The problem with only checking in 1/week, is that I have pages to catch up on...Now I'm tired and going to bed.

Maddi - I hope you don't have any more issues to deal with for this swap. Maybe we can get through the next 6 months with only wear & tear stuff. Sorry you had to get upset over $10 [or should I say, sorry that the other person got upset].

You are an :angel:

Nighty night, all.
 
Maddi, How did the ADR's go, was it today?

Anyone wanting a ressie for 9/19 or 9/20, i wont be making reservations those days for myself, i can try for a specific restaurant once i get mine scheduled. I would loveto spread extra Pixie Dust. I make my ADR's next sunday
 
I see that it is still open june 16-24....is there any way we can be a part of this? Also I see from previous posts about character meals...where is the best character lunch for a 5 and 3 year old? That sounds fun since I have never heard of one at Disneyland our home resort.

I am sorry but you do not meet the requirements posted on the first page in post #1.

As of 4/21/09, We do ask that you have been a member of DISBOARDS for at least 6 months and have 75 post to plus staying ONSITE to participate in our swap.. Just as you don't know us, we don't know you. Sadly, this decision was made due to the recent issues caused by people joining DISBOARDS just for a "free" stroller. We aren't trying to be unfriendly towards new DIS'ers, we are just looking out for the best welfare of our strollers. After reading and agreeing to the rules and responsibilities below and you would like to still join...

Good luck with your stroller search and have a magical vacation:wizard:

Hey ParkersMomma,
I just noticed that Mrsdennison has two strollers and so do I, about a week later. She is swapping to me with #4 but not with #2 (that one is coming from mousermom09). Would it make sense to swap mrsd (from #1) and mousermom09 (#2) around (if both are ok with that)? That way MrsD can drop off both strollers to the same place for me to use next. It would just make things easier for her. Seems like the dates would still all work out.
Of course, if we get some swappers in between our dates this would not work out at all. Just a thought!
:)
And thanks for all you do to keep the swaps going!

Hey fellow swappers!

I've been on vacation for a week (Virginia Beach) and just got back and found myself tortured to have no internet access and no DisBoards! :scared1: Anyhow just caught up with the past 3-4 pgs and it seems as if I haven't missed anything important, right?? I don't have any new PM's or anything but thought I'd pop in to say HI and let Parkers*Momma know I'm still around! :cool1:

The ADR swap sounds great - although way too confusing for me! I still have a good 2-3 mos before I can book so my mind is too tired now to think about how all of it would pan out. We are going Dec 5-13.

DD's 2nd bday is in one week! YIKES how do kids grow up so fast??? She is still my "baby" :love: and probably always will be. For some odd reason it's sad for me that she's turning 2 - like she's done with baby-hood. Is this weird for me to think that way??? Anyhow - we have her Dora party on Saturday so I'll be busy planning all the food, etc this week!

PS - edited b/c I just realized I'm FINALLY less than 6 mos on my ticker! woohoooooo! I booked our trip 18mos in advance so this is HUGE for me!

OK...let me figure this out

Swap #1
JULY 2009
1-6 snowwhitemom Confirmed
6-13 Mrsdennison (POP) confirmed
13-21 OPEN
20-30dolfinjuls (SS) CONFIRMED
30-31 OPEN

Swap #2
JULY 2009
1-3 OPEN
3-10 MouserMom09 Confirmed
10-21 OPEN
21-28 Artist (FWL) confirmed
28-31 OPEN

Swap #4
JULY 2009
1-4 mytwokiddies (POR) Confirmed
4-6 OPEN
6-13 Mrsdennison (POP) confirmed
13-21 OPEN
21-28 Artist (FWL) confirmed
28-31 OPEN


At a glance, it won't work. Mousermom needs a stroller 3-10. If I put her in swap #1, she wouldn't have a stroller until the 6th.

The other option would be if you would like to contact dolfinjuls and see if she would mind moving to swap #2...then I could put you in swap #1. Mrsdennison could then still bring both strollers to you. If you want to ask dolfinjuls that would be fine by me. Just let me know asap so we can all the swappers in those three swaps on the same page for exchanging information. :)

Nope haven't missed anything important other then story time. :rotfl:

It's easy!!! Closer to your ADR time, we can help you out if need be! It's basically just working the system to make sure you get the ADR's you want at the beginning of your stay.

DD's 2nd bday is in one week! YIKES how do kids grow up so fast??? She is still my "baby" :love: and probably always will be. For some odd reason it's sad for me that she's turning 2 - like she's done with baby-hood. Is this weird for me to think that way???

