With the amount of ADR's I have made, I'm pretty sure we will come home 20 pounds heavier!

and PAID for our trip!!!!

(OK, I put it on our Disney Visa. But as far as they're concerned, it's now paid for!!!!!!!)

Somehow that makes it even more REAL!!!!

And I just went to school and "signed out"-- handed in my keys and wished everyone a good summer.

Next stop, the Polynesian

If your check-in date is after 8/3 and you're paying more than the rates shown below call 407-W-DISNEY (or your travel agent) and see if you can switch your reservation to this rate.

I am at CBR right now, and I will probably have two unopened cases of water bottles left over (24 half-liter bottles each). If anyone is checking in to CBR after the 18th and wants one or both send me an email or a PM and I'll leave them in your name.


EDIT: All the water is spoken for

That's super nice of you. You might post this over on the Budget boards...bet you will get a taker!

Last year we had a variety of bottled drinks (water, soda and gatorade) left over so we took it and left it by the vending machine at our resort with a big FREE sign on it. Hopefully it made somebodys day!

Does anyone know if there is a thread just for traveling in August? We are looking to plan for NEXT August, and wanted to see feedback on crowds, weather, etc. TIA
