WHY: Always wanted to experience a warm Xmas (fingers firmly
crossed for good weather), and as company Xmas celebrations

to cheer myself up somehow
DOWNSIDE: I have to admit not being too keen on kids ... I'm going
to re-read the notes concerning kids at Disney to get some
survival tips
UPSIDE: It gives me a perfect excuse to visit the parks again
though!
Roll-on the 12th ... I'm dreaming of Xmas dinner, on a `couch-potato'
li-lo, in the pool.

was more construction than rides, or events....
Sarah & Me - Arpil 1990, I won 2 RT tickets to anywhere in
the US, and we went there for a long "girls only" weekend!
People here at work are ALREADY getting sick of hearing me talk about

HOW: US Air from Boston to Orlando

312.27 | I'm in! | WAGON::KRUEGER | | Wed Feb 17 1993 11:43 | 31 |
| When: April 3 through April 9, 1993
Who: Me and Kalin, my 19-year-old daughter
Where: Dixie Landings Resort
How: United Airlines
Why: Why else? We're hooked!
Last trip: 1992, April school vacation. Basically this is my 10th
trip to WDW, and my daughter's 6th (she was a baby the
first two times I went, although I took my son, and twice
I went with friends because my kids had other plans).
This year my two oldest are off on their own, and my youngest (a senior
in high school) can't bear to leave her boyfriend for a week. So it's
just me and Child #3, and we're going to have a ball! Luckily she's
the one who's easiest to travel with; she's not a picky eater like my
youngest, which means when we're in Epcot we plan to have dinner in
Morocco for the FIRST time! We have the easiest rapport and she
doesn't mind leaving her boyfriend for a week. I can't wait! I was
planning to skip WDW this year but got the urge just a couple of weeks
ago (from reading this file!) and within 24 hours Kalin and I decided
to go for it, so I tried to reserve CBR but they were booked for the
entire month of April so Dixie Landings was our second choice. Their
more budget-minded rooms were booked so we got a garden view; that's
fine with me. I'm very excited about this trip; my workload this year
has been out of this world and I DESERVE this break!

| Paula Von Rosendahl and daughter Brienne age 5. Meeting Grandparents
for long weekend.
I ended up getting a companion ticket for Continental and my parents
were in Florida for the month so we agreed to meet in WDW for 2-3 days.
Actually we will be going to Epcot, MGM and then to Universal for 1
day.
Last trip was last May so the only thing new in MGM is the Aladdin
parade. My parents have never seen MGM or Universal and since they
last saw Epcot many new attractions have opened. We all have seen MK
many times so we will skip it for this short visit.
TRIP: 2/24/93-2/28/93

Where: Four nights lake view in PO
How: Amtrak
Previous: February 92(flew: CBR & Poly), April 91(drove: FW tent).
Why: Addicted. Left over entrance media. Can't take reality.
I may even do a trip report this time.
Decided to take the train rather than Drive. I'm hoping it will be easier to
entertain Rowena that was. I'd budgeted $240 for overnight stays and $140 for
gas. The Train is $381 - and would have been cheaper if it was not so full.
We should be a long break in DC on the way down.

Me, Husband John, son, Patrick 4 yrs in July, my brother and
his wife. They will only be staying with us 1 week in the house.
Any opinions are appreciated.

| Nancy - Hi! I know someone who took the train down to Orlando, and
they said that it took 27 hours! I don't know how much it cost, but
they said that next time they would definately fly down. If I remember
correctly, it was about the same price as flying down.
I think you can call 407-WDISNEY and get information about staying
inside the part - that's the number the TV commercials advertise to get
information.
We just went last month and stayed at the Carribean Beach Resort and we
really liked it.
If you have any questions, give me a call at work (225-6322), or send
me a note over the tube.

312.41 | Another one that seems so far away........ | CALDEC::KATIE | | Tue Apr 06 1993 18:26 | 17 |
| When: April 30th - May 11th
Who: Myself, My Husband Marty, and 18 month old Christopher
Where: My Parents home in Kissimmee
How: Air - San Jose to Orlando - (Continental and Safeway have a great
special)
Last trip: First time - August 92 - Too hot, but boy did I get the bug.
Why: Well to visit my parents of course, but really to get when the
weather is still nice and just relax.
I can't wait - Only 24 more days, and I can hardly concentrate on work.

