Talking I'm not ashamed to beg Pre Trip **Updated 8/20**

No Iam not and I did and I got another trip this year!!! Yeah, I am going back next month and I am so excited I just can't stand myself. So here's my first attempt at a pre-trip report. Hope I do okay, though not like the pros.

The cast: Me, Pam(43) been to WDW not enough times to be satisfied, DH(48 almost 49 hee hee) 3rd visit, DS9 and DD7 both 3rd visit.

The reason: Well other than begging that I neeeeed to go back because my eldest DD kept us from finishing in June I have used that my future son-in-law is graduating boot camp on the 23rd of Aug at Fort Jackson and we're just a hop away from FLA how can we not go back. I have tried to celebrate Cati's 7th BD and they really do a lot for special occasions, I have even promised to cook and do the dishes for a month!!! to get to go. You have to understand now I do not cook to see how really bad I wanted to go. But when I started to bargain with the big S word he knew I had it baaaadddddd. Soooooo, I get to go.

Since I just got the word today, I have only made the ressies for a place to sleep. That is the most important right So we have 4 nights at OKW on points, I can not believe they had anything open, and I got the dining plan for less than $300. Now if anyone has an opening that will be a miracle but being the anal planner I am, I will find something for us to eat.

So, I'm off to N. Carolina for a few days tomorrow and of course I will have my books with me, so hopefully I'll have some yummo ADR's by the time I come back.

Yippeee!!!, I'm going back.

Well I am back from my sisters in NC. I was able to get some ADR's for our upcoming trip, though not Le Cellier . I kinda figured it wasn't gonna happen but I did try. I had a great CM that helped me get these set up:

Sat 8/25- LTT 5:05 pm
Sun 8/26- Olivia's Cafe (not my first choice but there wasn't a lot to choose from) 5:00 pm
Mon 8/27- Kona Cafe 5:00 pm
Tues 8/28- Lilo & Stitch @ Ohana's 11:50 am

We haven't eaten at any of these yet, so thats very exciting to most of us, DS only eats pizza and hot dogs so he could care less where we eat but the rest of us love to eat!!

So now we have a place to sleep and places to eat. The important stuff is done and now I have to get tickets. Tried to do this at my sister's house but oh my gosh her computer must be still in the stone age as it was so slow. I finally gave up and decided to wait til I got home. Up next: the AP's
