DIS/DISUnplugged/Dreams December Event Info DISapalooza

[ragtopday]

So I have some news that just brightened my day.....

My car only had a broken/stuck thermostat. I don't need a new engine or a new car. And I think the boss is even going pick up the tab.

I like to count my blessings everyday. (And up at the top of that list are friends like y'all)

ETA: I'd be better if I got a certain PM from a DISer with a certain color hair.............

Phew! That's great news about your car! And how awesome that your boss might pick up the tab - even better!!

I just booked POP for DAP!! 235 bucks for three nights. For what it cost in points, I figured I was better off banking the points and/or renting them later.

Nice Don!

Thanks to those who have posted about kids being welcome at the DIS sponsored events - great info!

I would love to participate in DATW, but my kids would definitely not enjoy that! So I'll have to think about it - maybe a Kids Club for a little while, maybe bring my mother or the best option would be to leave them home, but I'm not sure that will be doable. I do appreciate the input though - knowledge is power!

Hi Kristin! We are doing both Osborne Lights in DHS and Yeehaa Bob at POR's River Roost Lounge on Thursday night if you are there. Both events will certainly be kid friendly. Even though Bob's show is at a lounge it is definately kid/family friendly. I'll behave.

Good news about the car Toddy!

What about those kids' club at the resorts?!?! I know that the DVC resorts have them...but are they the only ones that do that?!?!

Or maybe have a couple of families go in together and hire those babysitters I hear about..not sure if it's thru Disney or an outside agency...that's only of course if you feel comfortable with someone watchin your kid(s) and/or leaving them with another family kids' as well. Just throwing some stuff out there.

That is what we did with out kids at the last DATW. They loved the kids club and my three were the only ones there that night.

Congrats on 700 baby1! We actually are going to try the in room babysitting- my son isn't old enough for the kids club yet. He will be just over 2. We are going to have our own little family DATW later that week, since we are there until the 20th.......i wish we could make the DATW with you guys- but that is our first real night at WDW and the 3 kids would be pretty disappointed if we dumped them on a sitter on night 1. It is the first time at WDW for two of them. We are doing Chef Mickey's instead that night, I know, not as fun as DATW!!! Maybe I should borrow the light saber for our family DATW a few days later? yeah, i have a cool family that enjoys drinking around the world way too much....okay, maybe that is a bad thing? My mom is all excited about our DATW and offered to pay for the in room sitter, so we can get toasty!

Awesome rate at Pop Don! Where are you guys staying when you all come back at Christmas? What are your dates then when you come back?

Todd- yeah on the car- so glad it wasn't anything major!!

Yea Todd!!! Glad to hear that you dodged that bullet.

As far as the PM goes, I'm guessing silver wasn't the color you had in mind.

Sounds like Pop and SSR are the places to be for DAP!!

Heck yeah!!! Party!!!!!

We need to pick a building to all "request" so that we can really have a party!

I just requested a quote! I have no idea whether I can really do this, but....

The answer to my question might be buried someplace in these 63 pages, but I'm wondering if someone can answer me more quickly - if I go I will probably bring my children, who are 8 and 5. Are these events appropriate for young children? Or shall I cough up some extra money to bring a sitter?

Thanks!

I think you got this answered in the last 3 pages...but I think you can definitely find fun stuff to do with the kiddos!

If POP is the place to be is everyone requesting standard or preferred? Will requests be put in place for the same building so DISers can help other DISers after DATW???? I don't post much, but I've convinced my husband my imaginary friends are really fun and we need to get in on the action! I'll be putting our request in to Tracy this week for P.C.C. 2 as well!! I know, just jump on the boards and start posting right?! I try to make chat as well, but I usually forget. Maybe I should put a sticky on the dirty dishes I always seem to be doing at that time

I requested Standard. But I do hope that we sorta get together and try to request the same area...and hopefully we will sorta meet up to head to various places as we go to events, etc.

Awesome on PC 2.0!!!! I am getting excited about that, too!!!

Chat is fun! Hope to see you there on Wednesday!

You guys heard it right here! Norway boy said that he would behave!!!

I requested standard 50's, 4th floor. I love the location of the 50's and i hate having anybody stomping around above me So 50's, 4th floor. I had 50's, 4th floor, lake view in '07. I could see Illuminations, Wishes, and the fireworks from Fantasmic all from my area. I'm hoping for pool view this time. Just love seeing the pool late at night with the steam rising.

I'll scope it all out for you all since I'll be checking-in in 147 days.

That's great Todd. I'm glad this burden has been lifted from your shoulders.

That's the rate I got too. But, AP and FL resident rates for Dec haven't been released yet so it might be even cheaper!! Even if it's not, $235 is not bad for 3 nights especially when sharing.

Gosh...this sounds like a great idea!!!

I am totally game. You mind if I request close to there, too? I am not so sure about the 4th floor, though? Is it a lot quieter?

My children are coming, they will be 10 & 6 in December

Sounds good. I have no idea if the 4th is quieter. My three times at Pop I've had 4th floor and it's been quiet. The Pop thread on the resort forum recommends 4th and that's what i've always gone with cause I'm a light sleeper.

Xmas we are there from the 18th - Jan 1, split between BCV and AKV-Kidani

I don't know if we have any special building/floor requested. I can sleep through a hurricane, so noise isn't an issue with me.

I just do as I am told. Watch out when Der Kommissar is in town.

I met a guy one time that tried to sleep (drunk) through Katrina. He lived on the MS coast. And he woke up, put his feet on the floor of his second story bedroom and realized he was knee deep in water. So be careful what you try to sleep through.
