We got to sit in VIP seating at the night time parade at MK....we just asked a CM where would be a good spot for Caleb to be able to see the parade! People start lining up VERY early!!

All of the kids in your party will get a shirt....they say Panama Jack on the front and GKTW on the back!
You can order the regular GKTW shirts while you are there....you order online in the House off Hearts and they will deliver the next day to your villa!

THAT explains it!!! Heather and I have tried to figure out why one of the Wish families wore Panama Jack shirts so often on their trip!!! We were like, huh? they must REALLY like Panama Jack!
How silly of them not to put GKTW on the FRONT Though! Do those only come in a big size? Becasue the one we saw the kids were just SWIMMING in the shirt!

We have times for our flights and they are fabulous
The princess lunch is out because they were all booked up. Anyone have any hints on how to get my daughter a meet and preferably a lunch with Snow White????? She really really wants this.
Also has anyone taken traveler's checks? I am a fan of just carrying cash but this was recommended. I have never used them and am not sure how it works.

Thank you Jessica for your phone call to the coordinator. She said she never recieved my call and was just calling to confirm your email. Everything happens for a reason and I need to learn a bit more patience. LOL

That is wonderful! I would call disney reservations yourself everyday and kindly explain the situation (wish trip). People cancel often and I have heard good stories about wish trippers getting to eat places. If that doesn't work I would check first thing again upon entering the park.

Glad you got your flight times! AND that you like them! Bonus!
I have also heard of people just showing up and getting a character meal by showing them your button! So you can always try that!!

I just saw on Facebook that Amy, Goofydoo posted that Lance (her husband, I think) died. Does anyone know what happened? I was stunned to see it.

Wow! I am so glad that I could be of help without even knowing! Although I did assume when I heard back that you would too! Kind of like they were going through everything!

I am sending pixie dust for the meal!

Oh I LOVED her trip report!!
PLease let us know if you hear anything else!!

Thanks for the advice. If we don't get to eat with the princesses I am quite sure my dd will be happy to just meet Snow White. I know she is 7 almost 8 but she still thinks the characters are real and has no idea this is all acting. I will definitely try to get her the lunch also but am not saying anything to her just incase it doesn't happen.

Thoughts and prayers to Amy and her family! Please keep us posted.



I have been debating on sharing this but after reading TR's have decided it is o.k.
My dd has been chosen for the Big Give. Thank you to everyone who does this I never expected this to happen and was very surprised when contacted. I am very grateful for all of you who make a wish child's trip even more special. I can't wait to see her face when she recieves something in the mail. Pics to follow.

Any news on Goofydoo and her family? I started to read her TR (thanks maroo). I don't know or have even talked with this family but this is just horrible. I have put her on our prayer chain at church and will update the chain as I know more info. Anything else I could do please let me know.

Hello...yes, I am here...been missing for a while, but here today, and heartbroken at this news. Theirs was such a wonderful story, such a magical trip and such terrific family memories made.

Does anyone know what happened? Which facebook page? It's late, and I"m a little shell-shocked, so still thinking what we could possibly do...prayer, of course, for healing, but my, how terrible for them all...

What items do I need to take pictures of ie: photopass card, place we are staying's address, kids each morning so we know what they are wearing. I know there is more I just can't seem to remember them all. I wrote them down some where and guess what I can't find them now.

Please help if you have any hints.

Thanks,

Diane
