Liz, I was getting my sister to come with me too..... it looks like now her dh may be home from Iraq by then, so she won't be going...... I don't know for certain yet, I will have a better idea in another month or so, but if she doesn't go with me, you are welcome to room with me.
I'm in, too!!! I'm going to do an extended trip, however. Going 10/22 - 27. Have to stay longer to justify either the 9 hour drive or the $250 airfare. Hate flying but just know I'll never be able to stay awake driving for 9 hours. Will sure need a roomie, even if it's just for the weekend SR meet.
BTW for those celebrating birthdays during that time, I found out that the birthday fun card isn't good for food or drinks, or resort costs, isn't good at most countries in World Showcase but IS good at Disney-owned merchandise shops. I guess that means World of Disney in DTD and MouseGear in EPCOT, the Emporium at MK, and I think a few places at DHS and AK.
I will be doing an extended trip too now......unless DH decideds he wants to go to Disney during his leave from Iraq...... I just saw the new military deal for this year. DH gets in free and can buy up to 5 $99 5 day tickets. I can still buy a $99 ticket without him, but if he wants to go I won't waste it without him. Last time we talked about it he wanted to go somewhere relaxing and tropical for his leave though. So unless he changed his mind I will be staying at least 5 days..... maybe more since I can add the water parks and more for $25. Now to decide which days!
Thanks to my code, the plan is now 10/23-25 CBR, 10/25-29 WL. :cooldance::cooldance:
I finally get a special email but it's for Adventures by Disney. I just want a code for an adventure in Disney.
Anybody up for MNSSHP? Can't find any dates yet but judging by last year they have parties on Friday nights but not Saturday. I've never been and would love to go. Heck, I might even be persuaded to dress up. BTW, I'll be there 10/22 - 27.
How about Sunday morning at Animal Kingdom (Restaurantasouris - sp?)?! That one I've never been to and that's where we're planning on spending Sunday.
Also, we can't make ressies till July, but I need to start a thread to list your name for our 'Ohana dinner on Friday night. Please keep that in mind when planning.
Thanks!!!
Looks like they only have character breakfast not lunch or dinner. Lunch and dinner buffets have lots of veggie options, it looks like. I don't HAVE to have vegetarian but I do prefer vegetarian. (Only eat meat if it's something really, really good, and I know where it came from). Except for dessert. No veggies in my dessert. Sorry for hijacking.
Tusker House lunch looks yummy.
I'll go ANYWHERE! Breakfast, Lunch or Dinner! :eat:
:rotfl:
Count me in for any meal too. LOL!!! :rotfl:
Also, DH and I are vegetarian too.
Okay...right now I'm booked at the Boardwalk Villas, Oct. 22nd-Oct. 25th..but I may extend this to the 29th...we shall see...but for the SR weekend I'll be at BW with a friend....or maybe two, or three...
I'll be there 22-27. Celebrating birthday on 24th. :party: Haven't yet decided whether to stay at Pop or POFQ. Guess I'd better decide so I can make my ressie.
Anybody know anything about BonnetCreek? My sis who's coming with me has a timeshare there and we are debating on staying there. I'd much rather stay on site and get all the Disney advantages.
Hey Janet....
Since I am considering you the Head Honcho of this meet (you were so gracious to get the ball rolling!!!).....could we maybe put in the first post where everyone is staying? I know a few people have posted in different spots, but it is nice to see it all in one post (boy am I a pain in the butt). I am currently at OKW, but may change that depending on where the majority of poeple will be......trying to get my bearings.
thanks so much..............getting very excited......even have TGM set up so now have to wait until summer for those park hours to come out!!!
I wonder if I can talk Angie into coming as well? She's flying down the next day for the cruise anyway....
Pam...it's here http://www.sunshinerewardsforum.com/...ad.php?t=20872
I'm at BWV's 10/22-10/25...not sure if I'm staying longer or not yet, nor have any idea where!? Glad you got OKW!!
thanks for the heads up Deb........I guess I am already on vacation mode (and it doesnt' start until next Friday)............gosh and I even commmented on the other thread..........what a ding dong I am!!!
