I haven't received our DME tags. When should I call to follow up?

I was told that some aren't sent out until 30 days now. I have 34 days and just received mine (naturally, much of the info in there is not correct).

We have "Cinderella" licenses here. You get it at 17 but can only drive during certain hours and can not have more than 1 non family member in the car. (its somethig like that i may not have the details %100 correct) Then when you are 18 it's a normal one.

Thanks. I shall impatiently wait I'm off to plan our park days. Oh, I saw that Marge is no longer with Wegoshop...I'm thinking I will go with garden grocers(very positive feedback), even though their prices are SO HIGH.

I've been a lurker on these November boards and I'm sure I've missed many postings but is anyone going to US on your trip. We are going to Disney for 10 days and my DD16 wants to go there so bad. DD21 (just turned on Thursday), DH and myself really aren't in to it. I'm also now concerned it will be even more of a crowd because Friday the 19th the movie is released and we wanted to go that following Sunday. To make matters more complicated DH has friends in Fl that refuse to come to Disney but will meet us in US. I would rather save the money and do something in Disney but to keep DD16 happy seems to be a challenge. She wanted 2 days in AK, we have 1 planned. She wanted to see main street snow but I really dont' want to do the MVMCP because I really didn't think it was worth it last time. I do have dinner plans at 650 in MK on a party day so on the way out we should be able to see it. Also anyone that has gone have they used the 1 day 2 park transfer option? I'm thinking that is the best deal. Thanks for any input just one of those not convinced things yet but really want the DD16 to be happy.

We're doing just one day at US-IOA. The kids REALLY want to see the new Harry Potter section (OK... who am I kidding... so do I!) so we're planning a day there. We arrive late on thursday (thanksgiving day) and our FD package doesn't start 'til Saturday and there was no avaliability at AKL til then anyway... so we're staying at ASMo Thurs and Fri nights and going to Universal on Friday during the day. I think it will probably be pretty corwded since it's the day after Thanksgiving, but we'll make it work. We've always done Disney only... so this is a first for us!

[RobinHoodGirl]

Just spent the day walking around NYC... man I and roommates need better shoes for our trip! We're planning shoe shopping next weekend.

Oh and we have One Month and One Day!

Starting Monday the construction paper chain count down can start!

 

[cyndiloveswalt]

We are going to US on Tues morning (the 23rd) just to see HP. My sister has a friend who works there and she is getting us a couple of free passes and fast passes for the day, otherwise I probably would have waited until next year.
I decided today that I would like to bring down a little x mas tree and disney decorations so I started working on it today. We made really cute beaded garland. I made Mickey beads with 1 larger and 2 smaller black beads and then used clear, red and green beads. It came out really cute- I'll try to post some pics.

My Ds12 just ran up the stairs yelling "get off the disney forum!" Apparently his father bet him a dollar that I was on the site and he didn't want to lose, too bad for him my DH knows me so well!

Cyndi - I've been hearing "Are you on the DISboards AGAIN????" a lot lately.

Today I started gathering together all the little things I bought just for the trip: Tide pen, travel-sized shampoos, conditioners, toothpastes (got extras when my DS and I had our teeth cleaned last week), etc. I'm not ready to bring up the suitcases yet, but I'm going to start on the non-clothing items now. I also want to start making my tie-dye t-shirts soon, but this weekend the weather is just too nice to stay indoors!

 

[alexensmom]

I tie dyed shirts and pillowcases this week. Just a few more to do. DD wants several for Christmas gifts. Continuing to pack toiletries for the three of us (DH is on his own .) REALLY need to finish our countdown calendar this weekend. Started finalizing touring plans. Its been a very productive week.

49 days! I cant wait!!! We are leaving for Virginia the day before Thanksgiving and then driving down to Fla the 26th. We have reservations at a hotel in Orlando for that evening. We'll get there around 6pm, eat near the hotel and turn in early. My hope is to get to WL by 9am on Saturday to check in, grab tickets and head to MK. Im not planning on touring MK for the day because it will be crazy busy, but I just cant wait to see the castle. It will be DS first trip there so we will just soak in the atmosphere alittle while and then head to Epcot. We didnt see any of WS last year so we will be wandering the area, and hitting Le Cellier for an early dinner.

 

[shinysparklybubbles]

So excited!!!! Our newly redone Disney store is opening 11/2!!! I am so excited! Needless to say DS and I will be there bright and early to wait in line! On my invite it says there is a special pin for Disney Visa card holders! I can't wait to go!!!
