About the tour. Could anyone explain the wisdom of having all the cities on the west coast with dates in Jan and Feb '09, but the rest of the country not until Sept and Oct of '09?

The rest of the country is actually in the Fall of '08. The tour is from this fall through next February.

I personally didn't get to the Minneapolis celebration, but my family brought home balloons!!! They're so fabulous!

The team gave out balloons during our local Thursday Farmer's Market and everyone was really excited.

The only problem is I can't get my special code to work on the website because I've already been entering without a code. I still love my balloon though!

Drop another coin in slot and I will tell you more.

Do you have a second email address? Try a different email address to re-register and see if you can get that line with the birthday code.

That makes sense, but when I looked it up last week All the Sept and Oct dates did say /09 so someone had made a big mistake. I do notice now that they have all been changed to /08.

What Facebook group?
Sorry, I don't know why I missed this before :oops: .

It was "Disney World Addicts". I think it's the biggest WDW facebook group.
Thanks. No worries. :D I'm always happy in incorporate Disney on facebook more. I'm already a member of the "I'd rather be in Walt Disney World" group. (Best title ever.)

Cool pictures - I can't wait until they are in Atlanta!! I hope they walk around Downtown Atlanta and give balloons to my peers at GSU. It would be really cool to walk into the lounge at the School of Music and see a bunch of those balloons :D

The Pittsburgh tour was really unfair! They listed it at South Side Works mall at 4pm yet they gave away all the balloons during the day in Downtown Pittsburgh! Mickey and Goofy were there too but not at the 4pm Celebration! I am so glad that I didn't make the hour drive to get there for 4pm!

We were going to try to make the Pittsburgh visit, too, but our kids had school commitments that we couldn't get away from.

I was just watching the Travel channel and I saw a commercial for this promotion. they had the Mickey head balloons floating to people in varouis places (school, office, ball park, etc) with birthday cards attached while the voice over mentioned that it's starting in January. they had the "What will you celebrate" slogan at the end
