Ariving on New Years Day

[DisneyPhD]

Hi there everyone. Our next trip is fast aproaching. We arive on New Years Day and have Quick Silver all set up for transportation with a schduled grocery stop. All of a sudden is just ocurred to me that, "It is New Years Day, most stores might be closed!" We really need to stop and get some things and our only opprotunty to do this is on the way in. So for the locals and others who have arived on Major Holidays, are we out of luck or are some stores always open? Do you think I should call Quick Sliver today just to be sure it will be OK?

I have already prepared myself for the fact that it is very likely our room will not be ready when we get there (around noon). Since the parks will be busy and the weather looks good (coming from Michigan) we plan on hanging at the resort (VWL) swimming in the pool and then showing my 12 year old niece who has never been there before the monorail resorts. (or riding a bike to Fort Wilderness to check out the petting farm and camp fire.)

Thanks everyone. A trip report will follow in a few weeks!!!!!!!

Happy New Year to everyone too, may 2004 be truely blessed! :sohappy:

Hi DisneyPhD,

You are right about the grocery stores. We did not think of that when reserving. But rest assured, we will stop somewhere for you to get what you'll need. There are Eckerds and Walgreens which have a small, but good, convenience store inside. Don't worry, we will take good care of you...LOL

Regards,

Thanks Quick Sliver, I feel better now, things you don't think about when planning a vacation. We were just thinking the points for DVC go down on Jan 1st, not that it was new years day!

BTW just wanted to remind about the car seat, we got burned with yourride forgetting!!!!! See you tmw


Tiggsmom thanks, I was hoping all my husbands going on about Pop, Soda and Coke wouldn't make you hate us!!!!!

Don't worry about the car seat. All Vans are equiped with at least 2 of them. See you tomorrow.
