A Not So Scary September Birthday Celebration of Magic! Updated 9/23!!

[shan23877]

I love your MK plans! Good tip to remember about Naveen. I always enjoy the meets more when the prince is there. They seem to have more freedom to have fun.

I'm hoping that we'll meet Peter Pan this trip too. He's out by the Rapunzel bathrooms now right? I think that's what Kenny the pirate said...


So, I'm reading the update and Maddie yells "Stop Mommy! I'd recognize that ceiling anywhere!"

Yup, my girl is so obsessed with BoG that she can pick out the restaurant by a pic of the ceiling. To say she's excited to eat there is an understatement.

Hahah, I loved looking through all the photos and watching the planned day unfold when BAM... ANOTHER POINT!!!! Ugh I would have been so upset if I got this BOG wrong.

Wow, only day 1 and it's looking like a great trip. It's so much fun being with a newbie.

Hmmm, I'm gonna think long and hard about that next ADR...

 

[monkey30]

great update! I am thinking you will be doing Lunch at Sci-fi, but I could be wrong!

 

[lvcourtneyy]

Your plans for MK look awesome!

We will be in MK for the 2nd half of this day because we're park hopping over to see the MSEP since it's not being given on our other MK days. I agree with you that it's not a must-see for every trip for me. We watched it on our first trip and then skipped it last time so I want to see it this time! Plus, I pass up no excuse to see Wishes!

Definitely go after the parade! Or twice! Ah! If it's the friend I know be sure to say hello! Hahaha. Meets are always better when there's two characters I find, there's just more ability to interact and it makes it better!

YES! He is across from the bathrooms I believe, in that area somewhere, and Wendy is with him for summer for sure, I'm hoping she goes into the fall as well!

AHHHHHH Maddie si the greatest! It is a pretty amazing ceiling! It's gonna be awesome for you guys to eat there!

Lol!! I mean really, where else would I even eat at MK anymore?! Lawl! It's going to be an awesome one! I'm super excited!

Thanks! And I'll write your vote down

Thanks! And it's only day 1 of our MK days! Lawl. Awesome!! And hey, I'll never pass up a time to go to MK, I will always be okay with going there instead of somewhere else! I'll pm you my number and be sure to send me a text when you get into MK that day! (this is of course if you have an iphone as I'll be on airplane mode but thanks to the wireless I can get imessages still]

Totally agreed!! MK is my favorite favorite place.

I just sent you a PM back! I can't wait! I'm so excited that so many of our days match up!

 

[cfw213]

I can't think of a better way to start your trip than morning EMH at MK!! my guess for the next meal is sci fi!

 

[ILGoofy]

“Hello everyone, and welcome aboard the Walt Disney World transportation system!” You best have read that in your best Motor Coach Man voice!

You didn't even need to tell me. I even felt the blast of freezing cold AC you get whenever you get on the bus.

 

[Pluto0809]

Your MK day sounds wonderful. Well, any day at MK sounds wonderful no matter what you do!

I actually read the update on Friday but I didn't reply because I wanted to think about the next ADR over the weekend. Got to keep up my perfect score! I do remember where you guys ate when you went last year mainly because it was not the best experience. Since it's lunch this time, I'm going to go with Sci Fi as my guess.

 

[katt789]

Heck yes! Best ever!! Awesome!! So excited! We'll definitely end up running into each other a few times! I'm super excited for MNSSHP that we'll all be at!

It's amazing! I'm super excited to start off like that! And your vote is written down!

 

[katt789]

Aahahaha....now that it's finally warm up here every time I step onto the bus I expect to get that blast of AC and I get all confused when it doesn't happen, and then I remember that I'm not in Disney....

Your MK day sounds wonderful. Well, any day at MK sounds wonderful no matter what you do!

Ahaha, exactly!

Totes fair! Gotta keep it up right?! At least I gave you guys all a lot of time to think haha. Ugh, last year was not fun, although I do want to try that place again and hope for something better!!

Vote taken into account!

