- Comments: As I post this report, in October
2002, this is truly a flashback to almost three years ago. I
find that it's really fun to go back and read some of the older
reports as they often spark rememberances about my own trips
from years gone by that I'd forgotten about.

- Comments: Quoting from the report, "It's
hard to imagine that if all goes according to our plan, we'll
have our child with us next time we're at WDW...We went this
time with the knowledge that this is the last time it will be
all about what we want...That's why we were looking forward
to this last opportunity to visit WDW as a couple -- one last
blast before we become parents." Of course, Barb
and I had a "final, no-kids" trip, too. And
a second one. And a third. And a fourth. We
ended up waiting three years for our son to come along
;)

- Comments: This is a summary style report,
not as greatly detailed as some...and I know a lot of you like
that! The Gill's traveled with their two children, ages
four and two, so if you're wondering what it's like to do WDW
with kids, here's at least one example.

- Comments: Rachel visited WDW during the December
RADP. This is just a fun report filled with recollections
from the trip. It's not an intense play-by-play, but very
fun to read.

- Comments: A shorter report, but chocked-full
of detail. The descriptions of the decorations at Wilderness
Lodge are priceless! One unique twist to this report is
that, since Dennis had been to Disneyland Paris twice in the
last year and half prior to this trip, he contrasts WDW's Magic
Kingdom to DLP. It certainly makes for an interesting
report.

one-day with her Parents. The threesome spent the whole
time at Epcot enjoying the Millennium Village and the attractions
at the unique park.

- Comments: This is a fun to read report
on a relatively brief trip in mid-December. All of the
holiday-goings-on were on-going, and the Farmer troupe took
advantage of it all. The report is written in a play-by-play
fashion, but is just sufficiently detailed to keep just about
everyone happy.

- Comments: Tori and her family visited
the World just before Christmas. The trip included a stay
at Shades of Green (we've had a lot of those lately) and a long
drive from Oklahoma. The report is written in a daily
summary style with plenty of detail for those folks that are
into that kind of thing. One last thing, Tori's daughter
uses a wheelchair, so the report does cover issues regarding
access that may be helpful for some trip planners.

- Comments: This is a play-by-play style
report on a late December (just before Christmas) trip enjoyed
by Amy, her fiance', Jason, and Jason's mom and brother.
The report is fun to read, and it gives evidence that this pin
trading thing can be addicting. Beware :)

- Comments: Carol visited WDW in early
December to join up with several other folks at the annual RADP
(rec.arts.disney.parks) meet. She traveled solo this time,
but enjoyed meeting up with many folks from the newsgroup.
Carol also visited Islands of Adventure, so this report includes
a first-hand account of that relatively-new park.

- Comments: This is the documentation of
Sue's sixth trip of 1999. As usual, this is a wonderfully
detailed report covering just about everything that the group
did. Also, as usual, Sue summarizes the trip with a great
list of lessons-learned that we can all use to our own advantage.

- Comments: Joe visited WDW in early December
to join many others at the RADP (rec.arts.disney.parks) meet.
This is a VERY detailed report that covers the trip planning
process in detail, as well as providing a very detailed play-by-play
of the whole vacation. As it turns out, this is one of
the lengthiest reports on the site!

- Comments: Lowell and Lucy enjoyed a nine
day visit just after Thanksgiving and into early December.
They stayed offsite (more and more a rare aspect of trip reports
of late). The report is written in a daily summary style,
so it's not "too" detailed, but there's plenty to
learn here.

- Comments: Binnie and took her grandaughter
Alisha, and Beth brought her niece, Renee, along for a wonderful
trip to WDW during the 4th annual RADP meet events. This
is a great report, mostly told by memory, of a fun trip.
It's written in a summary style, so those of you that really
enjoy that type of report will love this one.

of a nice, long family trip that spanned ten days (including
travel). The report has plenty of detail including
a summary of expenses and some nice descriptions of the family's
meal experiences.
