Just three more days of work! I can do it!
Four more for me, including the day we leave. Thankfully things are pretty busy.

Good news for those who like to book bounceback offers. New offer came out today for Free Dining! Yay! As soon as we arrive I am going to book our bounceback for next year - PORS for 10 days with free quick service (that's my plan).
Not even there yet and I'm planning for next year
forgot to add - 5 more sleeps!! leaving bright and early sat. morning for our ride to the airport. Even though it's only about 90 minutes away, I'm going to leave much, much earlier to be safe. Better to sit in the airport for 3-4 hours then risk something happening on the way down (traffic, car problems, etc..)
Our flight is at 6:41 am on Sunday.
We are an hour away from the airport, so we are going to have to leave around 3:30 am. The kids are soooooo not happy about that!
Pack
I wasn't planing on two outfits a day, but after reading all the post I am re thinking.
Oh dear. Thanks for the heads up.yeah, i've gone in august a couple times. My clothes were completely soaked after a couple hours.
Last year I was able to pack all our stuff in a single large suitcase with just enough room left to squeeze in our large empty rolling duffle. We put the duffle in the closet area on the floor and used it as our hamper throughout our stay. When it was time to pack up to head home I put our toiletries back into their gallon size Ziploc bags and stuffed them in the duffel with our dirty clothes and we had a nearly empty suitcase for all our purchases. It made unpacking and starting laundry when we got home so easy and I didn't have to worry about spending $$$ on another suitcase to get our stuff home.Im shocked at how emtpy it is. Oh well, more room for souvenirs I guess, lol. Last trip I had to buy a suitcase while there to fit all my souvenirs on the way home.
Yes us girls have gone through 2 outfits a day, guys have changed shirts/socks a couple times. I don't mind doing laundry 1/2 way through trip while lounging by pool thoughPacking today, leave tomorrow at 5am. Driving from New Jersey.
I found a pin about rolled packing, how did I never do this before

I just bring my phone. I have a small p&s and a DSLR but try to keep our park bag limited to a fanny pack and a small backpack. DS carries the backpack so I try to keep it as light as possible and I would never in a million years trust him to haul around my dslr. It's just too heavy to wear around my neck for extended periods of time, let alone hours of park touring. My phone takes decent enough photos for meDoes anyone bring an actual CAMERA anymore? I always have, as I am picture-obsessed.....and even though i always have Memory Maker, I still would take a pic with my camera, then a pic with my phone (for posting on FB) - in addition to the MM photographer. Now this year DD insists on bringing her iPod and she wants all the pics with her iPod too (for uploading on instagram, etc.) So now I'm like -- in addition to the Photopass photog taking a pic, I'm gonna have to take a pic with my phone, her phone, AND my camera?? lol. Do I dare leave the camera behind and just count on taking all pics with my phone (plus the PHotopass pics)?????
