    Pros and Cons of bringing a backpack

    I have a Baggallini Messenger Bag. It's lightweight and water proof. While I can get free ice water, I don't like the taste of the water there. We have filtering water bottles. I also have to have some stuff on hand for some health issues. My bag is just the one strap cross body. For some...

    Official July 2018 Thread!

    Teacher here too. We finished last week. Glad the year is over! I have been looking forward to this trip soooo much this school. Probably what kept me sane during the last few weeks. :rotfl:

    Yes, sadly, we don't get to go every year. I would have gone last year - we like to go every 3 years - but it would have been too much with being in grad school. SO this is the celebration! Wow, can't believe the girls are off to college already! Craziness!

    Yes, many things for me to do around the house before I pack. We always forget something, so I'm hoping we can have a "win" this time and not have that happen! haha. Good luck to you!

    The Everything Pooh Sized Thread

    I use an EVC for what I consider an "Invisible" problem. Very long story short.... The strength in my thighs is not what others have, and from the same medical indicent - my ankles swell like heck (I'm only 41. It's been like that for 11 years). I can do some walking. I'll probably try to do...

    Official July 2018 Thread!

    For some reason, this whole Disney planning time that I normally have has slipped from my fingers. Not sure where it went. As a teacher, was trying to stay sane for the end of the school year. Then, I graduated from Drexel. There were two ceremonies so that took a few days. Now I'm like...

    Help with touring plan for Fourth of July week

    We'll be there that week as well. I've booked FPs and ADRs. My husband and I really just take it as it comes. He isn't much into planning and moving at a quick pace. So, we just do what comes. In fact, the FP times even become a bother sometimes. Oh well. As someone else said, we will do...

    Park Bag - Tell me what you love to carry...

    I use a baggallini messenger bag, but it is the old style. I've had it for years now - not even sure how long. It's a cross body back pack, but not as bulky. It has tons of pockets, and is water resistant. It also holds a lot more than it appears to. I did buy a newer one that I think I'm...

    Water Bottle? or Purchase Water? What do you all do?

    I use a Bobble water bottle. I hate the taste of the water there, so I like that I can get their water and then filter out the taste with my bobble. We carry a lightweight backpack. There are only 2 of us, so it's not bad. If there are many of you, each person can carry their own. You can...

    Locking bags for use at pool

    I just have a small bag for the valuables for when just going to the resort hotel. It's an Aquavault Flex Safe. I really like it. It's of course not like the bigger bags, but it's good for our smaller items like glasses, keys, and money.

    Character dinning without children

    I'm 41 and my DH is 45, and we have no kids. We have always done character meals. Going the end of June- early July. I have 4 Character meals planned. Honestly, one plus is getting to see and interact with some characters without having to wait in line. It saves time - eating and meeting...

    July 4th firework viewing

    Yes, as mentioned above go to the beach at Polynesian. It may even be a better view than in the park because they shoot fireworks all around the lagoon, so you can see the reflections. We plan to watch them from the Polynesian on the 3rd. :)
