Heading back to Princess Josie's Castle-An AKV May 22-29 PTR-TR Started 6/3!

Hey there! I wanna join in too! Dana and Connie have told me about you and I see that they've told you about me too. Looks like our trip dates will overlap a bit. We will be arriving on May 27th and departing on June 5th.

My dream resort is the Poly. I check my darned email every day to see if I get one of those coveted pin codes but, so far, zilch..nada...nothing...great big ole' goose egg.

As far as the 2010 dining plan participating restaurants, we went through this whole fiasco last year too. There were lots of restaurants not included but then were added at the last second. I think that this is not a final list. Like you said, how could the restaurants at the Coronado resort not be included?

Hi there and welcome to my PTR! Connie and Dana are great aren't they? We definitely need to set up a meet. Looks like we may have one started for the 29th with Christie! I will keep my fingers crossed for you also. I've got them crossed for Mary and Becky too. Here's some pixie dust too. We've never stayed at the Poly so I'm super excited! If you decide to stay there we'll be doing a Poly meet. Becky and Mary are staying there too! Think we can talk Dana into coming over?

I'm not stressing over the ADR's anymore. I did chat with a CM and they told me the list was final but I know they've been wrong before and changed at the last minute. Did a lot of research today. Thanks for the input. It makes it easier to know someone I know has experienced this before.

This is a pic from Lindsey's first trip to the world in 2003. This is within her first 5 minutes in the park (MK) and her very first character encounter. She wouldn't go near them unless I held her. See her checking Baloo out.

Another cute pic! What kind of research did you do??

I googled "dining contracts Disney World" and there are lots of links to info. After reading several from multiple sights, I was more assured that this will be resolved. I did live chat with a CM from booking online at Connie's suggestion and the CM did tell me that the list was final. I guess this is protocol until the contracts are signed. I'm not super tore up over it anymore.

I love your blast from the past photos. Cooper finally met Baloo and King Louie in February. He kinda had the same reaction.

Sending some good vibes your way that the final list of restaurants ends in your favor.

Loving the "old pic of the day" idea.

Thanks Megan! Too funny about Cooper.

Love the picture!! Their face is always priceless when they meet a character for the first time. I really need to go to my mom's and get some pictures I started last week and have not made it to her album room, yet. I know it will be hours upon hours....

I'm glad you are feeling better about the ADR situation...I'm sure things will settle in soon...

Thanks Connie! Can't wait to see some pics from your trips of the past. I've got some really good ones but I'm just warming you guys up. The ones from my first trip in 1987 are really hilarious!

Did Dayne get going?? I really hope he is back on the road.

 

[longing2Batdisney]

They are back out there right now!! I'm not sure what is going on?!? I'm sure he will be running by the weekend...Danny has been getting home after 7pm and leaving for work at 5am...needless to say he is sooooo tired but he is trying to help Dayne(he does not work on Fridays-so, I'm sure that is when it will all come together --unless he gets it now)...I know he called me today and asked me to get the number you gave me for Mike ready for him incase he needs to call him tomorrow.

I bet he is tired. Be sure to give Danny my cell and work number too. If he has trouble reaching Mike have him call me and I will get Mike on the phone. Want to get Dayne on the road right away. I will give Mike a heads up to stop what he is doing if he gets a call from Danny.

Oh yeah, I measured Josie today...just turned 4 a month ago....we still have 4 more inches before we reach 40. We need truckloads of pixie dust over here. Bless her heart, she'll probably be driving before she can ride ToT, RnR, or EE.

Aww, what a little mini cutie!! Emily turned 3 in July and only has an inch to go before next Oct. We can't wait to take her on Splash mtn!

 

[longing2Batdisney]

Bless her heart!!! that was one of the other reasons Danny wanted to wait until Nov Ashton is a whole 38" so he is hoping that he will be 42" by that time.

so, the guys are inside! I think Danny is so tired he can't make heads or tails about anything! and he just found out today that he is suppose to work Friday!! I wish he would get a fire under his foot and look for another job!! I believe he would be alot happier--he and my cousin work together as the shipyard supervisor's and my cousin is this real nervous nelly (Danny is the only one who can tolerate him--go figure) well he is driving Danny nuts and they have so much going on at the moment (they are all under a great deal of stress)!!

But, they have a vacum leak and it is back firing...I wish he would just leave the car alone until he has some rest?!? I know if he was rested he would not be having these problems--he is sitting across from me reading the book that came with it at the moment.

Have a great evening!
Connie

 

[longing2Batdisney]

they just went back out there again! I really think Danny is just so tired...but, I guess he found something when he was reading!!!

EDIT: so, they just took it for a ride--fixed the back fire but still having an idle problem and a small fuel leak (he said--will play again tomorrow; hopefully he will be home earlier and can give it a little attention)
Thanks!
Connie

Thanks Wendy! It's so fun to experience new things through their eyes. I can't wait to take Josie on the cool rides either...it's going to be a while though.

How are you feeling girl? Not much longer now. Any names picked out?

Hopefully they can get it worked out. If not have them call or email. If you shoot me an email I can get that to Mike also. He has a blackberry too. I can have him call Danny tonight too if you'd rather do that. Just let me know.
