Welcome to my first TR!!!


We have been home for a little over a month now and as promised I am finally going to start my TR! For those who dont know Brian and I you can use the link below to learn a little bit about us and our pre-trip plans

http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2530206

I will give you a very brief description of Brian and I for those who don't want to go back to the PTR:

My name is Amanda. I am 23 years old. This trip was my first to Disney...EVER. I challenged myself to ride everything (you will have to follow to see if I chickened out or not:confused3) I was most looking forward to the shows and atmosphere. My favorite movie is The Lion King. Beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid are tied for second. I love to vacation!!


DH is Brian he is 25. This was technically his second trip to WDW, although he doesn’t remember much from his first trip when he was younger. He was most looking forward to relaxing and riding rides. He wasn't a huge Disney fan before this trip, but he now likes to point at Mickey things everywhere we go...which I love. :) His favorite Disney movie is Aladdin. Brian also loves vacation, but unlike me he doesn't care as much where we go as long as he gets to relax and sleep in (which we didnt do much of this trip)

Our trip dates we September 17-24, 2010. We chose these dates so we could celebrate our anniversary the 20th. These were great dates because the crowds were low, but our next trip will definitely be in winter. I hate the heat. It was frustrating to spend 30 minutes on my hair and have to put it up after an hour due to the humidity and heat. (I am definitely not a Florida girl...haha) With that said I look SCARY in MANY photos so I will apologize now. :rotfl: Also, it is important for me to tell you all in advance I am not great at grammar (ok I'm awful) and I can be very random....you have been warned.

Yay!! You started!!!!:thumbsup2

Missed you around here, glad you're back and looking forward to hearing all about your trip and seeing if we crossed paths at all!!!

Hope you're well!!:goodvibes
 
Can't wait to read all about it! BTW, I have the same problem with Florida hair! :rotfl:
 

read along on the preTR and here for this one, looking forward to it.
 
Ohhhhh! You two are such a cute couple. I feel for you on the heat issue. We are from Texas so we are used to it but coming from a cooler climate I am sure can be brutal.

Anyway, can't wait to read more. Keep the updates coming. :)
 
ready to read this one! haha. i read some of your pre-trip report.. i love how you said it's hard for you to relax on vacations. Me too! Even though that's what they are supposed to be for, I'm never relaxing. ha! I'm a huge Disney fan and am looking forward to this report!

I didnt even know you started you TR!! I will be over soon!

It was hott!! I wasnt prepared for it... even though I was warned. We must have lucked out when we were in Florida two years ago on our honeymoon it was so comfortable and nice out.


Welcome!!

Excited to read about your trip :goodvibes

I'm excited to look back at it...I have been having vacation blues
 
AHHHH! I didn't see this until today! I hope I'm on the first page. :goodvibes So glad you started!

I was wondering how you felt about the heat. I'm not a heat girl either and May was even a little too warm for me. I was afraid if you didn't like hot weather what you would think. I didn't want it to ruin your first trip. Oh, and you probably have noticed from my TR that I haven't posted many pictures of myself either. #1 - I was usually holding the camera (and we didn't get the photopass) and #2 - I didn't want to scare anyone.

Can't wait to read more! popcorn::

Aww, thanks so much! Ya I enjoy my seasons and layering. Ive decided to never vacation during fall again. I need to stay in Ohio and enjoy the weather.

Yep you made first page!! I'm so sorry I was absent from the boards so long I need to get back into reading everyones I following before I left. Ya, heat...ewww. Our next trip will be in November so we can see all the lights and enjoy cooler weather. They were already putting up christmas lights when we were there. It made me want to stay and see what it was going to look like when they were done...maybe next year.
 
:cool1: Yay! You've started & I'm in!

I am totally with you on both of these!
 
Im in .... get those photos up..... being a lover of flying/travelling I enjoy reading those details as much as all the actiual WDW stuff:thumbsup2
 

Sorry I didn’t get time to post today like I had planned. :guilty: We will be leaving in 3 hrs to go to NYC and I have tons to get done b4 we go. We will be driving through the night and arrive in the city around 7 am. We will have the day to do whatever we want and we are back on the bus at 8pm to head home. It will be nice to get their without flying (I now hate flying...you will learn why in my TR report) or having to drive ourselves which I wouldn’t enjoy either. I really hope the bus is clean and comfortable so I can get some decent sleep. Definately not holding my breath though.

I know to some people this might sound crazy but for $50 a person I couldn’t pass it up. I'm thinking this one day will let us get familiar with the city (1st trip for both us) and it will give us a much needed date day. Brian has been super busy with school working on his mba and I have been spending lots of time at the office and following my mentor trying to learn the business. I'm so excited to get an entire day with Brian!!

I promise when we return I will continue my TR. Have a good weekend everyone!!
 
I'm always amazed at people who have never been to NYC before. It's practically my backyard, I've been going there since I was a little girl. I take for granted how close it is. Let me know what you think of it!
 
I do Love your luggage!

Have a fun date day in NYC! I have always wanted to go. Maybe one day....
 
Can't wait to read all about your trip! Also hope you have fun in New York :banana:
