on the Hurricane Hanna's lunch - doesn't sound very magical.
Am glad you had beautiful weather and you sure seem to be having luck with getting empty transport!
Love Jacob's pics of MK and looking forward to seeing more and hearing about how you handled the heavy crowds
No, tired, hungry, & having to stand around waiting was not good.
I couldn't believe we had the bus to ourselves!
Thanks, he has a lot more photos. Some days we did good in avoiding crowds! Other days -
The park looked PACKED! Also, lucky you on having the MK bus to yourselves. We normally have to stand.
I received a new Canon SLR for Christmas and I can't wait to use it at Disney!!!
I can't wait to hear more.....
It was so crowded that night, it looks more crowded in the next update! Thats why we waited to go to the park. I set low goals for this night! We just wanted to go to MK.
It was really cool to have the bus to ourselves, that would be the only time though. We did do some standing though a few times.
Congrats on the new camera! I think the newer ones are a little lighter. I'm not sure how old mine is, I've had it a few years, but not sure how long my Dad had it before that.
Subscribing! It is so nice to read TRs with older kiddos! Love what I've read so far!
Thanks! They still have so much fun at Disney, they both really enjoyed themselves! Jacob is still talking about going back.
Yay! I'm so glad you started your trip report!
It really is so crazy that in 3 years, Hannah and Jacob have changed so much! It didn't seem like that long ago. I guess it isn't that weird though considering 3 years ago during my trip, Howard and I were not dating at that time.
Awww, I'm sorry to hear that Hannah was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. I hope you all were able to adjust and plan while still enjoying your vacation. From your morning situation at the airport and on the plane though, it sounds like Hannah's being very responsible! It really is surprising to see how some kids can handle these things so well. I have a 6th grade student who's severely allergic to a ton of things. She knows what she can and cannot eat and to immediately move away from other students who may be eating something that can trigger a reaction. I'm really amazed that at such a young age, these things can be handled. I don't think I would have had the maturity at 12 and 13.
I love the pic of the two of them looking out the window. What a moment to capture!
Does Hannah have to carry her supplies with her at all times now?
I wish I had a DSLR to use on trips like this, but then I realize that like you, I'd probably leave it packed away because it's just so darn heavy! I do get to sometimes use Howard's, so that's the benefit there! It works out that he's willing to lug that thing around and I ALWAYS have a point and shoot with me. I'm silly, but I think that is just one of the MANY reasons why we work well together, hehe.
I'm really looking forward to reading more!
Hi Rachel!
I can't believe how fast they grow! Three years ago I was taller than Jacob! I remember when you & Howard started dating!
Hannah has taken everything well. We had some issues on the trip & after, it was tough timing because she was still adjusting to the insulin. She has finally settled down the last couple of weeks. She has 3 set of supplies - one set to carry with her, one with the school nurse & one at home. Sometimes she forgets to bring them if we go out quick.
I wanted to use the dslr, but I just didn't want to carry it! It always seems like I have enought to carry. That's great that Howard has one, works out better that way!
