Love the books! I have a Passporter from last year. never really did anything for me.
The Complete Guide to Walt Disney World by Julie Neal is a real good one! I have the 07 one.
I started out with Birnbaums for our first trip in 05 and loved it!
I dont have the unofficial guide yet..not enough pictures for me..

How was your first day back at school?

The Unofficial Guide does need more pictures. But some of the cartoons are funny.

The first day back was good. I explained my surgery, showed photos that my surgeon gave me, and answered lots of questions. They wanted to know if I felt anything and how I was able to sleep the entire time
For some reason, they were really curious about stitches.

Thanks! I live in the World of Disney Store.

I wonder if Scott and Biff would wear matching NY t-shirts?

I have lots of flip flops too. I don't own Crocs and have never tried them on. Are they comfortable?

 

[VandyFan10]

OHHHHHHH I like those!!!!

I assume you won't be walking around the parks in those??

But then again....I don't know you

Scott might..I dont think Biff would though,,

AHHHHH,,Go try them on!! You will not want to take them off! I even have a pair with the fur in them for winter,

Thanks. And you're right, not for the parks. I think I'd need a stretcher if I tried to walk the MK in those

Scott might..I dont think Biff would though,,

We have to ask Scott

I'm going to try on some Crocs this week. If they are that comfy, I might be wearing them with my dress instead of the red shoes

 

[SwansLoveDisney]

Love those shoes!!! So cute!

You have so many guidebooks! I'm jealous!

I have that problem with guidebooks AND shoes!

My DH just rolled his eyes when I came home with the Passporter today. And when I came home from the mall with 2 new pairs of shoes Saturday.

 

[rentayenta]

go to the Croc's store on Columbus. it is right across from the City Grill. A horrible restaurant.

I love my Crocs.

I love the way the Passporter is organized. But I never actually carry it around the parks.

Fantastic shoes!!!!

Thanks

I think I might getthe Imagineers guides. People need to write more guidebooks with lots of color photos.

Biff would not.

Looks like a trip to the Crocs store is on this week's agenda

We're voting on next year's school calendar at our faculty meeting next week. As I've been looking over the choices, it appears that we will have a 5 day weekend in October. If that's the case, I'm considering another trip to Disney foir MNSSHP

So even though I'm not sure, I'm pricing different options. I have no idea where to begin in terms of resorts. We were at the Poly in January and will be back there in August with a one night stay at the CR. Should I stay at the Poly again? Transportation is so great there. Or should I consider another resort? Maybe the GF? I really would love to stay at AKL, but it seems so far away. Or should I save some money and stay at POFQ or POR?

Also, since it would be a relatively fast trip I'm thinking of doing the dining plan. Deluxe dining might be a bit too much.

Then there's flights. I've never booked my flights through Disney. I wonder if that's worth doing. Or would I get a better deal on my own.

What do you think?

I don't have much to offer about resort choice (this weekend is my first time on-site since childhood) and I always book my own air so I can fly direct on Southwest out of a smaller airport close to my home.

Our trip last October was over Columbus Day weekend and we had a blast - it was a bit rainy, but it was fun to be there for MNSSHP. We pulled the kids out of school for a couple extra days and made it a week. Definitely a great time to go!

I'm pretty excited about the possibility of going to MNSSHP. I usually do not have that long of a weekend in October and can't take off days that early in the school year. So, I figure it's the perfect opportunity to get dressed up and trick or treat around the MK!!!

I only have the Birnbaum's book. I have the one for kids and the one for grown ups.

I'm interested in this Mickey Map that someone else posted. I think I will look this up.

GREAT shoes!!!

I would stay at POR and save your money. do the regular dining plan. then you can experience the boat to DTD, it is wonderful.

I would book through Jetblue.

I checked rates from 10/9 - 10/13 and WOW, it is $174 one way for 1 person. I paid $74 each way pp.
