November Anniversary Pre-Trip Report!

You guys! Less than 30 days!!!!!!! yay yay yay yay

I'm always open to suggestions, so please let me know if there's something you'd add. Smile

Friday, 11/8 - arrive at MCO at 4:00 pm. DME to Art of Animation, explore the resort, grab dinner at Landscape of Flavors. Probably take a walk just to get my legs moving.

Saturday, 11/9 - We switch resorts this day, so we'll be up early checking out and sending our bags over to OKW. We have a 9:50 ADR at Kona for breakfast. Soooo excited for this! Then we'll head over to ESPN for the race expo. Hang out for a bit and transfer our 4-day park hoppers to our magic bands. Head back to OKW about 4 or so to check in. Will probably grab a bite at Olivia's (or maybe Downtown Disney?) before heading to room to relax and rest.

Will head over to Epcot about 7pm to grab the shuttle to the race start. The race begins at 10 pm and DH will meet me at the finish line about midnight. We thought about hitting the party, but we have a HUGE day planned (okay, *I* have a huge day planned) for our anniversary the next day. We will cab it back to OKW post-race.

Sunday, 11/10 - 8:12 am tee time at Magnolia Golf Course. This is my gift to DH for putting up with my running. Smile We will play 18 and head back to OKW to change before hitting the last day of F&W at Epcot. I know it will be packed, but really, I think we'll just be walking, people watching and grabbing drinks and snacks where we can.

Our Grand Floridian intimate dining is this night. I'm not sure when this starts, but I have our menu all picked out... appetizers: crab cakes and spring rolls, salad: sushi grade tuna and caesar, entree: beef filet w/lobster tail and chicken breast w/pasta, dessert: creme brulee and baked chocolate mousse with bourbon sauce. We'll get a bottle of pinot noir as well.

Monday, 11/11 - parks day! I don't really have a plan for that...probably DHS for the daytime, since this is our day for MVMCP!!! I'm pretty stoked about this.

Tuesday, 11/12 - hmmm...dunno. Smile Parks day! Animal Kingdom, probably more Epcot (DH loves Epcot)...gotta check extended hours. We have a 9:05 pm reservation for California Grill, so the full day is ours.

Wednesday, 11/13 - ADR for Crystal Palace at 8:10. This is mostly so we can get into the park early. mickey We don't have to be on DME until like 3:30, so we have most of the day to park it up. I'm sure we'll spend most of our day in MK, but will probably revisit DHS or Epcot as well.

Then...home. *sigh* I'm trying to be flexible (SO not like me!) and enjoy some adult time at WDW, so I didn't want to make too many plans. The golf and intimate dining are surprises for DH, so I'm pretty stoked about his reaction. I hope it's all I'm imagining so that all these months of anticipation pay off!
