These Are The MAYS of our Lives- The MAYers, Part VI

[Momof2Disneyboys]

Hi!! Why did they stop that? I am doing one with the 3 couples I am going with.

Hi Huggie!

I don't know. . . I guess they stopped all things that involve money changing hands - the photopass share, the fridge swaps, etc.

But they still have the boards for renting DVC points. . . .

Thank you for that link HB - I think my wife and I would enjoy doing that.

I did the fridge swap for this trip

I did the fridge swap for this trip

Did you pay for it or get it for free? They said awhile back they were only letting the swap threads go on if they were free. . .

I know people are still doing the photopass share, just in private.

Here is the review Sea. I think they are stopping in in June. But hopefully they will bring it back. Yes, you get reserved seating in Tomorrowland Noodleland Terrace.

The swap is free.

Morning all......

How do people do the photopass in secret.... hmmm... i wonder won't the mods delete the thread right away.... i guess i have to look at other boards to find one..... but what can you do....

I have that big exam today in my anatomy class....wish me luck.... off to school will check in later.....

Where are you guys?????????

 

[Momof2Disneyboys]

Morning Mari! I'm here. I didn't get called into work today. Not sure what to do with myself since I cleaned everything in this house yesterday!

I think people are setting up photopass shares in PM's with people they know are going around the same time as them. . .

We were in a photopass share in Jan 2009, but by our Nov 2009 trip the DIS had stopped the threads. . . We didn't know anyone else going around our dates, so we didn't get the photopass. . . I like it, but I'd never pay $100 for it.

Good luck with your exam!!

Hello Mayers!

Last weekend we were on the DL train and caught the fireworks from the Toontown Depot Station. DL launches the fireworks right behind TT, which is about 250 feet away from the depot.

It was very loud back there, but it was fun to watch.

Enjoy the clip!

Mari There was a Facebook page for Photopass sharing if you're on there. I know it's a risk getting into one with strangers. I felt comfy doing it because most of the people were Snowbirds that I met here on the DIS the year before.

Any MAYers want in on one next May with me?

Ok - remember that Caribbean cruise we took in November? My BIL and sister were interviewed on the ship for a promotion for Princess cruises.

Yesterday, they posted up the video clip.

Mari, I heard there is a 50 credit for photopass. I am going to call and let you know. That way you would only spend 45 dollars

 

[Monny2AE]

Mari- I'm crossing my fingers you get a great grade! Hope you enjoyed your day off. I'm sure you needed it. Anatomy- blech!

Jo- How are the plans going for you? All packed yet?

May 2011? Maybe so...what are your dates again?

We're thinking May 6-14 right now. It depends though. If we can get cheaper airfare if we fly weekdays vs. weekends we may change it by a few days. We should all go next May and have a MAYer meet!!!! We'd definitely save money on a photopass share. Come on.... you know you all want to!!!!

Huggie - let me know what you find out.....
