[December99]

Me and there are 4 people that aren't necessarily coming for DISCon but may join us - I have to verify this as it gets closer. I also have organized a table for dinner that I think is pretty full but there are some people that aren't sure if they are going home that day or not.

Me (December99)
AJB (aka Brent-AJB aka ravenmaniac)
AJB's wife
AJB's son
AJB's mother-in-law

AJB's family is tentative at this time but they said that they are going to try and plan to join us!

[Patinmn]

Patrick & Roger :D

[Smee]

Well, oh my heck YES!!!! I am there (I am thinking of doing 12/3 as well - it will depend on DC2 schedule)!!!!
I have to get my ticket yet...But my flights are confirmed now so I will probably see about getting it when I am at WDW in just over 2 weeks:D :D !

So, add me to the list, John!!!!
Corinne

[luvdsny]

:Pinkbounc Tia too! :Pinkbounc

[tammyh-oregon]

me too or maybe me two

I haven't got my tickets yet but don't forget John that we have a date for Buzz lightyear that night. (watch this year, we will get 000,000 points):p

Now who is volunteering to ride with DH while I ride with John?

PS is it me or have the colors changed on the boards?

[Smee]

I'll go on Buzz with your DH, Tammy.
Corinne

[disneycub]

Yep, there's been some subtle color changes, Tammy.

[December99]

I noticed the color changes and some changes with icons at the bottom of the PM page under user CP!!!!! :) They look cool!!!!!!

[RaySharpton]

Please add me, too...RaySharpton (1).

Thankyou, John, Have a great Memorial Day DIS mini-meet this week-end.

I haven't bought my MVMCP ticket yet either. I read another thread where a DISer was able to place Priorty Seating when tey bought their ticket. I know that they are saling a package with Liberty Tree Tavern, but I wonder if you can make a group Priorty Seating for Crystal Palace when you buy your MVMCP ticket?

RaySharpton :)

[MdmMim]

I'll be there! My ticket is packed! :)
(Going solo so just 1!) :D

[DumboOrBust]

<font face="comic sans ms"> John, Hi. :wave: I'll be there with Alan.

Dayna (2) </font>

[disneycub]

Ray, no you can't make a priority seating with a restaurant other the LTT when you order your MVMCP tickets. But come October 10th, I'll be making a PS for twelve at the CP. Don't have my PDA with me to list the names, but y'all know who you are.

I wonder if that's enough acronyms for one post..... :rolleyes:

[TheLorax2000]

Hi John,
I haven't bought tickets for MVMCP yet, but I plan on being at the night of the 8th. Looks like you need to put me down for 2 seems like my SO, Chuck, wants to come to DISCON.

Thanks so much, Carol

(btw, have a great time this Memorial weekend. Wish I could've been there!!)

[Pumbaa_]

Jody and Jody's Mom Carol will be there with bells on! (Or a micky hat, or ears, or something!)

[RaySharpton]

Thanks, Steve. You can go to my list below and see your list. I'll update them if I see them posted somewhere or you can post on my thread DIS-CON-II below.

I put a "GO TO" button by each DIS mini-meet so you don't have to scroll up and down...lol.

RaySharpton:)

[Pixie Power!]

Can you put me down for two please. Myself and fingers crossed Robin will be there. (Im trying to talk her into staying one extra night for this:D )

Chris (D99) are we still ok for two places on your table?

Thanks both,

Emma

[December99]

Yup...got your place held at my table Emma!!!! :)

[Sandra B.]

I'll be there too!
:bounce: :Pinkbounc :bounce:

[Barb]

LOL Steve! :D
When I see you all in person, I'll tell you the story of John's palm pilot! ;) :D :D ;) ROTFL!!!!!

[Towncrier]

BARB!!!

[disneycub]

Judging by John's reaction, it must be good. :D

[Barb]

**reminder to me: never eat or drink anything over the computer when you're reading the DIS!!!!!!! ROTFLMBO!!!!!!!!!!!:p :p :p :p :p :p

[December99]

Now wait...we gotta wait 6+ months before we find out about John's PalmPilot????? Double :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: !!! :D :D :D :D :D

[Towncrier]

If Personal Data Assistant = PDA, then Palm Pilot = ??

I keep telling my son James that my Palm Pilot is a PDA. He refuses to refer to it that way. He prefers a slightly shorter abbreviation. So you can imagine my son telling everyone that his dad has a lime green "PDA" and that he is always writing notes on it and can even take pictures with it.

We have descended to a whole new level of "PDA" humor at our home. And believe it or not, my DW Sue encourages him by her laughter. So the list of "PDA" jokes has become a running gag around our home.

I would suggest that we drop this particular topic until we see each other in person lest we raise the ire of the moderators.

[Barb]

Chris, John and I will both be in Chicago in July. You can hear all about it then! ;) :D :D

[Barb]

And, when you add someone with an "odd" sense of humor (Bill), thing's really get out of control!!!! ROTFL I'm still LOL!!!!! :D :D

[Smee]

John!...I can't wait 'til you
"show" us all your limegreen
"P......DA"!:D :p

[December99]

I probably can't be there in July but I get the "drift"..... :D :D :D :D :D

Case closed!!!! :D :D :D :D Poor John :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

[luvdsny]

OMG! :earseek: This is HYSTERICAL! :D
Poor John. :( NOT! :D :D :D Sorry, this is just too funny! :p

[Barb]

John, you have to admit, the whole thing is absolutely the funniest thing you've heard in a long time. I'm still laughing when I think about it! :D
You can get a LOT of mileage off this one silly little thing. :D :D

[luvdsny]

Barb, hey, shush! Men don't like it when you say little thing ;)

[Smee]

OMG!!!!! ROFLMBO!!!!!
You're right on both counts, Tia!
This is hysterical and (about men and that "little thing)
:D :D :p :D Corinne

[Barb]

ROTFLMBO, TOO!!!!!!!:p :p :p :p :p :p
That was a REALLY BIG OOPS!!!!!! Wasn't it?!?!? OMG!!!!!!!!!! I am LOL!!!!!!:p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p

[DixieDreamer]

Please add me to the list - DIXIEDREAMER. I have my ticket already!

[BarryCF]

Add me. I'll order my ticket next wk. As of right now this is a solo trip, but if I add anyone, I'll let you know.

Cheers:) :D :cool: :jester:

[Soccer Princess]

I'll be there on the 8th ! (with Mom) :D

[KarenNY]

[December99]

WOW....have you guys seen how this list has grown??? COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc

[Barb]

I was thinking the same thing, Chris! :D We'll have a great crowd on the 8th! I think we need to try a huge group ride somewhere. We did that on Pirates last year. What fun! :D :D :D

[disneycub]

We also did it for Splash Mountain, didn't we? Wasn't that the time when ... um .... someone .... high-centered the boat?

Oh, that was the Thrill Ride tour. That's right.... :D

We we all singing "Yo Ho, Yo Ho, A Pirate's Life for Me" at the top of our lungs on Pirates, weren't we?

[Towncrier]

How about a group picture? I know that we drove them absolutely crazy last year when we our group tried to squeeze into one photo.

[Barb]

Yeah, but the group photos are my favorite pictures from DIS-CON!!! :D :D :D I love the picture from MVMCP, the character breakfast and you just gotta love the Splash Mountain picture!!!!! :D :D:p :p

[Barb]

I just read on All Ears that the CP will be closed until 12/15! So it looks like we may be doing Chef Mickey's that night. Or do we want to try for somewhere inside the park, like Tony's or the castle?? :(

[disneycub]

I'd suggest Chef Mickey's, mostly because I think they'd be able to accommodate several large tables, which is what we'll need. Plus the castle dinner is pretty pricey (not that everything else isn't) :rolleyes: Also, we could take the monorail over to the MK or walk (for those so inclined).

[Towncrier]

Another vote for Chef Mickey's.

[Pixie Power!]

Ive never been to Chef Mickey's can someone tell me more about it :D

Thanks

Emma

[Barb]

Emma, it's a character meal with Chef Goofy, Chef Mickey, (I think)Chip and Dale, and who else? Does Max show up here? It's a very neat place for a rowdy group to go to eat. They play this one song where everyone swings their napkin in the air to the music. Also, it's a buffet style meal with lots of choices and a really extensive ice cream bar. I think it will be lots of fun for all of us to eat there-we'll have the best time!! :D :D

[disneycub]

Ice Cream Bar????? Yum! Guess you can tell I've never eaten at Chef Mickey's either. :rolleyes:

[Pixie Power!]

Thanks Barb, its sounds like a lot of fun!!

Emma

[December99]

Another hand up for Chef Mickey's also. I've eaten at Chef Mickey's for breakfast but not for lunch or dinner so I'd love to try dinner there. The breakfast was alot of fun!!! Plus they do have an area that is by the windows that will hold larger group of people so maybe we'd be lucky and get seated there :) :) :) :)

[Barb]

Chris, I was thinking the same thing. That section by the window would be perfect for all of us. I wonder what it would take to reserve a section for a big group? Mmmm.......I may just have to make a phone call or two. :D

[December99]

Hmmmmmm.....let me know Barb!!!!! Hmmmmm....I can see the Orlando news stations now....

50 or so DISConers Take Over CHEF MICKEY'S - film at 5!!!!! ROFLMBO

Here's the story from the Orlando Sentinal....

Mickey Learns How to "Food Fight"
A group of DIS Conventioners make their mark on Mickey...Chef Mickey's that is. A very popular restaurant for vacationers at Walt Disney World's resort, Chef Mickey's pleases the palate as well as entertains the guests. During the ever popular character meal, guests are invited to swing their napkins in the air with Mickey, Minnie, Pluto and other characters.

However, this ever so large group decided to have a bit of fun on Mickey. As the music was starting, out of their bags and backpacks came their character (no pun intended) color lime green colored napkins that replaced the hunter green ones used at the restaurants. Some were even filled with pieces of food to replicate the use of the buffet table. A few in particular decided to go seek out Mickey and show him how to REALLY use a napkin and told him NOT to warn Pluto....it would be a snack for the oversized dog later!!!! Also seen were several of the guests from the group getting on top of their chairs so that the food particles would travel farther. At some point, one of the guests thought they heard a child yell "food fight" and thus began the ever exciting and bit tantilizing food fight at Chef Mickey's!!

:D :D :D :D :D :D

<i>Please note - this is not real and has never been attempted at Walt Disney World. The above story is false and WILL NOT happen :D </i>

[Barb]

ROTFL, Chris! That is too funny! :D :D :D I love it! :D
Another bonus at Chef MIckey's is the group photo they take just before you get seated!!!!:eek: ;)

[December99]

Do you think we will be able to fit 50 people in one photo??????? OMG...this could be too much fun!!!!!! ROFL

[disneycub]

I just checked the PS Calculator (thanks Barb!) and August 10th is the day we need to call CRO for PS's to Chef Mickey's.

[Towncrier]

Hey - August 10th is our 17th wedding anniversary!!! :)
(I may be too preoccupied to make a PS)

[December99]

TC...last check you were at my table....

Does it matter how many at a table or are we just going to make one PS? Would someone like me to call and see how many people they book on one PS??? I would be more than happy to do that.

[Patinmn]

Out of curiosity, How much is Chef Mickeys?

[Towncrier]

Chef Mickey's - Contemporary Resort - Relocated during 1996 to the Contemporary , Chef Mickey's now serves breakfast and dinner with Chef Mickey, Chip, Dale and Chef Goofy . The breakfast buffet offers the usual items - eggs, breads, meats, fresh fruit, etc. At dinner there is a salad bar, peel and eat shrimp, soups, hot entrees, breads, carved meats, vegetables, desserts and an ice cream bar with a great variety of toppings. All characters visit guests tables except Goofy who seems to holds court in the waiting area. Breakfast $15.95-A and $8.95-C. Dinner $21.95-A/$9.95-C. Priority seating is recommended.

Chris - As far as I know, I'm still at your table.

[RaySharpton]

I can't wait to meet all you guys, and I'll go with the disneycub table.

RaySharpton

[JamesD]

You can tentatively put us down for the Dec. 8 MVMCP. That will be a party of 2 (Linda and JamesD.)
We're considering eating at the Liberty Tree Tavern beforehand. Thanks and we look forward to seeing some familiar faces.

[December99]

I just got off the phone with Chef Mickey's and this will be easy. We can make the reservation at least 60 days in advance (sooner if needed). They can hold up to 373 people (so no maximum on one PS). They require a credit card just to hold the ressie (no problem) and they can only do one seating - 5:00pm!!!!

If you ask me...this is almost too perfect! We can add or take off the original ressie up to 48 hours before the dinner.

So...I am still thinking that Chef Mickey's is the place to go!!!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Just an FYI - I am in the process of calling and finding out information about making a PS at Chef Mickey's for Dec. 8 and how we go about doing it for such a large group. We currently have approximately 40 people right now on the list above (I've added a few to the count that I know are unsures). I will post about anything that we need to do.

I first called Disney Dining, they gave me the number for Group Dining who I just called and they in turn gave me the number directly to Chef Mickey's and told me they can give me all the information as some restaurants have their own policies. So I will be calling Chef Mickey's in a bit to gather as much "group dining" info as I can....I'll post as I get info!!!!

[RaySharpton]

Bravo...December99!

RaySharpton :)

[December99]

I'm sorry...I hope I didn't just take this over. It definitely wasn't my intent. I meant to post that and forgot. Hope I'm not stepping on any toes or anything by doing this and checking this out.

Its going to be so much fun, all of us together!!!!

Emma

[RaySharpton]

Absolutely not, December99. Speaking for myself, I like information. And I really, really appreciate that you are taking the tim to do all this research. It's going to be so cool for all of us to be together. And since it looks like Crystal Palace may be closed, we need more options.

Anyway, we can't make Priority Seatings until 60 days before December 8, 2002 or about October 8, 2002.

I get the feeling that the Crystal Palace may be mostly torn down and completely rebuilt even bigger and fancier. Maybe that is why the rehab is taking six months.

Anyway, I'm still keeping Crystal Palace in the back of my mind, just in case it reopens early.

And with the information that you gave it's good to know that you can cancel and change things up to 48 hours.

I think that it's important to plan, because we won't be the only ones calling for ps that day.

I hope that no one thinks that you are stepping on toes. I sure don't think that of you. I think that you'll find some pretty nice folks here. If someone is so petty and high schoolish to pick on you......weeeellllll...you just let me know and I'll....I'll...I'll do somthin...lol

RaySharpton:)

[December99]

Thanks Ray...I just didn't want to be stepping in and "taking" over on this.

I can call tomorrow and make the ressie, with group ressies you can call up until 60 days out. They want the ressie made by 60 days out so we can't wait until October to make it. I think what I'll do is go ahead and call and make the ressie tomorrow and hold it. If we decide to cancel it, then we decide to cancel it. At least we will have a place held for us and I would think that by 60 days out, we will have a more accurate count also, not that we would need one.

This IS gonna be fun!!!!! Not that it wasn't but just imagining 50 or DISers flying their napkins in the air...there's just something about it that makes me all fuzzy!!!! :D :D :D :D

[Pixie Power!]

Emma

[Barb]

Chris, what a sweetie you are. You are not "taking over" at all. This is great news!! Thanks for doing this. You're heading for "commando" status at an alarming rate! LOL :D
Not all of us can make the phone calls or arrangements, so by you doing this, it really helps out the group. We love that! :D :D
I think this will a rip-roaring fun time, for sure!! It will be a great way to start off the evening! :D :D
Way to go, Chris! :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc

Ray, you don't fool me, you're too nice to "do something". You're just a big teddy bear in red white and blue. :D :D :D

[disneycub]

Chris: You go, girl! How many are you gonna make the ressie for? I had twelve or thirteen that were part of my table.

Thanks for taking this on. I'd say you've gone commando. :rolleyes:

And Ray: EXACTLY what Barb said. You don't fool me either. ;)

[Towncrier]

I'm confused. I thought that Ray was a "BIG DOG". :D

[RaySharpton]

Well...I do wear Big Dogs...lol.

[luvdsny]

I love coming to this thread.......makes me :) :) :)

Chris, please add me to your Chef Mickey's list. :) Thanks. :) I'm part of Steve's table, so don't add me extra if you're just going to add Steve's table. :)

[Barb]

Ray-ROTFLMBO!!!!!:p :p :p :p :p I got a Big Dog's email selling stuff for Father's Day and I just about fell on the floor laughing! :D :D That's our Ray, a teddy bear in....well, you know! ;) LOL
Chris, I think we already had about 4 or 5 tables in progress. Most tables were for 10, give or take. So I think you're estimate of 50 (to start) is pretty good.
Thanks, again, for taking the reigns on this one. :D :D :D

[December99]

Okay...I'm going to call this afternoon and start the ressie at 50. I was going by the roll-call list that TC has on the first page. That has 36 people and I added 4 to that I think might be joining us but are waiting for the "official" word (mainly my roomies and a couple of other people :D :D ). I will post later today after I get the call made - this morning is just a pain in the butt and I know I won't get it done until later this afternoon.

Oh by the way...did you know that....

[Pixie Power!]

You are such a star Chris, I think your climbing the ranks in true commando style:D

Thanks again

Emma

[December99]

Kinda funny cause I'm not a commando type person!!!! This could be very interesting!!! :D :D :D :D

[luvdsny]

:o Oh Chris, that's how most people feel about themselves. :o But somehow the 'commando bug' bites even the most down-to-earth and relaxed type when they least expect it. So, unless you're in a coma, it's entirely possible that you've been bitten. ;) Thanks for taking this bull by the horns. :D I can't wait either. :)

[KarenNY]

Anybody have room for 1 more at their table? I just got my MVMCP ticket and would love to start the evening off at Chef Mickey's with you all.:Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc

[CarolA]

John,
Well, since I booked Patricks Hoop Dee Do for the 3rd, I think I had better just extend my stay for one day and plan on MVMCP for the 8th. So add me to your list!

[disneycub]

John and Chris:

You may want to add 1 more under my name to the list. A friend of mine in Orlando might want to join us.

[luvdsny]

:Pinkbounc :bounce: :Pinkbounc Yay Carol! :Pinkbounc :bounce: :Pinkbounc
Who else wants to follow Carol's lead? :D

[NancyIL]

I added an extra day last year for MVMCP - but I really can't this year. So - I'll be at MVMCP on the 3rd.

[Lesley]

Me, my dh and my kids will be there for MVMCP....so that's 4 more!

Oh, my, I just read through the thread .....Chef Mickey's? Hmmmm....we weren't going to do that one this time....but what the heck! Count us in!

Sounds like y'all will be quite a bad influence on my kids!!!!!!!:jester:

Oh, and since no one has mentioned it....we've seen Donald at Chef Mickey's all three times we've been there. He stays out near the entrance....Mickey, Minnie, Chip, Dale and Goofy come to the tables...though sometimes Goofy stays with Donald. Great place!

[disneycub]

A lot of us are still kids, and we'll do everything in our power to make sure your kids misbe....I mean.....behave! ;)

[Smee]

Hurray Chris!!! Nice goin'!!!:bounce: :bounce: :bounce:
I will be there,...but like Tia said, I was at Steve's table so you might already have me on your list...if not, please add me!!!!
I bought my MVMCP ticket for Dec. 8th while I was at WDW last week!!!!!!!!!
Corinne:Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc

[December99]

Okay...so Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday were not the best days for me to be on the phone so I didn't get the call made. But this afternoon proves to be more free than any day so I will make the call today. Sorry for the delay but I will keep in touch on this!!!!

Sooooooooooooo many people going to make it...this is cool!!!!

[disneycub]

Free time on a Monday, Chris? I'm lucky if I can breathe on Mondays. :rolleyes:

[RaySharpton]

Thank you, December99!

[December99]

Phone call number 1 has been made. Got voice mail so I left a message!

[perfectmatch300]

Looks like we are going to be able to be there. :bounce: :Pinkbounc :bounce:
Can we still be added to the group for dinner at Chef Mickey's??? Chris, I'll send you a PM about it. It will be DH, Barry and me. :D

[PandyPaws]

I'll be there ! Is there still room to be added to the Chef Mickey's group?

[bashful64]

Ordered my MVMCP ticket today! Can I get added to the Chef Mickey list?

I sent you a PM Chris.

Thanks

[Pumbaa_]

Me too! I just sent you a PM Chris.

[perfectmatch300]

Keep me on that list for Chef Mickey's! Our MVMCP tickets arrived in the mail the other day, AND our timeshare request came through with Monday checkout, so we won't have to worry about moving! That means we check in on Mon. 12/2 and check out on Mon 12/9. :D
We may have to stay off grounds, but it sure will help with our budget. I'm already spending more than double what we spent last year! :earseek: Besides, the timeshare we will be at is Marriott Cypress Harbor. We stayed there a couple of years ago & really liked it a lot!
Once I get my internet changeover done sometime this week, I'll have to set up one of those countdown clock thingies! I'm getting really excited now that I know we are really going, and we'll be able to stay for all of DIS-CON! :Pinkbounc :bounce: :Pinkbounc :bounce:

[rhodgkie]

Just got tickets for me and DW.

See ya all there!

Randall

[Barb]

Chris, I am on your list, aren't I? It's getting so I can't remember what I did and didn't do!!!:confused: :rolleyes: :confused:

[Towncrier]

I know that you DH Bill is on MY list. :D :D :D

[December99]

I will be doing a ps for about 50 people to start and if we need to add more then that's fine. We can all work out table situations after I find out from them how many will be able to sit at a table and hopefully they can tell me where we will be sitting (or approximate anyway). I'm hoping they will give us that seating area that is in front of the windows that looks outside - that would be too cool!!!! I'm going to request that area anyway. So stay tuned and watch on August 10 for the post after I make the ressie (I probably won't be able to post until the afternoon due to I have Market Day that morning right after I make the call!!!!).

[luvdsny]

Thank you Chris. I can't tell you how much I appreciate you doing this. :D

[Barb]

ROTFL, John!! He's contstantly on my list, too!! ;) :D :D
Thanks, Chris, you're a real sweetie for doing this! :) I'll be waiting patiently for August 10th! ;)

[bashful64]

I hope I am still on the list. Thanks for taking care of this for all of us. It is greatly appreciated.

[Towncrier]

Barb - That's sweet of you to wait for our (Sue's and my) 17th wedding anniversary on August 10th. I didn't know you cared. :D

[Barb]

John you know me, I'm just a sweetie at heart. ;) :):)

[bashful64]

My ticket to MVMCP just arrived by courier today! :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[RaySharpton]

Thank you, Chris. I can't remember if I asked to be on your list for Chef Mickey's either. I hope that I am.

[Beanie]

Yea! I will be there too!! Please add me and DH to the list!!! Can't wait...ordered my tickets today!!!!

[Fantasia Sam]

I've ordered my ticket and PM'd Chris - so hopefully count me in.

[CDoobee]

Debbie:earsgirl:

[luvdsny]

:bounce: ;) Wow! This list is getting CRAZY! ;) :bounce:

[Towncrier]

Just a bump to say that the list is still growing (and to get it back onto page 1).

[tammyh-oregon]

We are definitely a twosome

but don't forget John that we still have that Date
I'm just planning on dumping Joe for whoever will have him.;)

[dbail2]

We have our tickets and the 5 of us will be there..........
Debbie

[zurgswife]

Zurg and Zurgswife will be there...so count us for 2

[crazyforgoofy]

Gary and I will be hanging out on a snowy Main Street on my birthday, Dec 8. Will have a lime green ribbon somewhere so hope to bump into a few of you. Gary's health issues preclude me from being away from him long enough to attend DISCON but he's aiming to be up to the fun of the evening at MK. I've come to know a lot of you by your "handles" and would love to say hello if the opportunity allows. This will be my third visit to WDW during Christmas holidays but first time at MVMCP! Can't wait!

Happy birthday to me! :earsgirl:
Happy holidays to each and every one of you! :wave:

[jfulcer]

TC,

DW, DD, DD, & I WILL B THERE.

[December99]

Hey John...can you please add StaceyA for 2 to the list??!! Thanks. They won't be able to join us for dinner but they will try to meet up with us during the night!!!!!

[jfulcer]

They'll let us all pose for one of those 'free' pictures together.

They'd have to pull the camera WAAAAAAAAAY back.

We should all plan to meet at a certain time in front of the castle for a group DIS picture, at least...

[Towncrier]

We tried to get a group picture last year, but our groups were scattered about the park for the entire evening. Perhaps if we all arrive at about the same time (or agree on a time), we can manage the castle picture.

[figmentvi]

What I'm going to try with our group on 12/3, is have them all meet at the picture taking spot that's in Liberty Square at about 7:30 pm. It's also a great parade watching spot !!!

[Towncrier]

You want to meet while it's still daylight if at all possible. Otherwise, you need one POWERFUL flash!!!

[KelliR]

I'll be there for the first time...and with my DH!:p

[4greatboys]

Im going Dec 8th..just purchased my ticket today. Looks like Im headed to Dis con:teeth:

[Smee]

:bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:
YAY, Deena!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now, where are you staying ??? When are you arriving????leaving???? Coming solo?????
:teeth: :teeth: :teeth: :teeth: :teeth: :teeth: :teeth: :teeth:
I'm looking forward to meeting you!
Corinne

[4greatboys]

I havent got my ticket yet but will prob come late Dec or maybe the 5th and leaving Dec 9--early am (I wanted to go to mvmcp with other ppl--looks like lots going Dec 8). So far I have a ressie at ASmu. I really, really want AKL but the codes for the good rates are all sold out. If anyone has a room there and wants to share that would be great. I know its kinda far, but no farther that the AS. Im will prob be alone. My family is going to see the mouse this Friday!!! Staying for 7 days YC then 2 days RPR at US.
Although I feel bad about not bringing my 2 yr old to see Disney at Christmas time. Im very excited about meeting the ppl I have been chatting and posting with.

[luvdsny]

Jeff, last year 14 of us squished into a picture! LOL It was pretty difficult. :rolleyes: I think parties of 10 and less would be better. LOL

Also, the best time to take the picture is actually AT dinner. Once we broke from dinner last year, everyone went their seperate ways. :( No biggy. It's just the way it has to be in order to 'move'. LOL It's not easy to 'move' large groups. :rolleyes: ;) :p

[luvdsny]

:earseek: What a crowd!!! :) :bounce:

[AJB]

I'm official now, got my tix in the mail this past weekend. Can't wait to see all your smiling faces. It will be 4 of us, maybe BIL, niece and roomate might tag along also.

[Zarr aka Joe]

Count me in -- I just bought my ticket! :D

Unfortunately, I'm flying home on the morning of Monday 12/9 and have to go into work that afternoon. Oh well, tis the price I pay for escaping to DIS Con! :D

[RaySharpton]

Wow! 82 DISers at MVMCP!

Welcome everyone, and thank you John for the list.

Ray :)

[December99]

Just a reminder that there is plenty of room for you to join us at Chef Mickey's at 5pm before MVMCP for dinner if you'd like!!!! Just send me a PM!

[nativetxn]

Count me in please?

[RaySharpton]

Cool beans!:)

[disfan100]

Sorry to reply so late!

Have ticket in hand and expect to close the park again this year...

[Princess Michelle]

I got my ticket in the mail today, Hurray! I'm so excited! :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc

[Tinkerbel129]

Add 3 more for MVMCP on the 8th, Walt (dh), Dean - buzzlightyear (ds) and myself. We will be eating at Tony's for dinner, anybody else eating there?

[JamesD]

Yes, we are thinking about it, Lori!
We wanted to be able to see the MK tree lighting, so I think we have ressies for 5:15 pm. Glad you and the family are going to be there that night!

[Shontell_Crawford]

Please add me - 2 adults. What fun!

All the best,
Shontell

[TrudyZ]

Towncrier:

Count us in (3--myself, my husband, and my 4 year old daughter) too--that is, if I can still get tickets!

Could you PM me re: the DVC mini-meet details? I remember reading about something at BC; but I have been out of commission for the last several weeks and just getting back on the boards. Waaaaay behind in planning for our trip in which we leave in a week!! (Not to mention a Thanksgiving dinner to cook in the mean time!)

Nothing serious--just constant morning sickness--the silver lining is that it is a good excuse to do another point add on;)

Trudy

[Pocahontas1]

Pocohontas1 - There will be three of us. DH, DS (2 1/2) and me!!!

Can't wait.

[BobBrazeal]

I'll be there. I have my ticket and I'm ready.
