You had me at BEER.

My DS4 and I are doing a boys only trip that week and DHS is on our "radar" (which is my code word for my supercalifragilistic microsoft excel spreadsheet with days, EMH's, Parade times, ADR times and confirmation #'s for our TS and tours, best CS options at each park, colors and caluculations sheet ) for the 17th.

I was planning on a break between our morning at DHS and our dinner ADR at 1900PF/MK plans that night anyway.

Since pastries and beer are perfectly acceptable things to eat/drink right before dinner and won't ruin your appetite , and since DHS is practically connected to the France/UK International Gateway by boat, I'm thinking its completely doable.

So please excuse me while I go update my supercalifragalistic spreadsheet and account for the Snack Credit I'll be using on a Napoleon in France.

Too bad I can't use a SC on a Guinness (Where did the beer icon go?)

LOL at "you had me at beer" My hubby's sentiments exactly. I am so impressed with ur spreadsheet. As soon as I get everything planned out hubby is going to make me one. I hate excel. We would love to have you at the meet! My ODD 5 will be there for sure!
Here's a little something for ya

DISers invade France in a frenzy!! That may have to be the name of my next trip report!!

That's a good call, Rosie! In addition to our huge group picture, we probably need to get some not-so-big pictures are well - like with two or three groups at a time....this is gonna be fun!

Dude, I feel like kindred spirits!! A guys-only trip with your son, an excessive excel spreadsheet planner, and beer drinker....we are practically the same person!!!

We would love to have you and your DS join us for the meet! That's a great plan about hitting DHS and coming on over to Epcot for an afternoon "snack." It is probably a good thing that Disney doesn't have Guiness as a snack credit or I would use ALL of mine at R&C! I know MaryAZ's DH is a beer guy as well.

I think colinsdad needs to share his spreadsheet with all of us! That sounds like something that would be right up my alley! I used to hate Excel, but I've been working with it at work now for about 6 years and I've gotten to where I use it for EVERYTHING!

By the way, colinsdad, the beer drinking smiley is :drinking with a 1 after the g.

CHEERS!!

I was thinking that it would be fun if we could hunt down a photopass photographer in France to take our picture. That way everybody and their families could get in the shot. Can you imagine how big that group would be!

I'm so excited!! This is going to be HUGE!!

And thanks for letting me know everyone if a spot opens in your photopass share!! I won't have a ton of pics, since I'll be there with friends and not my family, but I am hoping for a few!!

 

[mhartel1]

I will be in the world that week and I think I planned Epcot for that day but will have to double check. We are a party of 8 (me & dh & our 2 kids (5 & 2), brother & his DW & their 2 kids (3 & 2). I will double check the days.

 

[englishrose47]

Oh, and here's a sidebar for those who are interested. We have some beer connoiseurs in our midst, so some of us are planning to slide over to the Rose & Crown for a pint after our meet, if we can get in. (If they cannot accommodate us, we can always slide over to Norway for a Carlsbad!)

Hi Englishrose47! I am a group of 2- myself and my DF Lonnie- and I'm not sure if she posted, but Karajeboo is with us, too, and alone.

Can't wait for this!!! Hope we'll be awake- Lonnie and I are doing the sunrise safari that day, so if we're a little out of it, you'll understand why, i hope!
