March 2008

[candizfan]

I also leave in three weeks.

I had a really bad week at work and can't believe how much is being piled on the few left in our department. The only thing that kept me sane was dreaming of the mouse....

 

[Grumpymom73]

We will be there March 30 - April 2
Can't wait! We live close by and just booked it as a last minute kind of thing.

I just finished Interview Week (12 interviews in 4 days). At least now I'm on Reading Week. Sooo looking forward to my grad and b-day present to myself ... another 43 days to WDW!

Our anniversary is 3/28 so I guess you could say this would be a second honeymoon with just a few more people this time.

Hey that's my ds's birthday he shares it with my mom too!

Who has started packing?

Who has started packing?

 

[stagemomx3]

Does that mean you have or you haven't started packing?

 

[momsgoofy]

Does that mean you have or you haven't started packing?

I haven't...I have started making the lists for packing, but that is about it. I tend to be a night before we leave packer. I have all of our travel items done...they stay that way year round, but will just need to get the luggage out of the garage and pack it all up the night before.

Does it count that I've put three things out on the window seat so I won't forget them?? 14 days to go

 

[candizfan]

Not packing yet, but starting to plan when we will start. If we start too early, we bring too much stuff. I hate a lot of luggage.

 

[OKW Mom]

Who has started packing?

I have our carry-on packed with our swimsuits and the things we'll need in the first 12 hours. (It's been in the 30's here and I can't wait to swim).

I love the OKW washer/dryers. For a week we pack 3 outfits + a dress up. With the airlines iffy about luggage weight charges, we like to be under weight.

We made up our daily pillboxes and have sorted the dry foods we are taking. Made inquiries to the grocer website and found their prices not too bad.

Two TS meals planned - Le Cellier and the new Teppen Edo.

I am having a 60's era pushback to the DDP with their 2008 program. After the $2000. grand spent on food in 07' I'll get the DDE and take the meals as we can wedge them in.

We are bringing a 19 year old FIRST TIMER and we did not want to be tied into seating times. She has plans to be the first one into Ariel's Grotto!

DOES anyone want to join a Photopass group for March?

I was denied the discounted price of $99. I got this response to my inquiry:
"Thank you for your interest in Disney's Photopass service. The special offer was made available to a limited number of Walt Disney World Resort Guests. Unfortunately the offer is not transferable to additional guests.
Regards, "
CM for Imaging Guest Support

Happy packing!

I packed almost everything for myself last night! Tomorrow I will work on my kids! It was kind of exciting getting the suitcases out of storage even though my DH thinks I am nuts. He leaves the same day we do for a 2 week trip to Peru and he hasn't thought a stitch about packing!

I don't have anything packed yet, but I do have most of the kids clothes organized.

 

[dvc95]

I'm starting tomorrow the suitcases are out I normally would wait until the weekend before we leave but since I've been sick I don't want to wait until the last minute I want to take my time and rest along the way.

 

[Disneyof3]

Last Sunday (10th) I packed all our suitcases. The kids love when we start packing, that means the trip is coming soon. Carry-ons are 1/2 packed and last minute items like underware socks and bras can't be packed until the last weekend before we go. If I was told we have to leave now, I could do it in a heart beat. Come on March.

Happy packing!

I haven't started packing, I know I will just be going stir crazy if all my bags are packed,and I have to look at them every day..........the excitement will just be overwhelming
Also, it's DS 12th birthday on the 5th, so the party is on the second, and I can't have luggage and clothes around everywhere for the company.....may be forced to hide it all in the closet

Anyway, I would be interested in a photopass swap......tell me how it would work exactly.
I am a DVC member, I can look into if I get some kind of discount.

 

[OKW Mom]

We are waiting to hear if the terms are acceptable with the 3rd party.

If we get 1 or 2 more we can get the price down to $20 + postage.

We do not do this to make money, just save it.

PM me if you are interested!

 

[jenseib]

I pm'd you OKW mom!

We just booked today! We are going March 2-7th. So haven't done anything yet to get ready. I'll probably pull out the suticases over the week or weekend! I can't beleive we are doing this last minute trip!

 

[candizfan]

[OKW Mom]
