DLR Meeting End of October

**Chescat** · 08-12-2007, 01:27 AM

Genie has been after me to start a post on the "Meet and Greet Ice" DLR meeting end of October.

I think we are looking at Saturday night (Oct 27th) and Sunday (Oct 28th).

A bunch of people have black out days on AP passes on Sat and Ice doesn't make it until that afternoon. So might be a good idea to meet somewhere in Downtown Disney on Sat night since that would be Genie's only day we could see him. And then in Disneyland or DCA on Sunday.

Let me all know what you think. I already have one list going. Some people are working out their schedules, so won't mention names right now unless they post here.

Were at in Down Town and like what time?

**terri.m** · 08-12-2007, 11:44 AM

I think Saturday is the day we're heading to Huntington Beach for the day but we'll be at Disney at night. I'm sure me and the kids can sneak away from the group to meet you all.

Even if I cant come up with the cash to do a whole trip, I'll drive down for saturday and sunday at least.

**TinkRocks** · 08-12-2007, 01:09 PM

I wanna meet Ice!

I wanna meet Genie too!

So the way this sounds like. I still can go to Ariel's on that day. So Pink I need to know very soon if you will be there on the 27th so I can make a call to Disney to put my order in for 5 and the time to be there. I'm going to try and get a 1:10pm meal time for Ariel's if that's ok with you Pink.

**Chescat** · 08-12-2007, 02:46 PM

Since DH's pass is black out for Saturday, you won't be seeing us until later in the afternoon. Took a lot of convincing just to get him to do what I'm doing since we will just be back a week from our other trip. Our plan is more for Sunday.

**terri.m** · 08-12-2007, 04:41 PM

Well I'll be there until the 30th so anytime is good with me!

**Blue Genie** · 08-12-2007, 04:44 PM

So it sounds then I will miss everyone then.

I can't be there on sunday.

**terri.m** · 08-12-2007, 04:57 PM

oh i won't miss meeting you genie!!

I can't go all that way and not get to meet you!!

**Blue Genie** · 08-12-2007, 05:08 PM

We need to fine the right time then.

**Chescat** · 08-12-2007, 05:31 PM

No we are saying we can't go in the park, we can meet in Downtown Disney maybe early evening.

Genie, nothing is set in stone on whether or not we are going to make it. My family would love to be there for Halloween, however the plans for that trip are still on hold. Maybe it would be best to count us out. And then if we do make it, we can meet up in Downtown Disney later that night with everyone.

**Blue Genie** · 08-12-2007, 10:26 PM

All right then Pink. Thx for letting me know.

Whoa, miss a day of Intercot and look what happens!!
Love the title y'all have come up with:

the "Meet and Greet Ice" DLR meeting end of October.

Since there's an official thread now I can give up my plans;
We will fly in the 27th (Saturday as Cat said) around 2:45 pm. We still gotta track down transporation from the airport to our hotel, which from what all I've gathered could be an hour or so adventure. So I'm guessing we'll be at the hotel by at least 4:30-5:00 pm. WE WILL BE HUNGRY after the flight & ready to hit Downtown Disney to start our spending spree!!
The initial plan had us leaving the 31st, and we have to make a few calls ASAP to the airline & Disney to change that to leave instead 2 days later instead... putting us leaving Friday morning the 2nd. BUT WE HAVE TO MAK THISE CALLS TOMORROW!!!
Game for a DTD meet the night of the 27th and maybe some hanging out on the 28th.
Christy just found this info though that may influence some stuff; Another site has reported that the park will be closing early on the 29th, 30th & 31st for the Mickey's Hallowen Treat from 6:30 to 10:30. Tickets to this extra hour event are $40. What I'm supposing is then (and she's already said as much) that since we don't wanna have to have traveled all that way to have the park close so early on us that we will need to pay to stay in the park after hours? Are there going to be rides open during this event, or is it just Trick-or-Treating? Does this effect both DLR & DCA these nights? I'm on a serious need to know basis as time is running out quickly now...

Okay just looked up on the Disneyland website. Go to this link:

https://tickets.disney.go.com/buy/Ti...x3IWWxP2YrM%3D

that should give you the dates and availability. RainyDaisy told us tonight that they weren't come your weekend because the Oct 26th tickets were sold out. The past 2 years, the event occurred only at DCA and that's what was closed early. Not Disneyland. Now during the week during off season the parks do close earlier. Hope this helps!

These tickets purchased online are also $10 cheaper.

So, it's held at DCA? Do the rides stay open for the event? I'm gonna call and bug me some poor CM tomorrow with a barrage of annoying questions!

I know the last two years it was definitley at DCA. I'm going to do some more digging for this year. I think they rides were open. The expert on this is RainyDaisy but I don't think I'd be able to talk to her before tomorrow.

Check back here in the morning or in a couple hours and I'll get more info.

**varcity** · 08-13-2007, 02:18 AM

Asked my retired VMK partner to go today. Im 90% sure I can go. Personal suggestion for food: HoB. I will probably be there friday night and spend all saturday (think I heard no blackout tonight?) and half sunday in park. BBut, as things get closer I can give for sure plans. Depends on school too.

Too excited!!!

**terri.m** · 08-13-2007, 11:20 AM

OK we've hit a small snag here. My SIL was in a serious car accident last summer and she's still in talks w/her insurance company. Her lawyer found out about the trip and told her absolutely NO rides and no pics of her even being there!!! We're talking about postponing until she is able to go on rides but nothing is set yet. We have to decide fairly soon though before our deposit return gets smaller!

I'll let you all know as soon as we decide. If we don't go in Oct we probably won't go until Jan/Feb.
