Well, like I thought most leave it in the room. This will be my first trip to WDW with a PP and it is making planning easy and fun. But I think I will photo copy pertinent pages and stow them in waist pouch for inside the park.

Thanks Tomar, My kids are so looking forward to thier first trip. My DH hasn't quite caught the bug yet. But I have been there 4 times in the past. Poly when I was 12 was the best. This is my first time being the planner though, and my Passporter is making it really fun and easy.

I took mine with me all around the parks in my backpack. It really becomes my Disney "Bible". My family just laughs at me but I find it an indespensible tool. It's also funny to stand in line for an attraction and have people look over my shoulder while I am reading. I think I may have actually sold a few in my last trip. Too bad we don't get comission

NO kidding--Hey Dave and Jennifer--we need a "who told you about passporter" question when people buy one. Then we can earn points towards our new passporter order!! What do you say?? Hmmm?

I brought the passporter with me (into the park) on my first trip to Disneyland a few years back. I was able to put it into my daughter's diaper bag and that was hanging on her stroller.

Again we brought our passporter with us on our trip last year to Disney World, and stashed it in our daughters' diaper bag, we have 2 now. And we travelled with 2 other families, so it came in very handy when we were in the parks.

Not sure what we are planning for this year's trip to DL. Like everyone else, I definitely review and take notes each evening/morning so that you have a good idea on what you don't want to miss, then go from there.

I don't carry my book to the parks. I do bring it with me though, and every night and every morning, I go back over it before we leave the room. I also made copies of the schedules and kept it with me in the parks. We were so fortunate because we didn't have any crowds last week. I didn't have to use the schedule, but I did refer to it for my priority rides.

Yes! My first passporter was the deluxe edition so it was easy to take whatever pages I needed out for the day. Last visit I had the regular passporter and sometimes I took it and sometimes I didn't depending on where we had planned to visit for the day. But I couldn't live without it back in the room. I like the maps better than what you get in the parks. If you can fit it - I would say bring it! I usually found room in the diaper bag

When I go later this year, I plan on bringing mine with me! This is the first time I'll be taking a PP with. The first time I went I was 3 and the last time I went I was 18 and basically wasn't as excited as I am this time !!! I have alot more say in what we do too, so maybe that's why too !!!

I bring the whole Deluxe PPer on my trip. Each day I take out the pouch for the day. In it is my itinerary for the day, ADR info/confirmation numbers, any relative info, and restaurant menus (from the allears site). I place all my receipts for the day in the pouch to track my expenses (which is a huge help with the following year's planning). I make notes as we go - things to do again, not to do again, and things we missed and need to do. I put the pouch in a gallon ziploc bag to keep it dry, too. We also get autographs on card stock (we have an autograph wall frame in the family room) so any autographs we get that day also go into the pouch. I have a million other things I do with my PPer but I don't want to bore you - I'd be totally lost without my PPer at WDW!!!

I love for you to bore us...it's always good to hear what others do with their PP..
I take mine everywhere..to the parks, work..I like to take mine in the car if I'm not driving and read on the way to wherever!


I haven't figured out how to read my PP and drive at the same time.. PassPorter on audio..Dave, Jennifer??
Maybe I'm on to something!!!!! Yes..I'm begging!!

PARADE FROM MAIN STREET

We are taking our first trip to Walt Disney World in December and I would like to know what is the best restaurant to be at when the Main Street Parade takes place? Or is it better just to sit on the curbs?

Map in passporters tip

LOVE THIS THREAD


Points towards Passporters for referrals...AMEN

AUDIO PASSPORTERS PLEEEEAAAAASSSSSEEEEEEEE

BEST MAPS - ABSOLUTELY!!!!! They include the bathrooms and for last months trip with my 70 yr old dad that info was priceless!!! Next year it will be needed for him and a potty trained son....

I copied and enlarged the maps (color) and took them to staples for medium thickness lamination (on sale .49 page) punched a hole through, held one set with a bread tie in a bag and one set we put a cable tie on and hooked it on dad's scooter. Talk about something you could sell! (we didnt and we wouldnt b/c of copyright of course!)
