Bushwackers are Baaaaack. The Plans Stage 2 UPDATE 1/11

[DARuss]

I might even try to get a video of this. If not, then a few pics for all of my DISfriends.

Hey disfriends. Sorry about being out of touch for a little while. We've been playing with our new toy.

I am tring to do toooo many things at once.

We had to do some more research for our upcoming disney trip. As I said in an earlier post, we have never eaten at a Teppan Edo nor have experienced anything like it. I did not have time to cook on monday so I suggested that we do a little research. The suggestion was accepted and we headed into town to try Osaka. As it turned out we loved it. It was funny to watch CL and DD try to catch the food out of the air tossed from the chef. I, of course, had not problem with this. I don't miss much food that comes in my direction. The experience was great and now we have another reason to be excited about our trip. Like we needed more.

Ok, lets get back to some basics before it is time for us to leave here. BTW, it is COLD down here right now. The temp was ONLY 23 when I woke up this morning and in Orlando it was 32. I sure hope it warms up quick.

Did I mention that we like to eat??? BG, SG, LM, Jon, JM & Jake are staying at a different resort than we are so the Crew may tour different parks at different times as well as feasting at different locations too, with the excetion of dinner. We are going to eat dinner together every night.

Here is an outline of what CL, DD9 & the King are planning to do.

Friday: Leave home @ 2:00am
Breakfast @ Cracker Barrel in Pensacola.
Lunch somewhere around Gainsville
Arrive at the Happy Place around 2:00 pm get checked in.
Dinner @ CJs in DTD. (get shopping done while there too).
Saturday: Breakfast:
Lunch: MK @ Peco Bills (or a CS close by)
Dinner: WCC and try to get back to MK for SpectroMagic.
Sunday: Breakfast: Grab something @ Spoodles then onto AK
Lunch: Tusker House (not in stone)
Dinner: Chef Mickey's then EMH evening @ HS.
Monday: Breakfast? Gud question. Get to HS
Lunch: any CS that is close depending when we feel like eating.
Dinner: Teppan Edo, then hang around for Illuminations while tasting
Grey Goose slushie. (I hear these are not to bad)
Tuesday: Breakfast: Crystal Pallace and catch a few
attractions depending on what CL & DD feel like doing. May
go back to resort and play in one of the pools. May get more
swimsuit pics.
Lunch: Maybe a CS at the Beach Club or DTD if we go there early.
Dinner: Raglan Road Irish Pub. (this one may change if I can find
a gud replacement at DTD).
Wednesday: Breakfast: Cape May Cafe' @ BC.
Lunch: We may spend this day @ Epcot and look for a CS meal
here. Any suggestions???
Dinner: San Angel Inn, unless we can get something at Le Cellier.
Thursday: Our last FULL day in the World.
Breakfast: no ressies
Lunch: no ressies
Dinner: Coral Reef.
Not sure what we are going to feel like doing on the last 2 days so we are leaving those unplanned for now.

Right now we are tring to get packing and don't want to forget anything. I hope we don't have any company for the next couple of days cuz we have luggage and goodies all over the place. I think I'm gonna pull out an air mattress cuz all the beds have stuff to be packed covering them.

Up Next: A little drama and will anyone be too sick to travel???

 

[coteau_chick]

Don't leave us to long with that cliff hanger.

 

[DARuss]

Don't leave us to long with that cliff hanger.

Don't worry, I won't. Still getting info on it myself. I am hoping that SG will jump in and put her two cents in.

 

[Blueyed Girl]

Your plans sound great!! I can't believe you guys leave in 2 days! I'm sooo ready for our trip. I want to start packing now!

OMG, I hope no one has that nasty virus that's been going around. I am so paranoid that one of us will end up with that between now and then. I feel like once you are inside of 30 days out, that no one is allowed to get sick!! By the time it travels through all of us SOMEONE will be sick ON the trip.

 

[Where'sPiglet?]

23 degrees?

That's about 14 degrees warmer than here right now, but at least since we've been below freezing for about two weeks straight, I suppose I'm getting used to it.

CS meal at Epcot? Sunshine Seasons in the Land. Good stuff and I don't think I saw it on your list.

I hope you don't have any drama OR anybody too sick to travel! Update soon please!

And have a SAFE trip this time, okay?

Hi everyone

Well I have spent the day packing, charging batteries, packing more, washing and then packing more. I think I am finally done....

