Eh. I'm not really the murder type. It's the whole being afraid of blood thing.
I was just gonna keep nagging you every few hours until the plans went up.
Oh, good. Nagging I'm okay with. Murder, not so much.
I totally get the face character fear. It's a lot easier when you don't have to see their faces and have whole conversations with them. But you're a princess, and princesses have a lot of responisbilities that aren't always fun.
I do have fun with them! Long as it's brief fun, and they do all the talking.
I'm excited for the TR so that I can read all about your princess interactions. Since, y'know, I'll be doing Princess Meal Mania a month later, I want to know what I'm getting myself into!
I'm sure it'll be fine! Having Debby & Mark there will just make me feel less awkward because their attention won't be solely on me. You'll have Beth! We'll both be okay, and safe from the scary princesses!
Hmm ... I don't have motion sickness, but I do have height problems (and not just because I'm short). It always freaks me out a bit when it turns around and you realize you're at the top and about to go down backwards, but after a few seconds I'm fine. But again, different issue, so I don't know if the reaction will be the same.
I do hope she'll be okay. It is a very gentle descent, and I'll make her ride with me so I can warn her when it's time.
Yeah, this might erase the good niece points you're getting for going on IASW. Just saying.
HAHA. Aunt Debby's not a big soda drinker, and that's who I'll have earned the good niece points with on IASW. The Beverly mischief will be more on Uncle Mark. So my points
should hold.
I like that name! Because you're picking the oyster, the pearl is just the prize inside the Cracker Jack box.
Exactly!!!
See, I would have just gone for the Olaf cupcake. But I'm also not a turkey fan.
(And its a moot point because I can't have any of it).
I only got the Olaf cupcake that day because he came with the turkey leg, using a CS credit on the Dining Plan. Score!
Aww, last view of Osborne Lights ... sad. I'm still sad that I'll never get to see them all lit up (last trip I left the day they started).
That is a shame!!!
Definietly much deserved - you guys have some super busy (but awesomely fun) sounding days planned!
We sure do! I hope they can keep up with the pace I'll be setting!
The plans look great (I wouldn't expect anything less)!! As far as your question about motion sickness in SE. It's not so much the backwards part that gets me oozy, but it's the lights/stars above in the one section. I usually just close my eyes at that part. I never used to have any motion sickness issues, but experienced my first problem last year when I went on EE with my husband (the backwards part about killed me). I really hate this because that was definitely one of my favorites, but just not worth that yucky feeling that could interfere with the rest of the day.
Great advice! I'm going to have her sit with me so I can warn it's coming, and let her know in advance that if she starts to feel funny, to close her eyes. Thanks, girl!
(And there's noooooooooo way she's going on EE, I already know that one's waaaaaaay too much for her!)
My birthday my birthday! And your doing things I loooveee! Ok this ain't about me! Day looks fab! And I love princesses!
YAY! HAPPY BIRTHDAY ON THAT DAY!
Now I am not a stalker but your canceling beer garden??????
You're totally a stalker.
And I was holding two bookings that night for Biergarten... One with the CP, and one without. I'm not cancelling them both, just one.
So... 12/10 is the night you were thinking about doing Candlelight Processional, right?
I'm sure you know this already, but ... Ana Gasteyer. I thought of you as soon as I saw that they announced the rest of the narrators.
Eh. She's bugs me less than some other people, but I don't love her.
How does this affect your plans?
Yep! Saw it! Cancelled my CP package ADR! Not interested!
So just sticking with my regular non-CP ADR, which fits much better into our plans anyhow.
Quickly coming up for air from work and catching up!
But your plans are making me REEEEEALLLLLYYYY excited! That photo of Ohana has me like
YAAAAAY! Welcome back!!! And yes, looking at Ohana pics makes me all
, too!
I think you should be equally as excited as the Princesses are going to be about meeting you!
Awww, do you really think they will be? I hope so!
No problems at all, I think your Aunt is going to be fine. However, Mission Space Orange team would NOT be OK for your Aunt, and is one attraction that I will never participate in again! I can still handle the Green team though.
Oh nooo, not even Green would be okay for her. I'm going to send her shopping in Mousegears while Uncle Mark and I got hit up Test Track and Mission Space!
That's a LOT of stuff! I am sure everyone will enjoy it. AND nothing can beat the osbourn lights.
I'm so happy that I chose a birthday trip instead of a Fall trip this year, because it means getting to see the lights one more time. Really looking forward to it!
I do hope your OK with the princesses. I always have a blast with them more then the fuzzies. more FUN interactions! I can't wait for you to try it!!! YAY
I'll be okay! I've done in-parks meets with Anna, Elsa, Cinderella, Rapunzel, Ariel, Tinkerbell, Gaston, etc. I was very nervous, but I guess I was more okay with those because they were over quickly. On my solo trip, the thought of having to interact with 5 face characters back-to-back kinda freaked me out, though.
But I'm sure I'll be fine this time, since I won't feel the pressure of having all of their attention on just me when they each come to our table. And Debby is more of a talker than I am, anyhow.
Yay, more plans!!!!
Lookin like a lot of fun.
Can't wait to read the actual trip report.
I've seen the Beverly mentioned a lot. Seems like Disney rite of passage or something. Couldn't contain my curiousity and had to finally google it. I'm not that brave so I'll pass. But if your aunt and uncle are, would be great to see reaction pics
The trick is that I won't tell them. I'll just wait and have the camera ready.
Hi there - I'm new here (though I've been lurking for awhile
I'm shy even online). Anyway, I came out of hiding to chime in on the motion sickness topic. I don't personally have issues, but I have a friend who was my Disney buddy for a few years (we live in FL so we got annual passes at the same time) who does. As mentioned above, the only place on SE where she had issues
was the backwards part, but it was because of the lights overhead and she just closed her eyes. But! She also had an issue on Nemo (I know, what?! It's the tamest ride EVER). It's the part where you "catch" the EAC with Crush, Squirt, and the other sea turtles - the motion of moving sideways in the clamshell while watching the screen really bothered her (just at that part - the rest of the ride was fine)! Since you asked about motion sickness, I thought I'd mention it since who would think FN could be a problem? You might want to warn your aunt to close her eyes if she feels sick at that part!
Can't wait to read about the rest of your plans! It sounds like you're going to have a really fun trip!!
Hooray!
Thanks for the tips on Spaceship Earth and Nemo. I'm really hoping that she does well on both of those, because I reallllllly want her to be able to do SOARIN'! But if she has problems on SE or Nemo, I know there's just no way she'll be able to handle Soarin'. Fingers crossed!
Great day 3 plans! I love Akershus breakfast. You'll be fine with the character interactions, they're pretty minimal with adults-only groups (or so I've felt).
I'm okay with that! They SHOULD spend more time with the kiddos! I'm perfectly happy with just a quick cheerful hello and a photo!
For SSE, I don't think the time that you're backwards is bad at all. A lot of people I know that have issues just close their eyes.
Yes, that's what I'm think. I'll have her sit in my car with me so that I can warn her when it's coming, etc. I think she'll be okay!
And Osbourne lights! I'll miss them
Me tooooo! So glad that I get one last time to see them!
It seems strange that after 12 years here on these boards, I only hit my 4,000th post last week! I do tend to take long hiatuses from here if I don't have a trip I'm actively planning, though. (Guess I'll just have to always have a trip in the works from now on!) 
We got Ana Gasteyer. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against her at all. I'm sure she's lovely. Just not somebody I'm willing to make special plans around.
