GOING THE WRONG WAY
You might wonder why a Disney fan who lives about 9-10 hours from WDW would
drive 10 hours the other way to go to a
place where a bunch of Disneyfans were meeting. The answer is fairly
simple as two-part answers go
2. I couldn't really afford a trip to Disney (at least not if I'm going to Mousefest in December which I am).
As an added bonus I was also able to fit in some time with a fellow post card collector Tom De Luca, who lives in New Jersey, and who has taught me quite a bit over the past few years about the variations found on WDW post cards. So you see I wasn't really going the wrong way.
MERRILY ON OUR WAY
I got up about 4:30 am Thursday (as I was spending Friday with my postcard collecting friend in NJ) and was loaded up and on the road by 6am. It's a fairly simple drive from Charlotte most of the trip was up I-85 until it ends at I-95 then up I-95. I had made several CD's of Disney related podcasts and those helped pass the time on the trip.
In Maryland (exit 41 I think)I took a break for lunch, \ on the way back to the interstate I saw something that caught my eye, a moving truck with Mickey on it, looks like these folks moved the Mickey statues.
Heres a link to their site:

and to their Mickey press release;

Ok so my license plate is not quite accurate here... though perhaps I'm going there in spirit if not in geographic reality. I made it to my destination in NJ by 4:30 PM so now we'll skip ahead to the meet in Allentown.
