I'm sure I am packing way too many clothes, but I want to be prepared for anything! And I want to be sure I am overprepared for cold weather, that way we will hopefully not have any! If I have to wear the same couple pairs of shorts the whole trip I'm good with that! My mini pharmacy is also packed, along with an assortment of shoes & snacks. I can see the eye rolling already when we go to load the van But hey better to have it & not need it, than need it & not have it right?

we're still 26 days 'til departure. Can't wait until I can look at the weather.com 10 day forecast for Lake Buena Vista!! I'll make my packing decisions then, but we go every february and I always end up wearing capris and t-shirts with a sweatshirt for mornings and nights. Husband and kids usually do shorts & tees with sweatshirts. I carry a smallish bag/backpack for the sweatshirts so we are able to hop and not worry about locker or going back to the resort.

This time next week I will be walking around MK!!!!! I'm so excited!!
Packed the kids bag yesterday, but it was a little tight. Walking around wal mart last night and I found a large tote bag w/ 2 smaller bags on clearance for $15!! Time to repack the kids bag now.
Oh and we're telling the kids today

I need lots of pixie dust today. At 4 am, I woke up to water gushing out of my kitchen sinks. I have a plumber here, and I'm hoping it's nothing major. We leave in 4 days. I'm so worried....

Fingers crossed!

This has got to be the longest month in history. That's all.

For PP+ - does it come with a CD of stock photos?

I just pre-ordered it. I feel like when it was first announced and I looked at it that it came with that separate $40 CD of photos from the parks, but I'm not seeing that on the description now?

Anyone get it recently and can confirm or deny?

Oh, and 26 days

When i got mine in the post it came with a voucher to exchange at the park for a PP+ Card, Number for when you need to order your photopass cd and a cd with disney park photos on. Hope that helps.

Yes. the FP+ comes with a CD of stock photos.

I haven't opened my CD package yet. Once you open it you can't get your money back. I'll open it once the family arrives in WDW. Yes, I'm that paranoid.

Same here. Between potential weather delays and my brother now being in the hospital with a broken back, I'm nervous and just wish this month would be over so I can start my 8 day countdown and get out before its too late. LOL

Told the kids we're going to see Nana and PopPop (who are in FL right now) and they were very excited. DS asked a little later "Do you think we could go to Orlando while we're there? I asked him why and he said "Well maybe we could go see Disney World for like a day" I can't wait for the 2nd 1/2 of their surprise when we pull up to Disney world and stay for 4 days!!!

 

[ninjagirl]

Does anyone need at 8:10 am ADR for Chef Mickey's on 2/16? The more I think about it the more I realize we just aren't going to make it. We're driving and checking in that day. We really won't have time to go get our TiW cards and make it to an early reservation. If interested, send me a pm and we can coordinate a cancel time.

Maybe a dumb question, but are you actually taking your CD package with you? My Photopass + voucher to get the card was taped on the outside and I can't think of any reason I would need the CD package with me in the parks (other than to remind myself what locations will allow me to get the print package without paying for them).

I've been known to take other unnecessary things with me on trips though, but was just wondering what I might be missing.

 

[apentney]

Now that we are 4days from leaving I believe I am prepared. I have all ADRs made, pp+ voucher packed, food packed, suitcases packed, and house being cleaned today. Only thing to do is load the car but won't do that until Wednesday.

Thanks to all of you DIS's for posting valuable information such as the PP+, talking about certain restaurants and even BBB. If it wasn't for this forum I don't think I would have known about those things. So thank you and I hope all of you have a safe and magical trip!!!!
