I'm here! I think the 3 of us are at Pop. We get in the 25th and leave the 3rd. I think Michelle gets in on the 28th. Do we want to have it at Pop or somewhere else? I've never helped organize one, heck I've never been to one either!

All new to me Rebecca. I am just trying to put it out there, and see what we get. I know I read that Michelle, mentioned that August 29th would be good for her. Is that day good for you, and your gang?
Anyone, else that want's a meet? Come on everyone.:goodvibes

06-29-2007, 08:22 AM
Hi Melissa, are you thinking of a meet at Pop? Morning, afternoon or evening? That day we are going to be at MK for Wishes, let's definately figure this out. Apparently we are the only ones. I think I will pm this a link to this thread to Michelle.
faindrops27
06-29-2007, 10:35 AM
Rebecca, I dont really care. Morning at the Bus stops of POP. Before we head out to our respective parks? But, then again. We will meet pretty much everday that way right? I am thinking a quick meet, to basically, introduce ourselves. As, I am not trying to hold up anyone from thier touring plans, ADR' or our much needed rest, after our days in the parks. But, if we all want a longer meet. We should then have it in the evening after everyone comes back from the park. What do you, and Michelle think?:confused3
jbmom
06-29-2007, 11:38 AM
I think that's a great idea! That way we don't have to try to rearrange schedules. Great minds think alike, I was thinking maybe doing a quick breakfast in the Pop foodcourt. I like the bus stop idea!

Thanks for the PM, I knew Melissa mentioned starting a thread but didn't know she had done it....
I am new to allllllll of this, so I don't know enough about it to give a good suggestion... I definately want to meet you both (and anyone else who may join in).... My mom thinks I am crazy, but she is going along with everything I plan (she can't figure out why I want to decorate the hotel window or why we had to stop at HD and get Mickey paint chips... but she went with me and helped).... I think bus stop meets are a good idea since we definately will be there, but what if we miss each other?..... I do arrive on the 28th, but am not starting the parks till the 29th and leaving on Sept. 1st. Since our schedules are similiar, I will probably be seeing Melissa a lot on the buses and maybe even in the parks, but I don't think Rebecca and I have any same park days...
Funny, I was just rereading your arrival and departure dates and realized that I will be the last to arrive and the first to leave (of the 3 of us)... I am open as to a meet time and place.

I cannot believe noone else has chimed in. I the shy one, and nobody else, except us three ladies??:confused3 Ok, no problem. So, the consensus, seems to be August 29th, at the bus stops early?? I know you said Michelle that you, and your mom will be waiting for your chairs. So, maybe later on in the evening? I am new to this as well. But, we will work it out, at least just to say hello, and nice to meet you. :goodvibes

I would love to meet some other DISers...but maybe somewhere more central than POP (that way people staying at other resorts might want to attend). Is there anywhere at DTD we could all meet? That way park admission wouldn't be required.
Any updates on the Dis meet? Just found this thread. I will be staying 8/24 - 9/1 at AS MU with my DS, my GF, and her DS.

Hi all! I am in town:) 8/31-9/4...........Just a short visit.
Calypso had a good thought..although I love POP , what about a park or something? Its so difficult sometime to get to resort to resort..unless everyone is at the same resort:(
I looked every day in March for 1 Dis'er...no luck! I would have said hi for sure!!!!
So....what is the plan OP?? :)

07-14-2007, 03:26 PM
I would love to have a centrally located meet... but I have no clue as to how.... we each have our own iteneraries.... do any of them mesh?

As 1 of the few Pirates on the Dis i would love to meet other Dis members this would be so cool. I will be there from AUG. 25h to the 3rd of SEPT. at the POR. I like the DTD idea lets say at the EARL OF SANDWICH anytime :yay:

07-15-2007, 10:32 AM
The last few times I've tried Earl of Sandwich...it was absolutely packed. So if anyone wants to meet there it will need to be during a time that would not be a typical meal-time.

I will be at Pop on 8/25. Then moving to SSR (free upgrade:banana: ) from 8/26-9/1. I booked the extra night at Pop when the special came out. I was going to be in FL anyway so I figured I would stay there for $69. Maybe everyone should put their schedules up to see if we're somewhere on the same day?:grouphug:

Not sure that would work for me... the 30th is our day at MK and that will probably be our busiest day, was planning on staying there till closing time at 10.
We have plans to be at DTD on Tues the 28th for an 8:00 ADR at Cap'n Jacks, but since we are trying to get in as much as we can in just 4 days time (only 3 at parks) I may not be able to get there any other time.... but if I can't get to a scheduled meet, I will still meet some of you at the bus stops!

