Disney Vacay with the Love Bugs (New 6/23 update ~ Chef Mickeys)

[FauntleroyFAN07]

enjoyed the update, nice park touring for the day, 3 parks

i have went to one park,left went to one other and back to the original, but dont think i have hit 3 in one day before.



did the pretzel have almond pieces on it, or just the flavor?

 

[jenbear123]

I can't believe the TVs in the bathroom at ESPN! Those are some big sports fans!

What a crazy day you had! 3 parks in one day would tire anyone out. You are very brave for going on RnRC. I just don't do loops! Funny how you didn't know it went upside down

 

[Disneyfreak616]

Love the update!!!

So glad Lexi loved RnRC!! That ride is SO much fun! The launch is the best part!

Sorry her head was hurting It's no fun to not feel good in DW.

Your PP pics are awesome! I love the ones of you and Levi by EE!

Those ESPN bathrooms are so funny! Definitely designed by a man!

Mmmm...I'm gonna have to try that American Dream when I'm there this summer! Looks so yummy and refreshing!

Sad that the trip is starting to wind down. But those pics of Lexi and Levi holding up Spaceship Earth are great!

 

[HulaHoopy]

I just started reading your trip report. It is great! Thank you!

 

[lbuzz52]

i dont think i could ever handle 3 parks in one day. wow!

i have to have one of those American dreams. i LOVE icee's. my kiddos do too, thanks to the fact that i craved icee's constantly while pregnant.

 

[ariel333]

Awesome update! Can't wait for more! Those American dream floats look very tasty, can't wait to try them one day!

 

[jc040404]

Love that pic!

Sounds like a busy, but fun filled day!

I'm making a note about RNRC and the crazy take off. Thank goodness my guy has a little over four inches before we tackle that!

Too bad about the crowds dying down just after you left AK. Those pics were definitely worth the visit though! Loved 'em!

I don't think I've ever noticed anyone with that red, white, & blue float before. Looks nifty! I never seem to remember this stuff once I'm in the park, but I wanna try one now!

 

[onescgirl]

nice update! Looks like you had a crazy busy day but a fun one!!!

Will you ever find the camera bag??!!!!!

I could use one of those drinks right now

It was a very busy day!! And the 2nd part was crazy with us just running around everywhere!
Thankfully we do end up finding the bag. I had several filled SD's cards in the bag. I have learned a lesson that I will not take filled SD cards on a trip with me anymore.
I tried Lexi & Levi's float & it was really, really good!

Yikes! What a day! That seems like too fast a pace for me. We've never done three parks in one day...not sure I want to spend that much time on buses!

It was totally unplanned. The plan was stay in AK, but we gave up on that too quick. It was really one of the most relaxing parts of the trip because we were cruising around doing nothing. The bus rides are always our only rest time!

Great pictures...you have such cute kids. Lexi looks like much more of a poser/ham for the camera than Levi.

Oh, Lexi is way much more of a poser than Levi. Levi does not care about pictures at all, but he's learned to smile to get it over with quickly!

What are in those floats? It looks like a combo of slushie and ice cream...we might need to try one of those!

It is. Red & blue slushie w/vanilla ice-cream in the middle.

Yeah, us guys get TVs in the bathroom sometimes, though I've never seen them for the stalls - usually over urinals, which of course the ladies rooms don't have. We NEVER get couches though.

I'm jealous

Great pictures! I think this was our arrival day because we went to AK for EMH. It was very busy when we first arrived, but the crowds really thinned out after 6pm or so. I know we did FOTLK around 6 and after the show, the crowds were pretty much gone. Right before the end of EMH (8pm), the wait for EE was only 5 minutes, but I don't even think it took that long!

I know. It was on your TR that I found out the lines went to nothing! I couldn't believe it! If only we had stayed longer, or arrived later, or something like that...
Oh well, we now know!

You guys had a very long day. I don't think we've ever done 3 parks in one day....wow!

3 parks is a lot and we did 3 parks in one day on our last trip too. I can not believe we took in two after 5:00.

