July 2012 Who's Going Thread

[cfrith5]

We start our trip west in 9 days! So excited!

I'm happy for you single digit folks, but a bit jealous, too. I hope the remaining days go by quickly!

Woohoo!! It finally feels real...We received our Costco DLR package today. and I ordered the Photopass plus as well! For those that would like to know what is in the package it includes:
*parkhopper tix (credit card style w/Cars characters
*vouchers for Preferred character dining! (AG or Goofy's)
*a $20 gift card (which I applied to the price of the Photopass Plus)
* a pamphlet that holds vouchers for Mickey's Toontown Madness, Preferred seating at DCA (Aladdin, Turtle Talk, Muppets 3D), and a voucher to be exchanged for a lanyard and collectible pin
* voucher to be redeemed for hotel
*luggage tags featuring Cars characters
*photopass card that can be registered online for photos to be added in parks

I usually plan to pay for hotel and tickets separately, but I do like the ease of mind knowing that everything is pre-paid.
Now, all that I am waiting for is my trading pins from ebay and the personalized autograph books we ordered for DD5 (also on ebay). I am itching to start packing my luggage!!

Help! I can't find my second camera battery and my second memory card! Anyone else running around in a panic looking for important items? Thank goodness for Amazon Prime- just in case!

Currently sitting waiting for World of Color, Carthay Circle preferred viewing, an awesome spot! DLR has been great - a mini report later in the week.

 

[PinkBudgie]

Please do report back. I'd love to hear the details of the CCR viewing spot for WOC.

I agree...I'm looking forward to hearing about your CCR viewing experience. We'll be trying it out in eleven days!

We did the picnic packs on that day...second showing. It actually was a pretty good view... Our time to check in was between 9:45 and 10:10 so we barely had to wait at all for the show. Even our 7 year old had a clear view of the show.

I'll be visiting TDR with the fam on July 15 and 16. We're staying at the Anaheim Plaza.

During the later hours of one of those days, if you spot a guy with a light-up Iron Man arc reactor t-shirt, that's probably me!

Have a fun trip, everyone!

I'm also going to try out the CCR WoC viewing area; will tell everyone what I think of the view once I get back.

Just left a gas station in Lost Hills, CA, 108 degrees! So happy that we'll be at DL in about 3 hours!

Wow, was it difficult to find a Little Mermaid dress that did not have the tight area in the "fin" section of the dress!! Now..if I could just get my ticker to move a little faster!!!

Single digits for us now too!! I keep having little flashes in my mind of things from the park.... the coolness of the bayou in POTC... the sweeping view of London on Peter Pan... riding through the jungle on the Jungle Cruise... and for those moments I feel like I'm already there and I get butterflies in my stomach, a huge grin on my face and an irrepressible urge to giggle!

SO EXCITED!

Since you will be there close to our dates, wanted you to know that when I printed the calendar of events it listed Jungle Cruise as being closed refurbishment Not sure if it was accurate but just FYI.

 

[martinolichfamily]