Calypso,
I think that would be a great idea!! What, or where do you suggest we could meet!! I saw you said Earl's may be a no go. I know, I have half a day at DTD. When, and where do you suggest??
:)
Of course I apologize, about my absence, but life happened. I now, will be dedicated to following our thread here. Time is ticking away. We need to get a date, and time for our Dismeet!:thumbsup2 :yay:

No Updates yet Mek. Still trying to figure the best, most convenient way for our meet.
I think we pretty much have decided. Two places, it could be.
1. In the parks(We need everyone to post thier itenararies. To see if, we have any matches.)
2. DTD - Suggestions are surely welcome. I love to eat. So, I could meet at one of the eateries, like ghiradelli's or if everyone just want's a quick meet. We can do that also. But, I need everyone's input, plans, etc. Then we will figure out what will work best!!

I am now back and I am trying to get a consensus on the best way to accomodate everyone for our meet! A central meet is great!!But, we must figure out when, and where!! And if it accomodate's the majority of us wanting to meet up!! I cannot wait to be at Disney!! Woohoo!

Hello Matey Argghhh pirate:, :lmao:
I loved your idea!! But, mainly because I have never tried Earl's, I love to eat! I was thinking somehow in meeting there I would pick up a sandwich!! Calypso mentioned it is totally packed though. So, I don't know if it would totally work. Maybe in the vacinity? I will wait, until everyone post thier iteneraries, that way we can basically see what we can come up with! So please post your plans!:goodvibes

Did we finalize anything yet We dont have to eat at the Earl Sandwich to meet do we? I can make any day a Disney Quest day so the majority rules what are we going to wear ? Are the any DISboards T-shirts :yay:
Still working on finalizing things.Where & when. What to wear. I suggest everyone who is going to meet, or wants to stand out as a Diser, wear something with lime green. I know I will make a little lanyard with glued back to back lime green mickey head paint chips I retrieved from Home Depot, with my Disname on it. I make a punchhole in it, and then filter some ribbon through the holes, and I simply tie that on my purse. So, everyone who sees me can identify me as a Diser. I dont know about the shirts, as I never looked into something like that. I think if we all had to order them, it would be a time issue, or not convenient for others. :confused3 Does everyone agree. Any other ideas??
To answer your question about Earl' no noone has to eat to meet.

Hi all....I am running the Laborday weekend thread-I'm going to link this to it...it should help if anyone else is intrested. I have met others DIssers by sharing my itinery with the thread(what park I am in on certain days)...I have to tell you I think the bus stop or the pools at 2:30-3:30 is also a fantastic meeting spot for dissers that are at the same hotel. Good luck-I am coming in a little late for your meet(the 30th)...but I want to wish you the best of luck.

My mother, sister and I will be at POP from 8/26 to 8/31. Here is our itinerary:
__________________________________________________ _____________
Sunday 8/26: arrival day - MK for evening EMH
Monday 8/27: MGM for evening EMH - ADR at Hollywood Brown Derby (4:40 PM)
Tuesday 8/28: Epcot for morning EMH - ADR at Coral Reef (4:40 PM)
Wednesday 8/29: AK for evening EMH - ADR at Wolfgang Puck's in DTD (10:00 PM)
Thursday 8/30: MK for morning EMH - ADR at Crystal Palace (9:25 AM) ADR at Liberty Tree Tavern (5:40 PM)

Other than Wolfgang Puck's, I'm not sure if we will make it to DTD. We are planning to make the most of EMH and spend most of our time in the parks. I have no ideas for how/when/where we could meet. It would be cool if we could figure out a way to get together.

Hello DisFriends! I have thought about this in length, and I have come to this conclusion. Since, it is hard to pretty much accomodate everyone. We will have two Dismeets. The first meet. See below. The second meet. I will list tomorrow!!
The first meet:
Diser's take over Splash Mountain!! Get ready for a splashing good time!! This meet.
Will be held at Magic Kingdom August 30th, @ 2:30p.m. In front of Splash Mountain!! We will all have a brief meet, with formalities, introducing ourselves, to one another. Then we will all head to the line to ride Splash Mountain together!! Thereafter, we will say our goodbyes. As everyone, has plans, and ADR's to make. This will be a brief, but nevertheless fun meet!! Disfriends. I ask since crowds are very heavy near Splash. All who come to the meet. Please, please, please.. Wear something, that makes you stand out to your fellow Diser. Tshirts, as suggested, may, or may not work. Because there are other non diser's who wear lime green t-shirts. So, my suggestion is alien green Mickey heads, adorned with our Disnames on them. Tied somewhere, where it is easily visible, to other Diser's. Does everyone here, know what the alien green Mickey heads are, and where they can be obtained?? I hope everyone will be able to attend!! I am looking so forward to meeting you all!! And riding Splash together!!:) :dance3: :dance3: :yay: :yay: :dance3: :dance3:

Hi everyone. I will be at POR from 8/26 - 9/2. We will also be at MK on the 30th. I will try to make the meet, there is 7 of us, 2 families, so it may be hard but I will try. I will have a alien green mickey paint chip on my fanny pack and I make my husband to put one on his backpack. So maybe you will see me around the park if so say HI.

