  Hey, I am going to be on the Wild Western which I believe to be an extension of your tour.
  
  I am travelling with two of my friends. Two of us are from Melbourne and one from Sydney in Australia.
  
  Where are you guys from?

  Hi, my husband & I will be doing this tour.
  Surely there are others going on this trip?! Where is everyone?! :-)
  Just over 10 weeks to go! I can’t wait!
  We are arriving in LA a few days earlier so we can do Disneyland and Universal etc, then after the tour we are staying an additional day / night in San Francisco and will then fly over to New York for a few days before heading home.
  Hope to see others posting on here soon!

  Hey, if I am correct about you being on the same tour as the Wild Western, except you simply finish a few days earlier, check out the Wild Western thread that departs on the 15th. There is a couple of us there.

  Hey, its great to see others on here! Its really not that long to go now. I’m so excited! :-)
  I didn’t realise the tours got combined.. thats cool. So do we all start in LA, but just finish in different locations?
  
  Dongirl, we have a very similar itinerary! We arrive in LA on the night of the 11th, so we’ll probably see you at Anaheim! We’re only staying in San Fran for 1 night though, then catching the red eye flight across to NY on 25th, then flying home on 29th Oct.
  Have you booked your accomodation for San Fran and NY yet? You’re seeing Madonna?! How cool! Where is that?

  Hey,
  
  I don’t know if you guys have looked at the other thread, but we are planning a pre tour catch up in Anaheim at the Stovall’s Inn. That’s where the pre tour accommodation is.
  
  As there is no bar at the hotel, we are more than likely heading to the Lost Bar in Down Town. Feel free to join us. I will let you know what time we are meeting in the Lobby if you like.