Impressive.

Yeah, I couldn't come up with anything more creative to get my post at the top of the page!

Nice update. I laughed at that one picture of Levi doing a yoga pose in front of EE.

I know, it was cracking me up when the photographer posed him like that!

I'm glad the kids like RnRC. You reminded me of the first time I took my oldest daughter on it -- I had been on it a few years before and forgot about the loop. I told her that it was no big deal, and then while in line I remembered. Oops. She still liked it.

Well, I'm glad to hear that it does have a loop. I didn't know if I was crazy or not. I did not think WDW costers had loops. I tried to google it when I got home to see what the RCRC looked like, but I couldn't find anything.
I'm glad Marlene still liked it & it didn't scare her!
I guess it's a good thing I didn't know because I would not have rode it if I had!

I can't believe you guys managed to do three parks in one day! The picture of Lexi holding up Spaceship Earth did turn out fantastic!

Thanks! I thought Lexi's turned out really good too. I wish Levi's had turned out better because it was his idea for the picture, but I couldn't get him to turn his hands out the right way.

We're pre-ordering PhotoPass for the first time in August, and I know we'll be doing what you guys did-- stopping a every photographer!!

I've been in a photopass share for both of my trips & I love it! Warn your family ahead of time that you're going to stop at every photographer during the trip so they will not complain! You will get a ton of great pics & you will be able that your purchased the CD! Are you going to do a PTR or TR?

 

[onescgirl]

hi, amy!! Woohoo for the awesome updates!

thanks!

the green army man interaction was absolutely hilarious! I probably would have screamed just like you! Too funny!

we were definitely suckers!

i'm glad that y'all like sci-fi. Mike and i tried it back in '09 and weren't really impressed, but i think a lot of it had to do with our cm. Maybe we'll try it again one day!

i think just sitting in the cars was the coolest thing. And, it was a nice break from the heat. You & mike do need to try it again!

yeaa for you for riding rocknroller coaster! It does take off kinda fast!
I've never heard of those american dream drinks. What are they made of? They definitely looked cool--we may have to try those next time.

i wish i had ordered one, but i'm always stingy with my snack credits. The blue & red were ice-ee's. I don't know if it was blueberry/strawberry flavored or unflavored. And, the white was vanilla ice-cream. Very good, i tried a little bit of lexi & levi's!

i'm so loving this report, especially right now when i want to go back to the world so badly. Reading this helps ease the pain a little!

thanks. I want to go back too. Lexi begs every week to go back. But, reading all the reports makes me more sad than easing my pain! With as much as you & mike travel, i'm sure it will be very soon!

wow!!!! Cannot believe you did three parks in one day and went to the espn club, glad my dh is at work, that is his dream for a bathroom. i don't get it and won't allow it

go ahead & install a flat screen in your bathroom for father's day!

love all your pp pictures, that is how i was especially since i forgot to pre-order it, love all the posing, your kids are too cute.

i know, you want to get your $ worth. At the end, you're glad that you took the time to stop because of all the pictures you end up with.

can't wait to see what you did the next day

our last full day, boo-hoo!

sounds like a fun time sorry to hear that lexi hit her head, glad she ended up being ok. I loved the look on levi's face during those photopass pictures, he clearly just wants to get out of there. I think it's a guy thing because my oldest brother is the same way. Those american dream floats looked great now i kind of want to try one.

levi was ready to go. And, i didn't post all the pictures i already made levi take coming in the entrance of ak, in front of the tree of life, etc... Before we made it to there!!!!

The float was good. Next time you're in the american world showcase, stop & get one!

wow what a long day you guys had, but how awesome that you were able to see three different parks on the same day, and got some awesome photopass pics besides!

we are crazy running around that much, but we did have a great day. And, lots of great pictures from 3 parks!

those american dream slushies look really good, i can see why your kids liked them so much.

i wished later i had bought one for me, but i'm always stingy with my snack credits!

can't wait for more

thanks!

