***This report contains mostly pics of signs and photos around resorts till the 2nd to last day. It was a solo trip with a specific reason.**
Thought I would bring this over to here now.
So like I said this report will be mostly me going around the different resorts.
But you will get to meet some ip-dips along the way.
So 5 am the alarm goes off. http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/clock.gif
I jump into a http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/shower.gif
5:25 I am walking out the door. I say goodbye to Biff (he says I woke him up) oops.
So I go walk up to Amsterdam and hail a http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/untitled.jpg
We are off.
I arrive at LaGuardia and took me about 5 minutes or less to get through security. Now I wait for my flight.
I believe I had Dunkin Donuts for breakfast.
Then the plane comes in.

So we board and we are on time. Taken while sitting there to pull out of gate.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/IMG_0113.jpg
We leave and are third to take off.
We get airborn and I take a few pics.

We are soon descending into Florida.

We are in Florida. Want proof?
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/IMG_0118.jpg
I love the live map on Jetblue, I watched it all the way down.
And here we are just about to land.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/IMG_0119.jpg
I then go and catch the tram to the main terminal (bad pic)
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/IMG_0120.jpg
I then head to
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/IMG_0124.jpg
I get in line
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/IMG_0121.jpg
less than 5 minutes I am through it and getting in this line.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/IMG_0126.jpg
oh wait I am the only one here.
With that I will end this installment. Find out next how check in at POP goes and do I have to walk to OshKosh.

Day 1:
So as I got to the line like I said I was the only one. I got in line and 1 minute later I was told to go outside, I did, and got onto a bus that was practically full.
I sat down and the people in front of me must have been living large as they both had there seats pushed all the way back. Half way there the lady in front of me moved her seat up.
Now this bus was stopping at AKL, POP and CSR. Guess what, POP was first.
So now that I am first to be dropped off we arrive at POP. I make my way to the registration desk and guess what, no one is in line. I was so happy.
I got checked in and was told I would be in the 70's. Fine with me. So I got all my paperwork and left and walked outside to the busses.

I did not go in. So I pressed on.

I meant to go in here but did not.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162072.jpg
Now i came back to see another entrance.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162073_edited-1.jpg
I should have had one of these, I was hungry.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162076.jpg

I went to the newly opened T-Rex Cafe...
Ok so I go up to the podium and ask if I could be seated and how long? They say I can sit at the bar right away or wait 20 minutes for a table. I chose the table.
So I start looking around.
Looking up while waiting outside.

On the other side is the playground for kids to play in.

Sorry so dark. This is inside. When you look in u see the podium on the left, then there is a little stand behind it. all the way over to the left is the bar area. Straight ahead is the animatronics (sp?) of a T-rex and 2 little ones.
Then on the right side is the gift shop and there is also a "Build-a-Dino" workshop.
Here is the t-rex when u walk in. It goes often and roars.

After that I left.
**REVIEW**
I checked in and the ticket said 20 minutes. 45 minutes later I got seated but I had to go up to the podium and ask what the hold up was.
*First you walk by the bar area. It is fantastic looking.
*Next room is the sea area. Fish tank in the middle, giant jellyfish hanging. really cool.
*Next is the forest or jungle room. This is the room I ate in. The ceiling looks like moss hanging. It was a cool place.
*Ice room is next to this and the ice changes colors. It was really fun to watch.
*next room is the asteroid room. I only saw this room at a quick glance. Someone else ate here :whistle: maybe they can describe it better.
*Food*
I got a cheeseburger. It comes with pasta salad or potato chips. You can substitute for $1.99 waffle fries which is what i did.
I asked for the burger to be well done but it was more medium well. It did not matter, this burger was one of the best I have had.
Topped with shredded lettuce, tomoto(none for me), onion, pickles(not for me) and on top of that an onion ring. Incredible is the only thing to describe it.
*Drink*
I decided to have the cotton candy appletini and decided to get the souvenir shaker for $12.99
They put the cotton candy in the glass and then pour the drink over it. I was sitting there wondering how I was going to eat the cotton candy but it fully dissolves. One of the best drinks I have ever had. It was very strong too.
Here is the souvenir shaker you get.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162118.jpg
*Price*
$31.64
Overall I really enjoyed it. The waiting was not necessary and if you wait longer than your ticket then go to the podium and ask.
It is pricey and a little noisy. It was my first meal eating alone down there and I really enjoyed it.
Up next....
More DTD

