*Chocolate and Pixie Dust* - An August 2008 TR- 8/29 pg 6: Sort of an update

[Native NYer]

OUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's not that bad. Really, it isn't.

 

[Native NYer]

I scheduled a resort photo session for T at the Poly. I know I'm an insane person, but I love my nephew. Now I'm trying to decide if I should prepurchase the Photopass CD. Has anyone done this?

I can't wait to see these guys in 20 days

Sure. Why not do it?

And are you already gearing up for the EXBF trip to WDW?

I am, but I'll probably have to make a trip to Cozumel first. I'll sit on a boat while he dives. In exchange, he can tour WDW with me. I think my option's much more fun!

The DIS is incredibly slow tonight.

scottny, you MUST make an encore appearance on my PTR. We are talking about you. I am enchanted, but my PTR isn't.

I knew I could count on lots of laughter over here at Jen's place!

It's been a while since I visited your pretrip report but thought I would let you know that I just joined a photopass share on the budget board for Aug travelers. It would be somewhere between $12.50 - $20. It closes on Wed. Not sure if you want to go that route our not. It is a little complicated to share. Hope you are having fun with your plans. It is almost time for our trips!

Here is the link to the photopass share:

Jen - how much did you tip Garden Grocer? I did 20%, but that didn't feel like much to cover the shopper, the packager and the driver. On the other hand, there's already a delivery fee. Who gets that? Depending on your answer, I may call and change my tip.

 

[Tanya90210]

Your list looks great

 

[willwriteforears]

That's an excellent list! I currently have Dole Whip Envy.

While in DTD, stop by Ghirardelli's for a sundae, or at least a free chocolate square. I have Ghirardelli's sundae envy, too.

And now for a dude's pre WDW list of things to do:













Okay that should do it.

Hey Jordan, do you know MY HUSBAND?! He's got the SAME LIST!

Hmmm Scott must have been busy last night.

I knew I could count on lots of laughter over here at Jen's place!

I have a dentist appointment today and hope I don't feel compelled to pull a Toy Story Mania.

Thanks for the info!

I tipped 20% also. I thought the driver got the delivery fee.

Thanks!!!

Ohhh Ghirardelli's is on my list now too! I remember the yummy Ghirardelli's in San Francisco. My mom would love it. She's an ice cream junkie.

Hey Jordan, do you know MY HUSBAND?! He's got the SAME LIST!

I think most men have that list.

I think most men have that list.

DD had a coffee ice cream brownie sundae with dark chocolate hot fudge when we were there. It was HEAVENLY! Even DH's regular old cup of coffee tasted better at Ghirardelli's!

Oh yes, that's my DH's list - or else it says:

1. defer to Renee's list

 

[winkers]

• 3. Schedule bikini wax. Highly necessary when wearing any form of swimwear
• and when playing canasta.
  

• 
  
  Do you play strip canasta??

 

[swwake]

Do you play strip canasta??

I think that would be redundant.

That sounds so yummy!!! Does Ghirardelli have indoor seating? I would hate for everything to melt before we can eat it.

Your DH is smart to just defer to your list

Do you play strip canasta??

Canasta refers to uhmmm something else

I think that would be redundant.

1. Resort hop. I've never done this. I really want to see WL, AKL, BC/YC,
BWI, and POFQ (Dad's from the Big Easy).

I would sugest visiting POFQ via the boat ride from DTD. It's a pretty ride.

I scheduled a resort photo session for T at the Poly. I know I'm an insane person, but I love my nephew. Now I'm trying to decide if I should prepurchase the Photopass CD. Has anyone done this?

I haven't, but I would suggest that you do since you are having a photo session.

Yes there is indoor seating.

Thanks for the tips Heidi!!! Seriouly, your tips are great. Were you a travel agent in a previous life?

T will love the boat ride from DTD to POFQ. Then we can try their beignets. I want to see if they're as good as the ones at Cafe du Monde.


I agree about the photopass. Plus prepaying one more thing will be helpful.

I'm so happy to hear there is indoor seating. Perfect!

I'm not rushing your trip, but I cannot wait to read your TR!!!!!

Girl, I need to get excited about our DLR trip. What can I do?????????? I guess b/c this is my first trip to DLR. I grew up on WDW (going at least 2x a year). DH grew up on DLR since he is from Cali! Jen, HEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!
