one word: layers!!!!!! seriously, pack everything from shorts and tanks to jeans and sweaters/coats. we did and i'm glad we did! last month our weather ranged from 40 degrees to 75 in four days!!!!!
That sounds good to me!!!! Now I get to wear my cute Tink hoodies!!
I'm a little worried about what to pack for feb, too! And with the new charges from the airlines, I have to pack for 6 in as few of bags as possible. Why don't they make disposable clothes?
No joke!! I always wanted to buy those plastic bags on tv where you hook a vacuum up to it and it sucks out all the air. My problem would be I would have everything packed really good and then once we got down there to wear it, how the heck would you suck the air out of them then!!
I'm having the same dilemma! I'm doing the layers thing too- hoodies, t-shirts, pants, shorts... covering all our bases!
I can't wait to pull out my tink hoodies!!!!
I'm packing a full range from t's to sweatshirts and 1 light jacket (like a jogger) for each of us.
But I'm going out on a limb, and leaving our winter coats in a locker at McCarren airport here in Vegas. We will need them the cold morning we leave and the cold evening we return, but I don't want to carry them to Orlando.
That's a really good idea to get the lockers for your jackets!!
I wanna pack too...
If I can get you that O'hana ADR can I come too!
On a serious note you should pack your new Tink outfit.
I guess there's no need to pack the "Disney Scene it".....Hollie will be along this time.
Come on and go with us!!
You sure can!!!!! lol!!
I plan on taking the tink outfit. It is just too cute!! I just hope I don't look like a pepto bismol butterball!! lol!!!
We always have to take a mini dvd player with us wherever we go. Hollie likes to take her movies. I have to fight with her so I can watch all the disney info in the room!
Its so exciting to be able to say you are going this year isn't it? You must be so excited, you have hardly any time to wait now. And then when you get back it will be about the same for us.
The Spirit of Aloha dinner show is really good but it seemed quite long so may be best if Hollie is a bit older. But the dancing is good and its so colourful. Oh and the food, so tasty. I so hope you manage to get your ADR for Ohana, if not there is always next time
I just can't believe it will be here soon!
I love SOA!! We used to go every time we went down there. On our trip in November was the first time we saw the new show for it. It was still good! I love the food!! But, I am like you, it seems so long that she would probably get bored and I would want to stay for the whole thing!
Thought your daughter was born around Christmas. Whenever anyone hears that my daughter is named Hollie they assume she is a Christmas baby but she is actually born in September. Hollie is a name my dad always loved and one he had picked out for me so in honor of my dad we named our first daughter for him.
So excited - after waiting since September I can FINALLY book our ADR's on Tuesday!!
That is so cool!!!!!!! I just love the name! I really like how it is spelled, its just different and I love that!!
No way!!! Do you know which ones your going to book yet?
Happy New Year Heather! Your trip is getting closer
. If you decide on Spirit of Aloha I'm curious to see how you like it. I might have to try it sometime. Either that or Hopp Dee Doo.
Awww, Happy New Year Nichole!!!
I am so excited and ready!!
Spirit of Aloha is really fun! We have done it several times, but last year was the first time for the newer show. It was still really good, I just don't think Hollie will sit still for it. She gets very impatient and I don't want anyone staring if I go to hollering at her!!
They are both good shows but if your taking the children I would recommend Hoop dee doo, its more entertaining, SOA is more just dancing. Nick and I both preferred HDD, it was so funny and so much fun, and the food was so good
I have heard Hoop Dee Doo was good too! I bet Hollie would like it better!
Heather are you still doing Universal on Sunday the 8th?
You wanted to dine at O'Hana for dinner right?
How about I add the 3 of you to my 7pm ADR?
We are already 16, give or take a few. I still need to call and twik some head counts. You're more than welcomed.
YOU ARE THE BOMB!!!!! I pm'd you!
O'Hana 
The 8th is Cassie's 12th birthday so we let her plan the day. She wants to spend it at AK with the EMH. I know so many people avoid the parks on the EMH days but she is taking advantage of the Fastpass bonus coupon in lieu of the free admission on your birthday deal so we hope to avoid alot of the line-ups that way. She wants breakfast at Tusker's, a late lunch at Yak and Yeti and she wants to do the Aloha Dinner Show at the Polynesian at 8:00 pm. I haven't read much about that one on the DIS so any input from anyone who has attended it would be great! On the 9th we are doing breakfast at Boma, lunch at Sci-Fi and not sure yet about supper as we haven't really planned that one yet.