One nite we walked the whole DtD area. We found a little Ferry behind the House of Blues that takes you back to the Market Place. You should see how pretty this picture is from out on the water.

Great Downtown Disney photos! I just :love: Downtown Disney and I felt like I was there myself.
TRex looks so cool. I really want to go there now, but I don't know if I'll be able to fit it in on my May trip. The Cotton Candy Martini sounds like something I would definitely want to order!

So now I get off the boat at Marketplace and jump right on the boat for Old Key West.
Along the way I saw the progress they are making on the treehouse villas.

Then I made it.

http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162236.jpg
I ate here many years ago.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162241.jpg
booze it up.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162242.jpg
I got a soda here.

I still have the mickey keychain from here and use it everyday that I got 8 years ago. I no longer have the ashtray.

http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162254.jpg
Then I took the bus around the resort to see it all. Then i jumped off at the front. I went back to.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162256.jpg
Heading to Saratoga I saw the treehouses again.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162257.jpg
I love these boats, I think the rides are so relaxing.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162261.jpg
Now I should have jumped off here, but I did not.

http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162274.jpg
I got in line here but it was so slow. So no drink for me.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162275.jpg
This looks like fun for little kids.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162276.jpg
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162277.jpg
So now I go out front and walk over to Saratoga Springs.

http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162279.jpg
Some time around here I got a text from Buzz saying they were at the pool. I found out which pool and went searching. This place is HUGE.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162282.jpg
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162283.jpg
So I finally found them at the pool. I asked housekeeping while walking and they had clue. :rotf: We chatted for about 15 minutes and they are such great people. The kids were wonderful. I was so happy to finally have met them.
They had to go get ready for dinner and I was heading back to POP to relax.
Taken from the bridge in SSR.

http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162288.jpg
I took pics of the restaurants and I cannot find them.
So I am now back at
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162294.jpg
Took some more pics around the resort.

http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162305.jpg
This was outside my building.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162306.jpg
I forgot to mention when I left T-Rex I called for my room.
I liked the bedding. very cute.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162307.jpg
My room was 0203 in building 10. This is located next to the main building. My room was 3 doors away from the big wheel.
I think it was around 5 or 5:30 and the next thing I know it is 8:30. I fell asleep.
I went to POP Everything and decided I will just have a counter service for dinner.
I got
Cheesesteak Wrap with french fries
frozen coke
tye-dye cheesecake
The cheesesteak was really good, just a little greasy.
I got addicted to the frozen cokes.
The cheesecake I was so excited to have but I was disappointed. the dye got all over my mouth and teeth. It was NASTY.
Then I decided to walk around the resort.

http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip-dip/PA162146.jpgWe were suppose to eat here, but we cancelled. Really expensive.
Is the cranes still up by the Tree House's. We got to see a crane, set a tree house on the plat-form. They are refurbishing and making new one's.
Glad you found the Ferry, anytime you can save yourself from walking is worth it.
Great pictures again.

I am thinking of Raglan Rd for our last night but not sure. We are on deluxe plan so it is all credits. Just cannot decide.
I saw no cranes.
The ferry was a nice little ride.
Subbing, great pics so far.
thank you.
This is going to move along quickly as I am leaving Saturday morning so I need to finish by then.

