| 312.1 | Back in May | CSTEAM::STEINHARDT |  | Tue Aug 11 1992 17:30 | 13 | 
|  |     When: May 7th->May 16th, 1993
    Who:  The Steinhardt family (me, my wife, twin daughters who will be 8, 
    	  son who will be 5), and my wife's parents.
    Where: Caribbean Beach Resort (again), requested Martinique, adjoining

    	 Pittsburgh
    Last trips: 12/91, 5/91, 10/90, 1/86, 6/82, 11/78
    Why:  It's still 9 months to go and I've got the 'itis bad.  Kids are
    	  bugging me to see the new stuff (B&tB show, VOTLM, Muppets 3D,
    	  Splash Mountain).  My son (currently 4) wants to go on Humunga
          Kowabunga.

| 312.2 | Xmas in Florida at last. | KERNEL::WHITAKER |  | Tue Sep 15 1992 03:11 | 23 | 
|  |     WHEN:	December 12th 1992 --> January 1993
    WHO:	Me plus my better-half Wanda, plus Wanda's sister
    		Lidia, plus her husband Dave, plus their 3 kids, plus 
    		Wanda and Lidia's mum, Rosa 
    WHERE:	Private home near Kissimmee
    HOW:	Cheap charter (Monarch Airlines) from the UK .. only 
    		�256 for 28 nights
    WHY:	Always wanted to experience a warm Xmas (fingers firmly
    		crossed for good weather), and as company Xmas celebrations 
    		have been cancelled for business reasons in the UK, I had
    		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.

	  Splash Mountain - new shows to see - new hotels to visit
          may be last big trip with entire family!

|  |     When:	January 24th - February 2nd
    
    Who:	Five Jensens -- me, my husband Keith, our son Josh
    		(5 yrs. old), Keith's sister and brother -- we have
    		experience vacationing as a group and have figured
    		out how to put up with each other!  :)
    
    Where:	Ft. Wilderness Trailer Home (MKC reservation with 30% 
    		off-season discount, no vacation package -- still waiting
    		to see the '93 prices)

    WHEN:	May 29 - June 6
    
    WHO:	Bert and Debbie Grubbs (no kids yet...!)
    
    HOW:	We both finally saved up enough miles on American

    WHERE:	Econolodge Maingate West -- stayed there on a driving
    		trip last year and really enjoyed the convenience for the
    		price ($32/night).  It's three miles west of the Disney

    		if you stay east of I4.
    
    WHY:	We are HOOKED bigtime.  First trip for me, long time ago
    		when I was a kid (COLD December trip).  Second trip (Deb's 
    		first) Honeymoon Trip in May 1991.  Third trip last April

    		the US, and we went there for a long "girls only" weekend!

    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

    LAST:: 1st time.  (I've been to Disneyland, about 15 years ago.)
    
    WHY::  I've been wanting to go since the 1st time I peeked in this

|  |     Who:  Peter and Rowena (my daughter 7)
    
    When: April 19 -23
    
    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.

    what I will do in "life after DEC"....

| 312.39 | First Time Visit, Trans ??? | LJOHUB::DYER |  | Mon Apr 05 1993 14:40 | 20 | 
|  |     We plan to visit in Oct, 93.  I have never been before but my husband
    has.  He drove down.  We are undecided about whether to drive, fly or
    take a train?  Would this be the right note to ask about this?
    
    Has anybody ever taken the train from Boston/Worcester?  Cost?
    Time to get there?  
    
    When:  Oct 10 for 2 weeks give or take a few days
    Where: Renting house for one week in Kissimee or staying inside WDW
           the second week.  Carribean?
    
    Who:  Who do you call to make reservations inside of WDW?  Is there
          one central reservationist?
    
          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.

| 312.42 | Thanksgiving at Disney!!! | SAHQ::BAILEYS |  | Tue Apr 13 1993 08:38 | 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!!!!
    
    I am definitley going to find out all the information on Thanksgiving
    weekend in this file, but if anyone has any additional information for
    Thanksgiving weekend please let me know!!!!

| 312.43 |  | SOLVIT::REDZIN::DCOX |  | Wed Apr 14 1993 12:29 | 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.

    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....

 | 
| 312.45 | 115 days and counting! | 12027::HOLMES |  | Tue Apr 27 1993 14:15 | 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!!!

    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.

    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!

    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 08:09 | 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.

           available)
    Last trips: 12/89, 5/90, 12/91
    Why:   Unexpected semi-emergency trip to see in-laws in Naples. As 
           long as we're spending the airfare we might as well have some fun! 
           Tampa is a good compromise for arrival/departure and car rental 
           reasons (Value compact car for $107.99 for one week with 
           unlimited mileage!). 
           Besides, reading this file lately has given me the -itis

    Where: Dixie Landings (BOG Special)
    
    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.
    
    Why: This is a stupid question. :-)
    
    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.

    How:  Fly out of Logan through Mississippi to visit Lizzy's brother
    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.

    		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.

|  | WHO:	Bill Abrams and wife, Diane
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 12:18 | 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 15:22 | 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)

    Who:   Christine & Tom

    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.

| 312.70 | A few hours is better than nothing! | MSBCS::STEINHARDT |  | Mon Oct 11 1993 18:00 | 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.
