[RaySharpton]

That looks great Patrick. It just wouldn't be official without your itinerary. Thank you for wotking on this even though you just finished final exams, and going to schoo and working and worrying about your job and all.

I can't wait to see you and Roger again.

Count me in for the Blizzard Beach mini-meet.

And I signed up early for Brisully's fishing DIS mini-meet just to spend some time with Patrick IL. and Brisully, sine I hardly got to see them last year.

I'm going to try and go to all the
Newbie DIS mini-meets, too.

Now I need to start working on my itinerary and try to figure out how I'm going to do everything...lol.

Thank you again Patrick.

Best wishes on your job. We are all thinking about you.

Sincerely, Ray :)

[luvdsny]

Thank You Patrick. :) You and Barb have done a great job here. :)

BTW, Brian does have 2 fishing mini meets, so that's cool. :)

I'm going to go peak at it now. :) Thanks again Patrick. :)

[Snowwark]

Thank you Patrick, this is wonderful! :) I would of been lost without the itinerary you made last year, so I know how important this is going to be to me! Thanks again for all of your hard work. :)

Kim :)

[DaveH]

Patrick it looks great. The 50's meet is at 3:30PM so everyone can make DATW.

Dave

[Barb]

Thank you so much, Patrick! It looks great!! :)
Brian's two fishing meets are closed. He has a full crew for each meet. :)
I already have a good size list for the tea, so you can just put down "waiting for further info" on that. And, Dave just told you about the time change on the Prime Time meet. So I think we're all set for now. :teeth:
Just remember, this is a rough draft and things can change. We can make changes, too if we feel they don't fit in properly. We're open to all suggestions, as long as they're nice ones. ;) ;)
The Fort Wilderness campfire meet is on hold pending interest.
Deb's (Cdoobee) would like to host a golf meet, possilbly on Saturday opposite the GF tea. Is anyone interested???
As for the official events, CC can you fill in the places for those? Thanks!!

Have fun!!!!!:bounce: :bounce:

[December99]

That is so cool Pat!!!!! Thanks for doing this....now I can start plunking things into my Itiner and see what I'm doing when and when I can sleep!!!!! :D :D

[CarolA]

Thanks! This is great!

[OkieDisney]

Patrick....

The Dec 3 meet is at 9:00 a.m. at Cape May for Bfst
The Dec 4 (Dopey) meet is at 9:00 a.m. at Spoodles

At the risk of being at all "commandoish" I would LOVE to see the RnR/ToT meet on Thursday....combined with the Turkey Leg meet

Karen

[OkieDisney]

Patrick

Great work!!!


Karen

[KarenNY]

It looks great!

[JamesD]

This is great Patrick!
Please change the time for the WWTBAM meet on Thursday to 12:30-2:30 pm. This allows us to catch a couple of shows between lunch and the parade, and still make it to DaveH's meet at 3:30 pm.
Thanks again for the great effort!

[disneycub]

Thank you Patrick!!

Hey Glo, can we put this thread on top with the other IMPORTANT: threads? That way we won't lose track.

[glo]

Hey Steve!!!

YOu have to ask Marsha or Beanie...I am not a MOD on this board... :)

You guys can keep bumping it too... :)

[Smee]

Excellent work Patrick!!!!!!!!!! Thank you so much for getting to this soooooo quickly!!
Corinne

[NancyIL]

Thanks, Patrick...looks great!

One question - there's no Osborne Lights viewing on there - now that DATW is on Thursday night. :( How about a 6:00 Osborne Lights viewing on Wednesday night - before the opening reception at 7:00?

[Patinmn]

I have made the changes requested.


For anyone interested in Hosting a meet, or suggestions for meets - please send all requests to Barb. She is in charge of them, and when she gives them the OK I will add them to the Itinerary.

Nancy - Please PM Barb with your request - Also let her know if you are willing to host it too.

[disneycub]

Sorry Glo, I thought all you MODS had all-encompassing whatevers. ;) I'll PM WCC.

[Towncrier]

Patrick - I've been trying to PM you all day. Your mailbox is full.

The only correction (so far) is that DATW III should actually be DATW IV. Not a big deal.

The itinerary looks great. I've printed out the first of many copies. Thanks again ever so much for taking on this awesome responsibility.

[Patinmn]

Ok John... I cleaned out my PM Box and changed it to IV.

Sure would be nice if there was a way for them to tell you when your mailbox was full.