Day 2: Part I
I had Stitch wake me up around 7:30. Got up and shaved and took my shower. I will say now that they put me in a wheelchair accessible room. I did not like the shower.
Anyway, I then was on my way to Kona for breakfast. I have wanted to eat breakfast here for awhile so I said why not. I had a 9:40 reservation so I set off my way. I do not think the wait for the bus was very long.
Soon I arrived at the Magic Kingdom.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%202/PA172391.jpg
I got there just as they were doing the opening ceremony, I stopped off the bus and heard "Zippity Doo Dah". I love that song.
Wish I was going here but I was not.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%202/PA172392.jpg
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%202/PA172393.jpg
Off to the monorail.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%202/PA172394.jpg
Here we go.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%202/PA172398.jpg
I make it to the Polynesian.

http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%202/PA172405.jpg
I arrived around 9:05 so my timing was way off.
9:10 I checked in.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%202/PA172406.jpg
I was going to grab a cup of coffee here but decided to wait.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%202/PA172407.jpg
MMM, I love this place, or do I?
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%202/PA172408.jpg
I would say within 5 minutes I was seated. I was seated right when you walk in to the left. If you walked down the main middle aisle you would have passed me.
There 4 people sitting next to me and 2 on the other side. At first I felt weird but that soon left me. By this day I was loving being solo, not so much the first day but now I loved it.
I ordered a cup of coffee, oj and the big kahuna.
I got a carafe of coffee (which I finished) thank you. I meant to ask for the juice you can get at O'Hana but forgot.
The big kahuna I was not impressed by. The pancakes were really good but everything else was just ok.
If I go back for breakfast I will try the tonga toast. I prefer this place for dinner.
Up next... touring the deluxe resorts.

I love your pics. You should try and convince Biff to try the Spirit of Aloha, we had a lot of fun at it. The Grand Floridian bought back memories. I was lucky enough to stay there once and it was so nice. Looking forward to more and pics from your upcoming trip.

Now I am off to the Wilderness Lodge. I saw this place quickly in January with the kids but wanted to walk around.

I turned to look at the pool.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%203/PA172733.jpg
And look at what happened.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%203/PA172735.jpg
first time I got to see it.
Then I walked.

http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%203/PA172758.jpg
Now this is also where I saw a nice older couple who were lost. They were staying in the DVC section and just could not figure out how to get there (I think they were very close) so a CM who was rushing off to somewhere stopped and they asked her and she told them, nope no clue. She then took the time to walk them to the building. I thought it was sweet.

I would think the rooms here looking over the pool would be so noisy. Am I wrong?

I think I took these from the overlook.

http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%203/PA172800.jpg
I walked in here to eat but my goodness they were so slow. I left. Now children skip this next paragraph. I go into the bathroom to do my stuff and there is a urinal so I use it and go wash my hands. I look in the mirror; there is a teenage in there entertaining himself in the stall. If u get what I mean. I guess he had no privacy upstairs but I mean really close the door. I don't think Walt meant this as "feel the magic".
So I left there and went towards the boats.

Hi,
Thank you for reading or looking. :lmao:
I planned on one park only on this four day trip and the rest I went out to the resorts. I only missed the All-Stars and Shades of Green.

Wow, you got TONS of awesome resort photos.
Seeing your Grand Floridian pics brought back memories of my wedding day. Our wedding wasn't at the GF (it was at the Boardwalk) but we did get some of our wedding photos taken there. It's such a beautiful hotel. I also loved seeing your Poly photos... it is definitely my MOST favorite resort.
I've never been to Ft. Wilderness, but it looks really cool. I need to make a trip there sometime. And I am dying to stay at WL, it is so pretty.
Well, enough rambling. ;) Great photos! :thumbsup2

Barbecue lifts my spirit

And the sauce mama makes just stays there forever
If you dare to get it under your nails
Well you maybe poor with a wolf at your door
But money isn't everything
You still got your song and a river full of fun
And you'll always have a song to sing
Anyone know what that is from? Ok back to report.
I know where it's from but I didnt poke a hole in mamas washtub to learn it ;)

I should mention this was the only time it rained. Very light sprinkle.

