Anyone else at Pop but us??!!

[justplaingoofy]

We get in to MCO at 9:45am!!!! Too bad we won't be on Magical Express together!!! We could have started the party early!!!

Good mornin... Who are you traveling with? I'm taking my mom who is in her mid sixties. I'm 35, and leaving dh behind.. (hey, someones gotta go to work to bring home the money ) He keeps saying he's going to make me either a t shirt or name tag for the party he always calling all of you "my other family" because I am on dis so much . He is a great guy and he is always encouraging me to do my own thing. I do feel a little guilty leaving him behind but my mom hasn't been in 10yrs and is long overdue...

22 more days!!

Me too.. Does anyone else do the pin trading ? I do.. now I have to figure out how many to stuff in my bag maybe I will just have to pack an extra bag for all the stuff I will end up bringing home

We've done b-4. Packed in the smaller suitcase, put that in the larger one to check. If you don't buy much do the same for way back. If not then you have the extra bag. I am going to ship a box down since I downgraded the SUV to a mid-size & I won't have any adult help on the return trip. Either send extra back with DH or mail it home. No I don't pin trade, we spend enough there, don't want to add to it. Boys started asking about autographs & books last trip-YIKKES! I had successfully avoided that for several trips but now it looks inevitable.

We bought an autograph book at our local dollar store. It was plain and then I bought a bunch of Disney stickers. DS would have, say, a Donald Duck sticker on the page that he would have Donald autograph! The characters always made reference to this so DS thought it was great!!

I LOVE the pins!!! My DH was the one who got into it the most, believe it or not!! Always checking CMs for their pins, trading, etc. We'll probably buy another 3, one each, this year!! BONUS: they are such small souvenirs!!!!

Again this year it will be me, DH and DS10!! Older guys don't want to 'do Disney' anymore!!

It was soooo relaxing last year, just the 3 of us!! Can't wait to get there!!

That will be so wonderful Kelli!!
We're going to go away alone in February!!! It'll be 3 years since we went anywhere without at least 1 of the kids!! So nice to just laze around the beach..not having to watch anybody!!

I am starting to wish now that we weren't doing a split stay (POR 18th-24th) It seems that all the fun people are at POP

Not the cost that I was concerned with, I didn't want to be standing in all those lines. I am going to pack them & hope they forget in their excitement of just being at WDW. HURRY UP! Great idea Lbelle on the books.

You can still come over to Pop and visit us!!! We'll even sneak you in the pool!!!

 

[LBelle]

Okay folks....I've got a question for you guys!!!!

In light of the fact that our numbers are G-R-O-W-I-N-G (approx. 80ppl. on the 16th and approx 60ppl. on the 20th) do you think I need to inform Pop of this??

DH seems to think that I should...if even for them maybe keeping on their lifeguards later or adding another one, etc. I think that maybe the 'Petals' staff may need an extra body also!!!!!!

Anyhoo....what do you think????

You are going to love this !! Disney is doing a promo (not to many people know yet) and it is only offered until Sept. 30.

You can have things delivered to your room before you arrive at the hotel. all things cost the same as they would at the resort including autograph books $6.95 . There is a 5 dollar service fee unless you spend $30.

I would love to see your little ones faces when they have a care pack from Mickey in thier room.

I just wish they did more "adult" oriented like Cocktails

THANK YOU! I'll be checking this out more thoroughly after they get to bed, just did a quick cruise. I'd be willing to send some surprise pacs to BIG people if you let me know beverage of choice. Kelli, your vodka right?

LBelle, think it might be a wise idea to inform Pop people. Woulld really hate to have us all thrown off property

OMG... i'm starting to sound like a lush Girl, you have enough to worry about.. but thank you We are going to stop and get an ice chest full of goodies and cocktails on our way back from the beach that day so don't you worry your pretty head.

About informing the staff,.... Maybe I would mention it when we check in, I'm sure they are used to large groups around the pool

 

[Kimber1963]

I just ordered a bunch of snacks too! I wish they had more selection!
