Yeah what can I say we can't let our readers down
Glad to see that you all survived and are doing well!
Hope to see you in WDW next week!!
No you CAN'T! And as bittersweet as the occasion is, it seems like a great way for you and your mom to stay connected.
Congratulations on your graduation!!!
Thank you!
I was way far behind, but I'm glad I got caught up before you leave for your trip.
"I almost blacked out" I love reactions to Mission Space! When my 9 year old son and husband rode the orange version, Ben had a huge smile on his face when we met up.
"I puked! 3 times"
Yeah Andrew can be pretty silly!
That is an awesome picture of the two of you at EPCOT. And great Muppet shirts- but you didn't even go to HS that day! Love Animal and his band Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mahem!
Yeah I am pretty sure we were supposed to go to DHS on Sunday then our plans changed once Andrew joined us Don't worry though this next TR will be filled with Disney clothing being worn at the appropriate park
I am sorry you were feeling so bad that you fell asleep on the safari. And that you had a rough night at the Beach Club. Thanks for sharing the beautiful pictures of the resort. What a great view of the pool!
It was a beautiful view!
Great pictures from minigolfing- we haven't done this so I loved seeing the pictures. And hearing the story about the demise of your mom's camera on a past trip.
Fantastic trip report!!! Loved the pictures and descriptions, but so sad to read about all of the drama. Some real ups and downs on the trip, and some very scary stuff!!! Glad to hear everyone is doing well now, though!
And I can't wait to read about the new trip.
HAVE A FANTASTIC TIME!!!
So we are excited for these special things along with seeing New Fantasyland for the first time, eating at BOG and staying at the Art of Animation.
We will have 8 day tickets so we will be at the parks everyday and (fingers crossed) having the time of our lives
I hope you'll all join us on the next TR which I hope will be drama free!
Thanks for reading
Woo Hoo! Saturday will be here before you know it! And I know you are going to have a wonderful time! Enjoy! I love the name for your next TR!
Thanks for sharing your trip, it was great following along with you. Looking forward to your new report.
Glad Caitlin Started to feel better finally but sorry it was the last day.
Thank you. We were glad she was able to enjoy one day anyway.
The Fantasia Mini Golf looks fun! We haven't done that one before, we did the Winter/Summerland one twice but none of the other ones.
As a family we enjoy mini golf so Disney mini golf is even better. We prefer Winter/Summerland but Fantasia was within walking distance so that made up our minds for us
Congrats on your Graduation, Caitlin!!
So Glad you are writing a TR for your next trip! Can't wait to hear all about it. It's coming up so soon!!
Mom tried to do an update earlier but lost it on accident
Before I get down to business though I wanted to share some good news with you all! I graduated on Sunday!!! After five years at EMU I now have my Bachelor's in Communications!
Here is a mini tour of the Club Level area:
The cutest lamp ever!
The bathroom. We are very thorough with our trip reporting
Our view
Now our straight ahead view
After everything we set we headed to return our rental car to the Dolphin hotel. We had turned it in and then right when we were about to walk away I realized I had left the camera in the car
Mom ruined our old digital camera here on my high school graduation trip Her ball ended up in the water and we told her not to go after it but of course she did just to prove Dad and I wrong. Well she got the ball but when she came back up from grabbing it the camera fell out of her sweater pocket
Today I was feeling so good I was actually standing and walking from hole to hole!
Love the xylophone steps!
My favorite hole!Who doesn't like wine!?
The buckets actually dumped water!
When the round was over we all assumed grandpa, the avid golfer, would win. Nope Mom did!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We decided Beaches and Cream would be the best place for lunch followed by lounging at the pool.
For dessert I had the kids ice cream sundae with nonfat frozen vanilla yogurt
That my friends is the end of the pictures.
Overall it was an alright vacation.
It was fun introducing Andrew to Disney and having Grandpa see the new things that had been added since his last trip.
