Time goes by....SO SLOWLY (or last call for drinks!)

[timben]

Outside it's dark and freezing (32° Fahrenheit). Wisdom teeth was extracted 2weeks ago and still hurts and work in the office grows more each day

Worst of all a strange pre-vacation depression is going on and departure seems to be as far away as next summer.

And still 9 days left

I really will need a few drinks when finally on vacation

So I just wanted to do a final call and find out who will be at WDW when we are (Dec 8 - 21) and would like to meet or is still willing too (Promise I won't be grumpy like I might sound right now : )

"Freezing" timben

 

[OrlandoMike]

Dont be depressed! Look who's waiting for you!

 

[timben]

thank's for putting the largest smile of the week to my face

 

[ConcKahuna]

Not to mention OrlandoMike, CanadianGuy, and myself will be there!

 

[CanadianGuy]

YAY For DRINKING!

 

[JohnZ46]

My partner and I will be there Dec. 10 - 14.

We'll be the older guys walking around saying "This is like Disneyland but different" every other sentence.

Hey, Where is Storybookland and the Matterhorn?

Hey look, Mr. Lincoln has friends!

Where is New Orleans Square?

Why is the Haunted Mansion here? Where did they put BTMRR?

My God! Cindy has a much better hosue than Sleeping Beauty! It even has a beauty shop in the lobby!

Is the music on Space Mountain broken?

Geesh, no Churro's?

Another 3-D movie?

My feet hurt!

 

[JohnZ46]

There's no churros in Disney World!!!

 

[timben]

or if you come more the other side of the atlantic:

sleeping beauties castle is more pink

has the dragon which lives under the castle run away?

why is phantom manor not in frontierland anymore?

star tours is also no longer there

where do i find the nautilus walk through?

has anybody seen the indiana jones coaster?

can't find my way to adventure isle and the large skull and hooks ship?

I am sure snow white was able to speak french as well

and why is space mountain white and mission 2 is not mentioned anywhere?

and strangest of all people seem to be friendly

Think I'm feeling better today (Still want you to meet for a drink guys)

 

[OrlandoMike]

Turkey Legs dude! Turkey Legs!

 

[JohnZ46]

I dunno... I'm a bear. The turkey leg would make me look like Henry the VIII,


Is there anywhere to get a Monte Cristo* in WDW?


*Turkey, Ham, Swiss sandwich battered & deep-fried. Sprinkled with confectioner's sugar and drizzled with raspberry puree. A NOS specialty.

 

[OrlandoMike]

No NOS, no restaurant in Pirates either, and sorry no Monte Cristo's

If you leave property and go to Bennigan's you can get one.

 

[minicoopercraig]

I'm thinking if you make it to Epcot though, all the other strange food will make up for lack there of. Dunno, just my thoughts, oh wait, no, I said that out loud....

 

[ConcKahuna]

Don't worry, they have Churros at every single Disney park...except maybe the Magic Kingdom. Of course at MK they have pinapple floats, and they are the BEST thing on property!

 

[JohnZ46]

No NOS, no restaurant in Pirates either, and sorry no Monte Cristo's

If you leave property and go to Bennigan's you can get one.

That's OK. I had one when I was at DLR on Wednesday. More than one in a month would probably cause diabetes.

Back to the original topic...

I watched the "Fans Guide to Disney World" on the Travel Channel last night (DVRed from Wed.). I'm so excited to finally make it to WDW I could burst!!!

10 more days...

 

[cybertheo]

I'll be there the 8th to the 13th!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YAY!
YAY!
YAY!

I am so excited - getting through next week will be hard but the wait is part of it. We usually go to DisneyLand every Christmas (but WDW every other time) so this will be my first XMAS time in WDW. I am kinda bummed out about not going to DL, I thought maybe we could do both this December but it was just going to be too much traveling.

So see you there! I'll keep on eye out for a bear that looks like Henry the VIII

Look for me, I'll be the one wearing the Mickey Ears...

 

[timben]

At first I thought it would be nice to meet and have a drink with some of you guys.

But I reading the last posts have I figured there's obviously nore interest in food. That's Ok with us.

 

[OrlandoMike]

Well ya gotta remember, some of us do have to drive home after a meet, so food is always good to help with the drinks!

 

[timben]

three days left and best thing of all could finish work 2 days earlier than expected - means 2 days for doing all the things you need to do before going on vacation without any stress.

I can already feel the tension disappear.

That's all Just wanted to share the good news

 

[JohnZ46]

Not me.

I've got 5 days left and I keep flipping between eager/excited and stressed/rushed.

I need to stop reading certain areas of DIS. I keep seeing posts about how unseasonably crowded it's been and that the MVMCP parties are sold out and so packed that you can't move.

I'm sure that those are exaggerations and, crowded or not, I'll have fun.

At the very worst I'll have a great excuse to ignore my doctor and eat any greasy, sugary thing I want for five days!
