*excited noises*
The only bad thing about this news is I have a feeling my family is going to make me wait AGAIN to go to Italy! I NEED to get to my motherland before I die! LOL
This made me laugh, I’m sorry. Just tell them they can wait until 2020 since you’ve so willingly put aside your choice
Our first ABD was DD's choice - HS graduation gift London & Paris
second ABD was Germany because our "big brother" was guiding
third ABD was Central Europe because DH wanted to see Prague and he NEVER asks for anything!
fourth ABD was Spain because a dear friend was guiding and DD's friend also offered an additional two private tour of Madrid!
fifth ABD is next week - Backstage Magic - so DD can add DL to her research. (We've done DLP & she's a WDW CM)
I WANT TO SEE ITALY!
I have noticed in the past so many people were hopeful for a Japan trip...Is this because of the parks over there? I am not too well versed in Japan AT All...my daughter loves animae cartoons so that is the extent of my knowledge of Japan! What is the big draw to Japan if not the parks?
Not for me, personally. I find Japanese culture to be exotic, tranquil and welcoming and their country a place of beauty. I love their cuisine, and their country is abnormally safe and organized. Their castles, fashion, history etc are all very different than European options (OK, ok modern fashion is eclectic and all over the board now, including the day to day drabness of business garb) but I find it easier to access since many people there speak english and they tend to be kind to foreigners. Since they take care of their old heritage landmarks and had their borders closed 1641 to 1853 there is a LOT of ancient sites that are distinctly Japanese and original to enjoy.

Having been fortunate enough to visit the Tokyo parks, I can say it would be a shame as a Disney fan to fly all the way to Japan and not visit them.

I understood what you wrote.Sorry I should have been more clear - what are my best options for cancelling my ABD river cruise and booking Japan without losing my deposit if my paid in full date is before Japan opens for booking?
what do you want to see?