We have a family wedding in October and I just got confirmation of the date.
It's October 24th. I was hoping I would be able to make it. :(
I know you will all have a wonderful time. Maybe I'll make it next year!
just wanted to bump this up as the trip has been on my mind.
Wondering if anyone wants to share there plans for parks etc. Not trying to tag along....but I like to start getting inspired!!

Oh man, our plans are turned every which way!! My sister just found out that this year owners at Bonnet Creek can exchange for Disney Resorts so we're trying to figure out which one we want. Plus we've added two of her friends to the trip. As far as our plans right now, we will arrive on Thurs. and probably just hang out Downtown or Boardwalk. Friday is Epcot, F&W, and Ohanas for dinner for SR meet. Saturday is MK and whatever. Sunday, a late breakfast at one of the resort Character meals and then heading home. :cry:
Just made my final room reservations (BWV's 10/22-10/25 OKW 10/25-10/30 & Contemporary 10/30 and possible 10/31)
Now to plan park days..Maybe either MGM (or whatever you want to call it now! lol)or Epcot on Friday then Ohana's on Friday nite(I'm game, what time??).
Probably lounge around and Epcot for F&W on Saturday while at BW. (would love to snag a LeCellier reservation on Saturday night!) Other than that, I'm undecided!
After you all go home...I'd like to catch MNSSHP (tickets on sale May 1st!) either Sunday or Tuesday night....
:thanks: for asking...now to get MYSELF in planning mode! I'm in the midst of changing jobs...from a night job to a very early am job...along with selling Disney vacations...seems I have no time for Myself lately..I'll need this vacation bad!
Seriously considering joining everyone--we'll be flying in on Friday for our cruise that leaves on Sat. Perhaps I can fly in a day early with Tricia. We discussed it just briefly. We'll see what happens. I'd love to see you again and meet new members who haven't joined us in the past!
while my dates have stayed the same Oct 21 to Oct. 25 I will be staying at Sarratoga But am currently on a waitlist at Boardwalk and animal kingdom.....i am just happy it is a definatley place...
Now the fun planning begins....do I want to go to the halloween party (still not sure)....we have the dinner at Ohana (:eat:)......hope to see some of you at the F&W festival walking or crawling around :cheers: :trink4: ..whatever it takes
I am looking forward to a good time........going to start a spreadsheet, a ver colorful one......just because that is what janet and shelly do, so I now want to give it a try..........could be fun......and again very colorful!!
Night ladies..... Pamela
Just an FYI...Southwest has posted their schedule through Oct. 30th..for those of you planning on flying SW to the WDW meet. :sunshine:
Anyone booked flights recently........
I am going to fly down the 21st in the afternoon on JetBlue and fly home Southwest in the evening. Just waiting to book (my friend who is coming with me is in Naples, FL right now so I want to wait until she gets back so we can pick seats next to each other on JB.
Getting excited even though trip is a bit away.........I guess I need a disney fix!!
SIX MONTHS SIX MONTHS SIX MONTHS UNTIL DISNEY!!!! (to the tune of the subway song.)
Okay I just booked my flight down.........
Jetblue at 9:35 AM..........we were origianlly going to take the afternoon one (1:30 is), but my friends mom wants her out of the house before the kids go to school so that there is no drama with the kids......hey works for me!!!!
This means we arrive in Orlando at 12:30 ............nice to have the day to do what we want..........now I just have to wait patiently for the park hours!!
Park hours are out. So much to plan! :cooldance:
Anyone interested in Chef Mickey's on Sunday morning for a going away breakfast (for those of us only staying the weekend)???
Question:
I'm trying to figure out a way to set up everyone's touring plans while not posting everything on a public site, you know? Any thoughts?
Liz-It's looking like Sunday is my DHS rope drop day, so I can't :(