Of course getting married was the highlight!
This next trip will be the make up trip and boy will it be amazing! You probably want to hear what our plans our right? Well Mom will have to tell ya
It was certainly a unique trip with some magical moments and some downright scary but it was certainly one we'll never forget!
Especially since we gained a new family member along the way
As you may remember I really didn't plan to do a TR after our upcoming (2 DAYS!! ) but when Caitlin heard about all the "Limited Time Magic" during our trip she said we had to do one. Who am I to argue?
Well our first day is "Star Wars Day". Yep, we will be there for May the 4th which is supposed to include SW characters, special fireworks. etc. Caitlin is geeked!
Our last day just happens to be Merida's Coronation Day! They are having this in the MK and all the princesses will be there along with some Disney Channel stars. This is the first time they've held this at the MK so we are super excited!
We will have 8 day tickets so we will be at the parks everyday and (fingers crossed) having the time of our lives
I hope you'll all join us on the next TR which I hope will be drama free!
Thanks for reading
Thank you for reading!Gotta get this in before you guys run off again!
On the one hand... too bad that your mom lost her update.
But on the other hand, I'm glad she lost it by accident and not on purpose?
"I'll show you! You think I won't do it? I'll just push the Delete key! Oh, yeah? Watch this! <click>....... Oh, no! What have I done?!?!?"
I hope she didn't do it on purpose!!!
Congratulations! Getting a degree is a wonderful accomplishment and you have every right to be proud of it.
Thank you!
Oh, look. Just the world's prettiest graduate. Ho hum.
Aw you are makin me blush!
Nice. I had no idea. I envisioned some cookies or maybe muffins if you were really lucky.
Nope they keep you well fed!
I must disagree. This is the best lamp ever:
Maybe best but Mickey wins cutest!
You'd be surprised how many TRs I've seen with tours of the bathroom.
Nice!
Oh.
So you had to lean precariously over the balcony railing risking life and limb for the good view then?
Yep!
Good thing you realized it before it was too late.
It was a good thing I remembered! I would have been in a ton of trouble!
Yeah, but she showed you!
Yeah she did!
Yay!
Just out of curiosity, do they play a tune when the ball goes down? Or just a scale?
Just a scale
Me! That's who! I live with three girls and sometimes all three of them get going and it gets to be a bit much.
Oh! Wine!
Sorry, I thought you said "whine".
Nobody likes whine!
I'm surprised. I would've thought you would've waited a long time just to catch that picture.
I'll let Minnie know that she is persona non grata.
She'll be heart broken, but don't worry, I'm sure she'll get over it... eventually
Minnie is too high maintenance!
Way to go Dawn!
Still doesn't make up for the busted camera, though.
Nothing will lol
I so want to go there!
Some day... some day...
Yeah, that's what I would order too.
No, wait. I'm gonna change my order to the Kitchen Sink
But almost the same.
Lol yeah I am healthy
And thanks for them!
But not uneventful! Holy Cow!
It was nuts!
I forgot, how long had it been since his last trip?
At least 15 years
Are you sure? It wasn't that first view of MK Castle? Sure?
jk :rotfl
Someways that is my favorite part...lol
Thanks for the chapter Caitlin!
Way to go Dawn!
Still doesn't make up for the busted camera, though.
One of those moments my family will never let me live down. You'd think after 6 years that story would have gotten old
No kidding!
You mean me, right? I'm officially adopted?
No?
How about, Mascot?
Still no?
ah well....
Of course we'd adopt you or make you our mascot
Right. She's got a degree, you know. Better listen.
Me too! Take lots of pictures, okay?
Oh, brother. Look who I'm asking!
No need to worry about a lack of pictures
Cool!
Yup. You gotta do a TR now.
Yep and it will keep us busy until Disneyland
I'll be there! Thanks Dawn!
Have a great (drama free) trip guys!
Of course we'd adopt you or make you our mascot
