Disney Gives Me the Warm Fuzzies. January 2010 PreTrip Report. Update 11/6 Pg. 79

[Lady Lallie]

Marc WRINKLED 3.0??? Is it okay???

It is. Luckily is was still secured in my notebook. So the damage is being reversed as we speak. I've put a heavy book on the whole notebook to get the wrinkles out.

Good! I was worried about it!

It just demonstrates how truly OCD I am.

I would probably still be screaming at Charles about it!

I've only written two days down so far so I might have to start over....I'm bad like that. I can't have wrinkles. I just checked it and it's quite prominent!

 

[MinnieNurse]

Yay for great airfare rates. I liked 2.0 but cant wait to see the new improved 3.0.

Mickey_Mom sending you pixie dust for 12/2010! Those sound like great dates.

 

[jenjolt]

Are you one of those people who if they mess up writing something they have to start completely over...because I may know one of those people

LOL Phillip knows better than to even touch anything that might be Disney related!!

I'm loving 3.0. Truly. It's going to be a great one!!

I'm not sure if the December dates are going to work for us. If we end up driving I'm so afraid we are going to get stuck in snow. Blech.

Hmmm. I might be. I hate admitting that though, especially in this recycling age.

Marc needs to learn that! I can't complain though because he was cleaning the house while I was napping.

It just demonstrates how truly OCD I am.

To demonstrate how truly OCD I am I decided to type up all my ADR's so they would be on sheet of paper placed strategically in my planning book. When I opened up my book today I see that I had already done it! But I seriously don't remember when.

Congrats on the weight loss LL! That's fantastic.

That is hilarious!!

Thanks!

 

[TarzansKat]

Congratulations on the weight loss! Good for you!!!!

And woo hoo for adding an extra day. More time in Disney is always better in my book, you know that.

And here's to 3.0! May it knock our socks off.

Thank you!!

Yes, I am very happy with a FULL WEEK in Disney. Makes me oh so happy!

Hopefully 3.0 will be posted sometime this evening!

If I may say so myself, 3.0 is the best yet. I don't feel any need to tweak it at the moment. I'm sure that will change once we get park hours but until then...this may be it for awhile.

Tuesday 1/12
*Arrive & Check in @ Pop
*Lunch @ Kona Cafe
*MK/Epcot?
*Dinner @ Coral Reef

I'm excited to try Kona for lunch. Marc & I had such a great dinner there. I love the look of the lunch menu so I think it's a good choice for me. I'm surprised I've picked Coral Reef but happy with the choice!

Wednesday 1/13
*Rope Drop @ MK
*Lunch @ Liberty Tree Tavern
*Break? / Resort Hop?
*Choose My Own Adventure Night - TBD
I have no idea what I want to do this night. I have a feeling when I get the park hours I'll have a better idea.
*Jen arrives around 11:30PM - YAY!
Jen is going to leave school and start driving. I'm very excited about seeing her just a few hours early!

Thursday 1/14
*Check into 2nd Pop Reservation
*DHS @ Rope Drop
*Boat to Boardwalk
*Lunch @ Big River Grille
*Dessert @ Beaches N' Cream...??
*Back to DHS
*Dinner @ Mama Melrose's
*Fantasmic (Please!?!)

I am so excited about these plans for our first day together. I think it's going to be wonderful to take the boat over to Boardwalk and have lunch at a new place. Anyone been there before? The menu looks yummy but then again everything looks yummy to me at the moment. Possible dessert at Beaches N' Cream? YUMM-O! I hope Fantasmic is showing this night. Let's all cross our fingers.

Friday 1/15
*Animal Kingdom
*Lunch @ Yak N' Yeti
*Dinner @ Jiko

Nothing has changed here.

Saturday 1/16
*Epcot
*Lunch @ Les Chefs
*Dinner @ Le Cellier
(Possible Pirates & Pals Night)

We've sacrificed Rose & Crown, which I'm 100% okay with. It's not going anywhere. We also think this is a good night to have an earlier dinner and head off to the Pirates & Pals Voyage. We don't know what time we have to be there though...does anyone know?


Sunday 1/17
*Pre-Park Opening Breakfast @ Crystal Palace
*MK
*Break ?
*Dinner @ Whispering Canyon Cafe - SKILLET!
(Possible Pirates & Pals Night)

I'm so excited for Crystal Palace! I'm so excited for Whispering Canyon Cafe!! It's going to be a wonderful day!

Monday 1/18
*Hollywood Studios
*Lunch @ Sci Fi
*Dinner @ Brown Derby
*Fantasmic (!?!)

I debated going to Epcot this day in the morning because I was worrying Jen wasn't getting enough Epcot time but she assures me she is loving the idea of 2 Hollywood Studios days. So am I! We are going to have so much fun there.

Tuesday 1/19
*Breakfast @ 1900 Park Fare
*Lunch @ Wolfgang Puck Express
*Jen brings LL to airport
*Sad Goodbyes

Jen has graciously offered to bring me to the airport so we can have more time together. Isn't she the best?! So I'll just be using Magical Express upon arrival.

Coming up will be a dissection of our ADRs and reviews of some very important products that will be used in Disney.

I also might post some pictures of the wonderful day Marc & I had in Concord at some of the Historical sites if you all are interested.

Warm Fuzzies.

Jen: Sending an email card of aliens chasing you throughout space to your husband back home!

LL: Sitting in a booth at Hollywood Brown Derby.

 

[TarzansKat]

I LOVE itinerary 3.0! Excellent!

Honestly, I can't really find where I would change anything, but like you said, when you get park hours, you may want to tweak it. Other than that, I think it looks great!

 

[jenjolt]

I just love 3.0...it just clicks with everything we really want to do!!! I'm really looking forward to more time at DHS!! We had some great memories there in May!!! I wish we had more time there then and we are going to get that time in January!!! I'm really looking forward to Fantasmic!!!

I really would love to see the pictures of you and Marc's trip this weekend!! Please share!!!!

Hmmmm...Brown Derby is so yummy! What a great warm fuzzy!! Phillip really enjoyed getting my email at work I think I will send him another one on this trip LOL!!

 

[PracPerfPatricia]

I think 3.0 looks great...(so how long of a life will it have...)

Btw-Brown Derby & Fantasmic......I can't believe I haven't done either... so I can't wait to hear about them...

I have however, done the Pirates Cruise...and it was SO much Fun...
you will have a blast...the "pirates" who run the cruises were too funny...even though the cruises are "family" oriented you could tell these guys would be comfortable running an adults pirate cruise...

You know I was thinking that we're a OCD bunch -we were all worried about the Itinerary-no one thought to ask about Marc...

 

[PracPerfPatricia]

Oh I forgot-travel photos of Concord...? Yes please...

 

[wigdoutdismom]

The cheese soup at Big River is yummo, so is the meatloaf!
