[tinkermell]

For those of you interested in taking the train to DL. I just found out from here on the DIS that the ART now stops at the Amtrak station.
Here is the wesite to look up. www.rideart.org/amtrak.html

I think it sounds pretty good!

Thanks for that info Melody.

YAY!!! I think we all need a break. Last night I was trying to shower and the phone was ringing, the kids all came in at least once to try to ask me a question or complain about something.

I'm yelling at them, "I'm in the shower with shampoo everywhere and I can't here you!! Can't you just wait???"

So if you want to give me your name I can add you to the list.

Okay, this has been updated to show the proposed changes of eating in the parks on Friday instead. And some other ideas were thrown in.

Please share your thoughts, ideas, opinions.....

Official starting day!!

Lunch: Those of us who get in early enough can make plans to meet up for lunch if we want, once we know our arrival times.

Dinner: At DTD, either HOB and/or Jazz Kitchen, followed by drinks at the UVA bar??


Friday, April 25:
Breakfast: At the hotel? Maybe something light at the park?

Lunch: What about an early lunch at Blue Bayou??

Sunday, April 27:
Maybe a tour?? There is the Segway tour at DCA or the Walk in Walt's Footsteps at DL.

Breakfast: Those doing an early tour might want to just grab something quick and easy.

Lunch: (If you doing the Walk in Walt's Footsteps tour, it includes lunch.)

Dinner: Since this is our last night, we should do a fun dinner. Ideas??

Monday, April 28:Going home

Breakfast: Depending on the departure times, maybe those with APs, who have the time, can meet in the park for breakfast??

All of that sounds super!!!

Cool.. How do you get from the OC station to DL? Is it close enough to walk or do you catch a cab or bus?

Thank you...

No problem. When we did it in April we took a cab to the Main Gate Residence Inn, I think it was less than $10 each way.

I am partial to margaritas!

I'm a margarita girl too! Yum!

Hmm okay so we have a lot of margarita lovers on this trip. Maybe our official drink needs to be named after some kind of fun margarita.....

I don't drink, so I can't help with that. LOL But I do like a pretty drink with an umbrella in it. Not to drink, just to look at. Someone else can drink it for me.

 

[Zoemakes5]

I make a pretty mean margarita!!! Both traditonal, cadillac and Foo Foo Strawberry!!!!!!!!!!

I do have to say, I am partial to raspberry margaritas! And, it is CA, so tequilla is abundant........we should be able to find one anywhere. Plus, I can always bring my blender........

 

[Zoemakes5]

I hope things work out for all you in the same area to meet up or travel together. That sounds fun. I hate traveling alone.

You know, Beth, I'm almost thinking that, purely out of the goodness of my heart and for no reason that I'd want spend time in sunny, warm, brightly lit Las Vegas, I should come and pick you up! We could pick up the Palmdale area ladies on the way back, as I do have a mini van, and we could start the party early! (Though, no margaritas yet! That would have to wait until we got there! )

I prefer all but the strawberry on the rocks but I got a great blender for my wedding and I am more then happy to bring it I also make a really good pomegrante one too! Though haven't had a raspberry one before.

I think my roomate better be a entertainer/drinker since I think I might be playing bartender if I don't stop giving out my skills

Worse I also can do balloon animals talk about a party waiting to happen!

I think you should come a day or two early and we can get some of those yard long margaritas, and check out some of the local nightlife....

I found my roommate!!!

You might have to fight for her.

Well, depending on how many margaritas everyone's had, balloon animals might be pretty darn entertaining.

Hi April! I added you to the list. We now have 30 ladies on the list of those going.

BTW, I don't know if you saw this, but I have some info in the first post of the first page that I constantly update as things change or decisions are made, so if you miss some pages on the thread, you can always check there for the latest.
