****OFFICIAL August, 2012 (PART 2)****

[starrPA]

We will be staying at POFQ AUG 28th -Sept 5th.
I posted our ADR's on the previous thread last week but will PM them too.
We're on the current park list.

I think the Facebook idea is fabulous! I love this thread! (it is crazy to keep up with, but is's been a lot of fun! )

Mickey and the gang!

Princesses!

Basic Rainbow!

---------------------------------------------------------------------
I printed mine at about 4" across and laminated it to put on my lanyard

Can I get one with mickey and the gang please?

Seriously, I cannot get enough of that song or that video! Thanks to that video and the Disney ad campaign that song went from just being one of my favorites to one of those songs that makes me think of Disney and get all choked up. So for me it is the perfect ring tone. Takes me to my happy place every time my phone rings.

And as for the heat: The friend that is going with me has been to WDW several times already, but never in August. She was a little concerned that the OMG HOT LIKE FIRE heat + the OMG it's like breathing in soup humidity would be hard to handle. But once I explained how crowds are so much lighter then when she usually goes and that the heat just gives us a better excuse for mid-day naps and/or pool time she seemed to warm up to the idea. I'm hoping that she jumps on the August bandwagon by the end of the trip.

I love that video too!
oneRepublic is such a fun band.
I am a singer (Starr is my real name tho from Phila. and we played with oneRepublic at the National Christmas Tree Lighting ceremony show in DC this past December. The best part of the entire event was meeting KERMIT tho' - I am still excited about that one, LOVE THE FROG!!! The First Family didn't even excite me as much as the frog. (sorry mr president LOL)
Here's us backstage with Kermit before the show... http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fb...4309337&type=1
And here's oneRepublic meeting Kermit, too http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fb...1507828&type=3

I too, am not looking forward to the Aug. heat, but think we just had a good preview these past several weeks. POFQ pool get ready, cause here we come! YAY!

Great idea!

QOTD #1: No TA. I booked myself, I have never ued a TA, don't think I could give up control....:I always book on my own...it is so easy! I love being able to make a change whenever I decide the mood strikes....which is every few days! The TA would not like me for 2 reasons: I will be annoying and I will know more than them

QOTD #2: I have no ringtones I need to fgure out how to get some on my iPhone, I am technologically challenged....lol I have no ringtones but I may be upgrading to an iPhone next month...no use trying now to have to figure it out all over again next month! Where's a teenager when you need one!

I suppose I could ask my my SO but he's been so super busy with work and negotiating 2 job offers so we've had so many things to talk about other than Disney! And being in a temporarily long distance relationship,-we live 150 miles apart- we don't have as much talking time as we'd like. We'll be on vacation together in 12 days though and have oodles of time to talk about our next vacation...and other minor stuff, like finding a bigger apartment if he takes job #1 or moving across the country if he takes job #2! It's almost enough to distract me from my Disney planning. Almost.

I would maybe plan on getting to the airport for 5:30. After flying out of Newark and JFK numerous times, I realized the surrounding airports are just way to unpredictable.

I feel your pain though! My DH booked our flight for 6 am out of Newark. Which means leaving our apartment in Central Jersey around 3:30-3:45. Normally, I would be freaking out about getting up this early in the morning, but since it's for DW I'm content with it lol.

Congrats on all the exciting news!

We have the 6am flight out of Newark too but I'm only about 15 mins away so it's not so bad. I used to get there super early because I'm always paranoid but the airport is always EMPTY that early on a weekday so I think this time I'm going to leave at 4:45am. That'll give me an hour.
