    Default 25 days to go...and nothing left to plan!

    We've done it all - resort booked, tickets purchased, dining reservations made, general days/parks planned, MNSSHP booked - even our small grocery list has been planned! We tried on our summer clothes and decided to put the in the suitcases instead of putting them away (it's winter here in New Zealand).

    Now I'm just spending time at the gym. =)

    How else to fill this time?

    Cool

    After I turned on my INTERCOT Countdown Timer, in 17 minutes we will have 13 days until we leave for DISNEY. 10 hours later we will be pulling through the WELCOME TO WALT DISNEY WORLD signs. Leaving two weeks from TODAY!
    We have done the same, have our resort reservations, made our ADR's, purchased and received our MNSSHP tickes. Planned out somewhat our day to day park hopping and pool time.
    We have our list of things not to forget. DW has begun laying outfits and shoes, etc on the bed in back bedroom that will go into suitcases that final packing day. She is DISNEY scrapbooking our last trip to keep in the DISNEY spirit, I'm getting ready to go sailing. We are so close now we are both so excited, it's all we do is say what can we do now but wait?

    How about Disney movies to pass the time along? Or perhaps making little thank-you cards to be given to CM's that go "above and beyond"?

    Have a magical trip.

    Nothing beats a good Disney Vacation Planning DVD to get you in the mood. I've got about 3 different ones from over the years, and when I really need to "be there"...pop one in and hit PLAY!

    Our family has 34 days and a couple hours to go before we leave for WDW. I have a box that I throw things in that I don't want to forget, rain ponchos, meds, lanudry 3 n' 1 sheets, sun screen, etc... I have gone thru my clothes a few times and asked everyone in the family if they have enough shorts and t-shirts for the trip. If not I can make a run to the store. We have watched our Disney Planning DVD a couple times and I spend a lot of times on the boards. Can't wait.

    I'm having the same issue...3 weeks from right now I will be in WDW, checking into a FW Cabin. I can't wait, but I don't have anything else left to plan or do. I can't pack much yet (it's still warm here) so I'm kind of at a loss....I guess I will just have to spend lots of time on the boards reading trip reports and stuff like that!

    We're all in the same boat, I think...we have 20 days to go, but it's still summer here in NJ so I can't start packing clothes yet. I still have to make up Mousekeeping envelopes, but other than that and physically putting everything in the suitcases, I think we're all set.

    Just hang out here, read your guidebooks (if you use them) again and again, and the time will pass before you know it.

    We tried several times to order a DVD this year, but one has never come. Maybe because we are in the DVC now?

    Although we do have older ones...

    You could pick up either a Hidden Mickey book or a Disney Trivia Book. I read mine before each trip in the hopes that I can find a new hm before DS does.
