    Just Hold On, We're Going Home...All 11 of Us Are Going to Mickeystoontown's Home! Update 10/27

    Me too. Planning a trip is part of the fun for me! Yup, part of the planning fun -- mapping out different options. I love having options. That way, nothing is set in stone, and you can kind of go with the flow, but still know what's available and going on. We like the Robertsons, and...

    Disney dangled the visual weinee & Mickeystoontown gobbled it up! 10/26

    I'm still here! I just don't seem to make it to the DIS more than a couple days a week lately. I LOVE Disney's fireworks and parades. And you got some nice pictures of both - even with heads and arms. Departure day is a sad day, true. But it is still SOOOOO good to sleep in your own bed...

    Canadian Buffoon's Disney With a Teen Vacation - 08/13 - The Wrap

    Well, I haven't been on the DIS for a little while - life just got busy. And here you are -- 17 pages into a new trip report! I'm loving it so far, even with the very late night and the heat. At least you chose wisely, and did not go for the section with the South American teams -- scary!

    1 year, 10 months and 16 days from today - A May 2016 PTR FINAL UPDATE 5/6/16

    May 2015 Trip - Day 5 Tuesday, May 26, 2015 We got up and around this morning, and decided to go to Little Switzerland. We stopped off for gas before heading up the mountian. $35.00 for 13.5 gallons at $2.59 per gallon. The road up to Little Switzerland was very narrow and twisty. Come to...

    May 2015 Trip - Day 4 Monday, May 25, 2015 OK, so I’ve neglected this pre-trip report (and mini trip report) for far too long. I’m gonna go ahead and finish off the Mini Trip Report portion… We got up at 6:30. DD got up and dressed and went down to the lobby to see everyone. I got showered...

    How wonderful about Lacey and Jesse moving to Louisiana! Glad to hear that Mama's medical tests went well, but sorry that's the car's tests weren't as good. Don't worry - I'm sticking' with ya!

    1 year, 10 months and 16 days from today - A May 2016 PTR FINAL UPDATE 5/6/16

    I love keeping my trip notes - I reread them a lot! It lets me relive trips, and helps me plan other trips. All of the locations were movie scene filming locations. If I remember.... we did: 1. Stop light scene. Trans Am burned rubber leaving the light, with the rig following it. 2...

    Sunday, May 24, 2015 We got up and around at about 6:30. By 7:30, DD was literally hopping, wanting us to get to the lobby – we were all to meet there at 8:00 to start the movie location tour. I had a donut (leftover from yesterday) for breakfast, and I think DH might have had one also… DD...

    Keepin' it on the downlow(country) at HHI - New TR link - pg 31

    I'm finally caught up again, just in time to catch the tail-end of your report. Sounds like a lovely last day, though. A very relaxing vacation, over all.

    1 year, 10 months and 16 days from today - A May 2016 PTR FINAL UPDATE 5/6/16

    Christmas and vacation. Only times DD is up in the morning, by her choice. Usually, it takes a lot of pushing to wake her up in the morning. Not on this trip! She does, actually. She has several. I never knew there was a difference from one harmonica to another, but she has some in...

    May 2015 trip – Day 2 We got up and around, and left the hotel room at 7:35. Here’s DD up and ready – in the MORNING!!! This is unusual for her. She’s usually up at the crack of noon. We packed up the van again and drove down to the main building for breakfast. It was nothing fancy –...

    She did remember it. I believe she enjoyed the stop. Welcome!! We love the Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg area. There is a LOT to do in that area, and it's beautiful.

    Canadian Buffoon's Solo Disney Vacation - Update 07/08! pp99 - Here today gone tomorrow

    I was woefully behind, but have now caught up again. Your dive experience sounded amazing! Lots of fun, and you got to spread a little pixie dust too. My guesses this time around -- Magic Kingdom, 7 Dwarfs Mine Train and Cinderella's Castle for a meal. How's that for a guess?

    1 year, 10 months and 16 days from today - A May 2016 PTR FINAL UPDATE 5/6/16

    I like to do a PTR just to get ideas out there. It's really a planning tool for me. I don't think I've EVER taken a trip where things went the way of the PTR... I know, right? She was just a wee bit excited... It still looks very much like it did in the past. Although it used to be on a...

    May 2015 trip – Day 1 Hey – I’m back! It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything, but we are back from our family vacation and I thought I’d do a bit of a trip report on that. Our plans changed from my pre-trip notes here. Of course. It always happens that way. I love planning a trip...
