Mickey Mic - A Little Osborne lights, a little Fantasmic - June 16, 2004

21:10:47 [BetsyAnn] Hey Zakerdog

21:11:09 [zakerdog] Hi, how are you tonight?

21:11:28 [BetsyAnn] I am doing OK and yourself?

21:12:08 [zakerdog] Pretty good, I was just reading the thread for Osborne Family Lights and I'm so glad they are back this year.

21:12:43 [BetsyAnn] Me, too - I really thought they were something. I'm interested to see how they do it this year.

21:12:59 [BetsyAnn] When are you going down to WDW?

21:13:28 [zakerdog] we arrive December 10th and stay until Dec. 20th.

21:13:41 [BetsyAnn] That will be so much fun!

21:13:57 [BetsyAnn] Hey Tink1

21:14:05 [Tink1] ola!

21:14:08 [zakerdog] Hi Tink

21:14:36 [BetsyAnn] We were just talking abou the Osborne Family Lights

21:14:40 [Tink1] slow chat nights on nice summer nights

21:15:04 [BetsyAnn] Yep - but the company is always good! :D

21:15:55 [zakerdog] It's just about dark so no more gardening tonight, time for chatting

21:16:06 [Tink1] I have not ever seen osborne lights

21:16:25 [BetsyAnn] It has been raining here all day - thank goodness - it is so dry

21:16:31 [Tink1] the few times I was there in Dec, I just never made it over

21:16:38 [BetsyAnn] Tink - you been down in Dec

21:16:56 [BetsyAnn] Well, it is something you just have to see at least once!

21:17:09 [Tink1] some day, I am going to go and stay until I get it ALL done

21:17:27 [zakerdog] I love the lights, I could go every night

21:17:45 [Tink1] blue

21:18:07 [BetsyAnn] I am going to do Fantasmic this trip - if it kills me! ;)

21:18:39 [BetsyAnn] I was amazed at how much heat those lights gernerated

21:18:41 [Tink1] That I HAVE done

21:18:48 [zakerdog] As soon as Fantasmic is over, head directly to the lights

21:19:21 [BetsyAnn] I have done Fantasmic at DL and love it - never at WDW though

21:19:41 [Tink1] i have to have Betsy take me to DL

21:19:45 [zakerdog] I could not imagine missing Fantasmic, it has to be one of my favourite shows.

21:20:05 [zakerdog] I'll take over Illuminations any time

21:20:16 [BetsyAnn] Yes you do, Nanci - so when are we going ;)

21:20:45 [Tink1] mmmm.....not sure, after Tokyo DL I suppose

21:21:08 [BetsyAnn] It is so funny - at DL you have to stake out a place to see it hours before, sit on the ground and I just don't want to wait for it at WDW - no sense! :)

21:21:50 [BetsyAnn] I want to have all the details on Tokyo DL - and I mean all the details -- that trip just keeps being put back

21:22:06 [BetsyAnn] for me! ;)

21:22:12 [zakerdog] do the dinner package and then you get in just 1/2 hour before show time

21:22:29 [Tink1] once I figure it all out, I will Betsy! LOL

21:23:03 [Tink1] speaking of Japan, I need to go finalize the paperwork for Gil's visa application.

21:23:27 [Tink1] have a good one Zak and Bets

21:23:29 [BetsyAnn] I think I will -- I have to coordinate with my traveling companions this time - I am so used to my family saying you plan it but now there are people who actually plan WDW trips and it is so hard to coordinate!

21:23:32 [BetsyAnn] :D

21:23:47 [BetsyAnn] Good luck, Tink - talk to you later!

21:24:39 [BetsyAnn] Carol - where do you all usually eat for the package

21:25:11 [zakerdog] I've eaten at Mama Melrose's & the Hollywood Cafe

21:25:29 [zakerdog] I prefer Mama Melrose

21:25:42 [BetsyAnn] Never been to Mama Melrose -- what is good there?

21:26:26 [BetsyAnn] Welcome justjan! How are you tonight?

21:26:28 [justjan] Hi everyone - sorry to be so late

21:26:37 [zakerdog] It is very good, excellent Italian food. I also liked Brown Derby.

21:26:40 [justjan] Doing Great - how about you

21:26:50 [zakerdog] Hi justjan

21:27:21 [BetsyAnn] no problem Jan - we are mainily talking about Osbrone lights and Fantasmic right now - but anything is up for grabs tonight!

21:27:21 [zakerdog] It's to bad Prime Time isn't one of the package dinner options because it is my very favorite

21:27:29 [BetsyAnn] I am doing OK!

21:27:47 [BetsyAnn] I was thinking that too, I love the Prime time!

21:28:06 [justjan] Ooh - My son and I were there 2 years ago in December and saw the lights - amazing

21:28:41 [BetsyAnn] They are great for sure, jan!

21:29:22 [justjan] I did not think a 5 year old would really appreciate it but he still talks about them

21:30:52 [BetsyAnn] I bet! They are overwhelming for me - can't imagine what a 5 yr would think!

21:30:56 [justjan] I have an October question...Last year we went on Columbus day weekend - it was so crowded. If we go the week before or stay after do either of you know how the crowds are and when they clear out?

21:31:46 [BetsyAnn] I think the crowds should thin out immediately afterward or not be too bad until Thursday or so before

21:32:51 [justjan] Thanks - last year my son was in kindergarten and I felt funny pulling him out of school for a trip but after seeing all the other parents - this year I have no problem....

21:33:57 [BetsyAnn] LOL Jan - I don't hink at his age it should be too much of a problem for him. My parents pulled me out of school until about Jr high - then it got too tough

21:35:05 [justjan] He is a little control freak though - last weekend we were offered some Sky Box tickets for a Cubs game and he turned it down to play a TBall game - go figure

21:35:28 [zakerdog] I think a week at WDW is as educational at that age as a week in school, if not more

21:35:50 [justjan] That's my story too -

21:35:56 [BetsyAnn] LOL jan

21:36:05 [BetsyAnn] I agree zakerdog

21:36:52 [BetsyAnn] My one of my favorite commericals for Disney is the one the child picks Walt as the subject of his research paper and they have to go to gather info! :D

21:37:03 [justjan] Actually he has learned a lot there - he gets right up to CM's and asks questions like crazy -

21:38:08 [BetsyAnn] That is good, jan!

21:38:18 [zakerdog] I remember one year when my son was young his teachers asked him to keep a journal as his homework assignment

21:38:56 [justjan] That is a great idea - we may try that this trip. That would be right up his alley too

21:39:08 [BetsyAnn] Great idea

21:40:23 [zakerdog] My son was quite a comedian, he wanted to know if his autograph book would work!!

21:40:31 [justjan] I need to go put the little king to bed so - have a great night guys - talk to you again soon!

21:40:46 [BetsyAnn] Goodnight Jan - have a good night.

21:41:05 [zakerdog] I think I'll sign off too, good night all

21:41:19 [BetsyAnn] Have a good night Carol - catch you later!
