We've been planning and waiting a long time gang, but it's finally almost here!! Orlando FLight Fest is this weekend!!!

I wanted to start a new thread for any last minute questions and planning. Please PM me if you want need anything at all, including my phone number...

Here is some information from the other thread regarding dinner:


Our big dinner shindig will be at "Spoodles" Restaurant at Disney's Boardwalk Resort at 5:50 PM on Saturday, October 29th.

I chose spoodles, because it is casual but not loud, and there is plenty to do at the Boardwalk after dinner, should we choose to continue the Flight Fest into the wee hours. (There's a MicroBrewery, the ESPN Club, and a dueling pianos bar, and plenty of room to walk around and just stroll if you would like)

Here's a link to the Home Page for Boardwalk. Be sure to take the Virtual Tour:

You should be able to find directions to the Boardwalk on this page. If you are going to EPCOT, I will be with you and we will all go to Boardwalk together.

We are also planning to meet in inside EPCOT for a day in the park.

Here are details of the meeting time and place, again from the other thread:

There's a new garden planter with a big cake-shaped topiary commemorating the 10th anniversary of the Food and Wine Festival right inside the EPCOT main gate. Lets all meet there at, say 10:00 AM on Saturday.

For those of you who do not already have it, PM me and I will provide you with my cel phone number so we can meet up should we get separated.

Then we will spend the day in EPCOT, and all march out the back gate of EPCOT and over to the Boardwalk for dinner. From there, we can go back into EPCOT for fireworks, and after 9:00 to some of the clubs at Boardwalk again for those who like to drink and stay up late (me!!!!)

I hope this information is helpful. Again, please shoot me a PM and I will provide you with my cel phone number so we can be sure to meet up. If you do not plan to go to EPCOT, that's fine too. Those of us who are going to EPCOT will see you at dinner.

If you are not yet registered to attend Flight Fest, but would like to come, please shoot me a PM. ALL ARE WELCOME!!! IT'S NOT TOO LATE!!

Again, feel free to PM me if you have any questions at all, or you can post your questions or thoughts on this thread.

Looking forward to seeing you all there!!!!

Mark -- Kelley affectionaly calls Scott "Scooter" or "Scooter-Butt" - very endearing. I don't know why i call him "Sparky". I just do. The slapping thing? Well, because he NEEDS it! We'll be needing witnesses to the event. You in??
