I am posting this from our room in the Grand Californian, as we pack to return to the real world at the end on our ADB - DIS adventure.

We want to thank everyone involved, starting with John, Kevin, Pete and Walter for putting this truly once in a lifetime adventure in motion and brought it all together.

Thanks to our guides from ABD - Michael, Jaime and Joey who went above and beyond to make our dreams come true.

And to all our new friends, the DIS Adventurers, who we enjoyed every moment with, a terrific group of people with a deep yearning for everything Disney and fun.

This was our first trip to Disneyland and we could not have chosen a better group to share it with.


Thanks again.
Frank and Cathy

I'm so happy for all of you that you had such an amazing trip (not that I doubted it would be anything but amazing)! Can't wait to hear in more details the adventures of your trip.

I know that my trip in August won't be quite the same as yours as you guys did some excellent extras but this just makes me even more excited for my trip.

Thanks,

Mary

Meg, when are you going? I'm going August 5th, and know of a few more DISers who will be there that week.

AAARRGGGHHH!!

Broke the view screen on our camera on the last BTMRR ride last night!
It was in my bag and must have got crushed between something.
Just a black blob and random lines showing.
2 more days of holiday and no camera....

Looks like it's off to Best Buy today at some point.

John, Canon 7D with at 10-20mm lens! You will love it!!


or

a Canon SD1300

Oh, wait! You guys went to Mickey's of Glendale and the Club 33 store.

Get yourself shoebox, some 35mm film and a pin to poke a hole in the shoe box....

and go to FRY's while you are out there and not Best Buy. Fry's is Electronics Mecca. We have 3 huge stores here in Houston.

I agree go to Fry's but buy a Nikon. Sorry to hear about your camera.

Hi Nikki - I'll be doing the ABD Backstage Magic tour that begins August 8th in LA and believe that we'll arrive in DL on August 10th. We'll be in DL from August 10th - 14th (staying one extra night). I cannot wait for this trip but yet I'm having fun having something to look forward to.

How long will you be in DL and where are you staying?

Meg

Kathy is not feeling the love for Canon. Come to the Darkside, Kathy!

Join us! You have no idea about the power of the Darkside! Don, Corey, and myself!

But seriously, John, Nikon or Canon, you can not go wrong. (Don, I do have an older Nikon P&S and it takes great pics for a 5mp camera.)

Then he should be buying an Olympus E3

My film camera was a Canon. I have worked with too many well known Nikon photographers to switch now. I was good friends with the Canon rep also so it's all good.

Kathy, I am still convinced that after the moola that passed through Mickey's of Glendale that John is going to be making a pinhole camera.

 

[safetymom]

I can agree with that!

We are sitting in the lobby waiting for our room at the Villas. The past 6 days have been nothing short of incredible.

The Dreams Unlimited/Podcast crew under-promised and over-delivered. Pete and Walter, thank you so much for making all of this possible. John and Kevin, your behind the scenes work to bring us this Adventure and Club 33 is something we will always remember.

Our guides, Michael, Jamie and Joey were fantastic. Just when you thought the bar could not be raised any higher they pushed it up another notch. They managed to top everything last evening by arranging a private area for us to watch the fireworks.

Finally, to our fellow adventures, thank you so much for making us feel welcome. I can't believe our time together is over. You have enriched our lives on many levels.

The theme until December is, "Until We Meet Again". We hope to see you all soon.

The word for the next 8 months is Friendship. We arrived in Hollywood knowing some, but not all. We depart this Magical Place as friends.

Safe travels and God Bless.

Dave & Sally
