BrittBritt, I put your design at my boardHere!

UPDATE: Anybody who printed my front slip should reprint- I made a typo! (Two buts)

Sorry for hijacking the thread!

Great itinerary! My vote is also for CHH. They may put crack in the Anchor's Aweigh sandwiches; they're that good.

Goodness gracious...all this talk about binders!

Will have to go to allears to check out the menu again...

Oh, head over to MRYPPNS PTR (PTR for the Planning Obsessed) -- that is where the whole binder thing started (although, I believe the very first known references to binders can be traced back to Jordanyosh's PTR with his binder and Flat Winkers). Did you like my "scholarly" spin???

Great update!
We plan on Sunday: AK/Studios for dinner Monday: MK Tuesday: Studios Wednesday: MK/Whatever day Thursday: Epcot/Contemporary for Dinner Friday: Epcot/Studios for Lunch Saturday: Seeing if I can grab a few more MK hours

If you really want to see my binder designs:

So, there is some overlap with our plans...

Love the designs! Minnie is just too cute! I am headed over to your thread on the DISigns board next...

Like tuna salad. I can't imagine what it is that makes it so wonderful. I mean, I make tuna sandwiches at home all the time and they're just so-so. The bread is fabulous...
My DH is sitting next to me making fun of me for trying to describe over the internet the particular taste of this tuna sandwich. So, I'll stop here. He's relentless in his teasing!

Yummy! Sounds delicious!

Sometimes our DHs just don't understand about the DIS.

Hijack ANYTIME -- that is fine with me !

 

[IluvXU]

Your plan sounds great! Some wonderful eats!

Backlot Express- this was a gem of a lunch place.... just get there before Indiana Jones lets out! The hoard of people when we were eating- yikes!


Pecos Bill's or Columbia Harbor House my two MK favorites.... DH made us eat at Columbia House twice last trip!

Le Cellier yum-o

Hope to run into you all!

Yeah- I guess so! I'm sorry to say I probably won't have anything DIS on me. Family does not approve much of communicating over the internet However, you may see me decked in my DISigns with celery mary jane crocs on

Speaking of Mary Janes- I put them to the test today! I have an intense course of songs set up on the game Dance Dance Revolution. My feet were pretty darn comfortable in my Mary Janes when I did it. (And this course is about 1.2 miles of jogging- but I don't believe it)

Oh and thanks again for the compliments. I wasreally nervous about having people use what I make- but I got over it!

So, here I will be accosting women wearing celery mary janes, "Are you by chance MouseEarsForLife? Because I am Charleston Princess." Sounds like something out of a comedy about spies or discarded lines from Ghostbusters!

No blisters after Dance Dance Revolution? I am deathly afraid of blisters from my crocs. I don't want to hobble around in pain at WDW!

You have done a great job on your designs -- I noticed a lot of the other designers complimented yours .

Oh yes haven't you heard of the secret language of the ancient cult of DIS?

And nope- no blisters after DDR- and I wear my crocs barefoot. (I really couldn't bare socks unless I wear them as slippers) If it makes you feel better I wore Caymen? (normal) crocs to WDW a few years back. I had no problems at all with them from what I can remember.

I was super excited to have feedback from people. I have barely any free time but it's usually spent DIS-ing or disigning! (Crazy... no... I'm not crazy )

I am hoping we can time our visit to Backlot so we don't run into any crowds.

The more I hear about CHH, the more I think that will have to be our lunch place...everyone seems to like it! Plus, it's by the Haunted Mansion so maybe I can convince everyone to ride a second time .

Le Cellier: I cannot wait!

I just read your plans over on your PTR -- I think we will probably run into each other -- we tend to spend a lot of time at the pool (DD and DS like to swim; I like to lay comatose on a lounge chair) and in the food court during our afternoon "rests." Also, right now we plan on being at MK the same day (Monday).

 

[MouseEarsForLife]

Hey! A really good tip for crocs is Break them in before you go!
IMO the more you wear them the more comfortable they feel!

(For the side part)

(for the front clear pocket)

Very nice designs.......

 

[jordanyosh]

CCH is my favorite restaurant either CS or TS at MK. I have the ham sandwich..... The veggie chili is good too.

The theming makes this restaurant stand out from Cosmic Ray's. You'll see when I get to this part in my TR.......

Try to go during non peak periods......just a suggestion.

Your itinerary looks good, but long days....I take it you're not doing Hoppers.

If it would just warm up, I could. I am so ready for spring and warm weather, it's not even funny!

Another vote for CHH! It's about to acheive "definite" status on my itinerary! Can't wait to see pics of it on your TR!

Yeah, I always overplan our days -- I am a tadbit overambitious. During October, I stressed to the family that we were staying until 12:00 at MNSSHP. By 11:00, I was the one that wanted to leave, I was so tired!

Not doing park hoppers -- this is the first time ever, so it will be a new experience! It saved $200 not doing the hopper option (that's a lot of souvies).

Any thoughts on how to plan our Typhoon Lagoon day?

Oh, I LOVE that you put your Crocs through a test run of Dance Dance Revolution! I can just picture how that would go over in my house:

DH: "Errr...what are you doing?"
Me: (sweating and out of breath) "You know, just breaking in my shoes for Disney."

Oh trust me it gets the job done!
The one issue I had was just the way my feet are- my big toe typically rubs up against the the edge of a shoe. It's no big deal- and I credited it to the fact theres a lot of jumping in my "INTENSE COURSE"

Seriously though if you guys have a treadmill or whatever- take off the clothes hanging on it and start Croc-Walkin'!

I just realized I should probably call Disney Dining (again ) and add it to all the reservations that we have somebody with a severe peanut allergy.

Thanks for pimpin' out my PTR! All binders are welcome to post on my PTR.

IThe more I hear about CHH, the more I think that will have to be our lunch place...everyone seems to like it! Plus, it's by the Haunted Mansion so maybe I can convince everyone to ride a second time .

I suggest eating upstairs at CHH. I had the chicken strips...they were good but I should have gotten the tuna sandwich...so I've scheduled it in for our Nov 08 trip.

Treadmill? What is this treadmill of which you speak? I own no such creature. DD has Twister Dance -- would that work?

You better call and let them know about the peanut allergy! Scary stuff! I had a student a few years ago with a peanut allergy. We took the students down to Plains, GA where she broke out into hives just by being near a peanut processing plant !

Hey, I will pimp PTR/TRs anytime!

Okay, so we need to eat upstairs at CHH and order the tuna sandwich and veggie chili. Yum! Wish I could have ordered that for dinner tonight!

Yipes! We've only had one scare- on an international flight! Throat beginning to close, swelling, etc. I really should get on that. Think it's worth telling them that a member in our party will be arriving in a wheelchair (but can easily walk to a table/chair)?

Update: Well, apparently we aren't. Because we never do. Like that changes anything? I'll just have to make sure we have an epi-pen on hand!

Do you have these?

or these?

I love the Athens flip flops and have had no problem wearing them at Disney. Sometimes I do use Body Glide on the bottom of my feet though.

Scary about the flight!

I think Disney goes above and beyond to try to accomodate allergies -- I would let them know.

Yeah I'm still thinking about it..

Hey guess what- today my amazingly amazingtastic Croc Capri shoes came. They are so cute and- SO COMFORTABLE. Like more than normal Croc comfort. the backs are kinda raised but cushioned with great support!

 

[winkers]

Ok, so if I were to hypothetically break down and buy some crocs, would I get strange looks if I wore them to the gym????
