BIG LOVE ?!? I love that show, is it new or repeats? I love morning glories too! Have a great day getting your "stuff" done!

We just finished the 3rd episode. We have been watching it from Netflix. We have very few shows that we both actually like to watch so it's nice to be able to find series that we both look forward to watching.

Enjoying your TR!! We arrived on Friday the 22nd also & we were in Epcot that night. We went to see the 5th Dimension & met up with another disser.

I also bought a plant outside of the Soarin ride. I bought one for me & also for my best friend. I did replant mine & so far so good. I followed the directions & I haven't killed it yet!! I do not remember the full name of the plant but it was the polka dotted something or other...

Can't wait for your next installment...Also a New Englander here (NH)!!!

 

[Lady Lallie]

I'd take that as a challenge.


Love the manatee pictures. I really need to spend much more time in that area to see the special areas. I had no idea.

That's the great thing about Disney, you are always finding new things to enjoy!

Woo Hoo! I am getting ready for the update!

Stacy

Coming up soon!

a bottle of vodka would also work nicely..

Heck yeah! Though...vodka doesn't sit well with me but another alcohol will work nicely.

Your manatee pictures are great! My DS and I have to make sure to see them in January, she really is an animal lover! And manatees are lovely creatures.

In 2007 I went on a tour at Homosassa Springs (on the guld coast, about 2 hr drive from WDW) where we went swimming with the manatees at dawn. It was absolutely wonderful!! Just freezing cold outside unfortunately, the water was warm!

They really are lovely creatures! I want to go on a tour like that really badly! Maybe on a future trip. It's hard for me to take myself away from Disney though when I'm in Florida.

I was debating between the one and I got and the polka dotted one! That one was really cute.

WOO HOO for a fellow New Englander!

Saturday May 23rd. Day 2, Part 3.

We left off in one of the Innovations buildings, we exited and it was sprinkling rain. It wasn't very heavy but a nuisance. We wanted to ride Spaceship Earth again so we headed towards the front of the park. We made our way and the line looked GINORMOUS. I have never seen a line like that for Spaceship Earth. Sure enough the wait time posted was 30 minutes. Jen and I decided to time it while we waited.

It was quite windy in line too. I also saw the classiest display ever...smoking in line. I wanted to yell at the lady, who was trying to hide it from the CMs. How rude! In fact this trip I saw more people outside of those designated smoking areas than ever before. Really annoying when you don't smoke. I wish I could have snapped a picture but I didn't have the guts.

After exactly 19 minutes we were in our Spaceship Earth vehicle. 30 minutes, to that I say PFFFFFFT. This being our second ride on SE we took our cameras and took pictures. Try to guess which ones I took.

What TR is complete without this stylish chick?

I believe we were stopped during this ride too but I think it was only once. Pretty soon our future was building!

So if you didn't get the gist of the future...apparently we will be able to upload our injuries to our doctors so they can heal us even if we do break our arm while skiing! We were cracking up over our little adventure. And if I do say so myself our ski attire is super cute!

We had gotten in our Vehicle at 11:40 (thank you Twitter Text) so we still had some time before our 1:50PM Le Cellier Lunch ADR. I think we were both a little stressed out because we wanted to make it to AK for Finding Nemo: The Musical around 3:30PM. I won't lie, I was getting a bit cranky and my feet really hurt. My blisters were giving me a lot of pain. I was hungry, cranky and tired. Not the best combination when you have a long day ahead of you still.

It's hard when you are traveling with someone, you don't want to disappoint them but you don't want to be miserable yourself either. I think Jen & I traveled together very well. I could tell her how I was feeling and she understood and it worked the same way in reverse.

Despite the crankiness I was feeling, there was no way I was missing our Le Cellier meal. This was the starting point for our trip together, the fact that Jen had never eaten at Le Cellier before. We had to come up with a game plan for the next 2 hours.

So we slowly made our way....

 

[Lady Lallie]

Double Post!

 

[Tnkrbelle565]

Oh no! The Le Cellier ADR is coming. I have a feeling something is going to go horribly wrong

 

[MinnieNurse]

Lets seeI am just going to give a wild guess. This is a hard one. I am going to say you took the pictures of the light fixtures.

