One of the many things I've learned about on the DIS is Crocs. At first, I was one that couldn't believe that anyone would actually wear them.
I kept reading the posts that said how wonderful they were, and finally tried them. That was Sept. 2005, and I've barely worn anything else since.
Even DH wears them. Angel & I have the mammoths too, and people think we're crazy wearing them all winter, in the snow. We have lots of jibbitz for them too, and it was time to switch the Valentine ones for Easter ones, so Angel got her regular crocs ready for the trip & decorated them with ones for the cruise. She's happiest when every hole is full, and if not, it drives her crazy if they don't have the same number in each shoe.
She couldn't decide which Disney ones to include, so I told her she could take the Disney ones, and switch them out with the cruise ones after the cruise, which made her happy.
Here's hers, with the extra Disney jibbitz
And mine too
I forgot to say that the sea lion excursion that she chose is the one at Blue Lagoon.
I've been waffling back and forth on deciding our park days. Usually we do AM EMH, and it usually works well for us. With our dates, it doesn't work to do that for MK. I've been thinking about doing the recommended days from easywdw.
That would make our schedule:
Thurs. 4/18: Swim at Pop, look around AoA. It seems like we always plan to just stay at the resort when we arrive, and that we usually end up going to DTD, or to another resort to eat at their food court, and then we regret it because it ends up being much later than we planned.
Fri. 4/19: MK
Sat. 4/20: We get 2 vouchers for DQ, so DH & Angel will go there. We've gone before, but I can't remember how long ago it was. I didn't do too much then, so I'm just fine not going this time.
I may do some
, but I'm guessing that I'll need to do it Thurs. instead. I plan to go get pressed pennies at Boardwalk, POR, and Ft. Wilderness. Normally we go do that together, but this will give me something to do instead of DQ. We'll meet later to shop at DTD.
Sun. 4/21: HS
Mon. 4/22: EP
Tues. 4/23: AK
Wed. 4/24: not sure yet, depends on if we got the resort pennies, saw all of AOA, finished shopping at DTD. I like having time to pack, instead of trying to do it after getting back late from a park. I'm sure Angel will want to swim some more, it was one of the things she missed doing the most last summer.
Got our online check in done for the cruise, and called to request late dining, a table by ourselves, and added our celebrations.
Called and put in room requests for Pop, and had Magical Express added for going home.
I think the next thing I need to work on is getting our luggage from the old house. I have to disinfect it before we can bring it in this house. It's supposed to snow a lot today though, so I probably won't go over to try to get it, because I probably won't be able to even get in the old house - the screen door latch broke last summer, so we held it shut with a flower pot in front of it "temporarily", and now when it freezes, the flower pot freezes to the concrete, and I can't move it so I can open the door.
