Good Morning!

I just voted for Chip and Dales for breakfast. Wish I could eat there right now!!! I'm hungry..........

So Beth....you are leaving tomorrow. Yay! Have a great time. I will be leaving for your hometown on Tuesday.

We are staying at the Venetian. Woo hoo! For free!!! Gotta love it! Seeing Bette Middler? What do you think?

My all time favorite thing at Vegas is watching the Bellagio Fountains. I could sit there all day. I'm also starting my Christmas shopping while there. Hey........should I bring my suit? I also love to sit by the pool and have a drink with an umbrella in it!! Oh, and with a book in hand too.

Then Friday..........hit the road to DL!!

I can't wait for this week to come!!

PS- I'm kind of thinking of buying Ridemax for this trip. It sounds like Saturday is going to be a zoo. I know pretty much of what should be first..............but with the HM overlay, that might mess things up a bit.

What say you guys?

Hi Melody! I was printing some things out and saw your post. How funny you are coming here and I'm going to CA.
I hope you have fun! The Venetian is nice. We've stayed there a few times. I'd bring a suit for the hot tub maybe, but it's cooled down a lot during the day. Might be too chilly for swimming.

I've heard great things about Bette Middler's show. Personally I'm not a fan, but if you are, then go for it! Have fun!! Oh, and I love the Bellagio fountains too. They are my favorite thing to do on the Strip.

As for RideMax, I bought it and I'm not going to use it. I had fun playing around with it, but with my group, I just don't see us sticking to that strict of a schedule.

In March for the next trip there are no black out days for those with the Deluxe pass. So no one who has that pass has to worry about having to buy the one day pass if they don't want to.

That's great! Whoo hoo! That means any black outs impact less people, both for breakfast and for the parks generally. I do know for any of the Southern CA passes it will still be blacked out, though. Not sure how many that will affect, and if there's anyone who will have that pass who doesn't already plan to upgrade for that day.

I can't for the life of me remember, but wasn't there a group of ladies who did Minnie's on the last trip?

I don't remember that . . . . there was a group that did Carnation Cafe?

Cristabel, it appears that Chip and Dale's is still winning but not by much. I won't be here tomorrow when the poll closes so if you are around then you can make the announcement when it's officially closed and who won. Thanks!!

Yeah, I think I'll be upgrading to deluxe before the girls trip. Also if I want to upgrade to Premium when I renew my pass in April '09, I don't have to fork over THAT much cash.

Ooooo, I feel special
Ok, you can count on me, Beth!
Have fun at Disneyland & take TONS of pictures!

You know I'm not really a fan of Bette either, but she is also part of the deal. So I guess I go with the flow and don't complain.

So about Ridemax. Your's is one of the reasons why I'm going back and forth on it. Not sure if it will work out for all of us. I need to figure this out real soon, or I'm not going to have time to play with it.

Be safe on your trip, and take goooooooood care of that van!

I actually love Bette Midler. There's only two soundtracks I've ever owned, Grease and Beaches. I loved her music in Beaches and The Rose. She does some weird stuff, too, but overall, I really enjoy her music. Funny that her backup player in her early years was non other than Barry Manilow.
Let us know how the concert was, I'd be thrilled. I haven't been to the Venetian yet, only walked in front of it, but I've heard great things about it.

 

[disney-inspired]

Alright, ladies!
Today is the last day to vote for where we'll be eating breakfast on March 7th!
The poll officially closes at 11:01pm

I told Beth I'd post the results and that I'd get all you SLACKERS who haven't voted yet

We have at least 53 ladies attending next year and we have only 24 votes!

Well you can'at accuse me of being a SLACKER!!

This cracks me up. That word is my oldest son's favorite thing to say. I thought of him the minute I read it.

 

[wendylady36]

I'm not a slacker (well OK, I am), I just don't know who to vote for.

I've never been to any of those character meals, so I'll be happy no matter which one wins!

 

[disney-inspired]

Ok, the poll closed about 2 hours ago.
​

The winner is Chip'n'Dale's Critter Breakfast @ Grand Californian
