July 2011:Calling all planners-Post your dates & Resort

[t_daniels]

I can put together a lime green mickey head with your disname in it I will work on it later today. I think I will make me one too!



That stinks it had magnets! I just got one too and I looked it up and down and don't see any magnets ... are there different models? Mine appears to be all zippers. Where were your magnets?



Mmmm float all the way! But I am a float person My favorite kind of float is root beer with chocolate ice cream!

Chocolate???? Hmm. Gotta try.

And you make lime green mickeys?

haha yep chocolate! I love it!

I am going to attempt to make one in photoshop Then people can print them and laminate them if they want to!

I believe it still is the tradition. I have one on my purse every year - have not yet had anyone say anything... I was thinking of laminating it though, they get really worn out.



I added your ADR as Hollywood & Vine - hope that is ok.




I got my new Baggallini for the trip. I was a little sad when I saw it had a magnetic closure, I had looked carefully and not seen it in the pictures. Last year I had a terrible time with our APs demagnetizing and I did not want that to happen again. Anyway, I was able to do a little "surgery" and remove the magnets. Luckily they were in a spot where they were not noticeable or necessary.

I looked at a few different Baggallinis, had my heart set on the City Bagg, and then I found one from Ebags, called the Piazza Day Bag. Ended up ordering it from walmart.com because they had free shipping I did notice mine has magnets too, didn't think about it demagnetizing anything...I thought it was pretty nice, I'm a little obsessive about making sure my purse/bag is closed! I'm afraid I'm somewhat of a newbie....what is AP?

Went to AAA today and got me maps/TourBooks...so that is exciting...She did tell me to wait until July 1 to ask for the TripTik -- as if I can wait THAT long...she's crazy. I'm going to be freaking out we won't get it in time. LOL!

I know - I was bummed, but I think it will be fine now that I performed surgery. This bag is the Bagallini Zip and Go - the magnet was on a pocket on the back. Not a problem, because this is where I usually slide my sun glasses case. It is deep, so I don't worry about them falling out. Last year I had the Bagallini Bon Voyage Bag which is similar to the Zip and Go but a little smaller and narrower. I think I like this one better.

I like that one! What color did you get? I liked the light purple color - wish they had that color in the Zip and Go......anyway - an AP is an Annual Pass - basically our Disney tickets. We go every year, and they are good for 35 days - which is at least 2 trips and sometimes we can squeeze in spring break too. They have a magnetic strip. Last year, it happened at least daily - sometimes more often. The purse did not seem to affect our room keys though. It was odd. No matter where I put it in the purse, they would demagnetize.....I just was not taking any chances. I would just watch where you keep any card with a magnetic strip and try to keep them further away from the magnet.

That is exciting!!! Although that is odd about the TripTik - I ordered mine online and it came really quickly and then last year I just stopped in and they already had a bunch printed for Orlando........

Grey~ Ok now You've got me wanting to see what you can do with the LGMH! Mine was kind of plain, I found a large Mickey head, colored it Lime Green in photo shop. I can't remember if I put my DIS name on it though I have to double check. Either way could you come up with something for my name to put on my bag too?

 

[gray2402]

Yep I will work on something tonight after kiddos are to bed and I can get on my imac. We'll see what I can come up with LOL

 

[wintershawl]

Oh, that would be cool. Maybe I won't have to take a random trip to Home Depot them!

In one month from today, we start our voyage. We go down to Philly to spend the night before our flight out!!!

Noticed that they added a ton of extra parades and hours to the June schedule. I hope they do the same for us. I just looked over my whole itinerary. I don't think I like it. I don't like what parks I planned for what days. I am going to think about it tonight and maybe make some changes. I'll decide for sure tomorrow.

 

[keypooh90]

We hit our 30 day mark today. So ready to go back!

I haven't looked at the park hours in a long while. Did anyone notice if they changed July's hours.

I checked earlier this week and there were no changes at that point.

For the week that I'm there they changed DHS one night and added a few more nights of Fantasmic.

I didn't check if they added parades.

 

[carrie6466]

I checked the week we're there and there are no changes yet

 

[t_daniels]

I need to check hours.. I want to try and do at least one EMH, and a rope drop!

 

[gray2402]

Ok came up with this ... I can change the outline color of the name/mickey head to whatever you like (or no outline if you prefer ...) I can also get rid of the drop shadow if you don't like it ... I like drop shadows

If you want one, please PM me! I don't always get to read every post in here... I will do as many as I can do

Just let me know this info via PM:

Name you want on it:________

Color for outlines on name and Mickey Head (or no outlines):___________

Drop Shadow yes or no?:_________

6"X6" or 3"x3" size?:_____________

I got the Chili color. We're big IU fans, (red & white/cream & crimson) so we're kinda dorky, everything we get seems to be red I really like it alot, it's small enough & yet big enough, and there's tons of little compartments & pockets. My kids are a little older, so all I really need to carry is a few snacks for my DD, the little snack queen, and various little odds & ends. I love that it has a holder specifically for a bottle of water, and I can wear it cross body and keep it in front of me. We'd already discussed ahead of time, that DH is going to carry all the credit cards. We'll just add in there anything with a magnetic strip AP....should have figured that one out! I spent 5 years in the military, so I'm usually good at figuring out acronyms, but that one threw me for a loop! Wish we went often enough to get AP's!
