Dress in drag and do the hula! Disneylove1228 May 2010 - Day 3 STARTED! :)

[TokyoDina]

Hah too cute! Yeah we might have seen each other at the parks one of those days. Maybe but I know we when to MK on different days cause it rained all day almost when I was there. It was bad. But the other days were great! Geez there are a lot of people from GA on this board. Haha we'll have to all arrange a DIS meet in the ATL someday. When every I go to see the parents.

I love your shots of your castle its stunning! Great job!

 

[Raecheal]

Nice update.....I love the look on your face when your DH took the camera

 

[Nermel9]

Love the castle pics, I love when people take pictures of the castle at weird angles! I also love the ones inside of the mosaics, I don't know why, I never stop to look at them, I'm going to have to remember that for next time!

That shop you went in by HM is too cute...I think I've went in there maybe once, but I love all the Disney kitchen stuff!

Can't wait to read more!

 

[princess_momma]

Hey Kimmy! I've actually read through all of yours! LOL I don't think I ever posted anything b/c I was so far behind

Aww thanks for reading my disneymoon tr! I will def try to put this one up soon... I have 400+ pics!

You are totally right about ToT not being able to be BEAT! AHH! it's the best EVER! it's the only reason I go to MGM LOL

That's too funny!! I'm glad you've come out of lurkdom! My next tr will probably take much longer because I won't have so much free tiem at work! I can't wait to see your 400+ pics! That's incredibly. I'm hoping I have like a million on my next trip between 3 cameras and PhotoPass!!

I would go to DHS JUST for ToT!! I love that ride with my whole heart! It pretty much just feels like home to me!

Which specific building were you in at Pop? That's so exciting! I just love Pop. I love the lobby and the decor everywhere and just all of it! It's pretty amazing for a "value" I think.

I get annoyed when people get all up in my pictures too! That lady in the green tube top was quite distracting...but so was the guy wearing the "10 Gun Safety Rules" shirt. Would it be wrong if I called this a "you might be a redneck if" moment!! No offense to anyone...it just made me laugh!

Also, I know that you need the back on BTMMRR...but which spot is best on Space Mountain? I know you were in the front and holding your hubby's hands and felt like flying! Is the front best for this rollercoaster? They were refurbing it when I was there so I've sadly never been!

I LOVE short waits. I love that you just waltzed right on to everything so far, especially BTMMRR!! That's how it was when I went in Sept. Walk ons are just pure bliss. I'm TERRIFIED of going in August!!

That Tweedle Tea and Tweedle Yum tea looks amazing! I don't drink tea either but I want it! I love little clever plays on words for names of stuff-like nail polish! I want the job who comes up with all the awesome names at OPI!!

I am always calling it MY castle too!! I tell people I rent it out to Cinderella and every time it snows here, I get all sad and tell people I'm thankful her lease is almost up so I can move "back" into my castle! Even when I see it in the beginning of Disney movies, I'm like "LOOK! There's my home!!"

Can't wait for more!!

 

[MarieTheCat24]

Oooh All of your castle pics are so pretty. I love it when people take pics from different angles.

I also love the pics of all of the Mickey kitchen items. I think I need to stock up on those bowls!

 

[Disneylove1228]

Angie, I saw in your siggy that you started. YAY! WOW that is a lot of construction in the MK. Oh well.

Love the pics of the mosaics in the castle. So pretty. All of the pictures of you are so pretty

Hey Lynn! hahaha yes! finally, I started one... I feel like for the first time, we actually had a long "trip"... one to actually write a report about.. usually it's last second that we decide to go and then just go for it hahaha

Thank you! I love Castle pics you're so sweet! you're leaving SO SOON! eeeek!

Hahaha maybe! it actually didn't rain at all when we were there and were sooo thankful! we had gorgeous weather! Yes, LOTS of people from GA on here for sure! i love it!! let's do it! and thanks!!

Nice update.....I love the look on your face when your DH took the camera

hahaha thanks!! he gets that look... a LOT LOL

Love the castle pics, I love when people take pictures of the castle at weird angles! I also love the ones inside of the mosaics, I don't know why, I never stop to look at them, I'm going to have to remember that for next time!

Thank!! I love that shop! We go in there every time we visit! they have the BEST kitchen things right now... it keeps getting better... and my husband's wallet keeps getting smaller! hahaha!

That's too funny!! I'm glad you've come out of lurkdom! My next tr will probably take much longer because I won't have so much free tiem at work! I can't wait to see your 400+ pics! That's incredibly. I'm hoping I have like a million on my next trip between 3 cameras and PhotoPass!!

Can't wait for more!!

