April 30-May 7, 2005. Celebrating my 50th birthday (which will actually have occurred on March 26, but no way will I fight the Spring Break crowds). Going with my longtime boyfriend, Rick, and our best friends, Paul & Robbie. Is anyone else going that week who might like to split the cost of the Illuminations Cruise at Epcot?

[MontiMouse]

Cindybelle, we will be there the week right after you.

Date: We arrive very late on May 6 and will be there until May 15
Adventurers: DH (3rd trip), DD (7, 3rd trip) and me (4th trip)
Resort/Hotel: Pop Century (DD choice), Beach Club Villas (my choice) and Animal Kingdom Lodge (DH choice)
Celebrations: Mother's Day, belated 15th Anniversary, summer vacation (first time visiting Water Parks), Happiest Celebration on Earth festivities
Meetings: We would love to meet up with any fellow Passporters. PM me if you are interested.

You will have so much fun at the water parks! I'm especially excited this year to bring our best friends along. I've always thought we'd travel well together, and now that their kids are grown & gone, WDW will be a great place to try out a "double date." They've only been to WDW once, and that was 20 years ago when their children were really little. This time, they get to ride everything they want! Thanks for replying, and have a great trip!

We're going that same week. Would you be interested in splitting the cost of an Illuminations cruise at Epcot one night that week? There are four of us (51, 51, 51, and I'll be the baby at 50), and I'm thinking about surprising the others with this relaxing way to view the laser show. I'd rather spend $60 than $120. Interested?

Our June plans have been bumped up by about 10 days into May.

DD will be attending Fashion Rock (a modeling and talent competition in Orlando founded by Lou Pearlman - same guy who put together Backstreet Boys, N'Sync and O Town). She will be there between May 28 and 30. We will arrive on the 30th and begin our celebration that day. Trisha will have just graduated from HS on May 20, so we will be celebrating that, but maybe she will also have a possible modeling contract to celebrate!

We are: Jennifer (40 something), Jeff (also 40 something), Trisha 18, and Kyle 15.

Lodging: CBR, but that may change. Looking at AKL too.

Dates: May 30 - June 8??? Still undecided there.
