"ENCHANTED TALES with ROB" - A Birthday/Christmas DISer Celebration! **NEW TR LINK**

[gracer9977]

Wow Still no Stacey and on your birthday no less!!! Very uncool!

I absolutely love your shirt though. Glad she was able to spend your birthday with you.

Congratulations on breaking your EE record from your last trip. Great pictures. I love the guy sleeping. My brother and my niece did that in one of our EE pics. They are both in the front "Fast Asleep" one of our favorite ride photos ever.

Gorgeous pictures of Disney waking up and the pics from EE.

So happy it is finally your birthday update and your day has started off so well!

Love the shirt Rob! Awesome!

I hadn't given much thought to spending a birthday at WDW before, but having spent my last one there I can now say it's AMAZING! I don't love drawing attention to myself, but even I warmed up to all the birthday greetings! It's really a special way to celebrate.

Wow! 8 turns on EE? Great start to the day!

 

[JulieODC]

What an amazing way to start your BIRTHDAY!!!!

 

[JessM]

Yay for your Disney birthday!! Such an excited day, I can't wait to hear ALL about it!

I also love watching Disney wake up, its so peaceful! I love your lake view!

I had a feeling you would be visiting your mountain first thing. I can't believe you broke your record of 8 times in a row! Congrats! I tried to convince my parents to try for it, but they insisted they were too old we did ride it more than once that day though, so that was good haha.

The ride photos are too funny! I also appreciate the sleeping guy, flawless pose by him

 

[annie170]

What a great way to start your birthday!

Sleeping guy is pretty funny!

EE 8 times in a row?! Thank goodness you didn't lose your wallet this time around!

 

[wiigirl]

What an amazing way to start your BIRTHDAY!!!!

Exactly!

 

[geckodani]

♫ It's your Birthday and you'll ride Everest 8 million times if you want to. ♪

So jealous. I love that ride. But it might not love me. I almost passed out last year. I also had not eaten yet... so this year we're going to try breakfast first and see how we do!!!

Can't wait to hear about MGM!

 

[Jennifer48]

No Stacey?! I hope that was fixed soon! Priorities.

 

[DisneyKid4Life]

Yay it's birthday day!

Great early morning Pop photos

Riding EE is a GREAT way to start your birthday! Glad you beat your previous record, love the ride photo with the sign!

I've been a victim of forgetting to eat at Disney..it's not a fun feeling!

YAY!!! I was so excited.

It's so pretty in the morning (as is everywhere in WDW).

It worked out so well and I was SO HAPPY to beat my personal record. Ah Thank You!!!

You are so right. I was feeling not quite right after the 8th ride so I knew it was time.

Oh man, still no Stacey on your birthday?! You make up for it with the AWESOME shirt, though!

Good job on looping Everest! Definitely a great start to your birthday.

Excited to hear about the Dismeet!

Hehe, ALWAYS have a backup plan. It was actually ok for the morning because I was in such a rush to get to Everest, that having no distraction was a good thing.

It was perfection!!!

EEEE coming soon!

Woo hooo it's your BIRTHDAAAAYYY!!!!

I always seem to get up before the alarm goes off in Disney, too. Who can sleep in Disney?! But at home? Forget it.

Your shirt is epic. Seriously. Best shirt idea... EVER! Did you send a picture of you wearing it over to Stacey?

8 times on Everest is AWESOME! My son would probably LOVE trying to make that goal happen!

THANK YOU!!!!

Haha, exactly. Me TOO. There's just too much excitement in the air.

Aww thanks! No, I didn't send a photo, lol.

It was so fun. I really wanted to get to 10, but my empty tummy was telling me NO!

Birthday!!!!!!!! Who can sleep at Disney, that's a tough one to pull off. I love that shirt. I know you got compliments on it. I spent my birthday at the Animal Kingdom too.

I know, I don't even know why I set an alarm (I guess as a precaution), but I never ever actually need it. I loved that shirt too, but you'd be surprised how few actually knew who it was. I'll have more on that later. Having EMH at AK was just perfect to start my Bday.

Awwwwwww Disney birthdays are the absolute best, aren't they? I specifically planned my trip around my birthday back in September... Just nowhere else I'd rather be!

Wow, 8 times! My stomach is doing somersaults just thinking about it!

Your shirt is awesome!!!

I was just so excited to FINALLY be there on my actual day. There's just nothing like that feeling.

Haha, by the time I hit 8, my stomach was yelling at me for food.

Aww thanks. It was just necessary.

