*** The Official July 2014 thread, join us won't you? ***

I read the same thing on another person's website about the FP+ situation. They also said that many standby guests were having to wait in line for the next show due to the FP+ people. I wonder if this is because it just re-opened and after the newness wears off it won't matter or will this be the new reality?

I was wondering the same thing! I'm going to keep an eye on it. We weren't planning on using a FP+ for this, but if we're going to have to wait through 2 show times to get in through the standby line, we'll for SURE get a FP+ for it. It's one of my mom's favorites, so I want to be sure we get to see it!

We got our MB's today too. We had until May 29 to customize them and they're here already. I'm really surprised at the super fast shipping.

So Happy to say that we are PAID OFF!!! Doing the happy dance for that. Now just waiting for the single digit dance. We are working on our countdown calendar, finding things to make our shirts. When I get that done, I will post some pictures, but it might be a day or so for the calendar and a week or 2 for the shirts.

Ours said we had until June 17 to customize, but we got an email today that said it was our last chance to make changes and that our bands are getting ready to ship. Not sure if they'll wait and ship them after June 17 or not, but the email sounded like they were going to ship sooner!

It's about a month before your trip that they ship I think. Our first set should be on its way!

Wish we were. It looks really cool. You will have to report back on it.

Do magic bands come in the regular mail or do you have to sign for them?

I understand. It is very much on the pricey side. I hope it ends up being worth it! I'll definitely be checking back in once I do it. Hopefully going to it solo doesn't damper the experience any.

we booked on the 12th and can't wait. I heard a rumor that the end of the evening event is a sneak preview of the new Rivers of Life show. Sooo hoping that is true.

Us too! Planning to head to AK around 4:30 or so that evening - we need to make sure we get some rest in before we head over!

That would be amazing! We only have to wait until Saturday night to start seeing people's experiences! I'm glad we get to hear about it for a month before we experience it. It will really help me get even more excited!!!!

We are at AK that day already so we plan on doing a later lunch and going back to the resort for a break. We will be back closer to 6.

Makes total sense! I think if we plan to leave around 4:30pm from GF that gives us a cushion of time if we need more of a break. We are planning a morning at DHS with lunch at H&V - I think we are going to leave after lunch and get some rest. I'd love to get to AK in time for the 5pm dance party in Dinoland or to meet some of the characters who are around after 5pm. We'll see if we actually accomplish those things! If DD3 needs more of a nap to have a successful time :good vibes at Harambe Nights - a longer nap it will be!

Hello,
We are going june 26 to July 3rd, But I am considering modifying, I read that first week in July is really really busy. So maybe bumping up to June 24 to July 1 or so. Do any of you have experience with the first week in july right before the fourth? I would appreciate advice
Our daughter is a wheelchair user so the more crowded the harder it is for her.
Thank you
Lisa
