A little more excited about the trip this week. We changed our hotel to Desert Inn and Suites just so we can be closer to the park for the inevitable melt downs that will come. Cuz they always do.

I made a dining reservation and booked a birthday cake for my girls' birthday on January 11. We're trying out one of the new flavours - churro cake! We have no idea what other days we will be in the parks though so I need to book our breakfast at Plaza Inn but don't know when to set it. Decisions!
Can you tell me how much they're charging for the cakes? According to the cake thread on this forum, it's about $35 for a 6-inch round. But according to the Disneyland website, it's $60. Since that's a big difference, I'm wondering which one is accurate!
You're too fast for me. It was $60. I have no idea how elaborate it will be but considering I spent $60 (albeit CAD instead of USD) on the kids' cakes last year I'm not that bothered.Answering my own question about the cakes, in case anyone else is interested. They are, indeed, $60 now. The CM on the phone said the prices all went up and the cakes are more elaborate. Guess I'll post this on the cake thread, too.
What did you decide on for cake?
7 days to go, cant wait to see the kids faces when we get to the airport.
I am undecided on how to pack for the weather. We are people who usually stick to carry-ons for saving money and time. Generally, I wear a tank top and capris so they don't take up much space. This time the forecast is saying low to mid 70s during the day and 48ish at night. With possible showers. Those require two completely different wardrobes..so I am packing double? lol I don't have a day off until we head up to the airport hotel on thursday...I'll guess I'll just wait until the last minute to decide.
Oh, I know...I'll just layer DS and I with everything before we go to PDX, and then I dont have to pack any of it!
What are you guys gonna wear? We will be there 26th-28th and right now it says upper 60s. Would Jean capris work? And short sleeves? And maybe a cardigan for when we stay after dark?
