FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FOREVER...I'm NOT GOING HOME!! UPDATE DEC.30 PG 74

[PrincessCaitlin]

Wow, such great updates! Sorry to hear about your maingate pass though.

Hope the rest of your program continues to be excellent!

Thank you!

I still haven't gotten my new one though! I am hoping it comes soon!

Thank you!

I'm sorry about your Maingate

Thank you! I hope my new one comes soon!

The GFlo photo shoots are fantastic! I particularly like the the tree shots. It's very "Friends" to me for some reason. Wonderful!

Ok, since it's for your mom I will give you your Small World ride without any fuss. Actually, that's pretty darn sweet.

Yup, solo touring is surprising awesome. Do what you want, when you want, at your pace. What's not to love?

Thank you!

Awww thank you! I know you and I feel the same way about that ride

I love it!!

Sorry you lost your Maingate pass. It sounds like something that would happen to me.
Those pictures of you and your friends are really good.
You road most of my favorites and then some. Haunted Mansion and Pirates are my favorites at the Magic Kingdom.
I remember Florida rain very well. I used to spend a month every summer in Ft. Lauderdale visiting my in-laws. I got soaked many times.
Liz

Yeah I'm still waiting on my new one!

Thank you!

I love HM!

Yes Florida rain and I have a love/hate relationship. I love the rain because it cools down during it but hate it if I'm stuck in it!

I am so glad you and the girls had such a fun brunch! What a wonderful way to spend a birthday! I love that so much of WDW reminds you of the folks who miss you most

It was so fun!

I love that too!

I'm sorry to hear about your maingate pass. Hope you get it back soon and get to play around in the parks some more! Still, looks like you had quite the fun day. Haunted Mansion for life!

Love your pics from 1900 Park Fare and after! They should honestly have Mickey Waffles and gummy worms as an official addition to the buffet line. I'd probably go back for breakfast then.

I'm still enjoying them just have to buy a ticket before I do.

It was fun! I love HM!

Thank you! They do have Mickey waffles and gummy worms out at breakfast!

Those gluten-free Mickey waffles are very filling. I can usually only eat one or two. It was nice that you got some gummy worms with your waffles.

I like the picture you took of the Dumbo statue in the foreground and the castle in the background. I don't think I've seen a shot like that before. It looks really nice.

I bet you can't wait until your parents come for a visit. That will be fun going to Frozen at DHS together. It is always fun to do something new at Disney. Food & Wine will be new for us in September.

The lake that Sean took you to is huge. It looks very peaceful there.

I can only eat one especially after the rest of the yummy food they offer!

Thank you!

It turns out I will be seeing them sooner than I planned on!

that lake near Sean's looks lovely! What a fun photo shoot but oh, major drag about the maingate pass. A bit surprised it takes that long to be replaced though.


Fun updates

It is!

It has been such a long wait! I hate it!

Thank you!

Back from vacation and all caught up again!
Loved the pics of the girls peeking out from behind the trees and also the pic of the dock at sunset.
Since you were already made an honourary Canadian, I don't have to worry about it.
I do. Since mine might be revoked.... I've never seen the inside of Canada at Epcot!

I hope you had a great vacation!

Thank you!

You need to see it! I can't believe you haven't!

Oh my gosh, that rain!!! You poor thing getting stuck in it

I'm no so into cars, but I looove Cars! And I think the lime green truck would have gotten my vote

Hopefully you get (got?) your pass soon. You're obviously having a great time either way. And I totally understand the homesick part. As for IASW, I LOVE that ride because it reminds me of my childhood. Everyone sang the song to me for my birthday this year!

Yeah it happens quite a bit here

It was such a cool event!

I am hoping it comes soon! That's so cute!

That was nice of Sean to do a bit of a photo-shoot with you girls - those will make for some great momentos!

That one shot of the pier out into the lake by Sean's house is really pretty - just a lovely setting.

Bummer that you lost your maingate pass though - I know I would have been freaking out ... but glad it seems like you can get a replacement no issue

Hope all is well!

It was a great photo shoot!

Thank you!

It is just taking an awfully long time to get here!

I love the sunset pics at the lake!

Thank you!

Awww, I'm sorry you were feeling so homesick. Sounds like you found a good way to combat it, though!