Hey girl!! Thanks for reading again! You're my fellow ToT buddy! LOL It can be your castle too, don't worry.. I'll share!! LOL!! j/k!! On space, it really doesn't matter where you sit... I personally like the front because it's funny... and the back is funny b/c you can see the others (kinda see.. it's SUPER dark now after they refurbished it!!) get pushed back and forth... idk, it's fun wherever you sit my hubby and i always hold hands.. I put mine behind me when we were waiting to get away from the loading dock and then just never let go! LOL it was funny!! You gotta ride it this time around!

At Pop, we were in the 80's building... it was AWESOME! We got to walk down our hall, down the next building on the same level.... walk down stairs and then it was like right in front of the buses! i loved it!

about the tea... i kind of regret not buying it... LOL!

Oooh All of your castle pics are so pretty. I love it when people take pics from different angles.

I also love the pics of all of the Mickey kitchen items. I think I need to stock up on those bowls!

Thank you!! Oh yes! They were beautiful! lol! ... I LOVE all the Disney themed kitchen stuff!

 

[Disneylove1228]

Well, originally... we were going to go to the GF to go get something to eat, but when I quickly realized (after we arrived, naturally) that there was really nothing there for a "quick bite"... we just decided to scope it out!

I've never been in there before. Yes, can ya'll believe it? I've been to Disney over 150 times and I've never been there before. AHHH!!

We took the monorail from Magic Kingdom over to the GF.... I love that ride!!


Upon arriving.... this is breath-taking...

went in to Basin White... thought of you, Tink!!!! hahaha!!

Sooo pretty!!

After taking it all in and deciding we weren't going to eat here.. we went somewhere else... where'd we go?!?

 

[Disneylove1228]

When we were leaving the GF, we really didn't know where to go at first.... we thought about going to the Poly, but I knew we had plans there in the AM, so I didn't want to hit that one twice.... so we stood out there by the Monorail for a few.... and I clicked while we were talking...

Then we knew what we were gonna do!!!.....
after a moment, DH had a really great idea!!!

Downtown Disney of course!

Can I tell you how much I LOVE DTD?! Ever since we came for our Disneymoon, we both think it's the coolest thing ever!




So, we went down to the bus stop.... and the first bus that pulls up... DTD! woohoo!
We had such good luck with buses and the monorails so far!

while on the bus, we talked about where we were going to get our munch on, and I thought of this place...

Mmmmhmm!!!

and yes, that's my redneck husband with the gun shirt, Kimmy ROFLMAO!! .. I actually got that for him! he is from AL... has a southern accent ... and he's very proud of his ways...

I however... think he's a work in progress

Hey! I get him to take me to Disney 8+ times a year!! he never came here before me! I just go with the flow.

We ordered... and then sat at our table..

Inside Wolfgang Express...

I know I ordered the BBQ chicken pizza... and he ordered a pizza with sausage and a bunch of other meat on it. It was SO GOOD! As always! We love this place!

After that, we walked around! I really wanted to get something sweet to eat!

Love this store! Very cute!

After looking around there for a bit, we went back out and looked around the other areas....

and then "stumbled" across this...

oh boy!!!

what a WAIT! holy cow, there were SO many people there!! but that's ok! We ordered a brownie sunday in a waffle bowl!

This thing desserved two pictures:

With flash

Without flash

LOL

After that gigantic caloric intake.... *sigh*...... it was time to call it a night!

Tomorrow's a new day.... what do we wind up doing and where do we go?!? ................ you'll have to see!

 

[princess_momma]

Hey girl!! Thanks for reading again! You're my fellow ToT buddy! LOL It can be your castle too, don't worry.. I'll share!! LOL!! j/k!! On space, it really doesn't matter where you sit...

about the tea... i kind of regret not buying it... LOL!

We can just switch it up...One weekend I'll have ToT and you'll have the castle, then we'll switch. The best sharing EVER!!

I'm so beyond excited for SM! I can't wait to ride it! I think its SO CUTE that you guys hold hands on rollercoasters!! It brings a tear to my eye because...prepare yourself for a sappy story!...there was this boy who I was very close to and cared about deeply when I was 15. I'm not sure how much lurking you've done on my tr's, but this boy died and I even have a tattoo for him and the first time we ever held hands was on a rollercoaster at our local amusement park. I've always thought it was the best place to hold hands! And I've never heard of anyone else doing it!! So I love hearing and SEEING that you guys did it!! So cute!!

Maybe if I find the tea when I go back I can ship you some! Then we can have a virtual tea party!

WOW the GF is so gorgeous!! I am dying to stay there one day! And I'll stay in the honeymoon suite with a big jacuzzi tub and go try out a new product from the Basin every single day!!

Hmm since you didn't get a quick bite at the GF...I'm going to guess you went to Captain Cook's at the Poly!!

 

[princess_momma]

Oh dang! We posted at the same time and I was wrong about the Poly!! Oh well!!

