| The
MiceChat Gumball Rally is going to Walt Disney World October 18th,
2008!
Many have said that they had never had so much fun in the parks
before. Others can't wait to compete each year. This time around,
we challenge you to ride a set of attractions in all four parks
at WDW in just one day! It promises to be a fun and unique way
to visit the parks - all of them.
Since our first event at Disneyland over two years ago, this
has been your biggest request "Bring the Rally to Disney
World," so we are! Whether this is your first visit to WDW
or your hundredth, this event was designed for you to have a great
time: Gumball
Rally Information.

Looking
for a Gumball Rally partner?
Want to play the WDW Gumball Rally but don't have a partner?
It seems like the hardest part of this event isn't winning,
but finding the right people to play with. Join in on
this thread and find others who are looking for the right
team member to conquer WDW! |
The WDW Gumball Rally is right around the corner and so is the
Sip and Nibble Around the World Event at EPCOT. The Muppets are
returning to T.V. for Christmas and we have a lovely trip report
from Busch Gardens Tampa. It's MiceChat time folks - Fishbulb
