I think I see a hidden Mickey cloud in one of your plane window pictures!
Seeing your picture of the MCO atrium reminded me - last trip was the first time I realized that those windows and balconies were actually hotel rooms! I reeeeealy don't have the desire to have the inside of the airport, especially the security entrance area, as my hotel room view!
Oh really?? Hmm, I did that on purpose....
OMG I know!! It would be way too loud!!
Okay, so before I begin with my comment I had wanted to tell you- if you notice on my future/new TR that the beginning of our intros are oddly similar, please don't think I ripped you off! Hahah I'm way too eager for my new trip and I want to get the TR started like AS SOON as I get back, so I already wrote the intro like... 2-3 weeks ago. (HAHAHA I'm so lame.) I did a similar thing in my last TR but it had to do with the Disney busses, but since I'm staying at a monorail resort I wanted to apply it to the monorail this time! I'm sorry this is so long-winded but I just wanted you to know... I guess great minds think alike!
Anyways...
You can get lemon flavoring in your Coke?! I had no idea! How is that? It sounds interesting! (The random things I choose to comment on, I swear...)
Sounds like a pretty good travel day! And yall didn't get lost or go the wrong way to the Magical Express... bravo!!!
YAY FOR ARRIVING!
That's ok! I didn't call dibs
LOL! I'm just kidding, it's completely fine! Great minds definitely do think alike!!!
YES! It's so good!!! At our Cumberland Farms (gas station) we can get lemon, cherry, vanilla, and lime flavoring in the fountain sodas! It's basically the best thing ever!
Yes, it was actually pretty smooth sailing! We got really lucky with the whole not getting lost thing!
I'm not sure how it didn't happen!
Good job on the update!!
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it!
I'm following along and excited to hear more! It sounds like you guys had a great time!
That stewardess sounds HILARIOUS! Lol I love when the pilots on the way to MCO know that practically everyone is going to Disney
Ahhhhh! Art of Animation is on the ME list! I haven't seen it yet... so exciting lol
Yay for real ME busses!
I love that too!! It gets you so much more excited!!
Well, we took a trip over there to look around and grab lunch in their food court, so you'll be able to see some of the pictures in my next update!! It's really an awesome resort! Very well themed and really cool- especially for families!!
Desparate times calls for desparate measures, right?
But I hear ya, when you end up waiting at an airport for more than an hour, a comfy couch or a bed of any kinds looks magnificent compared to the uncomfortable seats at the airport which has lost all its cushion.
I do seriously wonder though how soundproof those rooms are. That atrium gets pretty loud between all the travelers, over-the-speaker announcements etc.
I know!! It was looking very nice at that late hour!!
I can't imagine that it's completely quiet in those rooms! It must get pretty loud!!
I'm here.
I got to know your mom on the June 2012 thread in the Doing the Happy Dance section. It was fun looking forward to our trips together. I looked for you all at Crystal Palace that morning we both had ADRs but a face to face was not to be.
Debbie sure made it more of an adventure than I'm sure any of us planned, but we didn't let it get us down either. Well, not for more than a few minutes anyway. Fortunately dd and I never had our "moments" at the same time. It was never long before we were cheered up again when we got down about the weather.
That being said, I'm toying with a shorter do-over for later this year. Not so much a do-over because our trip was great, but we talked at length about how we want to see the decorations again. I'm looking at November and looking even more closely December. Chances are slim, but it's fun to think about.
Looking forward to reading about your trip.
Welcome! Yes, my mom told me about you and your family being at CP that morning!! We were looking for you too, but you must have been on the other side of the restaurant!
It sure did rain a lot, and it was hard to do a lot of the things you want to! Especially with children, it's hard to stay comfortable in the rain!
That might not be a bad idea!!
The Christmas decorations are so beautiful, and I haven't been to see them in such a long time because of school!! It is very fun to think about it!
Disney is the best thing to day dream about!!
Thank you! I hope you enjoy it!
I'm joining in on your TR! Sounds fun!
I love our Mom/Daughter trips. We were there around the same time you were, but we left on the 21st.
Yay! Welcome!! It was a lot of fun- since it's just the two of us, we can really do what we want to!
Did you miss all the rain? I'm not sure what the weather was like before we arrived, but I do know it wasn't that rainy on Wednesday and Thursday.
So glad y'all made it safely to the airport and to Disney!
But "Boo" for having to wait long for a ME bus.
It's so hard waiting for the buses even when they come quick. Don't they know everyone wants to get to Disney right away?
So excited to hear more!
Okay, now this is completely off topic, but had to tell you: Since I started the C25K program, Ed has been after me to buy new tennis shoes (or as he would correct me & say - running shoes). I don't know why - my tennis shoes are only 8 years old.
Anyway, I finally gave in to him & let him take me to some running store here. Well, I was standing there looking at all of the shoes, waiting for someone to come help me. They look at how you walk & stuff to recommend shoes. Anywhoooo.....this girl worker walks up behind me & asks if I need any help. I turn around to talk to her & OMG! I could've swore it was you! I have found your doppleganger & she lives in south Louisiana! That is unless you have secretly taken up a job down here in a running store for the summer.
She truly looked so much like you....she was even really tall! I just had to share that with you...it was freaky.
Thank you! I love landing at MCO! It's like yayyyy my vacation's starting!!!
Waiting for DME is the WORST!!! It's like ahhh I'm so close, but then I have to wait in this stinkin' line!
OMG
That is too funny!!!!!! Ahhh, I love seeing dopplegangers for other people, but I've always wondered if I have one out there! Apparently I do!! That is awesome!
Hey just tuning into your TR. I can't wait to hear all about it
Thank you!! Welcome!