 

[DisneyKid4Life]

I don't think my body would make it through one time on that ride. Good job!

Haha, I just love that ride SO MUCH, it was the only suitable start for my birthday.

Happy birthday!!! I think it is so amazing that you got to do Disney on the actual day of your birthday&what a treat! Also your start to the day is majorly impressive. I did 3 rides in a row on EE last time I was there and started to feel majorly jostled. I don't think I could do 8 in a row! The freedom to do something like that when the spirit moves you seems like a really great part about doing a solo trip, too. Can't wait to read more!

THANK YOU!! Birthday trips are great, but actually starting a trip on that day is off the charts. Haha, by the 8th I was starting to feel it and knew that I needed to eat or potentially ruin the rest of the day.

Well it's settled. I need to spend my birthday at Disney some time. Do you think it's too late for me to get there by tomorrow? Maybe I'll have to shoot for next year!

LOVE the shirt!

Wow, 8 rides in a row?? Awesome! But on an empty stomach? Wow, tough stuff! Love the Best Birthday sign!

Excited to read about your first DisMeet!

It's never too late Wendy (oh wait, now it is). There's always next year. It really is a unique feeling.

Aww Thanks!!!

By 8 it was starting to take a toll so I knew I better eat. THANK YOU, it was critical to get that sign on camera.

YAY!! Disney Birthday!!! Woohoo!!

Aww THANK YOU!!!!! I highly recommend it.

Ahhh what a great way to start your birthday! Of course it worked out nicely to have EMH at AK that day so you could challenge your EE record. Well done! I can clearly see Stacey in the EE photo that only has your arm. She seemed to enjoy the ride.

Too bad not all the photos turned out. Loved your poses last time and it looks like you had a new one or two. Very nice.

You sure are a patient man. You're not indignant and calling management to have the Stacey TV issue resolved!

It was perfect Brenda. When I found out that AK had EMH for that day, I just knew it had to happen. It wasn't easy to get to 8 though, lol. I guess one of the benefits of my EPIC FAIL was that Stacey wasn't blocked.

Yeah, I really don't know what happened. I know I could contact Disney, but I just can't be bothered. I know I was putting the photos on the card in bunches, so it's likely they just never made it on.

Haha, well, for the morning it was probably a blessing as I didn't need any distractions. Heck I might STILL be sitting in the room otherwise, lol.

 

[DisneyKid4Life]

Go Rob...it's your birfday.....

Still no Stacey?! What a bummer. However, very appropriate that you wore her shirt that day.

Awwwwww....but gangnam style EE riding would be so fun.

Sign fail!

It's okay, you don't have to prove you rode it 8 times. We believe you!

Um, the appropriate term would be personning.....

I do sleeping guy sometimes too! Girl....person...well you know!

Ah I was so pumped!!!

Total bummer, but perhaps a blessing in disguise. And I DID have my backup plan!

Oh I so agree... Stupid Disney and their rules for safety.

EPIC fail... just EPIC!! But oh well, I had 7 mores tries to get it right.

Aww thanks. I have no idea what happened to those photos, but I'm not concerned. The memories are still in my head safe and sound.

YES!!!! Personnning!! THANK YOU!!

Haha, it's a great pose that I am now stealing.

I remember you posting the "Let's do this" on facebook that day!!! LOL

That guy who looked like he was sleeping is making me laugh out loud.

You are brave for doing the YETI with nothing on your tummy. EEEEKKK!!!

Really??!! That's So Cool!!!

I love that pose. I have no idea why I've never done it.

Haha, it wasn't bravery so much as it was anxiousness. I just couldn't wait to get there. It's not something I recommend though.

I have been so far removed from the trip reports section that I didn't know you started this! So excited to read about your trip

YAY Rachel!!! So happy you're back!! Just barely started, so you've missed very little.

I love EE, but I don't if I could ride it eight times in a row. You are my new hero Rob. Looking forward to reading about your DISMeet.

Aww thank you. If I had eaten something I would have gone for 10. Something for next time.

 

[DisneyKid4Life]

I loved your comment about watching Disney "wake up". That is one of my favorite parts of my Disney trips!

Ahh it's just perfection everywhere you look. And just so peaceful.

Wow Still no Stacey and on your birthday no less!!! Very uncool!

I absolutely love your shirt though. Glad she was able to spend your birthday with you.

Congratulations on breaking your EE record from your last trip. Great pictures. I love the guy sleeping. My brother and my niece did that in one of our EE pics. They are both in the front "Fast Asleep" one of our favorite ride photos ever.

