A Pre Thanksgiving/Christmas Vacation, Our First Split Stay & Our 5th Trip to Disney!

Check out this cute dessert my wife and her friend got last night at the park. It was filled with delicious pumpkin mousse.

Sea, that mug is so cute, and the mousse...wow, I could really eat some of that right now! Looks delicious!
 
In ONE MONTH from today - Nov 11 - We will enjoy a nice relaxing morning at POR. Have lunch at the food court. Head to MK around 2:00 or whenever we feel like it. Spend the rest of the day there! Have dinner at either Casey's or Cosmic Ray's. Hopefully Cosmic Ray's! Maybe watch Spectro. Definitely watch Wishes! pixiedust:

Just think Shelly...tomorrow will be LESS than 1 month...you'll be marking off the time in weeks!! :cool1: -Sounds like a perfect, relaxing day you have planned. Cosmic Ray's is a fav CS of ours (we've never eaten at Casey's) and Spectro & Wishes are both must do's for my troup.

During our last 2 trips (Nov08 & Apr08), we went a little commando...ummm... touring styles - not type of dress, :rotfl2: and we were all SO tired at the end of every day. This time I'm trying to work in some rest time. My DH is NOT a morning person, so I think he'll be very happy if we have a couple of sleep-in mornings! You've inspired me...I'll tell my DH to thank you!:flower3:
 
Don't let 'em get you down Shelly! I love hearing your *1 month from now* reports! Although I'm glad you're leaving out the bathroom breaks! ;)

I love the finds at the Character Warehouse :thumbsup2 Where is it located? I may have to venture up to PA for a little shopping!

Yes, everyday is closer and closer! :yay:

Glad to hear you only do the commando touring! :lmao: Yep, I must incorporate some rest time into our plans to keep the DH happy! :goodvibes

Glad you are enjoying the 1 month reports!! Yes, I will definitely leave out the bathroom breaks - pre and post trip! :rotfl:
 

Another chilly day here in PA. I sat through 2 soccer games yesterday with 2 coats on, gloves on, and a blanket over me and I was still cold. It was about 50, cloudy, and WINDY! :sad2: Yuck, it's too early for this. :mad:

So. . . . On to happier things. . .


In ONE MONTH from today - Nov 12 - We will enjoy a restful morning at the resort. Head over to the Poly for a late breakfast at Kona and then take the monorail to Epcot, where we will spend the rest of the day. We can't wait to ride Soarin and Test Track and do lots of other fun stuff! We will have dinner at my favorite - LeCellier! Then watch IllumiNations.
 
I have a question for anyone who knows - How many people can sit together in the Haunted Mansion ride??? I know, I can't believe we have never been on it before. I really want to ride it and DS10 says the only way he will go on it is if we can all ride together and he can sit in the middle! To which DS8 replied - it's probably just 2-3 people in a seat, so yeah you can sit in the middle of mom and the ghost!! :lmao:

:eek: I cant believe you've never been on it - its my fave ride! You will love it :wizard: I think 3 people is probably max - that being 2 adults and a child but we've only ever been 2 adults so cant 100% confirm that. You're maybe best doing it in 2's so that the ghost can sit between you ;)

Thanks JoJo! That's what I was afraid of. He probably won't do it if he can't sit between 2 adults and we can't do just 2 adults and one kid because we have the 2 kids! So we would have to go 2 and 2. So we'll see. . . DS8 says he is going to ride it with me. . . so I may finally get to ride it after all. Who knows!
 
WHAT!!!! I can't believe my eyes! You have never been on HM?

What is up with that!

Seriously now, two adults can fit comfortably in the ride. 3 if one is a child.

Illuminations is my absolute favorite :cloud9:

We were allowed all 4 of us last time but keep in mind that my little ones are littler than yours. Is littler a word? DH and I sat on the outside with the kids both in the middle. She made her way onto our laps during the ride though :rolleyes1

He will be fine with you sweetie - the cars are high backed and curved, so you can sort of sit right back into them and snuggle, so he doesnt have to be affraid, you can keep hold of him in a big bear hug kinda way :hug:
 
It isn't that scary of a ride. It is more of comical scary than reach-out-and-grab-you scary. Does that make sense?

Congrats on 12,000 posts Shelly!

You have me beat by about 4 to 1, proving that you have more to say than me! LOL! :lmao:

Sea
 
Shelly! You just went over 12,000 posts!!! :worship:

Dang and I missed it!!!:mad:

Oh well, still calls for a party don't you think?! :banana:

12,000 posts!!! :cheer2::woohoo::cool1::yay:


WHAT!!!! I can't believe my eyes! You have never been on HM?

What is up with that!

I know. :guilty: And I so want to ride it!!

12,000 oh my you are a chatty girl!

Who me? :hyper2:

Sure, we'll say that littler is a word. :rotfl:

Hmm. . . do you think we could talk them into letting us all squeeze into one? My kids aren't all that big for 8 & 10. Actually we were just at the doctor this morning - 47 & 61 pounds. . . . Maybe we'll give it a try! We could always ask I guess, what's the worst that can happen, they tell us no and we take the chicken exit. . .:eek: :laughing:

Thanks for the info.:hug: I will tell him!

Yes, that makes perfect sense to me. Not so much to DS though. :confused3:rotfl:

Thanks Sea! :goodvibes

Hey Shelly,

Have you seen the latest pictures that were posted of Old Key West? If not, here's the link: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?p=33921550#post33921550

Thought it might get you in the Disney mood.....like we ever get out of it.:lmao:

Yep, I saw them! :goodvibes OKW looks so bright and beautiful. Can't wait! :cool1:
 
Hey-
Our kids are almost the same size- and we've only been able to sit three max in a HM car. The kids actually want to ride by themselves- but the three of them together take up the whole thing.

I can't believe you haven't ridden this yet. :goodvibes

What happened to the Rock and Roll hand gesture dude's courage?:goodvibes

LOL- the first time I rode this was on my first trip to MK- I remember it very very well- I was 2 years old. :)

He can do it.:cheer2:

And if he can't --- send him and dad out to get some popcorn at the cart right outside the entrance while you and the little one tackle it.:cloud9:

Jo

PS--- has he ridden TOT?????? It is NOTHING like TOT.
TOT is much more scarier than HM. (As far as the Ghost scenes and such-).

DS10 does high and fast and absolutely loves RNRC, but he does not do scary. :confused: I'm really trying to help him get over this.

Nope, he's never been on TOT. :sad2: Not interested. DS8 and I rode it once. I really wasn't all that impressed. :confused3
