And come someone please make the time pass a little faster. I swear someone stopped all of the clocks in my life.

13 more sleeps as most of you say for us!!!

Teapot you will have already moved over to BLT when we get there but overlap us a few days
Kathymford we will be there a few days together
Corinne you leave the day we get there (we should be at the lodge around noonish)
Maria you get there the day we leave (we should be catching the ME sometimes in the 3ish range, and I would love to show you some Fantasy pics!)

If any of you want to try to meet up somewhere, pm me and we will see what we can arrange! Would love some little mini meets.

Ok....I was a bit behind but caught up now !!!!

Julie...congrats on the new puppy and have a blast in Jamaica (even though it's a working trip).

Joy....how wonderful of you to adopt a kitty in need ! We've done the same thing in the past and now are stopping at 4 kitties !

And lastly, oh Dumbo.....I was just about to buy a pack of 10-12 cup filter packs for our trip. Now what do I do ???!!! We never seem to have enough coffee !

eliza...love coffee and tea ! Have you tried the frozen chai tea over by Yak and Yeti (you can get it warm too) YUM !

twokats :Maria you get there the day we leave (we should be catching the ME sometimes in the 3ish range, and I would love to show you some Fantasy pics!)

Kathy ! We must meet up---even if for a short time. I am on some restrictions as we are vacationing with another couple. They are staying at AL Sports while we are at VWL. But, they are driving to WDW so we're sharing their car. But my hubby, Rob and I, should be checking in to VWL around 10-10:30 am'ish ? Our plane lands at 9:30 am (they are picking us up). But surely we can meet in that 10-3 pm'ish time frame ?!!! If I haven't already PM'd you my cell, I will now. We'll touch base

And Granny.....GOOD ONE !!!!

So excited for all of our Groupies headed to the world soon! I told DDad we'll need to plan a fall trip next year. DDaughter and I had a great time last year for F&W and MNNSHP and can't wait to do it all again.

I hope it works for you to meet. What great fun!

Here's a pic of our new puppy. He's a mini Schnauzer. His name is Brady. Go Pats!



And this is what paradise looks like. We were lucky to score one of the private cabanas on Castaway Cay. This is the view down the private beach for cabana guests only. We were in cabana #1. Heaven!



Have a good day groupies! Magical journeys wished for all those going to the World soon!

Got the PM, will make sure it is in my phone before we leave. Are you going to be on an eastern or a western?

Gotta start somewhere. Our 2009 meet I was the newbie, wasn't I Di, DDad, Joy and Jimmy, plus everyone else that was there!!!

I am hoping that Kati and I will like it enough to do it again, although we know it will not be next year since we have another cruise scheduled for that time.

I can't remember if I have told y'all yet, but Sept 14-28, 2013 we will be on a LA to Galveston Panama Canal Repo Cruise on the Disney Wonder!!! Our plan is to go to CA 3 or 4 days before and hopefully stay at the Grand Californian and do both parks and a possible tour (that would be the 4 day possibility). Since nothing is written in stone except for the cruise I have not had it put on the list. But that is the plan.

We are locals to DL, so maybe we will see you there! It's obviously a bit away, but let me know when your plans are more solid!

It looks like a lot of VWL groupies are heading out on their vacations! I wish I were going with you, but I am locked into work until December, after which time, I'll be shot out like a rubber band for our vacation at VWL.

In other news, I think I need more points. Let me explain. My granddaughter is now 5 and will be 6 in March. How time flies. Anyway, I think that I should upgrade to a 1 bedroom for those times when I was getting a studio. So that means that I'll need to bump up our AKV and GCV points a bit. DW and I will be viewing the Samantha Brown thingy on Sept 15. I'm trying to get her interested in more points, you see. Also, my daughter (the mother of my granddaughter) reacted positively when I told her that they were building a DVC at the Grand Floridian. Hmm, might I add on there? I'll bet that the price for points will be high and it will require a lot of them to stay there. Then I wonder if I should dunk my head in ice cold water, as I am in my early 60's and here I am thinking about adding on. Don't get me wrong, I'm responsible and our debt is relatively low. I have a good job and don't plan on retiring for a while. But am I too dang old to add on?

I'm GREEN!! not Groupie green, JEALOUS GREEN!!

It is my dream to do a Panama Canal cruise, and a DCL one at that! Funny, that is the only ship I see myself going thru the locks on!

The prices are pretty good, did you see the price of the 1 BR suite? Such a deal for DCL! Keep me in the loop on this cruise!

Tea Pot, how is that kitty doing today?

I'm happy to report that she is walking.. well barely.
She drags her hid end like she is cross country skiing
but is getting stronger ever day.
We usually foster these kitties but this little Muppet has
already found her forever home right here.

So glad she has a good home now!!! Good for you for taking her in!

Congrats on your new pup! He is adorable!
