I have a pretty good idea of how you were feeling at this point. It is always exciting to pull into the resort. It never gets old. And as long as you had to wait since your last trip, you had every right to be out of your mind crazy excited.
We're going back to WDW next week. Brooklynn, Bella, and I will be staying at Boardwalk with friends on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Then Jill, John, and Sophie come down Saturday, and we'll check in at Pop. Suitcases have been opened here, and things are being tossed in. I'll organize this weekend. It's definitely getting real now. Since I was sick and in the hospital during the Christmas trip, it will have been since last June since I enjoyed Disney property. I'll be playing it cool on the outside, but doing the Tigger bounce on the inside.
That's so cool! I wonder if we ended up in the same parks sometimes. Are you doing a TR for that trip? I'd love to read!
I was but after doing 2 days I stopped because I don't think anyone was reading or they got bored by my ptr.

I might continue but I'm not sure
Resort arrival! You know, I have to say, I thought I was going to explode when I had to stay away from the world for a year; I couldn't imagine the emotions you were going through after an even longer time away.
AoA is amazing. The detail work all throughout the resort are just spectacular. I've stayed at Pop and visited AoA, and I just wanted to book a room there immediately.
Okay, don't stone me, but I have to confess, my brother in-law is a Mears bus driver. I don't remember him telling me he drove a ME bus over the summer (he usually lets me know since he knows I'm a disney nut.). His territory is charters, mostly, but if it was him I apologize if he wasn't the best
I have never taken a bus to Disney before, so I'm not familiar on the differences between a Mears and ME "motor coach" but I can understand the disappointment when you're expectations aren't met. Not to mention, what a bummer about missing the welcome gates.
Those three pictures are great! I can see why they made it to the Instagram page. I was thinking to myself that they looked like the perfect advertisement or something. Really captured the excitement and fun that comes with being at Disney.
Great update!! Arrival day is so exciting! I haven't stayed at AoA yet, but it's definitely on my list. I love all of the pictures I see of it!
Love arriving at the hotel.
Sorry about the MEARS bus...but your are still int he right place.
Love the fun photos with the characters
Now you are on a bus (ahem) Motor Coach to where??? I think I have a guess...
First stop even before getting in the room....my guess
Magic Kingdom!!!! (maybe a bee line to Haunted Mansion??)
YOU'VE ARRIVED!
I'm sorry yall didn't get an actual Magical Express bus, but hey, you were on your way to the wonderful world of Disney and that's all that matters! I love that you're including videos in each update, too.
YAY for Art of Animation! It's such a pretty resort! LOVE the picture of you in front of Ariel!
PS; I just added you on Instagram & Twitter!
