:( I had to send my phone in to see if they can fix a couple of buttons - I hope they can so I can get it back in time for my trip and time to program everyone number in.

OMG, I could never just send my phone in. I would need a loaner. I would be jonesing if I didn't have a phone in my pocket that didn't ring a hundred times a day. . .
 
Oh, and 7 more "sleeps" for me. I can only imagine how much more excited I am going to get as the days roll by.

A quick note...

Friday the 15th, Monorail Crawl night...that night is also EMH at Epcot from 9pm-Midnight. Just sharing info in case it doesn't take 3-4 hours to hit the bars along the Monorail. But by the sounds of this crew, that could last until Sunday. :rotfl:

That's probably a good thing cause I think the plan is to head to JRs after the monorail crawl and taking the monorail to Epcot and then a quick walk through Epcot to JRs would be awesome since that is our preferred mode of transport that evening.
 

:lmao:

A couple of years ago I was on a solo trip to WDW, and my sister was in Orlando at the time for work, so she suggested that we stay together at WDW to save on costs and spend some time together. She added that she would be renting a car with GPS. So one night, we're driving off-site for a show in downtown Orlando and the GPS works just fine and we get there, no problem. After the show, we're set to return to WDW and she says to me "what's the address again of where we're staying?" After I stopped laughing, I blurted out "Jenn! You do realize we're going to the best marked destination in the US, right??.. I think we'll be ok." :lmao:

Safe travels!

LOL! Yea, as for arrivals, I think the signs for WDW start within the first mile after you cross the state line to Florida. :laughing:

Yup. That's actually what I was thinking, but I didn't want to assume to make any plans for others, especially since I don't drink, and will thus be more of an observer to the nights activities (with camera of course). ;)
 
I do think we're going to stop once we're in FL and hit a beach in the morning. Another girl friend coming along has never been to a beach before. So, I figure some nice, white sand beaches and clear water would be a good visit for her.

A good idea. I made that drive (and then some) a few years back when I moved here from Nevada. There should be some nice spots near Pensacola that won't be too far from I-10.

P.S. Next time I'll use multi-quote, but sometimes it's tough trying to keep up with you folks. :eek:

Now to decide if I want to go to Disney today. <sigh> It's almost 10am already, and is supposed to get up around 90 degrees. Hmm...decisions decisions...

Hey, drinking "virgin" style counts. . .ya know.

I agree, the beaches along the panhandle are much prettier than the beaches on the atlantic side (north end of FL that is). My aunt visited many years ago from Texas and found the beaches along St. Augustine to be so pretty and the water so clear :scared1:. Of course we think the same water is cloudy and dirty :rotfl:. I thought, you should see Panama City Beach! Of course this was in the 80's and 90's so I have no idea what PCB looks like now.

Oh, and since I am already starting to receive texting and calls from "the world" I assume the "party" has begun.

Beaches in Texas aren't as nice! lol I have another person, loaning the GPS, that wants me to drive over to Daytona and up to head back home. However, I don't think that the girls will be up for that much longer of a drive.

That is true... the bars close at Midnight also, and if you are not in Epcot before it closes you are SOL.

The phonecall I got last night was totally unexpected but so funny!

And Darcy come on...you know the party doesn't begin until you get there...this is the pre-party. ;)

Daytona is nice... Ormond Beach (a bit further up) is nice too.... and the beaches on the gulf coast are different to me than the East coast ones. And to stop at Panama City, Destin, Ft. Walton are good places to stop along the panhandle.

Destin is quite nice...and further down to SanDestin as well. I kinda miss that place.
 
I wonder if Kadani Village allows pool hopping? Looks like a nice slide there!

We'll be in the Ft Walton/Destin area by morning on the 16th, so I'm aiming for us to stop there and hang at the beach a bit. Be a good place to stretch legs for me (driving all night) and them (just waking up).

While I'm up for driving over to Daytona, etc, I'm just not sure they will be. I love road trips, mostly because you can adjust however you need to in order to see whatever you would like to stop and view. But, that's me. Now, if I'm on a time crunch, just get in and shut up and I'll get us there. :laughing:

Not according to this from the DVC:

According to DVC Sales Director Mike Brunson, the new pool complex will be open to all guests staying at either Kidani Village or Jambo House at Disney's Animal Kindom Lodge and Villas.

This should put to rest speculation that use of the new pool may be limited to guests registered at Kidani Village only.

As for pool hopping to the Kidani Village pool, that will not be an option.

One of the perks of Disney Vacation Club ownership is the ability to "pool hop" to other Walt Disney World resort pools when using DVC points to stay at a Vacation Club resort. Two resorts' pools are currently excluded from the pool hopping rules: Stormalong Bay at Disney's Yacht and Beach Club and Uzima pool at AKL. Samawati Springs and Uwanja Camp will be added to the list of pools to which DVC members cannot pool hop.
