Thanks for the organization! We have only 1 ressie this year, (going all QS) but would love to see us on the list.

There is a chocolate and peanut butter cupcake with my name on it at Starring Rolls, that's kind of like an ADR in my mind.

40 DAYS!!!!!!!



I'm going crazy lol. I've run out of things to plan so now I just want to keep buying things for the trip LOL

I just got some custom disney cooling scarves off of etsy. Just in case we need a little something extra to beat the heat. My MIL and I both got Tinkerbell, hubby and DD got Mickey mouse and my FIL got pirates lol. and they were only $6 a piece

I still need to get myself some t shirts.

But it seems the last two weeks we have been hemorrhaging money. things keep BREAKING around the house. I hope this trend passes soon

What are some things you pack/take with you to WDW that isn't on the normal packing lists or something that just makes your life easier or you can't live without? I'm getting our packing list together and I'm even going to bust the suite cases out tonight.

22 days to go!!!

Haven't checked the "normal packing list", but I always pack a multi plug strip and an extention cord.

I always bring a nightlight with me. I cant sleep with the TV on, and once we turn off the TV, it is pitch black. Im talking, you cant see your fingers an inch in front of you black. So to prevent tripping and walking into things when we have to use the bathroom at night, a nightlight works best.

The ADRs are on page 191 of this thread, but to find them faster L-Harper was nice enough to link them to the first page of the thread so you can click on it anytime from there and it will take you directly to the link. I hope that helps.

Awesome thanks! I knew I was missing something!

 

[sparks19]

We always bring a fan of some sort. something to make a little white noise in the room.

 

[anjalee6]

Everyone is either fixed, updated, or added. Boy, it takes forever on my iPad, but I felt bad kicking my son off the computer so mommy could work on the DIS

We always bring a night light for the kids too. It seems to make them more comfortable.

I don't know if this is on a normal packing list, but we always bring tweezers and nail clippers. The kids always seem to either get a splinter or their nails seem to grow 8 ft on vacation. These always come in handy.

We bring our rechargeable battery charger so we can recharge game systems, cameras, mister fans, while we are there. Everything always runs out of batteries.

And since I pack everything in ziploc bags, I bring extras for everything from wet bathing suits, to food, etc.

Hi there!
We are two gals (42 and 45) who are taking on the World without the husbands and kids this trip!!! Eating our way through on the DxDP and staying at the BWV. Think of us as Lucy and Ethel, Laverne and Shirley, or Thelma and Louise (oh, wait, that one doesn't end too well!!!! )

Would anyone like to try to share an Illuminations Cruise on Wednesday, 9/7?

I had placed a post on the Wishes/Illuminations Cruise thread, but, no one seems to want our company over there, so, I thought I'd post this here!

Not sure of the cost or even availability, but, I thought I'd ask before doing some un-necessary planning.

That sounds like such a good time. i am going to have to convince my bff to do this sometime

I think the pps have covered some of my must haves: power strips, ziploc bags, and mister fans. I also add a pop up laundry hamper (and detergent if you'll wash clothes) and a zip ID with lanyard to keep everything close at hand. I have a Vera Bradley that I like for keeping my vitals close at hand!

 

[KELLY]

Ok I bought 2 of those mister fans for the girls at walmart. I think I paid 15.00 for 2 of them. Anyway it just took me 10 minutes to figure out how to get them to work. I had to pull the fan part off a bit to get them to work.

Suitcases are on the bed. Going to add my ME tags to the cases and get some packing hopefully done the next couple of days.

 

[ShhhQ]

The most vital thing on our list is SUNSCREEN.... we forgot to pack it in 2008 and really paid the price!!!
I ended up with sun poisoning and a sunburn, before I broke down and spent money on the expensive stuff in one of the gift shops!!!

Lesson Learned!!

 

[DonnaBoo]

If you wear glasses/contacts or false teeth or hearing aid, and you have an extra pair/set bring it with you. You never know when you'll need them. Nothing worse than losing your false teeth/glasses/hearing aid on space mountain...and please don't think I am making a joke of this (I'm not). Or bring a copy of the prescription so you can get a repacement.
