~ About six of those cheap $0.99, disposable ponchos that are about the size of a deck of cards from Target. Great for while waiting for a parade, or Kali River ride...lol.

~ The smallest, collapsable umbrella for quick rain showers.

~ Several disposable cameras with flash, and several Snapfish mailers to have film developed and put on internet.

~ Buy two pairs of Crosstrainers by Brooks called the Beast. They are the best support for big old guys like me.

~ Buy several Thorlo socks, but I don't know what kind.

~ Bring my 3-foot fiber-optic christmas tree and christmas lights.

~ Bring a small pen light flashlight for the dark nights and emergencies.

~ Bring a cooler for ice.

~ Bring my WebTV computer for everyone to send e-mails back home or receive messages or to get on-line with the DISboards.(and keyboard, A/V cables, remote, and batteries.

~ Bring my Illuminations C.D. and small boombox for room music.

~ Laundry bag, detergent, etc..

~ My new Verizon Free-up prepaid Cell Phone to keep in contact.

~ My DIS-CON-I Dan Murphy-type hat...lol.

~ Xerox copies of my credit cards, insurance card, medical card, WDW annual pass with all the 800 numbers to call in case my wallet is lost.

~ Waist pack.

What are some of the things that I am forgetting?

What are some of the things that you are going to pack?

Yes, I'm bored.

We could make a packing list?

I'll post a list on the second post below this one.

 
My cell phone AND the charger for it. Gotta be able to find people and give DS a call every night....(i know it's "sappy" but I miss him when I'm there)
Corinne
 

Oh...Corienne! I forgot to list my cell phone charger. Thank you so much. That would be terrible if I forgot my charger.

I gotta have my big dogs.

That's why I need to remember to bring a laundry bag.

John...Maybe we should have a Laundramat Washing Clothes Day DIS mini-meet?

I'll host that one. I just bought one of those "flip and fold" gadgets from Target. Folding clothes has never been so much fun...lol.
 
We have laundry facilities over at the Beach Club Villas. I think that a laundry DISmeet is a good idea. I run it past Barb. :)
 
OK OK what are Big Dogs?? Is it coz I'm a woman or a Brit that I have no idea what you 2 are harping on about.

Ray - you expecting rain - did it rain last year?

Well obviously I need to remember to pack the head gear for certain meets.
 
Thanks for clearing that up for me - I promised not to be influenced by the ladies on this story - you can tell me all about it when I get to DISCon;)

LOL I was gonna put over breakfast but you know how talk starts on these threads :)
 
Reminder to self....you will know where Ray has his spot for the parade as his rain ponchos will have it marked at 6am!!!!!

ROFLMBO!!!!

Sorry Ray - I couldn't resist!!!!

A Pen!!! I can't go to Disney without a pen....you just never know when you'll need it!
 
Chris....I always grab the pen from my room as soon as I check in and put it in my purse! (I've never stayed at the Swan before, but I am figuring that they have pens in the room!)

Ray and John......I think that a Laundry meet is GREAT!!!! I am thinking somewhere around the 6th or so....we could all do breakfest ...or something!! We could even co-ordinate who brings Laundry stuff!!!....I'll bring the Fabric Softener sheets!!!
I refuse to pack for more than a week no matter how long I am gone for.

FSam....okay That link shows you what BIG Dogd are....but you don't have the real explanation yet!!!;)

I don't think we should make this laundy doingan "unofficial mini meet".....we'll just all happen to be there at the same time!!!

Corinne
 
ROTFLMBO!!!!!!!! John, that is hysterical!!!!!:p :p :p BIG DOGS!!!!!!!!!!! I may just have to go get me some!!!!!!! :tongue:

I guess we could have a laundry mini meet. (ugh) I pack for about a week no matter what, too. So I will either need to do laundry or use the Corinne method-buy new stuff. :teeth: :teeth:
 
I will have to pass on the laundry meet (I refuse to wash & fold my underwear in presence of DISers :o :p ) I will opt to over-pack instead ;)

re: BigDogs....now THIS is funny, I must get these for my kids :)
