April 2010 ABD Backstage Magic : California Here We Come!!!

[WebmasterJohn]

OK - everyone is booked!!!!

It will take me some time to get through updating the reservations in our system but when I do you will get an email from Kevin. As Kevin mentioned this is an automated email - please don't reply to it as he is not able to check his email yet.

If you have a question/concern/comment or want to cancel please email reservations@dreamsunlimitedtravel.com and someone there will either answer your email or forward it to me to answer.

For those of you that asked for air to be added to your reservation.....the air needs to be added through a seperate department. I need to wait for them to call me back with the price on the air. So your initial reservation will not include the air - I will get back to you later with that if you asked for it.

Finally, ABD needs some additional info from us to note in their systems. Please send an email to reservations@dreamsunlimitedtravel.com with the following information:

1. Dates of birth for everyone in your party
2. Full Legal names (including middle initials) for everyone in your party
3. Any nickname you go by; for example William = Bill.....John = Genius
4. Emergency person/contact info (name and phone number of contact not going on trip with you)
5. Bedding preference (one or two beds)
6. Passport number for our Canadian travelers

Again, send that to reservations@dreamsunlimitedtravel.com - it would be a huge help if you could send it from the email address you used to make the booking originally. If not just make sure you include your full name.

Thanks
John

Hi folks,

Just wanted to let you know that I'm feeling better and stronger each day. I've told y'all before....this recovery is wretched....but I'm going to be ok.

I am posting to let you know that John is booking our Adventure as we speak.

This makes it official.!!!!!

You will be getting an email letting you know that you are booked. The email will be coming from me, as I am your ABD agent.

This will be your notifcation that you have 14 days in which to change your mind. After that point, your deposit becomes non-refundable. This means that you have until 5:00pm EST on August 31st to cancel this reservation.

Please keep in mind that even though I am your agent, I will not be monitoring my email account for a while.

If you have questions regarding our Adventure, please write to Reservations@DreamsUnlimitedTravel.com. Someone will be able to help you.

It's on folks.

After all our waiting....we are ready to go!!!!!!

California here we come.....

Think they're ready for us????????

So glad you are on the mend, Kevin!!!

Woohooo!!! California!!!! I feel like Lucy and Ricky and Ethel and Fred on their big cross country adventure to Hollywood!!!!

 

[Dodie]

Thank you so much John and Kevin for the hoops you've jumped through with Disney to make this happen for us.

We love you Kevin and will continue to think good thoughts for you. Can't wait til we get to spend some quality time together as a group on our little ADVENTURE!

HEY EVERYBODY! WE'RE GOING TO HOLLYWOOD AND DISNEYLAND!!!

Oh! And look at the first countdown in my signature of many countdowns! Woo hoo!

 

[Tonya2426]

Woohooo!!!! I got my confirmation email!!!!! Now I can start planning!!!!!

 

[kab407]

WOOOOO HOOOOOO

I just got my confirmation!!!!!!!!!!

John and Kevin - with everything you two have been through the past few days, thank you. I can't wait to see you two in December and spend a week in CA with you all!

Does ABD have any clue as to what they are in for???


California here I came!!!!!!

 

[corky441]

Yay !!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's official - We're going to Disneyland

Couldn't believe my eyes when I checked my e-mail this morning

First & foremost though.... Kevin It was especially wonderful to hear that you are recovering nicely. I was shocked to see that the e-mail came from you personally. Only you would find a way to do for us while you deal with your own personal malady.


John may be the "genius" but you are a "Treasure"

Thanks John and Kevin!

Kevin: We're so glad you're on the mend! We've still got our fingers crossed for the fastest recovery in eyeball history!

John: Way to jump in there and teach the ABD reservation system who is boss! All that in between looking after Kevin. What a great spouse you are!

 

[WebmasterJohn]

Hey Folks

I just want to add that with Kevin unable to do much these days I need you all to be a little patient with the requests for additional days.

I am doing my best to cover his responsibilities but I just don't have enough hours in the day to look into additional pre or post-adventure stays. This will have to wait until Kevin is back and able to work on these.

Thanks
John

Don't worry about us John! There's plenty of time.

You know, someone looking in from the outside might think you're dealing with a bunch of Type-A planning freaks that NEED to have all of their plans nailed down six months to a year in advance, but I'm here to tell you that is simply not true! We're happy to wait, and we're not biting our nails at all!

Don't drive yourself crazy over us. Then who would take care of Kevin??

Thank you John for taking over while Kevin is recovering. I have sent our email with the requested information.

Also, thank you for taking care of our beloved Kevin. We know he is in good hands. We can't wait to meet y'all in April.

We went to Disneyland California for the first time this past March. I was glancing through our trip report and came across two of my favorite photos of the whole trip ...

DD6, DS9 and DS3 (in the stroller)

DS3, DD6 and DS9 in the front of the monorail (on a rare night when it was working).

In case you are curious, check out our Disneyland California Trip Report HERE. We had an amazing time. I can't wait to go back with just Bill!!!!

We always do a Date Night at least once when we head down to WDW (I have TWO booked for our November/December trip!!! ). I am a BIG fan of Kid's Nite Out (in-room babysitting service). Touring the parks without the kids in tow and having a nice quiet childless dinner at WDW is priceless. I can't even imagine being in CA for a whole week without them. This will be our first trip ever without the children. Who knows, after this trip, there may be more in our future.

Jennifer: Those pictures are too cute. I love the one with them going down Main Street. I can't wait until it's us. I mean sometimes I literally CANNOT WAIT! I don't know how I'm going to make it until then. I feel like a Disney commercial!

Hi Susan. It's GREAT to see you back on the boards. We missed you.

Thanks for asking about the pup. She seems to be doing better. At least she's eating now and the worst possible diagnosis was ruled out for now.

To all of my fellow-Adventurers, this is our Greta:

I certainly hope so... I'm getting tired of being let outside to "go."

And THERE is Jason, swooping in unexpectedly with a zinger. We missed you TOO!
