Just booked to go again!

We've done a bad thing, we've booked to go again and we really shouldnt have!

Ah well, nevermind! Going for 17 nights this time. We're not going to buy anymore disney tickets than the ones we have left from last time (9 waterpark days and 4 themepark days) but we are going to try and save like mad to try and afford discovery cove again with unlimited Seaworld for 14 days. We've booked a hotel on Idrive near Seaworld for 15 nights, then we're going to spend 2 nights in Tampa or Clearwater as we're flying in and out of there (its much cheaper from the UK). We're Super Super excited!

Just got to wait 2 months - we go on the 26th of May!!!

Have they ever considered an Owner's Locker?

Congrats on the trip Robin! 2 months is a pretty quick window!

They have considered it... but they keep turning it down. I think my Dad will want to do it when we start taking stuff that we will start needing there. Right now were not taking enough stuff consistently to get one.

Maybe she meant on the 2 months being a quick window, but I was being serious. That's a quick turnaround for a WDW vacation!

We would vaguely consider an Owner's Locker. It would be so nice just to fly down here with nothing and have it all waiting.

Yeah it's all stuff that we take every year like cups and stuff for the kitchen so I'm not sure why they don't do something like that

We have been thinking of putting like the router and stuff like that in it. Even through around buying another Xbox 360 and throwing it in there. We thought of a couple other things, but cant remember off the top of my head, but since the router isnt too big... we just throw it in our case.

But yeah... id love to get to the point where all id have to take is one suitcase just for clothes, and that could be a carry on because the room we stay in has a washer and dryer. Oh how it would be so nice.

We want to put clothes in there too! Just hop on the plane!

DD - Owner's Locker is a service where you can store stuff in a bin and they'll deliver it to your room the day you arrive. So it's like you can leave stuff in your room.

An owners locker is something you pay yearly for and you can store whatever you want in it. Disney keeps the locker, and when you get to your room... it will either be there ready for you or be there VERY shortly.

In all honesty... we havent taken one yet. Last time we went we spent a lot of time at night in our rooms. It would be more for the kids than anything. My wife and I watched our Blue Jackets play 2 of the nights... lol

Id love to do that... it would be nice to just hop on the plane and go but doubt we would do it. Dont think Jess would go for it.

Mase, Just for the record Disney does not hold the owners locker. It is a private company and you contact them, tell them when you will arrive and they deliver it to the resort you are staying at and then pick it up when you leave and store it for you until the next trip. You can lock you storage bin for your peace of mind. I think it's a great servive and I am considering getting renting one.
