The could we?? should we?? PTR **12/9 **Home from WDW**

Last year when hours first came out there was only a couple showings like now but then they added F! almost every night.

My DHS day last year wasn't a F! night but we ended up seeing it

That is what I had noticed... I was really happy with my schedule being the way it was, and I guess I could just add park hoppers to be able to go see F! if it ends up not being on one of my HS days...

and you could wait till you get there to add the hoppers and wait and see but I think they will add shows

I think I have the schedule in a way that I like now... Of course, that can change in the next 10 minutes...

But you are exactly right, I will wait until we get there and add park hopping if we need it...

So, today I decide to check up on our airfare...

I check the flight to Orlando and all is well, besides the fact that it has gone WAY up in price...

I check the flight home.... Hey, wait.... Where is our flight home???

They cancelled that flight and had rescheduled us...

Original flight was departing at 6, had a layover in Minnesota and got us into Portland at 11

New flight was departing at 3:40 arriving in Minneapolis at 6:15, had us departing there at 5:30 and landing in Portland at 9something...

Okay, did anyone notice that???

How are we going to depart Minneapolis at 5:30 when we are not landing until 6:15???

SO I called and told them that obviously will not work!!

I was able to get us switched to a flight that goes out at 5:15pm... We have a layover in Utah and we get home around 10:45...

So that is flight change #1... We will see how many we end up with!!

You're not flying AirSuckyTran are you?? I put up with 2 of those changes and bagged them. What a crock that airlines can pull that sort of crap.

Nope... We are flying Delta... I just kinda roll with the punches normally but when they have me on flights that I obviously can't make... I mean seriously???

And they are pretty easy to call up and they will change it to the flight I ask for...

I figure it will happen at least once or twice more before we leave... And now I know why I am so OCD about checking the flights a few times per week...

I've never heard of such an inane thing happening. You've gotta wonder where the programmer got his high school diploma from on that one.

To give AirSuckyTran credit, they did send my e-mails each time they screwed me. But to give up a WHOLE day at Disney was just NOT going to happen. I switched out to JetBlue.

Umm, my vote is he got it out of the cracker jack box... Same place my Dad swears my grandma got her driver's license...

I didn't receive anything from Delta!!

I told the girl on the phone that she couldn't take away Disney time... She didn't say anything...

Is it bad that I had a very hard time sleeping last night with the park hours being out?? I swear sometimes I think I need therapy from a certified Disney specialist...

Okay, I need therapy too. Since it was cold and windy and rainy today and snow is expected tomorrow - I watched videos about DVC and WDW vacations today just to get through the afternoon!

I can't believe they changed your flights to something you can't do and don't even bother to notify you. Oh, Delta? I can believe it - they are famous for overselling their seats and then when they get you to the gate, offering free flights to people who will give up their seats. Glad you checked. Your trip is getting close!

The weather was crazy yesterday...

Yeah I am not surprised about flight changes... I just always tell myself it will happen so just be ready for it... And as long as I can get something close to what I had, I am okay with it...

Now if they change my PDX to MCO flights I will not be pleased... I want to get there as early as possible...

I got an email that the Disney logo ringer tees are 25% off right now...

I am so tempted to buy a set...

I still have to take pics of the 6 I bought a month or so ago, plus I have another 6 on the way now...

So if I do order a set of the logo ones then Terry and I will each have 7 shirts... I am thinking that will be enough for our 9 night stay...

 

[winkers]

I'm back.......

 

[oregonmommyof2]

I'm back.......

So glad you made it home safely!!!

I bet the kids were happy to see Mom!!!

 

[oregonmommyof2]

We are down to 9 days until we make ADR's!!!



I am going to really try and get an update in today... With a bunch of randomness!!!

 

[oregonmommyof2]

I figured since I have had these sitting her for weeks I had better take the pics and show them off!!

I am a dork who likes to have all new clothes for vacations...

I ordered Terry and I each 3 shirts...

Here are mine...

And here are Terry's...

Front of one...

And the back...

I ordered more last week and they will be arriving tomorrow actually, so I will have to put those up soon!!!

 

[oregonmommyof2]

Oh, and another update... We are upgrading to DxDP!!! We were wanting to try a few 2 TS meals so we did the math and for us it made more sense to upgrade...

I will be back in a few with the ADR and park schedule...

Hey! I know all about adjusting to the graveyard shift.....Eric just started about 2 weeks ago! It's rough! Trying to keep AJ quiet is a full time job! Hope all is well!

 

[oregonmommyof2]

Last night we went to the Tim McGraw/Lady Antebellum concert in Portland...

Terry took a ton of pics so once they have been edited he will post some...

Anyway, I never wear make up... Like maybe once or twice a year at best... Well, I decide to put make up on last night...

I woke up this morning and noticed my face is covered in hives!

It is not attractive in the slightest...

It hurts too!!

So now I sit, with calamine lotion and a cold compress on my poor face...

 

[Pyrate_Pryncess]

I fully expect to see puffy, pink dotted skin on FB within the hour......


Dude, being the "hive" expert that I am, I can relate. They freakin suck! Im glad you had a good time at the concert last night!

I hope your face feels better soon!!! Take some Benedryl, liquid is best!
