****Official May 2012 Thread**** ALMOST TIME TO LEAVE!!

Count me in for May 11th-19th at Coronado Springs Resort! Party of 15 celebrating my 25th, err, 40th Birthday! :cool1:

Great place to celebrate your 40th!! My Dh and I have both done it, and it is great!!!
Happy Birthday!!:cake:
 
I'll be at POP from 5/2-5/12 only 14 days away!!! I can't wait!!

Hey I'll be at Pop April 27 - May 8. Feel free to leave a message on my door if you pass it (it will have dry erase boards on it, and out window will be decorated with the Fab Five and Tinkerbell and Figment should be in the window daily)
 

We leave for the Beach Club in 12 DAYS!!!!!

Holy Moly Macaroni I am getting excited!!

I ended up making a change to our trip. I upgraded to the DDP!! I actually still made some really good ADR's! I was suprised too.

I still may make a few more, OR I will just use the rest of my credits for CS places.

I even managed to book BBB for my daughter. She has to go to the DTD location but that is perfect. Her appt is for 3:15 But our Dinner at CRT isn't until 9:25. I say that is fine!

We will be there in 13!! I'm thinking we may upgrade our QSDP to DDP if we are not too late. We'll be hanging out at SAB quite a bit in the afternoons, maybe we will see you then.

Does Mousekeeping leave your dry erase board alone? This sounds like a cool idea but I am afraid someone would take it off our door (either mousekeeping or another guest)

Have you done this before?

We will be there and I will have a Dis sign with my username on it, in the window. Hopefully some other things too but I am not sure what yet. Yes, last minute stuff is going on here. :rotfl2: We will most likely have Maximus in the window (you know, guarding our room) while we are gone.

They stayed there last trip, they are magnetic and I put them on the door and one person wrote notes to me a couple of times. I would write something like "Magic Kingdom today" and the person would write back "I hope you gave a great time, enjoy splash mountain" It was cool.
I have little green mickey head that I have not put my screen name on yet, hopefully I can get that done before we leave. And no one took my stuff off the doors or off the windows, so I think it's safe.
 
I'll be on the look out for ya!! :)

:banana: So exciting for those of you who are leaving in a week or two! Be sure and come back and fill all of us going later on in May with the scoop! We've got a whoppin' 28 days, so we're reading daily....
A-n-t-i-c-i-p-a-t-i-o-n is making us wait:hyper::hyper::hyper:

Want to hear what's new, closed, what you liked, any fun surprises...just want to hear:listen:

Have fun with last minute planning!
 
22 daaaaays! I'm living off instant noodles so I can have more spending money :rotfl2: TOTALLY WORTH IT! I'll eat well with my ADRs when we get there, anyway! Roughly 3 weeks/3 paychecks to make it happen, hehehehe.
 
This time next week we will be just entering a park at Universal:cool1:

DD and I got our hair done today (a pre-trip tradition) and are going to give ourselves pedicures and manicures this week to save some money. We can do a good job on those ourselves so we might as well put the 80 or more it would cost us into spending money::yes::

Suitcases are out. Hubby just tried on all of his shorts to make sure they still fit. I bought new sunglasses last night and we pick up dd's new passport on Tuesday. We're getting close!!!!!!


ETA) I forgot to add... I woke up to one of those "You're almost here!!" emails from Universal. Since we're staying onsite we have early entry for Spiderman and The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. At 7a.m.! We are early morning rope drop people for sure.. but to be ready to hit the park at 7 am we're going to need to get up by 6 at the latest. I think we need to start going to bed early and getting up an hour early this week to be ready!
 
I'm so jealous and excited for those of you heading out soon! We have 30 more days!!! This time exactly one month today, we should be at Pop! :)

WOW - I had no idea early entry was 7am :scared1: I bet it helps a lot with the crowds, though. Have to plan that for our August trip. Definitely want to get into WWoHP before the crowds :thumbsup2

Just FYI - the last 2 trips at ASMu when I tried to put decorations and a message board on our door, Mousekeeping removed them and left them in the room. I was kind of surprised but I'm still going to try again at Pop! :)

Did you use tape? They never touched mine in October. I think b\c they were magnetic so they knew they were ok, but I don't know, maybe you had a mean mousekeeper.:rotfl2:
