Journey into Imagination before DATW meet-Update in first post-Meet outside the ride.

[safetymom]

Update:12/7 meet outside the ride. We will be riding at 5 PM. I will be standing by the umbrella outside of the ride. I will be wearing a Purple tie dyed Figment shirt.


Looking forward to seeing everyone. Anyone interested in riding Journey before DATW in December for DAP? I thought of this while riding it last night. My daughter thought no one would want to ride it. Imagine the look of surprise on Pete's face when he sees how many rode it.

How about it? Any of my peeps want to join me before DATW?

[BriarRosie]

I think it would be more interesting to ride it after DATW. :rolleyes1

But yeah, I'm game.

[k5jmh]

One Little Spark, of inspiration....leads to drunken perspiration.

We will try to be there!

[figment3258]

If I was going I would be all over it. My favorite ride. Have a great time!

[robind]

Sounds like a plan to me, I'll be there.

[wdwfreeksince88]

Sure we will be in!!

[Madi100]

I LOVE that ride. Name the time.

[georgemoe]

Do you have a bet with Pete Kathy? :rotfl:

[Cyrano]

If we were there I would have come to ride Figment. Love the end with the singing moon :goodvibes

[jeanigor]

I think it would be a fun thing to do...before and after...assuming we can behave ourselves (and the pavilion is still open)

[crazydisneyman]

Can you imagine Brandie, Jen, and Todd riding the Journey into Imagination?

I would pay money to see that!

[robind]

I think it would be a fun thing to do...before and after...assuming we can behave ourselves (and the pavilion is still open)

Paleese, when do we not behave ourselves - we are all little angels.:littleangel:

[jeanigor]

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiight:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

[georgemoe]

Paleese, when do we not behave ourselves - we are all little angles.:littleangel:

I'll be the complimentary angle. :)

[jeanigor]

I'll be the complimentary angle. :)

Impossible. Obtuse angles can't be complimentary. :laughing::laughing::laughing: (Sorry Señor...couldn't help it.)

Math Humor!!!!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Loves it!

[baby1disney]

That is priceless!!

This is the ride that has the Kodak place at the end right??

[anonymousegirl]

Count me in! What time?

[dpuck1998]

I'm there! Can I ride with Teresa?

[L.E. Ott]

I think it would be a fun thing to do...before and after...assuming we can behave ourselves (and the pavilion is still open)

I'll be the angel thats trying to throw an olive into Figment's mouth....

[aspen37]

Sounds like a plan, add me to the list. :goodvibes

[jeanigor]

That is priceless!!

This is the ride that has the Kodak place at the end right??

Yup. But more importantly.....

Figment!!!!

Can you imagine Brandie, Jen, and Todd riding the Journey into Imagination?

I would pay money to see that!Exactly what are you implying there, crazy? :upsidedow

I'm there! Can I ride with Teresa?I think that Don should have to ride with all of his wives...:laughing:

[scarlett873]

I'm in...assuming my BFF is in too...:thumbsup2

[crazydisneyman]

Exactly what are you implying there, crazy? :upsidedow

Well, you guys are more crazy than I am. So, that ride could be very interesting...

[Launchpad11B]

Oh no, not figment. Say it ain't so Kathy. I'll need some convincing. pirate:

[jeanigor]

Well, you guys are more crazy than I am. So, that ride could be very interesting...

Why, sir, do you beseech the good names of these fair maidens? I can understand me...but them?

[Launchpad11B]

Why, sir, do you beseech the good names of these fair maidens? I can understand me...but them?

Yeah Chris, watch it! :cool2:

[OKW Lover]

I'll go. Val says she will go too as long as it doesn't cut into here pre-DATW margarita time in Mexico.

Imagine a whole string load of DIS'ers riding the ride singing (off key) "one little spark" the whole way through. We'd probably never make it to DATW.

It's horrible to say..................but I hate that ride. :sad2:

[scarlett873]

Well, you guys are more crazy than I am. So, that ride could be very interesting...
I dunno about that...I wasn't the one who was lip syncing to the Little Mermaid song at the Indy meet...:rolleyes1

[k5jmh]

I'm there! Can I ride with Teresa?

Somehow, Don's spellchecker put in the word "with."

