    ugh! i knooow!! last year i went through the saaaaaame!! i arrived at midnight but then i had taken my first flight at 8am and i was soooo nervous that i didnt have any food throughout the whooooooole freaking day! so when i finally arrived at midnight i was staaarving!! i felt weak and tired and then i had to carry my 3 suitcases up to the 3rd floor to my appartment hahaha!!
    At least this time my first flight out is at 11.50am and i'll have more than enough time to eat some breakfast and i'll sure have some dinner in atlanta before boarding to orlando hehe.. ;D

    Don't use vacuum bags!! if security decide to check your case (which happens alot!), or you are asked to open your case and they need to search everything, then you wont be able to get your stuff back into your cases!!!

    I'm sorry Elisa. I know how you feel. My cat died while I was at disney last summer and I was so upset. Just try to stay positive because it's not long until we will be in florida.

    Hi Guys!

    Is there a limit to how much money we can take with us over to America, as I have $3000 ($2000 for the fees and $1000 for me ive saved) Its mostly in travellers cheques! lol

    Just wondered if there is any sort of cut off.

    P.s Sorry about your rabbit Elisa!!
