    Staying at POP May 16-24. Did the 3 days for free. Doing Park Hopper passes for the first time ever. Booked the trip through Debbie at Magical Journeys. Will be calling on Sunday to get all of our ADR's and set up the Princess Boutique.

    The trip became real to me today, called Southwest Airlines and got the plane tickets. Taking the kids on their first plane ride, this should be interesting lol.

    94 days

    135435 minutes
    8126110 seconds

    I'm sure with as much time as I have between now and the trip, the wife and I will tinker with this to make it as close to perfect as we can.

    I'm sure I'll do plenty of updating for all of those who love reading these things as much as I do.

    Nothing better than Park Hoppers to give you real freedom to move between the parks. Don't recommend it but we have made 3 or all 4 parks in a single day and sometimes it can be fun! Draining......but fun!

    Talking Park hopper passes

    I am glad that you got park hoppers. We like to go to Animal Kingdom (they close early) and then that night, we go Illuminations at the World Showcase. Then we go to Magic Kingdom for part the day, then over to Hollywood Studios. So we split our time. It works well. We couldn't do four parks in one day. We are to old for that now. But we can split two parks. It is good to have a park hopper pass. We couldn't be without it.
    Keep smiling and Have a magical day!!!
    It's all good.

    We love to serve fun, food, and deliciousness.

    That all sounds absolutely lovely. I cannot wait to read the trip report from this one. Have you by any chance read the menus for Cinderella's Royal table. I am just curious.

    Park Fare is one of our favorites.

    Have an awesome trip! The best part, for us, is the lead up to the the trip and getting excited and ready to go. The trip is just the icing on the cake!

    HAVE A GREAT TIME!
