic bands! Hmm. A Mickey Mouse flash drive!! It lights up!! A message from Edna Mode about MyMagic+ And the back of the book has a magnet with all of our important dates on it! Very nice. Now I want my Magic Bands.

Disney Excitement
I have developed a code system so I can relate to Chase how excited I am about our upcoming Disney trip. Code Purple: The moment when we agree we can start planning our next trip. Code Blue: The quiet moment of joy that comes when we’ve paid off our trip. Code Yellow: Those moments when you’re thinking about something else…

Me & Walt
I love how whenever I get emails from WDW about our reservation, gmail shortens the conversation so it looks like this: Yeh, just me and Walt talking about my vacation, nbd.
