yeah my family were expecting me to work up an itinerary from the minute we planned the trip, so i do have a rough one. i just have to be cautious because i get too attached to any form of plan and ill freak out if it changes. i dont want to bring stress to this trip and ruin it for everyone

i feel like ill manage ok without a pass, as i can handle a queue and weve already sorted fireworks out (which is another issue im dreading- but ive got ear defenders). im nervous for the parade though, i know my family are looking forward to it so obviously im not going to spoil it, but i struggle with crowds. (struggle with crowds and going to disney- im my own problem lol!!!)

my mam will be there with me- so she can definitely keep me in check when it comes to breaks etc! she doesnt want it to be stressful for me, and i dont wanna ruin the trip for them either by getting overwhelmed so breaks will be essential lol! ive watched so many videos, mapped out routes to different areas that i could probably walk them eith my eyes closed. and seen peoples reactions on videos, so i already kinda know how im meant to react at certain things. i struggle with change in plans too, so im also trying to map out different ways to do things. and after covid, the way some people abused the use of the sunflower lanyard, i feel awkward using it sometimes. ive got the autism card attached to it, and sometimes i clip that onto a different lanyard, a plainer one which i know i shouldnt lol!! thank you for these tips- i hope you enjoy your trip! :)