That sounds like a good plan. I will try to make sure we make it to Splash Mountain at that time. I will plan to wear my lime green tank top and khaki shorts that day. I will also have a LGMHPC attached to my bright blue Donner bag - and I'll make sure my mother and sister have them, too (with our usernames, of course).
In the meantime, could we post some pictures of ourselves? Maybe that will help once we get there, too. I will go first:

Hey my Disbuddy!!
About the Mickey heads attaching to the ECV. I am thinking you, and your mom, will have the chairs with the baskets. This is what I do with the Mickey heads. I leave them whole. I take two. Put some glue on the side without Mickey on it. Press them together. Let them dry. So now, after they are dry. We will have Mickey heads on both sides. Then, I get a standard hole puncher.
Punch a hole somewhere on the top, around the white border. Then I thread some ribbon through the hole, and just tie it on. In your case your ECV, in my case my baggallini!! Don't forget to write your Disname somewhere around the border, with a sharpie!! :yay: :yay:

You are not terrible dont even say that. We all are disfriends, and we adore each other, no matter what we look like. Hey, you all see I am full of fluff, a box of 20,000 donuts, and more. But, you know what.. It does'nt even matter. We are all a happy accepting bunch. Only wanting to meet up with fellow Disfriends. In the Happiest Place on Earth, might I add!! Next month!! Wooohoo. :grouphug:
About the photos, I am not up on everything techinical. But, what I did was upload my pictures to photobucket.com. From there, it was pretty much smooth sailing. I would just copy the links from the pics, and paste them here!!

I have to say your daughter is so darling. What a little lady. I also have a daughter, but she is staying with my husband. While, me, the boys, and my mom and dad go to Disney. But, she wont actually be staying home. My husband has planned a trip to take her, and his mother to Sesame place, then on down to Virginia Beach for a little fun in the sun time.

Faindrops...I know you have MK on the 30th @2:30 at Splash as your first meet- any consideration to the EMH at MK on the 2nd as your second meet.....Your doing great, I would highly recommend Meeters get their FP (and an extra if possible) early(for a time prior to 2:30) so that you only have to wait 20 minutes on line instead of an hour ;)
Canwegosoon. Listen, I love your ideas!! How about you, and I share the responsability of making the meets!! I sure could use some help, or if anyone wants to help, with anything feel free to. This is my first time. JBmom, and Shhhq, and I all came up with the idea. Because, we could not find others who really wanted to meet. So, I think they should be involved also!! If you ask me. But, let's ask them. Rebecca, and Shhhq, do you all want to get involved in helping set up meets, or is there anyone else here who is interested in partnering together. To make our meets a blast!! All are welcome, we will post who will be in the commitee on wedsnday night. So, if anyone wants to be involved, please speak up dont be shy.. It would be cool to have a commitee. We will call ourselves. Thanks to Rebecca. Fearless Leaders of End of August Dismeets 2007 Commitee!

I have to say your daughter is so darling. What a little lady. I also have a daughter, but she is staying with my husband. While, me, the boys, and my mom and dad go to Disney. But, she wont actually be staying home. My husband has planned a trip to take her, and his mother to Sesame place, then on down to Virginia Beach for a little fun in the sun time.
:banana: :banana:
Cherish, with her hair, styled like Mickey ears. lol

I know, I know, how can I leave little Cherish at home. I can, only justify it because I know she is going on her on vacation, and will meet elmo, on sesame street!! Plus we are all going in 2008!
What a beautiful little girl!! Your boys are handsome, too! You did good!! ;) My daughter is staying home....my son is staying home....my husband, too. :rolleyes1 I am doing an adult's only, girl's only trip with my mother and sister. We are attemting to write a co-pre-trip report (link in sig). We are really looking forward to this trip.

Ducking for cover on this but I didn't get a chance to read all the posts - can I join the meet? When and where is it going to be? We're going to be at POP from the 20th to the 25th then over to the CR until the 30th (sad, sad day as we're going home then). If you're meeting at a park can I ask which one? I'd LOVE to do this.

I can help organize a 2nd meet...my problem on this trip is that it is a short trip for me(3 days) and even though this will be our 3rd trip this year:rolleyes1 DH is one that I can never truly nail down...he always has his own agenda that I don't find out about until we are there.