312.42 | Thanksgiving at Disney!!! | SAHQ::BAILEYS | | Tue Apr 13 1993 09:38 | 24 |
| When: November 24th - 28th
Who: Myself (Sasha Bailey), My husband Philip, My son (Brad 4), My
brother (Charles), his wife (Gale), and their son (Skyler 4), My
sisters Ann & Lisa, and Ann's boyfriend (Dave).
Where: CBR - Martinique
How: Driving from Atlanta
Last Visit: December, 1987
I am so excited!!!! This is the first time for my sisters, brother,
son, and nephew. We all wanted to spend Thanksgiving together and what
better place that WDW!!!!

312.43 | | SOLVIT::REDZIN::DCOX | | Wed Apr 14 1993 13:29 | 20 |
| WHEN: June 4-9
WHO: David & Alexis
HOW: US Air
WHERE: Grand Floridian June 4-9, West Coast of Florida June 10-13
WHY: Why not? We have two frequent flyer tickets begging to be used
before June 15 and our 25th anniversary trip to Kawaii was rudely
interrupted by hurricane Iniki. Those seem like good excuses to
splurge.
This will be the 4th trip to WDW (also did 1 to DL); but this will
be the first without the children!!! They are in college and are
NOT happy to be left behind. Oh well.
This will also be the first time not staying in FW.
Probably check out the Disney vacation Club condos as long as we
are there. Might even put on a suite and wander into "Casting".
NEXT: Summer of 1995 when I am through writing college tuition payment
checks. It will be a two_for_the_price_of_one graduation present.

312.44 | Another year, another trip... | CHEFS::GRAYJ | | Sat Apr 17 1993 13:39 | 14 |
|
When: July 16 to Gulf Coast, July 27 to Polynesian for 11 days.
Who: self, wife, two children - 15, 16
How: Virgin from London to Miami. Hopefully safely out of Miami Airport
to Marco Island, then to Orlando.
Previous: 1989,90,91,92....
Why? It's the greatest vacation resort in the world!
John Gray, Reading.
|
312.45 | 115 days and counting! | 12027::HOLMES | | Tue Apr 27 1993 15:15 | 31 |
| when : August 21st - 28th
who : me (Tracy), Norb and Marcie McKenna, their son Patrick
(who will turn 15 while we're there), my cousin Jaime (15)
where : 1 night at Port Orleans, 7 nights at the The Beach Club on a
World Vacation package
how : driving from MA, straight through, both directions
lots of Disney music along the way
why : Our supervisor (Marcie's and mine) wanted to know a few months
back what our vacation plans were for the year, so we decided
to make some!
last trip : For me, Marcie, and Norb, March 1992. We went with two other
people from work on an 8 day, 7 night World Vacation package
and stayed in the Treehouses. We had a blast! It took them
a while to convince me to do the package then, but what a way
to go! (It didn't take any convincing this time.)
Patrick was last there in June of '89 for an extended-family
reunion -- parents, sisters, aunts, uncles, cousins,
grandparents -- 13 of them all together frolicking around
the World with their World Vacation cards.
For Jaime it's been several years too -- probably three or
four -- since she was there with her parents and sister.
She's never seen MGM at all and is very psyched to go.
Only 115 days to go!!!

312.46 | | MSBCS::HURLEY | | Mon May 03 1993 16:50 | 16 |
| when: August 22-26
Who: My wife, my 2 boys Patrick, and Sean 2 and 4 yrs old and
myself.
Where. Disney's contemporary Resort
How?: ? dont know yet. Probably driving.
This will be our first time and am looking forward to it. I liked the
idea of the monorail going thru the Hotel so when the kids get tired
and need there daytime nap it should make things a little less of a
hassle.
|
312.47 | 28 days and counting... | WKEND::MACARTHUR | | Tue May 11 1993 13:26 | 17 |
| Who: me and my mom
When: June 8-11
Where: Quality Inn Plaza, Orlando
Why: Mom has never been to Epcot!!!
How: US Air (got a fabulous deal through Thomas Cook travel - round
trip air fare, 3 nights at the hotel, rental car, hotel tax and $15
gift certificate to Church Street Station = all for only $239 per
person!)
Last Visit: March of 1993 with my husband and son
I'm really looking forward to this trip because I'll really get a
chance to see Epcot better - it's kinda tuff with an almost 4 year old!
|
312.49 | 19 more days :^) :^) | BPT::FINAN | The sky was yellow and the sun was blue | Thu May 27 1993 12:25 | 20 |
| When: June 15 - June 22
Who: Myself and my 6 year old daughter
Where: Dixie Landing (CBR was full)
How: Delta (got a really good rate since there was a
fare war and we are flying down and back on Tuesdays).
Last trips: None. This is our first!!
Why: We've never been and I think Megann is a great age for
it and I got a nice tax refund this year to pay for it
(I've been trying to plan it for 3 years but never had
the money).

