Hello hello to everyone reading. Its a time of firsts for our small family. Its the first pre trip report i've written, the first time posting to DIS, oh and also the first time I'LL BE GOING TO DISNEY!!! Although i have been dreaming about this trip for a while. SO kick this off lets introduce the cast.
There's me, Mickey. Lucky enough to be named after the big cheese himself. Im 22, have been obsessed with Disney since i can remember. my favorite Disney movie is Lion King and my favorite character is Stitch.
There is my hubby, Curtis, also 22. His favorite movie is Toy Story, and his favorite Disney character is also stitch. He's been to Disneyworld and Disneyland before but doesn't really remember his trip to the world.
A Little Background:
We've planned this trip two different times and each time something went wrong and we ended up having to cancel, breaking my heart a little more each time. This year when it came time to bring up the idea, i went at it with a gusto. Everything got paid in full and the plane tickets were purchased right away, so barring any tragedies we are definitely going this year.
When:
We will be flying out of Salt Lake on the red eye on Sept 6, at 11:50, and touching down in Orlando around 6:12 am. Its a straight shot there which is great because ill be A) to excited to sleep, bouncing up and down, and generally annoying so the less time other people have to be around that is probably for the best. or B) Had spent the previous 24 hours with absolutely no sleep, because i'm going to Disney, duh, and completely crash on the plane. Either way there wont have to be any layovers to delay the NEED to be in Disney right now, this very moment.
The flight back leaves at 7:00 pm (yay, gives us some time to spend in the parks on the last day) and landing at about 10:00 pm.
Where:
The very first time we looked into Disney and started planning this trip, I was completely over whelmed by the amount of hotels that Disney had to offer. Sorting through all of them for about two weeks there were three that immediately caught my eye and i kept returning to. Animal kingdom lodge's safari room, Pop Century, and Art of Animations Little Mermaid Room. Animal Kingdom was quickly crossed out because of the price tag but is still my dream room so maybe one day, Art of animation and Pop century were the two that we went back and forth on. Originally for this trip, we were going to split the time evenly between the both but since AOA wasn't available for the room discount going on, we went with Pop Century.
Next Up: My call with Remington

Breakfast at Ohana and then we'll pick out favorite things and do them once more before heading to Pop Century to pack our things and head to the airport.
After we've made our way to Pop Century, we'll have breakfast in the food court to pass the time and then head first to Typhoon Lagoon until about 2:30 and if luck is on our side hang out at blizzard beach from 3:00 untithey close. After we leave, we're planning on heading to the room to get showered and cleaned up before going to our ADR at the Garden Grill for 7:50. 
We're going to wander and enjoy the countries, possibly try drinking around the world. I feel bad about letting our FP+ go to waste this day but there isn’t anything I can think of that we would NEED to use them on and id like to be able to see the line ques unless its going to take massive amounts of time and patience to get through the line.