♥

 

[skier_pete]

It is. Red & blue slushie w/vanilla ice-cream in the middle.

Holy moses! That sounds just awesome. Our family would totally love that. I've just put it on my list of top 10 Disney World treats, and I've never even had one. Thank you (and DisneyDreamingDebbie) for that suggestion. I'll be slurping one come next November. We'll take a picture for our next TR!

Looked it up on allears because curious as to price:
The American Dream - frozen strawberry, vanilla ice cream, and frozen blue raspberry $3.99

Perfect use of a snack credit.

 

[Momof2Disneyboys]

Great update Amy! I'm so glad everyone enjoyed RNRC. You do have to try to hold your head back during take off though. I have had my head banged around a few times. But that take off is the best!!!

The American Dream float looks very yummy. I have never seen on of those. We'll have to give it a try this August!

 

[marvali]

I just noticed this past weekend that Jack-in-the-box has a mint Oreo milkshake. I will have to go this weekend to get one!!!!

First it was that ugly urnge stuff, and then being a ride wimp! Finally I found something we share in common!! Mint Oreo milkshakes!!! YUMMMMM!!! Have to check out JITB and try them out!

Some really good updates, and love a lot of those pictures! Especially that one of Brad and Lexi walking ahead of you! That is so precious of Dad and his little girl walking hand in hand like that! Have to try one of those almond pretzels next trip! They sound delish too.

Crazy all the bins Disney must have for all the lost stuff, but I guess we shouldn't be surprised! I imagine they could fill up a few of those bins on a daily basis!

Cool being on spring break this week! We are too, although it doesn't matter much with my work schedule right now.......

 

[JessicaFaye508]

YAYY for an update!!

I've gone to comment on this twice but I just haven't been able to post it yet! But here I am haha

First off, I WANT ONE OF THOSE SLUSHIES! I didn't even know they existed!! I'll have to grab one on my next trip! I love slushies. I always get a giant red one when I go to the movies and I drink the whole thing. (it's probably not good for me... but hey. whatever )

I'm sad Lexi's head was hurting after RnR! I think I remember one of my friends telling me to keep my head back on that ride back in the days before I rode it. So I have always been very concious of keeping my head back!

All of those Photo Pass Pictures are adorable!!

I just love your updates yay! Such a cute family trip!

 

[onescgirl]

3 parks in one day! ? ! Wow!! I am impressed.

thanks!

i have never been on rrc, so i appreciate your review. I think i can now safely say... I can skip it. I can just imagine i would probably end up with a headache too. I hope that lexi's head felt better not long after you were off the ride.

lexi did feel better after she took some tylenol. How are you on other roller coasters? The take off was the only bad thing & it is over with very quick.

the snacks in epcot are so yummy. I love the american dream and the sweet pretzel. Both are my favorites... Yum

i know, i wish i had one of the pretzels now!

great updates!!!

oh my goodness! First of all what is an american dream float and second where can i get one?? That looks so good!

you can get it at the american showcase in epcot. You can use a snack credit for it, so it's a good deal for a credit!

you had a busy day, three parks! Rnrc is one of my favorites but everytime it is about to take off i start getting nervous mainly because of the take off. I feel like i can never time it with my breathing and it feels for about 5 seconds like i will never breath again. I'm so glad you had such a fun day! Sorry about the rude castmember at tot.

that's probably how i will be from now on when i ride it. Since i know it takes off fast, i'll be nervous the whole time waiting for it!!! I was sitting there all chilled out this past time waiting to get started.

wow 3 parks in one day...i would of crashed too! Ha!

