Subbing over here too! We were just there in the middle of July!
Joining in! Sounds like a super-fun trip, although it sounds like the travel day is going to be an interesting story....
I'm in!
Excited to read all about your adventure!
Joining in on this one too!

Subbing! I loved your last dining review and thought I'd follow you over to your TR proper! (Don't worry, I'm following for the food too ) Can't wait to see you start!

I just finished your solo TR, it was great, so I'm subbing into this one too. Can't wait to read more!
:O I can't believe all that! I'm glad you guys finally got there!
Oh my gosh!! What a day! Sorry for the frustration but glad you made it - 5 hours late but you made it! One ADR as a casualty isn't bad considering the fact they weren't going to get you to WDW that night.
Were you staying in the villas?
BTW: This WAS interesting!!
I'm sorry you had such a rough travel day! I hate traveling and I get worked up when things go wrong too, its really hard not too! I'm glad you guys made it!
Holy Moly Becky, that is some travel story!! Just... Wow. And YIKES.
I've always hated the line-ups at the car rentals, so I joined one of the free "member" programs. Let me tell you... DO THIS if you do much car renting. I use Dollar, and with the free Dollar Express, I basically pick up my luggage and walk outside and get in the car. No lines, nothing. Highly recommended.
Oh God, I drive without the headlights in Florida way more than I'd like to admit. I'm so used to having a car with auto headlights, that it just doesn't occur to me.
Honestly, I totally enjoyed reading it despite how lousy the day was. So glad you're finally in Disney and the good stuff can start.
Joining in! I can't wait to see the AoA photo shoot! We stayed at AoA in January and loved! Planning to go back in Jan 2015 - WAY too long!
I can't believe the troubles you had with your travel. I would have been a complete MESS. I hate flying anyway, so I would probably have freaked out about the plane being fixed so quickly. At least you made it safely!
Great pics!
wow, so sorry to hear about the travel issues - but at least you go down there that day and it didn't impact the bachelor party
Your trip kinda reminds me of our honeymoon trip where our first leg flight was delayed causing us to miss our transfer in Puerto Rico and we kept getting put on standby and were worried we wouldn't get to our final destination that day (spoiler alert: we didn't) and when we were up at the ticket desk, with my wife already near/in tears, the ticket agent told us we "just have to look at this as an adventure" - thought my wife was going to lose it on her
What a nightmare travel day! I also had a bad experience traveling on Delta when we were coming home from our Disneyland trip (although I'm willing to chalk it up to a mistake on my part, the overall situation just leaves a bad taste in my mouth). Sorry you missed out on Sanaa! But I'm very glad you made it there the same day - nothing like collapsing into your hotel bed after a long day of travel knowing you've arrived!
Whoa! Your travel day was HIDEOUS! I am so sorry. I'm glad that it didn't end up as bad as it sounded like it would, but still. I hope the rest of the trip makes up for it!
Wow! What a headache! Glad you finally got to your room
Oh what an awful way to begin a trip, not sure if I would have been brave enough to get onto the "fixed" plane.
Glad all turned out well eventually with getting your rental car and other tha missing your Sanaa reservation arriving at 10pm still allowed you to eat and get a good nights sleep.
I had an arrival day ADR for Sanaa but changed it just in case.
What a dreadful travel day. Glad you got there before that day was over though.
The one time Ballet Girl used Delta it was a disaster, as well. Actually, the only two times she hasn't used Southwest have been disasters with huge delays -- now she's a Southwest fan for life, I think.
And I think I forgot to say how neat it is that you're at AKL! Kudos to unnamed relative.
