AKV, here we come. June 1-8 11/15.. Finally BACK!

[Lynn5700]

TSM! I love it! I have to beat everybody cause I'm the only one going who's ever been on it before. I will be shamed if someone beats me! Kick Tim's butt this time!!

I think a lot of people feel that way about AK. There's isn't a whole lot to do. I like AK but I can't make an entire day out of that park.

HAHA. I am sure you will beat everybody, lol. I do like AK. I like doing the safari, Dinosaur, Primeval Whirl, and EE. But you are right, it does not take the whole day. I think we are going to just go on our whatever day, which is a Saturday.

Hey Lynn! I have ready your other PTR/TR but don't think I ever really commented much. We are heading down May 30-June 6 and it looks like we have some of the same parks planned... though we are not hopping this year! I have never not hopped! Your first night in epcot we will be drinking around the world and have some pretty cute homemade shirts on lol

What are you going to school for?

I look forward to reading more and seeing the TR...we may do one ourselves (I never finished our honeymoon one) because we are going with my friend and her husband so her and I may do one. We will see!

 

[glennbo123]

Do you have FB? I can add you as a friend and you can see the pics. OMG. It's so bad, lol. I could post them on here, but they look nasty. That is what I was doing. I was doing 3 miles, and when I made it to the first mile, I fell.

No, I have resisted Facebook's pull, so far. That's okay, I'll take your word for it. I worry about falling sometimes because I get so tired I don't feel like I'm in complete control...if I stubbed my foot or twisted my ankle or something, that'd be it.

Hi!! Your signature pic is beautiful! Ooh, cute!!! What design did you do? OOh, and have a glass or Rosa Regale when you get to Italy for me, please. Well, like I told everybody else, if you see me, please say hello. I am easy to spot because of the red hair, lol.

I am going to school to become a math teacher I love math. Oh and I will become K-12 certified.

You should do one! It is hard to find the time, though.

I worried as well. Now I am a little freaked because I do not want to fall again. Hopefully I don't. One of my fears is falling on my face and losing a tooth, lol. It could have been worse, so I am thankful. I have ice on it and took some motrin. The swelling seems to be going down. It is just going to be hard for me to rest the next 2 days. I am hoping I can run again on Sunday before I go to a wedding.

OOh, does anybody know how to turn my TR link in my signature into one that you can click on? I forget how to do it. Thanks.

Thanks! We made shirts for the girls and guys. I will have to post pictures of them~ Is Rosa Regale wine? I don't like wine that much but my friend and I may try it if there is nothing else we want.

I love math too!! I went to school for elementary education and concentration in math. I teach 3rd grade now but am only certified k-6. I wanted to extend my cert up to 8th but being where I am now I do NOT want to teach above 3rd grade in this district lol. Good luck!

When your in the Edit Signature part of your User CP, you can highlight the URL you have in your signature and copy it. Keeping the URL highlighted, click on the globe in the editing toolbar....paste the URL there and click on OK. That should make the URL in your signature active.

 

[klacey1]

Ooo, definitely go to Pizza Planet-- it's the only DHS CS we think is good. All of the other options are not so hot. Good luck beating Tim-- last time, DBF nearly tripled my score, but my accuracy was better, so I tried rubbing that in his face...didn't work
I cannot BELIEVE the France pictures-- I remember from your FB how cold it was, but there's something about seeing people in parkas and scarves in Disney that's just crazy!!

 

[Cat0727]

Aww you got to see Marie! She's so cute!

 

[Mycuteboyz3]

Yay!! I'm so happy you're doing this PTR. Looking forward to all of your plans.

 

[mansionterror]

I will definately say hello if I spot you Lynn!! I love those pics from France in WS...it really looks like people on Holiday in France during the winter. We love Marie!! Colby met her in that hallway outside the character connection on our Thanksgiving trip and we were so excited because we had never seen her before.

Oooo...have fun at SWWs. We went last year and it was so much fun getting to meet the characters. Look for the Jawa traders they are very funny, just make sure you have something to trade!

Okay, cool! She is really cute. OOh, I am hoping to find Thumper in AK. I have seen people posting pictures with Thumper in the AK. So cute!!!

Tim is going to love SWW. I am excited for him. I will tell Tim about the Jawa traders.

