WOW 38 days I am glad it all worked out for you and meeting up with your friend, your plans look good!!
Oh that is so early, August 1. Wow. I know you have been out a long time though, earlier than us. My kids have only been out 4 weeks tomorrow, 6 more weeks for them. And August 1st my oldest turns 11! EEEKK!Oh, you are going to have sooo much fun!!! What a great itinerary! In 38 days, I will have been back to work for 20 days (I go back August 1). I will be thinking of you having fun at the World!
It certainly is! Now its almost 36 since I'm in bed typing this and today is really almost over! LOL!38 days already. It really is flying by now.
Thank you, a hat, you know I honestly wouldn't have thought of a hat! I have a Life Is Good baseball hat I'll have to remember to pack!Go every year in August so here are my tips....
- Lots of water!!!
-a mister fan (it is a life saver when waiting for shows and parades
-Lots and Lots of sunscreen
-a hat is a must!
Yes I can't wait to meet Fiona, have you met her yet?38 days!!
I'm so excited for you! I just know that you are going to have a fabulous time! It'll be fun getting to meet up with some many DISer's as well as Fiona and Stacy!
Great idea about Christmas shopping!!
Oh yeah!wow 38 dayS!!! seems soo real now doesn't it! Looks great.
I don't have the Hidden Mickey book. It looks good too! I also saw one called something about waiting in the queue. I am definately getting one or two. I need to order soon!Your plans look great.
I can't wait to har how the KTTK tour goes.
I was looking at that exact same book on Amazon. It seems pretty interesting. Do you have the Hidden Mickeys book?
I really think it's great that you're doing a solo trip. I'm not sure if I can handle that just yet.
Too much DHS you think huh? I do like it but I am going to be there Friday and Sunday night for a little bit. I guess we'll see what the Bus Gods say and who shows up first!Pilfer away!
Then I can use your updated one to make a new one for my September trip
Love your itinerary...here's my one suggestion:
Since you are doing the "take the first bus" thing, if the DHS comes first - don't take it. Unless of course DHS is your favoritest park or something
I am very much looking forward to KTTK!38 days!!! How Wonderful!!!
JMO but don't drop marrakesh off your ressie list.. We ate there last trip and the food was really good. And I'm a notoriusly picky eater!
I've heard that it is often slower there for lunch... maybe you could move that up to your lunch time meal...since it sounds like you're leaning toward a TS lunch. Hate to see you lose out on a TS with FREE DINING... Besides, If you end up not liking it...you could always skip on over to France and indulge with some pastries!!!
I'm thinking of doing that KTTK too... it looks really neat..you'll have to let us all know how it goes

You are so right, it is always 5pm somewhere! LOL! As for Christmas shopping, I try. I am one of "those" organized people in some aspects of my life. I can't help it! The January trip is going to be a lot of fun! But I had to devote a year of my life to becoming someone who not only exercises but trains for this! What I won't do for a vacation to the Mouse! Geesh! Worth it though, I have visions of it being a very special moment in my life and worth all the time, effort and energy that is going into it. Keep your eye on that crazy Delta airlines!38 days?!?! That's almost tomorrow!! Scary how fast the summer is flying by and yet I'm so excited for my trip I want it to go faster!
LOVE that you won't have to set an example for anyone. Or maybe you have to set an example for the solo vacationers! Ice cream for breakfast? Bring it on! Want an adult beverage? It's 5 o'clock somewhere! That will spoil your dinner? So what!?!
Early Christmas shopping... you're so organized it kills me.
And a January trip coming along right behind this one- especially one in which you'll be running a half marathon. You're my hero I've had the same issues w/ flight changes on my Oct trip. Delta has changed it at least 5x.
Thanks! I'm excited!WOW 38 days I am glad it all worked out for you and meeting up with your friend, your plans look good!!
I know, yours is just around the corner from mine! Yes bigger suitcase for sure, you convinced me!Oh, how exciting! Your itinerary looks great.
I think you should definitely take the bigger suitcase and plan on some shopping! That is the perfect time to do it when you don't have to worry about anyone else complaining that they are bored or want to move on or whatever... so I say 'Go for it!'
And really, where has the time gone?? I'm only about a week behind you and I'm starting to get nervous that I am going to forget something - are you getting that feeling too??
Great update - I'm so excited (and jealous! ) that you are doing your solo trip!
ebay my friend! Got to love ebay!I have never been over to the transportation board and while I laughed at the Seinfeld reference, I don't know if I will ever have the nerve to go over there now!
Love the wedding vow renewals and the dress -- it's just gorgeous!!! What a fun trip that will be!
Where in the world did you find a Lily Pulitzer dress for $31???
Chelsea turns 11 tomorrow! And July 17 is the day Disneyland opened! I hope Goofy has a fabulous b-day!
ebay my friend! Got to love ebay!
Happy Birthday to Chelsea! July 17th is a special day for both of us!

Absolutely! I was scheduled for a c-section July 26 (he was due July 31, my first two were c-sections so we scheduled another). Well on July 16th I went and had a massage. I asked the guy if he knew how to start labor, I had heard that it could happen. He did and said it wasn't a guarantee but he would try. He focused on two spots, my ankle and shoulder. Weird huh? Well by the time I got home I started having contractions! I had an appt that afternoon and they were not strong but were coming pretty consistantly. They sent me home. That night I went for a walk with a friend and then watched "I Am Sam" with DH. Next morning still coming. Back to the Dr and practically beg to go to the hospital. They send me over and while they are still not intensifying they are coming regularly. Finally a few hours later an OR opens and they decide to do the C-section.
3:51pm and he is born, 13 days early, 8lbs 11oz, good thing he didn't cook the whole time! LOL!
