PassPorter Community Tip: A "Brit" Different Guidebook
PassPorter's Walt Disney World for British Holidaymakers is a "brit" different view of Walt Disney World for our UK friends by author/columnist Cheryl Pendry! This comprehensive, 260-page e-book covering every aspect of visiting Walt Disney World from the United Kingdom. It takes you through your entire visit, from the planning stages to working out the best way to get there and get around, with details about arriving in America, passports and immigration, duty-free allowances, driving in the States, and staying in touch while you're away!

Club Passholders get it now in the Reading Room. The e-book is also now on sale to the general public in the PassPorter Store.

Sounds like the worst of the packing is over! I hope all the collectibles arrive safe and sound and that you have a good drive down.

Amy,
From one procrastinator to another, I'm really proud of you for getting so much accomplished. One more week and you'll be on your way!

BTW, that's a great idea about packing up the PC. I was wondering how I'd move mine if I ever move since the boxes are long gone.

When we moved, we had to shred papers anyway, so we used the shreddings to pack breakables and packed the desktop computer with blankets and pillows.

Update 9/11

Ok so today we got some things in the mail from the apartment complex and it gave us our permanent address. So now it feels real that we have a real address. Also the renter's insurance is all set, and we call tomorrow for the utilities to set up for installation.

For packing, we finished packing all of our mini bean bag disney characters, my room is 99% done with only the computer and alarm clock needing a box or bin to be put in. The mattress and bed set go into the pod tomorrow, i'll sleep on the aerobed until we leave from now until Tuesday.

98% of the collectibles are wrapped and boxed and we are hoping that once we get stuff loaded into the Relocubes we will have more of an idea of what we can take and what we can't.

Today was not as productive due to some drama but tomorrow we will kick into high gear!

Alright folks onward and upward!

We are Click ME ......Update more tomorrow at some point!