:love:

[shellyminnie]

It's horrible to say..................but I hate that ride. :sad2:

:scared1::scared1::scared1: Now, you definitely have to do it!!!

I dunno about that...I wasn't the one who was lip syncing to the Little Mermaid song at the Indy meet...:rolleyes1

:lmao::lmao::lmao:. Wasn't he the one that was being chased around the room by Tracy?? :rolleyes1

[Madi100]

Exactly what are you implying there, crazy? :upsidedow

I think that Don should have to ride with all of his wives...:laughing:


Um, this is the Journey Into Imagination. That just opens all sorts of things for his imagination.

[scarlett873]

Um, this is the Journey Into Imagination. That just opens all sorts of things for his imagination.Oh...you have a point there...i'm not sure I want to take a journey into Don's imagination...:scared1:

[OKW Lover]

It's horrible to say..................but I hate that ride. :sad2:

Well, I'd admit that its not everybody's laughing place. I certainly enjoyed the original version much more than the current one.

But I'll do this for Kathy - I'm one of her peeps and I love Figment.
:figment:

[georgemoe]

It's horrible to say..................but I hate that ride. :sad2:

Are you saying we just meet them in Canada? :smooth:

[Madi100]

Somehow, Don's spellchecker put in the word "with."

:love:


Wow! Just Wow!

[Launchpad11B]

Are you saying we just meet them in Canada? :smooth:

George, we can journey into the figment ride using our imaginations while sipping tequila at the new bar in Mexico! Does that count?

[dpuck1998]

Exactly what are you implying there, crazy? :upsidedow

I think that Don should have to ride with all of his wives...:laughing:

Done! one at a time?

Oh no, not figment. Say it ain't so Kathy. I'll need some convincing. pirate:

You can fit all the wives on one ride!

Somehow, Don's spellchecker put in the word "with."

:love:

OMG! bwaaahaaaa :rotfl2:

[crazydisneyman]

I dunno about that...I wasn't the one who was lip syncing to the Little Mermaid song at the Indy meet...:rolleyes1

True.

I was wondering when that little tidbit was going to come out.

Separately, these people are harmless, but together, who knows what could happen? :thumbsup2

[TXYankee]

George, we can journey into the figment ride using our imaginations while sipping tequila at the new bar in Mexico! Does that count?


Come on Boys, Cowboy Up.
Are you one of Kathy's Peeps or not?
Tequlia first, Imaginations second.
At least she did not request Energy before DATW!

[Disneybridein2k3]

Oh...you have a point there...i'm not sure I want to take a journey into Don's imagination...:scared1:
:rotfl2:Truer words were never spoken (or in this case, typed).

Count me in Kathy. Normally this one is a pass, but for you, anything. :flower3:

[Disneybridein2k3]

Separately, these people are harmless, but together, who knows what could happen? :thumbsup2
AMEN!!!! :crazy: That is exactly what I was thinking about DATW too!

[L.E. Ott]

Looks like Todd will be taking a Journey Into Nausea after we do DATW......See the DATW post for enlightenment.

[dpuck1998]

Oh...you have a point there...i'm not sure I want to take a journey into Don's imagination...:scared1:

Ohhh me thinks you would! There isn't a ride at Disney that could top what is going on in my head!!

[AnneR]

This one sounds like too much fun to pass up. Count me in.

[safetymom]

Wow, I come home from the Podcast and all these replies. :) I know this isn't everyones favorite ride but it doesn't last that long. :)

What time works best to kick off the festivities?

[chirurgeon]

I like this ride and I LOVE Figment. So, depending on the timing of things, count me in.

Kim

[BriarRosie]

Wow, I come home from the Podcast and all these replies. :) I know this isn't everyones favorite ride but it doesn't last that long. :)

What time works best to kick off the festivities?

Well, I might want to hang with Val in the Tequila Ditch, ordering up some guacamole and tostadas with my incredibly expensive 'Rita. I say that because we're starting in Canada, and I don't want to take any chances I won't make it around to Mexico. :laughing:

[kymickeyfan717]

Count me in - I love that ride. I ride it every time I visit ....:thumbsup2

[Disneybridein2k3]

Ohhh me thinks you would! There isn't a ride at Disney that could top what is going on in my head!!
Ew.