Hmmm...almond pretzel? That sounds really yummy!

it was very good! I wish i had one now, i'm starving!

yay for spring break!!

we are having the best time this week with no school. We went to movies & park yesterday & bike riding today.

love the photopass shots on the way to tot. How not nice of that cm to say that to lexi but yay for that man being nice to her about it - am sure she needed to hear something along them lines and not what the cm was telling her.

thanks. I was kind of shocked how irritated the girl was. I've read where others have chickened out, so i know we weren't the 1st. Then, that may have been problem with her. She may get tired of taking people down

i'm another one that is not looking forward to rnr coaster.

have you been on it before?

again love the pp shots of you and levi at ak! Wow at covering three parks in one day - was it easily manageable?

it was very manageable, but we didn't do a lot at park #2 & #3. But, we even had a couple of other stops. We went to t&t center & went to espn club.

lol at the espn bathrooms - they do look cool! Am going to have to remember to try the american dream float and almond pretzel

i want the jalapeno pretzel i read about after i got back!

♥

 

[onescgirl]

enjoyed the update, nice park touring for the day, 3 parks

i have went to one park,left went to one other and back to the original, but dont think i have hit 3 in one day before.


i you never do 3 parks in a day & have your days better planned than we did at the end of that day! It was all good, we were just chillin walking everywhere.


did the pretzel have almond pieces on it, or just the flavor?

i'm such a slacker not getting a picture of it. I'll have the total hang of taking pictures of food the next time i go.
It had almond slices on it. It was great. But, i really want the jalapeno pretzel that you talked about in your tr!!!!

i can't believe the tvs in the bathroom at espn! Those are some big sports fans!

you need to go there on your next trip & get the "thumbs up" pic in the stall watching tv!

what a crazy day you had! 3 parks in one day would tire anyone out. You are very brave for going on rnrc. I just don't do loops! Funny how you didn't know it went upside down

if i had known before hand there were loops, there would be no rnrc talk in my tr!

love the update!!!

thanks!

so glad lexi loved rnrc!! That ride is so much fun! The launch is the best part!

are you crazy??? Jk, i'll be better prepared for it next time!

sorry her head was hurting it's no fun to not feel good in dw.

Your pp pics are awesome! I love the ones of you and levi by ee!

thanks, those are some of my favorite of the week & i feel like they are just priceless getting some mom/son pics! .

Those espn bathrooms are so funny! Definitely designed by a man!

will i see any frump pics in those bathrooms?

mmmm...i'm gonna have to try that american dream when i'm there this summer! Looks so yummy and refreshing!

sad that the trip is starting to wind down. but those pics of lexi and levi holding up spaceship earth are great!

just one more full day left

i just started reading your trip report. It is great! Thank you!

thanks, glad to have you here!

i dont think i could ever handle 3 parks in one day. Wow!

I have to have one of those american dreams. I love icee's. My kiddos do too, thanks to the fact that i craved icee's constantly while pregnant.

me too! I craved coke floats & i think i stopped by sonic everyday to order one when i was pregnant.
We stopped at the store today so each of us could get a icee!

♥

 

[onescgirl]

awesome update! Can't wait for more!

thanks!

those american dream floats look very tasty, can't wait to try them one day!

make sure you try one the next time your at epcot!

love that pic!

Sounds like a busy, but fun filled day!

I'm making a note about rnrc and the crazy take off. Thank goodness my guy has a little over four inches before we tackle that!

do you think he will be a daredevil & want to try it? How about you? I'm glad levi is not as chicken as me, but i think lexi has taken after me!!

too bad about the crowds dying down just after you left ak. Those pics were definitely worth the visit though! Loved 'em!

you right. I'm glad i did get some great pics of just levi & me even if we only did ride 2 things while we were there.

i don't think i've ever noticed anyone with that red, white, & blue float before. Looks nifty! I never seem to remember this stuff once i'm in the park, but i wanna try one now!


your boys would love one. I think they are just too cute looking too!

holy moses! That sounds just awesome. Our family would totally love that. I've just put it on my list of top 10 disney world treats, and i've never even had one. Thank you (and disneydreamingdebbie) for that suggestion. I'll be slurping one come next november. We'll take a picture for our next tr!

looked it up on allears because curious as to price:
The american dream - frozen strawberry, vanilla ice cream, and frozen blue raspberry $3.99

perfect use of a snack credit.

i'm glad you looked up the info! You are right in that is a great deal for snack credit! Can't wait to see a pic of your dd with one.
I make a picture calendar for me & grandparents. I used the one of lexi & levi slurping up theirs for our july month!

great update amy! i'm so glad everyone enjoyed rnrc. you do have to try to hold your head back during take off though. I have had my head banged around a few times. but that take off is the best!!!

that take off put me into shock & seeing the loop really did me in! I'll be prepared next time & have my head back & remind everyone else to do the same!

the american dream float looks very yummy. I have never seen on of those. We'll have to give it a try this august!

august would be the perfect month to have one when you're so hot walking around ws!

