    Tim, I willl arriving late on the 12th so my Mousefest starts on the 13th. Put me down for both of your photo sessions in Epcot. I see the dark one is "stationary". This sounds like note pad, camera and tripod for after the discussion. Are you going to have any type of handouts for this meet? Senior moments leave me trying to remember the technical things after they are over. Really interested in how to take pics in the dark rides. Never seem to be able to get anything but blurs. ISO limits in my camera are 200 to 1600. Maybe this is part of my problem. RADP is having a mini-golf at WinterSummerland on Monday evening. I have added it to my schedule. Perhaps you can come to that one. Osborne lights sounds interesting. How would we work the tripods with the crowds?

    Love the idea of an Osborne Lights meet! Of course, as others have mentioned, if we have a big group, that may be a nightmare with the regular guests plus all our tripods.

    Ya'll are making me quite jealous...last year at this time, I had just received my D80, and thought about attending last year, but we had already planned on the following week. Now that we have let our AP's lapse and don't plan on getting them again until next fall, I'm already finding myself needing my WDW fix! (mind you, we were there three times in seven weeks, for a total of 10 park days....)

    Hopefully I'll be able to attend in 2009!

  5. Okay guys, I might be able to make 3 events! And I really really want to learn how to take great pictures (or as my dad says "Im such a freak about it).

    Tell me what goes on at these events, what do I need to bring, and how long do they last?


    Ill be in Disney (our last night) on 12/11 for the 101 meet and my Dad said my mom might be up for going back to Disney our last night in Florida Saturday 12/13 for the Walk Around the World and Night Time events.

    Well, I'm booked at Port Orleans Riverside AND French Quarter for Dec 10-15. All I have to do is register for MouseFest. But, I had to promise my wife that we'd do more than TMIP meets this time

    For those not yet there, but still headed there - we're getting closer! Just about this time in 2 days I'll be jumping in the car and heading up (probably through the rain on Thursday) - no biggie for me as I won't likely be hitting the parks or events on Thursday since I'm arriving late. Weather should be cleared for us after that - with mid-to-upper 70s Friday and warming thereafter...nights a little cooler in the 50's mostly. I would have preferred a cold front myself...but that's because it's been warm and sunny where I live pretty much, ah, forever!

    For those not making it to Mousefest...shame on you! :)

  13. Im out for the 101 meet. Thursday is supposed to be pretty nasty weather wise so were going to the parks tomorrow. I dont have an annual pass (yet) so I dont have enough days to go on Thursday too. But Ill be there Saturday at least for the Walk around the World - havent decided about the Dark Ride met yet.

  15. I know Im bummed too. I even tried to switch tickets with my mom (annual pass) this morning but it made me do the finger print thing so no luck. This whole board is a 101 for me. Ive actually got some decent pictures (about 700) so far I cant wait to show you guys!

    See you Saturday!
