Drama, Please End...Fun, Please Begin...A Sept TR Updated 10/31

[Stefy]

Sounds like a perfect end to your evening, apart from having to go home.

I like your tradition of doing Philhar at the end of the trip

Great MK update. For just bringing your point and shoot camera, your pictures came out great. Glad you found your Vinylmations.

for having no "crapmastic" things happen on this day.

Mark and I would LOVE to have breakfast with you one morning (or maybe even dinner at Maya Grill since we've never had dinner there and we always stay there).

So, here we are at our very last day.

Our flight didn't leave until 3 so we figured we'd get up early, check out, load our cars and see how much time we could spend at a park. We decided that our best bet would be DHS. My cousin had not seen the park yet and it is easy enough to get out of so we could stay there til the very last minute if we wanted to.

We headed over to POR to pick up my brother and decided that we'd use the last of our CS credits at the food court there. OMG, it was jammed. I mean, it was horribly crowded!

We were lucky enough to find a table and honestly, I didn't think that we would be able to. We all grabbed food and headed to the table.

After breakfast, we headed over to DHS. I was also happy that we were close to Hess because we had to fill the cars on our way to the airport so again, it was quite the convenient park for us to be at that day.

Our craptastic luck continued though. As we exited the tram, we saw a fire truck! Yes, a fire truck! I thought to myself, now what? I never found out why it was there. Joe took a picture with his phone but I wasn't camera ready when we got off of the tram.

We were too late to grab FP's for TSMM and I was bummed. Since it was our last day, I could not see spending over an hour in line waiting. We headed over here to check it out.

We went to see if the Big Cheese was around, and he was. So we stopped to visit and got our picture taken with him. He kept looking up at my brother since he's so tall. It was very funny actually.

After meeting Mickey we wre trying to decide where to go to next. My brother and Joe wanted to go to Tatooine Traders. The rest of us rode GMR, we had a really "interesting" guide, to say the least. I wonder if it was his first day/week on the job or something.

The creepiest thing happened....we got stuck in Oz. Those nasty little munchin things were singing away like fools over and over and over again. Sheesh, it was creepy!

I could sit in Philharmagic for hours, if they'd let me!

I hope we can do that some day. Dinner at Maya would be great. I just love that place!

Your trip sounds quite entertaining. I enjoyed all of the pics.

 

[Stefy]

Sounds like the crowds were starting to pick up as you guys were leaving.

Great pics of DHS, not a bad park to spend your last day

Not fun getting stuck on TGMR though, esp in that part. Its like getting stuck on IASM for half an hour, that song will stick with you for the whole day!!!

 

[KatMark]

Love the picture of all of you with Sorcerer Mickey. I love the Wizard of Oz, but if I got stuck with that song for a long period of time, I think I'd go a little nutso.

 

[charming23]

Finally caught up. Great updates. I can understand why you love Philharmagic so much it is awesome. I have an apple pie scented candle that brings me back to that scene everytime I light it.

So sad that we are nearing the end. It has been great to get to experience your trip with you.

 

[Victoriasmom98]

OMG --- getting stuck in Munchkinland?....Yeah, that definitely qualifies as your Crappy!!!!

 

[All7OfUs]

Sounds like DHS was your best bet for your last day! And no, I wouldn't have waiting in line for over an hour either- no matter how good a ride is, it's not worth that!

So you went to Anim. St., but didn't do a drawing?! I really enjoyed that on my trip!!

GREAT picture with Wizard Mickey!

Maybe they should have the yellow brick road lead to the emergency exit?

 

[oboedm]

I can't believe that your updates are almost over! Just got caught up today and I have been enjoying your report so much! You inspired me with your WL trip and I have a studio villa booked for Feb/March!

I love the Soarin' story-- I love fooling family members into things! =)

 

[Queenofallthings]

I got a little behind! I can't believe it's last day....

It was so nice to see you guys once last time....hopefully we can do it again.

I have just put Maya Grill on our list for next summer, that food looks delish and I have to agree with you on Sunshine Food Terrace..one of our fav's too!!!

 

[MaryAz]

I was behind....
Loved the PP pics. Especially the ones of you and Joe.
Really pretty hair clips
Fun Wishes Cruise
Sorry there was so much drama but it looked like a fun trip overall!

 

[Disneymommy2006]

Loved your trip report...I have one question how do you do free dining with AP's? We are going in 9 days and are thinking of upgrading to APs but I told my husband that I didn't think we could until the last day of our trip b/c we have a package to get the free dining??? Do you know??? Thanks for sharing your trip craptastic as it was!!!!!

Thanks.

The crowds were picking up a bit, but it seemed that way only for the most popular attractions.

Ugh, it was horrible getting stuck there!!!

Love the picture of all of you with Sorcerer Mickey. I love the Wizard of Oz, but if I got stuck with that song for a long period of time, I think I'd go a little nutso.

It was getting to the point where I wanted to cover my ears!

Finally caught up. Great updates. I can understand why you love Philharmagic so much it is awesome. I have an apple pie scented candle that brings me back to that scene everytime I light it.

So sad that we are nearing the end. It has been great to get to experience your trip with you.

I think I need to get one of those candles. I bet it's relaxing just thinking about Philharmagic when you light it.

I was so bummed to get to this point in my TR. Like reliving leaving all over again.

I did want to draw but no one else seemed interested. I told myself that there is always next year.

I actually started looking for a way to make my exit!

I think you will love WL. It's awesome there. I can't wait to hear how the studio villa is!!!

I really didn't think she'd take it that badly on Soarin.

I got a little behind! I can't believe it's last day....

It was so nice to see you guys once last time....hopefully we can do it again.

I have just put Maya Grill on our list for next summer, that food looks delish and I have to agree with you on Sunshine Food Terrace..one of our fav's too!!!

I think you will love Maya. Sunshine seems to have such a great selection. I don't think a lot of people realize that!

How are you and Jas doing? I have to get over to your TR to catch up!

THey have quite the selection of clips there. I could have gone crazy!!

We really enjoyed the PP session. Have you done one with the girls?

We have booked FD with our passes for the last couple of years. You will need to book a 2 day MYW ticket (it use to be one day) BUT you can get your money back after you check in and get your KTTW cards. What we did this year was take our KTTW card that had the MYW tickets on them (the ones we got when we checked in) to Guest Relations. At the same time we turned in our renewal vouchers for AP's. They took the cost of the MYW tickets off of our credit card. It sounds a bit complex, but it was super easy. This was the third year that we did this. That's how we were able to get FD.

I can't believe that I an close to the end of this TR. I will have at least one last installment plus final thoughts, do's and don'ts for next year, etc.

I hope everyone stays with me.

[Joyciemc]

Awww, I am sad that you are near the end of the trip report.

Yuck to being stuck on GMR! We got stuck on Splash Mt a few years ago and had Zip-a-dee-doo-da blasting at us for a long time. I imagine munchkins get as annoying as those chickens did!
