Great update! I love the writers stop, it's such a nice place to relax and enjoy a little quiet time. I must try one of those carrot cake cookies the next time I go -- can you believe I have never had one?

You are probably getting ready for the airport right now, safe travels and we can't wait to read more when you get back!

Caught up! Wow, Em is a great colorer! you are just never too old. Especially when it's coloring princesses. Also, wow Brian, that is not tracing. So gorgeous!! Meeting the head cheese!! I have to every time. I love sorcerer mickey. As always, you guys are adorable!

First time riding toy story in 2 years?! Wow. I don't think I could do that.

Yay for relaxing afternoons in disney! Those really are good times to just take it slow and take it all in. Especially at the writer's stop. That place is so cute.

I keep forgetting to try that carrot cake cookie. It looks scrumptious!

Have a safe and fantastic trip!

Brenda..yet another great update! You are absolutely right about those quiet moments seem to be the most special. I have some wonderful memories traveling with my Mom, and the things I remember most are our laughs on the way to the airport that continue to be private jokes with us that still give us the giggles. I cherish those memories with my Mom, and enjoy making more. In fact we have a little weekend trip planned next weekend to Asheville, NC to go to the Biltmore Estates (I live about 2 hours from there). I'm looking forward to it!!! It will just be me and my Mom which is very rare for us since I'm a Mommy now!

Hope you enjoy your trip and safe travels!

Great update! I love touring DHS on empty afternoons. It's really the best way to do it! And luckily it seems like we happen upon it on a really slow day at least once every trip.

Hope you have a fantastic Christmas trip! I can't wait for that TR too.

Sorry I didn't get here yesterday. Have a magical 10 days. Can't wait to read about them.
Great update. I don't know how you do it. Putting in an update so close to leaving. I would have been sleeping or trying to.

You are so right - sometimes its the simple things that make the best memories.

Coloring is so relaxing! She looked so content sitting there with the kidlets.

Brenda just read the first 50 pages... The Bills game is out of hand at least your report is enjoyable...

Oops! We were tag teaming updates/edits!

Thanks! You would not be disappointed if you booked that! I'm sad that my next trip doesn't include a stay there again. Sigh.



Ha ha! I'm pathetically slow, that's for sure. I am trying to simultaneously keep my dining review going as well.

I'm glad you know what the bend and snap is!! I thought I may have to insert a reference to the movie but then if I did it wouldn't matter since they wouldn't know anyway!

December will be mostly Dismeets because of a group of us that are going for some fun together. I'm fortunate to pick up a few more Dismeets from folks outside the dining boards as well. We're definitely blessed to be able to do this.

I hope you're having a wonderful time!! Can't wait to hear about the rest of this trip and the one you're on now!

 

[TMGosizk]

Hi Brenda!!

Just wanted to pop by and say I hope you're having an amazing trip to the World and having an awesome time with so many Dismeets!!!

 

[DisNorth]

Hope you are having a great trip!!!

 

[Miss Potts]

Hi Brenda! Haven't commented in soooo long but I just got all caught up! (I hate when life cuts into dis time!)
Too much to comment on specifically so I'll just let you know I've enjoyed all the updates!
Hope you are having a fabulous time on your trip now... Gets me thinking, I REALLY need to plan a holiday trip.

 

[KatMark]

I love that Em sat down and colored with the kids. I enjoy coloring myself.

Great pictures at the Writers Shop and throught the Studios (those clouds didn't look so good though).

I'm so glad we got a few minutes together before Mark and I headed to the airport on Sunday. Thanks again for the goodie bag and, more importantly, the hug and friendship.

 

[livsmom04]

Finally all caught up! Love how you and Em went to the book store inside HS! And my classes are going well. This is the last week of the fall semester. Have a wonderful trip!!!

What a lovely update! Sometimes those moments in Disney that are the best are those that don't translate well into a trip report! Lol.

Sounds lovely! And a carrot cake cookie is always a good thing!! Wasn't my favorite treat, but I'd have it again!

So glad that you guys are off having a blast in Disney right now!! So awesome that we got to meet up and I can't wait to hear all about everything!

I said I would do one more update and gosh darn it even if I only get 4 hours sleep before we leave I'm updating!!!​

Wed. August 21, 2013: Day 6, Part 4 ​

It was at this point in the day that I felt fully justified in moseying over to the Writer’s Stop for one of those legendary carrot cake cookies. Plus it kept us in the a/c and out of trouble. It was un-crowded in the little shop so it was no problem getting a small bistro table to relax and enjoy browsing the books. Added bonus was the wonderful smell of coffee!!

I remember that afternoon with no lines, no rides, no characters, and no crowds as one of my favorite times of the entire trip. It was so wonderfully relaxing but better still was spending time with my baby. As I wrote in my notes and recall now, sometimes it’s the simple moments of shared laughter and a few tears that create the most memorable of times.

That's all for the next 10 days since we leave in exactly 5 hours and 45 minutes. I'll be posting some photos and such on Facebook so any FB pals can have a preview of what is to come.

​

What - they have books at the Writer's Stop, too? This is the first I've heard about books. It has always been the goodies that make the trip reports.

DH and I had a very relaxed trip last week. It was the first time in all the years of going to WDW that we stopped to watch the shows and other events that happened as we walked by them, and skipped all but a few rides. We caught the castle show for the first time ever and DH wondered when they started having that show. I told him it had been there forever, he just never wanted to see it. That fp+ for TSMM was golden. But all in all, we went on maybe 8 rides, and it was wonderful. The biggest development was that DH really does like having an ADR after all, instead of always being "spontaneous."

I hope you had a great trip.