♥

 

[onescgirl]

first it was that ugly urnge stuff, and then being a ride wimp! Finally i found something we share in common!! Mint oreo milkshakes!!! Yummmmm!!! Have to check out jitb and try them out!

is it both being a wimp & mint oreo milkshakes that we have in common?
I forgot all about jitb having that shake! I still havn't got one! I'll let you know when i try it.
I hope we do better in football this year, because i'm going to give you heck about it!!!!!


some really good updates, and love a lot of those pictures! Especially that one of brad and lexi walking ahead of you! That is so precious of dad and his little girl walking hand in hand like that!

i know, i thought it was too precious too. She's my shopping buddy, but she's definitely a daddy's girl!

have to try one of those almond pretzels next trip! They sound delish too.

it was very good. I'll have to see what all you used your snack credits on & i'm curious on how you like the ddp.

crazy all the bins disney must have for all the lost stuff, but i guess we shouldn't be surprised! I imagine they could fill up a few of those bins on a daily basis!

i know, crazy. I would have loved to see what all they had.

cool being on spring break this week! We are too, although it doesn't matter much with my work schedule right now.......

poor baby! At least your wife get's to enjoy it. I did work m & t. And, brad had to work too, of course, but he is taking tomorrow off.

yayy for an update!!

I've gone to comment on this twice but i just haven't been able to post it yet! But here i am haha

that's how i am. I read a lot of tr on my ipod touch, but i don't post from it, so it takes me a while to post sometimes.

first off, i want one of those slushies! I didn't even know they existed!! I'll have to grab one on my next trip! I love slushies. I always get a giant red one when i go to the movies and i drink the whole thing. (it's probably not good for me... But hey. Whatever )

i can't believe a disney frump did not know about the slushie. And, you stay so close to where it's at!
I'm addicted to coke icee's. I bought one today. Lexi & levi always get a blue one just because they like the color.



i'm sad lexi's head was hurting after rnr! I think i remember one of my friends telling me to keep my head back on that ride back in the days before i rode it. So i have always been very concious of keeping my head back!

i will definitely have my head back next time and probably my eyes closed too so i will not see any loops ahead of me!

all of those photo pass pictures are adorable!!

I just love your updates yay! Such a cute family trip!

thanks, you're too sweet

♥

 

[marvali]

BTW, I gave you a shout out on Liesa's TR! She said she hasn't seen you there yet, but to invite you to head on over!

As for football season, I don't think you should get your hopes up......only lead to more disappointment!!!

 

[SRUAlmn]

YAY for Spring Breaks! You have time to post it and I have time to read it I really enjoy reading your reports. Your family is so adorable and you vacation like we do....it's just about having FUN together We've done 3 parks in one day before too and it's just so much fun Enjoy the rest of your break and Easter

 

[TanzUnited99]

Hi Amy! I tried to quote your response to my original post but was unable to do it!

Am glad you are enjoying the Spring Break! Got to love not having school! We may be going for a picnic in the park this weekend, if the weather holds up!

I have not been on RnR Coaster before - Sept is going to be our first trip to Disney World!! I can't wait...am hoping we will get the bug and return again! However, I do not like upside down loops and if I do ride it will be solo so am not sure if I will have the courage or not!

Wow, you guys got a lot done on that one day!

I have heard about the Jalapeno pretzel! It is already on my snack list.

Looking forward to hearing more about the trip.

Tanz
