Its the Final Countdown!!!**Tag Team TR**LEAVEs FRIDAY!!!

[ILMICKEY]

OH I want to go, I want to go, now that you guys are going in a little over a month.!

You can come! I don't mind.

So seriously Nikki are you going to be one of those people kicking and screaming on the plane???? UUUUHHHHHGGGGG I had one of them on my flight to Hawaii, ummm he was like 6. Poor kid when we landed in L.A. he was asleep and woke up and puked all over the place. Ummm DON"T DRINK!!! YEah I flew to Hawaii at age 16 ALL BY MYSELF, Hello that was half way around the world! AGAIN ALL BY MYSELF! AND I LIVED TO TELL ABOUT IT!!!
you WILL BE SO FINE! It's safer than driving!!!!! So they say!

I cannot guarantee how I will act when on the plane. Brandi said she is getting a webcam for her computer. So maybe you will get to see it live!!

Ok I just had to post this because THIS WILL BE NIKKI!!!!!

This is from Campbellscot's trip report



See Nikki They landed in a hurricane and they landed just FINE!!!!!

I did read this! This is exactly how I think I will be too. I doubt I will scream and that's just for the fact they will drop me off at the nearest airport and then I'm screwed!!

Hey, by the way, congratulations on your 32lbs! You go girl. I can't seem to lose 2!!!

Simba, thanks for telling her. But I'm thinkin it's going in one ear and straight out of the other.

Since she is videoing me on the plane, I'll be videoing her with all her luggage.

 

[ILMICKEY]

Ummmmm, so guess who got her Magical Express stuff in the mail yesterday??

Did you guess?


ME!!!

What a great Monday! Okay, do I get anything else? Should I be expecting something?

Okay, I need to know how this all works. Geez, driving was so much easier. He'd drive, I'd sleep!

1. When I get to the airport, I will check my suitcase.

2. Then my carryon and I will proceed to security. (where I will be strip searched because of the terrified look I will bestow on my face)

3. When landing in Orlando, I will locate the ME counter.

4. I will board the bus to WDW.

5. Check in at pop.

6. It will be early yet so we will just go the the Park. While we are gone the nice Disney people will deliver our suitcases to our rooms?? Is this right? I also have a refrigerator to pick up, will they bring that also? Garden Grocer will also be making a delivery, when do I have them do that?

WHY DOES THIS NEED TO BE SO CONFUSING??

Thanks ! I had lost more this week but for SOME REASON I gained back 3 pounds this week! Plus their scale at weight watchers was a pound more than mine so theirs was off!

 

[b.head2008]

Once you actually do it, it will not be that bad! Just remember when you get to Orlando, you need to get on the little monorail and it will take you over to the other side of the airport. You will see some bathrooms on your left when you get there...just follow the crowd and they will take you in the right direction! You need to go DOWNSTAIRS to get to the DME counter. There are elevators that will take you down to the lower level (there's also escalators and stairs). When you get out of the elevator, turn left and go allllllllll the way down the hallway. I think the DME counter is the LAST one...and it will most likely be the only counter with a line. Go figure.

That's alright, you are still doing a wonderful job!!

Jay is dropping us at the curb baybee! You be on your own. PACK LIGHT! First class would be nice, but I'm not counting on it. I'll have to check the seating chart to see if all the seats are full. What kind of happy pill will you give me? I just want something to make me sleep for 2 1/2 hours. We can't be any late. I don't think they will wait for us. Do you really think he is going to snuggle with your dog every night? I sure hope he likes spending all day in a kennel, Matt will be driving when we go, so I'm sure he won't be home.

Thanks for the info! What about the rest? Do we have to be in our rooms when they deliver our bags? Or can we expect to have them there when we return from MNSSHP?

Nother question, Will we be able to combine our Party pics with the regular photopass CD or is that purchased separately??

We are getting real close now! 36 DAYS! I did a mock garden grocer order. I only had 24$ worth of stuff, said I had to order 40??? I don't need that much. Is there anywhere else to order from?

