The Ip-Dip Fry Daddy Dude Fest '08 - PTR by the camping dude

[Montana Disney Fan]

Are you talking to yourself now?

Ooops. Caught again.

 

[Disneyolic]

Smart Alec!

Are you calling my son smart? Thank you!

Welcome. Since you're new here, we'll call you nOOb.

NOOb? Why do you get to decide? I'm thinking something along the lines of Queenie.

Are you talking to yourself now?

He's a lonely guy. That's why he's trying to pick me up and whisk me away to Disney World ...

So, it sounds like Buzz is buying everyone lunch at the Biergarten on the 19th, huh? Sounds like a plan to me. The kids will have fun dancing while the rest of us sit back, drink a few beers and watch them.

Count the four of us in!

I'm here ... you may now all dance.

OK, let me recap from "other TRs"

We are meeting at Biegarten for lunch on Sunday the 19th. Time to be determined by Buzz's ADR.

Will we then head to DTD for par-tay-ing?? Or just wander around Epcot and bloat ourselves further, or split up and re-meet in the late night with those able to ditch kiddos, or just all go our separate ways at that point???

Me = confused.

American Gladiators = gud

Also, by early July or so, I am going to need a count of people going, and Tee-shirt sizes. I think I have found the perfect design for our tee-shirts, but it's going to take a while to order them, get them, and make them all up....I need some decent lead time.

I am thinking black tee-shirts. Sound good??

Also, everyone going must think up a nickname, or you will be ASSIGNED one by ME. Bwahahahahaha!!

OK!! I need to get some sleep! Kids will be up for school in 8 hours!!

Amy, You might be able to meet up with Buzz and/or me separately. I am only in WDW Oct, 17-20 (arriving around noon-ish most likely on Fri), though I would love to meet you. And I think some other people are arriving on the 19th, which is the reaon for the date for the Ip-Dip meet. Sorry.

 

[scottny]

ok I am here. I will have to look into that AAA rate for camping. I would love to go for the weekend and if it isn't too bad (we are going a month before this) I would love to attend. I will let you know by the July deadline u set.

$89! Sweet! I hate Southwest, would have to fly out of Islip (1.25 hr drive each way!!), and nothing looks like less than $99 one way, which is not really less than the $189 round trip I have been seeing for Delta (not even factoring for gas). I haven't booked flights either, as we are still waiting to find out HHBG's vacation/work situation.

Keep working on your DH!! LEAN LADY!

My itinerary looks like this:

Fri: arrive as early as possible, set up camp if site is available. curse. set up camp properly. GO to some park to blow off steam (probably MGM...err...DHS). (If site not available, ditch stuff, head straight to parks, but get back early to set up) Eat somewhere. see fireworks.
Sat: Park hop. Maybe end up in epcot eating my way around the world. Possibly meet up with Ed and Scott for dinner. see different fireworks
Sun: continue park hopping jaunt. DIS meet! continue to DTD to make fool of self on dance floor. PAR-TAY!
Mon: THis is the day that really depends. If I can get away with going home LATE, I will use resort check in, then hit the parks for a last day. If I have to be home to get the kids off of the bus, I will check out and go to the airport.

Hey Ed,

Glad you can join us (maybe)! We're driving down from Indy in October, so we'll probably leave early Saturday morning (since DD will have school on Friday). We'll drive all day and probably stop someplace in southern Georgia for the night. Then, we'll get up early on Sunday and finish the drive. We should arrive in WDW by around noon on Sunday. The only way this may change is if Southwest or AirTran comes out with unbelievable fares to Orlando (like $50 each way or something). It's happened before, but we're not counting on it.

We're staying at OKW in a one-bedroom villa. This will be our first time staying in our home resort. Since we'll have a car, I might try to do some cooking in the villa, instead of eating out every meal. We didn't have a car last year, so we did the dining plan. It worked out well though, since our little one was still 2 years old and ate for free at buffets. We did a few character meals and only paid for two adults and one child. And of course, it's the little one who eats more than the six year old!

Anyway, I have no idea what our plans are for right now. Eric & I have annual passes from our December trip, but we have to buy tickets for the girls. Other than meeting up with you guys on Sunday and doing the Halloween party one night at MK, we don't have any concrete plans. It's too early to be thinking about which park, which day or ADRs. I'm sure we'll have to do a Princess breakfast or lunch and I'm debating doing BBB. If I can get Grandma to pay for it, we'll do it.

I'm glad to see so many people trying to come down for our meet. It should be a lot of fun! Meeting Buzz in December was .... how shall I say it.... interesting. No really, he seemed like a normal guy, not as crazy as he makes himself out to be online.

Just over nine months to go!
