[katypop]

Any fellow Canadians going to the world in October :cool1:
This will be my 1st trip at this time of year...I can hardly wait! Got my tickets to MNSSHP and some ressies to some Food&Wine events :goodvibes
This was supposed to be a trip with my DD but she can't make it afterall :sad2: So this will be another solo trip for me. I've already spent her airfare on special events :teeth:
Mary-Liz, are you still going?

[digskat]

We will be there Oct 14-23 and I can't wait. We are doing MNSSHP Oct 20th. I have not made ressie's for LTT 'cause I think I may do Donald's breakfast instead.

[hockey mom]

You guys are going to love October. We went the last 2 and are doing December this year. MNSSHP and food and wine festival are excellent. The weather was still very warm which surprised me for some reason.

[MichelleTO]

We will be at the Poly Oct 6 - 16th along with a group of friends totally 17! :flower:

[tigger2on]

Stayiing in a 2 bedroom @ OKW and doing MNSSHP on Oct.6th!
baby's first trip and also DH's 15 yr old goddaughter's as well.

[cdnmickeylover]

We are going Oct 1st-10th. Would have been cheaper airfare to go in September but this way we get MNSSHP and the Food and Wine Festival -- but we are not doing any events. We are doing the free dining though. Can't wait.

[SnowWhite]

We are arriving on October 28th and staying at POP for two nights and then moving to OKW for 5 nights and doing MNSSHP on the 30th! We are stopping in St Georges Island (on the panhandle) on our way home for two nights to stay with my Sister and BIL at their condo on the beach! Can't wait! :Pinkbounc
We are driving down with our DD8 and DS2....should prove interesting!!! :bitelip:

[maryliz]

:Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc

Yep, we're still going !!! We are at OKW from Oct 16th to Oct 24th, and then at SSR until Oct 28th. We're doing MNSSHP on Oct 20th as well. Will be me, DH, DD8, DS5, Susan-Ontario, her DH, her DS10 and DD4.

Kathe ... sorry that your DD can't come now. Weren't we going to send her off with my DH while we had a Dole Whip and visited for a bit ? :teeth: What dates are you going, and what date for MNSSHP ?

Just found out that my best friend from high school and her family are going to be at the Swan from the 25th to the 31st.

I'll definitely have some limegreen on the fannypack or backpack ! And this time, whenever I see some limegreen, I will definitely walk up to strangers and say "Hi ... do you DIS" ???

[surfer_ed]

We might drive down from TO for the thanksgiving week, DD first trip (1 year). We want to do something before DW goes back to work from Mat leave. Looks like it will be a last minute thing on skyauction or something so not sure yet where we are staying but I was thinking of MNSSHP on October 11th.

[katypop]

Yippee for all of us :bounce:
MichelleTO- I'm arriving the day you're leaving. I have a signature dinner that day booked at Citrocos, so they better not mess up at the airport and delay my flight!!

Mary-Liz and digscat-Maybe I'll see you at MNSSHP on the 20th :maleficen
I'm having dinner 1st at LTT with another disser, Taswira :) I am also doing the party on the 25th as well :maleficen (sorry, I just had to use the new bouncie again :rolleyes: )I will put a lime green ribbon on my backpack, but please stop me and ask...cause I won't stop you LOL. I finally got brave enough to ask someone in May if they were a disser, they had a huge lime green ribbon in their daughter's hair, and since it didn't match anything the little girl was wearing I figured it had to be a sign :blush: :sad2: I won't be brave enough to ask again for a while LOL.

I'm staying at CSR, my fave moderate, from 10/16-10-27.

hockey mom- you will love December too! I went last Dec solo and the year before that with DD. Although the weather wasn't bad I am hoping it is a little warmer this Oct. I loved the decorations and MVMCP and the lights at MGM though.

[Palendat]

:cool1: Our family will be there Sept 30-Oct 10. We are REALLY looking forward to eating at all the places we never would never have tried, simply because we aren't used to spending so much on food. The free food really the reason we bumped our trip up two years (I'm sure some other reason would have come up.).

[princess pooh]

I really wish we were going this October but we were worried money might be tight after the wedding. I had so much fun last October with the beautiful weather and F&W fest. It's actually an amazing time of the year to go :)

[MaMudduck]

Yes going for 17 days this time!!!!! :cool1:

Oct 6-Oct 23, this will be my longest trip yet :teeth:

[dsneygirl]

Oct 15-21. 2 nights at FW and then first trip home as DVC at SSR! MNSSHP on 10/20 and Party of the Senses at F&W 10/15.