I burst out laughing so hard at your DH and his redneck shirt! That's hilarious!! I remember now all his goofy shirts on your Disneymoon!! How funny! I hope you didn't take any offense!! I LOVE "rednecks". Actually strangely enough, the guy I told you about in the last post was a total redneck and always wore shirts like that! I think they are hilarious too!!

MMMMM that ice cream looks so good!

P.S. When I find a guy, if he has ANY problems with Disney, can I send him to your DH to have a talk with him?

awww you commented!! i love when you post! LOL Yes, he alwas grabs my hands for almost all the rides... I always find that he's holding it he's a sweetheart. Yes, I did know that your someone special passed away... I didn't know how, or what the situation was exactly, but I can't even tell you how sorry I am for that. What happened?...(if you don't mind me asking!) I saw your post with the tattoo.... when you got it. There are no words. How neat that he did that too!!! Weird! You'll have to find another boy who does the same thing
he always tries to grab my hands when I'm on ToT, and I throw him off me so I can let go! LOL!!
I love your idea for the GF!! hmmm... lol!
and YES! get me that TEA! hahahahaha! I wish I had it!

I bursted out laughing when we posted at the same time! LOL!
ahhhh! no way, I'm not offended at all!!! I think it's funny!! I mean, hey... he's bad but not that bad He's super smart! My DH is a biologist, has a degree in emergency medicine, he's a pilot, owns a restaurant, an EMT, a paramedic, and now he's going to be a nurse anesthetist i have bragging rights! LOL you can TOTALLY send him our way.... he'll set him up straight! hahaha!!

Thanks!! Of course I am all over the Dis today!! I work at a car dealership and we had to come in and we are so DEAD!! I'm loving my Dis-time though!

Aw your DH sounds like a total package!! Sweetheart, smart, and a little bit country! (Sounds a little better than redneck!) Plus he wears hilarious shirts and goes to Disney all the time! You totally have bragging rights, he is SUCH a keeper!! What kind of restaurant does he own? And what do you do? Sounds like he does A LOT!! How fun!

My guy died about 4 and a half years ago in a car accident while driving under the influence. I would smack him once upside the head for that if I saw him now before just hugging him and loving him the rest of forever. Luckily there were no other cars involved.

I laughed that you don't let your DH hold your hand on ToT!! Do you throw your hands up in the air? I'm seriously like cracking up and just screaming with glee the whole time with my hands in the air and loving every second of it! It's so great!!

I'm glad you like my GF idea...of course, while I was there, I could never wear their bathrobes. I would be rocking my ToT one the whole time!! That's like my #1 must-purchase item this trip!! Maybe I'll wear it while I have some Tweedle Yum!!

 

[MickeyisBeast]

I love your GF pics!
Great update

 

[DisneyGirl2023]

subbing to your trip report i would love to live in florida and i would be sad to leave i hope you still go as often as you can after you move

 

[Sarah84]

Love your report so far, gorgeous photos

 

[MadiMouse]

I just found your TR and I am LOVING it! I just love Pop's food court! I think I walk around in there almost 30 mins before I decide what I'm getting. LMAO. I can't wait to read more!

 

[tinkgurl]

Ahhh..I'm away from the computer for a few days and I miss a few updates!

I love that little "cut across" bridge that you took pics of in Frontierland. We use it all the time instead of going on the other bridge that is right by the Splash drop.

I love that kitchen store in Liberty Square! We completely forgot to stop there in March though!

Wow, they really have come a long ways with the construction since we've been there!

I just love the inside of the Castle. It's so beautiful. A lot of people just rush by without even taking the time to look at it.

YES! You went to the GF! Isn't it just so beautiful in there?! I'm so glad you thought of me in Basin. Me and my "paparazzi shots".

 

[jenniferkeala808]

Hey! Sorry I missed a couple updates but I’m back. Great pics of the castle…oops! I mean YOUR castle! LOL! You’re too funny!! And that GF is breathtaking! I’ve never been there either!! Makes me want to go there next time! Great choice for dinner!!! Gotta love DTD!! Great pick from Ghirardelli! That place was always crowded when we went to DTD…Can’t wait for more!!

 

[HeatherBelle614]

I've always wanted to stay at the GF; it's gorgeous! I'll make it there some day!

Thank you for the inside pictures of WPE! We've never been and it's on my must-try list this trip. I've heard only fantastic things about it. We ate at the restaurant on two separate trips and thought it was terrible. (Awful food and service both times.) I was hesitant about WPE, but I'm wanting to give it a shot!

 

[Believeinfairytales]

Loved the photos of Everything! I really, really feel like I'm right there along with you. I didn't realize that was your hubby in the first picture that Kimmy was referring to wearing the shirt and then I was like, "Hey, there's that same guy in DTD!" Then I had to LOL at the "redneck" remark - that was the funniest thing ever!

Kimmy, I don't know you, but sending a big hug your way for losing someone close to you.

I'm sorry you've had to go through such a loss.
