MiceChat Disney World Invasion - Mid October '08

[Risa]

I am absolutely devastated that I can't attend any of the MC events down in my favorite place in the world.

I have been racing around the "world" for years. It is such a shame that I can't actually be a part of something I am actually good at.

I cannot wait to see everyone's pictures from the Rally, the Sip and Nibble, and the Dessert party!!! I know Fishbulb will have pics up after the first day!

Have fun everybody!!

UPDATED 10-13-08 - The Animal Kingdom Plans have changed slightly to accommodate lunch for 30 at Tusker House)

Here's a reminder about the events for our trip:

First, it is not too late to join us on the trip if you haven't already made plans. Magical Travel is standing by to help you: 2008 Walt Disney World Gumball Rally

Also, please don't forget to sign up for our Gumball Rally. Kevin Yee and the MiceChat Crew have put together a fun and unique event that anyone can compete in and everyone will love - but we need your help to get all the teams registered as soon as possible. If cost is an issue, please contact Dusty right away - we have options for you. The sign up page is available HERE

Our SIP and NIBBLE on the 19 is followed by an exclusive MiceChat Dessert Party viewing of Illuminations (in the lagoon overlook area of China) - however, you'll need to have a ticket to attend the dessert party, please purchase your ticket HERE

And we have several smaller meets planned. Due to the fact that everyone is on different schedules and has different things that they'd like to see and do during the week, the meets listed below are intended to be short but social in nature - a chance for you to connect with other MiceChatters and make additional plans. Now is the right time to start reaching out to your fellow MiceChatters to coordinate your schedules and make meal plans.

Official Meet Schedule:

Oct 17th - Animal Kingdom - Meet at 12:30 at the little courtyard across from the Tusker House and next to the bathrooms followed by lunch at Tusker House and then an exploration of some of the animal trails. It will be a wild adventure. We'll pick up some fast passes along the way.

18th - Gumball Rally Day - 9:30 am -
We'll check in and prepare the teams at the Electric Umbrella Restaurant at Epcot (we'll try to meet inside in the round room that overlooks the fountain - but if the inside is locked we'll use the covered patio outside). Your finish destination will be given to you on game day. The event will finish between 8 and 9pm (we don't want to give away too much right now)

19th (Day) - Epcot - Sip and Nibble Day - 10:30 am - Electric Umbrella Restaurant at Epcot (we'll try to meet inside in the round room that overlooks the fountain - but if the inside is locked we'll be on the covered patio outside).

19th (Night) - Epcot - Dessert Party and Illuminations Viewing - 8:15 pm - China Overlook of the World Showcase Lagoon (The actual event is 8:30 to 9:30 but we'll hand out the wrist bands at 8:15 and chat until they let us into the area)

20th - Magic Kingdom Day - Extra Magic MiceChat Madness - 7:45 PM meet at the Tomorrowland Terrace Noodle Station (just off of Main Street) - we'll watch Spectromagic parade, which starts at 8pm, from the Noodle Station - then we'll head off to enjoy the park at night! If you aren't staying at a WDW resort, please speak with Dusty.

21st - Hollywood Studios - 11 am - Drop in and SCREAM like a MiceChatter. meet at Sunset Ranch Market. At 11:15, we'll head to Tower of Terror for fastpasses and then have lunch at the ABC Commissary. After lunch, we'll play it by ear until it is time for us to drop into the 5th dimension.

And that's our official schedule. But please feel free to make your own plans, attend the meets and events that work for you, or even host meets of your own on days or times that are not covered above.

We are VERY excited to see you all in just a couple of weeks!

If you have any trouble during the trip and/or need help with the schedule or finding other MiceChatters, please add the MiceChat hotline number to your phone directory: (please check your PMs or contact Dusty for this number)
I'll do my best to answer the phone during the trip. If you'd like me to have your number as well, please PM it to me and I'll be happy to call you if plans change or someone is trying to get in touch with you.

All the best,

Dusty

[TDLFAN]

I am looking forward to seeing you guys, even if for only a few minutes.. I have to go to Miami Sunday afternoon and for most of this week, so I won't get to participate much in the festivities... But will try to show up and say hello before you all embark on your nibbling trip around World Showcase.
