Trip Report "We're All Mad Here" PTR - Feb '15. UPDATED 14/2/15!

[RoseBug]

Fab ADR's - similar to ours!

Snow boots were our saviour on the last trip, even though we had no snow - they just kept Rosebug totally snug, which is really important now we know she feels the cold more! We got her new ones (same as last year) from SportsDirect for £16. She loves them and would wear them for school if she could!

Love all your purchases! I need to get buying, not long left for us....

:-D
I said to my mam the other day that she could go somewhere else for lunch herself if she didn't like the look of the ADC menu but I think she'll probably want to see the kids interact with the princesses

1 month tomorrow! Am starting to sort out my funds. This was supposed to be a budget trip! But I'm Trying to save as much as I can before we go for cocktails and the like! Not easy when your boiler breaks down during the coldest spell we've had all winter! grrrrr! all sorted now but down lots of €€€ :-(

To Do:

- Find the boys lanyards and pins! found mind but theirs are missing.

- buy some pins for trading. Might buy some lanyards on eBay for my nieces.

- book a check-in bag for the flights

- get some thermal gear

- finish my Minnie Mouse hat. I've started crocheting a Minnie hat for myself but I've run out of black wool! need to reassess the colours as I can't remember where I bought the black!

- find a nail artist to do my nails and book an appointment.

- sort through the boys clothes to see what *warm* Disney gear they have.

- make luggage tags

- print off timetables for the PEPS bus and RER.

Also got these neck warmers/cowls to go with the hats:


I ordered Princess Lanyards for my two nieces:


And these ones for my Mam and sister:


I don't think they'll be bothered about pin collecting or trading, but I thought they would be handy for keeping the APs close to hand.

Oh my!!! I want that Stitch hat!!! I will be able to spot you guys a mile off in those hats! So if you see a crazy woman waving with a ginger viking and a little princess, run! ;-)

And you just reminded me that I need thermal leggings etc.

 

[dhidra]

Lol we'll be easy to spot alright! Really need to get my **** in gear for my own hat.

 

[dhidra]

Fingers crossed you find the other one soon. x I couldn't find Catherine's before our Christmas trip and I haven't looked since, have been too busy. She got a few pins in her christmas stocking on top of the pixie dust 6 pins she was given by City Hall on our last evening so I'm dying to add them to her lanyard. x

 

[dhidra]

It's more the pins I'm concerned about than the lanyard really! can pick up another one while we're there if needs be. although I'm making up little gift bags for the kids for the plane so would like to have it to put in there.
out shopping for bits at the moment. just stopped for a cuppa. will post photos later!

Understand completely. As you're out and about - you may be aware but subway have Mickey / Minnie bags and gifts with their kids meals. I got 2 yesterday and will collect all 6 which will then be goody bags for the family trip with other stuff added.
Look forward to pics. x

 

[dhidra]

Ah feck it! I had seen that on FB but never thought to go to subway today! was near it and all! Might pop in at the weekend!

 

[dhidra]

11 days to go!
Measured DS2 and checked the height requirements - he's now talk enough for Star Tours (he'll be delighted as he loves Star Wars), BTM (he may not be so keen on that) and ToT (Definitely won't be doing that one! DS1 is still scarred from it!)
