Last trip my Hubby and daughter didn't feel well one afternoon, so they went back to the resort to rest and I went to Hollywood studios by myself!! I had a great time, got to do all those things they didn't want to do there. I took one of the animation classes ,saw One Man's Dream and did things they would have eye rolled over!!
Exactly! I did do a short trip by myself once that I completely loved! This trip will have so many positives to outweigh the negatives.

Personal Triumph! I love it!!!

While it wasn't to WDW, I did take a trip post-separation-waiting-for-final-papers to Arizona with my girls. They were 4 and 8, and I was a tad stressed over how I would navigate airports and the like with just me to rely on. We had a great trip, and it was a serious turning point for me, showing me I would be ok. My prayer is that this will be a turning point for you, too, showing you that you'll be ok, nay, even BETTER than ok. FABULOUS. :)

Have a FANTASTIC TIME!

Ugh I hope so!! I will have to wait until next week to find out because my ex is in Las Vegas but I am pretty sure I have read that the Caribbean Beach resort guests will be getting them too.

I will be arriving Nov 17. Super super excited!

I have a question about the fastpass+ system. It looks like I am going to have to link my reservations with my ex's so that I can schedule fastpasses for the days that I have the kids. Does anyone know what this will look like on the Disney site? Am I going to have to see each and every detail of my ex's plans alongside my own? This will irritate me for sure so I just was hoping to be prepared so that when I finally sit down with the kids to schedule things I can act not annoyed. :roll:

I saw the reference to this that you posted in another thread somewhere and have been pondering it. I think you should just make a call to Disney and point-blank ask. Seems you should be able to link your reservations together, annoyance nothwithstanding.

Good thing you caught that and were able to call and fix it. That would be horrible to be stuck at the airport trying to figure all of that out!

Crazy roller coaster trip has come and gone. Deep in my post-wdw depression now. Over all the trip was amazing and such fun. I want to post pics and all but it has been so long since I have posted pics here I may need a refresher course lol
