PART FIVE!! *December 2012 Roll Call* Holidays, FLE & MVMCP!! A very, merry thread!

[mom2travel]

Oh my effing God. Do you know how hard it was for me to to explain my " HA " 's to my coworkers?

Somewhere back in part 3 or 4, wasn't an "Adults Only" thread discussed? I think we've finally decended into that particular ring.

That made me LOL! Hee-hee! Picturing you explaining THAT one. At least I work from home and would just look insane to an observer laughing to myself

 

[mom2travel]

Is that your kittie? Cuteness!

No Just thought she was cute

Part 2 - This is going out to the POR army that has built up here. My party and I are hoping to catch Bob's show at the River Roost on 12/8. We'd love to see you there for a drink and a laugh or 2.

what time is the show? We're at POFQ but maybe it could work if it's late. We're doing CP & illuminations that night

Thank you!

So, if you're flying with Delta, check your flight numbers. You DO need to let ME know if they have changed! I wouldn't have noticed if I hadn't gone to check our flights - they did not notify me.

The show starts at 8:30 and I think it runs till 11 or 12, with breaks. We're doing Osbourne lights that night, so we may not make the start of the show. But I definitley want to go. Hope I'll still have gas in the tank.

We're planning on catching the second half of his show on Thursday dec 14th......we have dinner at Yachtsman at. 8:45 so we won't be able to catch the beginning.....but we don't arrive at POR until the 9th

We have rezzie at Raglan Road for 8:00 but will be heading back to POR after - We'll be wearing Buffalo Bills sweatshirts so no snide comments please. We know how badly the Pats beat them.

One week from right now we'll have just taken off from Norfolk. I will be reminding myself to breathe, because holding your breath for two hours is not recommended. Oh, and I'll be praying lots!

Another girl in DS's class is at Disney right now! Funny. I also noticed that DS's teacher has a Mickey Mouse chair at her table. Maybe the expression I saw on her face was jealousy!

We don't arrive until the 10th. Thursday 12/14 is our DTD night. We have reservations at Yachtsman on Wednesday night.

None was the conclusion I was about to reach. Why does DH want to go back? Something specific? I don't think we have pizza planned for any other part of the trip (maybe WPE in DTD) so pizza could be an option. Best case is Min and Bill's is open, worst case Fairfax or Pizza Planet.

I just asked him and he said "because it was good." Helpful I know. He has pretty simple tastes. He may run screaming out of Sanaa.

Totally agree. Our DHS plan involves hitting a few things early and getting out by 11. Probably do lunch at Beaches & Cream

This is my plan for one day too.


You girls are crazy today!! I was cracking up!


If I go with Plan B, I will be at the POR meet on 12/8. Otherwise I will be sitting here at home thinking of you.

I've been productive while at work today! I canceled a Kona and added a Chef Mickey for 7:05 breakfast. Canceled a Grand Floridian Cafe and added a Crystal Palace 8:20 (not a pre-park but I'll try to get in at 7:55) . Then I added a Kona for our last day since I must have Tonga Toast before we come back home!

What do you think the chances of getting in to MK five minutes early are with our CP ressies that used to be pre-park opening? I really wanted some people free pictures! Darn the holidays!

 

[rachdd]

Well we are leaving at about 9 in the morning and guess who still hasn't packed.... Yep, this girl!

Hi I am Rachel. Feel free to say Hi if you see me and like others my husband will probably get weirded out. Ha! Oh, and if you see someone and aren't positive if it is me, just listen for a second and if you hear me yell "Jaxon" (which I am sure will be often) then you are right!

I can't believe we will be at WDW tomorrow!! So excited!!!

 

[DisneyDreamerMN]

Hi Rachel,
I am Jamie, the one who is also staying at WL tomorrow through next Saturday

Say hi if you see me!

 

[Mom2Cody06]

This is me (be kind, I dislike taking pictures of myself). Feel free to say hi if you see is, I'll have a pink under armor backpack to match my grey and pink UA sneakers, lol.

ETA - I tried to resize that darn picture 3 times but I can't tell how big it is on my phone....ugh! Sorry!

Will Do!! What time do you arrive tomorrow? We probably won't check into WL until 9PM. Ugh! We land at 7:30 and we rented a car so we are making a run to WalMart before we check in.

Guess what I got?!?! FP+ cards in the mail.

So I know there are a couple other people who are not using DME when they arrive but are coming back on it. That's the case for us since it's a split stay. We switch on the 11th so that's our check-in date but we aren't arriving on DME. We are set to return on DME though and that must have been enough.

Of course, the cards I got are for the room I cancelled. Naturally. However, as other people on the board reported, I was able to enter the confirmation number for the room we do have and got my FPs. Hopefully the cards will come tomorrow. If not, I'm sure I can get them replaced at Guest Relations.

The only hitch is that DSis is listed in that system as being on the cancelled room and now she's on our room. So I ended up doing both rooms but separately and got slightly different but overlapping FP times. I'm hoping I can get that straightened out at Guest Services so we're all on the same room. But if not, I now have FPs with essentially a 40 minute window for 4 attractions on our MK day.

FYI - there were still MSEP and Wishes slots available on Dec 12. Unfortunately we can't do it that day and every other day during the period that we're there is a Party day. I did notice that on Party days the Parade and Wishes are marked as Standby Only. But of course, they're really not actually scheduled.

Yay!! Glad you get to do it since you have been so interested in the testing.
