So made reservations for a 2 queen room at Hojos - never stayed there before. Have our ressies, have our 4 day hoppers. Bought breakfast stuff for the hotel room, plenty of snacks for our backpacks - Satsumas, carrots, pretzels. Have water bottles, film, batteries. Baggies for waterproofing. Sunscreen. Cell phone numbers plugged in for the amazingly high number of folks attending DL the same time we are! Seriously it is scary - we have never known so many folks from our town to be traveling at the same time as us......could it just be that we are so much more popular than before.....or is it really going to be soooo croweded.....I think the latter! I haven't listed everything - probably left out 50% of what we are taking - but based on that - What am I forgetting?! Thanks

Got the rain ponchos for ME for Grizzly - I hear you!! thanks and keep 'em coming

I have forgotten lot's before but it is usually something for the DH due to the fact that I pack for all 3 of us. OOPS!! LOL Enjoy your trip ºoº
Originally Posted By magicbeinghad2 were bathing suits on there? hey we leave tomorrow night around 5. Today we are cleaning, washing clothes and packing. Then we leave tomorrow after my son is finished in the last performance of the play he is in, "Cinderella". So we are in a Disney mood. We won't get there til late though, 6 hours from the bay area. Have a safe trip!
Originally Posted By 4Disnee Misty, I just started packing also today after you inspired me. lol I have also started my list. We leave in 10 days. I always seem to forget the gloves and stocking caps. My DH shaves his head so his head gets a little cold at night if we are out late. We always bring an umbrella also just in case. I have bought in the past those nice little $5.00 blankets at Mervyns to use at the evening parades or fireworks. I think they have them on sale today for 3 to 4 dollars. I hope you have a magical and safe trip! Enjoy )
