I don't know what's wrong with me, but I'm honestly kinda dreading our upcoming WDW trip July 20-Aug1st.
My wife, myself and our 2 kids (5&8) are meeting up with my brother SIL & their two kids (16&18). The kids adore each other & our reservations are linked at the same resort, so hopefully we'll be close by.
We haven't been to WDW in three years, & I only get to see family every 4-6 months, so I should be excited. Instead, I'm dreading the travel, the heat, the crowds, balancing what my young kids need with my desire to hang out with my brother/nieces/spouse.
We're using military tickets that can't be activated until we are at the park the first day, so I can't make any FastPass reservations ahead of time. Knowing that other people are able to do so prior to arrival is stressing me out that we won't get any.
My younger child ended up in the ER last time we went with a 106 degree fever due to heat stroke in September, so I've bought cooling towels & shirts for everyone.
We're flying from the West coast & while I adjust quickly to EST & want to be at the parks early AM & resort by noon for rest & pool & park around 6pm, my spouse doesn't adjust to time change well & who knows how the kids will be.
I really want to see Pandora and my SIL can't stand AK, plus no fast passes will be available able for the banshee ride.
Arugh. So much stress for a "fun" vacation.
How have others dealt with the worries & not being excited for a WDW trip due to all the unknowns?