I am so ready to go. I think I'm going to start putting my summer stuff in my suitcase this weekend. It's supposed to get colder next week so I don't think I will need it anymore.

Did I mention I got a Rainforest Cafe gift card? I had an extra bit of money about a month ago and decided I would treat Brandi to breakfast before our AK day.

I'm getting tons of samples from the freebie thread. Little snacky things and trial size stuff to pack away.

Anyone want a postcard from the world?? PM me! I'm making that list too! Brandi, that's something I forgot to tell you. Make your address list and get some postcard stamps.

I can't believe we are down to 2 readers!! Are we that boring??

 

[ILMICKEY]

Hey!! MY TICKER IS GONE!! What the heck??

 

[DISNEY4XMAS]

That's alright, you are still doing a wonderful job!!

THANKS!!!

Thanks for the info! What about the rest? Do we have to be in our rooms when they deliver our bags? Or can we expect to have them there when we return from MNSSHP? Nope No waiting around go have FUN bags will (should) be there when you get back!

Nother question, Will we be able to combine our Party pics with the regular photopass CD or is that purchased separately??
All sohuld be the same CD.... Did you pre-pay for your CD? I hear it is cheaper!

Do a google search on internet grocers that deliver to Orlando

I am so ready to go. I think I'm going to start putting my summer stuff in my suitcase this weekend. It's supposed to get colder next week so I don't think I will need it anymore. Can I just say YOU LUCKY........UM PERSON!!! Ha thought I was going to say something else HUH??

Did I mention I got a Rainforest Cafe gift card? I had an extra bit of money about a month ago and decided I would treat Brandi to breakfast before our AK day. Sounds good let me know how it is

Anyone want a postcard from the world?? PM me! I'm making that list too! Brandi, that's something I forgot to tell you. Make your address list and get some postcard stamps. If you order stamps from usps.com you can order what ever ones you want and they have Disney ones!! Or you can Design your own!! Post office has stamps there too! Just know the Big post cards take full stamp not post card stamp

I can't believe we are down to 2 readers!! Are we that boring??

Naw I think the boards have died way down since last year!!!

 

[b.head2008]

Mom, i was doing dishes and dropped my cell phone in the sink, this vacation is going to have to bee 300 dollars cheaper Matt asked me to be his girlfriend last night, and he LOVES disney!! hes a stitch so i feel anther trip coming!

Nope, DME will deliver it whether you're there or not.

You will get a seperate Photo Pass Card for the Halloween party and it gives you a discount on prints if you purchase them that night. If you decide NOT to do that, you can combine both you regular PhotoPass and your MNSSHP Pass onto one CD.

The CD is extremely worth it if you have more than 6 pictures you want to buy. Each picture is about $15 - $20 (for 5 x 7's). I'm not sure if the price is the same, but it was $135 plus they give you a few "free" prints right then and there (FYI, the CD used to cost $100 with no "free prints" and now it's $135 and they give you prints so it sounds to me like they are in fact charging you for them, they just want to make it sound like they aren't).

But anyway, so when we went last year, I got the CD and got 2 or 3 prints "free" with Ariel's signature and stuff PLUS the MYW package gives you another free 5 x 7 so I think I got 4 for "free. Once you get the pics on CD, you won't be able to add the borders and the signatures and stuff like that. It will literally be just the picture but you can bring the CD to Walgreens or something and print out the pictures for 19 cents each or something as opposed to $15 each

I dropped mine in the toilet once and it still worked!!! Sorry you didn't so lucky! Congrats on the new BF!!

 

[ILMICKEY]

I may just go ahead and preorder it for $99. Save $25 anyway!!

New dilema though. The airlines has changed our leaving flight number. I already have my ME tags for our suitcases. WHAT DO I DO NOW?? I am freaking that our bags are going to get all messed up!!

Brandi, when did you meet him? Please don't go fast~take your time. I want you to be happy!!

