Like, maybe, shoes perhaps?? You aren't the only one...that's all I'll say before we start a flame war! Good to know about the HoP building though....I actually really like the show so it's a bonus that it's so comfortable in there!

Yup, I saw it! I despise the teacups so I'm not bothered by it, but since most of Fantasyland (if not all of it) will be closed during out trip...I expected it before they announced it. I just REALLY hope that PhilharMagic is open! I really love that show!

I think I was wearing flip flops at the time But yeah, getting back on topic I do like the show there, but it's so nice and cool in that building It's hard to leave it when it's so hot outside.

Spinny things like the teacups make me sick, so I wouldn't go on them anyway, but I'm pretty sure PrincessInOz said something about the teacups for her trip. Then again, I may be remembering it wrong. I'm pretty sure Philhar will be open. I haven't heard anything about it closing.

Well, I'm ok with it being closed of rmy fall trip, since it looks liek it wil be open for my Dec. trip. IASW is also closed for my fall trip, which I am totally OK with... NOT a fan of that ride either. I wish there was a schedule (that I knew of) that listed all the attractions in Fantasyland and when they would be closed...

If you go to this site, it'll tell you what the current known rehabs/closures are That's where I found out about the teacups. I'm hoping nothing I actually want to go on goes down for rehab.

 

[PrincessInOz]

So did anyone else notice this closure? Mad Tea Party closed 9/26/10- 11/12/2010

This doesn't bother me, since I wasn't gonna go on it anyway, but if you're going during that time period and wanted to go on it, you may want to scratch it off the list

Well, I guess it's really off my list now....is it NOT???

So no spinning death saucers? Oh, what will my kids think? No IASW either. Seems like they are shutting down all the rides I don't mind not going on. Just leaves more time to take them on the really fun rides.

Love the old pictures. Keep them coming.

Nope, no spinning death saucers My brother, sister and dad love rides like that, but my mom and I can't stand them. They make her sick, which I inherited I can't even do Mission Space on the green team because of how tight that space is. The one time I did that ride was before they made the green team, and I was so sick after, not only from the spinning, but from the tight space.

I haven't had a chance to look for the rest of my old pictures I'm sure they're around somewhere, but I don't know how many I still have. I didn't take a whole lot of pictures on my first CP, and most of the ones from my second/seasonal have been lost in a hard drive failure unless I posted them on Facebook.

50 days left, YAY! I can officially say I'm going to WDW next month!

And now for another episode in Dana's Illustrated Itinerary...

Sunday, October 24, 2010

I plan on sleeping in on this day, and relaxing around the hotel for the morning and early afternoon.

As long as my Cricket broadband card works, I'll be checking my email and the Dis and Twitter and such on my laptop, as well as sorting photos and such.

I would like to go swimming at some point in the morning. I've pictured the 80s pool because I don't know what building I'll be in, but I requested the 70s.

After swimming, I'll grab lunch here:

And around 3, I'll get dressed in my costume and hop on the bus over to Magic Kingdom for...

I can't wait!

I'll likely go on a ride or two and take some pictures. I'm hoping to run into some fellow Disers, and will definitely be having dinner with PrincessInOz, LuvChefMic, and their husbands here at 6:

I so can't wait! I love and and . Too bad Piglet doesn't have a smiley

After dinner, I'm not sure what we're going to do. I plan on hitting the candy spots at some point and going on a few rides, but I'm going to three parties, so I can always do that stuff on my own if the people I'm with don't want to. If they're doing the free face painting again this year, I might do that.

At some point, we're going to watch one of the parade showings!

And we'll close out the evening with Hallowishes!

After the fireworks, I'm not sure what the plan is I'm really not sure what the plan is at all in regards to what we're doing at the party aside from dinner, parade, and fireworks. I"m sure we'll figure it out

And after the party's over, I'll head back to Pop, wash my face, and go to bed!

 

[PrincessInOz]

All sounds like good fun! Dinner, candy, rides, parade and hallowishes - how can you top that?

 

[DisneyFirefly]

Hmm... Maybe by doing it twice?

 

[PrincessInOz]

Or three times?

Surely NOT!

 

[DisneyFirefly]

Hey, if I have the money, I may as well do it three times At least I'm not doing it four times! It's the night I get there, too!

 

[Nermel9]

Looks like a fun day! The Halloween party looks like so much fun!

 

[Simba22]

We still haven't bought our costumes for the Halloween Party! They're just so expensive! I wanted to get them 2 weeks ago when we got paid but other things came up....I'm hoping to order them this weekend since we get paid tomorrow. I want to make sure they fit and have enough time to exchange them if need be.

I really love it It's a lot of fun, and I can't wait to go

God, tell me about it. With my size, it's so hard to find good costumes that fit well, so I'm actually making one of my costumes. Although, technically, my mom's making it, since I can't sew at all I just have to buy a top for it and then I'll be good. We got the fabric for about $10 and the top'll be about $15, and I already have shoes to go with it, so the whole costume cost about $25, which really isn't bad for a plus-size costume made with good material that actually fits well.

Day 3 is the best yet! I so can't wait for the party! You are making me want to go more than once too. Don't think we could though. Too much planned already, but I am so excited for you to do the party 3 times!!!

You guys also have four people, as opposed to my one, so it'd be a lot more expensive for you guys to do it more than once than it is for me. I'm mainly doing it three times because the MNSSHP is one of my favorite events at WDW It's a lot of fun, though, and I think you guys'll have a great time!

I'm bored and have nothing to do, so here's another illustrated itinerary day This is for day 4!

Monday, October 25, 2010

I'm not sure what time my day's going to start, but at some point, I'll be heading over here to meet up with PrincessInOz and (hopefully) LuvChefMic:

Epcot! We're going to spend a good chunk of the day wandering around the World Showcase for this:

There are also a few rides I want to go on, but the only one I want to do early is this one, as I've never done it:

I figure I can either do it early or get a Fastpass, and go from there

These are the other rides I want to go on at some point during the day:

Yeah, not too many I want to spend most of the day at the F&W and wandering the World Showcase. I can't find a picture of it, but I definitely want to try the new Karamell-Kuche shop in Germany if it's open. It's supposed to open this month, so I hope it'll be open for my trip.

I don't have pics of everything I want to try, as I couldn't find some on Google Images, but I have a good portion of them. I couldn't find the cannoli from Italy, the churro from Mexico, the dark chocolate sensation from the dessert booth, the waffles from Belgium, or the cheese fondue.

From Germany:

The nurnberger sausage and pretzel roll.

The apfel strudel.

From South Africa:

This one, I'm iffy about, but I'd like to try it. Seared beef tenderloin with sweet potato puree and mango barbecue sauce.

From Canada:

Cheddar cheese soup. I've never been able to eat at Le Cellier, so I've actually never had this. I'm really looking forward to it!

From Ireland:

Fisherman's pie. I've heard this is good.

Lava cake with Bailey's ganache.

From France:

Chocolate creme brulee.

There are a few others, but again, I didn't find pictures of them.

I'd like to stay to see this:

And then PrincessInOz and I have plans to hop over to MK for EMH

I'm planning on getting a late dinner here, if they're open (which they should be):

After we're through with EMH, she'll head back to her resort and I'll head back to mine to sleep

 

[Simba22]

Yum-o! All those food pics are making me really excited for the F&W Fest! I'm actually really looking forward to that South African BBQ!

 

[stephielela]

Those look like super fun days! I am getting so excited for my trip! I know what you mean about getting to say "next month..." i'm the same way! Thankfully mine is not "this month"!