I never went inside.
We are eating here in December.

Like I said it was a goal of mine for a specific reason. I was not even going to try for Shades of Green. I was not sure if I could even get there.
It is great seeing all the different resorts.

I love this pool.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%205/PA172987.jpg
Love these tables.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%205/PA172991.jpg
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%205/PA172992_edited-1.jpg
Now I go and sit and wait for Dude(Camelcots), HHBG(her hubby), Carrie and Steeb. Dude and HHBG get there but Carrie and Steeb are waiting on a boat.
Ressie is for 7:25 so I tell them that we are waiting for 2 others to arrive and she said no problem just let them know when they all get there.
7:40 they arrive. Husky voice and all. LOL Carrie was sick and had lost some of her voice.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%205/PA172993.jpg
Then I go get a buzzer and we chat for a few and then, BZZZZZZZ
The buzzer.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%205/PA172994.jpg
We are escorted to our table. It took a long time for the waiter to come by. First the manager or someone came by and asked if anyone came to our table and then when he did he seemed so put off.
So drinks were ordered, as were appetizers. I ate the bread, which was really good.
Cannot remember what we all had but Carrie and me had the scallops. I thought they were really good.
Carrie and Steeb
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%205/PA172995.jpg
Dude and HHBG
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%205/PA172996.jpg
The menu
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%205/PA172997.jpg
The restaurant, kind of.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%205/PA172999.jpg
Guess who had a glowtini :whistle: not me.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%205/PA173000.jpg
Then we had dessert. I had the caramel cheesecake or something like that. It was good but small.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%205/PA173003_edited-1.jpg
We were there for 2+ hours and we chatted the entire time. I do not think anyone of us was not talking.
It was a great time. I had met Dude months before at a NYC meet and it was great to meet her hubby.
Carrie and Steeb it was great to meet them too.
Every one of them was so nice and so easy to talk to. They took the correct way home I went cheap. They all took cabs. I decided to go to the MK bus and take that.
HOOBOY what a mistake that was. While I waited I saw some ugly, nasty people just complaining about everything. It took at least 45 minutes to get on a bus. I was supposed to meet Mrsksomeday and MrK right Now and there friend Amy at POP for a drink but they stayed to watch the last Spectro.
I got back to the room and 2 minutes later I got a text from Tracy, they r getting off the bus. So I jump up and run up to POP Everything and walk to the front door and they r just coming in.
Tracy and I chat and chat and chat and Bill and Amy look around the store. (Sorry Bill and Amy).
Then I walk with them to there rooms. There was quite a surprise for them when they got there. I will let Tracy tell you. She was not to happy.
I then left them and walked around the resort. It is really peaceful and night. Went back to room and set alarm.
Coming up..

Let IP-DIP FEST 2008 BEGIN.
I set my alarm and Stitch woke me up again. Such a reliable little alien. Took my shower, got dressed and went to the food court for breakfast. Had a western omelet, potatoes and OJ. Delicious.
Made my way to the bus. Did not wait too long. The location for Ip-Dip was.

http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%206/PA183007.jpg
I was the first to arrive and soon after Dude and HHBG arrived. Followed by Carrie and Steeb. Then I believe Jodi and her family and then Buzz and Linnie and the kids.
We all stood around saying our hellos. I made each a key chain for the meet and handed them out.
I gave the kids each a toy.
Dude made LA a gorgeous dress.
I will let everyone tell what he or she gave because I really do not remember.
Here we are.

