Sorry it took me a while, but I'm finally caught up on your report!
Day 1, Part 1, “We can see Zebras from our bed”
I was so excited because I was sure this is a savanna room! We were upgraded to a full savanna view!
Yay! That's awesome!
I will show a few more room pictures in my next post! We literally could see the zebras right from the bed.
Such a wonderful view!
I snapped a few pictures of them as they were leaving. We didn’t get to meet them formally, they did wave at us
Awesome!
I will say the parks and the bathrooms did look more dirty this trip and this saddens me so much! I have noticed a decline in the superior cleanliness, I have been so accustomed to at WDW. I do have a few theories, one is staff has been cut and it shows! Okay on to happier things!
This makes me sad, too. Walt would be so disappointed about this, I'm sure. The cleanliness and level of service were such big things for him. I wondered about a shortage of staff, too.
Hello Everyone! I am trying to be positive but our winter has really been a crap fest since I returned from Florida! We had brutally cold weather and this past week we have received another 14 inches of snow! I really could just cry! I do not see any warmer weather days in our future so yeah it stinks!!
I feel you! We haven't gotten nearly as much snow as you, at least not yet. But it's been chilly and messy, and I just want spring to come! I need to do a placement for school next year in the winter, and I'm trying to work out an internship somewhere down south so I don't have to go through another cold, slushy, gross winter again.
I will share a secret with all of you, my sister snores! It did wake me a few times during the night.
Oh no! Nathan snores, too. Loud! And I hate ear plugs. We have a spare bedroom in our apartment, and often one of us ends up sleeping in it for part of the night so we both sleep soundly, because it's like sleeping with a buzzsaw!
If we ever move into a smaller place, I'm gonna have to get better at tuning him out!
I guess I have this in my future, lol! My sister is almost 9 years older than me and she loves to tell me what I have in my future, yay, not really!
Andi, started laughing at me, because I said Gonedoughla”, hey, I am from northern Minnesota, we pronounce everything as it is. Vowels are always a long vowel to me, that is how I grew up! I am sure I sound like an idiot to some, haha!
That's hilarious! I did notice your accent when we met, but I wasn't surprised by it knowing you're from Minnesota. And I don't think it's quite as thick as some people might expect by how it's usually portrayed on tv, at least in the shows I've watched! Also...I couldn't judge anyway since I'm from Canada!
I feel like our Canadian accent is kind of somewhere between yours and the kind of standard American accent actors on tv shows use or whatever, in terms of the way we use our vowels. I actually don't think my accent is all that strong, though it's probably gotten a little more so since I've moved to Nova Scotia, because people use really long O's here. I think people from British Columbia tend to have a stronger "Canadian" accent than we do here, or folks from Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, or Newfoundland. There's a ton of accent variation across Canada, though probably less so than across the USA. But it's funny, because we get totally mixed reactions when we go south and tell people from Canada. They are either like, "oh yeah, I could tell from your accent!" or they're like, "really!? But you don't have an accent at all! Don't you guys all say 'aboot'?"
I want to add, again, I called mousekeeping before we left and requested mid morning cleanings each day and once again this is what we got. We did not get any surprise security checks. I strongly suggest doing this to all of you reading along so the security checks won’t hinder your stay!!
That's such a good strategy.
Andi’s second ride on RnRc, she was into the tongue out this trip, ugh!
Great photo!
I do believe our wait was probably 30 minutes in the FP line, boo!
That's really unfortunate! My longest waits for FP always tend to be on Soarin', too.
We had a sampling of desserts to end our meal and of course we got the hot towels and I immediately thought of
@ariane37 son, Chris, and how he loves his warm moist towel, lol!
I always think of Chris when we get hot towels, too!
It's not easy lol. Maybe you'll get lots of snow at home while you're in Florida and you can laugh about missing a storm!
