2017 Fall Planning

[cshell624]

Hi everyone and !

With the possibility of FD dropping soon, I thought I would go ahead and start a thread so once it does everyone can continue to plan their trips together. Besides, there's still so much to talk about: ADRs, FPs, park days and more. I hope everyone finds this thread helpful, friendly and fun. Happy planning everyone!!!

Great idea.. just reading the other thread I got some great ideas to try new things... the drawing class at art of animation. My dd would love that.. thinking of trying the Cinderella dinner at 1900 park fare. We haven't met the prince or step sister&step mom.

I loved this thread last year! It's so much fun to plan with people who get excited about all things Disney!

Checking in. Nov-Dec.
I was thinking from the Free dining thread, we have so many good questions that were asked and answered multiple times. However, that thread was moving too fast. Maybe we should create a little chart and have it posted on the first post? And links to other posts about Halloween and Christmas special things?

We love the art classes. Unless they have changed something, the times should be 11:00, 2:00 and 5:00 daily. We really enjoyed the dinner at 1900 and the stepsisters are lots of fun!

We've added meeting BB8 to our list of things to do this trip too!

 

[JadeDarkstar]

I did not know about BB8 now I will have to add that to the list.

Hi everyone! I'll be at WDW with my family (DH, DS8, DS11) and another family who we are close friends with, Nov 3-11. Staying offsite this time at Windsor Hills (kids all wanted to stay together in a house with pool, game room, etc). I'm not SUPER excited about offsite....we have done it before, but I prefer onsite. But we'll be at Disney....so it's a blast no matter what!

Excited to be here planning fall trips with all of you! Now if they would just release Nov park hours.....!

 

[katriscari]

We will be there for our first adults only trip 10/14-10/17

Hi! We will be at WDW in mid September to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary. I told our kids instead of the usual celebration party...I wanted us all to go to WDW and take grandkids for first time. So there will be 5 adults and 6 & 8 year old girls. So I am super excited. We have not been there in 15 years. I am using a TA for 1st time ever. I am a little nervous about that. We do have reservations for several character dining, including Cinderella's Table with the girls having appointments at Biddidi Boddidi Boutique before we go. Like everyone, hoping for free dining so we can do all the character dining we have reserved. But irregardless, we are going to WDW and it will be FABULOUS!

We are going from Sept. 4th to September 14th, staying at POP, 3 families, 6 Adults, 4 kids (10,7,5,3).

One of the families (my Sister in Law & DH with kids aged 7 & 5), they have never been to Disney and worst, they have never being on a plane before!

So exciting for them! (and for us as well, a long trip for us, 5555 miles away from WDW).

The rest of us (DW, DS10, DS3 and my in-laws) have been at WDW (and Orlando) many times already (Celebrating birthdays, anniversaries, etc. including Grandpa turning 70 at WDW this September ).

This board is great, thank you all for the prompt replies to my questions
