Oct we will be at VWL, our 1st trip staying there. Did you like it? our kids are 1 and 4?? We wll be there Oct 6-12--you???

I know I'm
but we loved WL so much we stayed there twice. We got a good rate on the Poly for October and we stayed there last September and we loved it too! My DD thinks it's the greatest and DS loves the monorail. I would love to have DVC at WL though.

My DD loves GF and wants to stay there someday. You will probably miss the monorail but at least you can boat to MK or Contemporary and hop the monorail. Where in NJ are you. I'm from Brick/Pt. Pleasant area, but we moved to Knoxville TN almost 2 years ago.

Hi Blayne
I am glad that I caught your TR and am looking forward to many more installments, you have a talent for turning a phrase and pulling your reader in, I will even go so far as to put you up there with UtahMama.
You and Todd are too cute, you could be wedding caketop models. Your love story is so sweet. My DH who I refer to in my TR as the Ogre is actually my knight in shining armor, he rescued me from a violent marriage, sorry, could I have gotten any more
I love the excitement you had for your first trip, I completely understand that feeling of happiness ready to burst your guts out from the insides I felt myself skipping right along with you. Your pictures are great, now you get to relive your vacation as you scrapbook them. I'm sorry you felt let down by world of memories, I did too. I get alot of my disney stuff from ScrappinDaisy.com
Can't wait for your next chapter, Lot's of people say that TR's makes them miss Disney, and I agree, but yours makes me feel like I am there with you, so keep it coming.

I normally don't read trip reports very often because I can't stop reading the trip report LOL!! I just started reading yours and am up to page 9! I am very excited for your trip, even though I know it has already happened, I am so excited for you, but I can't help to read everyones comments as well

 

[medicgirl911]

OK I finally caught up to current LOL! I finally had to force myself to start skimming the contents or I would be up til 2 am! Thanks for posting the pics from Earl Of Sandwich, we ate there our last day at WDW last year. Its a good thing we didn't eat there early in the trip or I would have had to of gone back there every day We also stayed at pop in the 50's buildings and we were so exhausted at night er never heard a peep from anyone!!! keep it coming,,I can't wait to read more!!

 

[dizchick]

Great trip report! Can't wait to read more. I'm sure you guys are already thinking about when you'd like to go back. I'm telling you, the place is addicting!

Hey everybody! Well since you guys are VERY impatient (I secretly LOVE IT), I woke up EXTRA early so that I could give you guys something to read today while I am at horrible Joann Fabrics. I hopefully will be LEAVING Joann Fabrics soon because I'm trying to get a job at a daycare instead. Anyways - that was off topic. Here is Part 1 of our Valentines Day at Epcot!

I woke up at 6:00 AM (of course, the time I wake up for school - i was NOT getting any rest on this vacation!) and got up to get ready before our Stitch wake up call. My first night sleep was fine, if not a bit cramped. THEY NEED TO MAKE THOSE BEDS BIGGER, FOR GODS SAKES! So I got up and boy was I cheery! I was READY for this day! I donned my new red Disney shirt - Todd and I had bought matching ones the previous day in Downtown Disney just for this Valentines Day occasion (except we ended up living in them for the rest of the week!) I got ready and straightened my hair nicely (little did I know that the humidity would KILL it RRRRR!) After that, I played with the camera a little bit till Todd got up!

We got our wake up call. Very cute. Todd got up and got ready, I asked if we had everything - Todd says yes, so we were ready to go!

Oh what is that on Todd's shoulder you ask? Is that the baggallini that I overnighted because I wanted it so bad. Well the answer is yes! And did I wear it all this trip. NOPE! I made Todd wear it. The couple times that I did try to take it, he would get upset and say he felt "naked". But this is completely off topic sorry!

We walked down to the Pop Century foodcourt. It was pretty dead since it was only 7:00 AM. We spent a little bit choosing what to eat. There were A LOT of choices! Well .. we made the WRONG ones! I got the breakfast pizza and Todd got the breakfast wrap and we bought refillable mugs and both got apple juices.

They were absolutely DISGUSTING! Yuck! My pizza.. eww I cringe just thinking about it. It was HORRIBLE. Gross! I didn't eat mine, but Todd said his was "okay" and ate it. I tasted his and STILL thought it was horrible.

After we "ATE", we headed outside and stood at the bus stop. We were the only ones in line. We were SO excited!

When the bus showed up we were so excited! We were the only people on the bus, it was our first park day, and we were going to be there for open!! YAY!