[DVCsince02]

Can you imagine Brandie, Jen, and Todd riding the Journey into Imagination?

I would pay money to see that!

Pay up buster! I'm in!

I'm in...assuming my BFF is in too...:thumbsup2

Yup!

Well, you guys are more crazy than I am. So, that ride could be very interesting...

:dance3:

Why, sir, do you beseech the good names of these fair maidens? I can understand me...but them?

Hey?

Yeah Chris, watch it! :cool2:

Doesn't matter to me, just want to stop at the DVC Merry Member mixer and get my free loot first. That starts at 4 (I think), so 5 o'clock and then DATW is at 5:30.

[jeanigor]

Hey?
I was just looking out for ya!

Doesn't matter to me, just want to stop at the DVC Merry Member mixer and get my free loot first. That starts at 4 (I think), so 5 o'clock and then DATW is at 5:30.

Is that a confirmed time for the Merry Mixer?

[jen3003]

You can count me in and my son as well!!!

If past years are any guide, it should start at 3PM. I haven't seen any confirmed times yet. I will keep checking though and post findings.

Paul and I still aren't convinced about this purple puppy stuff. We are on the "go ahead" plan right now. :duck:

[UrsulasShadow]

Come on Boys, Cowboy Up.
Are you one of Kathy's Peeps or not?
Tequlia first, Imaginations second.
At least she did not request Energy before DATW!

You can ride Imagination if you want, but I'm going over to Ellen's Energy Adventure...Stupid Judy, stupid energy!

Planning on getting a good nap in before trekking around the world? Good plan. Don't want DD to out do you. Said with all love and respect and full expectation of retaliatory smack/ chucked piece of shrubbery.

[IWISHFORDISNEY]

We are up for this name the time!!

[SamSam]

If we get to Orlando in time, Dh and I are in for this. The original Imagination is still my favorite, but Figment is wonderful in any of the re-makes.

Wow, I get to see you twice this year? :faint:
Double spooky if we end up neighbors at BCV, provided that's where you're
staying this time.

I forgot about the Merry Member Mixer thingie. I will gladly accept hitchhiking DISers who need a DVC member to get the free tchotchke. :)

[OKW Lover]

Two tiny wings,
Eyes bright and yellow,
Horns of a Steer,
What a lovable fellow,
From head to tail he's royal purple pigment,
And there viola you've got a :figment:

[Mouse Skywalker]

I'm a fan of Journey into Imagination too. Although, I liked the original version better.

[kimisabella]

I have to admit I've never been on this ride before :eek:
We'll probably be able to make it since we will have some time in between our late lunch and DATW

[tlcoke]

COunt me in Kathy.

Ah,yes...we are shadowing you. :goodvibes Seriously, we are squeezing this trip in very last minute, between a very tight work schedule. I actually have the flights but we are waitlisted for AKV for this quick stay. We will definitely be looking for you during our food and wine stay, and then again for this PARTY!
We are staying at AKV and at BCV for Food and Wine, I believe we will be at BCV during the time you are there. I'm hoping we'll be neighbors again!

I also forgot about a Merry Mixer, is it on Sat.?

[SamSam]

Kathy, Have you decided on a time yet?

[bannermouse]

Count me and Nannyrose in. I havn't been on this ride in a decade or two. I had to ask Nannyrose what it was about. I vaguely remember it from my youth. Should be fun to do since I do not really remember it.

Bannermouse:thumbsup2

[krissy2803]

Count us in too!
See y'all there,
Krissy

[Annette_VA]

Sounds good to me!

[Ms. Belle]

I've been looking for this thread for days! Count me and my son in; we love this ride.

Is there a time yet?

[BilltM]

My plan is to be at EPCOT all day Friday. If nothing changes between now and then, I'll stop by for the ride.

[SFBayDon]

What time are you planning to do this? Need to work this into my excel spreadsheet.

Be my guest sir!
This is why I posted it.
Now for a confession.
I "borrowed" the artwork and just added the text, so I can't take all the credit.

[AlexDurrani]

I'll definitely be there for the Imagination meet. That will definitely put everyone in a mood for drinks. :rotfl2::cool1::lmao::rotfl:

Finally got my schedule arranged so that we can get to Epcot in time for the Peeps meet.
