Hey everyone! My name is Bekki and I'm new too :)
I'm excited to get to know some fellow Disney lovers!

I hope everyone is having a good weekend!
 
In even better news, I learned this week that I will be the proud owner of a slice of DVC heaven at the Villas Wilderness Lodge! That should up my Disney singles "stock" ever so slightly ;)

So it's definitely been a good week with reason to celebrate. Hope everyone is having an enjoyable weekend!

Congrats on the DVC Andrew! Did you hear about the new DVC they're going to be adding at the Grand Floridian? I know there were some rumblings but we got the DVC members email confirming it. :thumbsup2

Back from a long day at MK. Among other things, we managed to do the following rides between 8am-10am...in order...

Space Mountain, Buzz Lightyear, Winnie the Pooh, Peter Pan, Dumbo, Carrousel, Haunted Mansion, Jungle Cruise, Pirates of the Caribbean, and Big Thunder Mountain.

The longest wait was 6 minutes for Dumbo. The rest were all walk-on. Rope drop for a rare 8am opening is awesome!

Oh, and I think we got 224 people on Carousel of Progress. :thumbsup2

Early opening is awesome, isn't it? We always do rope drop or EMH and it's always worked out well for us. A couple years ago when Dad and I were there the MK actually opened at 7 am. :scared1: It was still dark when we got up to head to the park but it was great-there was hardly anybody there! I'm actually hoping there will be one day like that when we go again next April. :rolleyes1


As for my weekend, it's been OK. Went to the mall for a little bit with my mom and sister (it was insanely busy, not surprisingly) and just got back from a basketball game. I'm counting down the days until winter break now. But I am looking forward to the holiday concerts this week at school!
 
Did I really just hear the pirate: offer to share rum :scared1: You must be some kind of Prince, there, DC.


he is more than just a Prince, he's a member of my crew, I do share my Rum with my crew members..I don't want to risk a mutiny.. :cool1:pirate:

That's a hell of a feat to accomplish that many rides in 2 hours!

224 people on CoP is impressive!

Welcome! Feel free to pour yourself a drink and join in!

My weekend is going good so far. Got the exhaust welded back on my car. Gonna help some friends out tomorrow. I am coming down with a cold/sinus infection so it's kinda kicking my behind.

So am I part of this crew then? hahaha

Hey stranger :)

I did hear about the DVC Grand Floridian rumors some time ago, and am glad to see it's finally out in the open. I caught a thread about it on the DVC boards earlier this week. I'm definitely looking forward to checking it out, provided that the point requirements aren't through the roof. How have you been, and what's new for you?
 
Good morning! Been catching up on the thread. Congratulations Andrew on joining DVC! I've never stayed at wilderness lodge, but it's on my Disney bucket list. :thumbsup2

So have we settled on October for our meet? I know we were talking about it, but the subject sort of died off...

How are everybody's holidays going? I have one more week of school. Shouldn't be too bad, mostly crowd control. We finished all the hard stuff last week. I took DS2 to see Santa yesterday and the whole way there he was all Santa, Santa, Santa. So I sit him down on santa's lap and what do I get? The huge sad face! You know, the one where the corners of his mouth go way down. Honestly, it was pretty funny. Oh well, maybe next year...:laughing:
 
Hey y'all, I'm Ruthie. I'm hoping it's okay if I join this single social club thingy? :) I hope everyone has been having an awesome weekend!
 
I just discovered this thread--yes. I have the terrible problem of being the only one of my friends who enjoys Disney and I can never get anyone to go with me. I am joining.:cool2:
 
Another busy day (that's 4 in a row, which is three more than I usually have in a whole month)! :)

Started with a live show of the DISUnplugged Podcast, where I was able to finally meet Pete in person and once I introduced myself, he restrained himself from smacking me in the head. :lmao: I also saw MaryJo there, whom I first met in person many years ago at a Disneyland meet (way back when I was happily married). P.S. She gives gooood hugs. :hug: Then I won the shoes of podcast member Julie Martin! :banana: Ok, not her actual shoes, but a gift card for some of my own. Never heard of Sanuk before, but she swears they're comfy. Too bad I don't know anyone who likes shoes...

Then off to Epcot where I ran into Dan Murphy completely out of the blue, spent some time walking and chatting and socializing with more AllEars folks before racing home to beat yet another rain storm.

I'm really hoping I managed to lose more than .3 pounds over these 4 days, since I think I clocked 15-20 miles of walking. :eek:
 
Welcome to the newbies! I've posted on the DIS for a while but am still relatively new on this board. :)

It'll be interesting to see how the GF turns out. Guess that'll be another resort to add to my list (even though it might be a while before I'd be able to stay there-according to the email there are only going to be 147 units). Still hoping they'll just finish off the monorail loop and add DVC at the Polynesian. :laughing:

Not much new here- I've been busy with school and going to basketball games. I am looking forward to winter break and then my sister coming home from the CP!

Brad, Sanuk makes some of the most comfy flip flops. . .lol. Sorry you did mention those that don't like shoes, but ya know. . .lol.

Aha, flip flops. Figures you'd know about them! :laughing:

And according to my scale, in all of those visits, being pretty good about what I ate, and almost doing a marathon worth of walking, this morning my scale reports that....I gained 1.5 lbs. Stupid scale, stupid energy, stupid Judy.

Don't weigh yourself....go with how better you feel or how your clothes fit.


Glad you had a blast this past week. It's been cold and yucky here.....
I need some sun and warm weather!!!!
 
What a sucky weekend!!! :sick:

I ended up getting sick on Thursday night and spent all day Friday on the couch YUCK!!! Luckily it has passed (thinking it was food poisoning) and I am working myself back to normal (if any of my friends can consider me normal...LOL).

Busy week this week for me. Tomorrow I have a Holiday dinner meeting, Wednesday is my birthday dinner with my parents, then two days rest and a full weekend of hockey games to go see...CAN'T WAIT!!!!
 
I'm here at work trying to recover from a busy, busy weekend. Saturday I got to see Neil Patrick Harris narrate the Candlelight Processional and it was awesome! Then last night I was out way too late at a friend's wedding at the Florida Aquarium. I need a vacation from my weekend! Luckily I finished up my Christmas shopping while I was over at WDW on Saturday. Now I just have to wrap everything...
