AAAAHHHHHHH 6 more days til Disney

Okay 6 days left what Am I forgetting? I am losing my mind... we leave in 6 days for our first family disney vacation. With their being 5 of us i am worried about forgetting something. I for some reason have this dream that we wake up on our arrival day and forget all of our luggage at home. Just thought I'd ask you experts what things not to forget.. You know kind of like a check list..

I do have a checklist, and as I pack, I check off what goes in. The day of departure (or the night before, if it's an early morning departure) I go through all of the important stuff (any medications, paperwork, money etc...) and make sure it's all in the carry-on, if I'm flying or in the "car bag" if we're driving.

You're going to have the best time!

I agree. I have a long checklist that I go through and if something gets left home, hopefully it's one of the millions of things sold at the resort gift shop!

As we're nearing our trip, things I'm doing right now is checking that I've got copies of all our reservations for things like car rental and hotels, that I've got addresses for postcards, details of travellers cheques, things like that.

I live by check lists, I'm so forgetful!
But at least if you do forget something, you can buy it when you get there.

I just printed off the packing checklist on the passporter here PACKING CHECK LIST & FIRST AID KIT ITEMS....
added a few things that "I" personally cannot forget, printed it and am marking off as I'm sticking the stuff in the luggage! I'm glad I found the list because I found that I forgot and have to go get rain ponchos at the dollar store, wipes and ear plugs (DH snores like crazy! AAGGGHHHH 7 days in the same room as him with no spare room for escape....I hope ear plugs do the trick!)

I also just this morning called Disney to confirm my ADRs and BBB Ressie....thankfully all were there! Cannot wait!! Woohoo!
