A Ten Day Ride on A Magic Camel - Almost Finished Trip Report

[Laneychris]

great report

I agree with Scott-- a cute cool table!

Jill is looking forward to the meet, also.

I'm sure the wild girls had a great night last night. I haven't checked in to see how the weather is treating them. I hope they can go to MNSSHP tomorrow night.

That's actually my latest debate -- do we do MNSSHP next month? We did it last year, and I don't know if we want to do it again so soon -- but now I have begun to think that it wouldn't be an October trip without the HM and the gravediggers with their cool shovels!

Jill called and said the doctor reported she is carrying a healthy little peanut, so that's good to know. She's already told her it's a boy. We'll see if her prediction is right. Disney World thinks it's a boy, too, because on our summer reservation, when I put down who would be in the second room, I said Jill and John and Brooklyn and an infant who was yet to arrive. On the confirmation, they have it listed as Mr. Unknown Infant. So, between Disney and the doctor, maybe they know something we don't. I ordered up two girls first and then a boy, but Mother Nature may have a different order!

Is Disney ever wrong??? I am going with "baby pirate"!

Cute ice cream cone tables!

Awesome BC pics--I really love the decor of that place. I've eaten at Cape May for breakfast but never dinner..it was good both times, i'll have to try their dinner one day

 

[SwansLoveDisney]

I didn't even think about Epcot closing due to crowds. That would surely stink if we couldn't get back in!

Yay for a healthy baby! It's so funny that disney and the doctor both think it's a boy! Will you find out the gender before the baby is born?

 

[Happy Elf]

Glad to hear Jill has a healthy peanut growing! I say it's a boy! Baby boy's are wonderful! Of course, I may be a bit biased!

I love the ice cream cone table! So cute! Neat to see where the Clam bake is...I keep thinking we need to try that out sometime!

 

[brookelizabeth]

I liked your umbrella and pool pics-it looks like a really neat area. It was fun to see the inside of Beaches n Cream too-I've seen LOTS of food pics from there, but never the decor, it's adorable! I am craving a cheeseburger right now---we are headed to Red Robin for bugers tomorrow, so I gotta hold off until then!

 

[hollyluvsdisney]

I hope your weather is good. How many Disney trips a year does a meteorologists salary allow?

Probably more than my current salary allows!

The chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting at Sunshine Seasons was really good, in case you've never tried it there. Just for future reference.

Nope, I've never tried it before. Thanks for the recommendation. We'll definitely be trying it when we go to SS.

Jill called and said the doctor reported she is carrying a healthy little peanut, so that's good to know.

That's great news!!

Hi MeMom,
We re-booked for 12/13 - 12/20

Biff is too nervous thinking he will be stuck in the room the entire time. His friend in Miami put fear into him so we re-booked.

 

[TCKK]

Love the cone table. Never been to Cape May. Note to self "check Cape May out for next trip"

 

[BrooklynnsMommy]

I'm sold too!!! How far is the walk from Epcot to Beaches & Cream? I wonder when is a good time to go so its not too busy... maybe after our morning at Downtown Disney we can go then? hmmmm, might be better...

I keep meaning to ask you MeMom (& Jill of course!) when is your new addition due??? I am due 25 April 09 - I think I am a bit behind Jill.

We have a scan (do you call them ultrasounds?) on Tuesday to check our little bean is ok. If you don't mind, I might share the little picture with you!

Can't wait for more updates!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Julie xxx

My official due date is April 11th. Please feel free to share pictures of your little one. I hope to post mine sometime this week. I have to scan it first. The tech took a 4d picture so it is a really good one.

 

[BrooklynnsMommy]

I didn't even think about Epcot closing due to crowds. That would surely stink if we couldn't get back in!

Yay for a healthy baby! It's so funny that disney and the doctor both think it's a boy! Will you find out the gender before the baby is born?

As long as the peanut cooperates we will be finding out. My 20 week appointment when they would do it is the Monday we leave for Disney in November so I could do some shopping while I'm there. We will have to wait and see.

 

[BrooklynnsMommy]

Dawn and Erica sent me a text last night. they were at the halloween party and having fun. They definitely had those "we are really in Disney World" smiles in their picture. Hopefully they will have good weather the rest of the time and a safe trip back.

I hope he/she cooperates! It would be so much fun to shop for all the little onesies and gear while in WDW. Even if the peanut doesn't cooperate, I bet you can find quite a few 'gender neutral' items as well. It will be fun to see all your loot!

 

[MeMom]

Jill and I talked to Dawn and Erica a few hours ago. They were in Animal Kingdom. That coincides with our next installment, which follows our little trip to Beaches and Cream, so in honor of them being there today, I'll share some of our day at Animal Kingdom. We're still on the 30th of June.

Cute little turtle helping to hold up a building.

Outside shop decor.

Inside the dressing room, I saw this picture.