When we got there, the park was dead. We walked right through bag check and right up to the front of the gate. We were 45 minutes early and I was very excited. When I first glanced the Epcot globe I was in awe. Everything was going perfect and I couldn't wait to get into the park and start the day. We browsed in the gift shop. We were so delighted, we were practically skipping around. After a couple minutes, we decided to go back and just be the FIRST people in line to go into Epcot. I said to Todd, "Get our Keys out so we can just hold them and wait for them to open the gates!" Todd pulls out MY key, and then.. ohh whats that? Todd doesn't have his key? After I ASKED him prior to leaving, and after he TOLD me that he had it. Oh boy. Blayne was NOT to happy. In fact I basically through a tizzy fit, saying that my "perfect valentines day was ruined" and "happy bleeping valentines day". Yeah, so I was a LITTLE bit dramatic - oh well. I was PISSED! So if anyone saw someone being COMPLETELY undisneylike and storming out of the park, ahead of her boyfriend, shaking her head and mumbling under her breath things that I would rather not say outloud - well .... that wasnt me... . Okay I lied - it WAS me! I was so angry at him. So yep, we dragged ourselves back to the Pop Century bus and since we had been an HOUR early to the park, we had to wait 20 minutes until the bus pulled up. We rode back to Pop in silence. When we got off Todd sprinted to the room and I got back into the now LONG line for Epcot.

The Epcot bus shows up, but no Todd. I step out of line in anger.

Will Todd ever show up and will we EVER get to Epcot.. and will our whole day be ruined? Well you will just have to tune in next time because I must go to work now!

 

[Emmaline Lola]

Well, count me as a mom reading this living vicariously through you! And I live in Orlando and take my dd2 year old to WDW 3-4 a week! But I can't get enough of your trip report!

You guys are so cute! Can't wait to hear about your valentine's day, even with it's "delayed" start (I would have been angry too!).............

Great trip report!!!!

 

[tinkerbell87512]

awww Blayne your so good waking up early just for us!!!! I hope your day at work isnt too bad!

I know what u mean about the breakfast pizza....yuck is right! From now on i stick to the POP waffles.

Your matching shirts are soooo cute! Todd is such a good sport and thats so funny about that bagillini "he felt naked without it"

That stinks that he forgot his key but atleast he remembered before the park actually opened so you had time to go back. I swear what would guys do with out us girls. haha I hope your valentines day wasnt ruined I cant wait to read more!!

 

[boysmom5150]

You guys are so so cute together. Leave it to a man to forget something, even after you ask them if they have everything they need.(at least in our home thats what its like).Thanks for getting up extra early to write this and give us all our fix. Problem is, I dont know how long I can wait for the next part as you have left us hangin here. WHERE IS TODD!!!!WHATS TAKING HIM SO LONG!!!As Im sure you have figured out I am a very impatient person so if you could maybe pull an all-niter, possibly go to school late tomorrow, or call in sick to work and get the next part out to us that would be SO great.
PS...Im sure Todd makes this little boo-boo up to you and that is going to make for some great reading .I CANT WAIT!!!
You are doing so great writing this, your style is so funny and witty, I love it. Also, LOVE the pics. Keep it all coming.

Never trust a man if he says he's got everything... I once had to pay a visit to the reception of a hotel in my wet bathing suit because my boyfriend said he brought the key of our room to the swimming pool.... but ofcourse he left it inside the room. After that incident, I always check if we have the essentials myself

BTW, I love your trip report so far. I just started my first English written pre trip report myself

 

[Princess Amy]

I must say your trip report is addictive!!! I am at work with my eyes glued to the computer hoping no one is looking over my shoulder You guys make a cute couple and take wonderful photos together. I'm still trying to talk dear husband into a trip this december, hence the already made ticker Well my birthday is in 4 days and I am hoping that it will be a surprise. Okay a girl can dream right Anyways enough about me, I am waiting for some more of your wonderful report. Post soon!!!

 

[Cinderella16]

Ooo the suspense is killing me! I MUST know what happens, doesnt sound like a magical morning but I am hoping things will start looking up. I can so relate to the overdramatic reaction you had to Todd not having his key; when at Disney we just picture everything PERFECT and when it doesnt go that way we freak out Well, I will be axiously waiting another update!! Keep it coming, this TR is addicting!

 

[Tinkerbell1013]

EEE! An update! I've had my daily fix...feeling better already.

I'd of been upset too about the key--here's to hoping it didn't ruin the rest of the day!
