Can a PTR be therapeutic?YUP!!Addictive?**2/14-I'm home...**

It's 32 degrees and it's snowing. Sadly, it's supposed to turn into rain overnight so I'll still have to work. Poo...

I hope your back feels better! I know what that's like - I'm 25 years old and feel like I'm 90 sometimes between my back, neck, shoulders, and knees. That's what I get for playing volleyball for 4 years I guess. Although the back injury was actually caused by a car accident. I was stopped in traffic, waiting for someone at the head of the line to make a left turn, and some moron (an off-duty police officer in an FBI registered vehicle, no less) hit us from behind at 45 miles an hour. Yep....that'll do it!

I'm sorry, was this YOUR trip report? I'm hijacking, aren't I? Ok I'll shut up now.

I wish I lived somewhere where it snowed.......occasionally.

I've had back issues the last 2-3 years

That accident sounds brutal....

No prob..hijacking...it happens.

Get thee to a chiropractor, son! You so cannot even risk the possibility of missing TOT !!! Although , having done WDW once in a wheelchair (full story will be on my PTR soon...if it isn't already...I can never remember what I've already posted...darn early-onset senility...), I must say it's not a bad way to travel!

I too have been in a wheelchair for part of our trip, most likely I will be by the end of this one too. My back can't take the strain sometimes. I have a video of us going thru the world showcase we call "the view from the chair" LOL. Here this'll give u a giggle...

I'll leave the crazy thrill rides to you all and I'll stick with my Winnie the Pooh I use to love the thrills, but in my old age I've come to appreciate the calm ones. Who knows what happened to me?

But, I AM going to try Space Mountain on this trip!

I love me some Space Mountain! But i love thunder mountain better! it's my fav!!!


Hey Jordan at least being busy next week will keep you busy because time is about to drag for us both! LOL!

 

[jordanyosh]

I'm subbing but I'm not reading back - too many pages for me to get caught up


I see you're leaving soon though!!!

No worries...read what you can...

Just so you know...I know you're Canadian....

I love Canada (since hockey's big there). Big time hockey fan here...

 

[jordanyosh]

Well, keep it heated...keep it heated!! It HAS to get better before your trip. Won't be long now!!! I can't believe how close it's getting.

It actually feels better now. I've been stretching and keeping it heated.....

It should be good to go....

God help WDW if I'm wheeling around in a wheelchair....

Big Thunder at night is the best. RnRC is still my favorite.

I know next week will fly by. Actually from here on out, I'm crazy busy.

Just words. No pix

So no new pix. Sorry.

However, I have been busy wrapping up details of our trip.

Magical Express

I have 3 separate reservations. One 3 night @ Pop, One 8 night @ BCV (under Wendy and Derek), 2 final nights @ Pop. I received ME tags for both Pop stays, but neither had my return flight home. So today I called the nicest CM and she cleared everything up for me......

Garden Grocer

I received lists from Joanne, Wendy and Kim. I combined them all and will be placing an order tomorrow. It's quite a lengthy list. I just hope we use it all.

ADRs

NO CHANGES!!!!!!!.........today.

Itineraries

Wendy and I just talked about their final day which is Monday, Feb 11th. I will take a cab in the morning and pre register at Pop; drop my bags off, etc.. Then I'll meet them at either DHS or Epcot. Wendy prefers to stay close to BCV before their departure time. They have to be back at BCV to catch ME at about 2pm. Kim and I will hang out until she has to be back at about 4pm. I will then hopefully be able to get my room at Pop.

I originally had my Backstage Magic Tour Scheduled for Friday, Feb 1st. I'm thinking I'll change it to Tuesday, Feb 12th. It'll give me something to do after everyone leaves.....So..........................that leaves me with an open day on that Friday the 1st.......I'm hoping the weather is nice and then maybe I could hit Typhoon Lagoon...

Useless Info

I've written notes for everyone as an addendum to their itineraries and spreadsheets. These notes include facts about the Beach Club Villas, restaurants, Mortgage Conference at Swan/Dolphin, Cheer competitions, why certain parks on certain days etc....

 

[carissanboys]

I HAVE ridden BTMR, btw. It was cool. I'd do it again. (But, I still prefer Winnie the Pooh )

Yay for no ADR changes!! Sounds like everything is coming together after all of your hard planning (and Wendy's!). You'll still be around when I return so I won't say have a great trip, yet!

Hey, we talked about this. I thought you were just going to stay.

NO CHANGES!!!!!!!

Yea, Yea, Yea. We'll see. You're not there yet.

That sounds like a really good idea to me.

Keep taking care of that back. No time for injuries.

Oe of the advantages of staying in a place with a kitchen. Whenever we stay at tmeshares, we alwaysendup having too much food, but it's nice to have it there for when we want/need it.

NO CHANGES!!!!!!!.........today.

I forsee at LEAST one more change in your future!!

THis sounds like a good idea as long as you can get there for the tour OK. WE've never done a tour, but it sounds pretty cool.

Cool. Good to keep everyne in the loop. I just tell HHBG "trust me" and he follows blindly. If only that were true. Even if I have documentation, half the time he questions me! I tell him, "fine, YOU get on the DIS, search for info, ad read UG" then he shuts up.

You're sooo close! Wow!!

How's your back doing? As a physical therapist, I recommend doing lots of walking and stretching.
