From Fantasyland to the Fantasy: We came, we saw, we kicked it's AFT! UPDATED 1/10! - Page 7 - The DIS Discussion Forums

I'm joining in!

My family just stayed at OKW last week for the first time, too! It was a nice, quiet resort. I also loved that they were always playing Jimmy Buffet music.

Sounds like y'all were off to a great start at MK that day!

Looking forward to hearing about the cruise. We have our 2nd Disney cruise booked - June 1st, Eastern Caribbean on the Fantasy. Very interested to hear what kind of excursions y'all did - especially with your youngest daughter. Our son will be 5 when we sail.

I have been on TTA with the SM lights on, too- like, 100 years ago! It IS really cool to see it, huh?! So where were they stuck on the ride? Or did you say and I missed that?

Very proud of my little girlfriend being so brave on all those rides!

Better luck next visit on SM.

We were stuck on the entry track. You know, right before take off. The people in the rocket in front and behind us were asking if they could get off and they were told they couldn't until they got the all clear to resume the ride. We sat there for about 25 minutes, but I can think of many worse places to be stuck....(work, walmart or ikea)

It's a Small World for any longer than 5 minutes. We were stuck in there for about 10-15min one time. As much as the song drove me nuts in there, I have it on my Zune and listen to it from time to time.

I was not a fan of the gin martini (gin and I are not friends), but loved the others. When we stayed for trivia, we had the bartenders make 2 of the ones they showed us in class. I had planned on going back to the room to take a little siesta after that, but noooooo, I ended up taking the kids to the show instead!

I agree, Ron - there are much worse places to be stuck for 25 minutes...especially WORK!

Can't wait to read more.... (hint hint, Jen!)

Yay! I'm really looking forward to this cruise. We did just a 3 night cruise on the Dream last year to see if we would like it or not. Those quick 3 nights made us fall in love with Disney cruising. So excited to do a longer cruise!
