First let me say i am having a crap day. I am lucky the dis doesn't allow for swearing because this would turn right into a Jay and Silent bob movie.
But with all the crap (including a fender bender) A friend of mine text me asking if i would be willing to take a position on the Little League board.
I think i peed laughing so hard... Umm No. i will never.. NEVER do that again.. EVER.
OK lets get on with replies.
Thank you!! I'm still in amazement that i got it!
I know someone who does great work. I can hook you up if you would like.
Yes! Especially if i can't get Tess over to teach me how to sew... LOL!
As far as I can tell the main change (for the regular plan) is no dessert with your CS meal but you now get 2 snack credits. So basically the CS dessert now becomes a floating dessert that you can use anytime. I was so excited about the change and then I realized I'm going in 2016 and the change doesn't take effect till 2017.
That's about all i read so far too.. which isn't a big deal to us i would rather the extra snack for a mickey bar!!!
I highly recommend the Star Wars dessert party at HS if it's still going on next year.
THIS! What i was thinking. especially after seeing all your pictures and video!
Congratulations! I was thinking of you when I was on hold for the
Disneyland reservation line yesterday. I thought I had my trip all planned out. It is only 45 days away and all. But then I saw the discussion about staying at a Disney resort if you came all the way here. That got me thinking and I still went with the cheaper good neighbor. BUT then I got the email from Disney Visa that there was a room discount starting the day before we were going to be there. So, I called and I bit the bullet. For about $800 more, I booked Disneyland Hotel. Tighter squeeze for us, but after 44 years, I will finally be staying on-site at Disneyland!!!!!!!
I cannot tell you how happy i am your staying at Disneyland hotel!!! Seriously! SO HAPPY FOR YOU!! I cannot wait to hear all about your stay!

So, I feel your excitement. I can't wait to hear all of your plans. Club level at the Poly???!!!!! Super exciting. We loved Universal on our first trip to WDW/US and that was before the 2nd half of Harry Potter was open. I still think September is a good time to visit. Maybe not as good as a couple of years ago, but still lots better than Summer.
Oh i cannot agree. Sept is still so fun. and i have seen the crowds levels go higher each time we have been. I just hope it isn't a level of 5-6 like we saw in November
I am hoping Disneyland released the park hours for my first day (DL releases hours only 45 days in advance). Nope. Just checked. Still only updated through August 15th.
UGH! that just kills me!! OPEN THEM ALREADY!
I am heading on a road trip to California with my sister tomorrow for the memorial service for a friend from high school. First time it has been just the two of us since I was 16. It will give me a chance to see how I feel after a long car ride and to see how my Prius handles a road trip. Nothing like an 8 hour drive to look forward to.
Have a great weekend.
I am sorry for your loss.
I do hope you and your sister have a great bonding time!
Good luck with the Prius. I have one for work and i can't stand it. then again after driving my beast then getting into a go kart isn't fun.
YAY!!! So very happy for you and your family!! The Poly is my dream

. When we return after this year's trip (although who knows when
that will be!), we WILL stay there.
WOO HOO!! Looking forward to reading all about both your upcoming trips
This is on my bucket list! CL and the Poly? YES PLEASE! spoil me!
I hope to do a few live updates while there! I do believe all us Disney addicts need to do deluxe and CL at least once.
Yay!!! Making that booking is always super exciting! What dates are you going? My BF and I are going to Universal the 9th and 10th of September, then going on the Dream the 11-15th, then back to Disney until the 19th! Longest Disney trip ever but I am super excited (and dropping hints like crazy to the bf that disney world/the
Disney Cruise is an amazing place to propose lol).
TOTALLY exciting!

