Our Disney World plan had been for three adults and one child to go in October. Last night as the Super Bowl party I was at was just starting, I found out that it's probably just going to be two adults.
I expected that this was a possibility, and there had been a couple "What if she doesn't go?" conversations, so I can't even be mad. I'm disappointed that she probably won't be there because that should have been fun, but it's also freed things up a little planningwise.
But this does pose a major problem, in that this vacation is now going to be twice as expensive for the remaining two of us. Again, I'd been mentally prepping for that, but I have several vacations coming up and am about to move and there's eight months to save, and ouch. It's still doable, though, as long as I'm careful. So now the plan is to meet up and discuss how we're actually going to do this. We might have to go for a lower-end hotel than we were planning, though the choices there still seem pretty decent. We might have to skip going to Universal and stay at the parks for another day because that's cheaper. We'll probably have to skip on things like Memory Maker, and maybe see if there's another person who can come with us on semi-short notice. And then we have to keep things flexible enough that if our third can go (I would bet against it) then we can easily include her.
I feel like this is both a good lesson in issues with travel buddies and in preparation and flexibility. But hell if I'm not still going on this vacation and having fun. [princess emoji]