So first ride was

http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%206/PA183025.jpg
Once in the room they opened the door before the movie ended. Nice bonus. I rode with Carrie and Steeb and Linnie and son. I had the hardest time getting the seatbelt to go in.
The ride was fun as usual. I did not redneck the photo but I think Carrie did.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%206/PA183029.jpg
Now Dude and HHBG went to MS while we rode TT. I think.
So now we walked and the next ride was.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%206/PA183030.jpg
The kids playing in the fountain. LOL Now Linnie, me and Steeb went on Mission Space green side. It was a lot of fun. I believe it was Linnie’s first time.
Mine, Mine, Mine
Next up was to Find Nemo

We then go over to Soarin’. Jodi’s husband went to get us FP’s for it while we rode TT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!
So we got there and waited a few minutes for him to come back. Then it was time to soar.
See the FP line

I asked if we could have the front. “How many” I was asked.
“13”.
“Only 11 in a row”. Dude and HHBG sat in the 2nd row. Thanks guys. If you have flip flops or crocs on you have to take them off. I wasn’t crazy about that but ok.
What a ride. It is so magical I love it. And the smells, I love that the most.
Walking out.

Now we just sat around and talked a few minutes. This is where we were splitting up till dinner.
I went with Carrie, Steeb, Dude and HHBG to the Food and Wine Fest.

So off we go to the Food and Wine festival.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183069.jpg
First stop Poland.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183070.jpg
I skipped here; Dude and HHBG had something to eat.
Then we looked at the other booths while we waited.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183071.jpg
I believe I also went to use the bathroom here.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183072.jpg
Now here I tried something, all I ever hear about is the soup from Canada. Well I had to get me some and try it.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183073.jpg
This soup was fantastic.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183075.jpg
Here they are eating their food.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183078.jpg

http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183083.jpg
Took note of the times for later.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183084.jpg
This smelled so GOOOODDDDD…..
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183085.jpg
I think Dude and HHBG stopped here.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183086.jpg
Steeb went here.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183087.jpg
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183088.jpg
I looked here.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183089.jpg
See Carrie smiling away in the back there. She loves her street shows.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183090.jpg
They were funny to watch.
Then I found Dude and HHBG sitting on a bench but it got too sunny for HHBG so they moved to the shady bench by Rose & Crown.
Then Carrie got Fish & Chips. We proceeded to walk.
It was not busy.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183092.jpg
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183093.jpg
Yep, this is where Carrie went.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183094.jpg

This is the food & wine kiosk for France, I decided I needed something else in France.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183099.jpg
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183100.jpg
While in line I feel a hand come down on my shoulder. I jumped a little, I thought it was Steeb or HHBG coming to get their ladies a drink, nope it Buzz. They had finished up what they wanted to do and were heading back to the hotel to swim. Told them I would see them later.
Now what did I get. Well….
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183101.jpg
A Grey Goose Slushy of course. My first one ever and it was so good. That sucker was gone quickly.
I cannot wait to eat here in December.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183103_edited-1.jpg
Now we came to the American Kiosks I guess. This one was Louisiana. Dude got in line. I believe Steeb did to. I went looking around.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183104.jpg
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183105.jpg
I walked back here and got myself some beads. (Don’t judge me for flashing; I wanted to be on Jerry). :rotf:
No performers then.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183107.jpg
We walked some more
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183108.jpg
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183109.jpg
I wanted a pic of Carrie with the ball so she posed for me. Thank you Carrie.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183110.jpg
It came out dark but as you can see we saw Jasmine and Aladdin. I was hoping for the Genie but nope.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183111_edited-1.jpg
We then continued on.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183113.jpg
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183114.jpg

http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183120.jpg
I love the train sets.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183121.jpg
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%207/PA183122.jpg
Now I believe this where we all stopped and Dude and HHBG were going to go to ESPN to watch some ball. Carrie and Steeb decided to stay in Epcot so I had someone to hang with. I was prepared to wander for a few hours on my own but was happy I did not have to.
Time to stop….
Up next..
More looking at the countries and then off to Future World.

Hey Scott!
Great to see the pics again. I'll have to post the photopass pics from our ride on Test Track. Carrie sent me the CD last week. We've got them from both cars.
We had such a great time with everyone that day! Can't wait until we can do it again!

Now it is just Carrie, me and Steeb. We start walking.

