Who's going to WDW and Mousefest from Dec 11-15? Possible DISMEET?

[DonnaBoo]

We are flying out of Pearson on the 11th, Air Canada, Non stop.

It was a last minute decision, and I'm not into driving to Buffalo.
Too many weather factors.
As it is we get a room at the airport hotels for the night and shuttle to the airport, and parking is included for the week.
Arrive MCO @ 1pm.

Oh yeah....

We paid a lot more than $109...

We paid a lot more than 109 as well. We leave tomorrow
It was worth every penny.

Well we will see you at the Toy Story Mania Meet.

We are there from Dec 13th - 17th.

Hi Fiona! What a weird coincidence - we're there for the same dates! And we'll be there for the Toy Story Mania thing on Saturday night! I can't wait to get away from everything up here...

WDW will do me good! Where are you staying?

 

[cdnmickeylover]

That's funny.

Hope things are going well for you.

We are staying at All Star Sports - actually couldn't get any rooms anywhere else since we booked so late. Where are you staying?

Hope to see you Saturday night! Since we fly out early Saturday morning I'm really hoping we aren't the ones with the kids having a meltdown! We are taking my niece (8) and two nephews (6 and 4). My Mom is going also so we have 3 kids and 3 adults.

Would love to meet up with some fellow Canadians. We will be in Disney Dec.13th - 20th. Heading to MVMCP on the 16th.

We did not sign up for Mousefest so I think we may be avoiding certain parks/areas on certain days as I know this group is big.

Personal plans right now include Epcot evening of the 13th, Hollywood Studios on the 14th, Epcot probably on the 15th and of course Magic Kingdom on the 16th.

Let me know if we can work something out with anyone???

Forgot to mention we will be staying at the BCV.

Fiona - We'll be staying at CBR (never stayed there before - have you??); but really, it doesn't much matter WHERE you stay, you're hardly ever in your room, right?!

I think it's really great that you're taking down you niece and nephews - they're lucky to have a loving (and might I add brave) aunt, uncle and nana! Maybe we'll catch you at Mousefest! Hopefully we'll actually get to ride Toy Story!!

 

[cdnmickeylover]

Tasha - we've have actually stayed at CBR and really liked it. Actually over the years we've stayed at all of the moderates and all of the values. CBR was actually the first onsite resort that I stayed at so for me it's kinda special. We like staying in Jamaica which is just over the bridge from Port Royale where the food court is.

Really looking forward to this trip even though it's short.

We've never actually taken the kids away so it should be interesting although they are excited. We'll ride Toy Story hopefully as that's what the kids are looking forward to.

I dont think we will have much trouble riding TSM at the meet.
I read on another thread that TSM moves about 120 people every 4.5 mins, so with only 500 people, that means we should get on every 19 mins if everybody is riding and no one shmoozing with the team or eating.

 

[cdnmickeylover]

I'm not really worried about being able to ride TSM - I'm more worried about having tired kids.

We are hoping to get into our room early enough so that we can convince them to have a little nap.

Is it only 500 people that are going to be at this event?! It is going to be weird being in a Disney park with only 500 people!

 

[TashaRVT]

Hi Fiona - it's good to hear that you enjoyed CBR! Last year we went concierge at AKL (we figured it would be a trip of a lifetime, the kids' first time there, my first time back since I was 10 - we planned it since before DD8 was born!), but I fell in love, and badgered DH until he agreed to go back this winter!

It's a whole different feel with kids - you'll love it! I think it makes you want to just sort of let loose and act like you're a kid, too. Sort of like Christmas with kids, it makes you see it through their eyes!

I believe it was the last podcast or the one before that someone said a little more than 500.

This is going to be so great!!

HI All!! I too wil be down from the 13th til the 19th and would love to meet some fellow Canadians. I get in at about 10am on the 13th and was going to head over to MK for some shopping and then Epcot for christmas stuff. So if there ends up being a meet I'd love to join in!!!

We've actually stayed at AKL for one night and would love to go back and stay for longer next time.

I was actually there a lot of times when my DS was little (we went every year from the time he was 2 til he was 14 and then he wouldn't go back again til he was 21 last year!). It's been while since I've gone with little kids so I'm looking forward to that part. Just hoping that they don't get too homesick.

Is it time yet?????

I believe around 5:45.
If you are doing the Candlelight Proccessional I would imagine you will be going to the 6:45 show as the 5pm might be a little tight with your 4:10 Chefs ressie.

It looks like most will be in Epcot on the 14th so that may be a good day for a meet, although I realize not all people on this thread will be able to make it.
The 13th in DHS may be a good one also, or both!

So lets start with the 14th in Epcot.
How does 2 or 3pm sound?
Maybe earlier if BitsnBears wants to walk over after their BC breaky ressie.
If that would be OK, we just need a meeting spot.

Just to check, in Epcot on the 14th will be...

I will add you to the list of "knowns".

 

[cdnmickeylover]

We will be in Epcot that day as we are going to try to make the tree lighting. We have dining reservations at Japan for lunch around 2:15pm for the Candlelight Processional at 5pm. Anytime other than that would be ok for us.
