Glad to be here - Planning trip for 4 & 5 Nov

[RebelRebecca]

Glad to be here. Planning a trip for Nov and am pretty excited. We have a few challenges on this trip because it's just before a major bodybuilding contest for my husband and there are a lot of little details I've had to sort out. I've been to DL about 4 times. It's the second for my DH but the first in a very long time. He really doesn't remember much about it.

I hope the days we will be there will be pretty slow so that's a plus. I haven't been to LA in a while so I am wondering...will I be ok with capri's and a t-shirt and a sweatshirt for later?

I'm a disabled vet and am planning on trying to get the Passport book so when I start feeling tired and my back and knee start giving out I can take advantage of scheduled returns. I don't normally do this so I guess I'm a bit nervous about people giving me the stink eye because my husband is a 300lb BB and my disabilities are not visible. Has anyone used this and how was your experience?

First Off Welcome to the disboards, and welcome to Disney Land.
Second- Do not worry about ppl giving you the stink eye. Even if they do just ignore them. I have had to in the past use a card that helped me with all the standing. I still have these small issues but i've been training for my race so don't expect to need it this time.

However if you need to get the card from dl guest services then get it. It shouldn't matter if yours is visible or not. Just go and have fun and ignore all those nay Sayers.

Thank you. That helps. I think it will help us both. He will be in the process of pushing water and will be needing to use the bathroom a LOT. He's also carb depleting so he's going to be tired. Between the two of us we will have some small challenges. With this and fast passes, I hope it won't be too miserable for us. I'm so excited about going

P.s. we are heading to your neck of the woods after the contest...Sedona.

We'll be there from the 2nd through the 6th. The middle of the week is predicted to be super slow so it's going to be a nice trip.

Sedona is so nice. Its my mom's favorite get away for a few nights and I like to go with them a few times. Check out the Blazing M Ranch dinner while you are near there. PM me if you want site for it but you can type in the name and the city and it will come up. My son had a good time on his b-day two years ago. When we went to the grand canyon.
(Ps i know this isn't Disney just helping new member of the site)
