January 2009. . . Calling all Snowbirds ~ Part I !!!

[Momof2Disneyboys]

Does everyone want me to try to get a running list of everyone's ADR's going???

 

[2disneygirls]

Oh yeah, that'd be cool!

I just changed my Crystal Palace to an earlier time so we can try to see SpectroMagic.....hopefully it'll be early enough!!ooh:

 

[Momof2Disneyboys]

Okay I will give it a try!

I know a lot of you have already listed your ADR's, but if you could do it again that would be great!

Maybe just list them like this, with your name above them: example-

Momof2disneyboys
Jan 21 - 1900 Park Fare 6:00pm
Jan 22 - Mama Melrose 5:00pm
Jan 23 - Tusker house 8:00am
etc. . .

That will make it easier for me to copy and paste! Thanks!

WHAT???

Any ADRs for dates after January 25 will have to made in late October (except for CRT, Chef Mickey's and V&As which can still be done in the normal 180 day window) due to the "upgrade" of Disney's reservation window.

I have to admit, that was part of the reason we moved our trip from Feb to Jan! (obsessive planner, much?) Although we'll still have a few days there after Jan 25.

From what I understand, they're not giving out a definitive date in October yet, either.

Welcome Distherapy! What are your dates?

They really should give us a date to call back on, otherwise people (like us!) are just going to keep calling back and bothering them all the time!

Any matches???

 

[sharadoc]

I'm planning to make a few matching t-shirts with our family name, etc. I even got Scot to agree to wear one! And my Mom! But those Mickey shirts were too cute to pass up, and for that price, I can't make one! They didn't have the same design in anything bigger than an adult small or I'd have bought them for the grown-ups too. None of us are smalls.

I'm really enjoying reading about all of your trip planning and discussions! Thanks for including me with the snowbirds!

I bought some great Tees there too - classic Mickeys for the whole family, and some neon matching shirts. My DH and DS got matching neon Goofy and my DD got a neon Tink. There wasn't a Tink in my size, so I'm going to scan a neon design and make mine to match the group. Maybe you can still make something that matches the kids shirts - at least you'll only have to make a couple.

That $4.99 sale is awesome. I also got Princess sunglasses for $2.99 and the Mulan crown and fan for $4.99, plus free shipping, and 20% off my order from some code. I think my daughter has enough shirts for the entire trip. I have to STOP!

Sunglasses! I missed sunglasses! BUMMER! I wonder if it's too late for me to add to my order!

Hey Shelley, our "Mama Snowbird" - here's a suggestion and more work for you! You're doing such an AWESOME JOB with this list. I LOVE having all of you to talk to and read about your planning and adventures!

How about listing ADRs by restaurant, then by date. Or by date, then by restaurant. It would give us all a chance to see if there's a chance for a meet-up. Like if I plan to be at Tusker House for dinner on January 26, I can look at either the Jan 26 list or the Tusker House list and see if any of my fellow Snowbirds are going to be there! If you want some help, maybe some of us could volunteer to keep a list. Like one of us could do each do ADRs for each park, resorts and DTD.

Starting Friday, we'll have no more ADRs to list until October, so this could fill up the time. We could do a WISH list between now and when we can make our next round of ADRs. It could even help if we want to set up a meet-up.

I guess I have too much time on my hands. We would need a separate list for this if it really gets organized!!!

What a great idea I would like having lists made up of either restaurants or by dates too-I think that would be more organized. I don't have my list of ADR's with me, but once I get it, I can submit them. If Amreli sends hers in, mine will be the same.