I also spent my day with Jake(mynephew), our newest addition to our family. He is 4 months old and came down with a cold last week. He didnt seem to be getting better so just to be safe we brought him to the doctor again.... Poor baby has a very mild case of RSV. The doctor gave us breathing treatments and said DO NOT cancel Disney
She promised he would be better in one day, we were not so sure
Well he was much better today, it is amazing how quick they get better.
He goes to the doctor at 9:15 so say a special prayer for my little man

My husband (BG) stepson (Lil Man) and myself (SG) will be leaving at 1am and heading to Tampa.

Say a prayer for us please and I will let all of you know how our trip went when we return.



SG, BG and LIL MAN are out !!!

It is coming quickly. We will be leaving in less than 24 hours and should be done with breakfast at the Cracker Barrel.

I hope we don't either. We are bringing as many precautions as humanly possible. Every kind of disinfectant as we can. Is it still going around. I haven't heard of any more outbreaks since before Chritmas. I've been telling DD9 to stay away from everyone at school so she won't get sick.

I don't guess I should complain too much. This is the coldest it has been all season. Ya'll have had some wicked cold weather so far. I just looked at the Orlando weather and it is cooler there than here.

We'll have to look into the Sunshine Seasons. Haven't tried that one yet.

The only drama that we were having was our poor lil Jake with his touch of RSV. I think the idea of canceling the trip was discussed but he improved so well that that thought was quickly dismissed. They are going to leave this morning after the doctor's appointment and stop somewhere in FL to break up the drive for Jake. They are not sure how he is going to like the long drive since this is his first long trip.

The other 3 (SG, BG & LM) are already on their way. Not sure when exactly they left but it was supposed to be around 1 or 2 this morning.

Thanks for reading and I should have maybe one more update before our departure. I hope to be doing a little "live" reporting on this trip. I understand that DVC tell us that we will have internet access in the rooms this year.

Have a wonderful vacation. I will be thinking of all of you this week.

[Where'sPiglet?]

Have a great trip! Glad to hear the little guy is doing better.

Live updates would be awesome but I'd understand if we don't hear from you until your return....I know my trips are open-close at the parks and on my last trip I was getting only 4 hours of sleep each night - and NO mid-day nap. There was NO WAY I was posting anything! (Although coteau_chick is bugging me about my still non-existent trip report)

Good morning my fellow Disney fanatics. It is almost 1:00am here. I am WAITING on CL to get ready. It seems like this last hour is as long as the last 2 weeks. I am about to wake up DD and we should be on the way to the happy place in an hour.

Piglet, You have to watch out of us cajuns. Patience is not something we are known for. Don't know if I'll be up to the live updates, although I am usually up for at least 30 mins before everyone else so maybe I can check in at that time. Only if DVC didn't tell us a little fib about having free access to the internet. If not, I won't be paying for it. I'm too cheap for that.

Say a little prayer for us and keep everything under control until we get back.

 

[jewels1916]

Just skipped over here from my PTR! Have a fabulous time!!

 

[DARuss]

Just a quick flyby. I'm up early this morning and already to go but some of the other bushwackers are sleeping in this morning. Guess the late nights are getting to them. The EMH @ MK on Monday night was great but now, I think it is catching up a little bit.

Piglet you were, as I was afraid of, correct in saying that we are sooooo busy having fun it's not easy to try to stop by to visit here while we are in the HAPPY PLACE.

Thanks for stopping by jewels. I'll be back over to check on yours when we get settled back in at home. That might not be until Sunday or Monday tho.

Thanks everyone for reading and say a prayer for our trip home on friday, you know that whole 18 wheeler thing. Now I have to start waking some snoring Bushwackers so we can go to our breakfast.

 

[Where'sPiglet?]

Hey....I hope you got home okay!

 

[Phibbles]

So is there a TR to read yet?

 

[jewels1916]

Hope you had a great time, and everyone made it home ok!

 

[DARuss]

Hey....I hope you got home okay!

Thanks for asking. Yes everyone got home without any incidents this year.

So is there a TR to read yet?

Not yet. Everyone is just getting settled back in at home and half of the bushwackers seemed to get sick just as we got back home. Thank God no one was too bad at WDW. CL was getting a little under the weather the last couple of days but not too bad to keep her out of the parks. She's such a trooper.

Hope you had a great time, and everyone made it home ok!

Oh yeah. It was a GREAT time.

Thank Ya'll fer checkin in. I'll try to get a TR up and running soon.

 

[Where'sPiglet?]

Hey....glad to see you posted an update!

I can't wait to hear all about it!

And ONE WEEK from tomorrow I get to take a trip! (But NOT to WDW)

 

[OhMari]

I had to go back to the beginning.
Didn't see any hidden Mickey's.
I remember when you guys got snow.

But, we call this kind of snow, "a dusting".

Where is your helmet, mister?

Do you want me to move this thread to our regular board?