 

[lvcourtneyy]

Heck yes! Best ever!! Awesome!! So excited! We'll definitely end up running into each other a few times! I'm super excited for MNSSHP that we'll all be at!

AH I know! I can't believe how well that worked out! AND I read on touringplans that Sept 17 is expected to be the lightest crowd day for MNSSHP! Although that actually makes it stranger that we're all going that day but who's complaning? Not me!

Also, I just read on wdwmagic that Space Mountain is closing intermittently in September and I wanted to cry BUT apparently they really mean intermittently, it says it's only gonna be closed from:

September 3-5
September 10-12
and September 23-26

I really was so sad for a few minutes!

It's gonna be GREAT! SO PUMPED! AH, I can't wait to see everyone in costumes, especially the kids! Ah! My favorite was a kid last year I saw dressed up as Ray from PaTF, so adorable.

AAAHHHRRGRGFSFJ It's totes closed over our first MK day....good thing we'll be back, and hey, that means one less thing to do in EMH, and we can just focus on Fantasyland...

I've been monitoring flights for months now, waiting for them to drop, and making sure they don't go up anymore than where they were. So yesterday, I checked expedia, and they were down to:

$497!!!



I haven't seen them that cheap since Sept '11 when they were $398. I was thinking I'd have to pay $540! Naturally, I booked it right away when I saw that fare! I got myself on the same flights coming in as Anne and Mom, but the flight out is on a different carrier, and a couple of hours later, so I'll get a little more playtime! Yay! (But lets be serious, we're all hoping that I'll just head to work after our breakfast ADR!)

I spent a couple of hours over my weekend reading up on the KTTKT, and officially booked that! I didn't give myself any spoilers, but know we'll be riding a few rides, eating at CHH, and hoping that we get something awesome in place of Jungle Cruise as it'll be closed I'm obviously most excited for the utilidoors and the seeing the parade stuff backstage.

And while we're talking about parades, my audition is NEXT WEEK, ONE WEEK FROM TODAY!! The girl I met on tumblr and spent time in the parks with last trip, Amanda is going to these ones too! Since we now know the other person isn't a huge creeper or anything, we're sharing a hotel off property!!

I spent literally all day Tuesday watching countless youtube videos on Disney auditions, many of which were of course, from people who hadn't made it past the first round and were full of nonsense, but I did find some good ones in there!

Having another Disney marathon today, Aladdin, Pocahontas, Peter Pan and Princess and the Frog! Yay!!

Hope you all have a fantastic weekend!!

 

[monkey30]

YAHOOO, good luck on your audition!

The tour looks great. We have decided to hold off for a bit on that one.

Good job on the price! We booked and it was $807! But we were able to use our Westjet card and my flight was only $99 with the compainion flight, and then we paid for over 600 on DH with reward $$! Sometimes it pays to use those!

 

[Pluto0809]

GOOD LUCK!!!! You need to make it so I have an excuse to come down and watch!

Awesome prices for flights. The ones for my October trip aren't too bad but since I'm still not 100% sure that the trip is going to happen, I'm kind of holding off a bit. Everything is looking great at the moment but I won't know for sure till probably the end of August. I hate not knowing!

 

[DisneyKid4Life]

Yay on the flight!!

You are going to LOVE the Keys tour. I expect you'll do Pirates in place of Jungle Cruise. I've heard they do both. Plus one other...
And YAY Utilidors. I can't wait for you to see them!!

How awesome to be able to share a room. That's really cool. Where did you end up settling on?

 

[lvcourtneyy]

Yay for booking flights!! And glad they were at a good price!

Ah the KTTKT sounds exciting (and it's a pretty funny acronym to type )! I can't wait to hear all about it afterwards!

AH 1 week omg! In case I don't talk to you before then (which, let's be honest, I suck at keeping up on here so it's totally possible ), I wish you the best of luck! I'm sure you're gonna do amazing!!

Disney marathons are the best way to spend a day!

 

[ronnmel]

Isn't it sad how up here in Canada we get excited when the flight drops to that kind of price when it the States they would find it outrageously high?

Good luck with the audition!!
