DDA Chapter 9

[tinknme]

I had read that this was coming, but this is the first time I have seen a date on it. 8/12 is the last time we are planning to be at Epcot, so I guess that works out OK for us. I almost want to pop back over and see the show without the globe, just out of curiosity.

I'm sure I will, just to check it out!

I have one more batch of shirts to make & that will be done when I can decide on a design I like.

I have to get a few memory cards for the camera. We also need to get a DVR for the car..can't drive 20 hours without one! I am slowly accumulating snacks, drinks, toiletries, etc for the trip & putting them in a pile. I also bought the kids supplies for school & they are in backpacks (just the girls) by the door so I do not have to worry about back to school stuff when we return. For Daniel I just paid $35 & they have all his stuff labeled for him at his desk on the first day..no worries...

This summer seems to be going so fast & I don't want school to come too quickly!

Would you like to make my shirts as well?? Actually thank you for reminding me to work on them this weekend. But I need to get soda ash before I can start them. They are several steps, first tie dying, then iron ons. I need to get working on them.

That is wonderful news! How was your day at the pool?

Wonderful. We were there for 3 hours, it wasn't that crowded and the water was delightful.

 

[tinknme]

How about pins or resort buses or ... you choose!

Or should I purchase the DDP or not for our Aug. trip I thought I had it all figured out, but after talking with the boys today I don't think so. I was going to cancel some of the TS I had reserved, but they want me to keep them all!

So now I am rethinking again & we only have 18 days left

 

[Tammi67]

So the kids are gone, Bob and I aren't speaking (minor tiff) and here I am. I'm actually looking forward to a nice, quiet evening at home, doing whatever I want, or nothing at all. And here I sit.

Get the dining plan. Get the dining plan. Get the dining plan.

Way to ruin her trip, Janet.

I just wanted to prepare her because I know she loves this one as well

 

[ReAnSt]

On findoos, how do you actually select which alerts you would like to get? I have been signed up for awhile but unable to get alerts as it does not let me select which ones I would like to receive. I have verified the account.

Hope you & Bob work things out quickly!

I remember...........Le Cellier.

Time to pick Riley up, chat with you all later!

I always looked forward to the end of the summer because people got tired of going to the pool and we would have it almost to ourselves. I am glad you had fun.

Well, our resident TA told me you can always add it as long as you pay in full! But, I know what you mean, Janet. We had Deluxe Dining for September but canceled that package and got just a room with AAA discount. We may decide to add the dining back in later, but for now, we are planning to use DDE.

Then for December... right now we are looking at doing CL with the regular DDP but who knows... we might go for Deluxe Dining instead.

Sorry the kids are gone and even sorrier that you and Bob are not speaking. I hope you enjoy your evening as much as I enjoyed my day of doing absolutely nothing except DISing and trip planning!

I also hope you are able to go to Lake Anna tomorrow. Looks like perfect weather for being on the water.

I was able to choose the ones I wanted without a problem. Do they have a Customer Service link?

Thanks. I'm sure we will be fine. Like the song says, I just want to be mad for awhile.

Elin - I must have missed it. I didn't know you dropped the DxDP. And after all the meal planning you did.

How about pins or resort buses or ... you choose!

There hasn't been much talk about resort buses lately. Not on Transportation, not on DVC, not on Resorts. Of course EVERY time somebody brings it up on Resorts they move it to Transportation, which irks me because I think they get more responses on Resorts.

If you do, could you please send her my way?

Definitely!

I'm sure I will, just to check it out!

We could potentially go 8/15. That's our water park day, and we have dinner at Boma at 6-ish. If we could get a bus to Epcot after dinner we could see the show without the globe.

We're doing DxDDP for 7 nights, DDE the rest of the time. I think it will end up being a waste of money to have DxDDP but I couldn't resist!

Sorry you guys are having a spat. We have plenty of those around here if you hadn't noticed.

Elin, I don't think you guys go many places that have "holiday pricing" but it certainly makes the DDP more attractive!

Debbie - I know you asked about the Cape May dinner and I never did remember to answer you! Thursday, August 14, 5:45 PM!

I don't know that song but I like the sentiment!

We have kept the ADRs and plan to eat at them whether or not we add it back in. I realized that the full package would have to be paid in full in the middle of my slowest month of teaching. Not smart! We have DDE so one way or another we won't be paying full price for our meals!
