Anyone in need of a rental car?

Dollar has mini van for $199/wk with code OOAG! :thumbsup2

Not sure of other car class prices.
 
Sounds like alot of us are here from Northern Virginia! Stone Ridge isn't too far from me (about 13 miles) and Haymarket is just a stone's throw away also!

I imagine the commute to Reston gets old - I have to commute to Springfield and it takes me about an hour also. Sounds like the majority of us in VA are contractors for the gov't! In this area it doesn't surprise me though!

Hope everyone has a wonderful trip to disney!
 
Can anyone tell me what kind of storage space is underneath the stroller (if any) and how much you can put in there...how hard/easy it is to access?

There is a large storage area under the stroller. It is the width of the stroller and about 8 inches deep (guessing). We put a small insulated cooler bag filled with water bottles, juice bags and snacks, three kids fleece jackets one adult jacket, the rain cover and the shade. Without the jackets, we fit the cooler bag and a large backpack. It holds a lot. It is VERY easy to access from the back and from the sides.

We hung the backpack on the handle when the bottom part was full. We are a family of 5 with a DD2, DD4 and DD6. We had a lot of stuff!
 
It sounds like you guys had a wonderful time nelep!

I Loved the pics you sent. On the wrough iron Mickey...where was that taken? That was awesome!
 
I'm so like going to be a widow before this trip happens!

I booked out resort last year and been faithfully making payments(almost paid off...wahooo). I recently bought the airline tickets @$139 R/T, we won the universal tickets, DD and I have been talking Disney non-stop (We just love WDW) all the while DH grimaced, moaned, commented how he just hates WDW and doen't understand our passion about all the hype. Again and Again, I'd say "are you sure you don't wanna go...we have soooooo much fun" and he would roll his eyes and say "nope, mommy and daughter can just have at it, Daddy is going to own the remote for 2 whole weeks. Well....GRRRRRRRRRRRRR to him.

So tonight, in the middle of a Disney commercial he calmly says "when are we going? I need to request the time off" :scared1: I know I gave him the most what the heck are you talking about look and said "so you wanna go with us???????????????????????????????????????" He says yep, with all the talking I decided I kinda miss the fun.

I really think it would be easier to KILL him than to start replanning everything...but since I love him so much, I will try to get him on the same flight, hopefully sitting near us, call WDW to get him added because we have free dining, order him Universal tickets since we won ours during Super bowl, Search the net to find him shirts to match the outfits we have for the photopass private photoshoots, and get him tickets for the parks.

Trust me, if it would have been after the ADR's, I would have shot him!

MY-OH-MY I love that man of mine (should be why-o-why do I love that man of mine):rotfl:
 
LOL...I'd kill him! At least you don't have your ADR's yet...I am in the middle of trying to rebook our ADR's because my cousin was approved his leave from the Army and will be joining us with his girlfriend.
 
I am interested in #3 for 10-13 to 10-19. I will send you a PM, but also have a question about the stroller since it is a jogger. Do the seats come up into a full "regular" seated position or are they always in a semi-reclined position? I know a lot of joggers have reclined seats (for more comfort and stability while the parent is actually jogging) and I've heard parents complain about using these types of strollers at WDW (hard to get in and out of). Thanks.
 
Ohhh no...this close to your trip. Everything is made, tweaked, and double tweaked and you have to redo them. BUMMER.

Yea, I would for sure be a widow if we were as close as you are to going.


I just popped over the WDW site and let me say this...I totally HATE the new dining webpage. I love the old one...you could click character...it would bring up any and all meals with a character and then tell you if it was on the dining plan. Plus what some of the items were at the meal. It totally sticks now. No very user friendly at all.

The seats can be adjusted individually to recline flat or sit up. The sitting up position is not straight up, it's slightly reclined. But we didn't have a problem with this. My DDs looked like they were lounging and taking in the sights! They were very comfortable.

We had no problem getting in and out of it. There's a removable bar that goes across the front. We left that off so that the kids could get in and out on their own without having to climb over the bar.

I don't think we will ever figure out the male species!!! :confused3 It would be so much easier if we all just learned to accept them as they are. But for some reason, I just can't do it!!!! :rotfl:

I love that he just casually mentioned "When are WE going?" That was subtle.

It was taken at the Contemporary Resort in the back by the boat dock. I'm trying to figure out how to upload a pic in a post so others can see what we are talking about. I think that pic will be our Christmas card!

Good night!

Well, I actually haven't been able to make the changes that I wanted to. I added a table for 2 at Mama Melrose's. It's a completely seperate ressie, 10 minutes after the one we have...but, I am hoping we can talk to the hostess to seat the two ressies near eachother. I did the same thing at Crystal Palace, but the big ressie is the first of the day, the second for 2 is 10 minutes later so I'm hoping they will actually just sit us all together. We'll see....a girl can dream can't she?

As for the others, no luck. So, I have opted to miss 1900 Park Fare (I'm not on the meal plan that night so at least I'll save some $$), my parents are skipping out on Teppan Edo because my dad was far from thrilled about eating Japanese. As for my Chef Mickey's ressie, who knows. I think my cousin will have to miss that because I won't let my parents, siblings, self miss this opportunity with DS. (he's missing 1900 PF too).

I'll still try to add something for Chef Mickey's but we'll see.
