yeah, I'll be there!

goofyinohio · 02-01-2009, 08:37 AM

If the tax return allows I'll be there. Rooming close to you possibly.

scoolover · 02-01-2009, 08:47 AM

My answer is exactly like Chris. If the tax return allows. I really want that coast to coast medal as I wont be going back to marathon weekend next year.

Lynn G · 02-01-2009, 08:57 AM

Jeff - Scott and I will be there - let us know where and when!!!

MiaBanda · 02-01-2009, 02:17 PM

I'm in! Let me know the details. Jamba Juice seemed to work out last year...but am up for whatever you decide!

mkymsehi · 02-17-2009, 03:38 PM

Does anyone want to have lunch or early dinner on Friday, or a lunch on Saturday?

Possibly at a restarant nearby on Harbor Blvd? Or in Downtown Disney or one of the hotels? Cocktails at the Uva bar? The Lost Bar near the Disneyland Hotel pool?

Somewhere outside the parks, so those not attending the parks that day won't need a park ticket.

ksoehrlein · 02-17-2009, 04:18 PM

I'll be there, but I'm probably coming in late Friday night so I might miss the Friday meet(s). I'm game for a meet, but I might have DD(9) in tow. {Just not if she keeps opting out of doing her school work like she has been lately!} Are kiddos welcome at the meets?

Yes, kids are always welcome to join in.

Lynn G · 02-17-2009, 08:45 PM

Jeff - I think we will be coming in Friday also, but hopefully not late, so Friday evening or Sat afternoon would work for us.

mkymsehi · 02-18-2009, 04:16 PM

Anyone want to meet up at this nearby mall instead of Downtown Disney? Many restaurant choices.

It's about a 10 minute from the crosswalk on Harbor Blvd entering/exiting the Disneyland Esplanade Walkway (i.e. Captain Kids Restaurant next to Park Vue hotel). About 6/10th's of a mile, give or take.

Some have mentioned arriving Friday. Do we want a later time for dinner? 7 or 8 pm?

jeanneg · 03-18-2009, 07:10 PM

We just registered for this event yesterday and would love to attend the WISH meet. We plan to arrive early Friday or perhaps even Thursday night. We have not yet made hotel reservations....where is everyone else staying?

mkymsehi · 03-18-2009, 07:23 PM

This map will help you with locations.

jbucci · 03-18-2009, 07:32 PM

Butch and I will be there are up for a meet-- just let us know where and when. My only preference is to have it be walkable from Disney so we don't need to drive, but otherwise we don't care-- will likely have my parents watch DD during the meet.

We are probably staying at Candy Cane although we haven't booked the room yet.

jeanneg · 03-18-2009, 07:33 PM

I checked out the Desert Inn and it is very nice.....also cheap and close! Now I have to go check out Candy Cane Inn and the Anaheim Plaza....do either of those have rooftop viewing for the fireworks?
I am so excited about doing this!
