Ok! Also, since I live less than 250 miles away, they will either provide a rental car for the week PLUS a 200 dollar HESS gas card, or a 600 dollar HESS gas card and we take our own car. What would y'all do? We're literally an hour away, so I'm thinking the 600 dollar gas card and we'll just take or own car! What do y'all think?

That's awesome! I'd also take the $600 Hess card. Plus, you'll have money left for more gas after your trip. Yay!

Aww, that's so cool. Take the gas card!!!

And, go over to the thread I just started above this one, called OMDD Pre-trip Planning Thread, and respond to my post. I will keep editing my post to update with all the trip info from the current (and future) winners.

Is there a link to that thread?

I would totally take the gift card- chances are you won't spend anywhere near that in gas unless you are driving a tank.

That is when I sent mine too. I got the hotel itinerary only on Friday. Are you going to WDW? I know my contact was out of the office on Friday because I emailed that morning to see if I could just get the hotel confirmation and someone else emailed me back saying he was gone and they were kind enough to send the hotel info for me. Guess it will be awhile until I get the airfare info. Initially he told me it could be up to 30 days.

Since we are both going in June hopefully it wont take that long.

we drive a tank (aka suburban) and we just drove to from WDW 450 miles one way - 1 tank down - 1 tank back - (gas was a little lower than now) and we spent under 200

PS-I don't even want to admit how many times I've been checking my email per day. If I even pass my iPad I'm opening my email quickly to check lol.

Don't feel bad, we all did . . . and still probably do!

 

[Laurali]

Yes! As in like 6ish weeks from now! I'm not a very patient person lol...I wanted our trip to be like YESTERDAY...lol

Wow so soon! How exciting! Yay for you!

I'm hoping it won't take that long.

We found legoland to be a waste of time and money when we went last year.

Us too! All the Legos are faded now. It doesn't seem like they do upkeep there.

Faded?! Geez, it's like other parks don't even try to beat Disney's standards. But I won't get started on that...

Holy smokes!! That's an awesome deal. I'd definitely take the $600 and take my own car. Thanks for the update. I've been wondering what kind of deal you'd be getting.

Lol. No tank for us. Good ole Toyota sedan! Lol! Went from my totally awesome VW cherry red bug to my "mom car" when I had DD lol.

Question for those of you who emailed our WDW contact...did you guys just reply to the original questionnaire email or is there another email address to use? I just tried calling him and didn't want to leave a voicemail so I thought I'd email instead, but there's no direct email address that I see.

So if I could help from the WDW experts. What dining experiences can we not miss? Please keep in mind oldest DS will be turning 14 . . . . sooooo of course he doesn't want to do anything that he would consider babyish. . . . . SIGHHHHHH!

Thank You! We are so excited. I'm about to draw up a calender count down!

Is this part of the DISboard the "Disney Trip Planning forum" and "Theme Park Attractions and Strategies" technically for WDW trips? I'm just wondering if there's a good place for us to start a OMDD Trip Planning thread, since of the 16 of us on here, only 5 or 6 of us are doing DL. I think the first post needs to have our name, where we are going, dates, and what hotel we will be staying in.
