Booked my airfare this morning! This will be our first time flying on an airline other than Delta! I booked Southwest because the flight itself was a little more expensive but they don't charge for checked bags. We normally only check one each on the way down, but I usually check at least one more on the way back for souvenirs and stuff and I didn't want to have to pay an additional fee. I can't believe Delta charges $15 for the first bag and the $25 for each additional! So we booked Southwest for like $540 R/T for the both of us! Now if my ticker would just move a little faster!

I am so excited!
I am starting my vaca in september, but finishing in october!

I am going absolutely insane waiting for October hours. My 90+10 day is July 5 and I have no idea what to plan. I really need to know when Spectro and Wishes are going to be. We are skipping Fantasmic as I think it will frighten my DD2 1/2. This is torture!

We are spending 10/1-10/4 at Pop for free dining then moving over to the BCV from 10/4-10/7 and staying on our DVC points. I'm dreading making ADR's under the new system and dealing with:

1) we have a split stay so I have to go thru the process 2 times
2) the second stay is on DVC points and the system isn't recognizing DVC reservation numbers
3) I can start making reservations this Friday and the lack of a calendar is driving me crazy
4) I've been playing with the online ADR system and no matter what day/time I select I cannot get a single Le Cellier reservation to display as being available -- it is a MUST DO for by DH

 

[Vility]

I just booked all my ADR!!!!!!!!!

[mickeystoontown]

Good morning! For all of you staying at Pop Century and celebrating something special, please come join our ever growing Pop Century Countdown: What Will You Celebrate? thread. Here's the link: http://www.disboards.com/showthread....9#post29190139

And, if you need something to help you pass the time until your next Disney vacation rolls around, check out my trip report. We had a lots of things happen last trip....stuck on ride, a missing tooth, a driveby scooter accident and more. The link is in my signature.

Right! No EMH at the MK. Party is from 7-12.

Still no hours for October!!

 

[My2Qtz0205]

Hours have been posted! Check on the Official October 2009 thread for the link.

Here is what I have planned:

The party includes me (33), DH (34), DS (will turn 7 on our trip), DD (3 1/2), my mom, my in-laws, my BIL (32), and my SIL (30-ish).

Our flight arrives at noon on Friday the 16th. Our in-laws are driving and will arrive the 15th, so they will open up the house for us.

Fri., 16th: Arrive, grocery shop, go to Epcot for Illuminations
Sa., 17th: CRT Breakfast, MK
Sun., 18th: DHS, MNSSHP
Mo., 19th: Epcot World Showcase
Tu., 20th: AK, late dinner for DH & I at Cali Grill
W., 21st: Epcot Future World
Th., 22nd: MK, DS's bday dinner at Chef Mickey's, DTD for birthday shopping
Fri., 23rd: Depart on 8am flight

We do plan on taking midday breaks back at the house. I know the 22nd is not optimal for MK because of AM EMH, but it is DS's birthday, and I can't imagine spending it at any other park (especially since it will be our last day!)

[amberg@eastlink.ca]

cant answer you on the party, not doing it. however dh and i ate at cp in 05 with no kids and had a blast!!! im a huge pooh fanatic! for you wifes bday why dont you check out the cake chatter thread on here? did you know disney will custom make cakes? i didnt and will be surprising dh wiht an anniversary cake(our tenth) on our last nite. the cakes start at 6 inch which i think are a generic premade one with no extras or you can go up to 8 inches to start to customize it.
