Still HOT. I'm not sure if where you are gets humid in the summer? It's already sticky/humid first thing and well after dark. If you aren't used to it, can be a lot. We have very humid summers but Florida was a whole other thing. I'd still go then. But be prepared.
 
Did anyone do the online airmiles shop spend $100, get 40 AM? It's between Jan 3 & 23rd. I spent over $100 on pet food at Amazon, all shipped in one package, got the 5 AM for the purchase, but no bonus yet. Just wondering if anyone else has done it and had it post yet? the bonuses have been posting quickly on airmiles shops lately so this one has me stumped and I don't want to spend more money online if I can avoid it

I did it at Walmart but am going to have to fight for it as it was shipped in about 5 shipments and so far I have only received 3 Airmiles but I spent $102 so am missing some. I guess I have to wait 60-90 days before I can fight for it.
I have screen captures and my online receipt to prove I spent over $100.
Just checked the fine print and it says please allow up to 90 days for the miles to post.

Yes, on both accounts and it posted quickly! Same date and just says Bonus miles. I still need to find the time to chase down close to 1,000 miles from the Black Friday/Cyber Monday time frame but my mind is like mush right now. The mental energy connected to being in limbo with my mom's health is overwhelming. It's getting to the point where we need to decide if our trip needs to be postponed or not. If they discharge her to anywhere other than a LTC we're going to need to help provide care - she needs 24/7 supervision now.

We did last week of August several years in a row. Also trips in June and July. Yes, very humid but it's all about being mentally prepared for the weather. We still to this day do exactly what you are asking about. Rope drop and get lots in until lunch time. Then we go back to the resort for a few hours....sometimes to the pool and sometimes to just nap in the room. We go back to the parks around dinner time and stay as late as we want. This style works very well in the summer months because it rains nearly every afternoon. It also works well for us because we don't try to 'do it all'. We enjoy at our own pace....we know we will be back soon.

Also how do you get from LAX to Disneyland ? , I can’t find much current information on transfers. Don’t really want to rent a car.

DSisters and I flew into SNA and left from LAX. We used Supershuttle to get to and from the hotel.

This is what we thought we would do it at least the teenagers would go back. We went in June stayed until 1-2 every day and came back and sat in AC and swam and the heat just got us. No one ever made it back. We accomplished all we wanted to but it wouldn’t have been nice to have gone back on a couple eves.
The heat is draining and we were pounding back water and Gatorade.
 
My first trip ever to WDW/UOR was in August 1990, so I have been there through the weather. I just can't remember it. I know we did go back to the resort during the afternoons and vividly remember taking cover every day around 3pm from the rain storms LOL
 
O/T Off topic
Does anyone know if they offer the dessert parties in Dec on NON M.V.M.C.P (Mickeys Very Merry Christmas Party) nights.
Thanks Mel:santa:
 
I went to Metro and bought a $75 Disney GC, there was no third degree, but she did confirm the number on the receipt matches the back of the GC before letting me go. I hope it will work for the BMO/Metro offer, but either way I need the card and will get 3x the AM on the purchase (also included some lunch so got to $80, should be 12 AM). I'll be going to get another one next week. I wanted to split them up so I can (hopefully) trigger the first bonus and then further weekend purchases.

Now to decide if I should book the flights before I actually book the hotel. Flights lock in the trip, hotel I can always change. I'd like to lock it in, but on the other hand am slightly worried something will need to change.

Sorry @bababear_50 I am not sure, I hope so. Those dessert parties look nice and someday I hope to be able to attend one.

The vloggers had been dissecting the cryptic number sequences the other week about TRON. I think it was Mickey Views who figured it out and then others also confirmed the date. So stupid that this cloned ride took six years to open. Hard to believe that Universal will have built and entire theme park in less time LOL