We go into Maelstrom.

http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%208/PA183131.jpg
Sorry so dark. I actually had fun on this.
Now we hit
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%208/PA183132.jpg
I realize I am down to my last $20 ($200 goes fast in 2 ½ days). :sad: so while in line Steeb orders me a drink. I say “no”, he says “I just met you today, let me buy you a drink”. I busted out laughing. It just struck me as funny. So THANK YOU AGAIN STEEB.
Then we drank and walked towards Future World.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%208/PA183133.jpg
Then we found a bench and sat and drank.
That is when the fountain show began.

So we stood up and walked towards our destination
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%208/PA183138.jpg
As we are walking there I see Amy (Disney Virgin) on "Enchanted". We say hello and ask where Tracy and Bill are. They were at Electric Umbrella eating.
Ok let’s ride.

Here is what they emailed me to me. I will post it at the end of this update.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%208/PA183175.jpg
I have Carrie’s also but do not want to ruin her tr.
After this Carrie and Steeb went into Innoventions, she wanted to try to build a robot.
I went to
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%208/PA183178.jpg
They raised the price of the ice cream sandwich to $4.99 and it is no longer a snack credit. :sad: not sure if they did the same thing at MK. I had a vanilla shake.
Then I went in to find them, did not see them so walked over to the other one and Steeb found me.
Carrie and I went in here
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%208/PA183179.jpg
It smelled and the line was not moving. We left.

**Review**
I was a little hesitant about this place but surprisingly I enjoyed it. The food was very good; the pretzel bread was to die for. The salad with the herb dressing was so fantastic I had 2 helpings. I think the only thing I did not like was the pot roast. I would definitely go back again.
We proceeded outside and started making our way.

Right before the show I believe is when the wine was spilled onto Buzz’s shirt and he had to go buy an expensive t-shirt. You can see in one pic he changed, but really would not have been Ip-Dip if Buzz did not spill some wine. :rotf:
Now it is time for Illuminations. Not the best spot for it as there were a tree there but who cares we are with friends.
No more words, just pics.

With that it was over.
We now stood around and chatted as everyone else was leaving the park.

So everyone started leaving. Soon it was Buzz, Linnie, Tracy, Bill, Amy and myself. I think it was 9:45 and we split up.
I walked out with Tracy and company. I think I used the facilities and Amy had a ciggie.
Then I took this as we were going out
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/scottny/ip%20dip%2010/PA183399.jpg
We then went to the bus stop, which had one waiting and we soon on out way to POP.
Once at POP Amy took off and Tracy, Bill and I went into POP Everything.
I think this is when Tracy bought a yellow Mickey head key chain to represent the boards. Good girl. :rotf:
We chatted and then we said our goodbyes.
Ip-Dip review:
This was the best day I have had in a long time. Meeting everyone was fantastic. It was fun from the morning all the way through the evening.
Dinner was great; drinks were good (thank you Steeb and Buzz).
I am so glad I decided to go. I was hesitant with money and another trip so close but I am so glad I did it and just wanted to thank you all so much for a wonderful day.
Up next…
My last day, but I saw some resorts.

Sorry to be rushing this and getting so many pics on one page but I need to finish by tomorrow because I leave Saturday to go again.
My last day. I have until 2:45 for the DME.
I wake up early and shower. Finish packing and bring everything to the front. I put my bag into the luggage check (I love this service) and then I go check my coat with the luggage check that u can pick up.
I am then off, I arrive at Ak and then I am off to

I will say this area smelled like animals. I would not have been happy if I was staying here.
The Mara checkout. Now I went to eat breakfast. I had the adult platter. The eggs were a little runny for me but it was good.

I do like the bus queue at POP

I totally agree with being able to take pictures all day at Animal Kingdom Lodge. I love the Zawadi Marketplace! And all the animals everywhere. And the awesome details!
Thanks for a million great pictures! I'm so glad you are headed back for more!
I've got to go back and look at all the pictures again. We got a snow day today, so I have time to catch up and absorb it all slowly.

