8/17/2008 Double Dip 4-day Wonder

[Ski-and-Sea]

We're late seating, too.

Did I read somewhere that there is just one time for early dinner and one time for late dinner, rather than the staggered dining times?

We're in 2100, late seating.
Can't wait to go now any more. Only 2 more nights to sleep
Called Continental today to see there's any chance we'll get emergency exit row seats (i've long legs). Now it seems that the plane from Brussels to Newark doesn't has those. However on the flight from Newark to MCO they're availble, just need to check in on line as soon as that's possible. Hope at least this will work out.

BTW, am glad to hear there will probably be no hurricane. Had Charley visiting when we were in WDW in 2004, one time is enough... We know now how it feels to be locked up in your hotel so no, thank you.

6550 and late seating here too. Looks like we'll be seeing a bunch of you at least on the way to dinner!

I heard only one seating time. 8:15 I think?

5020...early seating.......Rick are you going to add the numbers to our list of characters by any chance?

Rick..sorry to hear about your dad.

Going to go check on the girls. Took them to see the Jonas Brothers last night. This was my DD's first concert. Watching her was priceless. I had fun too.

Time to print the door signs.

Check in later.

[Ski-and-Sea]

Coach Rick.....got the t-shirts in the mail today!!!!! They look great!!!

I do hope we can be in the same dining rotation.....hey, we've got a 1 in 3 chance, right???

 

[cyndisun]

Coach Rick,

Thanks for all your work on the t-shirts. They look great!

We are in 8600. Late seating.

Just three more sleeps for us!

 

[Coach Rick]

Thanks guys....I am so glad you guys like the shirts. I love designing stuff like that, and making them. You should see my embroidery It's so much fun!!!

BTW, I have some extras already printed since my sister IS backing out. Here is what I have...

1 Medium, $10
1 2XL $12
2 XL's $10
1 Youth Medium $8
1 Youth Small $8

Anyone want one, I can either mail it, or take them with me.

I still have some blanks I can print too in various sizes...

Visited with dad today. He is feeling better, but very depressed he can't go on the trip. But the good news is that the Lahey Clinic will take him tomorrow and start the process of testing for a liver transplant, so God willing, he will have a new piece of hardware for next summer.

 

[Dizzyworld]

Coach Rick......take a few Sharpies with you to sign the tour bus and a camera. I got some nice pieces of video for my DD to remember her special night. Have fun.

 

[Willem]

Fwew! Think I'm ready with packing. Only Steven had to add his clothes when he's home from work. Hope I didn't forget anything...
The weather here it terrible, and I love it!
Are taking the train to the airport in 25 hours Tomorrow night (Orlando time at least) we'll have dinner with Mickey... So everything is really coming close now!
We'll take the laptop with us for putting our pics on, don't know if we'll take internet.

 

[disneymama]

We're in 2546 with a late seating too.

The final tub of laundry is ready for the dryer, then I'll pack tonight after work!!!! The plane takes off in 24hrs!!!!!

Can't wait to meet everyone onboard. Rick - I'll take one of those XLs, but only if you can haul it with you without a problem.

Rick -

I am thinking you could probably get rid of them on the cruise for the dis meeters that didn;t order one ahead.

 

[disneymama]

I wonder how many times I need to post before I earn my ears?????

 

[Dizzyworld]

I think it is 100. You'll get there sooner than you think.

 

[disneymama]

I don't think it'll be this trip since we leave tomorrow.

Unfortunately, we won't be doing Disney again for a few years, so I don't know when I'll be able to "hear" (get it- earning my ears??? ha ha...)

What, huh, what-ja say? I can't hear you! ..... A FEW YEARS! Good lord, I would shrivel up to nothingness.

If I don't get to post to you before, have a safe trip and make sure you leave some magic for the rest of us.

 

[Coach Rick]

Change of plans....dropped the limo/van ride in favor of a rental car. Saving about $80 that way. Budget has a pretty good rate. My guess is less people renting because of fuel. Now I can leave any time I want, plus I will have transportation at WDW for the three days before. I hate relying on bus transportation!

The van was cheaper back when there were 11 of us, but now there is only 5.

SO between the first three days and the last 2 it's costing under $300. And I get a full southwest rapid reward credit for two separate rentals.

Within WDW, bus transportation usually works out pretty good for us. The FIL rides in a wheelchair through the parks, so we pick one up for free at the hotel (saves $ cuz you pay for a chair at the parks). When the bus arrives, we're the 1st ones on since they load him first.

I've arranged for the limo from the airport to the hotel (Happy Limo. you get a free 15 min stop at the grocery store on the way). We're signed up to take the WDW bus to/from the port. Does anyone know if the bus will let us off at Downtorn Disney and still bring the luggage to the airport? We don't fly out until the evening and I'd rather not have to worry about having the bags at DD.
