Rebecca we've never been to Tom Sawyer's Island either. I don't know why just never made it across the water. I guess you always have to save something to see on your next trip so you'll keep coming back.

I guess that is true, I've been over there but not for years. I think Disney Land made TSI into a pirates lair, now if they did that here I would be over the whole day!

Can you ride Pooh for the Judi family and of course for the FofP family.

We now need pictures of craneless castle. We will also need daily pictures of shirts by Becca.(in case I want to add to my list of needful things)

Now quit having a real life for we need an update. Yes I can say please

Judi

I will ride Pooh for you and your family and of course FofP. I have shirts for everyday too. Yes, I'm a dork. I will upate today sometime.....

While you are out camping w/ a camper..not camperless camping..I'd thought I'd take over your Pre/TR.

Where's my shirt Where are the EE pictures

I'm not wanting you to update too soon am I
Come home I need reading material~~~Please

Judi

You have to wait until I venture north for your shirt, just keep on testing me, I will think of a great saying!

Yes, we definitely will need daily t-shirt pictures!! I love coasters, just no simulators for me-they make me really sick! Which is such a BUMMER because they all look so cool! I may be brave enough to try the wimpy side of Mission Space next trip!! Although, I must say that the indoor in the dark coasters that Disney loves so much can also mess with my head/stomach-I do better being able to see where I'm going!

How dare you go off and enjoy life while we are waiting for the next installment??

Angie, Angie, Angie when are you going to start your pretrip report so I can heckle you?

Your camping weekend is over. Let's have it.

Don't you know you need at least 2 days to recuperate from camping before doing anything in real life.

Could you please quit counting & give us the next days plans. Or ...should I just keep running Amuk

Now on with the show

We'll call this your grace period then. I'll enjoy a nice cup of coffee Wednesday morning while reading your new installment.

Day 4 will find us back at the Magic Kingdom, this is Space Mountain day. For J-man it will be his first time, if he doesn't chicken out. It is also Little Ones Extra Magic Hour, so we will be up before dawn so we can do it. J-man is still a little one, heck I even consider Boo a little one. Once we get to the Magic Kingdom for rope drop we will make a beeline for Fantasyland once again. First up will be Pooh (just for Judi). I like the Pooh ride, not as much as Mr. Toad, but Pooh is good.

After Pooh diddy we will head to Peter Pan, yes again we will probably ride this about a dozen times during our time at MK, I love it and the kids love it. Then Snow White, J-man doesn't love this one but I have him spot the witch and we yell Boo at her when we spy her, keeps him occupied. We may see Philharmagic now or maybe later, it depends on how close it is to 9:00.

Up next is Space Mtn. we will get fastpasses then ride standby. Then Buzz Lightyear, Speedway, TTA, Monters Inc. comedy show, Carousel of Progress, Space Mtn. again and then Buzz again. By now it will be time for lunch, we will eat with our favorite alien, Sonny at Cosmic Rays.
I don't want to ride with Justin on the Speedway, he is a horrible driver, he hit the middle rail so many times last year. I thought I had whiplash! On second thought I should ride with him so he doesn't injure Grandma.

After lunch we will journey over to Adventureland to tackle the Magic Carpets of Aladdin, the Tiki Birds and Pirates again. Plus I will get a Dole Whip, love those! I want to try to see Belle's fairytale garden, Hall of Presidents and Toontown today if we can. We also have the AAA storytime scheduled at 4:30. We have no ADR's for today so dinner will be whatever looks good at that time. It will be a long day, but we may try to stay for Wishes if everyone is up to it.
We may stroll up Main Street to see if we can find some of it's residents.

This so makes me want to go to the MK now!!! Love the pictures with the descriptions!

 

[rentayenta]

Love the pictures of past trips!

 

[Grumpy's Wife]

I'm so wanting to go back to the MK. I've never had a Dole Whip. I don't know why just never had one. I love, love, love Carousel of Progress. It's been a few years since I've been on that one. It was closed last time I was there. For some strange reason I have this little song stuck in my head. Come on and sing along with me...........Now is the time, now is the best time, now is the best time of your life. Well you get the picture.


Day four looks great Rebecca.

 

[ShhhQ]

Your description of MK is making me wanna go so bad.... can I wait another Month?

I must confess I had my first Dole Whip last trip, I can't believe I hadn't had one sooner. I'll sing with you "There's a great big beautiful tomorrow waiting at the end of everyday...." Is that enough Tricia?

You and your mom are going to have so much fun!

Yes, Miss Judi, I'm working on the next day.

We're going back to Epcot today. My second favorite park! We of course will get there at rope drop, because that's what Tour Guide Mike tells me to do. I always listen to Mike! From there I will head right to Soarin' to get Fastpasses for later. Grandma and the boys will meet me at The Imagination Pavillion so I can go see Figment. The boys don't really like this ride and I don't like it nearly as much as the original, but I love Figment. I think what the boys really hate is the smell during the ride, I won't ruin it for anyone who hasn't been on it before, but it isn't good.
The boys outside of the Imagination Pavillion

Justin dancing in the Lab at the end of the ride

From Figment we will head over to the Living Seas or whatever it's called now. We must see Turtle Talk, last year Brendan was chosen to talk to Crush. Crush said "let me talk to the dude in the blue striped shell". He made Boo say Totally sweet. It was great! The kids love Crush and Squirt. I have a thing for sea turtles too. My only tattoo is of a sea turtle. We will also check out the Nemo ride since it wasn't open when we were there last.

