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

[WedgieSock]

So that part is only about the card? I might totally go ahead and buy PP+ soon just to have it then.

Yep, basically, when you order it, you receive a voucher/piece of paper and you trade that in for your actual PP+ card (there are locations at each park and DTD). The piece of paper itself does not have any expiration dates/valid dates.


So yes, I think you could save it.

Awesome!

Sunday I plan on putting the clocks back one hour, I thought what the heck, if I do it,it might actually catch on then everyone will get an extra hour on Sunday. You're welcome.

Thanks for doing that. I appreciate that extra hour of sleep. But then I dont like you so much in the spring.

Sorry, Spring was nothing to do with me! I tried to stop it but the force was too strong.

When they called to confirm my time and group, they asked that we arrive promptly because an hour and 15 minutes behind us is a party of 100-- NOW THAT IS NUTS!!!

First, build a bear does great parties so have fun!

2nd - even I'm not insane enough to have that many kids at a party!!

I get very cranky about that whole "spring forward" grrr!

So, weekend plans... Gloriously little DD has a dance class and a tennis lesson and that's it!!!
We've been really busy the past few weekends and more to come through the end of the year, so I'm very much looking forward to chill time

I know this is another question asking you to be a weather forecaster, but I need your opinions. I am ordering a custom Dr. Seuss dress for DD for our IoA day. I found one that is long-sleeved (yay!), but I just wonder if she'd be too hot? I would order a pillowcase dress for her so she can layer, but she is super-stubborn and refuses to wear a shirt under those dresses.

So has anyone been to Tutto Gusto wine cellar in the Italy pavillion? I know you can't make ADRs there but it looks good for one of my nights out with DH...

I have not, but it sounds like fun!

Oh, I almost forgot to report in that my Mickey mail came today!!

 

[happy tink]

Hi everyone, I've been away and wow, I don't think I have time to catch up.

I bought my PP and MVMCP tickets today!

I'm very happy everyone is okay and very sad about Beethoven.

I'm not sure how many of you have ridden Soarin at Epcot, but it's awesome. I've never ridden the one at Epcot, but I'm pretty sure it's a copy of the ride at Disneyland. Anyway, when your watching the intro, where they tell you the cities you will soar over, one is Camarillo, that's where I live!

I purchased regular, 5 day MYW tickets, without hopper. Trying to save money, and now I'm wishing I had purchased hoppers.

28 days for us, after today! Yippie!!!

 

[Tltorrez]

Another birthday party!! Have fun! Do you know which way your inlaws are leaning yet?

I have to assume, since they haven't said much on the subject that they are still leaning towards going. We have talked to them frequently, we just haven't asked about the trip because we don't want to pressure them. But I know he's progressing and he seems to be in good spirits.

I found out today that they changed their flight back from Florida. They were supposed to come home on the 8th but they pushed it back to the 15th. I think they wouldn't have come home at all if they hadn't promised my SIL that they would be home for Thanksgiving.

On an unrelated note - my FIL was published in a Diabetes magazine today. Apparently he wrote the article about 6 months ago, well before the accident.

I grew up in LA and went to undergrad at UCSB. Stayed and worked in SB for two years after graduation. Used to stop in Camarillo (umm...those outlets) on my way to and fro LA. Those outlets got a good amount of my money!

Yep, it's there...kinda in the corner behind Tutto Italia.

 

[Tltorrez]

The marathon has been canceled if anyone cares. I do, but that a discussion for elsewhere.

And my PP+ shipped today!!!!

Yeah, I just saw that they cancelled it due to "intense criticism". No? Really?!?!

 

[Tltorrez]

This might be a weird question, but...how soon after paying for PP+ do you have to use it? I don't know if I want to use it for our trip in December, but I will definitely want it for my family trip in 2014.

No expiration on Photopass CD or PP+ Preorder. Lots of people order early so that they can get the discounted price. Though honestly, the regular pre-order has been discounted forever so I think it's unlikely that the PP+ pre-order discount will go away anytime soon.

It's new so we haven't been yet but we plan to spend a lot of time there.

FYI - they offer complimentary wine seminars on Mondays and Thursday from 3-4pm.

No worries. You can add Hoppers at any time for the same price. So you can add them on the spot if you decide you need them.

Shopping note - I went to Michael's today and they have all the Christmas stuff out. They usually have Disney stuff in the stocking stuffer aisle, not too much this time but some sparkly princess stuff and some super cute socks (boys and girls).

On an unrelated note, they tore down our Food Lion a few months back and when I went over there today, it was a brand new Kohls. Yay.

I'm playing with my Silhouette and an ornament die cut this evening. For my Disney tree. We'll see how it goes.
