May 2009 WDW Meet. . .

[black562]

I think starting KP in France is imperative. After lunch on Sunday we are heading over to the slushie stand anyway. Its a good place to begin. . .ROFLMAO. . .

Um, actually, you get a ticket that tells you which country to start in. It could send you to either Mexico, Norway, China, Germany, Japan, France or United Kingdom pavilions.

I think someone better call Disney in advance to make sure they have enough booze on hand for all of you! That is some group you have going!!!

I know what you mean, reading all these posts makes me think I am going to be way in over my head. Or under a table.........

So, on my last trip I was at BCV, and was up in the morning and went out and ran around the lake, and up the canal and over the bridge, and back around the lake. Anyone interested in meeting up for that?

Aha! So even if you got the ticket in France, you might be forced to head off to drink in some other country anyway!!

Okay, just read the description on Allearsnet.com and this is what I found.

1. You "swipe" your ticket or pass at either the innoventions site or the Bridge at world showcase site. You get a return time on your ticket to pick up your Kimmunicator (a cell that feeds you clues) and it tells you which country you are exploring on your adventure. The adventures take about 20 minutes or so to do.

2. It doesn't send you around world showcase, just to one particular country per adventure. A team of 4 should use 2 kimmunicators so everyone doesn not have to look over each other's shoulders.

3. You can go on more than one mission if you want but you have to turn your kimmunicators in at the end of each mission and pick up new ones for the next mission.

Hope this helps with the planning. . .also, the adventures go on until 8:30 p.m., 30 minutes before the start of illuminations.

So instead of meeting at Innoventions we can meet right by France at The KimPossible stand there. Which works out great for the people who want to spend a half hour or whatever at France right before.

 

[black562]

And if you have more than one person in your group, you can each swipe your tickets and get multiple times...for those of you wishing to do one mission after another. I've heard of some folks doing 3 or 4 missions and hear its quite addictive.

I know we'll be doing at least two and maybe more!!!

Yes since France is right at the bridge. . .lol. Works for me. . .lol. If I get through one adventure I will be happy and can say that I did it. my team better be really convincing to get me to go for more than one. . .lol

Joe, I meant to ask you, WHY are you not coming in May. . .lol.

Saving it all for a blowout birthday trip in August, and another probably for the Christmas party (at least its looking that way). In the past few years, I've stuck in the value season to steer clear of the crowds. The last time I was down on my birthday, I sat through a hurricane, so we'll see what happens this time.

 

[sand2270]

so guys...I am thinking I am either going to have to ship a box or do a grocery delivery rather than try and stuff everything into my suitcase. I can't really decide which I want to do. Any thoughts?

(Really...I just don't feel like working and want to think about my trips instead )

Ok, I'm lost then! I thought this whole chat was about alcohol delivery!! You can tell where my mind is!! How long until we leave???

Wait, they'll actually deliver alcohol???

that's fine...we can do that too. We'll talk, I wouldn't mind having a few beers in the room but don't really know how much time/drinking/eating we will be doing in the room.

 

[jadedbeauty14304]

The reason we bring alcohol for the room is because some (most) Disney drinks are really expensive , and I like to travel on a budget. And also some of our best times are during our breaks at the pool in the afternoon when we make a drink and people watch. That is how Speedoman was brought into our life. Thats just why we do it.

 

[Floydian]

I do alcohol delivery. There'd be a fee of course, and I'd have to scan everyone's ID (which may or may not be posted right here on these boards at a later time)...

Edit: Actually, I have no idea where to even go for alcohol.

 

[Anna77]

Count me in for the dinner at Kona. Jadedbeauty14304 I send you a PM about coming. I've been told the Dis group is a loud bunch. I suppose I'll just ask the Hostess where the Dis group is and follow the noise....LOL

[Floydian]

As a guy who spent a lot of the 90's in Country/Western clubs, for some reason, I keep hearing a specific country song in my head every time I think about the "Monorail Crawl".

Ahh...good times...

He said we got a hundred gallons of sweet red wine
Made from the biggest watermelons on the vine
Help yourself to some but obey the law
If you drink don't drive do the Monorail Crawl

Hi Anna! I am so sorry I didn't get back to you. You are on the list!!

We are now up to 17 people for the dinner at Kona.

I don't think you will have any problem finding us. Where did you hear about us being loud? LOL I think it is a nice calm group of dignified individuals
