UPDATE:Hey Chicagoland (and Beyond!), Doorway to Dreams...08/16/09?

[tiggerbell]

Keep Gino's in mind for future reference. It isn't that far...just down the road a piece from Woodfield.

I think that's where we went the first time we did this... thank goodness my sister drove, because I was LOST!

And I usually have a great sense of direction but those suburbs in that area really mess with my head!

How could you get lost? I drove around in the dark and 4" of grey road slushie! Finding it in the summertime would be a breeze!

I'm bringing my GPS.

I called Gino's first, but they don't open till 2pm on Sundays.
Uno's was the next on my list, 'cuz it is close.

Have fun! I won't be able to make it this trip (cry, cry, cry...)

How foolish of Gino's to open so late! I recall wanting to have lunch there on a Sunday, but they weren't open yet - so ended up at Joe's Crab Shack!

Instead of saying "Jaime is my home girl", I need something that says, "Jaime is my Squadron Leader".

And it's not the town that's the problem. It's the freaking mall itself. It needs its own zip code. In order for me to find the correct street exit, I have to follow the signage that shows "Golf Road". Once I do that, I'm home free. Gino's is just a straight shot up Golf Road to the right, which is east of the mall.

Uno's is more convenient because it's one of the satellite restaurants on the mall perimeter. If your still in the mall area, you will eventually find it. I like Gino's better, but I still think Uno's is pretty good.

I keep thinking Star Tours each time you say "Squadron Leader".

Hey, I have to get my post count up !!!!



"Stay on Target, Stay on Target" (my favorite Star Wars quote - when Luke is going in to destroy the death star)

Red 5 standing by!

Yes, we did eat at Gino's the first time. The last one was at UNO's which was just as nice.

Todd, sorry you won't be able to make it. Hopefully, we will see you at the next one.

Jaime, our fearless leader do you need help with anything? Just let me know if you do!!!

This is exciting! The last DIS meet at Doorway to Dreams was beyond our expectations, and we enjoyed visiting the Disney Store and eating at UNOs with you afterward.

We still remember the stink of that soap that smells "like Rome burning" every time we ride Spaceship Earth. You guys are so fun.

We need to look at DVC for our wedding. We are doing one of two things: We are either buying DVC in the next few months OR renting points from a member so we have accommodations for ourselves and our parents for our Disney Fairy Tale Wedding. My fiance even has an consultation with Men's Warehouse for a tux rental after UNOs... So, it'll be an important day for us.

See you all there!

Just buy into DVC. After the last DIS meet I finally convinced my DH to buy in. We now own at AKL and are going "home" in 9 days, staying at SSR on developer points.

See you Sunday!!!

Robin it sounds like you have everything under control.

Don't forget to bring your Disney smile!

Can't wait to meet you, see you Sunday. Have a safe flight.

 

[A.Mickey]

Woo hoo! Is it Sunday yet!

 

[jen3003]

24 hours from now everyone we will all be together!!!

Where is the best place to park since the mall won't be open when we get there?

-nat

 

[jen3003]

If I remember correctly I parked between Lord and Taylor and Nordstrom on the upper level.
There is an entrance there ( I think the employees use it but it will be open) and when you walk in the restrooms are on the left, keep walking down the hallway and when you get into the mall D2D is on your left.

Don't worry though I just checked and the mall opens at 7:00 for the mall walkers.

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.

I hope I didn't confuse you too much.

See you tomorrow!
