Cancellations thread?

Seriously, that is just ridiculous! Is it so hard to comment on any one of the thousands of posts on any of the boards to reach a measly 10 posts?

 

[Party.Of.4-NY>>>FL]

still on the fence thanks to @Party.Of.4-NY>>>FL who suggested it might be possible to use it for parade viewing and dessert but not fireworks. think I am back to cancelling now lol.

So where is everyones favourite spot to watch the MVMCP parade from then?

By the flagpole on Mainstreet!!!

How about you @Lisa F ? What's your favorite spot to watch the from?

Just kidding around. Truthfully, I think if my dates coincided with others on here I would seriously consider foregoing the Dessert Party and choose to meet up together. Especially since all the of sippy cups entered into the equation!

How long was the quoted hold time? I'm on hold now to see about a carriage ride. They said 30 minutes but it has been 45. Ugh.

45 mins was the quoted time. I put it on speaker and left the phone in my pocket. I almost didn't hear the cast member pick up!

Yes I know. LOL. I screwed up attaching files to a post and only the links showed rather than the full image. I scrapped my whole
Post and started with a fresh one.

45 mins was the quoted time. I put it on speaker and left the phone in my pocket. I almost didn't hear the cast member pick up!

If you have a second phone, try 407-939-7529. This is the number posted on Sleigh Ride webpage. I called that number to book it this morning. Estimated hold time was 30 minutes and they answered in about only 4 minutes.

I know, right?! Sorry @Party.Of.4-NY>>>FL I thought you were making a joke about recent activity on the cancellations thread! Seemed like your sense of humor.

That's the number I called this am/pm (whatever time it was) and they quoted me an hour and I was on hold for exactly that. You got very lucky!

can we get kicked out for that? I'd guess yes!

No Fat-fingered a post and just decided to delete it altogether. I DID see that string of posts on the cancellation thread though. LMAO!! One of the mods. on that thread is going to have a field day with that poster. He/she sort of apologized though after reaching 10 posts.

can I be in your bubble? everyone always wants to talk to me

Yeah, I'm not sure why people always get chatty with me too!! I give off that vibe, I guess?

Agreed!
Too bad about the shirt!! Is there a site we need to watch out for? I need to order some shirts for us and you do not want to see me wearing a baby tee.

Also...shoutout to our girl @Talby for doing a successful ADR exchange with me! Now I've got a 3:05 Sci-Fi, which should give me plenty of time to make some room for the Jibjab dessert party!!

I'm doing a trip report after, but no Pre-Trip Report. I feel like my PTR would be something like this: "I tricked my DH into booking a trip to Disney in December. Then from the time we booked we were at Disney's mercy as we scrambled for ADR's, FP's, and hours. We held onto hope as we waited and waited and waited for SWGS, RoL, and any other scrap of info they provided us, until they took away a bunch of the things we were looking forward to. The End"

This is so funny. I did the trick the DH too!

That's the number I called. I cam only laugh at how time consuming it was. I didn't even have my cc ready since I assumed they would say it was all booked up.

I want to do a trip report, but I'm afraid it would turn out something like "Look at all my wonderful plans I spent months of my life on. I'm so excited to go!" and end up like "Nothing went as planned and I made terrible decisions and how am I going to pay my credit card bill?" hahaha. But I'm sure it'll be great whatever happens.

So yeah...I'll probably write one!

I fully admit I'm a talker and everyone feels the need to talk to me everywhere. Nobody ever talks to M.

I measured my shirts and according to their size chart, these should have fit loosely. They barely fit and show stuff I don't want shown. If they can't help me, I'm going to have to work my butt off in these next 45 days if I hope to wear them.

Ok, this made me giggle. I think we all know how unpredictable Florida weather can be. Just for fun I was googling average December weather in Orlando, cause I am totally in trip-obsession mode, and I found this. Apparently, Accuweather has actual daily forecasts for this coming December already!

I mean come on, they expect us to believe that they can predict that Friday, 12/9 will have a shower and pm wind? lol

holy cow, if temps are remotely accurate it is a bit warmer than I'd like!

haha, that was exactly my first thought too! But I don't buy anything that long-range, they barely know what tomorrow is going to be like!

It took an hour but I booked a carriage ride at POR on 12/8 since it's our hotel. The sleigh ride looked fun, but too much of a hassle to get to Fort Wilderness for this activity, plus I figured it would be easier to get the kids to bed if we're already at our resort. This could all go out the door if River of Lights happens as this is my AK day!

Quick question for all of you all that booked experiences. Did you get an email confirmation? I wrote down my confirmation number but I haven't gotten an email.

The carriage ride at POR is lovely! I've booked several carriage rides before and have never received an email confirmation, just the number given over the phone.
