Five Years is a long time to wait…Day 8 & 9 Plans!

Sara, I didn't get to read your update (my daughter-in-law's aunt died this morning and I've been on the phone or texting her most of the day), but I just wanted to wish you safe travels and we will see you next week. We are looking forward to it. :goodvibes
 
Tomorrow is the day!! Can you believe it? I don’t know how I could have made it, waiting until August to leave! :scared1:

Update on the home front:
DD and I went and got pedicures and I got a manicure yesterday. This was a first for DD, and I am afraid she can never go back to normal life again! I tried to get the nail tech alone to ask her about Disney theming for our nails, but DD stuck to me like glue, so no Disney themes on our nails. DD did get a beautiful Hibiscus flower on her toes though.

The packing that I wanted to do last weekend still isn’t finished! I do have all the clothes that I want to take in baskets and all of the suitcases out and open, ready to be packed, but the packing still has to take place! I might have to break down and buy DD a carry on suitcase tonight, since hers is nowhere to be found, and believe me I looked!:headache:

I finished my touring plan cards and laminated them today and printed off a hard copy of our schedule as well! I also started my “oh no, we forgot to get ________” list, which I added a couple of items because of the issue that I woke up with today... a awful, horrible, can’t even talk, sore throat. It was so bad that I had to shake DS and DD awake, because I had no voice. :headache: This is happens to me all the time during season changes and temp. changes, due to my over sensitive sinuses. So after lots of tea and honey, Claritin-D, pain reliever, salt water, and lots and lots of water, I feel better right now. It will come back when I sleep and for sure in Disney with the hot, humid air mixed with the air conditioning. I hope to head it off with Claritin-D, that stuff works wonders!! I am picking up another box tonight before we go!

So that is it, we head out tomorrow:cool1::cool1::cool1:, I doubt I will have time tomorrow morning to post… so this very well will be my last post on my PTR… until the TR! So to end my post I will finish up with our last day at WDW plans:

Day 10! June 8, the dreaded day!

This day was originally planned to be a “kid’s choice” day, and kinda still is. I have made FP+ selections in the MK, just in case, but if the kids want to head back to DHS, we will, or Epcot, we will go, or AK, we might try and talk them out of it… just kidding, if they want to go we will! Although trekking from WL to AK is quite a ride! :rolleyes1

We will wake up and make sure everything is ready to go and head over to the Club Lounge for some breakfast before heading out. We are not on the dining plan for this day, so we will pay out of pocket. I didn’t make any ADR’s because I don’t know for sure where we will be. But where ever we go I am sure we will find something to eat!

Our flight leaves at 8:45pm, so we basically have the whole day to play! Eventually we will come back to the WL, we might swim or we might just hang out in the CL and relax. Before the Unmagical Express calls our name. I did find out this week that because we are flying AirTran, through Southwest, we are unable to check our bags at the luggage desk and head to the airport. Instead we will need to pick them up and take them on the bus with us and check them at the airport.

Hopefully we will have an uneventful flight home, and arrive home safe and sound, although I am sure we will be tired and sad!:sad2:
 
Wow!! Tomorrow is the day. So excited for you. I hope you have an amazing time and look forward to catching up with your TR later!

Back in the real world today. :headache::headache: We got home and straight to bed at around midnight last night. :coffee: DH is back at work at work this morning and I start classes tonight for the summer session and back to work tomorrow.:sad: Nothing like really bouncing back into real life!

DS didn't wake up until 1:30pm today and came down stairs in tears. When I ask him why he was crying, he said because he thought the plane ride home was a dream and he realized it wasn't. :sad:

We ended up with over 1500 personal photos and over 300 memory maker photos so I see a TR coming soon!!! :dance3::dance3: Plenty of tales of magical upgrades, Fast Pass plus woes and triumphs, impromptu Dis meets, magical meetings and moments, crazy heat, and lots and lots of walking!!

Welcome home! It really stinks, doesn't it? Your DS and I share the same sentiments.

Can't wait to read all about it. :goodvibes
