Evening guys,
Just reading about the planning thing. It's wierd, I plan American Disney trips and DLRP ones differently. Paris I make a note of my confirmation numbers and ADR's on a piece of paper then go with the flow. American parks I have a planning folder with pockets for each day, maps for the day, confirmation numbers for the day, data about the best order to collect fastpasses, data about predicted wait times for each ride at each hour of the day!! And yes my plans are laminated!!
Maybe I need help!!

 

[torsie24]

Sounds ace to me!

Sure I'll be the same with our wdw trip.

Already thinking of signing up to TGM! Will only fuel my planning obsession, I'm sure.

Evening Karen

when I read some of the planning on the WDW board I often wonder how we survived our trips there as we just went with the flow

 

[torsie24]

I think it will be worth it for me though - to mega plan - as we'll only have a week.

 

[Danauk]

I used Tour Guide Mike and passporter last trip. I love the Passporter pockets to keep organised. The advice from Tour Guide Mike was really good. We went at Christmas and I didn't think it was that busy!
Next time I will use them and ridemax. I used ridemax for Disneyland in the summer and it was very good too. I really love to plan though.

 

[torsie24]

wow - never heard of passporter or ridemax.

Just think - today is the last day I can say that!!!

Off i go!

yeah, thats what we'll do i guess - and ADRs will factor in.

But as we have limited time i think i'll make sure i know everything i definitely must seee, and the best times to do them.

Thats why I use ridemax to look at the wait times for rides throughout the day. Then you can go with the flow but make an educated decision about what you are doing at the same time. I follow TGM's green park days, they seem to work really well.

I would get the deluxe folder one not the spiral bound. I have used the same folder for 3 trips now and just buy the update and new pockets for each trip. I get it direct from the passporter site.

Good Evening everyone! Well I took the plunge today and bought some shares - have printed the confirmation off, now to get the Disney Shareholders page to load correctly and print my form off on there, it's not playing at the moment in either IE7 or AOL. My daughter has said she will then fax it through for me on Thursday.

Freezing here, spent an hour last night outside with a neighbour trying to get his car started (he's been away for around 3weeks) - gawd knows why he asked me I know NOTHING about jump leads, between us we worked it out but still nothing. He's now got the keys to my car to move it again when the garage comes to move his. I was frozen to the bone by the time I came in and then had to walk to work for the staff meeting!

 

[Danauk]

Yeah thats the one. If you are going for 2 weeks you will need to order a few more pockets though. I get them direct from their website. My workmates laugh at my passporter file. I am known for being super organised at work, they think the passporter planing for my holiday is so me!!

 

[Danauk]

Ooh well done Diane, you'll be having a Mickey pastery in Salon Mickey in no time!!