Well I won't be too homesick after this weekend!

beautiful sunset photo on the dock by the lake - pretty colors in sky

MK rides (IASW, Buzz, LM) help you with missing your family

nice group shot of all of you at GF!

Thank you!

It's great!

Thank you!

Luvin the brunch pics and all the park pics. I miss WDW.. I think you should have a word with your boss and ask them to hire me

Thank you!

I will try

Ugh! Sorry you lost your maingate pass. That stinks.

I love your pics. They are just beautiful. I know Sean took some, but they are all amazing!


Sorry you were feeling homesick. I'm glad the rides cheered you up.

And if we see you at Nemo in September, we will DEFINITELY say hello! My DH will think I"m nuts, but I don't care.

It does!

Thank you!

They cheered me up a lot!

Awesome! I hope to see you!

We were at Nemo last Monday and looked for you but no luck Love following along with you on your journey!

Aw I'm sorry I missed you!

Thank you for following along!

Nice photo shoot with your roommates! The lake near Sean's house looks so pretty. Is it far from Disney? You must have really been homesick to ride Small World since you've expressed your feeling of in in prior trip reports!
Hmmmm. Losing your main gate pass - that sure sounds familiar.

Thank you!

He lives about 20 minutes away.

I was!

Yeah... You knew first!

Loving this thread! Subbing

Thank you!

Didn't realize I was a couple updates behind.

I saw the GF group pic on FB and it is so adorable. Sean did a great job with that !

And the lake near Sean's house is gorgeous. I totally agree with you on the sunsets. I have seen the most beautiful sunsets in Florida and when I've visited HHI. Just gorgeous.

Ugh to losing the pass. But at least you were having fun when you did it.

Have an awesome day today!

Thank you!

It is so pretty! I love Florida sunsets the sky just lights up!

True!

Thank you!

[lauren_elizabeth]

Awww yaaaaaay! So excited that you'll be able to spend some time with your parents! Were they able to finally make it down there safely after being delayed with the nasty weather?

 

[IheartDDuck]

Okay first off.....

AAAAHHHHH!!!!!! I'm so excited about the Princess Half!! And I'm terrified!! But excited. I can't wait until the gang is all together again!

Oooohhhh, your gluten free waffles look yummy!

Wouldn't you know...I have that shirt too.

Your photo shoot turned out awesome.

Awwww, I'm sorry you were super homesick that day.

That's no good losing your main gate pass! Hopefully your new one has arrived by now.

 

[suzimar57]

that's wonderful, your parents are there with you!

hoping your dad gets offered a job and they move closer to you!

then your whole family will be together on "permanent vacation" in the happiest place on earth!

(where's a jealous smiley when you need one??!!)

enjoy your family time!

 

[Tracy161]

How exciting!!! Enjoy your time with them!

 

[LuvEeyore]

Great photo shoot with friends. Have fun with your parents and I hope you have your replacement main gate pass before they get to your families favorite place.

 

[POLY1985]

Keeping fingers crossed for Dale! Happy Birthday to Dawn! Looking forward to the next three updates.

 

[MommaPeel]

I've finally caught up with your exciting journey, they really do make dreams come true.

So sorry you lost your Maingate pass! I hope the new one has arrived. Enjoy your time with your parents, hopefully it eases the homesick feelings. Good luck for dad on his interview and happy birthday to mom!

Hope to see you at The Seas or Turtle Talk in September!

 

[suzimar57]

sent you a friend request on FB!

 

[PlutosRHM55]

I was just going through my IG feed and saw all these great photos of you and your parents at DHS for Frozen Summer. Looks like you're having a blast! Hope you got your Maingate back for this one

Happy Belated Birthday to your mom! Hope it was a good one!

 

[jwwi]

What a great solo day at MK, except for losing your Main gate pass. Hope your visit with your parents was great. How nice that your Mom is there to celebrate her Birthday!

I love how you are enjoying so many experiences at Disney

 

[mjmstd1]

Enjoy the family time! I hope your homesickness subsides....I dislike homesickness! I would have LOVED to work at Disney but my darn homesickness always worried me. I admire you for what you are doing and can't wait to hear more!

 

[dawnbu40]

Thanks to all who sent me "Happy Birthday" wishes and told Dale "good luck"! We appreciate it. It went very well and he has a second interview (by phone) tomorrow. He also has a job offer here in Michigan so one way or the other he will be going back to work after a nice paid hiatus.
