January 2009. . . Calling all Snowbirds ~ Part II !!!

[Disney Mommy 3]

That got longish!! Just wanted to add that anyone who is riding the fence on a World Showcase dinner has GOT to go to the Rose & Crown. Oh my word!! I have thought about that food since last January!!! I know that sounds crazy, but it's true!! We had the leek soup and the open faced beef sandwich with cheese on top. YUM YUM!!!

Well, that's my advice for today!! See you snowbirds in the a.m.!!! Good night!!

That got longish!! Just wanted to add that anyone who is riding the fence on a World Showcase dinner has GOT to go to the Rose & Crown. Oh my word!! I have thought about that food since last January!!! I know that sounds crazy, but it's true!! We had the potato leek soup and the open faced beef sandwich with cheese on top. YUM YUM!!!

Well, that's my advice for today!! See you snowbirds in the a.m.!!! Good night!!

Well I will have to look into the Rose and Crown! I'm seriously thinking about adding a TS to my evening in EPCOT. I am going in the morning and eating Lunch at Chefs de France. Picking up some Fast passes and then taking a break and coming back in the evening for IllumiNations and thinking of doing a TS in the evening...hmmmm....I was thinking the Japanese place where they make your food in front of you...but I will have to research this.

Well good night all my lovely snowbirds!! I'm heading back to read this really great solo PTR/TR which has inspired me to maybe start putting my thoughts down YAY!!

Snykymom,

That is awesome! I'm so glad you made the list!

FYI: Though I really wish I was going to be at WDW through May, unfortunately my actual departure day will be 1/27. Makes my heart sad, but it is in fact the truth. Sadness...

All I can say is - after reading all of those pages of posts .... whew!

Great job, Shelly - and how much do you charge for your tour guide Shelly services? If it's anything like your thread-starting services, they should be pretty fabulous.

I found a picture of me at Disneyland when I was 7. And cannot scan it! I think my printer caught something from Bella's printer - bad printers.

About a current picture of me - - I'm not sure the DIS world is ready for it just yet....I'll have to hone up my airbrushing skills before I manage something like that.

 

[crzyred]

Does anyone mind if I join????

I'll be there 7-15. First 2 nights are All Star Music then moving to either OKW or SSR. (just awaiting confirmation that should be coming sometime within the week)

I just tried to read some of thread #1, and my head started spinning, lol! My name is Kelly, and we have a party of 15 going to The Wilderness Lodge from January 17th-January 24th.

We're from NYC and Long Island, and would love to meet up with others and say hi!

I have ADR's and whatnot. Is it too late to join the cool kids?

Oooohhh! We should say hi to each other! Don't worry, I am only a little crazy

 

[jenjolt]

WELCOME to all our new snowbirds!!! Even more reasons to throw a party!! Wow I know I said good night hours ago but now reading this solo PTR has gotten me so excited I'm all hyper and stuff now (Of course drinking a Dr. Pepper at midnight probably did not help things LOL)

 

[MelXThree]

Oooohhh! We should say hi to each other! Don't worry, I am only a little crazy

Crazy?? I think it's me you should be worried about...I am traveling with three kids and my parents

 

[MelXThree]

Kazooie01-

I just noticed that we are eating at Sci-Fi & Chef Mickey's at the same time on the same day. Good job planning your ADR's

 

[peach3es]

GAH! You started the party without me! I panicked when I hit the reply button on the other thread and got the CLOSED message! I'm so glad I found you! For one brief moment, I felt lost!

Now I'm back home, hanging with my peeps!

Oh! Poor peaches Sorry we didn't warn you! Perhaps we should have assigned moving buddies! That would have eliminated all the confusion!

GOOOOOD MMMOORRNING SNOWBIRDS! (said a la Robin Williams!) Gosh some of you were up late last night! JenJolt, were you able to fall asleep after all that Dr Pepper?

AND a Hearty SNOWBIRD WELCOME to the NEW SNOWBIRDS ......... you are now a part of the coolest group on the DIS! Hang on to your hats cause it is a non stop party around here!

My name is Wendy... I wake every morning... rush my son to the bus... grab my coffee and ... my DH has the nerve to suggest I have a problem... We will be traveling to WDW on Jan 25-31 and staying at CBR... this trip is a 16th birthday gift for my DS who will turn 16 while we are there (can you say gift card...)...after all the year 2009 is the year to Celebrate anything at WDW

As if we could ever leave our most wonderful peaches behind!!!! Glad you found the board!!

Good Morning Kim!!! Yes after finally deciding staying up reading on the computer was not going to be helpful I went to bed and thought happy Disney thoughts and finally went to sleep. However, I'm very slow and a bit tired this morning...my poor kids (students) I don't have the guts to admit Disney kept me up LOL They know I'm obsessed but how far is still a guess to a lot of them LOL!!

Wendy...its okay just embrace this problem LOL!! I have it too and besides a lack of sleep I'm handling the side effects very well!! I mean look at all the partying I get to do now

I really do love that dancing banana!!
