1. What date range would work best for you?

Anything after the beginning of October. Temps are cooler then and less of a crowd. Hotels will be cheaper too.

2. How long should this thing be? 3 days, 3 years, give me an idea.

A long weekend or maybe 3 or 4 days during the week. Again, less crowded and cheaper. But that could make it harder for people to miss school/work.

3. What kind of activities would you like to see? Disney, Universal, Sea World, Medival Times, etc.

I don't do rides but don't let that stop others from going. I would love to go to Epcot. I've been to Sea World a few times and it's good for the money. So is Universal. I've never been to Medival Times so that would be cool too.

4. What class of hotel would you prefer (dirt cheap, decent, nicer, on-property at a theme park).

I think we should get a block of rooms at a hotel or at one of the resorts. Maybe some of us could share a room. Afterall, I'm pretty sure some of us will just pass-out together in someone's room anyway.

5. What is your maximum $$ that you could spend for airfare & hotel (keep in mind you will still need to eat once in a while, unless you pack lots of glucose gel).

Money is tight right now because of the past six months, but should be better in October.

6. How many people would be in your party (you & a guest, etc)

It will be either just me or me and my girl. Not sure.

7. Any other comments/suggestions?

Nope
 
Just to add, Epcot rocks, I love that place. Sea world is ok, Disney is very kid-oriented, and Universal is awesome. Bush Gardens is my personal fav, but that's not anywhere near Orlando. Just some experience talking if we're thinking of going to those places. Also, Chimpie is right, prices drop in October. And there are A LOT of other things to do in Orlando than the main parks.

Just my 2 pennies kicking around.
 
Dixie Stampede, Wet N' Wild, Downtown Orlando, Pleasure Island, International Drive, City Walk, nude beach...haha just a few more around here

Pleasure Island definitely... I like the club with the rotating dance floor. :)

I heard a rumor that Church Street Station is no more - is that true?

Me thinks you wouldn't want to see some of the members of this forum (myself included) on a nude beach. :P

Sadly, that's true, Church Street is no more.

As far as that club at PI, it's called Manequin's (sp?), and it's known as the "Alternative Lifestyle" club there. :blink:

No more Rosie O'Grady's? :o :angry:
 
It's getting close to September/October, is anyone still wanting to do this? I know I'd still love to see all your pretty faces ;) Maybe we need to change the time so it's more convenient?
 
we could meet in New Orleans... have a "working vacation" :rolleyes:

As for the actual date... October works better than September, but it can't be the middle weekend...

Have to get your Garbage Pail Kids Halloween costume ready?
 
I won't be able to go for awhile. With the rise in gas and not working full time right now money is a little tight.

Now, if anyone wants to share a room..... :P

HEY!!!

If you guys go to Orlando - let me know, I WANNA COME!!!!!!

I live about 11 miles from Orlando :)



CAN I CAN I CAN I??

Just throwing a tantrum like my kids....

Hey, maybe by then, I will have my certs???? I can show them off, nice and shiny!!!!!!!!!!!!

(Insert Prayer Here)
 
I guess the only thing I have to comment on with this is that it should deffinately be placed in an area of the country where East and West coast as well as the midwest folks all have to deal with as close to the same ammount of travel expenses as possible. I do like the idea of going down to the big easy but we would really have to jump on that quickly.
 
I think going to the Big Easy was just a joke. There's nothing left there. Casinos are all gone. Businesses are empty because of looting. And even if we were to volunteer our efforts we'd probably not do it together. We had a group of 5 from our chapter go and within minutes of landing were all seperated from each other. :o

Even though Orlando is not centered, with air travel you really don't have to be. Grab a plane, fly to their hub, then fly into Orlando. In addition to this, there are many members here that are in Florida, or in neighboring states.
 
Well we pretty much had it all set up. Oct/Sept isn't really too good for me either. Maybe we should do this after the holidays in light of all that's going on.
 
Well those of you that do go have a good time. I am sure you will let us all know how it goes...
 
If anything, we could all go down, stare at the ground, take pictures of us shaking our own hands, nod our heads and thank and congradulate each other repeatedly for doing absolutely nothing, except maybe remembering the names of the states and cities... It seems to be working for Gee Dubbya and his cronies.