WEIRD?!?!?! Goodness NO! Why do you think I have 5 biological children and an adopted son and 1/2 the town kids calling us Mom and Dad. If I had my way, I would love to have another one...but age is a HUGE facter.:rotfl:

PS - edited b/c I just realized I'm FINALLY less than 6 mos on my ticker! woohoooooo! I booked our trip 18mos in advance so this is HUGE for me!
:banana::banana: HOW cool! Your first trip is less than 6 months away!:woohoo:

Maddi, seriously woman you ROCK!!!! Thank you so much for trying for the LeCellier on the 24th :hug: :hug:

I am going to try for CRT on the 23rd as well, would be so neat to see you there, are you doing lunch or dinner? We are hoping for lunch :goodvibes

9/19, 9/20 can reserve anything for anyone
9/21 we want a 50's prime time for dinner, but will take lunch
9/22 Yak &Yeti lunch (eating at the hotel that night and then MNSSHP, so i can try for dinner for someone just about anywhere.)
9/23 CRT for lunch for DS's birthday (can book a dinner for someone)
9/24 praying for LeCellier for dinner (can book a lunch for someone)
9/25 want CM's for dinner before MNSSHP (can possibly do a lunch for someone as long as i dont have to shift ressie's around to get CM's)
9/26 want to book something nice and pass it on for someone

anyone need something and i can fill it for you, please dont hesitate to ask!

Jazzi, AWESOME and thank you for getting Maddi's ressie's!!! :cheer2:

Seriously, these are some of the best women on this board!!! i am just amazed at how much we care and do for each other, not everyone would :hug::hug:
 
5 more days till we begin our long road trip(1700 miles one way). I am so nervous about the drive. Well actually about the whole thing! Did any of you find things that you needed to avoid while using the stroller ie. gates, buses, trams? We are using #2 if it makes a difference.

Nope.. Have a great trip! The strollers was fine to get around. We used a in step stroller for many years at Disney before we got in on this swap. There was a time when my DH had to get a double stroller and a single on the bus, while I carried the little ones on the bus. This is when they the little ones were 4,2 and a newborn. The two older ones try to hlep. I am... and I am sure my DH is glad those days are behind us. I thought it would get easier now that they are older... and it is most of the time.... yet know we get I want to ride with so and so... no you rode with her last..etc. :)
 
OK...let me figure this out...

...At a glance, it won't work. Mousermom needs a stroller 3-10. If I put her in swap #1, she wouldn't have a stroller until the 6th.

That's why YOU are in charge of this swap and not me! :worship: Somehow I didn't notice that about the dates, duh.
I will contact dolfinjuls about it though, and I will let you and mousermom09 both know if we end up moving around.
Thank you!
:goodvibes
 
Hi...I just checked in and saw the possiblity of a stroller move!

It's fine with me. I had already contacted Mrsdennison about the stroller, but it would probably be easier for her to bring both strollers to one place!

Just let me know if it's definite so I know who I need to get in touch with!
 
Well I heard back from my travel agent. I got all of my restaurants but not on the days I wanted. As it turns it works better, less time on the bus. Has anyone used the Transportation Wizard?
http://www.olpt.net/asp/twiz.aspx

I am hoping it would help use find the best (aka fastest) way around

I've never used it but just checking from Movies to Ak and the time is way off. I don't think it is real accurate--as it says 22 minutes...I don't think it takes but 12-15 minutes from the time you board the bus. I think it does depend on the routes the bus takes.

The ONLY time you have a long time is when you go from resort to resort. Now that is the pits! I've wasted up to 2 hours going from resort to resort during high times.

What ressies did you get? Thank you again for helping me out. if I can help you with the busing just give a yell. I'll be honest, I've got that system totally worked out...hahaha...we ALWAYS use the bus system. HAHAHA

Thanks for switching! I'll move it on the calendar right now so everyone can contact who they need to for the exchange!
 
Mrsdennison you are now swapping #1 and #4 with Artist

Artist you are now swapping #1 with MG61218 and #4 with jenok0426

dolfinjuls you are now recieving #2 from MouserMom09 and leaving #2 for JGoin

Now if everyone could contact the ppl before and after you in the swap that would be great!

Thanks again dolfinjuls for switching swaps with Artist to help Mrdennison out!

GREAT TEAMWORK!!

I am glad I could help especially since you have helped all of us :)

You sound like me. Spreadsheets all over the place.
POP's buses are great. The DD's and I stayed here last August and none of our bus rides were more than 20mins. It is nice because the buses do not share or stop at any of the other resorts. Also they were running lots of buses when we went so there was never a long wait to get to where you wanted to go. Once you ride and get the hang of it the busing system is really easy to use.
It is nice to be able to enjoy a glass of wine with dinner and not have to worry about driving a car back from the restaurant:thumbsup2
