Do you think it would be ok to wear them around the house until the trip?!?! Lol!! Gotta break 'em in, just like new shoes!

I've been wearing mine and DS's all day. I can't decide if I want to make mine kid sized or leave the grey part on. It is lighter and better fitting without the grey, but the grey makes it look nicer. Decisions, decisions...

You have to have the right accessories!! Lol

We got our bands this morning! So happy!

What's the deal with the names?

They are characters from Disney Channel's Gravity Falls. That is who we are dressing up as for MNSSHP.

I have been wearing mine and I find it a little too big at the first to grey holes and worry it might be too small at the first two holes on the non grey. Does not having the grey on give you a little extra room that wasn't there before? I'm worried that it will be to tight if I take off the grey and will drive me crazy by the end of the day.

Yes, with the grey off, you don't have all the bulk underneath that goes around your wrist which causes it to feel tighter. Without the grey, it fits looser.

Do you think a poolview room in the 50's section would be noisy (at night) ?
Does it depend on which floor the room is situated ?

I requested lake view last time we were at Pop and it was noisy (but because of noisy neighbors) in the back of building 3, so DD wants again to be near the bowling pin pool what should I request ?

TIA

Thanks, and yes, we arrive the 18th. You will likely get them tomorrow. I got an email from Disney Destinations this morning stating that they were on their way, and they arrived by UPS a few hours later. Good luck!

I had to take the grey off too. Fit better and was easier to put on by myself.

I have had a pool view room (bldg 1) ground floor right next to the pool and I never had problems with noise at night even during the middle of summer! It was quite pleasant! That. Was MY experience both times, one trip in June 2010 for 9 nights and another trip in July for a week. Good Luck!!

Hope our bands ship tonight and come tomorrow! Still no Mickey Mail. Broke down and called, CM didn't seem too concerned. Said they should come in the next week. Already knew the "around" 30 days thing so that didn't help my impatience to get it LOL! Maybe I'll get my MBs and MM on same day...tomorrow! I hope!!! Oh and our Disney Parks 2013 Halloween shirts we ordered from Disney store online are arriving for sure tomorrow, so let's hope for a total Disney Jackpot tomorrow!!!

 

[prettypatchesmsu]

On a side note, glad I asked about my room requests while I was on there as one of them was gone!!!

I've been wearing mine, and we don't leave for another two sleeps! I'm right on the edge of the size between the grey and green and having a hard time deciding if I should cut it down. I'm going to leave it intact until we get there at least

An update on my band/sizing issue. I decided to try cutting the grey end to make it not wrap around my wrist so much. It worked perfectly! I left 3 grey holes by cutting just past the third hole in a rounded shape just like it looked before. So now I can keep the clean edge look of the grey without all of the extra bulk.

Cool! You'll have to post a pick! I like the way the grey edge looks but was worried about the sizing.

I've actually shortened even more, but here is what it looks like on the end now...
