July 2011 Check in Thread Post your travel dates and hotel here

[funatdisney]

I'm chomping at the bit. We leave next Friday morning! Staying at the Tropicana from the 8th-14th. Still thinking about visiting Priceline about an extra night somewhere.

Your dates have been added to the first post. I hope you can get a good rate on Priceline. Always a good idea to stay extra night IMHO.

Will be there from July 10 thru July 17 with my daughter and her friend, staying at the Disneyland Hotel. For the last few days of the trip, will also be attending the CTMH Convention that is being held in the DLH.

Your dates are listed in the first post. Have a great time at your convention. Be sure to eat at Goofy's Kitchen, but make sure you make a reservation before you go. The number to call is listed in the first post.

We are only going for one night, July 25th, and staying at the Red Lion. So excited for our first trip to California-----even more excited to ride the original Space Mountain!!!!

I have added your info as well. You will love Space Mountain. Be sure you ride Star Tours 2. I would also recommend getting fastpasses for both rides.

Yeah! I hope you will be able to come back when you can stay longer! Be sure to get a SM FP in the morning, probably after ST if you are riding that. I have heard that SM has been going faster too due to its location near ST. After that, you should go get one for Indy.

We are traveling the old fashion way, by train. Leave here on Friday and gets to Anaheim on Sunday. I just hope not 18 wheelers decide to ram us.
Thundergod, I understand the 20 hour drive. It takes us 5 hours to just get anywhere here.

Gosh I only have a 20 hour drive.

The lengths we will go to for our Disney fix!

 

[disneydreamer74]

That's what we are here for.



We have an 8 hour drive from NorCal. If we leave early in the morning, we can get there around 2pm and go to DLR a little on arrival day. This trip we will head to Mermaid when we arrive since we will have no FPs anyway. Might also be a good day to see the Soundsational parade.

Your plans for the parade sound good. Will you be staying at the CCI again this trip? I have been itching to try it sometime!!