312.50 | 9 days to go and a new hotel! | MAGEE::GIBSON | | Mon Jun 07 1993 09:09 | 46 |
| Persistence pays off!
After about 17 calls to the CRO looking for a cancellation, we managed to find
a room at Dixie Landings instead of the Beach Club for our trip. I know, the
amenities aren't as nice, but the nightly savings are substantial!
We now have a room with a king-sized bed in the Alligator Bayou section of
Dixie Landings! We will have stayed at all three of the onsite economy hotels
and will be able to decide which is the best one for us.
Robyn, we will be at DL the same time as you and your daughter, so I will be
on the lookout for you and try to give you a call.

Tampa is a good compromise for arrival/departure and car rental

How: Driving from central Joizy
Last Trips: Started in '78 as our honeymoon, 2 times after that before
kids, and have gone once a year for the last 5 years with
the kids. This will be our 9th time.

PS: We will be spending the week after at my outlaws relaxing by the
pool and doing day trips.

When: 8/12 thru 8/24
Who: My Wife (Rosemarie), Christine (12), Robbie (6) and me (John)
Where: Sheraton Lakeside (not too expensive and fairly close to every-
thing; stayed there the last time anyway and it was okay)
How: Driving from Central Mass
Last Trips: 1973, 1974, 1977 and 1985
Why: Need a vaction
PS: We originally planned to go down in October, but felt guilty taking
the kids out of school. Plus, with only a week down there I thought
we'd be too rushed. After reading this notes file, I figured we'd
buy the annual passports and go down for a longer period. This way
we can take our time and the annual passports seemed to be the best
way to go. It also seems like you get more for your money in the
summer although lines may be longer and it's hotter.

at Ole' Miss on to West Palm for a few days at Lizzy's Mom's condo on
the beach and then to WDW for a few days.
Last Trip: July 1992 with my little brother (19 at the time). We had a
blast doing strictly Disney all week, Typhoon Lagoon and Disney Studios
were the highlights.
Why: Because it'll be the first time I get to see it through the eyes
of a little one (5 yr old) and I think that will make it different
than the last few trips.

WHO: Dave and Pat Jacob and our 8 month old son Corey
WHERE: We have a timeshare condo for 2 weeks just 6 miles from disney
HOW: Flying from Manchester NH to orlando
LAST VISIT: 5 years ago... and no child
QUESTION: I'm not sure if we made a big mistake or not...we could fly
cheaper out of manchester on Continental than from boston
out of US Air. We got 2 rt tickets and the car rental
for $700.00 Has anybody ever left out of Manchester or
for that matter on Continental...It seemed easier because
we are leaving a 6:40 am and with a baby the manchester
airport is all of 5 minutes from our house...I just want
to make sure they safe, good, and accomidating for a baby.

WHEN: Thurs Sep. 9 to Mon. Sep. 13
WHERE: Beach Club (Pool view all sold out, had to take lagoon view)
HOW: AA Freq. Flier Ticket for Diane, $283 round trip for me.
AVIS rental car, $120 for four days (not bad, not good.)
WHAT: Our 10th Anniversary on Sep. 10th. Diane was trying to surprise
me completely but I wore her down... WHAT are you spending your
ENTIRE commission check on? What do you mean it won't arrive for
month after August? Is it coming by mail? Then my calendar gets
mysteriously blocked for 9/9, 9/10, and 9/13... Now I'm warm...
It must be a trip! is it... DISNEY? "I'm never going to try
to surprise you again!" she says. "But the anticipation is half
the fun" I counter lamely.
LAST: Went last year in September, and a whole bunch of times before that.
Too many to count. Can't remember my last hit, only worry about
the next. A true addict.
Gasp! A mod is visiting at the same time as me? Will I actually get to
meet a mod? Are you still going then, Ruth?

