So... I guess this is where I tell you how we got here and what we've done so far. We left late Sunday afternoon. We had freezing rain Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. We knew they were calling for it to end late Sunday afternoon so we were waiting for a break in the weather to get away. If we'd put too much faith into the reports on the radio we wouldn't have got away when we did. They were saying the 401 (the main highway) was in poor condition. When we left home we didn't get far before doubting our sanity. The roads were bad in our (rural) area and it was slow going. The secondary h

Ohhh nooo. I just googled Smarties US and it's completely wrong. What you call Smarties? They're actually Rockets. What is wrong with you people? ;D

I just read all this today - so nice that it all worked out! Thank you to you and your husband from up here too.

I think this would be the equivalent up here. Not my favourite, but I do like them. =)

Looking forward to pictures. =) Whenever I see someone going with younger kids I kinda wish ours were younger again. =) Have a great trip!

Aww, sad that we missed this. Amazing! :)

That was the number I was using but then I found another one 1-407-939-1289. I found it somewhere, listed under resort reservations. The first time I called I went through all the automated menus, then I set the phone down and went to the door because the dog was barking at something. I've never called the other number without being on hold for what seems like ages so I thought I was safe. I was gone for 10 seconds and I came back to the phone and there was someone on the call already. Crazy. And it's been like that every time I've called since - no waiting on hold. Maybe I've just luck

Haha, good to know! :)

Thanks for the heads up Gwen. Scary stuff.

We're on the way! =) I kid, I kid. There are three groups of us going, but as far as I know there are no plans to be on neighbouring campsites. We're all family, and mostly work together, so I think they're looking for a bit of breathing room. And we won't be in the 500 loop. Not sure about the rest of them.

Also, for some reason I thought the Jungle (Jingle) cruise would have real animals. Oops.

What did we ever do before google? Thank you for clearing up the meaning of GAG. :) So many great pictures. No snow. Can't wait.

I've never used a travel agent, but yes, maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea next time! =) Would certainly be less frustrating.

We have a preferred site and need a pet loop, so I guess we'll be in 300 too (unless they run out of room in that loop?). Travelling with our 13 year old son (and our 24 year old son). We'll have other family there too but the other kids are older and all but one other have all been at WDW countless times. This is his first trip so he may not be able to keep up with them. We're there from Dec 24 to... Well, we're not sure. Have reservations until the 10th. Were thinking of heading home on the 7th but now other family members are staying until the 10th so maybe we'll extend our stay too.

Thanks for the pictures! SPBR? I guess that will have to do - not too shabby for my third post. :)
