Lists? Supplies?

[recmouse]

So as the mom, I'm the planner... my daughter, doing the CP - she's the dreamer. I love Disney and like to dream too but I'm kind of hoping for some help here on what to bring.

I'm sure it's on her dashboard, etc but she's been having trouble with that and she's been working since she's finished school to have some extra $$ for Disney.

We are flying down but I was thinking since I'm staying at a Disney resort I can ship some stuff there if I need to.

So - can she bring her same sheets she used in her dorm at college? Is there a coffee maker? Should she bring a modem? Router?

Any CP'ers out there that remember those 1 or 2 things they wish they had with them when they first got there? I just don't want to go crazy buying things at Walmart that I could have brought with us.

Anyone?

Thanks!

Yes her college dorm bedding is fine. From what my daughter has learned..there is not a coffee maker or toaster. There are basic kitchen essentials in the kitchen. Your daughter will need towels and the normal toiletries she uses. If you pm me I can email you all the stuff she will have down there. We leave on Friday. She checks in on
Monday the 9th.

I would love the list! I am doing the fall advantage and already have a list but would love to compare!

Actually, dorms are usually twin extra long. The CP beds are regular twins.

Somewhere on this board, there's a good list. Gonna search for it

And here's a thread about shoes. DD wears a size 10 and I did not want to drive all over Orlando on a shoe search. So I bought one pair of each "likely" shoes: white sneaks, black sneaks and hiking boots. Turned out she needed black dress flats! And she actually did not find this out until about 3 days after her check-in, when I was long gone.

Though I will say that when I finally saw a pic of her in costume (WEIRD as it is... DAK merchandise) she was wearing the black sneaks.

Tomorrow's her moving day... she's extending. Now she will be a character attendant!!
