And thanks for the info about the moderator and posting the roll call. Is that the same for our website not on the Dis?

Would that be the "other forum"?

If so, than, no would be the answer. There is a seperate meet thread there.

What "other Forum" would that be ??? Do I smell Betrayers and Mutineers ???

cause you know that "The deepest circle of hell is reserved for betrayers and mutineers"

howdy everyone,

just got back from a great weeks vacation up in the mountains here in Oregon. We rode our quads there with a few friends and relatives. Only 3 crashes which was pretty good average for that many people

No I didnt crash but DH did. He hit a hidden stump, lots of bruises and bloody nose, 3 loose teeth but ok other than being sore.

Weather was just so-so but not too cold or too hot with a few sprinkles.
Lots of chipmunks and lots of deer running around including coming into camp until my dog Minnie chased them away.

Now to clean everything and get back to normal.
Next weekend we are headed to the coast for my birthday, so i hope the weather is a bit better then.
Rainy today around here.

Kathy

We are going to the Oregon Coast July 2-8. Hope the weather is nice....but we do know it IS Oregon! Hope Greg is lots better by now!

He was moving like a 90 year old man this morning but says he would do it again because he had so much fun.

We are planning our first trip to Disneyland for the end of September or around there. We have always been at WDW in Florida.
If Greg likes it enough maybe I can get him to do the March meet


For those who have been before. Of the 3 Disney hotels which do you recommend? I know 2 are walking distance and one is on property and the monorail goes to it.

Any tips about the park itself? How long would you allow to see DL and California Adventure?

What is a must see and what do you think is a waist of time?

Is it along ride from the LA airport? Just tryin to figure out the timing aspect of when we want to arrive.

Thanks for the tips,

Kathy

;
I would say at least 3 days. 4 would be better. We just got back and spent 2 days there, not nearly enough time. BUT, we do get to go back for 4 more days in October!

Be sure to see the Aladdin show at the Hyperion Theater in CA. It is amazing! Ride everything! DLH is our favorite of the three, but we usually stay off site. We did Priceline for our trip last week and stayed at the Crowne Plaza just down Harbor Blvd. It was very nice and they provide their own shuttle. Nice!

We have flown from PDX to LAX many times. Super Shuttle usually gets us to DL in about a half hour from the time we actually leave the airport. I think Jet Blue may fly out of PDX to Long Beach now. That would be closer.

Good morning everyone,


We finally have a nice sunny day today. Headed for 80

Its about time we got some nice summer weather.

Hope everyone is having a nice day today.

Thanks for all the help with my questions about DL. I have one more question.

I want to do the Inidana Jones ride. But the video of it looks really rough. I know the vehicles and track are the same as the ones at WDW for the Dino ride at AK.
For those who have done both rides, is the bouncyness about the same or is one rougher than the other?

For anyone who has only done the Indiana Jones ride, how do you gauge the roughness. I dont have a bad back or anything, I just dont like a real rough ride.

Thanks,
Kathy

I think they are very similar as far as the roughness. Not my favorite because of that. Just MHO. Be sure to check out Small World. The outside is beautiful compared to FL and they have recently updated it nicely inside.

Our wedding plans are in high-ish gear too. I am currently folding hundreds of silver origami cranes for decorations in lieu of flowers at each table. We're trying to be both budget- and eco-conscious. We are meeting with a florist on Saturday, and with a caterer on Tuesday. We have most of the planning complete, and we hired a wedding planner.

Good luck to us both!

Oh Origami Cranes? How fun. I bet you're bored! Good luck with all the planning.

Is anyone else finding time's dragging again? It was going quite quickly the last few months and now I'm getting to the point I'm going to kill anyone who mentions a holiday as mine's so far away! I feel like I've planned almost everything now and I'm just desperate to start booking things but know I can't. Anyone any tips on what to do to waste/speed up time?

We're killing time by:
1.going to DL for a few day!
Cant wait... havent been in 2 years
2. Working on a few more "old" scrapbooks and working on the one for DL and the TA at the same time.

Hope everyone is having a good week...

See this is where us Brits miss out. Can't afford to do Disney this year if we want to do everything we want to do on the cruise next year. Even EuroDisney/DLP is so so expensive that it's not worth it (for 4 days there we could probably do a week in DW).

As for Scrapbooking I think I've done all mine now but might take a look on the weekend see if there is anything I can do.

Hi everyone

I haven't posted here in a long time (life's been quite busy!) and I'm not sure that anyone really cares one way or the other but I think we won't be going on this cruise afterall. DH and I have talked, and we're considering other vacations and trips, in place of this cruise. We haven't cancelled yet, but probably will by the end of the year unless we change our minds.

Anyway, I know this will be an excellent cruise and I know you'll all have fun! Have an awesome time!

Sorry you won't be able to join us. For me, this is the ultimate vacation, I get to see a little of Europe and I get to spend 14 days on the Magic!!!

No, no, no, silly. I meant the one that is our webpage on the net. The one that has the googlemaps thing, and the lanyard sign-up, and the rollcall, etc.

I'm sorry to hear you are thinking of cancelling. I'm sure what ever you decide it will be the best thing for you both but I'm sure you would enjoy the cruise if you decide to go on it. Let us know what you decide and if you want any info about the last TA's so you can have more information to decide on give us a shout.
