My first attempt at writing a trip report.....be patient with me.
Who: Diane (me) somewhere between 30 and 40
Mom if I wrote her age down, I wouldn't see tomorrow!
Dad 66 (gives you a clue on mom's age)
Where: Animal Kingdom Lodge
When: November 28 - December 8
Why: It's Christmas time!
Today's Plan: My parents only have 4 day hopper passes and after driving for 3 days, my dad wanted an 'off' day today. They wanted to get their pictures developed from the Safari rides yesterday, so off they went to Walgreen's. (I can't believe they didn't go to Target to help support my 401K plan! )
My plan was to do laundry, go to Downtown Disney and then over to Magic Kingdom for a bit. I wanted to do BTMRR and Alien without them, since I knew they would never do either of these attractions.
Actual : With the title of this day, as well as the time I'm posting the report - you can guess that the day didn't go as planned.
After getting laundry done, I headed out for Downtown Disney about 11:30am.
My first clue that I felt bad should have been that I was sweating in shorts and a polo shirt and it was about 50 degrees out!
My second clue should have been that I had no interest in buying anything at the Days of Christmas store. I live for shopping at that store and I had absolutely no interest in buying anything. I had no interest in visiting World of Disney either - so I knew I should head back to the room.
My third clue should have been that I wasn't thirsty. I usually drink water all day long and here it was about noon and I hadn't drank anything all day.
Once I finally figured everything out, I got back to the room about 1:45pm and I've been in bed ever since! For anyone who read the pre-trip report...I'm sure some of this is just exhaustion from all the travel prior to my vacation. I hope that tomorrow I'm well rested and ready to go again. One good thing about not feeling well - I didn't spend any money at Downtown Disney!
Tomorrow: Parents and I are going to MGM for Beauty and the Beast, then off to Magic Kingdom since Spectromagic at night!

Now Im home (in bed and tending to my sick children) dreaming of all the stuff I left behind! I hope your feeling better and are able to enjoy the rest of your vacation!
