[[IM BACK! *sniff* :(]] The "Lets Get My DBF Addicted to Disney World" PTR

[two*little*birds]

i think i heard theres a make your own light saber somewhere?! can anyone tell me about this?

I'd like to know more about this as well. Anyone?

 

[Vallie]

Your itinerary looks fab, im sure you'll love Seaworld its a gorgeous park i really enjoyed it there, im a huge fan of Dolphins too Have you ever done Discovery cove?
With the shopping I guess it depend son what type of things you like to buy? if you like some designer things? or like more of a bargin? i've heard the outlets are fantastic for getting good deals

thank you!! im pretty happy with it!! i have never been to discovery cove!! i wanted to go this trip but due to budget reasons we couldnt afford it so dbf suggested we do seaworld instead!

if the designer things are affordable i'd be interested in those, if not i'm always down for a bargain! i think i'll end up at the outlets

I'd like to know more about this as well. Anyone?

yess anyone?!

also i see your from durham region! so is my dbf!

 

[Vallie]

okay i just did a search and you can do the build your own light saber at Once Upon a Toy as well!

 

[DisneyFaeriePrincess]

Oh I didn't know you could build your own lightsaber at Once Upon a Toy, good for you, all of your make your owns in one spot! You can also make them at the store at the end of Star Tours. I actually did the build your own lightsaber. I like it! I did it when we went for Star Wars Weekend and had to stand in the awful long line but it's cool, you basically design the entire thing. You can pick what the handle looks like, if it's two sided with the light part (sorry not sure what that's called), the color it will be when it lights up, it's pretty neat. They also give you these little chip things and each one changes the sound it makes when you hit things. Your dbf would probably like that since he's into star wars. It's not too expensive either from what I remember. Sorry I can't remember how much it was but I def. remember not paying too much. Like maybe $20 or so, which isn't bad at WDW!!!

I just followed you over from my PTR and I love all your plans so far! You & your DBF are so cute together! I am looking forward to more.

Oh and btw, I have been on Dinosaur a bunch of times, and I have yet to see the entire ride because my eyes are closed shut and my head is buried in DF's chest. That ride is sooooooo scary. I vowed to DF that I would keep my eyes open this year, but he doesnt think it is possible!

welcomeee!! and thank u!!

haha I know i closed my eyes most of the time! and i'm determined to keep them open as well!!! i dont know if I will be able to, what scares me even more is the fact that we are going on Jurrassic Park at Universal this time around and I'm scared its gunna be a zillion times worse then dinosaur! haha

btw i saw in your PTR that you like scrapbooking! I'm actually working on a disney scrapbook before we go cuz I have the time now so look out for posts of that soooon! I think I may go read your TR now hehe
