January 2009. . . Calling all Snowbirds ~ Part V

[Kazooie01]

I'm not sure about the castle. . . It may still be 180 days. Maybe someone else knows?

I think they said (when we checked for our August trip) that they were all 90 days now.

Hello

I tried to read your entire thread, but could only get through page 26. So I skipped to the end to just join in the chatting.

We are Cheryl 43, Eric 44, and Dustin 4. We've been married 7 years. We went to WDW 09/2006, but it was too dang hot....so we swore we'd only come back if it was a winter trip. So we are booked for Jan 2010. Yay. Planning to switch to a package later. We will be at WL for 5 nights.

Our trip report from 2006 is below. Our son was just 18 months old then. There's photos on the first 2 pages.

Cheryl

Welcome Cheryl! We love welcoming new Snowbirds!

Gosh- this feels like old times.

What do you think Snowbirds, time to start a 2010 Snowbird list???

If you want, post your tentative dates/resorts and I'll get a little list going. I'll probably wait another month or so before starting a new thread, it is a little soon!

Start a list! Start a list!

Tentatively, we are January 2nd-8th

Has anyone heard from Carrie? I know they are super busy, but I was just missin' her.

I have also wondered about Carrie. She kind of disappeared once she moved to the states. I hope everything is okay.

BellaSoleil's TR is a lot of fun to read if you haven't gotten over there yet!! She's coming to the end now.

Where is JenJolt?? Hope Prince Phillip is okay!

Thanks for the shout-out, sister!

I called Jen last night to check in, but didn't get her. It's was Church night, though. Phillip is doing great as far as I know.

Well, you are very entertaining and your pictures are awesome. I will be sad to see the end of your TR. But I'll track down any future TR that you do for your next trip with Belle for sure!
Thanks for checking on Jen.

I keep debating about writing a TR, but the longer I wait, the less likely I am to do it. Of course now I'm planning the next trip and I'm on the boards constantly anyway.
To those that do them - do you write them in a word program and copy them to the post or do it all on a post with pictures? I feel so clueless.

 

[BellaSoleil]

Well.... the way I have it scheduled, it will only be about a month that I'm not writing something. I plan on starting a Pre-Trip report around my birthday in July. But that's our little snowbird secret.... the trip isn't 100% yet and I don't want to jinx it.

Shelly, don't spend a lot of time to read my trippie...I just thought if you were interested in seeing who we are, to take a gander at the photos. I need to read some more trip reports and dining reviews to feed my need for Disney. Great job on your trip report. I read it when I was looking for info on any trips taken in January.

January is a long time to wait. We're taking a tiny trip next month. Going over to Dayton OH to the Wright Patterson museum. Then staying over night (loving bidding on Priceline). Then we're going to Kings Island amusement park. That's it. A quick two day trip.

If anybody is interested to know....Wright Patterson is free. It's a wonderful museum. You can get a shuttle ticket to ride over to the base and walk through 4 presidential planes including the first Air Force One. There's also exhibits on Bob Hope, and the Doolittle Raiders.

Have a great Easter weekend. Ours has already begun because my mom can't resist buying candy, peeps and such for our son.

[Hoosier Mom]

Ours is Jan 25-30, 2010

Had toyed with spending the big bucks for the deluxe dining plan so we could do a lot of character meals, but I think we are back to just doing the regular dining plan. Shucks. Maybe if we get a great deal for January, then I can upgrade the meal plan.

The last two January's I've gotten a code for a resort discount. I think they were available to the general public. I sure hope there's some sort of deal for this coming January.

Welcome Cheryl!!! So glad you could join us!

Shelly- In MY mind, we're going back to WDW Jan30-Feb6 OR Jan23-Jan30. The plan in my head includes us staying at the BC.

Those are about the same dates we are looking at too -either Jan 23-31 or Jan 30-Feb 7. If we rent DVC it will definitely be the earlier of the 2 weeks because DVC value season ends on Jan 31. . . So we'll see!

I didn't know that museum was in Dayton. My DH goes out near there for work training often and always says there's nothing to do!

We are probably going to take a mini trip this summer sometime. Not sure where yet. Probably back to Hershey, it's our second favorite place to visit!

 

[trixiequilts]

Wow that list looks really tiny

That's how the Snowbird 2009 list started, too!

 

[Momof2Disneyboys]

That's how the Snowbird 2009 list started, too!

You're right! And look how that turned out!

 

[Dancegrl624]

You Go, Girl!!!!

I'm really hoping that my DH comes around to this idea!

 

[Disney Mommy 3]

If this list is tentative, put us down for Jan 23-31. Do ya'll know if that weekend of the 23 is MLK or is it the 17th?

 

[Disney Mommy 3]

Look!! I added a ticker---just to make me feel better!! At least if we do go back then it'll be wwwwaaaaaaayyyyyy closer to time! Unless of course, we change the dates! but, it is nice to see something on there!!!

The 17th. At least it better be.... I've planned to avoid it!

 

[Disney Mommy 3]
