I'm in Snow Lake, Manitoba! Great white north. Trip is booked for January and if our winter is ANYTHING like last year, we'll be escaping -45 degrees for 'balmy' 50-70 norms. I'll take it! We'll be the ones with capris and tshirts next to the Floridians in parkas and mitts.
We Canadians totally deserve to have a warm vacation during our cold winters. We get -40 temps in Ottawa, this past winter was horrible.
On our vacation in January 2011 we saw a kid wearing a snowsuit at CM, my kids couldn't believe it! It was a little chilly that day, we had to wear hoodies, but not frigid. My kids still talk about seeing the girl in the snowsuit!
Too funny! I was from Guelph,ON but over the summer we moved to Kelowna, BC. I just couldn't hack another winter like last year
I am from Victoria BC where we are still enjoying an extended summer and we are going to wdw January 30th - February 9th . We are thinking of staying on property for some of the trip and renting a house with friends for six days.I'm I'm Calgary where we are already enjoying winter Looking forward to our upcoming trip January 21-31!
SERIOUSLY GUELPH?!?!? What are the chances of that??? Those are our dates for THIS year! Oct 25 - Nov 8th. Haven't been for 5 years and we can barely contain ourselves!! Currently chatting with daughter who is interested in tagging along
lol just realized there were other Guelphers here!
We are going Sept 10-20 2015! I am so excited!
This is getting down-right creepy!! I suppose we could call ourselves "Gryphons" and get sweatshirts with the super-sweet statue on them!! Hum, i think that would be awesome to wear to "The Dark-Side" when we go check out Harry's new Digs!!
I love that statue! I actually work at the University of Guelph so I send photos to friends trying to convince them I actually work at Hogwarts.
I love the idea of having T-shirts or sweatshirts with photos of each of us with the Gryphon to wear to visit Harry. I am going to suggest that to my family for our trip next fall!
Maybe we should plan a Guelph DIS-er lunch or coffee get-together?

I'm curious if there are any DISers out my way. While I have a couple of friends planning trips to Disney and have asked for my help - I do not know anyone out this way who really loves Disney. Always nice to know you are not alone.
I'm in Bowmanville, Ontario. East of Toronto and Oshawa. Anyone else?
Cue the Twilight Zone music here, my entire family lives in Fergus -- so did we up till 17 years ago! in fact one of my sisters was a CM in EPCOT for a yearlol I love the new statue. I was a Gryphon! Graduated 2007.
I haven't been on here in a few weeks tho, busy moving and hanging out on the Dis Sept 2015 facebook group, so it was a fun surprise to log in today and see some others from Guelph. If I recall correctly, there is someone on here from Fergus as well.
