"Only Heaven Is Better than Disney World": Live TR 8/24

[jc040404]

Subbing! I love live reports! That cloud pic was incredible. I showed it to my four year old and now he's begging to fly somewhere! Can't wait to read more!

I couldn't get a great shot coming through the Disney World entrance, but I managed something.

Forty five minutes after we got off the plane, we arrived at...

We had done online check-in, so we headed over to their desk.

We were hoping we might get some pixie dust, but alas, no upgrade. Our room was ready even though it was only 10:10. We are in Rapa Nui on the third floor.

Views from our balcony:

We were hungry, and lunch isn't until 1:15 so we got a quick snack and drinks at the GCH.

Now we are waiting for the DHS bus. It's been about 25 min. and two AK buses have come and gone. My fiancé, being the gentleman that is, just gave his seat at the bus stop up to a nice older lady whose granddaughter got chosen to sing at the 2:00 American Idol show.

It's been raining on and off since we got to our room, but it is Florida and August, so hopefully it will clear up soon!

I'm in! I love live TRs!!!

So a couple of questions (because I want to do a live TR when I'm there WITH pics):

1. Did your flight offer wireless so you could post pics and updates while up in the air? Does it cost a lot$$$ ?

2. How are you able to post photos with your iphone on the boards? I have an iphone but I only know how to post photos using photobucket and I haven't tried doing that with the iphone.

Thanks!!!

Love that you included airport, ME and on-the-road pics. Makes me that much more excited! Thanks for keeping us posted.

(Oh, side benefit of posting my appreciation for a Poly TR -- I get to see my ticker. )

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! This is so fun - loved the little girl's response and I totally agree

I have actually been watching a live stream from a web site from somone staying at the Poly since this weekend (only thing I see is mostly trees but still fun to see live). Now that you are reporting live as well, it is double fun

I hope your trip isn't affected by the Tropical storm heading up from Bermuda - here's lots of so that your trip continues to be magical!

I have been scrolling through trip reports all day since I am in a huge I miss Disney funk.
Thanks so much for letting us all in on your trip by posting live for us.
Can't wait to hear about lunch and the rest of your day!

Ok, battery is running low, so no pics until tonight. Had lunch at 50s PTC and had the most awesome waiter and even better, there was a fellow DISer (janetb) sitting next to us! More details and pics tonight. Time for Lights, Motor, Action! Then some rides and Hollywood Brown Derby for dinner.

I love Rapa Nui! We like it because of it's proximity to the TTC and the parking lot. We hope to get that LH on our upcoming trip.

Thanks for the live report!

The little girl on the plane sounds adorable- I love hearing the things kids come up with.