Stitch?? Ewwwwwww!

Sorry about the phone. That'll teach you to poop and talk at the same time.

Hey, it's October 1st! That means
30 DAYS!!!!
Though the way the boys are nickel and diming me to death I may be eating PB sandwiches all week.

I'm getting so excited!

Hey I think the airlines see the BRIGHT YELLOW tags and just KNOW that those are DISNEY tags, SO I think you will be all right, they did that to us too! But ours was our returning flight . I called and just informed the WDW reservation people. I would do that they may be able to send you NEW tags since you suck and have only THRITY DAYS!

You're stuff won't get messed up. I think that when they scan the tags, it automatically links to your reservation and any flight changes are automatically updated. You can call DME though to confirm....

Stitch?? Ewwwwwww!

Hey! What's wrong with Stitch!? I love Stitch!

 

[b.head2008]

In My suitcase you can find.... so far
Shampoo
Conditioner
2 Toothbrushes
Toothpaste
Laundry Soap
Lysol

Body Soap

Shorts
Disney Shirts
a Sun dress

I am so excited, im starting to loose sleep cause it is so close! i am reading as much as i can. working as much as i can being nice to everyone i see for karma points! I cant believe its almost here!

 

[Simba22]

Brandi you are going to make me cry! I can feel your anticipation and I am so jealous and sad that I am not going sometime soon. I am happy for you guys though because October is, by far, my most favorite time of year to be in WDW. You guys are going to have such a great time and MNSSHP is going to be a blast. If you are into the trick or treating, and meeting characters, I highly recommend skipping the rides and attractions. The lines will be short and tempting but if you want to meet a lot of rare characters (or characters in costume anyway) just save the rides for your full MK day, or wait until close to the end of the party.

 

[b.head2008]

I love meeting them!!! im getting the autograph book where you can put the picture across from there signature! I keep reading Trip reports with the pictures from the parks being dresses up, and i dont like to look at them!!! haha i want to be surprised!!!! its gonna be a long day! Our flight is at 8:30 (right mom) and we live 2-3 hours away so were gonna have to be up at like 2, GROSS im so sleeping in the car and on the plane! and duh im a fatty i love me some candy! Carmel apples are soooo good! haha

 

[b.head2008]

Hey, hope everyones doing okay.

So 23 more days and i have the Disney Blues.
Last week i dropped my cell phone in the sink... 85 dollars ...
My wisdom teeth are coming in.
My car needs fixed ... 150 dollars ...

I have read about people who go through this and i was hoping that it wouldnt happen to me, but it looks like it is.

If theres a disney god PLEASE HELP PLEASE

 

[ILMICKEY]

It will be alright. Things have a way of working out. It has to be okay, we are past our 45 day mark and no refunds for us. Quit doing the drunk shopping and you won't be broke!!!

So you do have a new phone?? I need to know if your plans are still the same. If you are coming down Thurs. night and riding to the airport with us. If not, I have to get your ME tags sent to you. We even got these really cute luggage tags.

Your brother is having a b-day party Sat night. He's invited 16, yes 16 boys. I'm so freakin excited. We are having hotdogs and nachos. What on earth do you do with that many boys? He has no plans, a bonfire and music. He doesn't want a volleyball net so that's out. Too bad the house didn't need painting? Ooh, ooh, the decks need stained!!

Ideas would be great.

I'm going to start throwing stuff into the suitcase this weekend. I don't really need my summer stuff anymore. I can't hardly believe it's almost here. I'm stocking the house with TV dinners and hot pockets for the week. I am imagining coming home to a sink overflowing with dirty dishes, crap all over the place.

Well I guess that's it. Brandi if you have your phone on, call me. Hey hows the new boyfriend??

 

[Hsminnie]

Hey gals, my interaction is always low too. LOTS of readers, but few folks say "Hi". The good news is, the ones that DO talk are always fun and sweet!

So, how IS that boyfriend? Heehee
