Cant wait to hear what all you rode!
Those ice cream sandwiches looked great!!
The ice cream was awesome, and the cookies there are pretty darn good too!
One thing I will say now about the rides, not to give too much away, but we rode a lot - I felt like we got a lot of rides in on all of the days down there. I don't know if it was lower crowds or being at the right park on the right day, or having a good touring plan, but we rarely waited more than 10-15 minutes for anything, A LOT of stuff we walked on (either from FP or just no lines), even major attractions we repeatedly walked on. Can't wait to tell you about the rides!
Hi Karen,
I just found your report - subbing!
Will catch up tomorrow!
Thanks for joining! So great to have more readers!! You have a trip coming up soon too!
Hi Karen!! I am so happy you are writing at TR. I am looking forward to reading all about your trip.
2100 pictures!! How great!! I am really looking forward to getting back to Disney to take pictures. I have always loved taking them but I was just transition to a digital camera at that point so this trip will be lots of fun for me with that aspect with me. Which program do you use to edit your photos?
Wow! Both of your DS look wide awake that early in the morning!! So glad the drive to the airport and flight were smooth.
Oh my!! I sure hope McQueen is feeling better!! I'll add him to my prayers.
While we have been to Disney one other time, it was before the dining plan. I am a little nervous to figure it out too! Any tips?
I'm looking forward to finding the picture of Roy and Minnie. Oh my those ice cream sandwiches look so delicious!! I may have to add that to my snack list.
I've never seen the MouseKosh bibs before!! So cute!!
Good first day overall!! Looking forward to reading more when you have the time to post.
Hi Stephanie!
I use and old (ancient) version of Adobe Photoshop Elements (it came with my DSLR 7 years ago when I got it) but it is a great program - pretty easy to use and you can do some nice effects. The program has saved a lot of so-so pix for me and made them usable pcitures! There are new Elements programs out that are really good (and can be used for digital scrapbooking), I'd love to upgrade but its costly and mine still works fine.
It was a first great day - I still can't believe how smooth it all went and how fast all fo the busses and check-in were. I was very impressed with all of it!
McQueen is doing much better today, he was still coughing a lot yesterday but we put him to bed very early and he got a great nights sleep, and his coughing, like flipping a switch, just completely stopped during the night - the meds finally took effect. I had to do 1 breathing treatment with him at midnight, and he never coughed after that, and he got up this morning like he was perfectly fine (still a little sniffle) so I sent him to school this morning, he was so excited to go, but sad that he missed the first day yesterday. I was able to talk to his teacher and excuse him from PE today and he knows he can't run around at recess or it'll set off an asthma attack, so I'm hoping he'll have a great day and no problems. He was so happy to be at school, he lined up and started talking to his friends and just had the biggest grin on his face - shot he a quick glance and a wave, and headed into school.
Woo hoo for going to the MK right away!
Those ice cream sandwiches look so good. I have never had one of those things.
Maybe next trip!
When I saw you went to Toontown and Mickey's house I was wondering if you were going to have a picture of the overalls with Mousekosh on them. hehe It is such a fun touch and only us Wisconsinites could really appreciate that!
I agree about the heat. It was pretty bad here this summer but Florida takes it to a whole different level.
I can put up with it for a few days but I would not want to live like that for several months! I'd much rather have our cold. haha
Can't wait to hear about your first morning!
Hahah - I knew you'd like those bibs! I laughed when I saw them!
You gotta try the ice cream sandwiches - we split one and the kids split theirs - to me they actually look smaller in the pictures then they did in person! The cookies gotta be like 6 inches around, they are huge - then in go 3 big scoops of ice cream, and they crush them flat. So delicious! I couldn't get any more pix before everyone dove into them!
It seemed by like the 3rd day I was getting used to the heat - it was still hot but I could finally stand it! The first 2 days all you could think about was how hot it was, but after that it didn't bother me as much - only when I noticed the sweat trickling down my back and legs!! Ugh!
