    I will be @ WDW PCR 8\10-8\16. My D turns Ten on the 11th. we do BD gifts in the morning, Is there a way to ship the gifts down to keep it a suprise? Can they hold them till she is asleep? We are booked for Bippity Boutique and Akerhus with personal cake

    Hi Cherylene,

    Nothing like waking up on your birthday at the most Magical Place on Earth!  It sounds like you have a pixie dust filled birthday planned for your daughter.

    Guests are welcome to ship packages to hold for their arrival. I do this almost every time I stay at a Disney Resort. Its one less thing for me to have to remember to pack and risk sending my luggage into the excessive weight category when I fly down & I'm not driving down in my minnie van.

    Here is how you should address the package:

    Disney's Pop Century Resort
    1050 Century Drive
    Lake Buena Vista, FL 32830

    Please hold for Guest (your name here)
    Guest Arriving on (arrival date here)

    If I am checking in on a Friday, I usually ship my package on Monday just to be sure it is enough time to arrive before I do. When you check in, mention that you should have a package but you'd like them to hold it until later in the evening. Explain that you are surprising your daughter and will be back to pick it up once she is asleep so that they will keep it someplace handy for you to pick up.

    Wishing your daughter many magical birthday memories :-) Allison
