December 2007 Adult & Solo Travelers

[Glendamax]

Hey! Who else is going in December? Anybody bought their Christmas Party tickets yet?

 

[Debi]

Although not solo, I (mid-20's) will be traveling with my mom (mid-50's) from December 26-January 1. Staying at BWV. Can't wait!

Hi Colette

I didn't realize there was another December 2007 thread out there!

 

[Colette]

Rich,
This isn't a daily one like the other one, for our group, anyway. I just noticed that you posted...The other one seems to have gotten all of us who are there at the same time. Colette

 

[Gaiking]

My first solo trip as well! Dec 1-8 at POP.

Another solo going to Mousefest 12/6-12/9. Staying at POP

 

[hddanis]

DH and I will be there Dec 2-6th for our 14th anniversary. He thinks we're staying at Shades of Green again, but I'm going to surprise him with the Poly.

Hey, Everyone!

I'll be there 12/4 - 12/15, and I'm getting small groups of DisBoard folks together for each meal and activity. (A few Disney fans from other websites may also join us for some of these events). Feel free to take a look at my schedule below, and if you haven't talked with me about this already, let me know if you'd like to join me for any of these meals and activities. ADR's have been made, and I mention below how much space is left in each one. The schedule is slightly tentative in that when the MouseFest schedule is released in fall, I may have to adjust the times of some of the meals during 12/6 - 12/10.

I hope to hear from some of you!

Daisy

DH and I are going from December 22-January 1st. This is our first time going during Xmas as well. We are so excited but bummed that we are going to miss the MVMCP by one night :0(. We are going to be staying at the Caribbean Beach Resort (first time there for us) though I told him we are staying at the Pop Century. He is returning from Afghanistan in the middle of June after serving 16 months there so the upgrade is a little surprise (he he).

Only a little over 9 months to go WOO HOO!!!

Missie

Thank you to your husband (and you too!) for serving our country!!!

I hope that you have an awesome trip!

FYI: Open to anyone staying at the All Star Movies Resort free fridge swap. We have December 21-31 and January 1-6 open.

Let me know if you are interested in using the free fridge.

• ~8:45PM Pleasure Island – Meet BetsyAnn’s group

Hey Daisy,

DH & I will be seeing LaNouba & having dinner at Bongo's this evening. Just curious what your plans are with BetsyAnn's group for this night, (ex. Comedy Club, Adventurer's Club, Raglan Road, etc.)? Where will you be meeting?

Also, anyone interested in meeting up at the Adventurer's Club on 12/3. We have a 7:00 ADR at Raglan Road and then heading to AC after that. Anyone else have similar plans?

 

[jimdemaio]

I'll be there from 12/10 to the 14th, staying at Pop.

Hi Tammy,

BetsyAnn's group will be going to the Comedy Club and the Adventurers' Club on 12/5. We will meet outside the Adventurers' Club at 8:45PM.

It is a group of people attending MouseFest, and they are from another Disney fan website. You guys are welcome to hang out with us.

Daisy

 

[MickeysMommy]

I'm bringing my mom down December 5th-12th for our first time during the holidays. We can't wait!

Thanks! DH & I will try to make your 8:45 meet time at the Adventurer's Club. And I will check into MouseFest also.

[Hedy]

Anybody else extra stoked after getting their Disney Destination e-mail today?

 

[dauser]

I will be at the Swan from 12/16-19, 2007. It didn't start as a solo trip, but became one when my partner backed out after consecutive trips to Disney in 2003-2006 (how dare he?!)

I decided to go anyway, and am looking forward to my first Candlelight Processional and Spectacle of Lights.