Yeah! It is, but trust me, it is soooo good. I do not like wine either. It is a sparkling wine. That is the only wine I drink. Have a glass with the chocolate they offer.

I bet third grade is a good age. I wanted to do elementary at first. We will see though. If I just teach math, I will be in middle or high. I will teach wherever I can get a job. Hopefully, by the time I am done college, the crap going on in NJ with education will be done and over with. I seriously do not like over governor at all.

Pizza Planet is our favorite. I agree, it is the best CS in DHS. I like Starring Rolls, but we usually just go there for breakfast in the morning.

HAHA, I have beaten Tim in accuracy before. I know. It is insanely cold.

Aww you got to see Marie! She's so cute!

I know. That was my first time seeing her in Disney.

Hi Lynne! Good to 'see' you back!
I actually beat my DH at TSM this year and he was sooo not happy. He's such a baby. We had to go back later and play again and since it was his birthday I 'let' him win!

Have a magical vacation!!

 

[Mycuteboyz3]

I'm all caught up now. Your plans look great. Thanks to all your great reviews on Biergarten we tried it for the first time last week and loved it.

 

[tinkabella627]

Ok... I will maybe try it if there is nothing else I can settle for haha. If nothing else my friend and I maybe will share it. I can deal with half a wine.

Third grade has become my favorite. I was originally hired for 6th grade math. I'll tell you 6th and above does have some perks... especially if you teach one subject! I would have only taught math and maybe 1 advanced or 1 resource math I imagine which is extremely easy to plan for when you teach the same thing all day. But... something happens after 3rd grade and the kids become so awful (here) that I will never go above 3rd unless I move. Idk what is going on in NJ with education but I know it is rough all over. I know it is hard to get a job up your way (I am originally from Buffalo NY...jobs are hard to get) so good luck!! One thing I will say though, no matter how bad you want a job...don't settle for any teaching job. Don't get into a bad district or something that will ruin you. I am in a district that once you are in it is hard to get out because 1. the pay is less everywhere else down here and 2. a lot of other districts don't want teachers from ours bc it is not a good district (low scores and all that, no matter how hard we work).

 

[Charleston Princess]

Tim doesn't like Animal Kingdom??? How can this be???

Dinner at Chefs de France sounds great!

You will have a great time at Star Wars Weekends! Make sure you get there at rope drop so you can watch the Stormtroopers up on the gates. They are a hoot!

Haha, that's too funny.

Good!!! I am glad you guys loved it! I love the potato leek soup!!

Well if you do, let me know what you thought about it. I swear it does not taste like wine.

I know what you mean.. there is no way I would work in Camden or Philly. I will try my hardest to get into a good district....even if I have to move out of state. I don't care at this point. I am just so sick of doing what I do now.

LOL, he thinks it's boring, but he loves AKV. I like AK.

We love Chefs.

YAY! I cannot wait. We will be there bright and early. It is an EMH morning the day we go.

OOh and do any of you know what the summer nightastic special pass-holder only event is?? I never got the email. In the Mickey Monitor, it said to check your email, but I never got it.

 

[BippityBoo]

HI!! I read one of your past TR and loved it! Happy to see that you are back. I am in school right now getting my certification to teach, so I understand the lack of DIS time! I am so glad to be done and back on the boards

I am so happy that you ran the marathon in the snow!! We were there at that time and it was SOOO cold! I hope to run the marathon some day as well. The metal alone is worth it

Join my PTR if you would like...we are going at Christmastime this year!

Can't wait to see what you do in WDW Glad you are back!!!

 

[Lynn5700]

I finally got around to pre-ordering the photopass CD. I thought I would share a couple photopass pics from our January trip.

On our first day, we went straight to the AK to see the characters dressed up in their Christmas costumes.

Minnie looked adorable.

Goofy was hilarious. We had a lot of fun with him...

He decided to sort of make out with me, I was cracking up at first. He totally surprised me when he dipped me, haha.

And then Goofy and I decided to run off together, lol!

It was really cute.

Here we are seeing the Castle all lit up with the icicles for the first time. It is breathtaking in person.

It's getting late, so I will post some more pics tomorrow, and I should have Day 4 plans up soon.
