22 days....oh my goodness....I can't believe you're that close already!!!!

What is it with Disney that they won't release the WofC info......it's just crazy!! I hadn't heard that all the FP machines were going to do the Show Pass God I hope not!! You know with all the confusion, secrecy, etc....you might start not liking the idea of this show!!

I figure that they will release it all on May 31, I am taking it one day at a time. They are using the GRR, the 'Soarin and such in DCA FPs. I think in the summer that if the kids wanna ride GRR that the FPs are the only way to go. Eh no worries.

Wow we are at just over three weeks until our trip. I cannot believe how close it is getting. I think that I may be the most excited of all about the trip. Now if all of the sudden expenses would just stop. Argh.

I thought I had figured out that I wanted to get the pins for my GAD but I am leaning back towards FPs. With the FPs in DCA being used for WoC will that give us FPs for the DCA rides or are they just not going to use FPs at all in DCA? So add another question to the que along with all of the WoC questions.

Yeah! Only 3 more weeks !! Woo Hoo!!!

We are going to go with the GAD FP option, b/c that guarantees us 6 rides for each pass. With summertime crowds and heat, I think we'll certainly appreciate those. Then when you add the regular FPs, too, we should be able to get quite a few rides in even if we don't get up really early.

But I'm also not a pin collector, so the pins don't mean much to me.

My thought with the pins was that I really don't need another dust collector. And although there are nine of us only about 6 of us will use the FPs, so I lean that way. Honestly though my decision will no be definite until we are there.

Yeah, I hear you on the dust collector. Maybe you could sell them on ebay?

My mother would gladly take them. She loves the pins. I like pins and I went through the stage where I would buy them but I realized that they were just a waste of my time and money. When do I ever use them. The only one I ever use is the one that Kody bought for me out of her own money. It is the best souvenir other than Kacy that I got on a trip.

I love the cream cheese filled mickey pretzels. Yummy.

OK I've been trying not to reply until I read the entire thread, but between the laughing, interruptions and now the food i can't handle the wait.

Cream cheese filled Mickey pretzels? We are definitely going to have to get one. Of course, if I eat everything thar has been striking my fancy the 15 pounds I've lost will be nothing compared to what I'll gain.

The Cheesecake Factory and PF Changs within walking distance too (the nearest to me is 2300 miles)

The pretzels we may have to do as dd15 loves pretzels.

I love the regular Mickey pretzels. One thing no matter how pricey that I really want is a tuxedo strawberry. Oh my. I am thrilled that there is so much in the area that is within walking distance. I will need the exercise after eating everything.

Welcome aboard!!

 

[kaoden39]

yes, I too am happy that I'll be walking and maybe keeping the calories in control.

And only 21 days for you - hooray! I'm panicking slightly today as I realized that we leave Thursday for Oregon and DD22s college graduation and then DD15 and I leave from there to Disneyland.

However, I am not even close to having anything ready to leave and I've only read a fraction of your trip report. How can life intrude on my Disney time? oh well, I guess that I'll have to catch back up on laundry and gardening so that I have clean clothes for the trip and it doesn't look like I've been too lazy from outside.

Don't you hate it when real life interferes with Disney? I know about the laundry. I was just putting my first load in the dryer. Gardening I leave to my DH and DS. Mean I know.

How exciting DD is graduating from college. Congratulations to you all. And what a good example she is setting for her younger sister.

And your trip is soooo close. I am so excited for you. Don't panic it will all slide into place.

 

[DisneyStitch626]

Yay! 21 days!!! Good to see you are finally excited!!! I am excited for you!

 

[kaoden39]

don't panic? that is just what I had started to do. First life intrudes on my magical Disney planning time and then it has the gall to intrude even more. I really was starting to panic, but decided that I needed to check in here a bit first and you saying not to panic helped settle me. Thanks

So now that I had to get a new cell phone today (unplanned) which took much longer than I had planned. Then back to get DD15 one. Plus all of the little things that seems to crop up. It should all go fine. We are doing fun things. You are right about DD22 being a good example, and we are all so happy that we get to see her in a few days. While DD15 and I are off playing at DLR/ uh, excuse me, harp shopping, DD22 and DH will be driving back to Alaska. Fun should be had by all.

Now I just have to figure out what to pack.

What to pack...that is the million dollar question. I live in so called sunny California and I have no clue what to pack. I have tank tops and capri pants I bought for this trip. And our weather is weird to say the least. We are getting rain and snow when we normally don't get rain past the beginning of April. Oh well, we are going to Disneyland and that is all that matters. I have some cute cardigans I can wear with my tank tops.

I think the drive to Alaska sounds exciting. They will be driving through some of my favorite places in California, especially the McCloud/Mt Shasta area. I would love to live up there.
