The year was 1973.


Mike was 16 and I was 18.

Great pics Robin!!! One very sharp looking couple there!!!

Look at all that hair on Mike's head..........

Mike, I likey your tux too!!!

 

[Verandah Man]

The year was 1975 and yes, I was wearing Blue Suede platform shoes. I had the shoes first and matched the tux to the shoes...........

I was 20, Hazel was 21 when we got married.

 

[Verandah Man]

OK, I really need to get going now............

Does anyone know, do the hotels right next to Downtown Disney, I believe they are "Good Neighbor" hotels, get transportation to the parks?

Is it WDW transportation?

Could you pick the bus up from DTD or do you have to show a resort KTTW card?

Yes Jeff, Sean and I did this last July. Free bus service to all the parks and Downtown Disney.
Every place has a designated parking/pickup/drop off area.
Can't remember what or if we even showed any card or id to get on?
Buses usually run something like on the 1/4 or 1/2 hour times.
You just have to remember which bus goes to your hotel, there are a few and
the buses look the same.

But we got a great deal through my travel agent and stayed at some hotel by Downtown Disney, it worked out fine and the hotel was great! Sorry I can't remember which one it was.

Hey blue was in then.

Mike wore a white tux with black pants but the the guys in the wedding party wore blue tuxes.

My health insurance will be paid for the rest of my life by the township, as long as I don't retire before the age of 55. It will also be paid if I should have to go out before the age of 55 on disability since I have my needed years in with the township.

Gotta like that plan Andy.

Sounds like the Fed Gov't. They have benefits into retirement.

I've always said, I will look for a Gov't job when I'm 55, work it until 62 and retire with the benefits (I think Fed Gov't is only 5 years on their plan to get them).

I feel a dis-meet coming on







When do Air tran release more dates? Our flights are out for Oct 09 already



No disney property for us - did it once - Neil wont do it again and we found the rooms at the All stars teeny compared to those on I Drive and LBV



Me?.........keep a suprise

He hadnt even come through the front door when I was screaming "we're going to Disney for christmas" and jumping round the lounge



I got a quote via www.usrentacar.co.uk for $440 for a 4 door for 13 nights



According to this site all three are onsite at the airport



I will pack a christmas tree for the room - it will be a 2 or 3 ft little one and will be thrown away the day we leave



Yes but just think how much fun we can have



I likey discount codes





Your bestest behaviour would still put you on the norty table

Karen I'm so excited for you!
YIPEE!

 

[JLDSMD]

Hey, on our noon news I saw a segment about a playground for "Seniors" in the UK, Karen, do you know anything about that???

I think she really goes to that when she says she's going to the gym.

Becky & Sean...I haven't read back..

I hope Sean's grandmother is doing better.

Here's some dust.

Feel better soon Chucky Baby.

Thanks for the info Rose.

Any chance you'll come down and visit Sean for Xmas and come over to WDW?

A WDW Xmas DIS meet should be a Festive Outing.