Forgot to mention, I too am leaving a child at home :sad1: My son Curtis came to Disney with us last year, and although he said he enjoyed the US, he was in no hurry to visit disney again. Well he is almost 18 so I couldn't really make him come, much as I will miss him, he will be being looked after by my mum. I will be bringing him lots of gifts home though, he really likes ecko clothing which is sooo expensive here,, like the equivalent of $120 for a t-shirt :faint: so I will be stocking up :)

You are not terrible dont even say that. We all are disfriends, and we adore each other, no matter what we look like. Hey, you all see I am full of fluff, a box of 20,000 donuts, and more. But, you know what.. It does'nt even matter. We are all a happy accepting bunch. Only wanting to meet up with fellow Disfriends. In the Happiest Place on Earth, might I add!! Next month!! Wooohoo. :grouphug:
About the photos, I am not up on everything techinical. But, what I did was upload my pictures to photobucket.com. From there, it was pretty much smooth sailing. I would just copy the links from the pics, and paste them here!!
Disney here we come:cheer2: :cheer2:

Thank you, thank you, for your kind words. You are so nice!
My hubby, is not into the whole Disney scene, he rather cruise. Not a disney cruise, either. So, he passed on going. :confused: But, it is ok. I will have a very fun time nevertheless!:wizard: How couldnt I possibly. I am going to Disneyworld, with my two boys,my mom, and dad and getting to meet some Disfriends!! People, who share my undying love for Disney! :love: :love: Plus, the dining plan. Life, really can get no better than this, if you ask me!:flower3:
So, since you and your Mom, and Sis, are Popster's too. This was Me, Shhhq, and Jbmom' idea. We would meet at the bus stop's in the a.m. before heading out to our respective parks!! I know Shhhq, and I basically have similiar touring plans, so we were just going to chit chat, while waiting for the bus. I am an early park goer, so I will be at the stops early, as I like to get to the parks at opening. So, I will see you there, as our iteneraries look like they match up everyday!!:goodvibes

Hello Dizzdoll,
Welcome to our thread!!:wizard:
If you would kindly post your plans. I will put the info in my spreadsheet, so I can try and come up with a meet, you can attend. :goodvibes
So, far the first meet, is on August 30 at MK, at Splash Mountain! But, there may be a tentative meet at AK, on the 29th. The goal is to make it where noone here will be left out, who wants to meet!::)

Tracie, oh my goodness your family is beautiful!! I just noticed you all are coming from the UK, wow!! How long is the plane ride?? I am a little sad leaving Cherish, at home, because she :love: Mickey Mouse. But, I just keep thinking, we will have so much fun next year!! I will of course bring her some Mickey Mouse presents!!:yay: :yay:
Yes Ecko, is very expensive. Ironically, I was in the mall on Sunday,running to the Disney store before work. I saw Macy's(a department store here), was having a sale on Ecko shirts. I think they were going for 29.99 per shirt, which was a great sale. But, I didnt have time to look through them though.:confused:

Oh Thankyou :love: faindrops!!!
Yeah, we are coming all the way from England :faint: the plane ride is around 10 hours long :scared1: Not something I am looking forward to, but hey its worth it!! I have just started reading your pre-trippie,, glad to hear your son likes his geography, we will be glad to answer any questions he may have about our country :o) we have a little tradition in my house that whenever we travel to another country we always collect a little rock or stone to put in the garden, if he would like a little stone from england I can pack one for him :rotfl:
I'm sure cherish will have a great time this year, she still looks very young, how old is she? She too is soooooo cute. I know where you are coming from, its hard to split the kids up sometimes, but you know there is only so much mom to go around, so in the end, the kids get to have a better time if your time isn't divided into so many parts,, does that make sense :confused: I know my girls will have a better time this year because they get to do all of the things they want to do,, last year my son got very sulky when in Disney because the rides weren't scary enough,, when we went to busch gardens the little one got sulky *** all the rides were too big sheeesh :rolleyes:
As for the Ecko shirts, we were so lucky last year, we went to the outlet mall and there was a deal for 3 t-shirts for $20!!! I hope they have something similar this year:thumbsup2:
Well I'm off to carry on reading your pre-trippie,,, I love the descriptiveness, makes me feel like I'm almost there :cloud9:

Tracie wow, 10 hours. But, yes Disney is worth it!! Yes, please pack the stone, thank you. I will pack one for your family. If you would like. We are from Long Island NY. So, I will be glad to pack a stone for your family. The picture of Cherish was when we were in Disney in 2005, she is 3 now. Justin is 5, Xavier is 13, noone can believe his age. As he looks at least 15, 16. But, I digress.
I know what you mean, about dividing our time up as mothers! I am with you all the way on that one! I try to do the best I can!!:cloud9:
Wow, 3 for 20, that is excellent!! I hope you are able to find some great deals like that again!
I have so much to do, all I have been doing is posting, and I have work to go to later on in the evening.:scared: I have dinner on, the house is clean. But I promised, I would take the munchkins out for a walk. I need to do one load of laundry.So, I better go, time, flies by so fast, when your having fun!

