Yes, yes I concur. I wish I was set like that.

It is the envelope which contains magical express info, room info, etc that Disney sends you about a month, or should come a month out from your stay at wdw. Lately it has come too close to some guest's arrivals. It doesn't come with the keys to the world passes because you get those at check in.

I'm originally from Alberta and would LOVE to see a Tim Hortons at the Canadian Pavilion! I miss my Timmies Double Double with a pecan tart :/

I am at this moment drinking my daily triple triple and having a Timmy's in the Canadian Pavillion would be a great idea! That is more Canadian that anything there eh!

I know this is way (sorry Andre) but while we are making the Canadaian Pavillion more Canadian lets get rid of the lumber jack jackets and put the CMs in some hockey jerseys. I see about one guy a week in a lumber jack jacket and about 15-20 a day wearing a hockey jersey.

Hope it went well at the Dr Have a great trip - come back to post and let us know how it went

The Dr. said that her throat was really red, even though it hasn't been sore. She was pretty sure it's strep, but didn't even bother with the test because she said that she was prescribing an antiobotic regardless. She even wrote me a prescription for a z-pak in case I get sick next. That was pretty awesome especially considering she is a pediatrician!

Apparently our pedriatrician is a disney fan. She was so excited when she heard where we were going and asked us all sorts of questions about what parks we were going to and where we were staying. We had to promise to bring back a picture of DD with one of the characters so she can hang it on her wall of pictures in the office.

I am so glad I took her in. Now I can have a little peace of mind and hopefully not have to worry about it getting worse. In retrospect, I'm glad it happened now rather than her getting sick after we got there.

Sorry to just pop in again with a question! You guys convinced me months ago that POR was the best place for us to stay, so I haven't worried about it. But... then I started hearing Pop Warner talk. We haven't settled on our dates yet and we're fairly flexible. We were thinking about a week or maybe 8 days sometime between 11/25 and 12/15. I know it hasn't been announced yet, but any ideas about whether POR will be a Pop Warner resort this year? I really, really don't want to stay near a bunch of noisy kids.

Also about your Canadian reference I have family from Quebec so I am not a stranger to that side of the boarder. Lol

Good morning everyone!

Good morning Venom!

Had to share - had the weirdest dream last night. We got to Disney and they put us in the mansions after we payed for preferred. I had to argue (in my dream) with the front desk that the mansions didn't count as preferred. He told me that everyone wanted to stay in the mansions, even if I had a parking lot view, and I should be happy! I told him to check the DisBoards and he would know what counted as preferred, water view, etc.

I guess I can't wait to get there!

Your poor significant other must be in pain from you swinging and kicking. Lol, most people move a lot while arguing in dreams. Hey I had a dream once they put us in the castle suite once because they were accidentally over booked.

Why thank you I think? I am just a naturally nice person. I go out of my way to help at wdw and outside of the parks as well. Good morning to you also.

Have a good time now that you have peace of mind!!!

Your not packed yet lol. We were packed 43days out lol.

In my mind, I'm packed

I have little things organized in areas of the house (that way it doesn't look like I'm trying to hurry the time along)

I'll be like a chicken with my head cut off the Sat before we leave, washing clothes, etc. Mine and DS's will be packed by early afternoon that Sat but DH will probably be packed that evening. (trying to decide what to take to wear, etc).

We are often the headless chicken scenario here also with last minute things. About hiding stuff from being seen, we do the same also, hiding the trip triage in the spare room across from our bedroom.
