Official May 2011 thread!

Anyone else doing Disney Movie nights? We started this a few weeks ago and that's helping the time fly by even quicker. I think half the fun is the anticipation though, right?

Absolutely!

Already did: Peter Pan, Aristocats, Brer Rabbit (not Disney but my daughter loves Splash Mountain and Brer Rabbit), Bolt and one more I can't think of right now.

I'm picking up Swiss Family Robinson today since my daughter wants to go up the Treehouse.

We'll do about 1 movie every other day.

Now I'm definitely adding in the Pixar movies that will have characters at Epcot, too!

• Buzz, Woody, Jessie, Bullseye, Lotso and Mr. Potato Head from Toy Story 3 will be at the American Adventure.

oh man, we were going to skip this because A: crowds and B: our last park day is the 13th and it's a MK day. but my kids want to meet Bullseye and Lotso sooooooooo bad! Man this is messing with my plans!

I am EXACTLY in the same boat! My almost-3 year old LOVES Pixar characters but it is our LAST full day (the 13th) and we already have Animal Kingdom planned. I don't want to deal with the crowds, but, I might have to go at some point so he can see them all. UGH!!!!

I'm so excited to go back to DIS in late May with my family!!! I can't wait much longer, but I guess waiting is half the fun!

 

[momto2greatkids]

Out of the blue - do any of you put the lime green mickey heads on your doors, backpacks, etc?

MICKEY MAIL!

 

[britt_ji]

The Disney-Pixar Weekend sounds so exciting, wish we could be there!

 

[Cinderella1122]

I got my mickey mail today!!!!! Now I hope the rest of the 30 days fly by.

I also overheard a disney conversation today at the stylist. Thewoman who was stitting across from me was telling her stylist about her upcoming trip and the stylist who claimed to be a "frequent" visitor was giving her all kinds of mis-information. I wanted to chime in, but I kept to myself and smiled because i'm going to disney too.

26 days to go and I assumed my "Mickey Mail" was the magical express vouchers and luggage tags, but while reading some of these posts, should I be receiving something else? This is our first DVC stay! Now Im worried!?!

I believe that is all you should be receiving. When you booked your trip, DVC would have sent you your reservation letter.

When you get to the villa and check in you will get your "Welcome Home" packet with all sorts of good info in there.

Have fun

Just booked my trip for Destination D: Walt Disney World! I'll be there from the 12th-17th (I threw in some extra fun time). It's just me going...DH was like "Have fun, Hun. I'm staying home!) Do you think I'll get my ME tags before I go?

23 days out here and just got my MM. I got the luggage tags. Mine said the magical express vouchers will be sent seperate.

Thanks Grandma and Grandpa! Going May 12th (arriving late) staying till May 16th. Staying at SSR (our home resort) Not making a lot of detailed plans....but we are going to eat well!

May 13th - Citricos 8pm

May 14th - 8pm Spirit of Aloha

May 15th - 9:35 (late) California Grill

Biggest problem will be keeping this trip a secret from kids.....DS15, DD10, DD6, DS4 will freak if (when) they find out!

 

[Joyciemc]

Looks like everyone is getting very excited about their trips!!!

One thing to remember, Don't Wish the month away, because before you know it your trip will be over with!!!

As excited as I am, I really try and enjoy the last few weeks that lead up to my vacation.....................I know, I know "Crazy Person".

Not crazy at all! I think the weeks leading up to the trip are some of the best- nothing like being able to say that I only have 2 Mondays left before Disney!

We are DVC as well... No Mickey Mail for DVC, just the reservation letter and magical express documentation.

 

[Disneywedding2010]

You don't recieve luggage tags (they are hologriphic (sp) with the castle on them) if your booking DVC. However, if your paying cash for a trip they will send them to you. We paid cash for our Christmas trip last year and recieved them with our Mickey mail. Like PP stated you will get the Magical Express info (if you requested that service) and you should get a letter about your reservation a few weeks after you made the reservation.