Hey there Tracie,
I will let Xavier, and Justin pick out the stones for your family. We will bring 3. One for you, and your two daughters. Your son, is probably pass the age. So, unless you tell me to bring 4 we will bring 3.:)
You must be so proud of yourself!! Working, and schooling, at the same time. With three children, on your own?? Plus, you are taking your girls, on a daughter, and mom trip to Disneyworld!! You are what I call a SuperMom!
It was hard enough for me to work, and take my college courses, and I didnt have children back then. You are one amazing woman!! You already, have determination, and discipline, the way I see it!! Your children are blessed, to have a mom like you!! :cloud9:
I do know what you mean about, just coming to the Disboards to check out a few posts. I do the same thing, and time just flies!! :lmao: It is so much fun!! Mixed with the excitement, of going next month. Wow, I just love it!!
What are you most looking forward to doing??
Me, I am most looking forward to:
Bonding time, with the boys.:love: :love: :love: :love: :hug:
The food, I love to eat!! :love: :love:
Expedition Everest! :love:
Splash Mountain:love:
Test Track:love:

A meet in AK on the 29th to ride Expedition Everest sounds great!!
Pamouselover...when will you be leaving PA to start your drive to Florida? Will you be taking I-81 down? If so you'll pass our home!
We'll be driving down as well. We'll be leaving early the 24th, drive straight to Atlanta Georgia to see a friend, stay over night and do the Atlanta Aquarium at 9am on the 25th, have lunch then take off for Disney. Check into CBR late the 25th.
Can't wait to see other Dis'ers! I'll have my Team Focker Lanyard around my neck! :)

MariaEller,
We will be leaving our home close to PA./DE border at 4am on the 25th.
Taking I/95. We do not check into CBR until the 26th.
31 days!:goodvibes
Sorry that I haven't been able to reply until now, but our puter is acting up. ugh!!! I hate when that happens! If I can get it going again then I'll try to post pics as well. My girls are 17, 16 and son 12.
A meet in AK on the 29th to ride Expedition Everest sounds great!!
Pamouselover...when will you be leaving PA to start your drive to Florida? Will you be taking I-81 down? If so you'll pass our home!
We'll be driving down as well. We'll be leaving early the 24th, drive straight to Atlanta Georgia to see a friend, stay over night and do the Atlanta Aquarium at 9am on the 25th, have lunch then take off for Disney. Check into CBR late the 25th.
Can't wait to see other Dis'ers! I'll have my Team Focker Lanyard around my neck! :)

As for the meet in AK, sounds great to me also!! Even though my mother was over yesterday, and said she would not go on. She is a ride chicken, or a some ride chicken. She will ride big thunder, and loves it. I tell her EE is the same, just more smooth. She just doesnt get it.:confused3

Now, we still need someone to volunteer to organize. The AK meet. I did'nt. Just want to volunteer anyone. That would be rude. So, if someone would like to take the position. I will advise the 1st post!!:thumbsup2

So, I just have to share this lil tidbit of information.
I was downstairs doing some laundry, my phone I keep it charged up on the kitchen counter. Well, I come up, to pick it up, to call my mother. It is not there, hmm, seemed strange but ok. I decided to check on dinner, so I call Cherish to help me. Lo, and behold here comes Cherish with my phone. All soaking wet. She says, mom I washed it for you, needless to say the whole phone was drenched, and has now died. I was pretty heated, so I just came in the room to just type this out, and take a breather. I really cannot believe it. Now, I need to buy a new phone. :headache: :headache: :sad2:

I am tempted to volunteer, but I don't really know anything about doing it... plus I am not familiar with the park or the ride as others may be....
I was wondering how many that want to do the AK/EE meet are planning to do the EMH that day, since it may be easier to meet during those 3 hours than regular park hours.

Hey our Moms can sit and chat while we ride.... my mom has some heart issues and can't ride rides like EE..... don't even know if she will be able to do Splash Mountain or not....
I was thinking about a meeting time for EE.... since the park closes to the public at 5pm and hopefully everyone doing AK that day will be doing EMHs, I thought 6pm would be a good time... crowds should be thinned out by then.
If anyone that knows has any advice I am all ......:earboy2:

About our moms. sounds like a plan. My mom has heart problems also. But, I talked her into riding splash in 2005, and she loved it. But is still a bit nervous while waiting in line. I dont know if she will ride this year though. She will not miss riding big thunder though, her favorite ride.

I talked this plan over with my Mom this morning and she was all for it... she especially liked the idea that I would have company on a ride or 2.... She isn't sure if she will do splash or not, she will decide how she feels that day... as much as I would like her to, I won't push her cause she knows her health better than I do.
Oh and almost forgot... anyone that has someone in their party that won't ride in either of the ride meets, they will have company and my mom mentioned they could get a drink and sit and talk!!!
One month from today, will be spending the night in Georgia on my way to DISNEY!!!!

Michelle, this post, got me so excited!! I cannot believe we are down to a month. I can clearly remember, back in March/April. When the trip planning all began. Ohhh we are almost there!!
Has anyone started to pack yet?? I think I will definately, start to pack 2 weeks from now. I think my plan is to take 2 big bags, and one small roll on. Filled with waters, snack foods, breakfast bars. My window decorations. I will empty this roll on to pack souvies on the trip home. But then again, I could check 3 bags, and not bother with the roll on. That way, I can just have my baggallini, in tow. I am way excited!!

