DDA Chapter 20

[lovesdumbo]

Jennifer-this is from mousesavers:
Guests who already hold a valid annual pass or multi-day ticket (such as those included in vacation packages) that they will use on their birthday may choose from other birthday treats instead; however, no cash refunds or credits will be given. The other treat options include:

A birthday fun card in an amount equal to the price of a One Day/One Park base ticket for you to use on your birthday for merchandise, recreation or fun activities at select participating locations; or

A special birthday FASTPASS badge for certain attractions at the Theme Park you visit on your birthday; or

A nonupgradeable One Day/One Park base ticket for you to use any time until your next birthday.

Guests can get more details and start the process by registering their birthdays at disneyparks.com.



I'll find out if you have to use it on your birthday as I plan on getting the gift card.

The birth certificate has to be an official copy-one with a raised seal NOT a photo copy.

This company is the BEST!!!!!!! I can' say enough good things about them....they have gone above and beyond for us several times....both Bob & Roger are terrific!

Thanks!!!!


I just looked at Jet Blue. My flight on Saturday is $399 one way (I paid $154) but the same flight on Sunday is sold out. There is a 6am flight that connects in NY that is $349 on Sunday but "only" $184 on Saturday. Maybe Sunday is busier than Saturday. DH isn't convinced town car is worth the $$$. I don't mind ME but I didn't enjoy the 1 hour wait last year.

 

[PNO4TE]

okay i am overwhelmed. I have no clue what size car we should rent. 2 adults 3 kids Olivia will be 6 so no booster needed but Ryan is 4 so needs booster and Virginia needs her car seat. What size should I look at?

I would look at a full-sized/standard. But I probably wouldn't get a car at all. What are you planning to do that requires a car?

 

[UP Disney]

Well, you and I seem to be in the rarity in today's technological age. I didn't "peek" at either of mine. Boy did I catch grief from everyone about "How can you plan? How do you know what to buy?" Gee, I wonder how our parents ever got ready for babies? That's nothing against all of you who had to find out. It just wasn't for me.

I was the same way.

 

[lovesdumbo]

Jennifer-I wouldn't get a car either. I found it harder to get the stroller on the parking lot trams than I did getting it on the bus.

I found this on the Disney website and it does NOT say you have to use it on your birthday.

maybe I will let her use it for BBB. What do you think?

I did not like using the buses last time with a double stroller.

As Bernadette pointed out, you still have to deal with the stroller on the trams. If it were me, I'd save several hundred dollars and put up with hauling the stroller on the bus a few times a day. Or consider just taking a single and having Olivia walk. You will find people here with strong opinions on car v. bus. For me, I can't justify the added expense, so I'm very pro bus, stroller or not.

I think whatever you decide, it will be great.

[Tinkaroo]

Hi, all!

Thanks for the kind "welcome backs" - I'm sorry I keep disappearing!

I am feeling better these days - my skin is still a wreck and my typical migraines last longer w/o being able to take the right meds, but the nausea, for the most part, is gone. I'm just hungry all the time! And I'm at that weird "is she just packing on the pounds, or is she pregnant?" stage - I just can't get excited about maternity clothes, either. We're less than 2 weeks out from our 20-week u/s - I'm really excited to peek! 2 weeks in gender purgatory is plenty long for me, thank you!

Chanon - great pics! I"m so excited that you guys got to visit with he/she today.

Deb - did lacrosse get canceled? I'm glad your week from you-know-where is about up. I'm with you - lifeguarding should not be so stressful - at least from a managerial standpoint!

Elin - cool license plate!

Tammi - I hope tomorrow's meeting goes well. Is there a light at the end of this tunnel for you?

Becky - I hope you get some restful sleep tonight, and more time for yourself soon!

Welcome back, Glynis! I'm glad Timothy is starting to cooperate more.

Theresa - I'm sorry the job fair today was such a bust.

Elizabeth - I'm glad you have an appt. with the neuropsych! I keep thinking May is still far away, and it's so not. I hope he's able to come up with some solutions.

Marci - I'm glad to hear your recuperation is coming along - I'm just sorry that PT hasn't started, and that it's likely to be so painful. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help!

Jennifer - I've heard you can use the birthday gift card throughout your trip - it doesn't all have to be used on the birthday. Good luck with all of your plans! You guys are going in July, right? I've heard good things about Garden Grocer and WeGoShop for grocery delivery, but have never tried any, as we always do a rental car.

Hi Lindsay. I hope yours and Chanons Migraine improve. I had a few with Olivia but had several with Virginia.

yes July 12- 20. Olivia's Birthday is July 12. Thanks i remembered garden grocer but could not remember the other one. We will need pepsi and milk. That is another reason i was considering car rental. but that is overwhelming trying to figure out which size we would need. I need to figure out ADR's s I don't think we want to wing it with meals. I will need to call in the next day or two as I am already 80 days out.

 

[bear74]

okay going to bed. work in the morn. Lindsay what date is your sono?

 

[Tammi67]

Did someone else have it, or what? Very cool!
