BTM: So sorry to hear about your little guy and I hope he is doing much better. The little ones tend to heal so quickly!

I packed this weekend for our trip! I am so excited!

I'm going to take some pics of my Disney Cruise scrapbook and post them. I did a really cool 2-page layout for the Pirate Party.

Off to more voting...
 
I know you’ve all been waiting eagerly for the unveiling of the DIS-nee Family Map. Ladies and gentlemen, here it is … Dis-nee Family Map

I hope I haven’t left anyone out. If I did, let me know and I’ll be glad to add you. Without logging in, the use of the map is pretty simple. It is just Google maps. You can use the tool in the upper left corner of the map to zoom in or out or to pan around the map. By using the tools in the upper right corner, you can see a Regular, Satellite, or Hybrid map. You can also choose the Legend tab and select Show All Marker Tiles to display everyone’s name on the map at the same time. If you do this, the map does get a little clustered. It does give you a better perspective of where everyone’s at though.

If you hover over one of the red markers on the map, it will display who that person is. The same applies with the list of people in the column on the left. If you actually select the red marker or from the column, it will open a window with a picture of that person as well as the city that person is in. Within this window, you can actually get directions from point to point.

Might I suggest that everyone gets familiar with using this map. You never now, you might need to use it for something in the near future. :scratchin :confused3

Wow - brilliant! I love how much detail you added - the avatars and everything!

What a fun way to visualize where everyone is located!

Great job, Brad!

Hey guys, just got a call from this crazy DISboard lady all excited and talking fast. Then I hear screaming and yelling, and laughing. :hyper2: Seems that the first crazy lady (who we know as Cat!) just ran into another crazy DISboard lady (who we know as CalDisneyFamily) at Animal Kingdom!

Pretty cool, I thought--there they are in the huge world of Disney and they run into each other out of the blue! I got to say hi to CalDisney which was really neat! They are all having such a great time!

I'm sure they'll have more pics coming soon!

First crazy lady here saying - oops! We were too busy talking, laughing, and screaming to think of pictures! :lmao:

That was the weirdest thing, that without planning, or knowing where they'd be, that they's catch me sitting on a bench and talking to tothesea!

So how about a a couple where's Tigger? I'm still making them toooooo easy!

Where's Tigger?

Man am I jealous of everyone...back and forth to Disney....pics of Disney....
I wanna go to Disney!!!!!

(3guys throws tantrum on floor)


Something else I have wanted to do is RV it across the country, zig zagging to see all the sites, while taking our time and enjoying the ride. I have been wanting to do that since my senior year of high school.


I'm with you there Tripp... a cross country road trip would be amazing…

Any one read any Bill Bryson? He's a travel writer - and a very funny one (well, actually he writes more than travel these days, but that's what made him famous) and every one of his books makes me want to jump in my car and go!

:wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard:

Well, now… It seems like a lot of folks (including myself) would love to drop everything and hit the open road on a cross-country trip!

Why wait?

So, pack your bags! It’s time for our DISnee Resort Family’s first-ever Virtual Road Trip! We’ll zigzag across the U.S. in our virtual Party Bus, stopping along the way to pick up anyone who’s interested in joining the fun.

Our final destination: Disneyland, where – hopefully! – Fairy Gmother and CalDisneyFamily will be waiting to greet us at the end of our “tripp.”**

**(How was that, BTM? :teeth: )

:wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard:

Here’s How it will Work:

:car: If you’d like to participate, then let me know (either within this thread or by PM). And, if you haven’t already, send Madbrad your location, and he’ll add it to our spiffy new Disnee Family map.

(Deadline: Friday, April 18)

(If you’re already on the map, but don’t care to participate, no worries! :hippie: We’ll just wave as we pass through your city! ;) )

:car: In a few days, we’ll post an updated map with our route charted and an “itinerary” of people’s pick-ups. (Really, it’s just the order of our stops along the way…)

:car: When the Party Bus reaches your “pick-up” spot, post a “must-see” tourist spot, a quirky destination or a hidden gem near your hometown. That way, our DISnee family can do a little sightseeing en route!

:car: And, of course, we’ll also share our silly observations along the way – like this funny road sign or a pit-stop at South of the Border to fuel up on gas and gawk at that hideously huge sombrero.

:car: This will be a leisurely journey with a tag-team approach. (Once the person who precedes you in the itinerary posts his/her tourist pit-stop, then it’s time for your pick-up. Feel free to post when you’re ready, and – if you’re going to be out of pocket – forward the details in a PM to me, Cat or MadBrad, and someone would be happy to post for you!

We’ll just take our time, and enjoy the ride! :cool2:

:car: The Party Bus is currently scheduled to depart on Tuesday, April 22 (sometime after the CMO contest has wrapped and our winner has been announced).

Our first order of business: Finding the perfect vehicle! 3guys: How big is your luxury RV? As the DISnee Resort’s Director of Transportation, I’m thinking you should scout out the perfect set of wheels for our long-distance trip.

Otherwise, if it was my decision, we might get stuck with this: :scared1: The Doodlebops’ “Get on the Bus”

Ooooh! Oooooh! I see him! I see him! :teeth:
 
Thanks for the well wishes on both the WDW trip (thwarted by the van problem) and my son's recent meeting with the ground at pre-school. :)
 
Thanks for the update...glad you got time to vote. I ate my lunch and voted over and over and over and over and over and over again. It was almost as addicting as this thread itself! :rotfl:

Thanks too for the info on the podcast for DVC hopefuls. We're still debating. One minute we are all in yes...and then we look at the stuff that needs to get fixed around the house and we say No. Then we say yes, and then we say no! Could someone here just decide for us? We're way too flip floppy on this one! :confused3 ;)
One vote for "YES".
 
One vote for "YES".

Gotta go with Junior on this! Really, if you guys can, it'd be perfect while your kids are still such perfect ages! (Even the oldest that lives up north! ;) )


Madbrad! Amazing job on the map! LOVE it! Nice touch with the avatars too! You really did a great job...thanks for all the time it took! :thumbsup2


DISgeeks, great idea! Don't forget to pick me up...I'll be standing on the corner holding a sign! :goodvibes

Gotta go get caught up, I've missed so much!
 
So much fun going on right now! I found Tigger.... yay Cat! And I totally want to be included in the party bus DISgeeks.... sounds like fun.
 
WW -- Make that 3 votes for DVC!!

Cat -- great Where's Tigger game!

DisGeeks! -- yes, I want to play!! What a fantabulous idea!! Just a quick question...are we supposed to just pick one place or should we pick several covering a variety of interests?
 
Well, Tripp is taking this Chief "Magic" Official stuff really seriously.

Work that magic Tripp...work that magic. :)

Okay, this is a LITTLE bit harder - but still too easy! Hope I can get a really hard one soon!

Where's Tigger?

Shout out to 3guysandagal!
 
Where's Tigger?

Found him! (How fun!)

My DD has this Baby Simba and loves him. We purchased him during our visit last Fall. (In fact, she loves him sooo much, he's not quite so new and clean-looking as those in your picture, Cat!)
 
Still working on uploading the video...I'm trying to edit it so you can't hear me whisper "action."