I like the lodge a lot.
I am finishing up the final updates right now.
Tonight I will start a new thread for my new trip. I think.
all we have had is rain.
It is hard to transfer, over on enchanted it is a 50 pic limit, here is 25 so I have to divide up the posts. But I did it.

I never did have a drink here.

Then I went in to look around or use the bathroom.

So I now had 1 ½ to kill and so I got a soda and plopped myself on a chair outside and just people watched. I also had a friend stop by.

Going home and final thoughts.

Time to go home.
I took this one day and emailed it to MeMom from the Disboards. She loves POP.

Made my out to the luggage hold to get my jacket.

I got the front seat on the way to the airport.

I decided to walk around. I went into.

I also had a carvelanche from Carvel. It was Reese’s and very good.
Then I made my way to the gate.

Plane loaded on time and we left on time. Now is where I was annoyed, my TV did not work for ¾ of the trip home. I like watching the live map but could only do it from Washington D.C. on.
Night was coming.

Brooklyn, Staten island or Queens? I have no idea but I think it was Brooklyn.

We landed and were in half hour early. :woohoo:
Went to get my luggage (one of the last ones off) and then went home.
Final thoughts:
At first I was hesitant about it because of money but I am so happy I went.
1) Jetblue – this was my first time flying them and it was really a great experience. I am flying them again in December and hope I will have the same experience.
2) Pop Century – I have decided I am not a value type person. The resort I liked with the pop icons all over the place but it was so noisy with so many kids just running around with no parents telling them otherwise. I never experienced that at Riverside. I did like the food court but I do like having a sit down restaurant if I decide to go have that. The room was nice. It did not seem too small. Bus service from resort. This was not so good some times. Actually waiting 45 minutes or so at MK was ridiculous. I know all resorts have their problems with buses but that night every other resort was leaving 2 or 3 buses before one bus came for us. Other than that the buses were not bad. I do like the queue at POP. Keeps people from jumping in front of you on line. The frozen coke was really good. So will I stay here again probably not. I like the look and feel of the moderates or deluxes.
3) Going solo – the first day I was a little sad to be alone and seeing all the other people with someone else to share the happiness of the place. When I woke up on Saturday I was so over it. I loved being alone. I would definitely go on another solo trip.
4) Resort hopping- this was so much fun. I got to see most of the resorts. I think I missed the All-Stars and Shades of Green and Coronado Springs (for a reason I skipped it). If you have the time to resort hop do it I highly recommend it.
5) Ip-Dip meet. This was the reason for the trip and it just flew by. I had so much fun. All of you I met are wonderful, funny people. It was so easy to talk to you all and just feel at ease.
6) Ip Dip II - next meet should be a new park and a new restaurant. I think every year we should get together and try something new.
So I would definitely do a solo trip again. I absolutely loved meeting everyone. With that this tr is over.
THANK YOU ALL FOR READING.

I can't wait to show Brooklynn all of your pictures next weekend.
She'll point to them and say, "My Pop!" "My Ammel Cammo!" "My Ha-ee-wood!"
She's going to love all the pictures!
I'm so glad you got to spend the time resort hopping. They are all so cool in their own ways. If (big IF) my friend and I do get to go in March, we may just get a two day ticket, to make it more affordable, and then spend a day resort hopping and a day at DTD. I'm not sure I want to renew my AP until summer, because I'd like to get two summer trips, a fall or winter trip, and maybe a spring 2010 trip out of it. I enjoy just walking around the resorts, seeing the decor, eating the food, taking pictures.
Anyway, great job with the pictures. Now, get packed up, put on your stocking cap, and get down there and get us some good Christmas ones!

Wow that is a lot of trips. I wish. Biff is insisting on Europe next year. London and Paris but I might throw in Euro Disney.
Thanks I have to start getting ready.
Talk to you when I return.

I'm a little late to finding your TR but really loved it. I'm planning my first solo trip for December and one of my goals is to check out all of the resorts. I really loved all your beautiful pictures.
