I would think as the world gets smaller with the advances in the WWW problems like the rejection of parcels would become non existent

All my bags are packed I'm ready to go
I'm standin' here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breakin' it's early morn
The taxi's waitin' he's blowin' his horn
Already I'm so lonesome I could die

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh baby, I hate to go

There's so many times I've let you down
So many times I've played around
I tell you now, they don't mean a thing
Every place I go, I'll think of you
Every song I sing, I'll sing for you
When I come back, I'll bring your wedding ring

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go

Guitar Solo

Now the time has come to leave you
One more time let me kiss you
Close your eyes I'll be on my way
Dream about the days to come
When I won't have to leave alone
About the times, I won't have to say

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh baby, I hate to go

Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh baby, I hate to go

My sweet DH used to sing this everytime he would leave me for work, which was a lot! From DD2's 1st birthday to 4th birthday he was away 21 of the 36 months. I get a special smile whenever I hear it. Its as romantic as he gets.

Thanks for bringing the smile to my face.

Looking forward to lots of trip reports to give me a wee Disney taste until my next Disney trip. Safe travels, great shopping, grand exchange rates and well behaved husbands I wish upon thee all.

Lord knows you'd fit, have nothing else to put in my suitcase

 

[alicia1506]

I would totally pay for excess luggage charges as i am quite sure i weigh more than 23kg...

Have an amazing time

 

[Melbourne5]

Have a top time!

 

[becpee]

ESTA done and approved, with 6 more sleeps!

I'm going to surprise DS6 with a new DS game for the flight, not going to I've it to him until we're in the plane.

I think I'll be utilizing the inflight entertainment system, as DH has already claimed the laptop to watch movies and DS will likely use the iPad when he's not using the DS.

I'm off to work today, last working week before we go

<----me

 

[PrincessInOz]

Enjoy the final countdown, Bec.


You so deserve this trip and vacay time.

 

[alicia1506]

omg, less than a week!! it's getting really real now

have the most amazing time

 

[Ms. Shuttergirl]

So so close now. I always give my kids a new DS game on the plane too

I have a new dilemma

I'm trying to decide if we should hire a car to get back from the port after the cruise (we're wanting to go to Kennedy Space centre that same day also) and hold the car for our stay at WDW.
We're staying at Coronado Springs, so could rely on WDW transport, but i'm just not sure how reliable the transport really is.

So hire a car, or use the transport available?

We may want to go offsite at times for shopping or other things, what other transport is available to do this if we don't hire a car?

 

[PrincessInOz]

If you have the funds, then keep the car. Having a car is always handy to get around. It will be particularly handy if you want to run to another resort or to DTD just for a look see. An if you want to head out off property, then it will be worth having.

The bus transport at CSR is reasonable. From what I remember, it doesn't share with any other resort.

Thanks for your thoughts, I thought of it today at work and figure it's a small price to pay for the convenience of our own transport.
After bringing it up to my DH I think he also thinks it's a good idea.
I'm just not sure how often you actually have to leave the bubble of WDW

Look at it as an incentive to head back to the resort in the early afternoon. You can then plan a trip to any one of the outlets or head to the Florida Mall. There used to be a M&M shop at the Florida Mall (not sure if it is still there) if you need to entice your kids there.

Travel insurance done!

We must be close to have done that

5 sleeps, or in my case 4 really long days because i'm not sleeping alot.




Oh, and in other news I bought a pair of pyjamas to put in my suitcase
