Ha! I guess that would've helped if I told y'all how it tasted, eh?Wow that carmel shop looks delicious...did the treats taste as good as they looked?
Your TR's have made me really want to try and take in the Voices of Liberty on our next trip, we just never seemed to find the time for it before
I'm loving your TR and can't wait to hear more
Thanks for subbing! Looks like I may need to check out your TR and see how our whirlwind Thanksgiving trips compared!I'm subbing! We were there over Thanksgiving too.
Haven't they, though? I love looking back at my earlier TRs and seeing the changes... scary! We did get some caramel corn and enjoyed it when we returned home... probably the most delicious of all of our treats from that store. YUM!!Wow have your kids grown! Loving all the pictures of the yummy treats at the new shop in Germany. Their caramel corn is very good too.
Thanks so much!! We are always much more lovely when we are in Disney and have the 'glow'I'm really enjoying your TR! You have such a lovely family!
Your caramel treats look so yummy! I can't wait to stop in there on my next visit.
Looking forward to reading more!
Oh my gosh, do I ever understand this entire scene... just went through it ourselves! Poor Shae. She'll give it a try again someday, though!Then Shae realized how loud it was... and began to cry.. and cry hard. It was the LONGEST Mission: Space ride EH.VER. She wasn't upset by the simulator, she was upset with the sheer LOUDNESS of it all!!
We finally got off of the ride and tried to get her excited about the fact that it was over, and that she DID IT!! She didn't buy it. It took a while for her to recover.
LOL, another Borg moment... we only had one KP mission left to do, and yep - it was Germany! That was a fun one, wasn't it? Methinks Tyson and Leo would get along famously.Earlier in our walk around WS, we stopped for a Kim Possible Mission. Tyson just ADORES these! We had an awesome CM who asked us if we had done them before (Yes, we have) and then asked us which countries we hadn't done yet. Tyson almost screamed "GERMANY!!!"

What an amaaaazing first day! Can't wait to read more.
LOL, you know it!Hmmmmmmmm.... Space Mountain
ME thinks we need to get Leo and Tyson together ASAP!!!
Aw, love this!On our way over, we stopped to smell the roses:
Sweet! Wanna hear something funny? I can't remember if we did or not. I distinctly remember saying "Hey look - Tronorail!" But have no idea if we actually boarded it!Then headed to the monorail... oh, excuse me, TRONORAIL line!! YES!!! We got a Tronorail!
Awesome!Our first order of business was to walk down Main Street and take in all of the amazing Christmas magic. The kids' eyes truly sparkled when they first took in the castle.
SO true - I've quit trying!It was breathtakingly beautiful, and as I've said before, pictures can NEVER capture the beauty of the Christmas Castle, even with the BEST camera!
Too funny!So, we kept ourselves entertained by finding lightbulbs that were out:
Temporary - it seems to go on and off with some regularity; there've been days when we rode POTC twice and it was there once but not the second time.After the ride, we started walking around through Frontierland to Adventureland for a quick ride on Pirates. There was no line at all (especially on the LEFT side!) We were disappointed, though, because the fake waterfall with Davy Jones was NOT there!!! Does anyone know if that's temporary or permanent? We missed it a lot!!
They're really, really good! And no tripod?!?! I'm not that steady, lol!I tried to capture a few pictures, some came out better than others:
But, but... it's a great big, beautiful tomorrow!Once the crowds thinned, we made our way over to Tomorrowland. Ty shocked us all when he announced that he wanted to ride Carousel of Progress. I could hear DH's groan a mile away!!
Yay, that boy has good taste!20 minutes and a few naps later, we emerged, and Tyson announced that he LOVED it!
I love your waiting in line pictures for Small World. Thanks for posting about the change of the entrance and exit line. At Disney I am on autopilot and sometime miss new signs, and changes.
The pictures from wishes were great. I will be there in two more months I can't wait.
YES!!! I'm a winner! Can't wait to hear all about itLOL, you know it!
Thanks! She's such good little model... especially at Disney!Aw, love this!
That's funny, but I completely understand random memory lapses like this! I was looking ahead at the pictures for the next day of the trip and had to call in the family to help me remember what most of them were about!!Sweet! Wanna hear something funny? I can't remember if we did or not. I distinctly remember saying "Hey look - Tronorail!" But have no idea if we actually boarded it!
Don't get me wrong.. I've seen quite a few AMAZING Christmas Castle pics (and I'm sure you could get some of those!) But, you know what I mean... you just can't capture that feeling you get when you see them.SO true - I've quit trying!
Whew! Good to hear!!Temporary - it seems to go on and off with some regularity; there've been days when we rode POTC twice and it was there once but not the second time.
Thanks, V! It's me holding as still as I can with my crappy point and shoot. I keep thinking about retirement, when Matt and I move down there.. my #1 priority (after securing employment at WDW) is to get me a REAL GOOD camera and take up a new hobby!They're really, really good! And no tripod?!?! I'm not that steady, lol!
According to Matt, it's a great big, beautiful waste of time! He just doesn't get the classics...But, but... it's a great big, beautiful tomorrow!
Yay, that boy has good taste!
What an awesome ending to your first day...scoring a table by IASW, and getting a great spot for wishes=awesome!
Love the pic of your kids in front of the statue...too cute!!
Yikes about the crowds....that's insane
Looking forward to more
Subscribing! I'm just joining in - can't wait to read about it!
Loving your TR so far!!! I can't believe how much Shae grew in just a few months!
(One of the ways we've been getting my oldest niece to eat more - she's super tiny - is to tell her that she'll be tall enough to go on all the big rides at Disney on our 2012 trip. It totally works - and she talks about it all the time, apparently!)
I just love hearing about surprise Disney trips!
By the way, I think I missed it as to why you guys were staying at POFQ instead of a DVC?
