May 2009 WDW Meet. . .

[MATTERHORN]

It's all good Andrea

Tracy says no to seafood too. I worked her through some of it while I sampled scallops and shrimp on the barbie at Food and Wine, but sushi might put her over the edge...lol

And it's ok, I hear they let drunk Disers into Cali Grill now : ) just kidding

Thanks! I'll just call the drinks that day my appetizers?? Yeah, that's it!

I was at JRs this past Wednesday and been several other times since they banned the smoking, and its still $10 cover.

That's a bummer!!! Thank gosh I'm only there three days, I can't afford anymore than that right now!!

Interesting, cause I read that it was 8 dollars now. . .Oh well, I guess I shouldn't believe everything I read. . .lol.

I love it Amy!

I so want a room near the giant big wheel so I can send everyone out after their time in the POP In Lounge for pics under the wheel

We also offer a walk-thru window. You just stop at the POP store and grab some mixer and we add the "juice" so to speak.

very nice!!! I found last year that they make little 1.5 ouncers of 99 bananas in plastic bottles. So of course I put a few in my little carry-on ziplock baggie. LOL I just ordered an orange juice from the stewardess and discreetly added my own banana flavoring. It was the most relaxing flight ever!

 

[nurse.darcy]

A word to those who pack liquid stuff in checked luggage. . .

Plastic has a tendency to shrink when it gets REALLY COLD in the luggage compartment of the plane. I have only ever had one issue but I was saved cause everything was ziplocked before putting it in my suitcase.

Ziplock your liquids, your clothes will thank you.

Ok, just some thoughts related to Sunday the 17th. If folks were looking at meeting the dozens of others at France at 3pm, I think trying to meet at Innoventions at 3:30pm will be impossible (unless you just plan to wave at the DIS'ers in France as you pass by).

I don't know what anyone was originally thinking for that day. But I saw many references to some kind of slushie tower in France, possibly expanding to drinking around the world, and so I suggested Kim Possible to go along with slushies/DAtW (trademark pending ).

Anyway, I don't know if if slushies and such were planned for early afternoon, later evening, or all day long. But with folks wanting to be in France at 3, Innoventions at 3:30, and leaving around 5 in time for dinner at the CR...

For me, I'm more of a "tag-along" to these things, as I don't drink, and unless health issues improve in the next two months, have limited mobility. So I'm flexible for anything as far as times and locations.

Hi Brad -

From what I have read from people who participated in last years May Meet, there didn't seem to be a lot of formal plans per se. People just said that they would be in one place or another and then other people just showed up. I get the impression that that's the way it will work this year too.

So far, I think you and I are the only ones who have said they were going to the May Mammoth Meet in France. I had not planned to stay at the MMM for very long so I thought 3:30p would work as a start time for KPWSA.

That sounds about right, Angela. I know some are wisely planning to do lunch before the drinking starts (or at least eat in between) lol. Last year there was a group pretty much stationed in France all day and others wandered up as the day went on.

Tracy and I are transferring to BCV that day so we will be around the Epcot area after we check in etc... I know I planned on officially starting the Epcot adventure with the KPWSA, though that's not to say that I might not find a comfortable seat near the Grand Marinier slushie machine before that...


I think we unofficially designated dismem98 (Patty) and Darcy to figure out the slushie tower plans, and they contracted the Imagineer tower builder Leo.

Yea, that's kind of why I mentioned it. I think KP missions can start at some places in WS too, so maybe there's a spot closer to France to meet. I'll just say what I was envisioning when I mentioned KP...

Beverages in France seemed to be a big theme, so building off that, folks could say hello to lots of other DIS'ers around 3pm. Since people are in WS anyway, why not try Kim Possible for those interested. Maybe KP leads to other pavilions and thus other drinks and with it some of the shows. Maybe some stick to France for their favorite drinks while others run off to DAtW or have dinner.

For me, if I was still a drinker, I think combining Drinking Around the World and multiple KP missions would be fun. I hear they can take 30-60 minutes each, so trying all of them could take all day. But if folks were headed from one country to another for new drinks anyway, and if the missions turn out to be fun, why not try one along the way?

However, I'm not a drinker anymore, and just want to hang out with some fun people at Disney, instead of being there alone like I usually am (alone can be fun, but can also get boring).

Sometimes drunk people are more fun to observe while you are sober...lol

Brad -

That is basically what I had envisioned us doing. Since some people want to do the DATW (including me), we could combine that with KPSWA.

We can start KPWSA in France instead of Innoventions at 3:30 pm. That way the solo DISers can meet with the MMM DISers before we start the adventure.

 

[nurse.darcy]

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. . .
