Yay! I haven't gotten mine yet, but it has to be soon.

Our ME packet came and it was ALL wrong. No flight info for either flight, wrong guests. A disaster! They better have my new packet here quickly!

I think it's only around 28 days now

I'll be interested to see if I get anything. I rented DVC points from an owner, but when I put my reservation number in on the Disney website, it brings up all my info

So, I'm not sure if I'm in the Disney reservation system or not (I didn't think you were supposed to be if you rented points )

Either way, just one more month!

That's a bummer. Does anyone know if I am supposed to put the luggage stickers on myself or save them for the baggage handler at the airport?

Four weeks from tomorrow!!!!


We got our DME packet last week... now I'm in psycho-planning mode!!! In the last week or so, I've:
- arranged for a Fairy Godmailer-- how did I forget to do that?
- placed our order with Garden Grocer
- ordered the girls new Teva Mush flipflops; they had outgrown their old ones
- renewed our membership to touringplans.com
- ordered neon bandannas (wet, they keep us cool. Dry, they help us spot our luggage at JFK) and glow bracelets (helpful in identifying my kids in the dark) from Oriental Trading.

Today's task: Nail down transportation to and from JFK. I'm thinking LIALS-- has anyone used them??

We are flying out of JFK too. I prefer it over Newark. My dad is driving us though.

Our morning flight is at 8 am, and we return at 10pm... if there are no delays. And it's a Wednesday, both times. I can't ask family or friends to schlep to JFK that early or that late.

My dad is retired so I don't have to worry. Last year we were going to take a van and it was super expensive.

We got our DME package last week too. Trying to sort out dining and park plans.

 

[Trinity524]

I wish I got my ME stuff in. It's not really real until you get that

 

[GillianP1301]

May I jump in on this thread? I'm new to DIS and totally addicted.

We're going end of August - 52 days to go!! I booked late (about 3 weeks ago) and have been going crazy those last 3 weeks with ADRs. Now that I have all those settled, I'm in full on wait mode. In the next couple of weeks, I'll be working on my binder with all my travel info (flights, insurance, hotel, touringplans, etc...). Then once August hits, I'll be in packing mode!

Welcome!!!

Exactly one month from today I will be sitting in the CL lounge at the Poly drinking some adult punch and looking at the castle!

Ahh, I love Poly CL! We're trying out the AK villas this time, but one of my favorite things was snacking on the evening offerings on the beach while watching Wishes! You just can't beat that view....Have a wonderful time!!

We'll be in the World at the same time - maybe we'll run into you at the parks
