    We go to DL every other year, and always around the end of Oct.-beginning of Nov. We have decided after being teased with minimal Christmas decorations for our last four trips that we want to do the. Christmas season this year. Immediately I began worrying about picking the perfect dates...

    Vera Bradley bags

    Is the new blue and green design in the parks yet? We got here tonight, and I was going to get one of the other designs, but I really like the blue and green pattern.

    Anyone stay at the Desert Inn & Suites lately (since remodel)

    We just checked in tonight and it's our third time staying here. We love the short walk to the parks, it's basic but clean, and the price is great! The staff is always friendly as well.

    6 day ticket

    We have always done six days for the three of is, until this year when we can't :sad:, so we will be doing five days. I guess we enjoy being able to focus on a couple of lands each day, park hop, swim in the afternoon, or just sit on Main St. and relax. It all depends on your style I guess. It's...

    Do I have to have a res. for Carnation Cafe?

    We don't have any meal planned for Sunday because we were going to play it by ear, but I would like to eat there now that it's been refurb. Can we get by without a res.?

    All right, Oscar from the Carnation Cafe is in the news !!!

    My DD was just asking me last night if we were going to see Oscar on our trip (in two days!!!!), and I wasn't sure. It's nice to see him recognized for what he does. Hopefully we will see him!

    What's the best way to take toy sword/knife on plane?

    I was going to put it in the checked baggage, but I also don't want them ripping open my suitcase because of it. I don't really want them to carry them on either. Will they show up on the scan if they aren't metal? What does everyone else do?????

    Do the ticket booths open at the same time as the gate?

    Tanks. Pam! I just checked my email, and that's exactly what it says. So nice to not have to visit a ticket booth first. I am unclear as to how it all works as far as them taking each of our pictures and printing our cards. There must've been some computer upgrades at the gate if they can each...

    Do the ticket booths open at the same time as the gate?

    Just wondering if we will be able to exchange our way.com vouchers ah gad of the gates opening or have to wait. Do they open at the same time? We have a character breakfast for 8:20 on Halloween, which is also our first day, and I thought if they opened sooner, maybe we could get them on the...

    Flying spirit airlines

    I remember our last trip seeing an amazing price for Spirit, and then I found all the fees, and it made me nervous I suppose. You can't go wrong with Jet Blue, so I think that's a good decision!

    Flying spirit airlines

    We haven't flown with Virgin, and it's been a long time since we've flown Delta, but I absolutely agree with you about Southwest. We've had a few disappointing experiences with them.

    Flying spirit airlines

    We are now Jet Blue fans all the way. More leg room for my 6'5" DH, tv screens, first bag checked free, carry on free, and we love flying into Long Beach airport. It's small, and is the same drive time as SNA is. This trip we paid $138 round trip from Portland to Long Beach. Our airfare was less...

    Upcoming trip and RAIN!! :(

    I can't believe we are finally getting close! Our first day in the parks is Thursday, and it looks great for us until we leave Wednesday. I was actually thrilled that the highs dropped from 85 to 70's! The rain doesn't faze us at all, and in fact, because there were less people, the lines were...

    Another wide right question...yes, I'm still stressing!

    Do you have to have early entry to do wide right, or do you do it for normal gate drop? We won't have any early entry days, so does that mean we should just go straight to the FP machine? If we do DCA Friday morning, what do we do? Get a FP or wide right? What about Saturday? Isn't that...

    Leaving in 8 days and I'm stressed about the silliest things!!!

    So I just thought of something (dangerous, I know!). How can we do the wide right on a day when other people would've gotten in early? Doesn't it only work if you are going in at rope drop? Don't the people who stay at the hotels get in early everyday? We will not have an early entry day on this...

    when to start planning for easter trip next year?

    As others have said, I start planning as soon as we have our dates picked. We stay at hotels on Harbor near the crosswalk, and many of those don't require any deposit. So I may book a res. at a couple different places, watch for discounts, and then make a final decision at three months. I...

    Leaving in 8 days and I'm stressed about the silliest things!!!

    Thank you everyone for the tips and reassurance. As many of you said, it's a vacation....in Disneyland!!! It WILL be magical. We are blessed and fortunate to even be able to take a vacation, let alone to DLR, and to be able to share it with friends makes it that much more special. My planning...

    Leaving in 8 days and I'm stressed about the silliest things!!!

    Unfortunately, and fortunately, I am a planner. It saves us money and we usually have everything we need, but it can also cause unnecessary stress. Anyways, we haven't been for two years and Carsland wasn't open yet, so we are very excited to see it. But...one of the things I am most stressed...
