| The Reunion Tour- A Pre Trip Report *New-6/7* Planning Your Adventure: Your Plans
Okay folks I'm going to give it a try . . . I'm going to PTR and TR at the same time, so hold on to your hats. At best guess, I'll try and update this PTR at night while finishing my DoD TR in the mornings. Wait . . . Wine . . . BRB.
For any of you wine bargin hunters out there: Whole Foods has some house Chard and Merlot on sale for $3.65 a bottle. The Merlot is passable and the Chard is fine (okay I've got it on ice)
For those of you not so bargin wine hunters I had a bottle of Rocket Science ($44) that was SO not a $44 bottle of wine, shouldn't have run me more than $20--unimpressed. It did not live up to the fullness promised by my wine hack.
Okay back to the Pre Trip Report, which along with the Trip Report will probably involve lots of wine. Stay tuned for nightly wine reviews!
Who did that nut job Heather finally get to go on vacation with her? No not her family . . . that seems to be a lost cause. Brandon and I are taking HIS family on vacation with us. I didn't even have to pay them!
(Okay so maybe we did pay for the room using our DVC points, but that's not the same as bribery is it?)
So who are these people?
Me--Heather--Yeah you know me . . . 
Thats me at Mousefest '08
Brandon--my best friend--currently exiled to St Thomas USVI in the kitchen of the Ritz Carlton, currently treasure hunting for the escape hatch. He's been to WDW twice with me. 
Brandon's Mom--Julia
I don't have a picture on my computer of any of the Cooler-Scheffksy Family
Julia hasn't been to WDW in 20 years
Julia's Husband--Mark
I don't know that Mark has ever been to WDW, though its possible
Brandon's Brother--Blake
This will be Blake's first trip to WDW--he just turned 17.
At the outset of this I was given total control, that of course also means total resposibility for everyone having a good time! I hope I manage to accomplish that!
In addition to Our Fam we're going to be seeing lots of other friends. A whole bunch of Passporters will be joining us for FABs at the Mexican Pavillion and Illuminations on June 9.
Jilly and her Fam will be making an appearance along with Karen and her Fam, Eileen and Sharon! We'll be sure to raise our glasses to friends with us in spirit . . .
I'm not sleepy yet, so I'll continue in the next post with our travel plans and accomodations.