312.62 | Trip Update | NODEX::HOLMES | | Wed Jul 28 1993 13:18 | 50 |
| Here's an update (from 312.45) for our trip since a lot has changed.
Most importantly, it's only 22 days to go instead of 115!
when : August 19th - 29th
who : me (Tracy), Norb and Marcie McKenna, their son Patrick
(who will turn 15 while we're there), my cousin Jaime (15)
where : 1 night at Quality Suites, 9 nights at the The Beach Club,
including an 8 day, 7 night World Vacation package. Tacking
on the extra night at either end just seemed like the right
thing to do!
how : United Airlines from Boston to Orlando, non-stop, $198 RT.
We were going to drive, but the price for the flights was right
and we gained two extra vacation days.
We'll have a rental car from National. Sort of expensive,
but we decided that it was worth it. $275.15 for a midsize,
4 door car for 10 days. This includes the 6% sales tax,
the $2.05/day FL fee, an extra driver fee, and a AAA discount.
why : Our supervisor (Marcie's and mine) wanted to know back in
January what our vacation plans were for the year, so we
decided to make some!
last trip : For me, Marcie, and Norb, March 1992. We went with two other
people from work on an 8 day, 7 night World Vacation package
and stayed in the Treehouses. We had a blast! It took them
a while to convince me to do the package then, but what a way
to go! (It didn't take any convincing this time.)
Patrick was last there in June of '89 for an extended-family
reunion -- parents, sisters, aunts, uncles, cousins,
grandparents -- 13 of them all together.
For Jaime it's been several years too -- probably three or
four -- since she was there with her parents and sister.
She's never seen MGM at all and is very psyched to go.
We've been having lots of fun doing our planning and we have all of our
days, meals, and shows pretty well mapped out. Jaime and Patrick are going
on the Wonders of the World -- Art Magic program, and we've got our
Hoop Dee Doo Review reservations for the night of Patrick's birthday.
Today we worked on our Rest and Relaxation time possibilities -- there's so
much to choose from!
We're planning to spend the day before our package starts at Universal Studios
before we check into the Beach Club. It's the only chance to go to Universal,
since once I enter the World, I do not leave! Only 22 days to go!!!
|
312.63 | Party of one to Orlando | SWAM1::STERN_TO | Tom Stern -- Have TK, will travel! | Fri Jul 30 1993 16:22 | 28 |
| When: August 30 - Sept 7
who: So far, just me. I have friends who may try to meet me for
part of the trip, but mostly it'll be just me.
where: Days Suites, Orlando (It's not a wonderful place, but it is
better than many of the places Digital puts me in on the
road, and it has a real kitchen).
how: America West, Burbank to Phoenix to Orlando and back.
Rental car to be determined; only definite so far is that
won't be Alamo.
why: Due to the nature of my scheduling, I put in for vacation
early this year, and was planning on attending the World
Science Fiction Convention in San Francisco. After
hearing from some of the people who are working for the
convention, I decided to cash in the 4 days left on a
ticket I bought for an ex-girlfriend to come with me to
last-year's WorldCon (Which was in Orlando) and the 4
days of stockholders tickets. At this point, with the
airfare and admission covered, a week at Walt Disney World
will be cheaper than a long weekend in San Francisco (and
more fun, too)
last trip: Labor Day weekend last year (For Orlando. For California,
later today)

312.64 | Yet another Honeymoon | AIMHI::STOLARZ | | Fri Jul 30 1993 18:59 | 17 |
| WHEN: November 28- Dec 5
Who: Christine & Tom
Where: Polynesian, Lagoon view, concierge, Vacation Kingdom pkg
Why: Because we'd get bored in Hawaii!
How: Nonstop Logan to Orlando (wedding gift from friends)
Last Trip: Me, 12 years ago for one day (when I was 10!), and
about 10 years ago for him for one day to Epcot.
Comments: The "Wedding" has turned into "that thing I'm doing
before we go to Disney.

312.69 | Nine more days and counting... | TRUCKS::PARMAR | Hindsight has 20-20 vision | Tue Aug 17 1993 13:52 | 8 |

Arriving on 26 Aug for 14 days. This is the first time that we will be going
to Disney anywhere. The party includes wife and two daughters (aged 8� and 6).
Really looking forward to getting in some Disney magic.

312.70 | A few hours is better than nothing! | MSBCS::STEINHARDT | | Mon Oct 11 1993 19:00 | 14 |
| As fate would have it, I'll be at WDW next week presenting at the
annual users group meeting for one of our major software partners.
Thus, on Tuesday Oct. 19th, after 5:30 or so, I'll be able to get some
more value out of my Annual Pass, and more importantly put my Pleasure
Island AP to work checking out the new Jazz Club later that evening.
If anyone is going to be at WDW and wants to rendezvous, drop me a
line, or else look for the solo Splash/Space/Big Thunder Mountain
riding fool.
Cheers,
Ken

Continental from Manchester to Orlando, one stop in Newark
Port Orleans (we ended up staying the entire time here, originally
planned to stay the second week in a timeshare).
BEEN THERE many times
See what it's like for the Christmas and New Years holidays.
Gee, since We were there in 1994 also, should I enter in the 1994
visitors also?

| Annie,
I think entering for '93 suffices 'cause you were there longer in
December than January.
And with that, this topic is now write-locked.
