Can you believe it is just over one week until Dad and I leave? The rest of you won't be far behind!!! Hope the last minute planning and packing prep is going well. If you haven't started to accumulate things in a plastic bin or box, it would be a good idea to start now. You can toss in things you aren't using now, but are afraid you might forget, such as swim gear, ponchos for water rides, cameras/chargers, etc. Ours is completely full and may require it's own suitcase! (Of course we've been filling it since July!)
I have posted some pictures of the pocket cards I made. The top picture is my ADR (Advance Dining Reservation) cards - just in case they try to tell me I don't have a reservation again! I can whip out the card that has all the info printed on in from the Disney website and shove it down their magical throats!! Was that a little bitter? Sorry. I also wanted to show you the Sharpies I got at Office Depot. One is a marker and one is a highlighter. They are great for marking off things you've already done, making notes on the pocket cards, marking on park maps, etc. I also attached a mini penlight for whatif's. The Sharpies come in packs of 4 and have the little rings on the end that attach to the big ring perfectly!
I got the last of the Magical Express info yesterday from Jamie. It has the sticky luggage tags (like the airlines use) and your "Magical Express Vouchers". Jamie said none of this is actually required, but you do need to present your airline-issued baggage claim tickets at the Magical Express counter in order for them to retrieve your luggage. Be sure to put those claim tickets somewhere safe and easily accessible when you check your luggage!
This is probably my last pre-trip post, so get back to planning and packing and we will see you at Walt Disney World!!!!!!
