Our alarm went off at 7am and Gma literally jumped out of bed. Today was the big day and we had to make sure we were ready on time. At 7:40 we went down to get some breakfast. While we were waiting outside on the balcony for everyone we saw that the lifeguards were training and being tested in the pool.
On our way to the food court we couldnt help but watch them as we walked passed. It was like a pool party we werent invited too.
When we arrived at the food court it was the game of hurry and choose what you want because we have to get ready to leave soon. I decided to go with the bagel breakfast sandwich, which of course at the time werent cooked. Everyone else got the breakfast platter and raved about the potato casserole.
After getting our breakfast of champions we decided to take it back to the room to eat.
While eating Brittany said to put on Stacy
what a poor choice. Unlike everyone else we dont really like Stacey at all. I find her annoying. Sorry not sorry.
After we finished up our breakfast we wheeled all our luggage outside
And wheeled it to the elevator.
The elevator was a hot mess! We all packed in & had to leave a lady because there was not enough room for her. So we went up where people were waiting, but they soon realized they would not be getting on with us. So we went back down and stopped on our floor, where the lady was still waiting. She looked real confused when the doors opened. Finally we got on the ground floor and headed to the front.
It was definitely a party!
So many people, how are we to get to Port Canaveral?!
2 wonderful people here on the Dis, Posin Ivy and Johnny Quest set up a bus from Disney World to Port Canaveral for those people on the Dis who were interested. So with a party of 12 in Disney World it was cheaper to go on the bus then it was to rent cars.
Pop was the last stop for the Happy Limo, so Danielle and Adam tried to save as many seats as they could. When we got on Andy stated Everyone is so friendly on this bus!
But it is seriously the perfect statement, Youre on a bus with people who are all DVC members as well as disboards members
the nicest people you will ever meet!
GOODBYE POP CENTURY, HELLO PORT CANAVERAL!!!!
I was planning on sleeping the whole way to the port but with the sun shinning and all the excitement, my plan on napping didnt happen. Alicia however passed out in no time
I dont really know what happened in the hour drive to the port, all I know is it was selfie nation in the back of the bus!
Alicia woke up and had her second breakfast, her favorite doughnuts from home that Andy was kind enough to purchase before the trip.
We finally got closer, drove over a bridge and to our left we saw the beautiful Dream awaiting our arrival!
Excitement grew more and more the closer we got.
To keep myself busy before we could get off the bus I was a nice friend and put Brittanys hair into a fishtail braid.
We arrived at the port at 10:30 and we were all ready to get off the bus!
But before we did a cruise CM came on the bus and told us to make sure all our luggage was accounted for when we got off the bus because they would be taking it right away and we wouldnt be seeing it till we got our room later that day.
After checking our bags, we walked down the sidewalk to the entrance to find Aunt Lisa and Jackson waiting first in line. We waited outside the gates until they opened at 10:30.
Once it hit 10:30 we were welcomed in through the gates. With such a big group we had to make sure everyone in the same cabin stayed together. The first check in spot was right as you walked through the gate. There a CM takes you reservation and everyone in the cabins ID/Passport.
After the pretty simple process you then make the trek into the building.
Once you walked through the doors to the building you were held in a room where you formed a line to go through security bag check and scanner. The first line was cut behind us, making another line for another bag check. Our group got cut in half, our half got stuck in the SLOW line. It literally took forever!
So close yet so far
While we were stuck in a hold pattern, Ma, Pa, Brad and Sarah made it through and went up the escalators to check in.

I cracked up laughing at the montage of Gma on her scooter at the end!!
Another fantastic video!
I also lurked your last TR because I found it too late but I'm glad I'm able to enjoy this one! I loved your video, you guys are hilarious! You always seem like you are having the BEST times ever and I love it!! I have fun watching/reading about all your fun!
(That's a blown mind, not a headache.) And those buttons too. I'm one of those people who always wants to be crafty but it seldom turns out. 
So I'll just have to admire your handiwork since I have none!
me too! I can't wait to relive all the good times this cruise has brought us.
And the best way to dry off after getting soaked on Splash is DEFINITELY getting whipped around on Big Thunder.
That's really cool that you were able to get on a bus set up by other DISers. For a long-ish trip out to the port, it's pretty cool to be able to share a cheaper ride with a bunch of people you already know you have something in common with.
