www.wftv.com They are usually pretty accurate with the weather.

Hahaha.... Cold front. Remember winters in Pittsburgh Kathy?
Still having a hard time deciding what to pack. Anyone else?

So weird! It says there's 77 pages to this thread, but I can't get past page 76 no matter what I do. Maybe if I post this, it will take me to page 77...

Sayhello

ETA:Yep. That worked. Very odd!

Looking forward to seeing everyone real soon!!

Yes I do remember winters in Pgh. I am just trying to help those with packing. Even tourists to Orlando will find the evenings chilly when it drops to the 50's. Better to pack something warm just in case and not try to find something warm to wear here.

Staying at CSR too! Still have to call and make a room request.

I think I'm going to do a holiday lights tour at Ft Wilderness on Thursday, myself. Then..I don't know, mayhaps a pop into Downtown Disney or Celebration.

The weather predictions for the weekend are changing.

I'm now seeing highs in the mid 60s and lows in the upper 40's.

I'd prepare for it to be chilly on Saturday night.

Better safe than sorry.

Rain?

The bus pickup sheet lists Boardwalk. We are staying in the Villas and coming back from Hollywood studios probably on foot. The Yacht/Beach club is also listed. We have never stayed in that area before. Which one should we be going to for pickup? We will have to discover where the convention entrances are. Does Boardwalk on the list mean where we are staying?
Sorry if this seems like a dumb question. We know the parks very well but not this area. We basically have only gone there to eat at Cape May.
Thanks for the help.

We leave for the airport in just 5.5 hours! Guess I'd better get off the DIS and go finish packing.

Looking forward to seeing everyone on Saturday!

Only in one forecast. Two others, including NWS, give no mention of rain.

It is too bad we won't be able to see the lunar eclipse in Florida.

UPDATE: We got our credentials on Monday. Yay! Hopefully, the other Canadian DISers got theirs as well.

As much as I dislike Canada Post (slower than molasses, no Saturday delivery, sometimes on strike), at least it's not UPS Canada. My mom sent me a $40 box of Legos for Christmas, and UPS Canada made me pay an additional $50 for "brokerage" through customs. This is on top of the shipping fee she already paid to ship it out. Apparently, the UPS Canada "brokerage extortion" fee, is pretty standard in Canada.

See the following news report.... http://www.ctv.ca/CTVNews/CanadaAMCo...n-blog-110407/

So, despite the delay, at least with USPS/Canada Post we didn't have to pay double to attend.

It's three days before I leave for Orlando, and Canada Post is notoriously slow (that is, when they're not on strike). Is anyone else from Canada coming, and have you gotten your packet in the mail yet?

Pete/John/Kevin/et al: Is there a contingency plan for people who do not receive their credentials in time for the event?

I was quite careful not to say "MOON" but "ECLIPSE".

Please, eclipse your moon, Mike.
