| Re: Kirk\'s Birthday Trip Surprise - Pre-Trip Report, Updated May 20 Well, I won't know the results of this whole strike vote scenario until the end of this week but I decided to go ahead and order my Disney Dining Experience card anyways. I figure you just have to have faith. ![]() Joy |

| Re: Kirk\'s Birthday Trip Surprise - Pre-Trip Report, Updated May 20 The Disney planning DVD just came in the mail so I'm going to immerse myself in that and try to forget that today is strike vote day. Thanks so much for all the no strike pixie dust and please keep it coming. We can use all the help we can get. I guess by tomorrow we should know the outcome. Joy |

| Re: Kirk\'s Birthday Trip Surprise - Pre-Trip Report - Good News & Bad News I'll start with the bad news. Our union voted 60 per cent in favor of rejecting the government's contract offer so that gives the union a mandate to strike should they choose to excercise it. For now, they're going back to the bargaining table so we'll be on pins and needles until they get this settled. They can call a strike at any time now with only 48 hours notice but I'm hoping that doesn't materialize. The good news is that my darling, wonderful husband, Kim, has insisted that I go on this trip to surprise Kirk, strike or no strike. His reasoning is that the flight is already paid for, Kirk has paid for the hotel accommodations, I have an annual pass and so the only real expense will be my meals. So I guess I'm going now irregardless. The only difference will be that if there's a strike, this will have to be a bargain trip. I've never been much of a counter-service person when it comes to WDW meals but this time around, I may be cutting corners expense-wise any way I can. But the main thing is that I am still going and I will still get to surprise Kirk by showing up! ![]() Joy |
