Anyone out there familiar with the MDE app? I've got stuff like Dining and hotel reservations on the itinerary on Disney's website, but it's not showing up on the app?

Did you link your reservation in MDE? Go to Menu > My Reservations

There they are! I was expecting to see them in my plans when I went to that date. But they aren't there. Are they supposed to be?

Just purchased my MNSSHP tickets for October this morning.

They are on the site and on sale for those that have been waiting.
.

Which night? We get a DVC discount for select nights. I was hoping to wait until next credit card cycle on the 22nd before buying them.

I usually can find them under my plans, however some notes you enter about non-reserved items don't appear.

Well I am a blasphemer.
For me caramel type bars tend to be rather tough and chewy, peanuts are my least favorite nut and milk chocolate is almost too sweet to even get down. I find most industrial candy bars are way too sweet in general. Now, if the thing were made with a whipped nugget, rolled in cashews, almonds, walnuts or pecans (or all of them) and then covered in dark chocolate at 65% cacao or higher , then I’d have a hard time ignoring it.
?

My retirement plans include an all candy bar diet. I'll let you know when I start so you can see invest in Mars or Hershey.

I hope David doesn't mind, here are some pictures form facebook,
I think they like each other.

Thanks Randal. That answers my question with a resounding affirmative.

David…
You done good sir.
May you all continue to know that level of happiness.

Well just as long as your not too picky.

If you’re gonn’a eat something that is designed primarily to hasten your death…
Then you might as well at least enjoy it.

I’ll keep that in mind.
Do you think you can consume enough of them to generate the proper economies of scale needed to rocket those stocks skyward?

Took a trip to San Antonio this weekend and got some scouting photos for Don to help him decide to move

A Texas Cinnamon Roll



Cheese Fries



And a Small Chicken Fried Steak with Queso

And this is how you reheat the cinnamon roll in your hotel if you dont have a microwave

I don't have enough thumbs for this.

I will come to Texas solely for this.

Hey guys. So left at 2300 last night and arrived in the Cape this morning.

It was a good in eventful drive. So I had the ford focus for a rental I went back to enterprise to get a small SUV. When I got there they told me they had a Chevy Equinox and a Hyundai Tuscan I looked at the two of them told the lady I wanted the Equinox. We go back inside and she looks for the keys and the guy next to her is renting it to someone else. My first thought is of course that's my luck lately. I tell her well I guess I will take the Tuscan. She says wait a minute and then she takes me out side and shows me another SUV but it would be way more than I'm willing to pay. She says ill give it to you for the same price as the Equinox. I of course say I will take it.

I am very happy with the way it worked out it's the Buick Enclave and it's like driving a lazy boy. All the gadgets makes it very nice to drive.

I can put 150 miles day on occasion. I wish they would just give me a car, but it's a great way to pass on all those business expenses to me.

Yeah it is kinda crazy they won't give you a car.

. A bit more than an hour and half to the northwest of there. When traveling I’m generally headed either farther north or west so I don’t get down that direction very often. If for some reason I find myself headed down toward Columbia though, then it wouldn’t be all that far out of the way.

I might be headed north west to see my Aunt I will let you know more when I do.

Wow! That sucks. I'm glad you're ok... I mean getting stranded in flood water could have ended up worse than that. Sorry about the car though. I hope you can get a little help with your deductible.

The fact that my wife couldn't drive a stick would just be another reason for me to get one. .

Yeah it's a bummer and hopefully we will be able to get the money back but we will see.

I have thought about that same thing. I love driving a manual.

Arrived at the hotel at 1935 hours..So we did 1225 miles in 18 hours and 4 minutes with three gas stops. Yes I am an engineer. Only traffic issues on the south end of the eastern spur of Jacksonville beltway.

Good work. How long will you be in the world I get there on the 12th.

The low-tech microwave. Love it

I wish we could play one of the 7:00 games..

Only gets worse, next game is 8:30 my time 9:30 your time - at least it is on a Friday. DS had a big test this morning but stayed up to watch the unraveling last night.

Disney's telephone reservation line has been busy since 10AM this morning. I am guessing it has to do with the FD promotion and people booking like crazy. I'm trying to see if my room on October qualifies or not. If not, I can apply the bounce back promotion while I am there in August. Thought I would take the FD fro now and then change when there if it's a better deal.

There they are! I was expecting to see them in my plans when I went to that date. But they aren't there. Are they supposed to be?

No, it doesn't automatically update to the "my plans" section. You have to add it manually. Hopefully they'll add it with the next software update.

Which night? We get a DVC discount for select nights. I was hoping to wait until next credit card cycle on the 22nd before buying them.

The only night it is being held while we are there is Sunday, October 5th so I wanted to get it booked asap just in case of a sell out. I know it's unlikely, but it would have really been a bummer to sit in my room and cry while the party was going on if we got shut out. It is DD's birthday present.

They have it on Friday night 10/3, but flying in and not sure we could get there in time to enjoy it.

It looks really good! If you send 800 of them to Norm he'll make sure to send them to all the dads.

That is a good looking family.

I had problems with the app and realized I hadn't downloaded the newest version. They keep tweaking it and after the download everything worked. I always use "My Reservations" instead of "My Plans." Seems to work better for me. Sometimes though, Tickets and FP+ will not show but after a reload, they pop up.

Going to our first MNSSHP this October. The Pirate Princess will be flying to Orlando for part of the time and I have figure out the logistics before I buy the tickets. Hopefully it will be one of the DVC discount nights.

If you want to see a team totally unravelled, feel free to watch the Bruins game tonight. Not sure what it is about the Canadians and Rask, but every time we play them he seem to not be able to stop the puck from going in the net. Of course when we pass to the guy streaking out of the penalty box for a breakaway, it's not entirely helpful. Still shaking my head at that one.

Good luck. Would like to see both back in the finals for a rematch.

I would but he is backordered from all the dues he still owes me. You can call them and have one shipped directly to you. :210-222-9422

Quick update....we stayed at the new Embassy Suites last night. It's right near the juncture of 535 and 192. Very nice place, great suite layout and the free breakfast is pretty elaborate. Not quite Crystal Palace but lots to eat and made while you wait choices as well. Picking up our Annual Passes was a bit time consuming because DVC complicates issues, but it worked out and so far they've gotten us through our room door without issue. We try them at MK tomorrow, so thinking happy thoughts. Lattah.
