Just been reading through my docs. There is no mention of the REAS package - anyone who has done it before know if this is ok?

thanks

Mine didn't either. In fact, if if wasn't for these boards, I would still be waiting for my letter from Disney telling how to go about registering for my REAS package. THey told me I would receive a letter and then 30 - 45 days ahead of time someone would call me to schedule my reservations. I'm sure glad I didn't wait to hear from them. Did anyone else receive the "infamous" letter or receive a phone call on their REAS reservations?

Never got a letter either. I've got a great TA in Dreams that did all the work for me and I got a confirmation of all my dates and times from them. Just waiting until Monday for them to make one correction for me.

Uh, REAS. I mentioned to Mike that all of the Palo brunch spots were already booked. He wondered how that could be seeing as you can't book until you're on board. I said, "nuh-uh...if you do REAS you can PRE-book." His response: "I don't want a massage." He said he's afraid Franz will be assigned to massage him. I said I didn't think they had men working in the spa (made it up, it sounded good) He said he didn't want INGA to massage him.

So, if you're looking for me at "Mbarkation" I'll be the one in line to make my ressies!

I gave my TA specific instructions to give DCL. We have such a problem with deliveries here. UPS is great for the shop, physical address only.

USPS is for US mail only, as it is a post office box. We don't get mail at the house.

FedEx is okay if it is FedEx GROUND. To the shop.
BUT, if it is FedEx Home Express, it comes with a street address, but then gets handed over to the USPS, who won't deliver it, as it has only the street address and not the post office box.

Confused??? That's what I have to deal with every time I get something delivered!!

I'll be lucky to get my documents at all..............

Stacey - I have the same concern as you... Our address is a Box # and we live out of town in a bedroom community with no real street addresses. I didn't even think to give my work address - would have made sense. Soo, if we don't get our docs, we'll have to beg DCL to let us on... Or my pirate husband can take over the ship - free drinks for all Diser's...

Ok, If anyone is interested, I set up a yahoo group for us to use in the absence of the DIS boards. Getting a yahoo account is free. I have one for my yahoo group boards that I have but don't use it for anything else.

If you are interested in coming over when the boards are down, go to:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/DISBoardWithdrawl/

If you have a yahoo account, you can start posting immediately, if not, you have to register.

Hope to see a few of you there!

OM...what a great idea.
Thanks.
I am wethydrant on the above thread.
Beautiful, we are still connected.

My DW came home with a couple of new pairs of dress shoes for the cruise. I told her that there wasn't anything wrong with the shoes I already had and she says the new ones will make my feet look bigger! Now what the heck does that mean?

Paul

You know what they say about men with small feet and small hands?

Hi everyone
Wanted to post a quick note before the boards go down for the weekend. I need everyone to say a special prayer for me as I found out Wednesday that I have to have surgery on Tuesday. I am hoping that it can be done via Laparoscope but I tend to misbehave when having surgery. If laparoscope I will be home later that day; if not I will be home 2-3 days later. I was hoping to wait until after the cruise but the Dr. said No Way! I'll have Garry post Tuesday and let everyone know how things are going. I guess I will really be relaxing on the cruise.

For the first time ever, I actually wish I was at work today. That's where my documents will go. Maybe one of our employees will be ambitious and go to work today. I'll believe that when I see it.

Three weeks from today, at this very moment, we will be in the air, America West, First Class (this is the secret that I've been keeping from my family....won't they be surprised)
on our way to the GF, and MVMCP!!!!! And...a limo awaits us. They don't know that, either. Can't wait to see their faces!

It was already two weeks ago that Jay and I were in Las Vegas. Time really does fly.
When we were at the Gift Shoppe up there, Jay wanted to get that new big screen, but our friends didn't want our old one...remember?
Last night, Ruthie's dad said he would have bought the old one from us. Darn it. What's funny is that it was Jay who mentioned it. He's never the one who wants to buy something new. But then he told them we would just wait to get a flat screen to hang on the wall. I can't believe this is my husband. Maybe I should have mentioned the washer and dryer.
Hey..... there's an idea! He's at the cabin.......I'm doing laundry......the old washer broke.....and I just HAD to go to Sears and buy the new ones!! Think he'd fall for that?
Me neither.

Very nice surprise Stacey.
Your family will be thrilled.

Nope, no DOCS.

Went by the shop, and none of my guys are working, but our friend is there doing some things. He said UPS hadn't been by.

Oh well, all in due time......

More laundry......back later. Or at the "other" place.....
