What was SUPPOSED to happen:
Sleep a little later, arrive at Blizzard Beach for opening, stay until about two o'clock, go back to the hotel, shower and dress for dinner at O'Hana's, metting my Uncle Jerry and my cousin Kevin there, and then the boys were going Mini-golfing, and the girls were going to the Boardwalk.

What REALLY happened:
Well we all met in the food court, had breakfast, and went to the bus stop. Well, about NINE magic kingdom buses came in a ROW and then finally an AK and BB one came, but it was full, so we had to wait for the next one. Well two Epcot buses came, and then finally an empty AK and BB one. So we hopped on that, and drove to BB. We got off there and waited for the opening, when they opened it, by Jaja and Uncle Eric raced to the wave pool and we got great seats! So, we went on three rides, with out any waits at all, and then went in the wave pool for a while. After that we all went on the family raft ride, which was fun, but when i was getting out, the water was QUITE shallow and i slammed my knee against the floor, so i cut it up a big, but nothing that bad. So we just kind of swam around for a while, and then my brother, Bobci and Jaja and I went back to the hotel to get ready. So after everyone came back and showered and what not, we hopped onto a bus to Magic Kingdom, and road the boat over to the Contemporary. After waiting twenty five minutes, Chuchi, Uncle Wayne, Ian and Nate finally got there. What happened was that people got on the wrong buses, and the bus driver brought them ALL back to their hotels. But that's just the beginning of crazy buses :crazy: .... okay, so we all sat down, and next to us was a party of about the same number or people (around 23 people), and it was a dinner rehersal wedding thingie...so about half way into the dinner, they started singing happy birthday to someone in the resteraunt. Well, the bride-to-be became very upset about this, and stood up and started saying, "Your birthday doesn't matter to me! My wedding is tomorrow, you shouldn't be singing happy birthday to someone!" We were all very shocked that she started doing this. It was VERY rude. Alright, well on with the report...well dinner was excellent, and fun, too. After dinner, Myself, my sister, Paul, Matt, Uncle Wayne, ian, Nate, Uncle Eric, EJ and Brandon all decided to go mini-golfing, and the rest decided to go to the boardwalk. So, we hoppped on the monorail, and just when it started moving, Chuchi said she forgot her camera at the resteraunt. So, at MK the group going mini-golfing got off and the group going to boardwalk stayed on to go get Chuchi's camera. So, we are waiting at Swan and Dolphin Bus stop, because it is closer to minigolf, then a boardwalk bus comes, so my uncle eric (the leader of the group lol) says to get on that. So we do, and one we are about to leave, a Swan and Dolphin bus came, so Uncle Eric stood up and said we had to go on that one, so they opened the doors for us, and we go onto to the Swan and Dolphin bus. So we arrive there, and walk to Mini-golf, and then the phone rings, and its the other group saying they are now going to Downtown Disney instead of Boardwalk....so then we go to the Mini-golf place, and we are standing in line when they tell us its a 45 minute wait. Well, it was hot and no one was in the mood to wait, so we decided to just go back. Then the cell phone rings AGAIN and the other group decides to just go back to the hotel...So, we are waiting for the Downtown Disney bus for about 30 minutes, and it finally comes. Well, it goes to like seven other resorts, and then BACK to Swan and Dolphin, but FINALLY it goes to Downtown Disney. So we get off...and when we get off everyone on the bus follows us...i guess they thought we knew where we were going, okay so we are walking along that little curve thing near where they drop you off, so we decided it would be easier if we just cut through the little grass island. Well it turns out the little grass island is more of a little mud island, so when we get out we had mud up to our ankles, so we look back and there are 40 other people following us going through the grass island, we were hysterical laughing, it was so funny. So then finally we decide to just go back to the hotel, and finally, we arrived at Port Orleans. And then i saw my mom at the front desk, trying to make reservations for Wednsday (the next day) for Prime Time Cafe, and if you didn't know, making reservations for 23 people the day before isn't always easy..but we got them, and so we went to sleep, ready for the next day.
 
An interesting day everyone had! Too funny about wading through the mud

Thanks for posting!
 
Great report ~ Thanx for sharing.
 
wow - such a huge group, such a good report from a teen!!

I must try and find it's other chapters, now that I'm at work on the nice instant connection and can make replies and find all the board pages
(this is one of the many trip reports that distracted me and tangled up my feeble dial-up last night while I thought I was going to settle in and read all of the Very British saga)
