Cant wait to get my hands on the Star Wars Vinyls, and new tees-- (LOVE the designs (screen prints) that they came up with for this year !!!)

This may be off topic but someone mentioned sunscreen.... can anyone recommend a good one for adults? We usually get the Target Sport one that you spray on but we go through a can SO quickly and I'd hate to take up room in the suitcase for several of those (plus it's quite greasy). Thanks in advance!

I love Neutrogena sunscreen SPF 50. They sell it at Target, it is both waterproof and not oily. It is perfect for adults!

3 more days!!!! Just 3 more days!!!!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!

 

[Annadesu]

12 more days of waiting, over here! Just 8 more work days! WHOOOOO!

This time next week, we'll be starting our final packing...

 

[wish_upon_a_star35]

Leaving tomorrow! Flight leaves at 7 a.m. So hard to imagine that at this time tomorrow I will be "Home"

It's a cough and a bit of a fever. It seems to be mostly gone now... I really should have sent him to school today but I couldn't risk getting a phone call in the middle of the day (babysitting so I can't leave). I loaded up on Emergen-C last night so hopefully I won't get it.

Hopefully he'll be all better by the time you leave! I've had all of us taking vitamins with extra C for a couple weeks now - not sure if it works, but makes me feel like I'm doing something positive

We're at CBR in 3 days I'll try to post some pictures here when we get back, but there's a great thread for CBR pics on the resort board - some really beautiful recent ones!

Is anyone planning on a doing a live TR??

Also since we are all finishing our packing or starting to work on our packing, what are some things you find essential to pack that some might forget?

I'm going to do a trip report. I posted the introduction in the Trip Report board, but I'm going to wait until the actual trip to update it anymore. I'm not going to bore everybody with "now I'm going clothes shopping," "here are the snacks I packed," and "ok, now I'm packing" posts.

Essential things that are likely to be forgotten:
Chargers for all the electronics (cameras, laptops, cell phones)
Power strip for all those charger cords
Drink straps
30 SPF sunscreen
Little handheld Coleman fans to keep cool while standing in outdoor lines
Copies of the Resort confirmation and ADRs

62 hours! I have barely packed

 

[Disneynut71]

Super excited for all those going "home" this week....Please share some pics with us for those of us that still have a few weeks to go.

I went to the dollar store today and bought lots of word search and coloring books and such. We have a long drive. Have to keep the kids busy. At least my DS who is logging driving hours will love driving. I'm not sure how my nerves will be...but we will see.

27 days to go!!

Yay! We'll be there until Monday morning. Just a quick weekend trip for our 19th anniversary! Sunday we're doing the KTTK tour at MK and then plan to spend the evening at Epcot (dinner ressies at Rose&Crown - hoping for a patio seat for Illuminations )

It'll be just DH and I - maybe we'll run into each other

DD is in finals week at Auburn and then home this weekend. We leave on the 10th for Bonnet Creek and will be giving her an AP for doing so well. We're back at BC in July for a quick weekend. Two trips in two months. How great is that !!!

 

[budafam]

We'll be there THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!

My son is STILL sick... thought he was getting better yesterday but now he has the runny nose & a little fever again. It's pouring rain here today so I'm not about to send him off to school to stand in the rain and wait for the bus I'm pretty sure he's going to have the record for most missed school days in one year (including 2 trips to Disney!)

On a lighter note, we finished packing everything last night. I bought the kids new shorts and had them try them on. DS is going to be 6 in July and he was too tiny for the 4T shorts... I have to return them and get 3T's!!!

Weather is looking GREAT! I'm just hoping it stays decent up here for our take off and there are no delays.