[Towncrier]

Thanks Patrick - I guess that means that the version I printed out this morning is already obsolete. :)

Time to print another copy!!!!

[Pumbaa_]

This is great Patrick! This was my number one reference to DC last year. Thanks for doing it again this year!
Jody

[DumboOrBust]

<font face="comic sans ms"> Barb and Patrick, y'all both did a nice job. :teeth:

Nancy, did you already get an answer to your question or do you want me to ask her when she gets up? :) </font>

[Barb]

Nancy, Wednesday is pretty well booked right now. I don't see how we can fit in the Osborne Lights when we have the Rose and Crown meet at 5:00, then the reception at 7:00. But I do want to do this. And, Ray said he is very flexible on what date we pick. Would it be possible to view the lights before the Illuminations dessert party? Isn't Illuminations usually around 9:00? Any thoughts?

[DaveH]

Guys my $.02. For folks who are at WDW during DISCon dates only, may have to choose between DATW and doing Osbornes and/or Fantasmic. We are there from Dec 1 and leave on Dec 9. So we should be able to do both. It is just a time thing from what I can see.

[ead79]

Thanks for all the hard work, Patrick! I've already saved my copy and started working on my itinerary. Great job!

[CathyCanada]

Another super duper Patinmn job!

I will stick this at the top. Just FYI, only mods of this board or WMs can stick posts for this board.
CC

[Sandra B.]

Thanks Patrick, it looks great!!!:Pinkbounc :bounce: :Pinkbounc
I guess I'll have to start practising a song for karaoke....:teeth:

And Barb, thanks for scheduling all the minimeets!:D

[Fantasia Sam]

WOW - great job Patrick and Barb :teeth:

I am sooooo excited - not long to go now folks ;)

[zurgswife]

:bounce:

[RaySharpton]

Good morning everyone. Thankyou Barb for organizing all the mini-meets, and thank you Patrick for making this great itinerary, and thank you Cathy for keeping this at the top.

And thank you Barb, Nancy, and Dave for your concern about the Osborne Spectacle of Lights mini-meet.

But, I originally chose the time after Dave's 50's Prime Time Cafe mini-meet, because it was a natural in respect to timing and location for the Osborne lights.

And Barb is right. I am very flexable and easy. My main thing is just to be with you, my friends, where ever y'all are going to be...lol.

So don't worry about trying to schedule the Osborne lights.

Well, good night all...lol. Yes, I just got home from work...lol.

Sincerely, Ray :)

[Patinmn]

Recently updated with some new info from CC & Barb.

[DaveH]

Ok I am having senior/WDW dumb questions about DISCon I noticed from the wonderful schedule.

1. Registration desk, where? ie Swan or Dolphin where?

2. Where is the Osprey Ballroom?

3. Where is the Palio?

4. Where is Lake Terrace?

5. Is the Farewell Breakfast only from 8 AM - 9 AM.? The tentative schedule said 7 AM - 9 AM.

Thanks guys.

Pat the itinerary looks great.

[Patinmn]

Registration - Assuming Lobby of Swan
Osprey Ballroom - Swan Hotel
Palio - Swan Hotel
Lake Terrace - not sure, am assuming it is at the swan also

I am sure CC will let me know more later.


The change in breakfast times was listed in a PM to me, I am not sure if it was a mistake or not.

[CrazyBoutDisney]

Thank you soooooooooooo much, Patrick!! Dave & I have had a ball today playing with your itinerary and color-coding it like Zurg does. Don't know how I'm going to manage waiting another 2 months......I'm ready to start packing NOW!!!!!!

:bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

Thank you, too, for clarifying locations--we've never been to either the Swan or the Dolphin, so we didn't recognize any of the names.
Beth

[DaveH]

Thanks Patrick. See you in Dec.:bounce: :bounce:

WOW, Patrick! Excellent!
Corinne

[RaySharpton]

Hi, Patrick. My WebTV can't use the PDF nor the MS file. It just says "unable to use information".

The web page planning grid shows up, but it is all squeeshed-up on the left side of the page in about a 1/2 inch size and is not readable.

I see the Web page itinerary, but it doesn't have the dole whip nor the ToT/RnR information, nor the EPCOT, MGM, MK, AK days listed. Last year I could print the web page itinerary, but this year it won't let me print the web page itinerary.

I can see Zurg's itinerary.

Can you help me out?

Thank you in advance, Ray :)

[Smee]

Patrick,
Just wanted to say "thanks" again!
The new charts are awesome!!!!!
