Ugh, I swear one of these days I'll learn to reply to a multiple quote!

I just learned yesterday! Instead of hitting the quote button, hit the " one for each of the posts you want to quote. Then hit the reply and they will all be there. You can then go in and type comments under each one if you want to. Very handy dandy little trick!

Once we get over the awe of Cinderella's castle...ok, once my DMIL and I get over the awe of the castle ....HEY it IS beautiful, and changes colors We decide to find our way to Crystal Palace first to check out the line....and BOY was it LONGGGG. We were hoping to get in early, but that was NOT happening, so we explore some areas around the restaurant. Just walking around, looking at the map, plotting what we will try to get in after dinner. We do head back to CP about 9 pm or shortly thereafter and only have to wait a few minutes after letting them know our party was there. Once inside.....BEAUTIFUL!

I have to say, the animals and the settings were gorgeous!! Not to mention you trek through the land with a hysterical busdriver! We were on the lookout for poachers!!

Nice shot!!

Trees that grow upsidedown!!

Look, PUMBAA!!!!

sorry this one is so dark, but the stripes are beautiful!!

Thats it for tonight....but tomorrow....which way to see DeVine??? More Animal Kingdome picaroonies

Great update. I love the pilowcase. It's so cute. It looks like you had a great time. You got some great animal pics on the safari. I especially love the gorilla one. I hope you get to see Devine.

I am loving reading your report and your pictures are adorable.
I am so laughing at the ones withTigger and Randale it looks as if Tigger is signing the autograph book on his head and the one with both of them laughing(yes if you look close enough it seems as if Tigger is laughing along with him)

Your boys are so cute I love their shirts and pillow cases. I don't know how you kept it a secret I would never have been able to do it.

The picture of your son and you is just so precious.

LOVING your trip report .. I can't wait to go!!!

Okay .. I am checking out your autograph books (I am currently working on mine) .. is that purple binding????? Where did you have them bound????

 

[hmcfall711]

I am lovin' every word. CP is my DH's favorite table service. We go for breakfast every trip. He says it is because he loves the food. (Bacon & eggs can't we get that most places?) I say it is because he is guarenteed to see Eeoyore. He usually lets me have my picture made with the characters and may even joins me occasionally. BUT if it is Eeyore or Baloo he jumps right in and hands me the camera .
Last time we were at AK and walked right by Baloo he said didn't you want to get a picture? Before I know it we are in line and soon after we are next in line. The CM said Ok your next. It was like the starting gun at the horse races . . . "And he's OFF leaving Heather 3 funlongs behind."
I can't wait to hear more.
