Thank you Mandy. Hang around and you might pick up a few things
If there is interest I be happy to give some photography lessons in exchange for a drink

Photography is a big passion of mine and I continually strive to improve and learn to make better photos.

I will take you up on that, Eje!!

Will scratch offs be an issue due to the different states?

Yep, I posted a correction on Facebook but forgot to on here, we will play with fake disney dollars which will represent real money.

I did not get it, I am using only my phone so I am not able to check my junk box and won't be at the office for a long time. Would you mind doing a PM for me?

Thanks

Are the scavenger hunts that are being arranged meant for kids? Or more like families/Adults?

Do you need to sign up for them and where will they be starting from?

My intention was for Families. Meeting place is to be determined. I would like to know who will be participating just incase there is a last minute change.

Hi, All!

Just booked the EBTA! Yay! Me, DH, DS (6), DS (5), and DD (3) are not at all prepared. Need to catch up on the DIS posts. We are moving to Switzerland and this is how we are getting there so we are very busy. Looking forward to the FE. I'm not sure what our item will be but the kids love giving and receiving.

Anyone else needing to update for Lanyard Nametag Insert? (You provide your own lanyard)

Hi MandyGirl

I submitted the forms today, just under the wire... I hope.

My DH will bring his Tux, because he has one. (We are members of a Mardi Gras krewe, and there is a formal ball every year.) I am bringing long dresses for formal nights, but they are very lightweight plain dresses, no bling/no ruffles! I have a stapless, knee length dress for semi formal night, simple summer dresses for casual nights.
I noticed people talking about one bag limits. Is that from the airline or DCL?
Thanks to those that replied with links to the weather in Madiera. I will definitely have to rethink packing! Much cooler in those areas than I expected!

Hi, SophiaMax

My DH used to be in Thoth? What krewe are y'all in?

[jclay]

I'll do it!

Thanks, Kirbo!

Now that's a way to relocate!

I was a little disappointed to see that the EBTA is likely to have the Villains Tonight show. Is it only me that doesn't like this show?

Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Disney Villains, but WHY choose some of the Villains they have done for this show? It's like they taken some of Disney's most unpopular films and brought the Villains to the stage. I was on Dream in January with my Parents and Aunt & Uncle. They get the whole Disney thing but they don't really do films. Even I struggled to name some of the Characters - I mean Yzma and Kronk for goodness sake! For me from one of Disney's worst ever films - AND they seem to play such a large part. For me even Hades, Pain, Panic and the Fates are a strange choice.

I'm not even sure I can stomach sitting through this show again having done it 4 times in the last 16 months.

It's a really shame they haven't brought Wishes to the Magic (I guess it could happen but I won't hold my breath) and I would love to see a Cruise Ship rendition of Fantasmic, although I guess the scale of it just would't work and the water/pyrotechnics, but I am sure they could adapt the show portion to something that would work.

Anyway, on the subject of shows, as I have only been on DCL Dream and Fantasy are there are 'must see' Magic shows? What's considered to be Magic's signature show?

Oh and please don't take my opinion as a personal attack on any show you may love, it is, after all, only my opinion
