If you don't mind normal water, you can just ask for ice water at counter service places, even if you're not buying anything else.

Oh, I didn't know that! As long as the tap water tastes decent, I have no problem with that!

AmySue... i have my almost roomies treasures too since we worked on the scavenger hunt together, i thought they needed a treat.

 

[tinkermell]

Awwwww, that's so nice that we all want to look pretty for each other.

Too bad they don't have a skinny bod in an application bottle.

I wasn't going to start the replies, cuz I just had so much to catch up on.

But this one really made me laugh! Thanks Capri!

Now to churros and dole whips, POC and Indy. Blasphemas I tells ya!!

I dyed my hair this morning and had it cut today. Tomorrow I going to do my nails and toes myself. I would love to have someone do it, but just don't have the time, and right now that money sounds better for something else, if you know what i mean.

Beth, it it so nice to see you again.

Michelle, I really hope you can come. Maybe right now, you need to be with us, and just have fun!!

Heather/lillycat, I hope you can still come for awhile. Take care of yourself and that little babe.

After some consulting and duking it out, Cristabel has been officially added to the Three Mouseketeers.

My suitcase still is sitting on the floor from Sunday. Capri, thanks for reminding me of my underware. That needs to hang dry.

Aunt Flo has come and gone as of today!! (Yes...ladies, she still comes and visits me.)

Umm.......What else?

Oh....I know................

I am so excited to see all of you on Thursday.

 

[disney-super-mom]

Oh thank goodness. On a "girls trip" I took to San Diego last November, one of the women forgot underwear and *didn't go buy any*. Just went commando the whole time AND talked about it.

The last thing I need is to be known as "Commando Capri" on the ladies trip.

 

[fairykin]

I know I can't wait either Melody!!!
Big Hug Big Hug Big Hug

It's going to be so much fun packaging the prizes for the scavenger hunt on thursday afternoon.. i am really looking forward to that. We can visit and laugh!

 

[bumbershoot]

Oh, I didn't know that! As long as the tap water tastes decent, I have no problem with that!

I thought it did. Especially with ice.



And my water will have a bit extra taste, b/c I picked up this stuff called True Lemon. It's like the idea of the Crystal Light packets, but it's basically just crystalized lemon, no artificial sweeteners in it. I'd never even seen it, because it's kept next to the artificial sweeteners, but then from a post last week from a Disneyland groom I found Disneyworld groom's ceremony report, and from there I found a totally separate Disneyworld bride's blog, and she doesn't do artificial sweeteners either, and she had a write-up about the product! I was intrigued and it's pretty good! Hubby got a different one, True Orange, but I don't know if it's tried it yet.


Packing: I have a high drawer in the closet (our condo has a pseudo California Closet in it and I bogarted those drawers) that has our Disney stuff in it...lanyards, pins, autograph books, oh all sorts of stuff. So I'll just grab various things from there, and then I need to repair a poncho or two (bringing an extra in case anyone needs one for my 10 times on Grizzly, but it'll have repair work on the back b/c of how hubby "helped" Eamon rearrange the poncho, LOL). I have a stack of clothes I"m bringing in the laundry room (why put 'em away, right?), and it'll all go quickly from there, I think.

Of course I have an extra day than most of you, so talk to me in 24 hours about how much I'm freaking out!

 

[CaliforniaDreamer]

That's how I ride it too. I don't hold on *at all*. The one time I held on, I limped off just like my extremely thing and fit (and younger) brother and SIL do from that ride. I actually think it adjusts my spine, when I ride it relaxed.

AHA! Hmmm, maybe that's the secret.

Oh thank goodness. On a "girls trip" I took to San Diego last November, one of the women forgot underwear and *didn't go buy any*. Just went commando the whole time AND talked about it.

That is the funniest thing I've read on this thread... Oh spare me from one of those!

 

[jordansmomma]

We don't have a group plan. It is BYOB But, I can highly recommend the Tomorrow land terrace breakfast platters and/or burritos etc. Maybe get some ladies in line and then send a small smattering to grab some breakfast?

And then there is the Blue Ribbon Bakery, but the line seems to be long for that.

Maybe leave the hotel early and hit McDonalds on the way in. I may go that route, because it does not take precious park time and I am an early riser anyhow. I actually like there coffee too!

Oh I am early riser also!! Maybe we can get coffee & breakfast together!

Unpacking...OK, I have three Castaway Club lanyards with plastic ticket holders. Anyone want these before I toss them?