So happy it is finally your birthday update and your day has started off so well!

Very uncool indeed. Forget about fixing MyMagic+... FIX THE TV!!

It worked out well given the circumstances. This way she was with me all day.

Aww thank you. Thank goodness I only needed to get to 8. Haha, yeah, sleeping guy was great. I need to do one.

THANK YOU!! The morning's are just so peaceful and pretty.

Love the shirt Rob! Awesome!

I hadn't given much thought to spending a birthday at WDW before, but having spent my last one there I can now say it's AMAZING! I don't love drawing attention to myself, but even I warmed up to all the birthday greetings! It's really a special way to celebrate.

Wow! 8 turns on EE? Great start to the day!

Aww Thank you Shannon. It was absolutely necessary. Hopefully it's Maddie approved, lol.

It really is wonderful. There's just an extra "feeling" to spending that special day in that place. And, not gonna lie, I LOVE the attention.

It was perfect, it really was. And the day really has only just started.

What an amazing way to start your BIRTHDAY!!!!

It was so great and a perfect way to start the day.

 

[DisneyKid4Life]

EEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

Oh me too. There's just something extra special about it in Disney World.

Oh yes, it was necessary. EMH just sealed the deal. It was getting rough though on an empty stomach.

It's a great pose and one I'm ashamed to have never done. It seems so obvious!

What a great way to start your birthday!

Sleeping guy is pretty funny!

EE 8 times in a row?! Thank goodness you didn't lose your wallet this time around!

There was just no other choice with EMH staring me in the face.

Haha, that is indeed a great pose.

Bahahaha, well the day's still young. Seriously though, no lost wallets this time, thank God.

Exactly!

I could not agree more!!!

ABSOLUTELY!!!!

I just never took into consideration the affect NOT eating would have. Too much food before I can see having an affect. But not eating is not a good idea either. So yeah, I understand exactly how you were feeling.

No Stacey?! I hope that was fixed soon! Priorities.

Haha, I know right??!! Of all the things to have screwed up.

 

[JDUB]

Awesome Stacey tshirt Rob! I'm a little late on commenting but always a pleasure to join your TRs. I love the relaxed trip so far.
My wife and I are going solo (aka without 3 kids) at the end of this month and are staying at your "home" resort for the first time! We hope for the same views as your room. Top floor lake view but 60s section! Thanks for giving me my Disney fix while I wait for our next trip home!!!!

 

[CdnBuzzFan]

Awwww, Rob, it's so cute that you were too excited to sleep! I can't imagine doing Everest 8 times in a row. BTMRR is my thrill limit.

 

[natebenma]

Disney Math: EE x 8 =

What a fantastic start to your birthday day!

Great morning pictures at POP!

Love all of your pictures from EE, but my favorite is the broken track with EPCOT, HS and the resort areas off in the distance.

The interaction with the photo lady was really cute.

 

[caitlinnf]

Hi Rob! I've read all of your other TRs as a lurker, but I had to say hello because this trip sounds like it's going to be amazing!

 

[amazingact21]

That sounds like a fantastic way to spend your birthday morning. And I love that you set a new record for yourself. Some people would think 8 times in a row is too much, but to me that just sounds like a lot of fun.
The best i've ever done is 4 times in a row, on RNRC. I believe that and EE are 2 attractions you just can't do once.

Still no Stacey? That's weird. I know she was playing in our room, because my DS watched her every morning.

 

[danimaroo]

ROB I AM HERE! And in my excitement I accidentally typed RON and then started laughing because I thought of Ron Swanson... hahaha. I'm a goob.

Sooooo can I just say that I'm really excited for this TR? Because I am. And you had DISmeets which is even awesomer! That's right, awesomer.

I love all of your signs, you're the tops. Also, I got sad over no Stacey for you. I hope this is all solved soon because um, Stacey, hello. She's just such a huge part of WDW trips!

EE that many times?! You're my kind of friend. My only issue is that Matt is typically done after like... 3 rides on EE. It makes him dizzy, hahaha. He's more of a HM guy, no surprise there. Though to also be fair, I don't think I could pull off EE 8 times in a row, either!

I DIED at the sleeping dude in the front of your EE photo. Dead.

Glad you're writing another TR and I'm actually HEEEEERE!

 

[mrs mouse10712]

I'm late, but I'm here!! Very excited for this TR. I was there the same time you were!

Oh man, no Stacey really stinks. I hope it got fixed.

EE 8 times is an awesome way to start your birthday!
