What a beautiful view at WL!! I think that would be amazing to wake up to every morning!!
YAY for the park being empty
that is really good that you could take advantage of DHS that morning
I think your drawing is REALLY good and you should frame that!! I would be excited if I was able to draw that well
Isn't WL so amazing? I miss it soooo much!
I'm glad we changed our plans that morning, I love DHS!
Thanks! I can't draw at all, but we had such a good instructor, she made it seem like it was so easy!
Well we still have a few days, maybe we'll set something up when we get closer? I have multiple Disney window clings that might be making their way down with me for the trip. I got Winnie the Pooh ones at Walgreen's they had Princess ones too. And then different Winnie the Pooh and Mickey and friends ones at Dollar Tree. I have a dry erase board from my trip last year, which I want to decorate to go on the door. Even if it's a hi nice to meet ya while passing by so we can say we actually saw another DIS-er. I'm meeting up with another DIS-er hopefully Saturday night and Sunday during MVMCP and she's staying at Pop too and then over to the WL.
Ughhh, I can't find any Disney window clings yet! I found some gel ones at Walmart, so I bought package, but that's not enough...and I want to make a sign of some type! I need to find suction cups! I think I'm going to go on a mission later tonight to try to find them!
I will know a lot more about my plans after this Tuesday, so maybe once I finalize everything, we can set up a time to meet, it all depends on how my DH's orthopedic appt. goes! I know that sounds cryptic, but I'll let you guys know more on Tuesday!
Tower of Terror is totally my new favorite ride. It's so awesome! Besides the little hiccup with RNR, looks like a fun and successful morning at DHS.
Oh, and if TOT is my favorite ride, the drawing class is my favorite activity to do at Disney! I drew that Jiminy Cricket too once. I teach art to my grade 5s so I've been teaching them how to draw the characters I drew at Disney. So far we've done Pluto and Buzz Lightyear and they LOVE it! Some of them are amazing artists.
Isn't the Tower of Terror the BEST RIDE EVER??? OMG I love it so much!
We had a great time at DHS that morning, I always expect to get a headache from RnRC! I don't know where to put my head no to get one, sometimes I'm fine on that ride and I don't get bounced around at all, other times my head smashes against the side soooo bad...it's annoying!
Wow you sound like a fun teacher, I wish we learned to draw Disney characters in school! I loved the animation class, I'm definitely going to do it again!
Wow Jen - your JC is really, really good!
Nice job! You should frame it.
Oh that writer's stop - that cookie looks so darn good! Yum!
I can't wait to try Star Wars. I stink at TSM but we will definitely get FP's for it because Nicholas has never done it. His last trip was in summer and well, if you don't get to the park first thing in the morning, forget about getting a FP!
Nice pictures and fun morning. I get coaster headaches too.
Hate them!
Thanks! I want to frame it! Unfortunately, when I brought it home, I folded it, so it might look horrible in a frame now, but I'll try!
Star Tours is a lot of fun! I'm pretty awful at TSM too, my score is not good compared to people that are good at it, I'm just happy I seem to always beat Brandon!
I'm usually ok on roller coasters, but there's something about RnRC that makes me get a headache! I always say I'm going to skip it, but it's so much fun, I can't skip it!
I really really REALLY want to try one of the carrot cake cookies, they look awesome (especially for breakfast!
)!
It seems to be kind of random/when it's cold out when the umbrella isn't turned on. I definitely have had the water be on while the Osborne lights are up (in early January), but then in other times in December they've been off. I do love tricking my travel companions into standing closer to the umbrella while I hit the little square
.
You have to try a carrot cake cookie, they are amazing! You probably won't be able to finish it though, they are really filling!
I hope to see the umbrella when it's on someday! I assumed it was because of the lights, but who knows? Brandon looked really funny, jumping up and down on that square! It must be really funny to trick someone when it's on!
Okay, I just updated in my TR what went on on MY morning that day and it was WAY different than admiring the sun and the trees like you did!!
Sounds like a great morning. I especially like the WL balcony and am hoping to have the exact same view when we stay there in February. LOVE that resort!!
I read your update yesterday, wow, MK was crazy that morning! I can't believe you did a 5K and then went to MK, you have so much energy!
I don't need much sleep in WDW, but I do need a break in the afternoon, and I feel like if I ever did a 5K, the last thing I'd want to deal with would be crowds!
I miss the WL!! I miss Disney World! I hope you get a great view at WL, although I'm not really sure there are any bad ones, maybe the standard views aren't great, but other than that, pretty much anywhere is beautiful!
Wow, that view from WL is beautiful. I would've been out there every morning, probably forgetting to get ready for the parks in time.
I love going really slow in DHS and enjoying all the little details. Those palm trees with the sun behind them just scream, "Florida!"
I love that you got to draw Jiminy Cricket! I don't think I've heard of him being drawn much. Even as drawing impaired as I am, I would totally go through the experience to get Jiminy!
I understand what you mean about the head positioning on RNRC. Even though it's one of my favorite rides, I always fear getting a headache on it. Usually, when I hear Aerosmith start to scream, "3!...2!..." I try really hard to make sure my head is against the center of the headrest. It's like my que.
Isn't WL amazing? It's so pretty, I really loved hanging out on the balcony in the morning!
I love DHS so much, when I was younger, it was my favorite park. It's strange that a lot of people don't like it, I love the old Hollywood theme!
I didn't know they drew Jiminy either, so I was happy when we got to draw him, I was expecting Pooh or something! I wonder if they ever do Marie, she would be fun!
Haha, I do the same thing, I sit up straight and put my head back and brace myself, but it only seems to work about half the time! We went on it again later in the week and I was fine, my head didn't move at all! So who knows?
You can't really stay at AKL and not get a savanna view!
