It's with extreme excitment that I announce our next trip!!!! DH and I will going to WDW Dec. 11-18! I just found out this moment that they approved my vacation at work, which means we're going! Ahhhhh!!!!

MVMCP here we come. This will be our first time staying at the Yacht Club.

Will anyone from Subsonic be there at this time?! If so, would you like to meet up!?

Yes. Sturday-Dec. 12th thru Sunday Dec. 20th. Staying at the Animal Kingdom Lodge again. We wanted The Wilderness Lodge. Can't meet with you. Sorry, got my hands full. My son and his bride will be meeting us. They are stay'n at one of the All Stars. Besides, I would probably scare you. I am old, fat and UGLY.

Wow, I'm SO jealous! Unfortunately, that is between the time that our APs run out and my sister starts the CP, so we won't have a holiday trip this year

I hope you have fun though!!

We were trying to go around my birthday in Feb. but I don't know if I can get that time off from work, so we said what the heck, if we can go, we're going!!!!!

We LOVE Disney at Christmas!!!

Understandable that you're busy ericpabear, you would not scare me! LOL. I hope you have a wonderful trip!

Thanks spodie! Wish you and Len could go!

I would love to go around this time of year. Work / family gatherings make it difficult to get down there. We do, however, get to go down every January and September / October every year so it makes up for it. My wife and I are now trying to plan our trips while there is an "event" happenning now. I don't need to do the park grind everytime I am there.

Enjoy it Boilerbabe!

I'm so excited for you!! We went 12/13-20/08 and absolutely loved it at Christmas time! You will have so much fun with all the decorations plus Osbourne lights are awesome!! Remember to try to visit some of the hotels to see all the pretty decorations if you have time.

Good stuff boilerbabe, I posted a response in the "how many days..." thread that the holidays are our favorite time of the year down there. We stayed at Beach Club last year and was great with access to Epcot to see the Candlelight Processionals, plus Illuminations has an added special ending. The decorations are great at the 3 resorts (BC, BW, YC). You're gonna have a great time.

Boilerbabe: I'll be arriving as you'll be leaving. Doing a two day trip on 18th and 19th of December. If you haven't done the Candlelight Processional at EPCOT, you gotta see it. The guest narrators for the event during your stay will be:

12/09â€“12/11 â€” Andy Garcia
12/12â€“12/14 â€” Vanesa Williams
12/15â€“12/17 â€” Abigail Breslin
12/18â€“12/20 â€” Whoopi Goldberg

There also have dinner packages with priority seating too, but I don't know what wil be available. You can call 407-WDW-DINE to find out. For more details about it, check on Disney's website:

Thanks mindlfipper! We were supposed to do the Candlelight Processional on our honeymoon, but ended up canceling. We did see the narrators and it's definitely worth looking into!!!! I hope you have a great trip!

Thanks for all the well wishes everyone! We're closer and closer......

Dang! Why are always the good ones already married!

That would have made a cool honeymoon event! How long married? Is hubby on the boards too? Given you're a theme-park fan, he better be one too!

LOL!

I've turned DH into a Disney nut! It all started when he joined us for the 1/2 marathon in '05, we had just started dating...he said Disney is where he fell in love with me. So what other place to honeymoon than Disney?!

We're coming up on 3 years Nov. 18th. He found Subsonic and listens but he doesn't chat here on the forum much.

Being that you're in FL mindflipper, can you find yourself a Disney nut of your own?

It's fun when you both share the same addiction.
