if anyone at all is travelling with anyone with anysort of special needs, i cannot tell you how helpful the "open mouse" edition is. it covers things you might not normally consider "special needs" like taking certain medications, allergies, phobias, etc.

trim margins off document print-out

When I trim the margins and unnecessary info off the documents and confirmations that I've printed from my e-mail, they ALL fit nicely into the passpockets without any folding!

I just ordered the $1 edition of PP...I'm planning on dismanteling it and laminating the maps. Also putting each park's pages together (map, attractions, eateries, etc) for use on each specific day. I'm planning on using ring clips to keep them together. I've never been to WDW before and have used my current PP edition a TON! I dont' want to have to carry the entire thing, but want the information with me, so I thought I could just bring "those" pages with me each day! Hope it works!

That is an awesome page! You are so creative! Love it!

Another tip to add to your daily pass pockets... don't just write down where you ate, write down what you ate, and give it a ranking (like Jen and Dave do). I poll the family and average our rankings. Then during the year I try to recreate meals we had at the parks or resorts (along with theme music from my disney collection cd box set), themed tableware, and - somedays - even costumes. My DD loves princess dining at home . Disney also has a great cookbook out of some famous eatery recipes - like the Cobb Salad from the Brown Derby - super yum....

There used to be a "Disney Club" membership, but that was phased out in late 2002.

Is that what you mean?

Last year, hubby and I got very lost driving ourselves back from a dinner. We stopped at the Contemporary Resort to ask for a map of the property. They gave us the best map of roads within the Disney compound ever! If you ever need the World's best map, stop there!

Idea for new worksheet

I have an idea for a new worksheet and wonder what the best place to send it is. I'm leaving for Disney in 2 DAYS!!!! and realized this was something that I know I would have liked to have had. I'll make it myself, but thought others might like it as well.

Thanks,
Kelly

I this idea!! I wish I had seen it earlier! I ordered a bunch of $1 passporters but gave them all away to people I know are going to WDW. Since I am on a budget and couldn't afford new PP for them, I at least wanted to get them the older edition. NEXT TIME!!

Kelly, as a passholder you can commission a worksheet. I would go to the passholder section and check there.
