Same here... PRAYING that the CBA will be taken care of before the Sept 15th deadline. I say, get the 2 buttons. It may not BE your birthday, but you will BE CELEBRATING your birthday. (It's a Disney loophole that Roy put on the books in 1979). In regards to the Photopass, you can pre-order the CD for $120 or you get the Photopass card for free from your first Photopass photographer. They give you that 1st card and you keep using it every time you stop. Then when you get back, you pick and choose which pics, items of CD's you want to buy. But I say, why stop there...? Compare the price of a CD ($170/$120 with a pre-order) to the Photopass+ ($200/$170 with a pre-order

I haven't pre-ordered our Photopass+ card yet. But we will be getting 1. There will be no ride that will be unphotographed where I look like a big sissy.
