If you want to catch the main planning posts we have been putting "mickeyplan" at the top so that they can be found with a search of the thread. HTH! The site is up to date with the details too, along with the first post on this thread.

Up to 71 shirts!!! OH MY!

Ya know, I have missed posts 6100, 6200, 6300 and 6400. Either I am slipping or there are other lurking out there.

So DrHug said at dinner tonight that he does not think he wants to lug all the gear with us this year. So, I told him I'm not sure I can still get into mine . He said "you mean you have gained?" Yep, no diet here in Oregon yet. So, we will likely do something modified and less luggage intensive. We will come up with something though. I know DrHug very well and if he does not get to be a real when everyone else is he will be . I think I will just get him a fluffy shirt and me a peasant blouse with black slacks. With the headgear that will work and our load on the plane will be less.

 

[lbgraves]

Goodness, Angie! That was a while ago.

 

[lbgraves]

Angie, why don't you check into shipping your pirate gear to the ship ahead of time?

 

[MrsMork]

Hmmmm.....Will Turner.....Maybe Balbosa?

This girl thinks Will Turner is pretty easy to look at!

 

[lbgraves]

I have to agree.

 

[MrsMork]

Will guest services help us ship it back home? I am thinking of shipping some school supplies. I got 20 spiral notebooks and some folders and they are pretty heavy. The airlines are so picky about the weight now. The post office has boxes that are $8.10 to ship no matter the weight. As long as it fits in the box it is a flat rate. But of course I will not need to worry about getting those back home.

 

[MrsMork]

Patsy is quiet?? Now that's a good one.

There would probably be a place near the port or airport that could help you. Before you send it off USPS weigh your package & check out FedEx. They are always cheaper for me & include insurance. You can even register for your own account & print out a label with the postage prepaid then just drop the box off at a location. Take some packing tape with you to reseal the box for the trip home.

 

[MrsMork]

We got our DCL packet today. It feels so much more real now. DH and DGS were at me when I finished reading it and said "I have to go tell my web friend I got it!" They just shake their heads.

Amazing! You are amazing, Lisa! And I thought I was organized.

I did Ebay for a while. Here is a link to the page for locations using the mailing address for the ship packages.

You know, I would PM Shirley and ask her if there is a location near her or even if she could help you with that since most places aren't open on Saturday. Hm..... We will get this figured out!

 

[MrsMork]

Ok, heading off to bed. Good night West Coast, Good morning East Coast.

 

[MrsMork]

That is funny. I was thinking of Shirley as a resource to know where to drop off too. She is such a nice lady. I plan to order a sand bucket of stuff for Aaron this year.

 

[lbgraves]

Good night, Angie! Hello, Amy! Everyone is getting in on the fun today.

Catch everyone tomorrow. If the west coast is going to bed...I should probably try too.

I figure that she deals with shipping companies all the time...might even already have one coming to her shop each week so they could just pick up the package at no extra charge.

Hello Lisa! I was having a hard time going to sleep because I had to go into work tonight from 9-11:30 to get some things ready for tomorrow, we are moving all our teams around starting tomorrow, oh what fun!

I should probably try to go to bed now since I have to be up early!!

 

[DisneyVegas1]
