Official December 2008

[Lcaemom]

Today was pay day...45 days out and time to pay the balance. I called up, gave the debit card number...and let out of a sigh of relief...Until I checked my email. I asked, when I paid the balance, that a confirmation email be sent out. When I checked the email, I still had a balance...the total balance plus the $200 deposit stating that it was all due 10/23/08...now I'm a nervous wreck!!! What if my balance didn't credited? I know that my ressie already showed the credit for the $200 deposit and that didn't appear in this email, either. I'm sure everything is fine. But, I'd feel better if this has happened to anyone else. Anyone???

All is fine...I got another confirmation email this AM. We're paid in full...balance is $0!!! I am soooooo excited!!! 44 days away!!!

Just booked POFQ for Dec 16-20 . I'm surpising my mom with POFQ. She thinks we are staying at POP. I'm so excited! My sister and BIL will be on there honeymoon (wedding is 12/13) so I convinced my mom that we deserved our own trip for putting up with sis for the two years of planning.

I'm thinking of planning a last minute trip 12/13-12/20. Will I be able to get any ADR's for breakfasts or dinners? (We can't eat at 9pm, though, 3 kids ages 11,8,4 won't last that late). Anyone else planning this late?

You might be able to get some of the less popular places, but most of us booked ADR's in June. I had to change mine after my mom passed away and the CM had to go to a manager to be able to keep my times, since I have an Autistic child in my party that has to eat on a schedule.

Very few are planning this late in the game. Speaking for myself, I booked this trip in Aug 2007.

I wonder if you can call for ADRs first to see whats still avail? I've heard that there are always cancellations up to the day so you can always call the night before to see whats available early. I have disney OCD (atleast I can admit it) so a "last minute trip" would put me over the egde You can always try "winging it" (I'm not familiar with the term but I hear some people do it. Good luck and have a good trip

I have done the winging thing and it can be fun, but I only do it when we are going on a short 3 to 4 day trip. You can't get most of the good TS then, not even the morning of, most of the time. I have been trying to get in to 1900 Park Fare breakfast since my June trip and I finally got it for December and I am NOT letting go of it for anything.

My cousin thought she was going to have to cancel her trip, which affects my trip and our ADR's and I was going to beat her, but luckily she won't have to and she can live

I just tried calling about ADR's and there were a couple of things times available, I wouldn't be able to get the good ones. Probably not worth it, I should just be patient and wait until next fall, but once I start planning, I want to go now!!! Of course with the economy I might be living in a cardboard box under the highway next fall, so its hard to plan for anything. Oh if only life was predictable!!

 

[Baltazar]

Disney is predictable, life is not.

915 hours to go

 

[PoohlvrLynn]

I paid in full today, it feels so so good. Now it feels more real that we'll be there soon 46 more days to go. I am so excited!!
