I'm not packing yet but I am "gathering". I pick up little items all year long (we go to Disney every year) and keep them in my "Disney box". Since we are staying at Pop this year, I am concerned about storage space and I am looking for an over the door organizer thingy.

We are going from the cabins at Fort Wilderness to All Star Sports resort(2 connecting rooms). what is it like at the sports resort???

You know, it's funny you mention this! I was just telling DH that we needed to get one for our trip since we only have one sink. He couldn't imagine why we would need this when we can just keep all of our stuff in a suitcase. I tried to explain to him that we can put out contact solution, shaving cream, my face soap, toner & moisturizer, meds, sunscreen and all kinds of stuff in there.

He'll thank me when we get there and he realizes that it's much more convenient than digging through a suitcase all the time. He doesn't have to use it if he doesn't want to, but at least all my crap will be organized!

It's amazing how many bottles of stuff you bring along on a trip....shampoo, spritz, hair gel, hair spray, makeup, sunscreen, lotion, tootpaste, etc. etc. Come to think of it, if I have all of that stuff, why don't I look better maintained than I do?

 

[DebºoºS]

We'll be there 8/8-8/14th SSR

Not packing yet but this weekend I'll bring down the Disney suitcase that I use to store stuff I only use on WDW trips. Mister bottles, lanyards, ponchos to see if there's anything that needs replacing. I just love planning for WDW trips

 

[starnightstarsky2000]

LOL it's funny you should mention these I LOVE the one I got from Mary Kay we actually just use it everyday in our home (keeps our counters clean and that way we know where everything is) so for trips it take a moment to roll it up (it has velcro for each space so it is easy to pull off one of the 4 bags to take into the shower with you) and it has velcro at the top to hold it close plus it has a universal metal clip so you can hang it anywhere. If you have a Mary Kay girl I would ask her about it.

PS Yes we have already started Packing as well...
