So I have the suitcases out and am starting to pack. My current goal is to get all three of us into 2 suitcases. I would try for one but DH and I have big feet and our dress shoes take up more room than you would think in a suitcase and I will actually need 2 pair. Our shoes will probably take up half a suitcase by themselves.
I wear size 13. If I need to pack extras, I either throw them on the floor of the truck or just pack a small duffel bag for just shoes. If I put shoes in my suitcase, it is pretty much full.
I am starting to worry Little Miss might know.
Uh oh... I hope it still works out.
As you may recall this was originally going to be departure day. That is until about a month ago when I got an invitation to a post wedding Sunday Brunch that we felt we needed to go to. Seeing as we will have had 2 very late nights in a row it is probably best that we are also not trying to push ourselves out of the room for check out on time this morning.
I like this plan. It will make it nice to be able to sleep in, enjoy a very late brunch and not be in a big rush.
If it’s raining, or we just don’t feel up for that kind of outing we will do one of 4 things:
1. Push on anyways and do Dinner and Fireworks along the boardwalk.
2. Hang Back at Pop and just have a super low key Evening (Don’t see this happening)
3. Explore AOA and have dinner over there.
4. Push on to DTD and do dinner over there.
They all seem reasonable. Although dinner and fireworks sounds the best to me!
I have to say, while I am still bummed we couldn’t get more park time I am starting to look more and more forward to doing the non-park stuff. Even without a ton of park time we will still be experiencing lots of new things for us. I am getting excited to see what this trip teaches us for future trips.
I kind of felt that way with my day there before I went to any parks. It is nice to have those days without a ticket to make you slow down and enjoy some of the things you might not get to do when you're rushing around the parks.
On a bit of a side note... Does anyone know if they will let you park at the Boardwalk if you are just planning on eating at the bakery?
Not positive. But I'm pretty sure if you go to a resort and say you're dining there it's not a problem.
They do allow this at most resorts, but they've been cracking down on it at MK area resorts and Boardwalk. They might let you, or they might not. When we were there in January, they had signs prominently posted at GF stating that parking was reserved for resort guests and guests with a confirmed ADR only. We had an ADR, so had no problems, but I don't know how strictly they'd enforce it if we didn't.
Long story short, you might be able to park there, but be prepared to not be able to park there. One option would always be to park at DHS, boat to boardwalk for dinner, boat back to DHS and get a pretty good view of the Star Wars fireworks from outside the park.
