    The Hamettes and yours truly will be at ;Disney's Vero Beach from August 23rd to 27th.

    WDW Boardwalk Villas August 29 to Sept 4.

    Aug to 27 to 29 TBA most likely in the WDW area.

    Who else will be in the 407 and wants to meet up?

    This August celebrates the fifth anniversary of our family's first visit to WDW.

    We are doing Magic Kingdom on Sunday the 29th and Hollywood Studios on the 30th. ; The rest of the time is relaxing by the pool, playing some golf and enjoying the food.

    You bet were gonna be there......and we have plans to be in the Magic Kingdom on the 29th as well. ; We will probably head there for rope drop, stay until noon, head back to AKL for swim, lunch and then head back around dinner time and extended hours so we can enjoy the park in cooler weather and smaller crowds. ; Why don't you join us hamham and we could all do a meet.

    Let me run it by the head Hamette. We usually avoid the parks on the week end. Any idea of what the crowds will be like?

    Crowds will be fairly quiet....US kids already back to school. ; Most locals come on saturdays, and were planning early morning (rope drop), enjoy the pools in the afternoon and head back around 4ish to stay late with the extended hours for hotel guests. ; We should be able to walk onto to most attractions.

    Well were staying at AKL ; Aug27 to Sept 2 with the last 3 nights on the concierge level. ; Hamham and family are at Boardwalk and we will probably go over there for a visit and they will come to AKL at some point for visits. ; Let's PM our contact info while were down there and try and do a meet. And that way you have some one to visit at AKL. ; We can also take you on a tour.....a must see if you have never been.

    Realfam you have my info so why not have Goofycdn send his info to you and you can be the party planner.

    More than happy to have everyone over to our Boardwalk digs at some point.

    Do ; you still have the same US phone number. I think when I renew it will be with a different #. I would like a 321 area code like you have.

    I will bring down a small tripod so DD 16 can learn from the master on shooting fireworks.

    Do you think I need to get her the remote for her DSLR?

    Not sure if I will have my US # this year. ; I will definately have my CDN cell (you got the number) that I will be using anyway because of work. ; I already sent Goofycdn a PM and will try and be the party planner. ; Weve already scheduledd ourselves in to have a Welcome Wednesday party and swim at your place.
    Definately wanna shoot some fireworks. ; I am bringing a gorilla pod (just really tough to carry a tripod around WDW, plus once you set it up everyone is walking into it) and a remote shutter makes the world of difference.
    Any luck with the car rental?

    I have the SLR-ZOOM Gorillapod which will support up 3.3kg, not cheap but very convenient
