well, I did it

I ordered my 2004 Savvy Soho DX Stroller from Combi.

Anyone else have it? The reviews I read were good and it looks like a nice stroller. I'm buying this in case my 4 yr old wants to ride instead of walk. He'll probably be just under the max weight and is very tall (45 inches now) I figure it would bring a good resale value ? I'm a big fan of the Jeep brand strollers so how does this compare ?

I also called and put everyone's name on their rooms ( all 11 of us) and signed up my MIL and Uncle and his family for the Magical Express. The only downside is that I can't check in for all rooms anymore and my girls have to wait for my MIL to show up before they can get into their room. I guess it makes it easier to charge to your own room key and make sure it goes to the right person.

Does everyone get a room key? My kids don't need it at all since they won't be in the rooms alone or leaving alone. Their tickets aren't on the keys either since I bought Park Hoppers for all in December. Can I opt not to get them one? I'd hate to have to keep track of so many keys. Also do they have room numbers on them or names?

I'm very excited about my first trip, Can you tell??

Oh, and my plans are still kind of messed up after factoring in EMH and changing our MNSSHP date to Tuesday instead of Sunday night. Any insiders know when the tickets will be on sale ? I asked yesterday but was told that they didn't know yet.

All the room keys have names on them now. They use them for EMH in the morning you cant get in unless you have a key. At night you need the key for your wristband.

Your stroller looks very nice, but... My sister has a collection of expensive strollers. On our trip with her and our very tall three-year-old niece last year, I suggested she just bring an umbrella stroller. It was fine. We put a big, bright name tag on it and used it everywhere. It was easy and quick to carry on and off buses and monorails. There was no need to do "expensive stroller guard duty". Every ride usually had a forrest of similar strollers, and it was always there when we got back to it. It also took up very little space in shops and restaurants. People didn't have to maneuver around it as much. We folded it up when we were eating or on transportation. It was alway there when my niece needed it, but easy to handle when she didn't.

Honestly, it was much, MUCH nicer than dealing with one of the bigger, bulkier models.

Actually this is an umbrella stroller, it just reclines and has a basket. It was cheap along the lines of most strollers of this quality. we won't have guard duty since there is not any ride that everyone will want to go on anyways. Most umbrella strolers won't accomodate a larger child so I had to pay a little more for one that does. My 18 month old barely fts in the umbrella stroller we have since it's so narrow and his feet are already on the strap underneath. My 4 yr old does not fit in ours at all right now.

Thanks! Forgot about that. Oh well, guess I can't even leave the extra's hidden in the room.

You could use the room safe.

I've had 2 different combis and they can't be beat for travel - lightweight and extremely compact. Enjoy!

That's what I was thinking but then I want have them for the EMH bracelets. So it looks like they'll be carried around with me.