Great update. I cant wait to do SE now thats its been re-done.

Is LeCellier next.

 

[2xcited2sleep]

Love the Spaceship Earth update. You're going to laugh (maybe) but I was thinking that maybe for a Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween costume I'd go as the stylish computer lab chick with the lab coat, plaid mini, yellow tights and patent leather boots. What do you think? I'm just not sure where to buy yellow tights.

Can't wait to hear about your upcoming Le Cellier lunch. I am really feeling badly about leaving LC out of my upcoming ADR planning. HOW can I call myself a DISer and not at least try to get a Le Cellier reservation?

 

[wdwgirl03]

Wow, smoking in line? That ranks right up there with the guy who was eating his popsicle in line for Tower of Terror and was STILL eating it when we were actually in the elevator getting ready to ride.

I think I had that outfit from the 70's, and my mom gave me a curly perm too, just not as big as her hair!
I'm not a smoker either and I wish that Disney would just ban smoking from the parks. What are they going to do, boycott? I say let them, plenty of people that would enjoy some clean air for a change!

Sorry about the rant.....

 

[princess&her4princes]

I can't believe that lady was smoking in line!!! That's just rude and inconsiderate!!!!

So sorry to hear your feet were giving you trouble, hope you made it to Le Celliar okay....trying to remember from your FB posts...hmmm....

 

[Charleston Princess]

Smoking in line??? That's chutzpah!!! And rude!!!

Glad you only stopped once!!! Love your future!!!

I hope your feet start to feel better soon!

 

[julezdisney]

I agree Anita! BAN THE SMOKERS DISNEY! BAN THE SMOKERS! In reality, all the people that would stay away, would be replaced by people who stay away BECAUSE of that.

Can't wait to read about Le Cellier, LL!

 

[MisplacedTraveler]

LL, I have spent all day reading your PTR and now your TR. I have to tell you that I am hooked and can't wait to read more.

 

[jordanyosh]

Yeah...smoking in line is disrespectful. You shoulda slapped it from her mouth Jackie Chan style Then done the Olivia Newton John from Grease foot stomp on the cigarette.

I'd sign a 'ban smoking' petition.
Write it up!

Thanks for the update, LL!
Everyone's updates help make our last five weeks so much happier!

 

[carissanboys]

My feet are hurting for you!! I sure hope your meal at Le Cellier helped you feel better.

 

[Flossbolna]

I agree with everyone else: smoking in line is unaceptable!

I really like the little films on Spaceship Earth! They are so silly! Hope you made it through the time until your ADR! Looking forward to hear about your meal

 

[Scrapbook Stacy]

Great update LL! Did you see a lot of photpass photogs out at Epcot? We have never done Spaceship Earth, I know this will sound dumb, but will you know when they are taking your photo? I really want to go on this with my kids.

Stacy

It is coming up. I still can't believe what I did.

Lets seeI am just going to give a wild guess. This is a hard one. I am going to say you took the pictures of the light fixtures.

I am sure it's surprising that I took the light fixture pictures.

That would be the best costume EVER. I bet a lot of people would catch onto it too! Hehehe.

Don't feel bad about leaving Le Cellier out of your plans, it is not going anywhere anytime soon!

Wow, smoking in line? That ranks right up there with the guy who was eating his popsicle in line for Tower of Terror and was STILL eating it when we were actually in the elevator getting ready to ride.

That is ridiculous, eating a Popsicle on a ride. There were A LOT of people complaining about not being able to bring food into line with them all over the parks. I though that was common sense...or at least pull it out of your bag after you get in line.

Sorry about the rant.....

I wish they would ban it too. It's annoying to be walking and then all of sudden SMOKE CLOUD.

I can't believe that lady was smoking in line!!! That's just rude and inconsiderate!!!!

So sorry to hear your feet were giving you trouble, hope you made it to Le Celliar okay....trying to remember from your FB posts...hmmm....

You will just have to wait until the next update! It was really rude of her to be smoking in line and I can't believe the CMs either didn't see or didn't say anything.