Also have Castaway Club pencil holder with small pencils and stencil for kids. These were giveaways on the cruise.

Going going....

I will take whatever you have left. The boys would love them.

 

[disney-super-mom]

I am so excited to see all of you on Thursday.

Mel, I can't wait to see you too!.....I can't wait to see everyone!!!

 

[stacielee]

Do you know if they have these tanks in woman's sizes (like 2x) at Wal-Mart? I need to find one to wear under the white tink shirt and I am running out of time! I already checked Target and Lane Bryant. My next stop was going to be either Wal-mart, or maybe Kohls?

I know I saw an XL, can't remember what else, there was white, black and nude.

BTW, did you all know that the ones they have at Target are actually made by Spanx? It says so right on the tag, even though they call them Assets, or something like that.

It is a great group!

Dumb Aunt Flo!! She's always shows up when she's least welcome.

I'm expecting Aunt Flo anytime between now and Friday, such timing!!

Sounds like such a nice day at the park. Those wait times are GREAT!

The first time I rode Indy, I thought it was bumpy and jerky too, but the more I rode it, the less jerky/bumpy it became, and with every ride it became more fun. It's one of my favorites now. I could ride it over and over.

I HAVE rode it over and over, as well as Screamin, Space, BTMRR, even TOT. At night, it's more fun to ride the outdoor rides, and Space gets faster as the day goes on. Whoo-Hoo!!!

Is it Thursday yet???Is it Thursday yet???Is it Thursday yet???Is it Thursday yet???​

 

[grumpyvet]

I am THE suckiest person on this trip! Augh.

Hey, somebody has to be it, kind of you to volunteer!!!!!

The last thing I need is to be known as "Commando Capri" on the ladies trip.

Why this tickled me so, I don't know, somehow pictured the Commando Barbie and the slaughtered stuffed moose!!!!

Gotta go sew, will check back!!

[jordansmomma]

So I have been cleaning like crazy since I got home. But checking online all evening. Man am I beat!!!!

Well I just finished my SHIRT!! YAY!!
It is the first time I have ever done this!! But she looks great!!!!
I am pretty happy with it!!!

I still have zero packed!! I am only working a half a day tomorrow so I will pack when I get off work.


So all I have left to do is finish the laundry. Clean the bathroom, mop the kitchen, and buy some groceries & then pack.

Ugh, I have to clean tomorrow. My MIL is watching the boys on Saturday.....heaven forbid the house is, you know, lived in.

 

[Sherwin]

HI ladies.

Sticking my head in just to say that I hope you guys have an AWESOME Dis-fueled trip and please bring back lots of photos. 10,000 at least.

Thanks so much, and we'll definitely bring back LOTS of photos.....and stories I'm sure.

 

[grizbuzz]

If they are not taken, I could use a lanyard, seem to lose mine each trip. I've even been to Castaway Cay, so I wouldn't even be putting on airs!!!


Thanx.

One lanyard for Amy.

I will take whatever you have left. The boys would love them.

You get the other two lanyards and the pencil kit.

OK, I have emptied out my bags and piled all my stuff on my bed. Now I have to put all the stuff away or no sleeping!

No kidding!!
My BFF is staying on Wed-Fri. She is a stay at home mom, so her house is
always clean. My house is clean. But I still feel the need to make it SUPER clean!!
Then my childrens dad is coming Fri-Mon. I know that I am going to end up spending Monday cleaning up their mess from the weekend!!!

 

[CaliforniaDreamer]

Hello!!!! It is almost time!! I will be arriving on Thursday in the AM sometime, I know others will be as well, who?

Since we don't get the cell phone list until Thursday night, how do we meet up?

I am sure all of this has been covered, but I am too lazy and unfocused to figure it out.

AMy Sue

Hi - I am a local so I will also be there in the morning (like 11?)

Okay I don't have time to post replies to everyone. I have been working on the lanyards, almost done (I hope). I didn't put the Carnation Cafe times down because of variations. I'll have a pen and 1 schedule and can write the time next to Carnation Cafe as I hand them out. Also I printed the itinerary cards before the big group picture. I'm sorry about that. Please remember that the group picture is in front of the castle at 1015 (just before the scavenger hunt).

I still have to go through my bag (I've been throwing things in that I know I'll need for the trip) to ensure that I have everything I need for this trip.

I can't wait for Thursday and am wishing that I didn't have to work tomorrow.

Hope you all have a good night.
