As far as I recall, there are no biometric scans for park hoppers. Simply a machine that you feed your ticket into (much like the fast pass machine). For the AP there might be something different, but I've never had an AP, so I don't know for sure. Tia might know more than I do.

So the tickets are more like the ones they used to have at WDW that families could use (unofficially) and not have to worry that they had the same ticket every time. That means if we got 2 3-day hoppers and Bob only went 2 days, I could go the 4th day using his ticket (again, unofficially). ;)
 
Jo - I think you need to come to my pity party and have some cake!;) Your day was worse than mine!!

Elin - Enjoy your landscape improvement project!:laughing:
 
Glynis is right, there are no biometric scans. They do sometimes ask you for a name to print on the back, but not always and my name has been on alot of other people's tickets since I was the one purchasing. APs have your picture on them, but no scan. The tickets are technically non-transferable, but like the old WDW tickets there isn't really a way to tell unless it is an AP.

Oh, I almost forgot though...DL tickets DO expire, at least as of a couple of years ago. I believe that all tickets expire 14 days from the first use. There is not non-expiration feature available.

Thanks, Tia. Then I think we will get 3-day hoppers. And they do expire... but I think it is 13 days, oddly enough.
 
Chanon & I are leaving a day early :rolleyes1 My flight lands at 4:18pm & I think Chanon will get there a few minutes earlier. It's real now with the flights booked :woohoo:
More than likely our nonstop flights will get switched to times we don't like by the time the trip rolls around. We'll just cross our fingers!
:yay: :yay: What time are you guys getting in? I get there on 10/18 at 11:50am.
I'm scheduled to arrive at 1:06pm. Which means I'll get off the plane about 1:35pm and on the Magical Express bus by 2:38pm and at the resort by 3:42pm. :rotfl:
Chanon and Janet - Congrats on the airfare!!!! What airline? Is it Airtran? What time do you leave on the 22nd?
Yep - Airtran! May 5 is the official date where they will be added to the "Participating Resort Airline Checkin"!!! Departing at 7:01pm! Last flight of the day out of ATL...let's be hopeful for no bad weather in ATL!
 

And with that I am finally caught up and need to go fix dinner. I'm thinking french toast as Mom and Rachel have to leave for Girl Scouts in about an hour and gosh darn it, french toast sounds good! :teeth:


Ramiro loves when I fix breakfast for dinner.
:love:
 
We love Norfleet mulch and Bob has a truck so that is not a problem. Wait till he finds out what we are doing this weekend... :rolleyes1
Sorry Bob!!! It's not my fault. Really!!!
 
Hey Jo! How's the humidity down there in Florida???
 
You ain't kidding!! I've just booked our return flight....it worked out with the best flights...even if I have to go to FL a day early!!

that is terrific, you three! If I didn't have to book airfare to CA for Bob and me this week, I would be jumping on the Airtran fares too for October. But right now that is not in the budget. Maybe by May 8, there will still be a few seats left at those great prices.
 
Wow you did have a not so good day :eek:

Sounds like a fun weekend though, enjoy!


Evening all.
Hope everyone had a better day than me.

1. Forgot my lunch @ home.
I keep my work keys, I.D, & hair clip in my lunch box.
2. Superviser isn't on-site today.
He leaves me a list for today.
Empty, clean, & replace bags in the poop pots. :scared1:
Power wash 2 buildings breezyways. :eek:
(each building has 3 floors & 2 towers)
He wants it completed TODAY.
1st he knows the pots make me gag.
2nd he knows I can't handle or set up the power washer by myself.
That thing weights more than I do.

