Official September 2012 planning thread! List on page 30!

We did Carbon Freeze Me. Here is a link to my son's experience. http://disboards.com/showpost.php?p=45324081&postcount=112

He loved it. It took over 6 weeks to receive it in the mail. The Carbon Freeze Me was 8 inches long. Personally, I feel it was way over priced. It was one of those things we will probably only do once. We really have to look hard to see his resemblence in it. It had Han Solo's hairline and neck with my son's face on it.

Here's a link of the finished product

That's actually pretty cute and funny. I think it comes across better than the princess ones because it's meant to have more of a sci-fi look. And that was a really good idea about getting a toy version to play with!
 
Ok, I was going to keep 1 day free of an ADR but couldn't resist! :rotfl: Here are the ADR's.
Sept 1st: San Angel Inn for dinner
Sept 2nd: Ohana for breakfast
Sept 3rd: Yak & Yeti for lunch
Sept 4th: Les Chefs de France for dinner (7th year anniversary dinner!) :lovestruc
Sept 5th: Tusker House for breakfast (1st time since 2009!). Just booked this one yesterday!
Sept 6th: Via Napoli for lunch
Sept 7th: Crystal Palace for breakfast (husbands 1st time ever and my 1st time since I was 4!) :yay:
Sept 8th: Kona for breakfast
We prefer just having 1 ADR/day and the rest of the meals we will just do QS or whatever we feel like eating, and at whatever time! We don't like to be too much on a schedule.

:offtopic: My sister in law her husband will be watching our fur kids, AKA dogs, and we are trying to think of a good gift for them. They were just married a couple months ago so we would like to get something more personalized. My husband mentioned the glass engraving area once you get off "Journey Into the Imagination". Does anyone know if they will engrave the glass cube from a picture you bring in? We have a couple of really good pictures of them from their wedding and thought if we could get one of those pictures engraved in the glass that would be perfect! Any ideas? :idea:

and still no Mickey mail :confused3 I used a TA and e-mailed her last week. She said she will let me know when she gets the stuff to mail. What is the latest anyone has ever gotten their Mickey Mail prior to travel date?

Hope you get it soon! That's odd that you don't have it yet being at 20 days...
 

I leave next week I can hardly wait. 11 days more to go. :cool1::) I have plenty to keep me busy so I'm sure hoping it goes by fast. Got all our back to school shopping done this week for my older dd. So that is one thing that is done.

I'm a TA and sometimes it takes awhile for us to receive the Mickey Mail. It has to go to the main agency address (I work from home, so it goes to the head of the agency's house) and then they have to mail the documents to the individual agents. Don't worry. I'm sure she'll get everything to you in time. If I have to, I'll send things overnight or priority mail to my clients.

I got mine two weeks before I left last time.

I talked to a CM today about ours because we added a traveler on Saturday. Wanted to make sure we received all of the vouchers, etc. Together. She says none go out b4 its completely paid off, and it's generally at the two week mark. I thought I remembered getting it about 30 days out...
 
I posted this on the transportation board, but I'm sharing it here too as I know you all will commiserate!

Just got a call from Amtrak that they've cancelled the Autotrain for our travel date and the two days after. They said there's bridgework being done that weekend and the train will not be running. We tentatively rescheduled for the date prior, but I'm sure the train will be packed (we had to give up lower level coach seats as there were none available for the new date, only regular coach) and it will mean an extra hotel night, as our rental house won't be available till the following day.

So now we're thinking about driving. Definitely not my first choice -- my 3yo does not ride well -- but I can't see paying the cost of the train if it's not adding any convenience. I'm waiting for my inlaws to get home from their *other* vacation so we can decide how we're going to handle it (we had planned to all travel together).

Just when I thought I had it all figured out...! :sad2:


Sorry to read this Julirina! Hope you are able to get things sorted. Not fun to have transportation changes when you were all good to go.
 
Ok, I have a question. We booked a room only ressie and are using DME. I have never used DME before. Will I get my vouchers before I leave or do I get them at Orlando airport? Not sure because I didn't do a package deal!! :confused3:confused3

We didn't do a package and got ME tags today. We leave Sept. 15.

I leave the 14th, I need to check my mail!! I swear the only time I check my mail is when I'm waiting for something Disney to come. My mailman probably hates me the rest of the year!
 
Checked the mail, we got MICKEY MAIL!! Now I'm just waiting on my sister to get hers (they are going with us, but we live in different states)...Hopefully soon!!:banana::banana::banana:
 
Your leaving a day before me so I should be getting mine soon ( hopefully ) lol..... I'm gonna attack my mailman this week!!!
 
We are second guessing ourselves on our plans. Trying to financial responsible (on vacation? is that a thing?? ;) ). We had planned to do IOA just for Potterville. Literally, just for Potter. We went in Oct 11, so have already done it and loved it, so we thought we would do it again. But now, being a responsible adult is creeping in. I hate that lady! So, to Potter, or not to Potter. We can just do another day at the parks that we already have an AP for!
