[WDW Poly Princess]

I am running WAY behind today!!! We're hoping to get on the road by 3, but I'm not too sure!

I had 2 doc appointments today, and now I'm good to go! (More nose shots! Ouchie! But I didn't have to get the hole cut in my ear drum, so YAY!)

I am running around all crazy getting things ready to go- I just sat down to eat really quick before I fall over! If the hotel I'm at tonight has internet, I'll do my best to update from there!

If not, the next time I post, I'll be at WDW!!!!!!!!!

Thanks to everyone who has been reading so far! I can NOT believe this is already 50 pages! My entire last trip report was only 40, and I thought IT was long! Your comments have really made me happy, and I'm so excited that I get to see some of you this week! But I love you all!

Safe travels Crystal! Can't wait to hear all about your adventures.

 

[MA pigletfan]

Have a wonderful time..we will be waiting anxiously to hear of your tales of piracy!

 

[Hedy]

Bye!

The weather is looking up for you Crystal! I walked outside and it was breezy, and I thought of you being able to wear jeans.
Which in retrospect is kind of a strange thought to be having at 6am.

Have fun!

Safe travels!!!

[lauren_elizabeth]

Can't wait to read all about it!

 

[tiggerbell]

[Disneygrl36]

Maybe I'll see you at Magical Express tomorrow Crystal.

Have a marvelous trip & happy Disneyween!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's time to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Kristina]

Yay ! Glad to see the day has finally arrived! Loved your last report ! Have an amazing time!!

As of today, I'm officially on vacation (although I don't leave for WDW until SUnday) \m/ !!

I MAY have access to a laptop while I'm down there. If I run across the ubiquitous Crystal, I figure this trip report may be as best a place as any to post anything.

i'm north of the city too, perhaps we're neighbors

Y'never know ... When I moved back into the area, I had an apartment in Bensalem sort of near Neshaminy Mall. A few years back I moved into a house a few more miles up the 95 corridor, in the Langhorne area.

The above is a little off topic, but when you frakin' hit 50+ pages on a pre-trip report that's got to be expected

I just found this report (I know, I'm pretty slow), but you sound so great and I love your whole report sofar. Can't WAIT to hear the details from your trip.

We'll be down there around the same time as you. I don't know if I caught the actual dates you'll be at the party, but we're going on the 28th and the 30th - so perhaps we'll bump into each other, that would be cool!

It was cool finding out you are a bellydancer - I am as well. I started a year or so ago, so I'm by no means great, but it's a blast. I also, do tribal style. I love how you incorporated that into your costume for the party!!

Also, another Stitch lover here - and we must have shared a kindred brain cell because I also am bringing my Stitch doll along (I have the one that talks back to you, I have to admit I'm mildly in love with him) and got him some pirate attire to match fiancee and I in our pirate garb. It even came with a little eye patch, parrot and sword. I almost cried it was so cute when I put it on him. He shall travel the world with us in pirate style.

So I made it through most of this report - HOLY MOLY, 51 pages. I have to admit I skimmed through a bunch to catch the jist. I can't believe I hadn't found this report until now so I had much catching up to do. But I am waiting to hear back the wonderful stories of your journey.

You chickas have a great time now! I'll be waiting for all the details when you can get them posted!!! Woohoo! You're gonna be at Disney!!! The dream is finally a reality!! All the planning has paid off (boy do I know that feeling!)

Well, I've been MIA for a few weeks and I am just now back on to catch up. Looks like I missed you but if you get online while at Disney, Have a GREAT trip! And congrats on the job. I started a new job (I'm a teacher in a new district - like Kellylou) and oh my gosh...it has been crazy. I have taught for 10 years and this year seems like my first year again...working twelve hour days! That why I am never online anymore and can't find the time to catch up on reading TRs or posting to my own. Anyway, I'm still waiting on my job to slow down, but I hope yours does quickly! But, hey, it is a job...which pays our way to the Mouse.

Oh, and I am in metro Atlanta...about to move into an apartment for the first time ever (I owned a house before, then moved in with my ex-fiance...well he wasn't an ex at the time....but, I digress) and rent out in the burbs is upper 600's - upper 700's for a 1 bedroom, 800 - 1200 for a 2 bwedroom (depending on size). I'm getting a two bedroom just cuz I am used to house space. 300 - 400?!? Thats great...though the cost of living must be less there.

Anyway, enough blabbing! Hope you are having a blast!

Yippee, we are in Orlando right now! The sun is finally peeking through the clouds. I hope we have a great day today!

Y'never know ... When I moved back into the area, I had an apartment in Bensalem sort of near Neshaminy Mall. A few years back I moved into a house a few more miles up the 95 corridor, in the Langhorne area.

i definitely know the Bensalem area - my roommate is from there. we live in the abington area now.

i am dying to know what Crystal is up to right now. probably meandering through one of the beautiful parks, taking hundreds of pictures....lucky duck!

Hey, Disneyweenies!

I'm taking a break at OKW to rest my poor little feet before MNSSHP tonight, so I thought I would internet it up for a while!

Disneyween is off to a great start! We did Food & Wine at Eppycot last night, followed by Illuminations, and then an amazing night at the Adv Club. Many pictures and stories coming up when I get home, of course!

I have met one whole DIS-er so far (Hi, Jason!)- where the heck are the rest of you? Get your booties over to the Adv Club Monday night, or Tuesday...or Weds...well, you get the point!

Katie and Sherice will be coming over in about an hour to get ready for the party- I wish I had time for a nap! All this vacationing is wearing me out! It's a good thing my body is used to no sleep!

I've had a few rough spots on the trip so far, but for the most part, I can honestly say that I'm really, really happy. You guys know by now how much I *needed* this trip-- I can't begin to tell you how good it feels to get back to being me, if that makes sense.

I took some camera phone photos of our mascot Jack while I was waiting for my luggage to arrive at OKW, so those are up on Flickr now. I've also been uploading from my cell phone to YouTube- the videos there probably won't make sense until I tell the stories, though!

Brocktoon-I'll see you at the Cloob on Halloween, if not before!

If anyone else is at the World and wants to meet up, I have internet until tomorrow afternoon, so shoot me a PM!

 

[babieemelly]

Yay, a live update! I hope you're having a great time, Crystal. After following along with your plans for SO long I can't believe that you're already in the middle of your trip. And I know how much you've been looking forward to MNSSHP so live it up and have fun!!