So my Co-worker Sara & I do the pots together.
I helped her in the A.M do work orders.
After lunch we take power washer over to the 1st building.
I drive the golf cart will she hold onto the washer pulling it behind us.
Floater drives by us tells us "Your going to get hurt like that."
Does he stop & help us. H*** No. This is a young healthy 30 yr old man.
Superviser has him doing turns & I'm power washing. :confused3
What the H***.
So I get the hoses ect to the 3rd fl all set up.
It gets shutting off.
So I'm going up & down 3 flights of stairs fighting with this thing.
After 3 hours I only did 2 breezeways in 1 tower.
The wand fell apart, thank God,
I pity him if he jumps me tomorrow for not finishing.
I so will give him a piece of my mind.
Maybe even a good shift kick in the @**.
Now I feel better.:rotfl2:

At least I have great plans for Saturday. :cool1:
Myself & the gang are all going down to Tampa.
Busch Gardens for the day.
Packing up a picnic lunch,
Me, Ramiro, Co worker Sara, her 3 girls, her sister,niece, & nephew.
We all have a great time together.
The kids get alone together great.
We are surprising the kids.
 
Hey Jo! How's the humidity down there in Florida???

Not bad.
This week & weekend are looking good.
A little cool in the A.M & evening.
Day time has been around 70's & 80's.
Great weather for the parks.
I'm setting outside now in my p.j's.
 
You are all invited to my pity party. I am just feeling really discouraged tonight. The job situation isn't going the way I thought it would and I am worried about how it will turn out. DH thinks I shouldn't tell my bosses about any of my interviews from now on, but that wouldn't be very nice!

My friend saw Roly-Poly and his nanny at Gymboree today, but the nanny said she isn't involved in the process of them finding a new nanny and doesn't know whether the parents liked me or not. That sounds like a lie. She didn't say anything about me coming up there next week to meet her, so either she doesn't know or they plan to cancel. To make matters worse I have not heard a peep from the family. The mom said she would e-mail me when they talked with their current nanny and had a definite date that she wants to be finished with the job. Not only has she not sent me a theoretical "start date", she hasn't acknowledged that she got my contract. And they haven't called any of my references. This is really NOT going well at all.:guilty:

The stupid agency DID call my references, but they haven't asked me to go on a single interview. That supports my theory that even though I have now jumped through all but 2 hoops (TB test and "Nanny Training" where they teach the girls not to wear a tube top and Daisy Dukes to an interview) they have no intention of sending me out to meet any families. They obviously prefer to place nannies who are barely old enough to be without a nanny to supervise THEM!

And I am still mad about the counterfeit ebay pins.:mad:

It has been raining all day, Dadboss was 30 minutes late AGAIN (he just did that to me on Friday) and I am in a big snit. So there you have it!

:hug: Elizabeth! I'm sorry that things are not looking up on the new job. Loads of :wizard: that it will still work out.
 
Not bad.
This week & weekend are looking good.
A little cool in the A.M & evening.
Day time has been around 70's & 80's.

I'm setting outside now in my p.j's.
Sounds delightful. Thanks.
 
Oh I hope not, but I won't fret over it. We are going to Disney :yay:

More than likely our nonstop flights will get switched to times we don't like by the time the trip rolls around. We'll just cross our fingers!

:rotfl: :rotfl:

I'm scheduled to arrive at 1:06pm. Which means I'll get off the plane about 1:35pm and on the Magical Express bus by 2:38pm and at the resort by 3:42pm. :rotfl:

Hmmm, I better stash some extra cash just in case we need to stay the night in Atlanta. I don't want to sleep at the airport :laughing:

Yep - Airtran! May 5 is the official date where they will be added to the "Participating Resort Airline Checkin"!!! Departing at 7:01pm! Last flight of the day out of ATL...let's be hopeful for no bad weather in ATL!
 
I didn't book our flights for Oct. last year till June. You will be fine & they will have another sale :thumbsup2


that is terrific, you three! If I didn't have to book airfare to CA for Bob and me this week, I would be jumping on the Airtran fares too for October. But right now that is not in the budget. Maybe by May 8, there will still be a few seats left at those great prices.
 
Night everyone!

It is storming now, so time to get off the computer. Talk with you all tomorrow!
