OMG!!!! Maybe it will drop for us on Monday after all!

Of course I have am important work meeting at 10:30am (PST) that is at least a 3-hour drive away! So I'm really hoping if it does happen, it happens at 1am sharp (PST) so I can grab it and get a couple hours of sleep before having to drive that far!

This summer I was waiting with my 2 kids for the parade to start at MK. We were at the start of the parade route. We were right up front and the kids were sitting on the ground in front of me. A lady came up right at the start of the parade pushed her way to the front and stood over my daughter and next to me. She kept trying to move closer and stepped on my daughter at one point. She was taping the parade I a big Ipad so I was watching the parade through her Ipad. I was pissed. I am to nice and didn't say anything. I should have though. I did say excuse me when she stepped on my daughter.

Same kind of thing for us at our MNSSHP. We found a spot and sat down for an hour to keep it. As soon as the lights went out for the show a family of 6 or 7 people came and stood in front of us. There was so little room there, that it physically pushed us backward (we were standing at that point). I sighed and rolled my eyes and the grandfather of the group said loudly that "They better move because this lady is having a hissy fit". I really wasn't. I sighed, and rolled my eyes as a 6 ft tall man stood in front of me completely blocking my view and pulled his whole family in front of us. The grandpa moved, the rest of the family stayed. It put a real damper on the night. It wasn't worth a confrontation and I just vowed we wouldn't bother with fireworks anymore. Nobody wants a confrontation at Disney of all places.

Congrats!!! I'm sure they will like it I just found out the day before yesterday that my master's degree graduate portfolio passed the committee, so now I just have to finish these two classes and I'm done in May!

The writing advisor was pretty excited about the topic during a writing workshop.
Yay!!! I have two final papers and this thesis before I'm able to graduate. I'm done with classes though. What is your portfolio about and your 'major'?

Okay, here's another question for all my besties....who pin trades?

I do I'm shy around other people but CMs are fine if I remember to look at their pins lol. I prefer the crew pin trading event on Disney cruise ships.

I knew it looked familiar, haha! Ok, ok, I'll say it! FREE DINING IS ON MONDAY! (please don't burn me at the stake if it's not )
Lol. We'll keep it in context.

I'll say it too!!! Meh.. nobody can find me if I'm wrong.

I'm loving this hunch.

No way to know. I think it's been different times each year. Last year was 4'ish. Only way to know is to sit up and wait. The link on the Air Canada Vacations site doesn't go anywhere. So who knows if it's Monday or not. I don't remember seeing it earlier today, so I guess we will wait and see.

Okay black, Steve, Pete or Anyone any rumors??? The anticipation is killing us.

 

[MichVick]

If it is dropped Monday - how early can we call to add it to a current reservation?

I'm pretty sure it is an old link with last years info...

The only reason I'm having any thought at all about Monday comes from the U.K. Offer dropping and that the US offer usually drops four days later. That's it. Still who knows.

Hmm. I'm not seeing that. Just the free dining link that doesn't go anywhere. I think if anything was coming we'd get some more confirmation in here though.

Descriptions of dining plan inclusions seem old in that only one snack is listed per day.

The link automatically has 8/4/2017 entered when you click check availability. Interesting.....

I'm probably not getting free dining because we are going on 8/5/2017, but this is so dang fun every year!

Well then the 8/4 date would be a good sign for you.

 

[pigletto]

8/4 would be a previously unheard of start date though.

 

[msdaisy]

I know - a girl can dream! But I also know that's probably wayyyy to early of a start date.

 

[DisneyLifePapioNe]

The earliest it would be able to drop is when all of our US time zones are on the drop date.

It's supposed to be saying April 8 (4/8) not 8/4...in Europe they write dates this way, I guess in Canada they do too. 4/8 is tomorrow, so I guess it's the earliest you can book.

You're right. Good point.