Hello everyone! :wave2: I just found this thread and would love to get in on some meets. It will just be DD12/13 (she is having a birthday) and I. We are staying at SSR and am looking forward to trying the dining plan for the first time. We are arriving on the Aug 29th Late and leaving on Sept 3 as late as possible. Here are our plans and we are definitely going to try to make the 2 meets at MK.
8/30 EE MK 8:00 ADR CP 10:05 then over to MGM later in the day 6:50 Mama Melrose
8/31 AK in the am, EPCOT later 7:00 San Angel Inn
9/1 Enjoy our resort/ SSR participate in some of the activities possibly a trip to DTD and Mini golf at Winter/Summerland 7:40 Turf Club
9/2 AK in the am, off to MK in the afternoon 7:00 Tony's Town Square
9/3 MK in the am 8:40 Kona Breakfast, then to EPCOT for good bye lunch at 12:30 Lecellier

I never pack until the night before...that way I don't keep thinking of extra things to bring! Our family has a motto: if it doesn't fit in a standard 22" carry on -- then we don't need it! I've just had so many suitcases lost or damaged that I don't feel comfortable checking luggage anymore. So, that's a definite plus about traveling to WDW during the summer...shorts take up a lot less room than pants, and no need for a bunch of warm clothes. :thumbsup2

I've just had so many suitcases lost or damaged that I don't feel comfortable checking luggage anymore. So, that's a definite plus about traveling to WDW during the summer...shorts take up a lot less room than pants, and no need for a bunch of warm clothes. :thumbsup2
I never wear shorts. As for a 22 inch carryon, wow. Pretty impressive, I could never. So, when you buy souvies what do you do have them shipped back home? My mother is a person who takes about 6 outfits, and will wash and wear them again. That kept her down to one small checked last year, only problem was she bought so many souvies back. Her bag was about to burst.

Pam- I love to pack for Disney also!! I am trying not to pack so far in advance this year however. I usually have one bag packed 2 months out. This year I have nothing packed so far.

With so much summer clothes in clearance this is the perfect time to do a test pack...SO I am going to do that tomorrow. I just got DH a new bathing suit and some tops/shorts. I am hitting Macys this week to look for the kids too.

My kids bring a backpack with them in addition to the 22" -- any souvenirs they buy will usually fit in that. They are a little bit older so they really aren't into that many things...mainly pins or a hat/t-shirt. We are fortunate that we've been able to travel to WDW and DL many times and they really go for the rides more than the shops (of course with DD entering high school, that might change real soon!).

Ok, I see. As for our family. The kids get a set amount of money. 50, and 75 to spend, on souvies. I usually bring things home like wine from Japan, and souvies for some of my close friends. So, I always need a little extra room, for packing.
We are getting pretty close. I am under 30 days!! :goodvibes

I wish my tickets would come though, thats when I get really excited :hyper:
Well today I started to pack a little bit :blush: Not clothes, but all the other things, like stuff to decorate my window at POP, toiletries, pop up hamper, travel plug and kettle etc. I have made a mess of my bedroom though, maybe I should have waited :)
I already have a large holdall full so don't know what its gonna be like when I start to pack the clothes :eek: I have paid to take double luggage allowance, we have 40kg each so thats 120kg between us!

A kettle, is like a coffee maker right? I usually don't drink much coffee. Not because, I dont love it. It just makes my tummy upset a bit. I am however looking forward to having my first cup of Kona coffee, at Kona' for breakfast!!
You have to pre pay, for your luggage allowance, wow! I guess, I would look at packing differently, if they had rules like that here, on the airplane I fly. I usually weigh, the bags here at home, and if I am under 50. I am ok. But, the problem I sometimes face is when I am returning home. Since there are no scales on vacation. I pack everything, and then I am hit with a surprise at the airport of, either pay a surcharge or divide the contents between the other bags. This is why I pretty much am reserved to the fact of 3 bags. Two for our clothes, one for everything else. I really dont want to take 3 plus a carryon, we will see though!

Yes indeed I am there, on the 31st!! Let me just tell you something StepDisney. This meeting is the first I ever tried, to attend. This is so unlike me. Because, I am usually shy with meeting new people. But, after I know you. I am easy going!! I however, am reserved to the fact that I will push through my shyness, and meet some of the most wonderful people this side of the earth!!
Also, this is for everyone. I will not tag along. Following you through the parks. I am the hi nice to meet you. Having a nice time? Great so am I. Have a wonderful dinner, bye type. I have no idea how meets are supposed to go, as I have never been or done one. But, in my mind. I am thinking it will go just like when my friends and I have book club. Just a nice time together, but in our case chatting briefly about our love Disney.

