Well, Helen wrote to me the other day asking where in the US I lived. (Helen and I figured out we live 14,500 miles away from each other.)
Helen wrote that she and her family were considering a trip to Disneyland and wondered if I were close by so we could visit. As you can see from the photo above, I don't live anywhere near either Disney park.
However, if Helen is going to travel 11,500 miles to visit the US, I am more than willing to travel 3,000 miles to meet her. We don't know if this is going to happen, because the timing of the trip is a big factor, but I hope we can pull it off.
Like I said, you never know what can happen if you step out of your comfort zone and try something new.
**OKAY! I screwed up. Disneyland is in California and Walt Disney World is in Florida. I made the little labels wrong. My son lives in LA so traveling across the US to meet my friend in California is not a bad deal since I get to visit my son at the same time. And seriously folks, if Helen and her family are willing to travel 11,000 miles to California, I am not going to ask them to travel any farther to Florida.

I'm sure you're probably aware, but you have Disneyland in FL and Walt Disney World in CA, and it's the other way around. Either place, a long way from you, but a lot closer than Australia.
Hilda, Yeah, I made the labels the wrong way around. Oops.
Wow! How exciting just thinking of the possibilities Lynne. Why don't you go to Disney World in FL and meet her there? It looks a lot closer than CA (I live in So. Cal).
You inspire me to think outside my comfort zone too. :-)))
I really do hope you can work out the logistics. I suspect there are more special air fare deals to Orlando v. LA . . . but then it is a longer trip for Helen and family. BUT aren't there other special people in CA you'd like to visit?!?!?
Hang on - I know this is a quilty friendship, but wouldn't Helen also wanna meet Millie? After travelling all that way just to go on a rollercoaster, I don't think another 3000 miles to meet a cat is too much to ask. LOL

A wonderful plan..I hope you are able to meet Helen in CA..meeting a long distance friend in person is always interesting.
I'm in San Diego, Lynne! Bring Flat Milly!
