I've hit the 10-day mark WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This morning I SWEAR my car smelled like the monorail!! Not like poo, either. I mean like how it SHOULD smell, or how I remember it smelled when I was a kid!!
Last year at the same time it was in the mid 80's. Oh well, being from Texas we are somewhat used to the heat. The way I handle the Texas heat is to stay indoors with the A/C running and cringe when the electric bill comes! 
AAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm so excited that I can't keep still!!!!! We are leaving for the World in just about 9 hours!!!! EEEEEKKKK!!!!!!
The animals are at the kennel, the bags are just about packed, we've had dinner and I'm about to get DD in the shower and to bed. I have to wait for DH and DMIL to get home before we can start loading the car, but I am WAY excited!!!
I'M TOO EXCITED TO SLEEP!!!!!!!!!!!!
It was the best vacation to Disney. The AKL was absolutely perfect. The construction noise was very little. They were working on the new resort, so the construction was way of in the distance. At the pool, we could hardly hear any construction if any. The staff was wonderful. At check in, one of the cast members said that the left side of the hotel looking over the savanah and costruction sites were almost all close. The animals were out and roaming throughout the day and were not effected by the construction. The Ostrich area had no animals due to training the animals to go to a new barn. If any one had any doubts about staying here, put them aside. My husband who is never comfortable with any hotel, said he could stay here forever. The black tarps were still up in the main lobby on the 5th and 6th floor, but I did not see or hear any construction. I hope this report will be helpful to those who were worried about the construction. The resort wes perfect
(my husband often looks at me and says, "You're goofy." To which I reply, "No I'm not, I'm Pluto!"), a big old pink and purple flower 
and Sandy from Spongebob (my children have Patrick and Spongebob respectively. They thought it TRES cool that I got Sandy!)
Six days here too!! I am also already having problems sleeping. We are bringing our nieces, and I am getting reports that they are bouncing and asking a million questions. Which is kind of funny, because neither of their parental units have been there! 
He wants to wait until 2009 right now. (of course last year, he said that he didn't want to go this year and changed his mind) So, all of you who decided to do bounce back--enjoy! I'll be there in spirit.
