Things you should do this week before the trip
- DO EVERYTHING IN YOUR POWER TO NOT GET SICK! GET PLENTY OF SLEEP, EAT RIGHT, DRINK PLENTY OF WATER, WASH YOUR HANDS REGULARLY, AND TAKE VITAMINS IF YOU DO THAT.
- Do not pack until late in the week after you see what the weather is down in Orlando. It can be really cold or really hot which will determine what to pack.
- Pack light, we do not have a lot of room on the busses for huge luggage and trunks, use the packing list in the itinerary. There are specific directions about what to pack under the bus and in your carry with you in your seat.
- Bring snacks on the bus with you. We will stop at the very large and inexpensive truck stops along the way, however you need some initial snacks to get you through the night.
- If you have a smartphone there are APPS for universal and disney ride wait times. Download them to your phone.
- If you have a smartphone you should download the disney trip pdf itinerary from the first page of the website and save it as a pdf on your phone or iPad for the week.
- Bookmark the twitter site on your iPad or smartphone. I have to approve you so do it during the week and make sure there is some way I can tell it is you so I approve you (or send me an e-mail with your name). I send out tweets throughout the trip. Many parents already get these tweets. You can also get the tweets automatically as text messages to your phone. There is a direction page on the website for all this.
- Each of our Disney rooms has a theme. A tradition at the All-Star resort is for people to dress up their room windows with characters (stuffed animals, signs, etc) if they are on the first floor. All our disney rooms are on the first floor and in a consecutive order. If you want, you should bring some stuff to put in the window.
- Use the packing list in the pdf itinerary to make sure that you have everything for the trip.
- GET PSYCHED! WE ARE DAYS AWAY!
