I've been meaning to post these for a while, so I'm posting them now.
This is my laptop bag. I'm probably going to get a new one before the trip, though, because this one's kind of a pain in the neck. The strap is held on with caribiners, and my laptop is actually too big for the padded compartment, so I've been putting it in another compartment. I also want to get one that's checkpoint-friendly to cut down on my time in security.
This is my planning folder. I couldn't find a Disney folder at four stores, so I stopped looking and just bought a cute one the day after I booked my trip, so that I could print things out and put it in them. So I bought this Yellow Submarine folder
And yes, for those of you who are older than me, I know what Yellow Submarine is
My dad's a really big Beatles fan, so of course I've seen it
My mom gave me this about a year ago. It's a small leather portfolio, and I plan on bringing it with me to take notes on my trip as it happens.
My carry-on. I measured it, and it'll fit on whichever airline I choose to fly with. I really like this bag, and when I bought it, the purchase donated a childrens' book
And these are my tipping envelopes! I printed them out from Mouse For Less and put them together last night while I was watching Eddie Izzard. I have fall-themed Chip and Dale for my servers, and Winnie the Pooh for my housekeepers
I need to print out one more of each because of extending my trip for a day, but I can do that at work tomorrow.
I'm also trying to decide which airline I want to go with. I normally fly with Southwest, but I've gained quite a bit of weight since the last time I flew them, and I'm worried that they'll either make me buy a second ticket (which I really can't afford) or kick me off the plane. American's policy for overweight passengers seems a little more lenient, but I'm really not sure, and I know that there's no way I'm going to lose that much weight (aka, 80+ pounds) in three months. So I don't know which way I'm going to go. I'm leaning more toward American, but I'm not sure. The price difference is only $30 plus the baggage charge.
