The all New *OFFICIAL JUNE* 2011 thread! Some like it hot!

[anjalee6]

I think starting a thread for the Photo Safari is a great idea. In addition, I know that as we approach the 250 page limit, I will be starting a part 2 of our thread. I realize that some of us will be going on vacation very soon, but some of us (me ) still have until the end of June before we go on our trip. I want to make sure that we can continue to talk, plan, and share our excitement with each other. As we approach the 250 page limit, I will link our new thread to this one so that we can continue on another thread. I never thought we would get this close to the limit before any of us even left yet!

Thanks for the TP crowd level predictions. My trip is 6/16 to 6/25, I think those numbers look great!

 

[SnowWhite33]

I am in AWE of all you folks who are driving...

When we crunched numbers and looked at gas prices, hotel for a night on the way and food, flying was just a tiny bit more expensive and OH SO MUCH faster!

You guys are DISNEY-MASTERS! I bow to your greatness!!!

DH, DD, me and DD's BF will be flying out of Austin on the 15th of June. We are staying at Coronado Springs....

Where are YOU staying???

We are also staying at Coronado Springs-this will be a new experience for us. We normally stay at the Poly, but had a not so magical time last year and decided it was time for a change.

I'm so excited about getting to stay there

 

[SnowWhite33]

I hope the June numbers hold true, but with the recent extension of hours I'm afraid they will get changed-or worse-be completely wrong.

just subscribed to your new TEAM JUNE PHOTO SAFARI 2011 "SOME LIKE IT HOT" THREAD​

this is the link only cleaned up a bit.
[/size]​

I show you how to do this if you want!

Yes please.

 

[carlnix30]

Yes please.

these steps are easy once you see why they do what they do.

you already know that the [ square brackets are command for the BB code like

carlnix30[/quoute] looks like this [ quote ] carlnix30 [ /quote ] without the space between the square brackets. the forward slash tell the system that the command requested is over.

you change the command line a little.

**** Update ****
Per request, the posting of the photos has been moved to a new thread!

Whoohooo

I realize that some of us will be going on vacation very soon, but some of us (me ) still have until the end of June before we go on our trip.

I never thought we would get this close to the limit before any of us even left yet!

We must have turned out to be a much more fun bunch (and talkative ) hehehehe

 

[toomanycars]

toomanycars, I posted something on the June thread but it may have gotten lost in the mix. would you be willing to give us the link to the photo safari graphic? I would love to put it on the flipside of my TeamJune park bag tag!

[sahm2two]

thanks for posting about how to do a link like that, I had been wondering! I might go try to fix the link in my signature now

 

[turtlebean]

I am IN for the photo safari!!!

Cool idea and I can't wait to see what people choose as their pics!

Question for everyone: how are you getting there? Flying? Driving? Renting a car? Magical express? Yes or no?

Just curious!!

We have a little over an hour drive I hope to the airport from Frederick, MD to DC. We are flying out of Reagan National and neither of us have ever flown out of this airport so we are taking a test run this weekend down there. Then we have a little over 2 hr direct flight to MCO. We'll take ME and use Disney transportation while we are down there. It's getting so close. We had to pick DH up from the airport last week and poor DS(4) asked if we were going on a plane now to Disney. He looked so defeated when I told him no. I told him it will be here sooner than he thinks

Didn't realize you were so close. We live in MoCo. We are driving though. It takes us a little over 14 hours and we drive through at night. I just like to get it done and over with.

Where abouts in MoCo are you? I grew up in Kensington. We thought about driving, but that would mean I would be sitting in the back of DH's Jetta w/the kids since MIL is coming w/us. There is barely enough room for me back there and even short trips are a pain. With gas prices and having to probably rent a hotel halfway down and back, it ends up being the same just about to fly. I don't know if I could stand to be in the car w/DH let alone the kids too for 14 hours. You are one brave soul

 

[archdandy]

I managed to get one for 7:00pm on June 16th. I also need to let the OP know that we cancelled our ADR for Maya Grill for that night and we switched it out with the Cape May ADR!

I'm also really hoping they dont change the best parks to visit on touringplans. I'll have to try and change all my ADR's if it changes, haha.

Don't know about the difference, but I can tell you I tried to change our Cape May Cafe dinner and it there was NO availability for the week for us so it may be very tough.

Good luck!

Here's something to get you in the Disney spirit- last fall America's Funniest Video's Assignment America was Disney Surprises. I submitted a video of our November 2009 surprise. This spring I got a call that they were using it in a special "non-compete" episode (no $10,000 prize awarded).

I got the call back today that the air date is this Sunday, 5/22. Check your local listings! I'm just guessing that since he called it a special non-compete episode that it MIGHT be overall Disney themed. So it might be perfect for those of us gearing up for a trip!

Mine will be the one where two curly haired girls are at a kitchen table solving a code message, then they look at our calendar to see the trip written on our dates, and much screaming and falling on the floor ensues.

NEAT! And congrats for getting on the show, too bad no $$ though! $10,000 could by one heck of a Disney trip!

I will tune in!