Only thing better is PAYING IT OFF! LOL
Sept 4-13! probably going to do U.S. after the Disney trip??? I have no idea yet.
Ohhhhhhhh I do hope you have the most MAGICAL engagement EVER! I can't wait for you trip!!
I think the regular DP is great with CL, you can have breakfast at the Club, grab a snack before bed, and use your credits while you are out. Even with the DP I tend to eat three meals a day. We were upgraded to CL at the BC once when we had DeluxeDP, and THAT was too much, but we all agreed the regular DP would have worked well.
Exactly what we will do too. this way we aren't using all our snack or QS on silly things like cereal! LOL.
Like you i think the Deluxe is too much for us. Unless we were going to do a lot of the dinner shows. Which we won't... Maybe when we do an adult only trip?
So excited for you!! That sounds amazing!!
Thank you!! I am so so excited!
That will be a fantastic trip! I was really hoping that you would end up at the Poly. It is so you.
You and me both!!! I really wanted the Poly. it was a dream THANKFULLY now i have to make the dream a reality!
WOWIE WOW WOW!!!! So excited for you!!! I cannot wait to hear about Club level at your favorite resort!!! So glad you get to stay there again....and that you don't have to try to sleep at Boardwalk surrounded by scary clowns and chairs with feet.
WOO HOO!
THANK YOU!!!
yes No clowns for me! I hope to stay away from there at least another couple of years. But i doubt it.
YEAH!!!!!!!!!
What dates are you going? September is one of the times that I am looking at going. Hoping we will be able to snag free dining promo if they still do it for 2017. I won't go without the dining plan either. Knowing that I could step foot into Disney and not have to pay for anything but tips if I truly wanted too... yeah, it's worth it to me even at the increasing costs! My daughters 18th birthday is in September, so we were thinking over Labor Day from Sept 1-Sept 12th.
THANK YOU!
We normally go in Sept. I booked from 4-13! Probably should have noted that in the post! I hope you get the free dining! that would cut the cost down tremendously!!No i will never go without the DP ever again. that was insane on cost.
YES knowing everything is paid for already is such a wonderful stress reliever!
OH OH! we overlap!
Yes, a really long trip for us to celebrate her! Only way that will happen is with free dining though. So fingers crossed for free dining again in 2017!
That's perfect! I do HOPE it comes out!!!
We are also considering the Polly. Not club level though. Since doing a longer trip, we will be spending much more time at the hotel so seems worth it to pay the extra for a Deluxe.
If you do book the Poly you will have the best and most magical time. They are SO fantastic and will more then likely make your daughters birthday SPECIAL!
lso considering Beach club though for that darn pool!
OK i'll give you that.. But it's not Wishes on the beach.
But the Monorail track is pretty alluring! Everyone in my family has made me promise that I will not over plan this trip. LOL ME????
how can you NOT overplan? that's the whole point! Then once you get there everything is scrapped go with the flow! LOL well that's what we do. I have plans. But we normally don't follow them unless we are in the right spot at the right time. Like that Perry game in Epcot.
Over plan... is that possible. My youngest say's I ware him out to much. So my goal this trip is to do park hoppers (which we have NEVER done before) and to plan our table service at a place outside of the park we are going to so that it will force me to stop and leave. I have a lot of resort restaurants planned this time. I have also planned that every TS will be a new restaurant to us which wasn 't as hard as I thought it would be since I am going outside the parks for most of it. Were also looking at Universal for 2 days. We just fly and use Magical express, so normally we don't have a car, but we were thinking about renting a car for 2 days to get to Universal. I'm definitely looking forward to your planning because it seems as if we are mirroring each other quite a bit on our plans for 2017.
Do you have a PTR going?
We don't hop a lot. once we are in a park we try to get whatever we need done. If there is EMH somewhere we will jump over!
We are mirroring each other! HOW FUN! i can't wait to hear all about your plans! I bet we have a lot in common!
I am debating on only getting just a 7 day park hopper to force us out of the parks a couple days. I am afraid I may regret it though. Wonder how hard it is to add additional day's on if you change your mind?
not hard But you might have to change rooms..
I'm actually a little disspointed with the change to the dining plan. We always use quick service because we are always on the go and next year we are essentially losing a snack. No desserts with the meal means no changing it for a drink or a slush or a side. So we are going from 2 desserts and 1 snack to just 2 snacks. So I'll either consider going up to regular dining or we will just forego the plan. Now if they had changed it to 3 snacks if be allllll over it lol!
ah.. We get the regular dining plan. we like the TS paid for, it's much cheaper for us, and more



in the park the better!
Fantastical.......Poly club level....what fun.
Thank you! I am still over the moon excited about it. I will feel a lot better when it's paid off!
No worries, we've been going in September of the past 17 years. Yes, a little busier but still not that bad......it can be hot. Just makes pool time fun.
The crowd levels have gone up in the past years. I just hope it isn't going get to the 5's or 6's
Yes it is HOT! especially in AK and Epcot! your right pool time and a drink is much more enjoyable!
FUN!
