  1. It doesn't matter for cable modem (hubby says doesn't matter for any of the items) In 2013 we brought along our WOW cable modem, whatever the WOW cable company gave us. It was our home unit and it worked fine. But we had already got the Disney box and I didn't want to use a bit of theirs and a bit of ours. So put ours modem away. This trip we used a Motorola modem that we bought based on price only. LOL. Brought coax cable and our own (ancient) Apple wifi and it all worked fine. Ray did have issues with his iPad connecting to our wifi while sitting behind the camper but I never did. Insid
  2. I'm being lazy and copied this from my unfinished "the turkey diaries" trip report. "Back at the trailer. Before I forget I should report on how I am reporting! We brought along our own route and cables. We brought our old Apple airport and am happily sitting behind the camper well reporting! So you can bring your own stuff. We tried it last year too but didn't bring cable so just used all Disney stuff in the box. This year we made sure to bring it all. So the pup cam runs while we are out and about on property. If I leave property for say groceries we load everyone in. I worry enough while h
  3. Just drove by the meadows and saw Christmas garland and the 900 bus stop also had garland. Can't wAit to get back to investigate! The AK visit might be cut short ;-). Lol
  4. Ray I saw your post about "seeing the resorts dressed for the holidays". I thought "hmmm rub it in I just might need more ice cream!" LOL. Little jealous of your hang.
  5. Just came from eating ice cream in the rockers at the meadow and no Christmas decor up there. But the ice cream was yummy.
  6. at Disney I'd prefer a Rice Krispie treat (part breakfast cereal!) with my coffee but the girls insisted on Squirrel what was I to do, it's their vacation too :-D And I romped right along side as they ran like nuts. As far as missing the right.... It was the navigation systems fault and I'm sticking with that story, if it got me a seasonal coffee it was a happy coincidence;-) Back at the trailer. Before I forget I should report on how I am reporting! We brought along our own route and cables. We brought our old Apple airport and am happily sitting behind the camper well reporting! So you ca
  7. Hi all! TCD: i will probably stalk Mo for the low down on Fort decorating. ;-) Everyone else this will NOT be anywhere near a TCD trip report. You might need coffee to stay awake for this one. LOL The morning started with coffee and squirrel watching followed by a romp at the dog park. As soon as we returned to the site we loaded the girls up and headed out to find Camping World Kissimmee (which is where this report is being written while Ray goes for the part he broke yesterday) In hunting down the Camping World poor Ray got bad directions from my map program and we ended up on Irlo Bronson b
  8. i didn't want to take over the "time till your at the fort" thread and I had a question. Figured I'd chronicle our Turkey adventure. :-D. I have to figure out how to post a photo. I think I've done it once. Lol First up we had a really smooth trip. Our new truck barely knows our little trailer is back there. The furry kids were well behaved the whole way down. We stayed the 1st night in TN at the Sweetwater KOA. It had a small dog fenced area which is great since the oldest seems to take care of business better with those. She's happy then we're all happy. Lol Nice place not to far off 75
  9. I tried to look up characters using the MDE app and its 11:05 pm. Was told. "ZZZZzzzzzzz.....The Characters are all asleep". lol I thought that was too cute though I wish it said where they usually are as an option and not just "current". Hope your little one gets her chance to meet Marie. Diane
  10. YAY!!!! Can....not....wait! Lol. :-). I'd say I'm not sure how we will sleep till then but the pups are snoring during nap time now. Lol Hurry hurry get here then slow down. ;-) Thanks Mo! Diane.
  11. Mo if the time doesn't work keep checking. I've changed 3 times since Tuesday and all because times and dates suddenly appear. Even moments after a change new times opened so I switched until my current and best option But what to order? We've ordered 1 pork meal (thought I read TCD enjoyed it in one of his reports?) and I ordered a turkey but dislike Dijon. I might switch the turkey to the quiche. I wasn't going for the BOG either but when I got the times I figured I'd give it a try. Then when I mentioned tonight about possibly canceling it Ray said we should see what it was all about.
  12. Mo? Do you think they will be decorating the Fort while you (we) are there this year? I'd love to see it that!
  13. I saw DaveTN mention the long night ahead when doing the FP+ and wanted to mentioned what hubby and I did since I don't recall seeing it suggested We both signed into our separate MDE accounts at midnight or just before maybe. But then he took Disney Studios for getting the Toy Story FP and other 2 and I was in charge of going after the Seven Dwarf Mine ride. We had our preferred dates for each parks. Had our dining dates/times on hand and went after our "assigned" park. Whoever got their park done first grabbed the next park Once all were done hubby very speedily adjusted the times to bes
  14. Is Lou going to "help" me with the issue if having to much to pack up for the return? (As in will I have a non-inflating turkey curbside?). LOL
  15. Well I was on the fence until TCD posted Ha-ha Thanks all. I think I will go with my original Thanksgiving/ harvest items. :). Let's see if this posts. I haven't tried from a phone yet I think.
  16. last year when we planned our 2nd trip to the Fort it was decided in Nov and we would bring a air-blown turkey. It's purchased and already in the trailer waiting. This week I found our Scarecrows Mickey and Minnie and placed them in the pile to go to the trailer. But since I placed them with the trip stuff I've started wondering. Do most just decorate for Christmas even if it's before Thanksgiving? We are there and gone before Thanksgiving so originally thought decorate more along a harvest theme. I'm sure there is no right or wrong but are most decorated for Christmas before Thanksgivin
  17. Hi Cindy! Coming out of lurk (lazy) mode here cause I just have to say AWESOME job and when can you come to my place? :) Looking forward to see how you handle the Goofy/volleyball, I can only imagine he will look just as amazing. Diane.
  18. We were in the 900 loop from Oct 17 - 24. A couple had the site opposite the path to the dog walk. They had BLISS lights (Firefly light projector) they are sold from QVC. All the neighbors commented on his lights. He had blue because they showed up the best in the trees. They are staked in the ground and point up and looked like he had climbed up in the tree and hung a ton of little blue lights. I was all about getting us some, thankfully I was sitting down when they came up on the screen LOL They are really nice but something tells me I'm not getting them soon I believe Rebel w
  19. I owe a review! We are FINALLY getting ready to take the trip we planned a year ago. That trip was suppose to be in Jan 2013. That goes switched to Feb then March and again to April which that April dates lasted as long as it took DH to go to the grocery store and for me to come to the decision why go in April when we could go during Food and Wine? LOL Which is where we are now, the camper is partially packed still from last weekend's Halloween weekend. We picked up a few things last night that we decided were needed for the trip south. All we will have to pack next weekend is the clot
  20. We do have Dollar Tree near us. I will stop in and see what they have left. I also have those paper lanterns from them too. I wasn't sure about bringing them but maybe I will. But I am thinking if I have to put up the awning when we go to the parks what am I going to do with the lights that are hanging on the awning each time? LOL That thought just crossed my mind, when we camped last weekend we only left the site to walk around the campground. We had perfect weather the entire weekend (complete opposite from our 1st visit there where we had 2 storms per day that were intense ... read
  21. Me again. :10220: Figured I'd use my old thread since it was sort of related. My Mom found that Walgreens (drug store) had put put out Disney items this week starting Monday. Apparently not all stores though and it the stuff she was finding was actually leftover from last year and they had discounted it. She found short stakes that have Ghost Mickey or Pumpkin Mickey. She found wall decals that were originally sold for 2/$5.00 and paid $1.49 each. These she found in Mickey gang and Tinkerbell plus she picked up a non-Disney one that I think said Happy Halloween or Trick or Treat. W
