You can imagine how daunting the idea of meeting scores of people you've never even posted with must be, but once we arrived and saw that big WELCOME card from SuzieQ, Wendebird, Goodgirl and Diane, plus the card from Mark, in our hotel room, they really felt a part of it all. So, an extra huge THANK YOU to all of you for being such a thoughtful and welcoming bunch! And based on the great success of this year's meet, I'm not so sure Disneyland will be able to accommodate us next year -- perhaps the Anaheim Convention Center would be more appropriate? ; )

Kar2oonMan, your daughter is a riot! I'm so glad I sat next to her at lunch. "Excuse me, Bob?" "Oh, is that our waiter's name?" "I don't know. I'm lousy with names and call everyone Bob." LOL! Your whole family was a pleasure to meet.

Thanks to 3U2 for coordinating the Pirate meet and to Ursula for the Tiki Meet and also to whoever did the POTC meet. What fun to have 40-50 adults singing the Tiki room song and Yo Ho! Too funny! Finally, thanks to Inspector57 for his fabulous presentation at the meet, for his version of the MARKarena, for the live demonstration of the cake and ice cream joke and, of course, for his great impersonation of Johnny Depp! Can't wait 'til next year!

Thanks to Dr. Scholl's for the moleskin (even tho it didn't work, darnit!) Thanks to Doobekah for a fabulous meet and the best web community in existence. And thanks to all of you for "growing" this wonderful, caring community of Disney fans, and for giving us all a place where we can be ourselves, without having to justify our fourth trip to Disney in under a year, LOL!!!!!

I have to ditto everything that has been said here. All of you that I got to know are just wonderful. Thanks for making everything so fun. And for those I didn't get to know too well, I'm looking forward to next year. As someone new to the boards it was wonderful being made to feel part of the LP community.
