INTRODUCTION
Hello! You may or may not know me from my wife MarieLightning's (still unfinished) trip report "Fine! We can go to Disney, but I'm not happy about it!" or the two pre-trip reports she's started. One for our upcoming May 2014 trip How soon is too soon to start planning?" "About right now." or the pre-trip report for this trip Something Worth Celebrating.
But if you haven't read anything that's A-okay! I'll get on with the introductions here.
Who: Amber (me) and my lovely wife.
When: October 18th through the 28th (leaving on the 29th)
Where: Disney's All-Star Music with quick service dining
Why: To celebrate me finishing chemo!
Additional information: We were taking part in the MyMagic+ but did pull regular fast passes on occasion. Given our upcoming trip in May, we purchased annual passes. And we did purchase tickets to MNSSHP.
I'll get a little more in depth with the who now.
First, is me. As I've stated, my name is Amber and I'm 20 years old. I was diagnosed with Non-Hogkins Type B Lymphoma on Memorial Day and I almost lost my life 3 times over the next week. Luckily, I'm still here and kicking. I've finished my chemo treatments and I might have to do some radiation, but I'll find that out later. During this trip we rented a wheelchair because I'm still not in the best of shape and we also brought a walker which was helpful when I wanted to walk and during the last day.
Now, some Disney facts!
Favorite Park: Epcot
Favorite Rides: Winnie the Pooh, Star Tours, Toy Story Midway Mania, The Haunted Mansion and The Peoplemover.
Favorite Disney movies: Beauty and the Beast, Cars 1 & 2, Wreck-it Ralph, and Tangled
Favorite Snack: Cinnamon and sugar pretzels!
Nighttime Shows in Order of Preference: Illuminations, Fantasmic, Wishes
This is my beautiful wife of a year and a half or so. Her name is Marie(-Christiane) and she's 24. She took a lot of the brunt this trip by pushing me around in my wheelchair and helping me make sure to keep on top of my meds and the like. Basically, she's awesome.
Favorite Disney Park: Likes them all but especially Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios
Favorite Rides: Toy Story Midway Mania, Mickey's Philharmagic, Star Tours, and Soarin'
Favorite Disney Movies: Princess and the Frog, Brave, Beauty and the Beast, Wreck-It Ralph, and Toy Story 3
Favorite Snack: Canadian Dream (American Dream minus the blue slush, double red slush)
Nighttime Shows in Order of Preference: Wishes, Fantasmic, Illuminations
