[PrincessLeighsDaddy]

I got my final travel documents today!!!

Now, back to sewing!

How many more days?!?

 

[karebear1]

Yeah Tom!!!

Ok guys........... I have lengthened my trip to 6 days. I get there on Thursday and leave the following Wednesday. Thurs-Saturday I'm at CSR, then BWV's for the rest of the time ( AND.... Despite what Heather syas.... You CAN NOT hate me for that.... I know you think you got that past these old eyes Heather, but you didn't!!)

I'm bringing a friend with me- and she's planned all our stuff, so i really don;t know what the heack is happening EXCEPT taht we will see you all on SUNDAY AT ESPN!!!! WOOHOOOOOOOO!

NOT LONG NOW!!

 

[sohappy]

Happy Birthday Kristine! (even though I have already told you in about 4 places/calls!). Hope the game was awesome.

So, I am starting to use my friend Michelle's math (it never makes sense to anyone, but makes the situation seem better).

It is practically Thursday, so 3 weeks and 1 day until Kristine and I leave, but Thursday doesn't really count because we leave so early Friday, right. So now we are down to 3 weeks, or 18 days!!!

Kristine, I am snack shopping this weekend. It is amazing how big a bagallini is without kid crap in it!

 

[Stephres]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KRISTINE!!!! (sorry it's late!)

 

[Piper]

Hope your birthday was fabulous, Kristine!

Thank you...again! 3 weeks

Perfect time to get out of here. The actual air temp as we were hanging outside waiting for the bus after the game last night was 6...well below zero with the windchill. Today is worse and tomorrow they are thinking about cancelling school because it's supposed to be -22 with the windchill.

Hope your birthday was fabulous, Kristine!

(Sorry about being late!)

Thank you! It was! Everyone granted my wishes and gave me spending money for my trip!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KRISTINE!!!! (sorry it's late!)

Thank you! (you can never be too late with birthday wishes!)

You guys are so nice not to correct my terrible math! It was really 21 days. Now a few days have passed. . .

So Kristine and I have a new way of counting- work days. We are already on Friday, so that doesn't count. Next week is a 4 day week, then a regular week, then a 4 day week. sooooo 13 more work days until Disney! We also found out that 4 of the next 5 work weeks are 4 day weeks for us! AWESOME!

And I called the kids' school this morning to ask about time off for our next trip- they said FINE! Woohoo! So now I can officially start planning our labor day trip (not that I haven't already planned out tons of outfits in my head. . . and maybe in an excel spreadsheet as well. . .I don't have issues. . .I can stop at any time. . .)

 

[Piper]

I called again this morning to see if I could get all 3 nights together. The really nice CM was very surprised at how booked up the hotels were. She told me that they were actually very overbooked! She didn't have a clue what was going on!

Now I am more worried than ever. Okay, I just had a thought......maybe I should call and suggest that they comp me at a deluxe to help the overcrowding at the values---think that would work!?!

I think the hotels are not really all booked. They probably make sure they have enough to fill a whole section before they start opening other sections. They don't want a whole building staffed and running and sitting empty. I would keep calling.

 

[karebear1]

I don't know...... when I was there last week it was unbelievably crowded! I've been at WDW the exact week in January as I was last week and have NEVER seen it as crowded as it was. Actually.... I never been to WDW when it was as crowded as it was last week! It TOTALLY surprised me!

Having said that though, I was able to snag a ressie at CSR for 4 days about 2 weeks ago, it was at an AP rate too (84.00/night) BUT I had to buy a package- either park passes or DDP to get the deal- and the ressie was through Disney Travel- maybe that made a difference?? Anyway- It included 30 minute arcade pass, luggage tags (4) and a 200 credit. I thought that was a great deal!

 

[Stephres]

The week before and after MLK is always very crowded. Same with President's Day. I hope it's not as crowded as they are telling you Piper and you can get what you want!

 

[livndisney]

Ok, possible change of plans for me. I may not be able to meet at the ESPN club. But should be available for most anything else. I know a few people said they were planning on Epcot that day and maybe watching the fireworks or something?

Stacy and I will definately be at Epcot in the afternoon of the 8th.

YIKES!!! I hope it's not THAT crowded!!! I hate huge crowds! That's why we're going at this time of year because it's supposed to be some of the least crowded days of the year!

Ok, possible change of plans for me. I may not be able to meet at the ESPN club. But should be available for most anything else. I know a few people said they were planning on Epcot that day and maybe watching the fireworks or something?

So, is it still possible that you'll be able to come to the dismeet, too?

We'll be at Epcot on the 8th. I'm pretty sure Steph will be with us, too.

Stacy and I will definately be at Epcot in the afternoon of the 8th.

We're hoping to do the countries in the afternoon since Tessa will be wearing her princess dress. Were you planning on doing the countries, or futureworld?

We were planning on just doing Test Track and Soarin and then heading over the the countries. When you only have a couple of days you have to move fast

Hey do you guys want to do the new Kim Possible adventure? It takes a half hour around World Showcase and looks cute.

 

[HeatherSue]

We would love to meet up with you and Stacy for the countries! Maybe Cindee and Steph will join us, too! It looks like Kathy (NaeNae) is going to be at Epcot that day, too. How about you, Cathy (twob4him)?

We might not get much "done", but it sure would be fun!

That Kim Possible thing sounds cute! I just saw a little bit about it on the new Disney trip planning video. Do you know any more about it?
