She didn't do it on purpose, but of course she's a WDW nut too! Remember who we're talking about here! :roll: :lol:

It isn't tourists in general. It's the tourists who have no clue what they are doing or where they are going (cutting 3 lanes of traffic on I-4 to make an exit when they could just use the next one that is closer to their destination and a lot less traffic to deal with). Most of the people here at subsonic are veterans at being tourists. You know what you are doing. Heck, look at all the planning that went into Len and Mark's trip!!!
We are all a little weird
And life's a little weird,
And when we find someone whose
Weirdness is compatible with ours,
We join up with them and fall in
Mutual weirdness and call it Love.”

Kidding? I saw Len's spreadsheet! He could go on the lecture tour teaching people how to prepare for a WDW trip. Hey, Len, ever thought of writing a guide book?

That was not the only one. There was another that had all the confirmations on it for the flights, rental car, and ADR's. It was perfectly organized and served a great purpose for the trip. I have honestly thought about either teaching people how to do Walt Disney World or becoming a travel agent that will only book Walt Disney World. I am always brushing up my knowledge to keep up to date with the latest things and reading up on Walt Disney World to learn the stories behind everything.

You could definitely do it Len! You are super organized. Now if you and Mouseoholic started a Disney travel site ~ watch out! You would have a gajillion hits the first week :D

That's probably true! Judging by what I've read, Len is just like Mouseoholic. She has notebooks full of planning stuff. Her spreadsheets for each trip make my head spin, and she even uses twitter and all kinds of other stuff to keep up on the latest stuff. She has at least three different research websites that I know of for just ride times and crowd levels alone! Put those two together and I doubt anything would be overlooked. :mrgreen:

Mouseoholic needs an iPhone. They have free apps for park maps, WDW weather, park hours, and much more. We definitely are two of a kind!

Yep! Last time we were there she used hers to tweet ride times. By the time we left she had like over a hundred people following her on twitter, including a couple of prominent Disney bloggers. It was pretty cool. She definitely uses her iphone to the fullest possible extent for Disney stuff. She's eagerly awaiting BleuLlama's new app too. Me... I use my iphone for making phone calls, setting appointments and reminders, using the calculator, using the flashlight app, sometimes taking pictures, but not much else. Don't have time for much of anythig else. :(
