Hey--

I have a reservation on hold for 9/25-10/2 (gotta love the free dining plan!) Does anyone know if there are any events/meetings/conventions/etc at that time that would make it super busy? My dates are flexible, but I tend to try to go later in hopes of avoiding the heat...

Thanks for any info!

Hi

We are going on 9/22 for 8 nites at BCV. Now I am thinking about adding an extra night as we are going to the MNSSHP on the 29th and will want to sleep in on the 30th, instead of flying home. It's never enough with me! But this is one disease I do not want a cure for.

 

[My2BabiesLexis&Dill]

Count me in!! We will be staying at All Star Movies Resort!!! Sept. 21-30 We have all ADR's made and got our MNSSHP tickets in hand. Were ready to leave!!!!

[jrasmom]

Hi, I just joined a week or so ago.

We're going on our FIRST EVER Disney trip from September 24-September 29th. AND our kids don't know it yet!! There are 5 of us, me, dh, ds-9, dd-6, and ds-2.

We're staying at All Star Movies and the only reservations we have so far are for Monday, dinner at 1900.. On Tuesday we have breakfast at Ohana's (PLEASE!!! let Stitch and Lilo be there!!), and on Wednesday we have breakfast at Chef Mickey's. I really need to get on the ball for those last two reservations!

 

[litlpixie]

I just made our ressies at CSR for Sept. 23rd-30th......This will be the 3rd trip this year, we just got back from Easter Week, and I'm going down for my Birthday week for a parents only trip!! I live TOO far away for so many trips to WDW.......but if I lived any closer....I'd probably be there every month!!

 

[jrasmom]

I just finished our ADR's!!

Thank goodness someone hubby works with told him to get those scheduled or it'd be 2-3 hours of waiting, he wasn't listening to me!

Anyways, we've got the following:

the Crystal Palace
Cinderella's Feast at 1900 Park Faire
Ohana's Best Friends Breakfast
Chef Mickey's for breakfast
and
Tony's Town Square Restaurant

I've studied, and researched and studied the menus over and over and these look like the places my picky family will like the best.

Alright gang, I know we'll be adding people along the way, but it's time to start having some fun!
What are you doing to get ready now? Yeah, I know, it's 4 months away, but I some of you are doing something! Are you doing something special to save money? Have you found some good bargains that you plan to take with you? Are you already putting little gifts away for your little darlings?

I AM- In February, I bought my DD a "glass slipper" filled with candy, it was meant to be a Valentine, but I thought it would work. I also found some Disney themed tissues on sale, great for fall runny noses!

 

[Cinders Mum]

we'll be there with you all .....9/23 - 10/14 at the Polynesian.

Can't remember all the ADR's we have made just now, will pop back on later to add them. Time is slowing down now though .... everything is done, if I had to I could fly tomorrow now just counting off the days until we arrive at our laughing place

1.What are you doing to get ready now?

2.Are you doing something special to save money?

3.Have you found some good bargains that you plan to take with you?

4.Are you already putting little gifts away for your little darlings?

Just dreaming and spending WAY TOO MUCH time online (mostly here)reading, researching, preparing for the trip! Oh and anxiously awaiting our postcards from our fairygodmailer to let the kids know that we are going THIS YEAR!!

We don't use credit cards, since we sold our old house in March and paid the one we had off, we're not going to use them. BUT we did apply for a Disney Visa to use to get our trip (even though we've got the money to pay for it now)and for EVERYTHING else between now & then for the reward dollars. We'r using it as our "debit card" and deducting it automatically out of the checkbook just like we would if it were our real debit card to add up some reward dollars before time to go!

Bargains? YES!! I went to The Disney Store here at our mall last week and lucked into a good sale! I got my oldest son a longsleeved Bruce from Nemo t-shirt and a Incredibles hooded sweatshirt, my daughter 2 long-sleeved t-shirts with Violet from Incredibles on it and a sweatshirt, the youngest got a Donald t-shirt, and a Buzz t-shirt, and a Buzz hooded sweatshirt, and I found DH a Mr Incredible t-shirt too. All of these were only $2 each. I only spent .88 because I had a $25 gift card to use! And I bought the kids a size bigger JUST so I could put them away until the fall. Now I figure we don't really need to buy any t-shirts while in the parks.

As far as little gifts go, other then the t-shirts/sweatshirts my mom picked up two plush Bruce, a plush Lilo, a plush Dory, and a plush Crush the turtle for the kids too. Again...all for only $2-$2.50 each. They already have those now BUT I'm going to be sure to pack them in our luggage when we leave.

 

[sconnell]

Hmm, anyone go this week before? I was wondering how many long sleeve/sweatshirts I should pack. Before we switched from Dec, I bought some fleece sweatshirts and blankets, now I was wondering if I will even be able to use them, if not, I started shopping for 06 Christmas early!

 

[sconnell]

Ok everyone, we're another week closer! Can we really wait any longer? Let's just go now!
