SOLO travelers ONLY - Are you headed to WDW or a DCL cruise and looking to meet other SOLO DISers? Or do you just want to let other solos know when you will be there? This is the place!

Don't forget to wear your lime green ribbon (or the lime green Mickey paint swatch from Home Depot)!

Thanks for putting up the links. Actually, a big thanks to Kath (Nativetxn) for the suggestions on making the links and "sticking" this thread .

MdmMim · 06-23-2003, 04:21 PM

This is a great alternative to a separate board! (Should have known Katholyn and Karen would come up with this creative idea!)

Thanks for setting this up. I can't wait to see if there is anyone else out there travelling when I am.

taswira, way to go! "They said it couldn't be done..." (insert appropriate music here).

I'll be a solo at WDW the next-to-last week in October. I'm looking forward to meeting anyone and everyone.

Claudia Kellenberger · 06-25-2003, 12:44 PM

I will be at WDW SOLO December 5th - 11th. I will be wearing the Mickey lime green paint swatch WITH my lime green ribbons dangling from it.

This will be my 9th WDW visit, but my 5th SOLO visit.

DisneyCP2002 · 06-30-2003, 03:11 PM

Why lime green? Where can I obtain these swatches and ribbons? Thanks.

Bill,
Lime green ribbons have been used by The DIS people for years to identify each other. Wear one if you want to say Hello to other DIS'ers.

Just a few months ago, someone on The DIS came up with this really neat idea.
Go to your nearest Home Depot store, and go to the area where they sell paint.
There should be a display for Disney paint. All the swatches are in the shape of MICKEY heads. There is a perfect lime green color called "Alien Green". These are perfect to cut out and wear on your shirt.

I'm going to wear the lime green MICKEY heads WITH my lime green ribbon dangling from it.

billybaruch1 · 06-30-2003, 09:18 PM

Okay! Sounds like fun.

jerseydizdreamer · 08-06-2003, 10:19 PM

What a fantastic idea this forum is! Heading to the House of Mouse from November 29-December 6, and I can't wait to see who all will be there! Maybe this time (my second solo trip) I'll have someone to sing silly songs with at Jellyrolls!

I will be taking my first solo trip for my birthday - Nov. 15-20. Can't wait...OKW or WL, still deciding though I have a ressie at WL. I normally stay at the Swan but did not get a great rate for the time of travel...willing to try something new...Lime Green Ribbons?? Is this a way of identifying DisBd Members? I am new to the boards and have been a Disney fan forever...what a wonderful place...Tee

<b>Welcome to the Adult/Solo Board, theresaruth</b>. Check out the threads for each month's solo travelers to see if anyone will be there during your vacation. Many DISers wear Lime Green ribbons to help other DISers identify them. If you see someone wearing one, say hi.
