Hi all,

Nothing left but the waiting and packing! We'll be in the World June25th-July2nd, staying at the ASMu suite, anyone else?

I'm eagerly awaiting my mail packet, I've finalized my itinerary (ADR's and all) Now just some shopping and packing!

It's been a looong time since our last trip, and I'm hoping to make the most of it, anyone have the "must do", "must have's" suggestions? Somethings I've picked up on the boards here are: popcorn bucket, pick-a-pearl, pirate adventure, etc.
I'm also looking to find a very nice watch as a momento for myself and was wondering if anyone has a specific store in any of the parks they can recall? It's my gift to me and would like to get something unique.

Thanks a million!

Hmmm must do's.... the lady in Japan who makes candy is supposed to be really cool ! Dole Whip's in MK are delicious, and if you're having dinner at OHana, their bread pudding is a must do for me

Someone here on the DIS has some great tips for each park, here are the links

I have had the best luck with watches at World Of Disney at DTD. I have 2 different ones I have gotten from there and they were quite unique to me. I just love watches in general, though. The ones at WOD are reasonably priced, to very expensive. I love the one I get last year the most, it has a lighjt blue face, sorta pearly, with a diamond Mickey head as the 12 and the band is silver with Mickey heads all the way around the band.

I went to the Pick a Pearl stand at DTD near the water close to the Pin store and got a beautiful ring and earrings for $100. I didn't do the picking part because I couldn't find a setting I liked, so I picked a ready piece and matched some simple earrings to it.

One thing we like to do is go to 2 of the 3 off-site Disney outlets to see what inexpensive souveniers we can get before we go to the parks. This time, we will got to all 3. We got some amazing deals in Dec. Somne of the items are thinks no longer sold in the parks, and some things they do still sell in the park, but are priced less.

We have a few last minute things to pick up, but that is stuff for our pets, to have when our friends come in to feed and check on them and for my bunnies who have to be boarded.

I think I am going to pack next weekend since I have a 4 day weekend and alot of things to do the day before we leave.

I really can't believe how fast the time is passing! Last time the countdown took forever. This one is just flying by.

kellzkidz- The World of Disney in DTD has pretty much EVERYTHING! I usually get a sweatshirt or 2 for myself to remind me of my fave place during these IL winters. A bag is another good iea. I like to buy things I use often to remind me of WDW.
I have been trying to cut back on spending...eating out, extra stuff at the store...rather spend it in FL! Not many days left!

 

[of the seas]

21 more days!!!

Thanks to the fab room discounts they offered, we are going up 2 days earlier and staying at the Contemporary CL!!! Can't wait!

 

[disneydreamer1970]

Getting closer and closer!

I think reading about shopping is almost as fun as actually shopping!
Thanks to all the geat ideas on shopping locations, I agree on spending in Fla. - I've been penny pinching all winter! I like to buy one or two really nice things that I will use everyday to remind me of my trip. I'm betting my youngest will want evrything he see's however!

I'm not able to get off site this trip-we're doing 7 days on property and using the ME and bus system. I'm hoping that maybe the world shops may have good bargains as well (one can wish right?)!

Almost at 30 day mark! I wish I could pack now!

[Sleeping*Beauty]

29 Days until I spend all day at the Magic Kingdom!!

Quick Question: Say we don't get back to Pop from MK till about 3:00am, Will bell services bring our bags to the room then? Or can we call from the park and have them sent once we find out our room #?
