A Disney fanatic is back for Free Dining**Lots of Pics!! Updated 9/13!

[Step]

I just thought I'd share a few pics, as I am less than 5 weeks away now and I can't wait!!

Ok, I am LMAO at this picture. Funny how two people in WDW years apart can take the same photo!

Less than 5 weeks here as well!

I like the red!

Thank you! And I just came across my DS' little Mickey shirt a few days ago...I can't part with it - it is just too cute!

I can't believe our pics are the same!! I showed my DH and he got a kick out of that...

Congrats on being less than 5 weeks away as well!

Yes, it is! It's a little off the beaten path, but if I remember correctly it's near the Backlot Tour...

Well, we are down to only 27 days!! I received my Disney mail which was a highlight of my very busy week!

Speaking of Disney mail...I don't know if anyone else has the Water Parks & More ticket option or not, but in our package there was an insert about the options changing. As of Sept. 28th, all of the nightclubs in Pleasure Island will be closed. They are now offering a 9-hole round of golf at Disney's Oak Trail golf course.

We still have 3 days left for the Water Parks & More, but I've never played golf so I'm not sure that's something we would use, but hey, maybe some of you will be interested in that!

As for planning around here - I just booked my car rental and got a really great deal! We are getting a full size car this time around because the last time we had an SUV it seemed to be even more cramped than a car! And we don't want to go the mini van route with the way gas prices are these days!!

So now I have a full on teenage girl and a 9-yr-old boy sharing the back seat for about 17-18 hours!

On a dining note...it might be the control freak in me, but I called Disney dining today and confirmed all of my ADRs as well. There is nothing more satisfying for me than to hear them read off my ADRS, because I think I'm looking forward to the food the most!

As for the movie schedule this week, I think I am going to be less ambitious and try to at least watch The Little Mermaid and Toy Story. We have mostly kept on track with our movie schedule, but it's hard to find time for all of us to sit down and watch a movie together... so I'm just playing that by ear this week!

Well, time seems to be flying, and not going fast enough all at the same time these days. I think I've done everything possible, aside from actually packing my bags at this point.

I ... can't ... wait...

I called to change our ADR on our last night at Disney, and also had them recite every ADR to me at the end of the call, lol.

Thank you for coming by and reading! I hope to have a lot of details, not to mention pictures! I will be happy to answer any questions you have when I return as well...

So what part of Ohio are you from? How old is your grandson? I'm sure the time will fly by and it will be here before you know it!

Thank you! I am getting so anxious!!

And I would have to say that I liked WFRR a lot more as a child - but it is still a good one!

Well....we're getting close here - only 11 days!!

I don't think it has really hit me yet that it is so close. I have been doing all of the usual things to prepare. I started my pile of things that need to go with us... coffee maker, coffee cups, coffee (yes coffee is important!), snacks for the kids in the car, bottled water, cans of soda, juice boxes, chargers, etc.

But it still doesn't feel real just yet. I need to remember to pull out my cds. I simply couldn't forget the Bananarama cd, or it may throw off the whole mojo of the trip! KWIM?

I have been tracking the weather as well. Good ole Fay. I really hope that the rain will lessen a bit by the time we are there, but I am going to remember the ponchos as well, just in case.

I'm waiting on a new bathing suit from the Disney Store online too. I found the Mickey tankini swimsuit for only $9.99! It is adorable, and I was in need of a new suit, so this one is perfect! (Not to mention, I found a cute Jasmine t-shirt as well!)

I think that is all for now. It is still too soon to pack although I have started to organize a section of my closet for clothes that definitely need to go with me. I even have the shoes together in a little section on the floor in my closet! I'm so glad I have you DISsers to tell because the average person might think I'm a bit crazy!!!

I hope everyone is having a great week, and I hope that any of you heading down sooner won't be too affected by Fay.

Until next time...

11 days!!!! Hopefully Fay will be gone by then.

I love packing! Just reading about yours makes me sad I have no reason got pack for awhile!

 

[Dr_Finkelstein]

You must be so excited!! Only 10 days!!
And I don't think you're mad - I'm restraining myself from packing just now. I'll probably start packing everything the week before, but I keep running through in my head everything we'll need - you need to be organised!

But it still doesn't feel real just yet.

I know how you feel, for me I don't think it will be real until we're sitting on the plane!!

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you re Fay

And yes, I do hope Fay will be gone, and all other tropical storms/hurricanes....