[Saskamouse]

We will be there from Sept. 30 till Oct 10th, can't wait, we have been before and the weather has always been pretty nice, last time we went in mid November and it was nice but just a little chilly for swimming, we did however manage to get to Typhoon Lagoon one day.

SnowWhite:
I am so jealous, you are going to St George Island, that is one of my most favorite beach places in the world, and I have been to lots of beaches, I am from North Carolina but now in Saskatoon for 6 years and really miss the ocean. My daddy was in the Navy and we lived at the beach most of my life!


Have fun!

From North Carolina to Saskatoon? That isn't torture that is just plain cruelty! I guess the good news is that you can see for miles and you get to brag about all the tourist destinations in Saskatchewan like........and like.......and then..........are there any tourist hot spots there? :rotfl: I like your signature stating only temporary status!! This will be our first trip to St. George's Island but we hear it is beautiful. We are hoping that it is relaxing after a week at disney and the jacuzzi will get alot of use over the two days. Take care,

Rob (Snowwhite's DH)

I have gone for 14 days a couple of times. My friends ask if I get bored :rolleyes: They obviously aren't disser friends ;)

Looks like there'll be a few of us on 10/20 at MNSSHP :maleficen

Kathe

[calgarygary]

Will be at CSR from Oct. 2 - 9th. First time that we have gone for just a week. Hopefully the hectic pace will work off the lbs. from free dining.

[maryliz]

We're also doing LTT before MNSSHP ! There will be 8 of us, and the kids are 4,5,8 and 10 so it's not like we won't be "noticable" ! :rotfl: Kathe ... that was too funny about the limegreen ribbon in the girl's hair !

Mary-Liz

[katypop]

Mary-Liz-We'll keep an eye out for you at LTT. What time are you dining? We have a 5:05 seating. If you look at one of Taswira's posts(Shari) she has her picture in her signature. And you and Susan were both at the London meet a couple of years ago at Tiger Jack's, right? So glad to read that Susan is able to do this trip :goodvibes Bet she can hardly wait too.

:sad: Waaaaaaaaaaaaaah! I wanna come TOO! :sad:

[princess aurora]

We'll be there Oct 3 - Oct 11 and our 1st ever MNSSHP (can't wait) plus the Food & Wine Festival looks interesting too.
We're stayinng in PORS. I requested one of the mansions, which looks absolutely beautiful. We stayed at POFQ in April so looking forward to staying at the "other half" of this resort in Oct. :maleficen

[princess aurora]

We are going Oct 1st-10th. Would have been cheaper airfare to go in September but this way we get MNSSHP and the Food and Wine Festival -- but we are not doing any events. We are doing the free dining though. Can't wait.

We're still hoping for cheaper flights (haven't booked yet) :worried: :scared1: BUT we did get FREE Dining. I'm just hoping we don't have to pay the money we saved on dining for flights :sad2:

[katypop]

:sad: Waaaaaaaaaaaaaah! I wanna come TOO! :sad:

LOL I feel your pain :hug:
This will be me in the spring. I've gone the last three springs and sadly, won't be able to next year.
Kathe

[katypop]

Princess Aurora- You will love POR :) I have stayed at both POFQ and POR and they are both nice resorts. I did not stay in the Mansions, but it is a really nice resort to stroll around in. If you get a chance to see Bob Jackson in the lounge, do so, he is great! Boatwrights surprised me too, I had a very good breakfast and dinner there. I had heard a lot of complaints about busses since they go to POFQ first but I found the service to be very good.

Of course, my personal fave will always be CSR :love:
Hope you find some good airfare rates.
Kathe

[princess aurora]

Thanks Kathe for the reply. I hope to have flights soon :bitelip: AND at a good rate.

I'm sure we will LOVE PORS...can't wait!

[Chickkypoo]

We're going down from Sept 28th until October 5th. We're hoping to go to MNSSHP on Sept 30th. We've never been down there for the Halloween party before, but it sounds like fun!

[DisFan2]

We'll be back for our first visit in 5 lonnnnggggg years! October 27-November 5 at Pop Century. MNSSHP on October 31 with our good friends and their three kids to complement our two. My daughter, at 2 1/2 years old, is an absolute princess fanatic - CRT on November 2 should be wild!

