In case anyone is interested, I changed our reservation for Ohana on Saturday June 4. Our new time is 5:30, so this means that there is an 8:50 time available. DW will be happy now!

Only problem is you had a reservation at Ohana at a perfect time for wishes on the beach!

I will be looking for it

I love the Poly, we have had many wonderful vacations there. Unfortunately, last year it was just really bad for us. This year we are switching to CSR, sometimes I think a change of scenery is good.

BTW-big Thanks to you for posting directions on how to change links into a title.

Good morning all! I think I got all of my to do list completed yesterday. I reallly need to start actually packing today. I've put it off long enough....

 

[teachermommy78]

Finished my autograph book. I found an old Bo Bunny binder in my scrapbook stash, and I used patterns of coordinating paper for the inside. The characters can sign on the right, and I'll scrapbook a picture of the moment on the left. You can't tell, but the yellow surrounding the words is glitter--I love sparkle, and the Mickey hand is actually a drawer knob.

Next on the list: Ship boxes (sunscreen is heavy!) and check-in tomorrow!!!

That is beautiful! You did a great job!

Disney tomorrow, the day is finally here.
You're all packed and ready; now it's time to cheer.
Hope your trip is merry and filled with special things.
And that you are surrounded with the magic that Disney brings! ​

[FONT="Centur!???(66767776&8y Gothic"]Have a great trip everyone that is leaving tomorrow. Safe travels and be sure to report back to us when you return. [/FONT]

Single Digit Dance Day!!!!

​

Have an awesome trip!!!

We started packing last night. I had to run out and buy another pair of shorts.

Here's my to do list for today/tomorrow:

• 
  Tom hair cut
  Buy children's Tylenol, more razors
  Get dresses from Mom
  organize snack basket
  get suitcases from basement
  start putting stuff in said suitcases

That's all I can think of for now. I dreamed of Disney all night!!

So fun! While this time is stressful, it's also fun!

I am. A sweet lil' surprise due Dec. 9th. So excited, but still reeling from the surprise.

Aw! Congrats!

I also dreamed of Disney all night- that we were LATE for rope drop at HS. Now this did happen to us in October, thanks to the POR buses, so I pray this doesn't

Congrats on your pregnancy! We are hoping for a Disney surprise!

I hate those stressful Disney dreams!

I don't know why I just checked the 15 day forecast for disney, that was silly. Now I know that three of the days that we're down there are forcasted to have 99 degree highs!!! I expected it but its a whole other thing to see it written down!

That's hot...BUT in my experience with June, you tend to be so distracted by disney that the heat becomes a minor inconvenience. AND about a month after you return home you don't remember how hot it was!

Great Pre-trip report!! Looks like you are going to have a blast!! I like your split stay/not split stay idea! I may do that next year.. Premium plan one day = two in reality! Use the benefits the day of check in and until midnight the day you check out! Brilliant, oh seasoned veteran! do you have to check out to check back in? If so do you keep both sets of KTTW? Use one set for premium and the other for deluxe dining the day to check out/in?

We will have to check out and back in-I will actually have 3 check ins, lol. One of my concerns has been having to move rooms-I really don't want to have to pack up and move each time. Our reservations are linked,but I was advised to not do online check in because the computer now assigns rooms and may not pick that up. I was told that they would do their best to keep us in the same room, but as with all room requests that is not guaranteed.

Yes, we will also have multiple sets of KTTW cards. Thank goodness they have dates printed on them, but just in case I'll have a sharpie to mark my cards.

And as much as I would like to take the credit for that brilliant Premium day strategy, I actually learned it..where else... here on the Dis. There is a monster thread about it over on the Resort board under the Discount Codes sub forum.

We do something like that. We get a room only for the last night that we are there to take advantage of our meal plan over longer days and to use our park tickets until midnight on the last day. It works out great. We do have to remember which key is what, but it works out fine. We usually do another resort (just to check it our for the next trip to see if it's something we want to do in the future). This year we are doing Kidani for most of the trip and then CR for two days at the end. We have done Poly and loved it, but wanted to take advantage of a discount code and the rates were better at CR so we are bouncing over there for the last 2 days. We will see how it goes. Two nights room only.
