[kmab00]

I love all the group photos! Karen I'm not a big drinker either but I do love a Malibu Bay Breeze and I think I spot some on the tables lol! That is all I drink when I do drink cause you can not taste the alcohol.

Hi Lynn! Thank you! I tasted the Malibu Bay Breeze thing and yeah...it was too much! lol! I could so taste the alcohol and it was really strong to me! Definitely didn't like it!

Great updates Karen, can't believe I missed the MK update, oh well, it was good to catch up this morning, put a smile on my face. It looks like you all had such a blast. I love the HM pictures from MK, one of my favorites. The Boardwalk and Jellyrolls looks amazing, I have never been over to that part before, it looks very cool. Can't wait to read and see more, as always, I love your trip report. Its great.

Thanks!! I'm glad the report put a smile on your face! Disney has a way of doing that to you! The Boardwalk is AWESOME! I would love to stay there one day! Thanks again!

Hey
I'm from Louisiana also. Where do you live I live in Pineville. Can't wait to read more.

Oh neat! I'm down in Lake Charles! I'm glad you found the report!!

Jellyrolls looks like tons of fun! I've never been there. Isn't the Boardwalk nice?

The Boardwalk is AMAZING! So pretty!!! I would love to stay there one day! Thanks for reading along, Lindsay!

Karen, sorry Jellyrolls was your least favorite part but we did have a good time together and the entertainment was great. I am not a huge drinker but when I am out I like to have a drink or 2 and its on very rare occasions like that one.

That's ok! We definitely had a good time and I agree, the entertainment was so great! I had a lot of fun!

I've always wondered what Jellyrolls was like... I think I'll have to check it out next trip!

It was fun, Erin! You'd probably enjoy it!

I've never been to Jellyrolls. Seems like the kind of thing that is more fun with a group, maybe? Was it crowded? Keep the updates coming!

I agree...it's more fun with a group of people! It was pretty crowded! There's not a whole lot of sitting space in there. Thanks for reading along!

I so get it.

I don't go out much since I don't drink. I do enjoy a glass or 2 of white wine on certain occasions....but they are pretty rare

Yeah we had fun but I definitely never go to places like that. It was fun being with the girls!

Sunday, January 11, 2009

The following morning, we woke up and met up with Daniella and Kelly Jo. Well, we had adjoining rooms anyway so we really just opened the door! Haha!

Anyway, they were leaving this morning to go home.

We walked over to the Peppermarket but on our way, we stopped for some photos!

#1 Me!

#2 Heather!

#3 Daniella!

This resort was so big but I loved it! The grounds were beautiful!

Jason was jealous. He's a HUGE Donald fan!

We spotted THIS and stopped by for breakfast.

Daniella's pee-can roll, my pah-can roll! I also got a Caramel Frappuccino...SO good!

After breakfast, we said goodbye to Daniella and Kelly Jo, then we boarded a bus for MGM studios. I had never ridden Toy Story Mania so we wanted to grab fast passes for that and also see our friends running the marathon!

We made it over and were greeted by this! Crazy madness! It was so awesome, though! We were around mile 24 so by the time the runners got there, they were about finished. Everyone was cheering them on! It was GREAT!

We were the DIS Brides cheering section! Haha!

..............................CONT..............................

 

[kmab00]

........................CONT......................

Heather started texting Jen and Crystal to find out where they were at. After standing for a while, I started taking pictures of all the cool people dressed in costume!!

I know you can't see it too well but the girl in pink has fairy wings!

This guy was HILARIOUS! He kept us laughing! He was a worker and he took his job seriously! His job was to let people cross when there was a break in the runners. He would be like, "GO GO GO GO GO!" and guesture with his arms....it was so funny!

This guy's family was waiting by us and he stopped to talk to them. They were like, "WAIT why did you stop?! Keep going!!!"

More cute costumes....

American Flag guy. So neat!

So by this time, we were getting super worried. Jen and Jeff were supposed to have already passed us. We looked for orange hats and couldn't find them. They had quit texting us, too. We had no idea what had happened. We were worried that someone got hurt!

They worker guy in action! Haha!

After standing out for an hour and a half, CRYSTAL came by!! She knew exactly where we were standing so she could wave!

This picture is blurry because I was jumping up and down when I saw her! Hahahahahaa!

YAY Crystal!

She also let us know that Jen and Jeff had crossed the finish line. She was getting text updates to her phone. At least we didn't have to worry anymore but we were SO sad that we had missed them!!!!

..........................CONT......................

 

[kmab00]

..................CONT....................

First stop, fast passes for TSM!

If we would have realized that the marathon ran through the park, we would have gone inside to cheer them on instead! OH well!

As Heather was getting fastpasses, a really nice guy came and asked if we would like his for 2 hours earlier! SURE Thanks!!!

We had a LOT of time to kill so I asked Heather if she minded doing the Narnia attraction with me. I hadn't seen it since it was changed over to PRince Caspian!

Well, we got in the wrong line. Whoops! We were accidentally in the line to meet Prince Caspian! Hahahaha!!

So that's what we did. We're dorks. It's ok!

Now I love this movie but I was SO bored by the attraction! Oh well.

We spend the rest of the afternoon just walking around, waiting for our TS Fastpass time.

The weather was gorgeous! However, this was the day that I got my huge sunburn! Ugh. When we sat down, I didn't realize that my face was in the sun. Lesson learned.

The lights were all still up, too!

Finally it was our TSM time!

The area back there is so cute!

We bypassed all the cute stuff. LOL!

Heather kicked my butt! Haha!

You can see the red starting to set in!

We got icees aftewards. We didn't eat lunch but neither of us were hungry.

After riding TSM, we gave our fastpasses for 4 p.m. to two random girls. they were so excited! We decided to leave and go to DTD and shop for a while. We had Whispering Canyon reservations for later on that night. Jen had to watch the Giants game after her race! Haha!

Up next: Downtown Disney and Heather's about to pass out!

 

[jnjusoioa]

As always Karen, another awesome update!!! Love it!!! I love the TSM area, it looks so neat, hopefully I will get to see it, LOL!!! Not sure when I will be back at Disney, not soon enough, that is for sure. I am loving your trip report and can't wait to read about shopping at DTD, and hoping Heather didn't pass out, yikes!!!!

 

[Girldreamer02]

I love that you called it mgm...makes me feel not so bad b/c I do it all the time and I will continue to do it! Loved the update! We love tsm...you need to go in the stand by line...all the other stuff is soooo cute! We did both so I'm glad we got that chance. Loving the pics...sorry you got sun burnt...we didn't when we were there. Some days the sun wouldn't stay out long and others we were in and out of it to much. I see you guys did some shopping. I love to shop at disney! Can't wait to hear more!
