We're excided and nervous for our September vacation. We are planned and packed and back to our usual 1 ADR however I was able to successfully use the LL+ feature.
We're both nervous about the flights after my dehydration episode. I am hoping I can find some Pedialyte to purchase past the gate but if not I get a Smartwater to sip. DH said he's talking to me the whole time so I don't sleep. DH had some basal cells removed so he cannot swim or do any 'jerky' rides which I guess means I might be riding Slinky Dog, and possibly TSM, on my own = boo. I think I have him convinced FOP is not jerky and, if I VQ successfully, we'll ride the seated option for TRON. I'm undecided on single rider GotG cause I didn't feel so well after we walked away from that ride. I was hoping for the RttR but I never even saw it on the LL+ options for HS. Really, as long as we can enjoy the adult areas of the parks we'll be fine. LOL.

I hope you have a fantastic trip!

Not sure I am doing a direct reply to @ bakerworld . I believe Pedialyte comes in powder form. A few small individual ones in a small packet. Look into it. They definitely used to sell them years ago. Good luck! (If not, perhaps they have some other similar product in the section where the flavored powdered drinks are.

Helpful to remember the location of First Aid for guests available on property.
I also suggest Nuun hydration SPORT tablets available assorted flavors Lemon lime Tri-berry Strawberry lemonade
i know Publix sells it on shelf in Pharmacy Dept. They have Expiration date.
I know WDWBusDrivers use qwikSTIK by SQWincher ZerO to add to their water bottles. They might offer to guests from First Aid .

Walmart (here, anyways) sells a powdered product called "Liquid IV" (not IV as in 4, IV as in what you get at the hospital). Recommended by the dieticians for someone I know who had some weight-loss surgery. On the same lines as the Nuun stuff. By the Crystal Light powdered drink mixes at walmart.
Also I have done research into Gatorade (and Powerade, I suppose) and the sodium and sugar levels are scientifically determined to maximize the liquid absorption through our intestines. Hee hee I mean, pedialyte is also science backed. But I suppose you could use Gatorade as a "at least I can get Gatorade" thing.
Plus, the blue flavor, oh yum I love the blue stuff. Especially the blue/white kind, "frost" maybe? mmmmmmmm

Especially the blue/white kind, "frost" maybe? mmmmmmmm White frost is a cherry flavor (Glacier Cherry) with some lime. Blue frost is different - Glacier Freeze is citrus with a hint of strawberry. The teal is Arctic Blitz and supposedly honeydew & watermelon though some say more just berry. I never tried it but kids like it. I know way too much about gatorade after hot days in the sun with band. As an FYI pedialyte is sold at all Disney gift shops too. Only powerade at Disney vs Gatorade due to licensing. I do think liquid IV is very sweet tasting so I am not a huge fan.

Hey everyone, my 10 year old, Ezra, is doing a social studies project where the entire class tries to have a postcard mailed from each state, with a fact, about the state, written on the postcard, and postmarked from the state purchased. Whichever class gets them all delivered first, WINS.
States not needed anymore: Arkansas, Alabama, Florida, Illinois, New Mexico, Ohio, Tennessee.
If you feel like helping, send me a PM for the deets.
if this post is inappropriate for the thread, please delete it, and my apologies if I posted poorly.

Thanks for all the hydration beverage options. It's good to know Disney store sell Pedialyte. I ended up at Target so I purchased the Lemon/Lime Liquid IV powder, thinking to offset the sweetness.
I was purchasing paper tape, gauze and undershirts for DH for our vacation, which was a good thing because DH's surgical site started leaking. After 2 days of that, we cancelled our vacation. Disney was very understanding and reversed our LL purchases, I moved the Mears to our November trip, Garden Grocer credited our order to our account (hope I remember that or can figure it out when I need it), Southwest credited our account (here's hoping the credit still no longer expires) and our points went into holding. I think tomorrow I can go online to use them towards our November vacation. We have our sights on doing our post cruise night in a Wilderness Lodge Cabin. Fingers Crossed the night we need is still there tomorrow.

The United States Post Office sold a boxed set of 50 State Postcards ( dated 2002 ). Greetings From America included the Official postage stamp of each state on front And the Capitals , statehood, state tree , bird & flower on reverse side of postcard. You might still be able to find this online . I collect stamps and postcards …Good luck

DH's leak has slowed down. The medical staff told him he is doing too much. I found out the doctor had told him last Friday that travel on day 7 post procedure was too soon. So I am trying to get him to sit, which is very hard for him to do. If you ever see a guy being followed by a chubby grey haired lady you're probably seeing Bakerworld in action. I use to keep up with him. Moving on, I was able to reserve the WL Cabin using our holding points. So I'm happy. It all worked out. We're looking forward to our next two cruise sandwiches on DCL.
