I'm back!
Not much was happening with our Disney trip planning waiting for our Fastpass day...
But my daughter and I went on a cruise for her spring break, it was just the two of us for this trip as well, my son has a different spring break than my daughter and went on a ski trip with some friends, hubby started a new job, so two girls trips in one year! I love cruising, it an Disney are my two favorite vacations and I get to do both this year! We had a great time we went to four relaxing beachy spots, great trip!

So I got back, caught up on work and this Tuesday was our Fastpass day! I am pinching myself, it went so well! We got Flight of Passage for the 17th (day 5) and Slinky Dog for the 18th (day 6). All of the others fell into place perfectly! All one after another and done by noon so we can get others. We tweaked the dining times a bit and still are, but everything is falling into place. I am so excited!
An another note, we had a change in our arrival flight time. Originally we were flying into Tampa and landing a noon, we are flying on points from my Frontier credit card and the flight was 10,000 points each. Flights into MCO were 20,000 points, so it made sense to fly there and uber to the resort. But not sure if any of you know this, but this is the third time it has happened to me, if the airline changes the time of your flight you can change your flight to another flight for no change fee. So the flight changed by about 7 minutes, but I called and changed to the MCO flight and we now land at 9:25, so we get about 3 extra hours in the park and save $100 uber. I am not sure if this is the case for all airlines, but it has happened to me twice on Frontier and once on Southwest within the past year.
Now that we are arriving early we are thinking of going over to Animal Kingdom at the end of the day and trying to get on FOP. I have heard if you get in line at 8:59 as long as you are in line before closing you can ride and the lines aren't too bad. Thoughts? Has anyone done this? As I mentioned we are not morning people, so this strategy is more our style than getting up for rope drop.
Next step in my planning is looking for a couple shirts for our character dinner at Artist Point. Thinking of Snow White for my daughter and Evil Queen for me. We aren't huge into matching shirts, but we do it one or two days and thought that might be a good day to do it. We do like to color coordinate, I am an interior designer, so I like for us to be coordinated in pictures its just a thing I like to do, if you notice on the cruise picture we both went with black and white and for the picture at the top of this thread with Edna we both went with blue. I am going to wear that same shirt to our dinner at 1900 Park Fare to coordinate with Cinderella! We did find these shirts at H&M, which I think we are going to wear on the first day. I said I'm not too particular, but maybe I am! LOL

So that's it for now, just basking in the glow of a successful Fastpass morning and working on shirts.
Thanks for following along!
