Wow you had a crazy wait for the bus in the morning. I hope that isn't the norm. The food looked really good...sorry it didn't agree with Kristin's stomach but glad it was short lived. And wow...what amazing negotiation skills...I wish I could do that...never have the nerve. I can't believe how crowded the park looked...and here I thought March was bad...
June certainly is worse than May! Not more than we could handle, though.
Another great update. I'm really studying anything you write about the crowd levels and the weather. Crowds look big...weather looks nice. Was it super hot?
It got up to 97 one day, but it wasn't that humid most days, so it wasn't awful. We swam during most of the really hot times, though.
Kristin has some mad skills! She's awesome!
I agree!
I also found that 1/2 the time only 1 MB scanner was working....
Thats great that they let you have a free fastpass AND let you schedule a 4th. Amazing, A+ job Kristin.
She made a good case for it!
I am all caught up and enjoyed reading all of the updates!! I stayed at CBR once a few years ago. I enjoyed it but I didn't get to explore the whole resort as much as I wanted to. I love all of your pictures thought!! We have never stayed at Coronado but every time we drive by it, we always say we should stay there! I think a trip there may be in my near future!!
Do it!
We went to 50's PTC as well! We loved their fried chicken. I have never been to HDDR before, but I hear their food is awesome. If the chicken is anything like 50's, then we will enjoy it!!
It was very similar. Except at HDDR, it's unlimited.
I still think it is weird that they switched Aloha Isle and Sunshine Tree Terrace. It looks strange to me.
Not sure why they did it. Maybe to move the long line out of the main walk into Adventureland?
I can't wait to hear about the rest of your day and what you think about the mine train!
Coming soon!
Aw, Emily's note is TOO cute!
That's no good that Kristen started to feel sick, especially during the heat in June!!
Yeah, the heat doesn't help!
I'm glad that Disney worked with y'all on the fast passes for Splash. Funny story, when I was like 7 or 8 I was terrified of the big drop on Splash. I forced my dad to MAKE me ride it no matter how scared I was. When we reached the line and saw it was a 2+ hour wait, my dad tried to talk to me about skipping it but I refused. After standing in line for hours in the heat, I faced my fears! lol. Now we look back and think about how ridiculous it was to stand in line that long, and I could never imagine doing so again!!
It cured you of one fear, but gave you a different one
As always great update!!!!
Thanks!
could I borrow your wife the next time we go to disney? or at least have her on speed dial for any occasion when I might need to visit guest services? She seems to have the magic charm.
I'll have her PM you
Love the note Emily wrote. She should have left it. Perhaps they have different Mousekeepers in Aruba then they do in Trinidad South? Our kids animals were rearranged every day, and we never asked that they be. Both times we stayed there they did this.
I think it depends on the Mousekeeper. Anyway, if the DISboards rumor is true, there will be no more towel animals anywhere. What?
Um, where is that Haunted Mansion store? I have never seen it. Is it new? I need to stop there.
Across from Columbia Harbour House. Before HM, coming from Fantasyland. It's awesome, and a big upgrade from the merch cart from a few years back, and the "I'm sorry, there is no Haunted Mansion Merchandise" from before that.
Sorry Kristin wasn't feeling well and that you got there late and 7DMT was down. Glad you got a good ride on Splash!
It was a crazy day, but we tried to make the best of it!
Great TR so far Nilla. Not to inflate your ego but, your my first "Follow" ever on the Dis. Really getting me pumped up for our upcoming trip.
Nice! Thanks! The Ultraman avatar classes up this TR, anyway.
Ok, back to our story!
