Wow! we could've used that...

I pack all my lightsticks and flashing pins. You can get some great Disney ones online really cheap. Tattoos are great for the kids too.

Water camera, disposable ones for the kids.

The one thing that is a must to do before is to write out labels with friends/families addresses for post cards. Also bring stamps. The last thing you want to worry about is waiting in line for stamps.

Where can you find Disney Tattoos? I want to take items with me for my grandchildren. I am taking light stick bracelets, I want to find some neckless ones that are reasonable price. Also, taking stickers for the children to give out. Any other ideas?

Where are pins and lightsticks that are Disney type online?

Thank you,

Angel

Sawyer is so cute! Maybe he could marry my grandaughter! What do you think? Wouldn't they be cute together!

I always have to have bottled water to rinse my gas-perm contacts with. (My cleaning process usually uses tap water to rinse the cleaner off.) Hotels use water softener and it gooks them up...so bad it feels like lumps on them when I blink and affects the clearity. I can actually look in the mirror and see the gunk on my contacts.

It took several miserable trips to Six Flags to figure this one out. I had to take my contacts out every hour and do the whole cleaning process to get the gook off.

I got our disney tattoos on ebay

I picked up some at our local dollar store!

 

[BlakeNJ]

Did google them....look very interesting......
Anyone have any comments/experiences/likes/dislikes/input on them?

My comment...They look gross.

The website I went to was Premier Glow. They had Minnie Mouse, Mickey (of course), Donald, a dolphin (for SeaWorld). Pretty good prices too.

And you don't want to. These cannot be sanitary.

Subbing.

We were glad we had a chip clip. The drapes in our room didn't quite close all the way. I went outside and could see in. So I chip clipped the drapes closed.

One thing I pack, no matter where I am going, is a small flashlight that has a red disc. A red light cannot be seen by someone who is sleeping, but is powerful enough to read by. I also use it when I have to get up in the night and it doesn't bother anyone.

I got mine at Wal-mart in the camping section. It comes with a red and blue disc and the head of the flashlight tilts so I can point it when I read a book.

Target $1 spot has glow sticks and glow necklaces right now.
