*****Official (??) June 2014 Thread -- Party Like It's Hot!*****

Love seeing everyone's ADRs! But not sure if everyone knew that you can add your ADRs to the document RainyDayPlay put together. Just click on the link and type your ADRs on the correct day. You don't even have to hit <save>; just type and then close the document. Cool, huh?

I hadn't had a chance to go look at that so I just did. Very nice! I'll have to stick mine in when I get a chance. I did notice that there are 3 of us at Via Napoli about the same time.

It would be fun if there were other Dissers on the Keys to Kingdom tour.

The various links are in the first post of this thread (as well as post #354).

I also don't do the dining plan......not a fan.
I like Flame Tree at AK for a quick...and good meal.

I don't go to sites off the DIS for planning.........no facebook or anything else.

Have you ever ordered a custom cake before? Pricey! Here's a link to the post in the Cake Thread where I posted pics and information for the cake we had made in 2011 for DD's bday. We had it delivered to our room at POR. We brought plates and gallon-sized ziploc bags, and had to cut the cake up when we finished and put each (huge...) slice on a plate and into a bag. The mini-fridge was cold enough that it froze the cake, and we took it home in a cooler and finished it off at home! Rapunzel Cake

Best Disney Story: wow..... so many memories. Cant pick just one

Due to the FP+ changes....... we put ALOT more effort into planning this years itinerary.
First my daughter and I made lists and schedules and charts, looking at EMH and FP+. Then Mom, Meg, and myself sat down ...... we know which park we're starting out each day , what rides we're going to 1st, which CS for lunch, approx time to park-hop to the next park which is where our FP+ will be for that day, where dinner CS will be and what night show we might be aiming for that night.

We've never planned to THIS extent before..... but we're concerned about the wait times for rides since we're limited to 3 FP+ per day.

So we have a BEAUTIFUL calendar made up that would frighten some people, but it makes us smile.

The last time I went my wife and son were with me, but they can't make it this time . My biggest concern is with Magic Bands (big surprise). They weren't even a thing the last time we went. I am doing my best to keep up with all of the news, but trying to predict what will happen with them by June is giving me a headache. What do you guys do to keep from going Magic Band crazy?

This is our scary calendar (if I did this right)

Obviously ...... I didnt do it right. Can I upload photos?

 

[teedee]

Will be arriving on June 10 with my daughter, son in law and much adored 6 year old grandson. I can't wait to see his reactions to the characters. Last time he was afraid of the characters, but he says he can't wait to meet them this time. We shall see. We are staying at Pop

Finally booked our trip. June 1-9! I'm trying to figure out this MDE thing and it's driving me bonkers. It has me added as my own friend, and I can't delete it. I'm trying to put my parents in there, too, because they are traveling with us on a separate reservation, but they don't have email or anything, so I'm trying to make reservations for all of us. The app is not cooperating. Anyway, I'm now in a rush to figure out park times and dining, and now I have to figure out the Fast Pass stuff too? Do I need to schedule FP now? This is getting way too complicated. But I'm still excited! Debbie

P.S. Staying at ASMU Suites, for the 4th time. Love that place!

 

[kalee45]

Relax, you can't book FP until around Mid March! If you have your parents reservation number, you should be able to link it when you pull up the "my reservations" page. If not just book the dining with the them added to your party. The toughest part is to decide park visitation, then do dining, then FP. If you add the phone app it will probably remind you can book FP+. Or if you're like me you'll just pull up the MDE site every day or so, look at your plans and sigh happily.

Happy New Year to my fellow Junies! :-D
