You will love Islands of Adventure! We were all really impressed by the whole park.
Anyway, I was lucky enough to get everything I needed with enough points left for another impromptu adults-only weekend sometime next year. Ahem.![]()
Yes, Harry Pottah! Evan's been practicing his Pottah accent by watching Chahlie bit my fingah on Youtube.Harry Pottah???
Lucky girl...lucky girl...
Your FB pics had us all drooling! We can't wait!You will love Islands of Adventure! We were all really impressed by the whole park.
I think you and Bill would love HP land!I love researching too!! We will make it to Potterland one of these days. I think it would be so fun to explore. I can't wait to read more.
Thanks! I can't wait for my first Butterbeer!I think a big toast is appropriate....

congrats on finding great airfare (I am still searching) and for making the choice to go and visit Harry! The WWofHP is simply amazing, sorry WDW but USO certainly blows you out of the water with theming here! Being Potter fans you will be in awe the first time you see Hogwarts! Less than 6 months and I will get another chance to just stand and stare with my mouth open like a fool!![]()
Me, too!Okay, I can't do the usual quote and reply right now, but had to at least pop in and say that I'm SO EXCITED for you guys to see Potterland!!! My descriptions just don't do the place justice. You'll love it!![]()
I love ya, but I don't think so.August, just sayin![]()
Yeah, trying keep track of all that.All of your room changes are making me dizzy.
Yup, that's more like it!As far as the adults only trip - we love going during F&W without kids.
Mine are the opposite... they'd kill me if we didn't get a least 1 day in Hogsmead.YAY on being a Potterhead!! i wish i could make a break at Hogsmead and all things potter, but convincing the rest of the family to skip out on the mouse for even a day... no such luck this time around
Hi Friend, thank you! I'm so glad you found my PTR and that you're reading along!Oh My Goodness! My eyes went like thiswhen I saw your PTR!! Then I was like this
cuz I love the Waldo's so excited there coming! Then I was like this
so happy your doing another TR!!! (you and V are amongst my favorite TR writers on the DIS by the way
)
Yeah!Another December '11 trip report!
Sub'ing and can't wait to read more!![]()
Thanks! I can't wait for my first Butterbeer!
And your second, and third, and fourth...The stuff is so addicting. You have to try both the frozen and the regular. I like them both...tip if the line outside at the cart is long go inside the Boar's Head Tavern there usually is not too long of a line inside. Also there is a great patio behind Boars Head/3 Broomsticks that has an awesome view of Hogwart's. It was so amazing to sit there drinking my Butter Beer and staring at up at Hogwarts!
Look, I know someday we will all outgrow WDW, but I have no doubts well be amigas por vida and well all vacation elsewhere TOGETHER! We may even be lucky enough to be in-lawed!

Now that the important parts of the trip were booked, I layed off any planning (except for the plans that roll around in my head 24/7) for a while and concentrated on my kids school activities and sports. One afternoon, I happened to be volunteering in Maddies class and I asked her current teacher what she thought about me taking my kids out of school for the 3 days before Winter Break. She didnt think it was a big deal, but asked if I had seen the 2011-2012 calendar year changes?
WTH?????
Coming up ..
What smarty pants changed the calendar? Pick a car, any car .whoa .is that dollars or pesos?
Speaking of dear friends .
This is a perfect time to introduce my DIS-sisters my sisters from other misters .my BFFs, Kate, Lauralee and V. Long story short, I met a trio of awesome chicks through an awesome group thread on the CB boards of the DIS (before they got skerry), circa 2007. Anyway, we sparked a special friendship that has carried beyond our mutual love of Disney and into our day to day lives. I dont think I go a day without some kind of contact with one or all 3 of them. Theyre awesome and I love them and their families like . well, like family. And that means a lot to brown folks. BTW, Im a brown peep.![]()
You'll get your Disney wedding one way or another, right?[
Yeah, notice something in common here? Yup.... boys, boy and another boy. Anyone else would feel bad for Maddie, but she does pretty good handling this group of boys. Personally, I think she really loves it!![]()
...We may even be lucky enough to be in-lawed!![]()
You have extra people in there.
And finally, last year - the best 4th of July vacation EVER!!