After were done in the Seas it will be time for us to Soar over California, we love this ride!! Then I will get Fastpasses for Test Track on our way to Norway for lunch. I love their Jarlsburg and leek soup there and the schoolbread, can't forget the schoolbread. After lunch we will head to China and hopefully see Mulan. She is Brendan's favorite, favorite character. After he saw her last year I think I could have told him we have to go home now and he would have been fine with it. He had succeeded in his mission, we had a picture and autograph from Mulan. She was so great with him too, she had just gotten out and there was no one there to see her so she spent lots of time with him. She told him that most boys don't like the pink dress, he told her she looked beautiful. Priceless!!!
See how happy he is?

From here we will backtrack to Mexico and ride the new improved version of the boat ride. Name escapes me now. Then back to Test Track to use our fastpasses. From there I will run and get fp for Soarin' again. While gma takes the boys to Innoventions East, so they can race robots and make them. For free, yes free. Great fun even for me.

Then off to Innoventions West to do the fire safety game, Boo and I will kick butt here. Then character connection before heading to dinner.
Here are the boys with the Mouse himself and his beautiful girlfriend. Minnie always kisses Jman, he gets so embaressed but will always talk about it. Too cute!

Here is Pluto playing with Justin

Dinner tonight will be at the Coral Reef, we loved this last year. I cannot eat fish while looking at fish but Brendan had no problem! Last year the diver came over to play with the boys, he was having them do everything he did, very cute! This was also the meal where they sat the quietest and just watched fish and sea turtles. Very relaxing!

Not the best picture of the diver, but I had to put it in. I'm working on a surprise for the boys here and it has to do with the diver.

After dinner we will use our Soarin' fastpasses and call it a night!

Day 5 looks good to me! What do you think about the sign coming down from Spaceship Earth? I am kind of torn about it. I don't mind things going back to their original design, but I knind of liked the wand. Plus, I'm hoping it's all done by the time we get there. I have a feeling it won't be, though.

BTW - I love sea turtles, too. Have loved them long before Nemo!!

 

[Grumpy's Wife]

Day five looks fun. I've heard lots of good things about the school bread in Norway but once again never tried it. I'm going to start a list of all the things I've never done and start scratching them off on my next trip. Are you going to ride Maelstrom while you are in Norway? It was closed for repairs when we were there in November.

The picture of Brendan and Mulan is so cute. He has a grin on his face from ear to ear. I love the one of Justin and Pulto. It's so nice when the characters play around with the kids.

 

[ocd4disney]

Just posting so you know I was here . I love all the pictures.

 

[mishasmom]

I love Epcot! We're staying at BCV this time, and I'm so excited to be able to walk over there! I'm with Tricia-I need to make a list of all the things people say are great but I've never tried!

 

[faindrops27]

Rebecca, I am loving your pictures. By the way, how did the bag fit, better, or no go?

Question, where in China' Pavillion do you find Mulan. I think Justin, and Xavier would enjoy meeting her. When Xavier was little he the movie!

I'm happy about the sign coming off of Spaceship Earth, I guess I'm a purist and remember it without the hand and wand. I like the hand and wand, they just need to put it in a better spot. My boys have never seen it without the wand and hand, I hope it will be gone before we get there too, but doubt it.
Yeah, glad you love sea turtles too. I've loved them since I was very young, we used to fish in the ocean and they would swim up to the boat once in awhile, loved it!

Tricia, definitely try the schoolbread. Now that I say that you probably won't like it, but if you like coconut, cream and doughnut like dough it's sooooo good.

Just posting so you know I was here . I love all the pictures.

I wondered where you were Heather!

Angie, you are going to be able to roll back to the room after leaving the Food and Wine festival. Good planning!

I did try the bag that way and it does fit better, it may work now!

Mulan was outside of the store in the back, as you are walking up to the store she was on the right side very easy to find. I hope she is there this year, Brendan keeps telling me he has to see her. She is the only character he's even talked about meeting!

Today we will finally be at Animal Kingdom, we love this park! It is a close second place in my park ranking. We will be there for rope drop, then we will motor over to Asia to get fastpasses for Expedition Everest before riding standby. Brendan loved this last year and hopefully Justin will be tall enough to ride too.

From EE we'll be going to Dinoworld to ride Primeval Whirl and Tricera Top Spin. J-man won't be tall enough to ride PW so he and Grandma will take a spin with a triceratops while Boo and I go spinning away. We may or may not ride Dinosaur, neither boy really like it that much. We will play some games in Dinoworld before heading back to Asia to use our Everest fastpasses.

After Everest the Maharajah Jungle Trek will be calling to us so we will go see the tigers. They have animal footprints in the cement and Justin knelt down last year and tried to figure out which animal was which. He could have stayed there all day!

I'll get fastpasses for the safari before we head to lunch at Flametree BBQ. We've never eaten here, but since Tusker House will be closed we are going to give it a try. After lunch we will do the safari or Pangani Trail. I'll then try and get another set of fastpasses for EE before seeing the Flights of Wonder show. Another first for us! Then we'll make our way over to Camp Minnie Mickey to see the Lion King show. This is a must see! After that we will try to see the parade, maybe the Nemo show and ride EE again.

After we have had out fill of Animal Kingdom we will take a bus to the Animal Kingdom Lodge to have dinner at Boma! Love Boma, so good. Last year I mentioned to Chef TJ that I had read about him on the DISboards and he brought out some shrimp on a skewer just for us. Then he brought out some deep fried oreos. They were to die for.

We may decide to hit Downtown Disney tonight or the pool who knows!
