Going back to our 'happy place" w/pics link to my trip report( 9/7)

[dismom9761]

The Florida Mall, last time we went to an outlet but they didn't have anything to fit oldest DD so she got nothing

Sorry no I haven't seen that!

For cheap travel things I found lots of free printable Disney crosswords, wordsearches etc for the DD's and made a book for them, also I found a site where you can make your own puzzles, I made one all about our trip, rides, restaurants etc and also a HSM one click here! I'll let you know when I return if they liked them

Thanks for the link.I may print some but they will have alot of homework to do too.
Are ya'll going to go to Walmart at all?That is the cheapest place for DS games and there is one really close to WDW.

Homework Really!

I would love to go to a Walmart or Target but we don't have a car so would have to taxi and I'm such a cheapskate I hate not knowing how much it will cost to get there and seeing the dial going up and up Don't suppose it's walkable?

 

[dismom9761]

Nope not walkable. Wish you would be there a little longer and I would take you. It would only take about seven hours to drive down...hmmmm...

Here is a picture of the Goofy I am looking for.

Well if you left really really early you could drive down take me for a couple of hours shopping and drive back in time to tuck the kids into bed

 

[ShhhQ]

Okay I am in desperate need of everyone's help.Peyton saw a Goofy stuffed ...thingy on someone's trip report and it is the only thing he has talked about spending his money on.She got it at a yard sale. It is round like a pillow with the goofy hat on it.Has anyone seen anything like this??I think it was on heath-and-javens-mom .

Ok... I found it! Took me a while cause it's not actually a pillow... but your picture helped! It is actually Goofy Rock & Giggle Plush Toy

Don't feel bad, I leave on Tuesday and I haven't packed one article of clothing

 

[mickeymouseclubhouse]

Hi,

I'm so glad someone found the goofy plush toy your ds wanted!! I looked for it on ebay and couldn't find it! It's definitely unique!

 

[dismom9761]

I have been working on each day's plan so here is Friday 8/31.
Mk hours 9:00am-7:00pm
Dad's ECV will arrive at 8:00am and we will be ready to go to the busstop as soon as the delivery man leaves.We should make rope drop.
1.Go straight to Dumbo except for dad who will stop at Mickey's Philharmagic for FP
2.Winnie the Pooh
3.Peter Pan's Flight
4.Cinderella's Golden Carrousel
5.Teacups
6.Goofy's Barnstormer
Everyone but dad and myself will ride Walt Disney World Railroad to second stop at Splash Mountain
7.Splash if line is short
FASTPASS for Big Thunder
8. ride Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
9.Pirates of the Caribbean
If it is not 11:00 we will ride the carpets or Tiki Room.If it is we will eat lunch-probably at Casey's.I will run for a FP for Buzz sometime before or after lunch.
10.Enchanted Tiki Room if we didn't do it before lunch.
11.ride Big Thunder Mountain with FP
Head over to Tommorrowland
12.Space Mountain with baby swap pass.while Rebekah,Peyton,Grandma and I ride this Rachel will play in the mister with Grandpa watching.
13.ride Buzz
14.Monster's Inc. show
15.ride the TTA
After all of this we will use the FP for Mickey's Philharmagic,ride Its A Small World or shop.The only thing that is a must is the 3:00 parade.We will leave MK by 5:30 to take the monorail to Chef Mickey.
After Chef Mickey we will either go to the resort and swim or take the monorail over to EPCOT for EMH 9:00-12:00am.Or possibly split up and some go to EMH and some go to the resort.

Anyone see anything I have missed?Or something that could be done better? I think this is pretty close to what we did last year but I am not feeling very well and I have taken nyquil which is making me a little fuzzy headed. Plus all of this will take longer if Rachel doesn't hit the 40" mark and we have to take turns riding more of the rides.

Here is a picture of the kids playing in the mister thing that Rachel absolutely loves.

You bought some great shirts and other surprises today Harley! I enjoyed it alot!

Don't feel bad, I leave on Tuesday and I haven't packed one article of clothing

You need me to come and help?? I love to pack. Tuesday will be here before ya know it!

Hi,

Thanks for looking for it for me. I was so excited when I checked the thread ShhhQ had found it already.

 

[dismom9761]

I forgot to tell what I bought at the DIsney store.I got Rachel a Little Mermaid shirt from the Studio collection.I also got her a Cinderella barbie and got Rebekah a Daisy Duck plush.I will give these to the girls when I give Peyton the Goofy that ShhhQ found. i would post pics but my camera is not working. I will try to post pics tomorrow.

 

[dismom9761]

One more thing I forgot.....
18 more days!!!!!

 

[Tanya90210]

Plan looks great!!

Almost time for your trip!!!

 

[DisneyJo]

Morning Amy, only thing I can think in your plan is when we went mid to late August in 2005 we never needed a FP for Philarmagic it was always easy to walk on so you could maybe FP something else

 

[lexmelinda]

I love the picture of the kids in the mister! So cute!

The only thing I see on the itinerary is that the FP machines for Philharmagic were closed when we were there in late September. It was a walk on! Bonus!

 

[Sooze]

You're getting closer! Quick question for you.. do you always plan specific rides and the order in which you ride them? Do you find that makes the trip easier? It just seems so specific... I never done the TGM thing, but I think that's what he does. I don't know.. it just seems confining to have a list of rides to go to in order.

But, then again, I've never tried it!

 

[zigzagzerr]

That one is definitely a keeper!!!

I do the same thing....figure out what rides we're going to, and in what order. But you're braver than I am -- I wouldn't post mine out here.

I think knowing in advance what your gameplan is, helps make everything run smoother. Nobody in my group will be sitting around a park map, wondering what to do next. I've got it all in the vault.

Hope you're having a great day!