[katypop]

Wow, sounds like there are quite a few of us "in the world" in Oct :goodvibes
And a few "hopefuls" and "wannabees" ;)

Kathe

[pjpoohbear]

OKW solo October 16th- 21st, a short trip to finish off my very 1st AP. Will be hitting MNSSHP on the 20th with my AP discount and thinking about mickey's milestones tour as well. Flying out of BUF on Jet Blue.

PEnny

[MaMudduck]

We will be at the Poly Oct 6 - 16th along with a group of friends totally 17! :flower:

hey me too!- My Friend is staying there and I'm crash in on her Oct 10-15, actually I'm being her tour guide.

[katypop]

pjpoohbear-Maybe we'll see you at the MNSSHP on the 20th :maleficen
Since you're travelling solo too, maybe you'd like to meet up for a while. Let me know if you're interested :)
Kathe

[pjpoohbear]

Katypop

Is there a meet yet for the 20th MNSSHP? I went last year on the 31st, and really didn't get to do too much outside of the parade, etc. So just grabbing a snack for dinner, and then doing as much as I can.

I will be having lunch at Trail's End, so that will be my bigger meal for the day.

This is a very packed trip for me, looks like you will get to stay for a wonderfully long stay! I am a big fan of the AC and CC at PI, up for a girl's night out?

Penny

[Hockeychic]

I am coming also. Just got my flights SW $49 each way...yippeeee :banana:

Oct 26 - 29th All Star Movies, MNSSHP on the 27th and F&W on the 28th.
Then Nov 29 - Nov Cruisin on Magic...our first ever cruise.. :earseek:

Have a great time all.

Kim

[katypop]

Hockeychic-sounds like you have a pretty full agenda :Pinkbounc

I'm considering doing a cruise for the first time in 2007. Let us all know how it goes. You must be so excited :goodvibes

Kathe

[roxwithears]

Will be staying at the Poly from Sept 30 - Oct 9th. This is a spur of the moment trip. We just decided 4 days ago so I am frantic trying to get ressies - dinner times are really booked !

[MikeJ]

Both DW and I have conferences in Orlando which start Thanksgiving weekend. So we're going down a few days early and staying at SSR on DVC points, then moving over to the Polynesian for four nights. DW's conference is at the Contemporary while mine is at the Gaylord Palms. This will also be our first trip to MCO without the kids. With accomodation and airfare paid for, this could be our least expensive trip yet! :)

- Mike

[DisFan2]

Since we're going with friends who've never been, I feel a lot of pressure to make sure everyone has a good time. I've bowed to the pressure and signed up with TourGuideMike - man, talk about being overwhelmed. I was going to refer our friends there to see for themselves, but I decided not to; I don't want to send them into a complete panic. To think I thought I knew a lot about WDW!

[Hardchargers]

What the heck is "MNSSHP" eveyone is talking about??

[DisFan2]

MNSSHP = Mickey's Not So Scary Hallowe'en Party.

[katypop]

What the heck is "MNSSHP" eveyone is talking about??

Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party :maleficen

It is on certain nights in October at the MK. They close the park earlier than normal and you need to purchase a special ticket to attend :)
Kathe

[Baboo]

Thanks to Mamudduck we're going to be down there from October 16-22 using her ressies for Vistana resorts. We're hoping to do MNSSHP on the 20th too. The only other day we'll be at Disney is probably the Tuesday at Epcot.

We're also planning on a day each at Universal, IOA, Seaworld and Busch Gardens. I know, very busy, but our kids are 14 and 17 and can go forever.

[hockey mom]

Baboo- your going- that is excellent :cool1: :cool1: :cool1:

Your kids will love Universal.

Take lots of pictures.

[Baboo]

We did Universal that last time we were down (2000) and we really enjoyed it. My DS is a real thrill ride nut, so IOA is his idea of heaven! He's really looking forward to trying all of the coasters at BG!

[hockey mom]

Be prepared to do Spider man a few times- It is the best.

[Sandy22]

I just booked a spur of the moment trip! Just made it in time for the free dining. I'll be there in early October. :cheer2: :cheer2: :cheer2:

[Hodder]

We are there Oct 2-13 with MNSSHP on the 11th. This is our first family trip and I don't know who is more excited...me or the kids. :goodvibes