I wasn't trying on clothes. I was just being nosy about what it looked like in there.

Things to buy for the stylish wild animal lover in your life.

Things to buy for the stylish safari guide in your life.

We didn't buy any of it. The plates were cute, and we might get some for an AK party someday, but we didn't on this trip.


Things to buy if you love all things Disney.

Something to buy if you love Mary Poppins.

Nicole?

Since there was very little wait,

we went to see It's Tough to be a Bug.

Brooklynn not only saw everything in bug vision, she saw everything in upside down bug vision.

Next up, hop on board for a two week trip to the African savannah.

So, let's recap:
Erica and Dawn are at Animal Kingdom.
Glenda had a 9:40 flight out of Baltimore, so she's there.
I am at home doing laundry and Dising. Hmmmm...

Jill got an awesome picture of the baby. As little as he/she is, you can already see so clearly that it is a little person!

 

[declansdad]

If it make you feel better, I just mowed the lawn and watched the minicot videos on YouTube.

Great Pics! (as always)

I went to Walmart today and while I stood in line, I pretended I was standing in line for Splash Mountain.

Can't wait to see the ultrasound pics!

 

[kathleen27]

Beaches and Cream looks great. We have not been there yet.
I love ice cream, and so do my kids, so we'll have to go sometime.

That ice cream cone table is adorable.

And Brooklynn looks so cute with her upside down bug glasses.

Ultrasounds are so exciting. I loved having pictures of the kids before they were even born.

 

[MeMom]

such a cute table.

Yep, very creative.

great report

Welcome to the trip report. Feel free to make yourself at home and chime in often!

I agree with Scott-- a cute cool table!

Disney creativity. I could be happy decorating Disney resorts. Wonder how you get that job?

That's actually my latest debate -- do we do MNSSHP next month? We did it last year, and I don't know if we want to do it again so soon -- but now I have begun to think that it wouldn't be an October trip without the HM and the gravediggers with their cool shovels!

Oh, I definitely would want to do it again! If I had the money and the time, I would be doing it again!

Awesome BC pics--I really love the decor of that place. I've eaten at Cape May for breakfast but never dinner..it was good both times, i'll have to try their dinner one day

We've scheduled the character breakfast for the day we leave. That'll give us one last big Disney fix before we leave. Plus, with the doing away with other character meals, like Garden Grill lunch and Liberty Tree Tavern, I want to try it while they still have it. That could be one of those not so popular ones that finds itself under the knife someday, so that's why I want to do it.

I didn't even think about Epcot closing due to crowds. That would surely stink if we couldn't get back in!

Yay for a healthy baby! It's so funny that disney and the doctor both think it's a boy! Will you find out the gender before the baby is born?

We'll come up with a place that works for all of us at once, hopefully.

I love the ice cream cone table! So cute! Neat to see where the Clam bake is...I keep thinking we need to try that out sometime!

I want her to have both boys and girls, so whatever it is, it'll be great!

I liked your umbrella and pool pics-it looks like a really neat area. It was fun to see the inside of Beaches n Cream too-I've seen LOTS of food pics from there, but never the decor, it's adorable! I am craving a cheeseburger right now---we are headed to Red Robin for bugers tomorrow, so I gotta hold off until then!

Did you get your good cheeseburger?

Probably more than my current salary allows!

Ditto for my teacher's salary.

Hi MeMom,
We re-booked for 12/13 - 12/20

Biff is too nervous thinking he will be stuck in the room the entire time. His friend in Miami put fear into him so we re-booked.

When we talked to Dawn and Erica, they said it had rained just a little yesterday on the way to the party, but it stopped and ended up being a great night. They said it was sunny and hot today.

I will say that when we went last Christmas, the weather was the best it has ever been for us. Hopefully, it will be the same for you.

Love the cone table. Never been to Cape May. Note to self "check Cape May out for next trip"

Like I said, we're checking it out while it still exists.

I hope he/she cooperates! It would be so much fun to shop for all the little onesies and gear while in WDW. Even if the peanut doesn't cooperate, I bet you can find quite a few 'gender neutral' items as well. It will be fun to see all your loot!

That's what Jill is hoping - to know before the trip so she can buy some clothes. If not, we'll keep our fingers crossed for the March trip to happen and Brooklynn and I can shop for her.

If it make you feel better, I just mowed the lawn and watched the minicot videos on YouTube.

Well, yes. Yes, it does. Thanks for easing my pain.

I went to Walmart today and while I stood in line, I pretended I was standing in line for Splash Mountain.

Can't wait to see the ultrasound pics!

Did you have the cashier throw a bottle of water on you as you went through?

The ultrasound is amazing!

Beaches and Cream looks great. We have not been there yet.

Brooklynn almost always put any sunglasses on upside down!

Back when I had kids, they didn't do ultrasounds unless there was a problem. I think it is so neat that you get to see your baby's face so early.