Faindrops,
I'm chatty but self conscious. My chattyness is usually a direct result of being nervous about meeting new people. It usually makes things easier for everyone else. I'm usually the one in charge of ice breakers at showers and fellowships. I guess you can say I push through my shyness by chatting. I'm a brief chatter though. I have a lot of energy so I usually chat and run. :) My husband is very quiet and will not want to meet for a long time. Don't mistake his quietness, he would consider a meet a very "girly" thing and would just be uncomfortable "chatting" :lmao:. Don't worry, I'm sure we all want to meet and put faces to the nice people we have come to talk to daily but there is a bit of nervousness attached to placing faces with words. It's easy for those of us who know how to post pictures and have done so, but I haven't done so yet......:scared1: Gotta go now and start my diet (just kidding) :rotfl2: I've never been to a meet like this before either but I think of it like "back to school" or "meet the parents" night at the schools each year. You get a short period of time to say hello and attach faces to the people you will intereact with all year long.
I agree, faindrops!I think it should got the same way. We meet, we ride, we go on our way! But if you want to follow me feel free. I must warn you all, I walk pretty darn fast!!!!!!!!:rotfl2:
:rotfl2: You sound like me. My DH calls me commander because I walk pretty darn fast myself. Because we all usually have the park mapped out for the day, it would be impossible for us to follow each other around but it will be nice to have someone to wave to once in a while if we pass each other again. :thumbsup2

I am the same way! Plus, I will be with my mother and sister. They have never been and I don't want to have to worry about meeting other people when we could be doing something else. (Please don't take that the wrong way.) I am hoping to meet at Splash. If we make any of the meets that will be the most likely. However, I'm not sure if we will ride. If we are able to make it, we will meet everyone there, say hi and be on our way.
BTW - where, exactly, are we going to meet at Splash? I would hate to get there and miss everyone.

Melissa,
this sounds exactly like me too!! I can chat away on the boards for ever, but meeting face to face, I'm quite shy :blush:
Having it planned this way makes it so much easier for everyone I think, no awkward moments after the ride has ended where everyone wonders if it is ok to leave or what we should be doing next :lmao:

I did see you, I(me, the boys,mom, and dad) and Shhhq, will be at Epcot on the 31st!! So, the ride on Soarin in the morning sounds great to me!! We should head there first, at park opening for the lines are horrendous, as the day progresses, what do you think??
I cannot believe we will be there this month!! I have yet to decorate my t-shirts. I feel I am so far behind. I think after I read the boards for one more hour. I will get the kids to help me, make them! Since I am off today. It should be pretty easy! Maybe, I will dust off the luggage. I have lime green luggage, but it has gotten pretty darn scruffy looking, with only 2 trips to the airport, do you know how to get it clean. I am thinking. I may get my scrub brush, and scrub, the outside of it, with some pine sole, of lysol. Any other ideas??
About the pictures, you see I am fluffy all around, but it is me. Since I have gotten older(34, about to be 35:scared:I will celebrate my birthday in Disney!!)I have gotten over, fitting in societies perfect size mold. I think everyone is beautiful, in his or her own way. I know I am a good person, inside, and out. So, I am ok with myself, fluffiness and all!!:goodvibes

That is our R&R day, and we have planned to go fishing in the morning and then rent the sea racycer at our resort. So I am hoping to get shower, dressed and head to MK to ride with everyone if time allows.
? for you, did I read it right that you were in WDW this same time last year?
Pam, no problem.
I was thinking about the searaycers too! But, I don't know where it would fit in my schedule. What does the voucher include, I have yet to look at it. Is it good for our whole party? Or is it just for 2. If they are transferrable. I could give mine away. As I don't think I will use it. Especially with Justin along. I think I may go to Planet Hollywood, though.
Last year. Yes I was there!! It was the best!! But, more or less in the middle of Sept. I took my son Xavier out of school, for 11 days. Wrong move on my part. It took him so long to catch up, and it followed him through the whole school year. He could not miss another day, or he would have to repeat the school year. So, I decided to go in August, this year, as it will not interfere with his, or Justin' schooling. They start school after we come back!!:goodvibes

I did see you, I(me, the boys,mom, and dad) and Shhhq, will be at Epcot on the 31st!! So, the ride on Soarin in the morning sounds great to me!! We should head there first, at park opening for the lines are horrendous, as the day progresses, what do you think??
I cannot believe we will be there this month!! I have yet to decorate my t-shirts. I feel I am so far behind. I think after I read the boards for one more hour. I will get the kids to help me, make them! Since I am off today. It should be pretty easy! Maybe, I will dust off the luggage. I have lime green luggage, but it has gotten pretty darn scruffy looking, with only 2 trips to the airport, do you know how to get it clean. I am thinking. I may get my scrub brush, and scrub, the outside of it, with some pine sole, of lysol. Any other ideas??
About the pictures, you see I am fluffy all around, but it is me. Since I have gotten older(34, about to be 35:scared:I will celebrate my birthday in Disney!!)I have gotten over, fitting in societies perfect size mold. I think everyone is beautiful, in his or her own way. I know I am a good person, inside, and out. So, I am ok with myself, fluffiness and all!!:goodvibes
Disney this month wooohoooo:yay: :yay:
Fluffy. I like that. I'm 40 :scared1: and fluffy and I do love me:). I'm just so excited about this trip. I've been watching the travel network's features on disney all week. Saw the behind the scenes one today.

I am the same way! Plus, I will be with my mother and sister. They have never been and I don't want to have to worry about meeting other people when we could be doing something else. (Please don't take that the wrong way.) I am hoping to meet at Splash. If we make any of the meets that will be the most likely. However, I'm not sure if we will ride. If we are able to make it, we will meet everyone there, say hi and be on our way.
BTW - where, exactly, are we going to meet at Splash? I would hate to get there and miss everyone.
Ok, I totally understand about meeting, and moving right along.
Where to meet, hmmm:confused: Should we meet right at the ride entrance or, to the right down the steps by the fast pass machine, that place is always so crowded. Give me some ideas ladies.
Please remember everyone who is meeting this day, please, please, please, get fast passes, around 12p.m. So, we can just get in the fast pass line to ride, at 2p.m.. This will eliminate us all waiting an hour or more to ride!! Thanks everyone!!:goodvibes

Melissa,
this sounds exactly like me too!! I can chat away on the boards for ever, but meeting face to face, I'm quite shy :blush:
Having it planned this way makes it so much easier for everyone I think, no awkward moments after the ride has ended where everyone wonders if it is ok to leave or what we should be doing next :lmao:
I'm so looking forward to meeting everyone tho :hug:
Great, I am so happy. I am not alone. I can chat, chat, chat, here, but I am a lil shy. But, at least we all know about one another!
Pam, thanks for coming up with the meet, ride, and move right along. This is terrific!! No ackward moments at all. Just pure sheer fun, at the Happiest place on Earth!! Tracie, I am so excited right now. I just cannot believe we are down to just a few short weeks. :banana: :banana:

I may be able to make the one on the 31st at Epcot. I need to rearrange a few days since Teppanyaki won't be open when we get there now. So I don't really need 3 days for Epcot. I had everything all planned out now it's all a mess!

10:00 a.m. EST. Yesterday was Disney Paris (which is a lot like Disney here) and Monday was AK. Today was the behind the scenes. I am so goofy I check the schedule all day to see when there will be a Disney feature. I sometimes check for the entire week. (shhhh, our little secret).
By the way, the hokey pokey is my favorite dance :dance3:.

Please don't stress. This is supposed to be fun. I always say, everything is subject to change. Relax and it will come to you. Write it down and post it. A lot of really good schedulers post on this board and they may be able to help you work it all out....they've been helping me, especially with ADR's and park days.

If this is all the stess I have between now and then it will be great!:rotfl2: I'm mostly upset for my son who really wanted to try Teppanyaki, I read on the restaurant board that the renovation was going to take longer than expected, so I called and sure enough it's going to still be closed. I was thinking about switching that Epcot day and my Animal Kingdom day around. Who knows how it will end up! I'm glad I had an extra ADR though, so happy I didn't cancel WCC!

Sorry that I haven't been able to post for awhile, but my home puter is really messed up. I've had to switch a few things around in our schedule due to extra family members deciding at the last minute to join us. I was even able to add them to existing ADR's without problems! We will now have 17 in our Grand Gathering. WooHoo! So, here's our new schedule:

25th -- Atlanta Aquarium
Arrive CBR late on August 25th
Aug 26th--Tour resorts (teens doing BB or TL) /MK late afternoon and evening
Aug 27th--EPCOT -- Illuminations Dinner and Dessert Party 7:30pm
Aug 28th--MGM -- 1:55pm 50's Prime-Time Cafe, Ragland Road 9pm
Aug 29th--AK/EPCOT-- AK until ? ; 8:45pm LeCellier in Canada
Aug 30th--MK -- 8:15am Crystal Palace breakfast
Aug 31st-- check out; Ohana 11am @ Poly; rent watermice; tour resorts & FW campground; DTD; head to Cocoa Beach; free one night cruise 7pm

Can't wait to meet everyone!!!

Addressing several different posts.....
Soarin is one of my Must do's on the 31st... and I would love to meet people that can't make it to the other meets.... just let me know when.... and I agree, a meet should be just that a "meet" not a lifelong commitment.... but if I spot you in the park, on the bus, or at the resort I will probably give ya a wave "HELLO"
I too am shy, although I can push past it because of my job (as a cashier you HAVE to talk to people you don't know), but I run out of things to say quickly. Even chatting on here, I have to stop and think several times about what I need to say and then only say half of what I intended to say!
Now personally, I like the term "Pooh-sized", but fluffy works too....
BTW... the 31st will be my 36th birthday, but since we are doing all 4 parks in 3 days, I was considering wearing a birthday badge everyday!

Michelle,
I say wear the badge!! I am going to wear my birthday badge, also!!
As for the meet on the 31st. Step suggested a morning meet, which is excellent!( Soarin is very popular) I am thinking what time, and where? Even though I will be there at opening, it will still take me a little time to get over there.
