SJC - Hotel receipt with San Jose, CA address

Does this have to be a receipt for a stay, or would a gift shop receipt work?

Can email a jpg of 3 nieces dressed in their PSG Norway Festival costumes.

Can also foward PDX Powell's newsletter if the electronic form will count. Could probably find one that predates the contest so they'd know you didn't just sign up online.

Apologies to Daydream: I responded to Missy's post in Dusseldorf & by accident, your user name was on the computer. Sorry.

I will be mailing the bus receipt (they don't give out receipts, but I got a transfer). Will mail out as soon as I have Missy's snail mail address.

Now that I have traveled in areas of Orlando I would never to have thought of going... what a cool thing to do... I have some questions regarding the MCO items. If you can reply by tomorrow morning, I can make sure all is what you need. (I am driving back to JAX after "pool time" with the daughter )

MCO - Photo of a Kissimmee sign

Does this have to be a bill board or can it be road signs? I have the latter but can get the former on the way home.

Coaster from Animal Kingdom Hotel
The name of the hotel is the Animal Kingdom Lodge. They don't have "coasters" because it is more economical and less wasteful to use bevnaps. They do have the logo on them. I had 3 managers make sure they didn't have any. (You should see how excited they were to find that they were on this list o'stuff for the hunt hehee)

Any souvenier marked DisneyWorld this could be a post card, right?

Please email me at [email protected]

Missy: I've got a Powell's postcard. If that won't work, I'm headed down this weekend for the FT PDX brewfest do, and I'll mail you a bookmark/newsletter on Sunday. Let me know.

I didn't read this until just now. If you still need the California Adventure stub and a disenyland hotel coaster let me know. Will a Lost Boys coaster due (bar at DLH)? I don't think they have any DLH regular coasters any longer but what do I know I just work there.

As long as it has the hotel name on it, it should be fine

This is a team effort in your office? You don't need no stinkin' team help. You are a one-(wo)man and stand out of my way kinda team! (with a little help from your friends)

I did go to the Cal. Adventure thing. I have been tearing up my office trying to find the stub, but can't find it. Would a picture of the California entrance (with a date stamp from this July) count?

For some reason I thought the end date was the beginning of next month. I just noticed the "due date". Dang you still have a whole month to get this stuff!

MapleLeaf - Thanks so much! Tell FlyerAl thanks too

Kahuna - Wingless is getting the Cali Adventure stub, so stop tearing up your office!

And yes, its a team effort. Some of us just have better connections than others
