November Check In 2010

So, I switched back to the nametag type countdown today. I had taken it off because it was in days and it was the hundred area and depressing. Now, it's 40 days!!!! I was shocked...didn't realize it was so close! Time flies.

We booked Minnie's at the plaza for 9am the 22nd. I get to call and book the holiday tour in just a few days! And now we're considering a WOC picnic. Dh puts in for his leave next week, and then we can buy our tickets!!! YAY! :santa:

Just made ressies for ARiels Grotto for WOC!!! They had lots of openings - do you think this means it wont be too crowded? do I really need WOC ressies?? Is Ariels worth it?????
 
Has it been announced when the Christmas Day Parade is being filmed at DLR?? i cant seem to find it???

I will be calling DLR this week to book our Footsteps of Walt Tour... i finish work in 4 weeks yesterday - i keep reading everyone's work is hectic must be the theme as mine is crazy hectic we have had a number of people leave and not been replaced and not likely to be before i go on holidays OH WELL

Sorry for the long rant

CANT WAIT TO HIT DLR!!! :)
I've been keeping a look out for the taping days too. I've written notes down but I've got mixed info. :confused3 One date I have is November 6th and 7th but then I also wrote down the weekend after Veteran's Day, which could be the 12, 13, and 14. As you can see I am not much help with my conflicting dates BUT I do suppose it's possible it might be one of those or some other! :laughing: Somebody help me and Aussie Princess out here! Has anyone heard the OFFICIAL date for taping?

Bet you will enjoy your tour! Hope you get a short wait on the phone lines when you call.

So, I switched back to the nametag type countdown today. I had taken it off because it was in days and it was the hundred area and depressing. Now, it's 40 days!!!! I was shocked...didn't realize it was so close! Time flies.

One of the bad things about changing tickers.... you have to start all over again and them it doesn't look like you've made much progress. I guess in your case it was a good thing you got a new one so you would know just how close your trip was. :thumbsup2
Minnie's and the tour will both be fun! Good luck deciding on the WOC picnic. Yay for putting in for vacation and buying tickets!

25 more sleeps !!!!

:dance3:
You're even closer today! It's fun to know that folks on our list are going to be hitting the park in no time! Us included!!!!

11/28-12/5 ------goldies 5 ----------------GCH **************** DS birthday celebration
Got you updated on the main page list too. Yay for upgrades!

Only one month till we get there :cool1: Woot!
Yay, me too!!!! :yay:
We arrive on the same day! Now we have less than a month!

Just made ressies for ARiels Grotto for WOC!!! They had lots of openings - do you think this means it wont be too crowded? do I really need WOC ressies?? Is Ariels worth it?????
Never hurts to hope!!! It's hard to say for sure whether they will be crowded but I am pretty sure that they are still filling up pretty much every night since the show is so new. We've not done the WOC package but have ate at AG for the character dining. We have always enjoyed it. Of course, I am the sort that enjoys pretty much anything as long as I am at Disneyland! Anyway, the food is a little different from the standard homestyle cooking we get around here but we like it. Last time we were there I tried the Spinach and Ricotta Agnolotti and found it to be surprisingly good. I may have to go with it again when we visit the princesses on our trip. It is the only place my DD specially requested because she wants to see the princesses.... but mostly I think she wants to go back to see if they have the little seahorse white chocolate desserts.



Time to head out on the porch with my DS for a round of coffee and a bit of reading up more about Disneyland! Only 29 days to go!!!
 
Just thought I would bump us back up and see if there where any new trip planners out there.


As for the rest of you...... Where is everybody? Busy making plans? Getting things together for the big trip?


We finished watching the 3rd Pirates movie last night. Too bad the 4th one isn't out yet. Although, I am sure going to miss Orlando Bloom! Now the only other Disney movie on our agenda before the trip is Haunted Mansion, although I am pretty sure we can come up with some others.

Gotta do a little trip shopping. Seems my DD just can't stop growing UP. It would be so nice if clothes had a universal size! Thought I had ordered her plenty of pants but so glad we tried them on before I packed them. Some are too short and some too big in the waist. Men on the hand, are so much easier to shop for! Just buy he same thing every time and it is good enough. Just gotta stock up on a few more tees and they will be good to go!

I'm trying to pull myself together before our trip. Heading to the chiropractor tomorrow and then the dentist Thursday. My poor old body should know by now that now is NOT the time to be falling apart! All I know is I will be heading to the park in 28 days even if I have to be on muscle relaxers and pain meds. Not rain, nor hail, nor ache or pain will stop me! :laughing:
 
Hey Mariezp, thanks for keeping this thread going :goodvibes

We're getting more and more excited, picked up a 2nd hand Disney animated movie Trivial Pursuit game. Going to be playing that lots over the next 24 days!! Yep, 24 days until we leave :banana:
 
35 days till my 8th anniversary trip with the BF. So excited, we are going to eat at Ariels Grotto for our special dinner. We are going to be there the 16th-20th and are staying at the Anaheim Plaza hotel. We are leaving at 6am on the 16th so we get down south super early to have a full day at DL. I am so bummed that Jungle Cruise will be closed till the 18th but thankfully the park is open regular hours that day.
 
I've switched my hotel. I was able to get in at Stovall's Best Western with the conference rates. The Hojo's entertainment rate is still better, but it will be nice to have my hotel room just one block instead of one mile from the conference center. That means I'll be able to run my conference stuff back to my hotel before making my way into the park. I had been thinking I'd have to bring a backpack with a day's supplies and to carry all my conference stuff to the parks with me in the evening so I wouldn't waste time with making the mile trek up Harbor to drop notebooks, notes, etc. at Hojo's.

The other bit of news is that my DH and DDs may be joining me for the weekend. I don't think a day has gone by since we got back from our trip last month that our 4 year old hasn't asked "When are we going back to Disneyland?" We'll be going for a daytrip in December with extended family, but it would be nice if the rest of the family could get a little more use out of our APs before they expire at the beginning of December.
 
47 days left for me. First time DD (will be 3 just before we go) has really started talking about the airplane and going to Disneyland.:love:

DS6 is very excited to ride Indiana Jones for the first time!:cool1:
 
I just made reservation at DI&S, so I will be there Nov 5 & 6. It will be just me, myself and I - no children, no adults, no one else to worry about for a whole day and a half. Maybe I will finially get to see everything in both parks.

Hi neighbor :wave2: *we're in the N Ogden area

Yay for a 1st timer :woohoo: and being tall enough for Indy ~ DD was *finally* this past July *her 7th B-day trip ~ she's pretty short*
 
eeek! We're getting so close! I just made reservations for a Character breakfast at Plaza Inn, and lunch at Blue Bayou. Now I just need to figure out what we're going to do with WOC. I'm thinking picnic meals, but not sure. I have a LOT of reading up to do on that and feel a little overwhelmed. The past few months have flown by and I haven't been to the boards in weeks! Also going to order our annual passes soon which I am SO excited about.
 
We just booked out A walk in walt's footsteps tour for our first day at the parks on the 11th Nov - was going to do this on the sunday but they dont do them on the sunday so our sunday was now opened up so we can choose between saturday and sunday for MM.

Only 1 more thing to book and thats it!!!
 
Down to the last month!
Airline tickets- check
Hojo's ressies- check
annual pass for me PH for DD- check
AG WOC resrvations - check
