A Daily Lesson Part II: The CampbellScot's take on Animal Kingdom Lodge*update 6/5*

[tinkermamaof2]

Loved the update Miss Cammie. We also had the smoking area problem while staying at AKL...who's bright idea was that? We did find that by cutting through the marketplace you could avoid the smoking area. My daughters do the coughing thing when walking by smokers as well. Too bad about so much rain...hope it cleared up through your trip.

Great update.

Awesome update. Teddy reminds me of some of the students in my class when he was going on and on about the tree. I love that! I cried when Sally cried. I remember how important Minnie Mouse is to her. Thanks for the great writing! I always enjoy your trip reports.

We hopped on and took a seat. Teddy took a deep breath and said "It still smells like elephants and giraffes in here!"



It wasn't a complaint. Teddy was thrilled!

Sally wrinkled her little nose. She wasn't nearly so thrilled with the zoo smell! I will always find it an odd smell that is unique to the monorail at Disney...and animals parks.

It does have that peculiar smell like that of a barn doesn't it.

Great update as always MissCammie.

Whew ! That one got me all teary-eyed
Loving the Report ...............

 

[Fluffypants]

Another beautiful chapter. I love Sally's relationship with Minnie.

I am really hoping that the weather improved for you!!!

Oh . . . and I think Jay should teach a class on poncho folding!!

Your TR's always make me cry!! Sally's love for Minnie Mouse is so wonderful! Every child should have something that can make them so happy like that!

 

[jillyb]

Your Teddy sounds alot like my Hannah. I swear the child talks so much it makes my ears bleed. But I love her madly! LOL And when she's excited she's all over the place.

Another great update! And as soon as I saw the words "Minnie Mouse" I started tearing up because I remember the meeting with Minnie from your last report and I knew this was going to be special too. God Bless Minnie!

 

[Bibbidi]

Great update. Sally sounds so much like my dd (soon to be 8) and the funny thing is I have a sister named Sally, who was very much like your Sally when she was growing up.

Sorry you had scary rain---it's amazing how it can come down sometimes in FL.

I will be praying for Sally's surgery next week.

 

[kafitty]

i'm absolutely dying, thinking about Teddy dancing around singing "You Can't Stop the Beat"! i LOVE that song, and listen to it in my car, LOUDLY, OFTEN! And i know i dance around like a moron... oh man i will definitely be thinking of Teddy next time i hear it!

 

[Lovemy3babes]

I cried during the Minnie incident on your first report and I am crying now. What a little love Sally is. I hope the rain lets up on the rest of your trip.

 

[catherines_mama]

Miss Cammie.. what a great chapter.. Sally is so sweet with her Minnie Mouse.

Faye was a a nasty storm, I don't remember exactly when it was here and gone. I hope it clears out soon for your trip... can't wait to read more!!!

We've not yet done Chef Mickey's but are going in June, I'm SO excited to try it.

Love, Love, Love this chapter! I am a huge Hairspray fan! My kiddos and I erupt into spontaneous dance parties in the kitchen whenever we play the CD! TOO MUCH FUN! So sweet the relationship your Miss Sally has with Minnie! My own little girls are wild for the mice too! My 5yr old wrote a letter to Minnie and Mickey and personally hand delivered it to them after waiting in line for 25 mins! They were so thrilled with the letter and made a BIG production of reading it and then carefully handing it over to theor handlers to keep! My DD was thrilled beyond words! Biggest smiles ever! Can't wait to read more MissCammie! Lovin' it so far!

Woo-hoo a new chapter! Sally and Minnie - I am crying sitting here too! I love how tuned in so many of the character and other cm's are and it is one of the many things that makes me love WDW. We loved AKL but agree about the dumb smoking area - why wasn't it on the other side of the entrance??? We finally learned the cutting through Zawadi market trick too.

Prayers to Sally, Happy Birthday to both kids, and Looking forward to the next chapter!

 

[ProudMommyof2]

I was nervous that Sally would be upset if Minnie didn't remember her. I am so glad she has that special connection- she will always remember it.

 

[coffeehousemom]

Thanks for the update Miss Cammie!! Thanks also for the Sally update. Good luck this week & happy birthday to the kiddos.


I do think that Teddy & my DS are twins at heart I swear mine never stops talking even in his sleep.


Happy Easter.

 

[thelittlemermaid83]

I cried last time the Sally met Minnie and now i'm crying again.

Fab update.

 

[micandminforever]

Great update, I must admit even at my age I get excited when I see Minnie.

 

[Shazzie B]

We were at AKL on Mon 25th Aug -Never seen rain like it and we're from the UK We had about 30 min wait for our ressie at Boma and just sat on a bench and watched it pour down-the road was like a river. Wonder if this was the same night.

Enjoying your updates MissCammie; love and prayers to all of you; especially Sally. My DD had to have a general for facial surgery a few years ago so I know how you're feeling
