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.

So glad you could snag RT tix and save some $$$. I love all your dining choices and hope you enjoy some of the new ones. How cool to have some PP time and an Illumination Cruise....this trip is really shaping up to be something special.

Final PTR Update

Craft Time and Final Ramblings

I didn’t do a whole lot for my trip in the means of crafts but did make an autograph book. Per Chuck’s request, Buzz is on the front. Next I made a TR Journal. I took one of the school composition books, covered it with scrapbooking paper and decorated the front and added ribbon. The inside has separate sections for the actual trip report, dining reviews, resort reviews and special activities. I am going on this trip sans laptop so I needed a way to keep my notes. Let’s hope that it works. If not, it’s a darn cute book. So without further ado…



Most everything is has been completed. I am practically packed minus a few items. Chuck, on the other hand, has not been real cooperative when it comes to packing. I have all the new clothes that were purchased for this trip packed but everything else, he keeps telling me he’ll get to it. In Chuck terms, that means we’ll be up late tonight finishing his packing. Mail has been stopped until after we return. Mousekeeping envelopes have been made and stuffed. CM Appreciation cards are done. I will check in for our flight tomorrow morning before taking Miss Ana to the doggie hotel. Her bag with her blanket, toy, and treats is packed and ready to go. Gotta run through the house and take all the trash out before we leave tomorrow and vacuum tonight. Gotta come home to a clean house. I still need to hit the ATM for some cash but we can do that once we hit Indy since they have Chase banks too.

My mom sent me an envelope that I can’t open until I am in WDW. I’ve had it for two weeks and it is practically killing me. I’ve been good though. It’s tucked away in my PassPorter to open when the time comes. Apparently, it is something for both Chuck and I for our birthdays. I’m sure you’ll hear about it when I return.

We are headed out to Indy tomorrow afternoon. I’m stopping by my actual office for the second time since I moved here to say hi and check in on some of the news that has happened over the past week. Chuck will be stopping at his old place of employment after dropping me off to say to some friends. Afterwards, we are meeting my father-in-law for my actual birthday dinner (place yet to be determined) and then we are off to the hotel for the night.

So with that, I bid you adieu and will see you on the flip side. We will be getting home on Sunday the 23rd.

Coming Up: The trip begins........
