Last day blues...

Somebody's last day blues are somebody else's first day highs! Uhhhhh? Did I just think of a name for my next TR!

They are clueless! I would have been all over that!


Pretty please, can you add me to the PM list, too??? I'm a really quiet, tidy roommate! [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]

OK - done - you are officially on the pm list the next time I get offered a great deal!!!!!!!

4 Days!!!!!! How excited are you????? I hope you do a TR!!!!!!!

I played a memorial service this afternoon at an Elks Lodge in Harve de Grace, Md. I remember when I was there last year, because all I could think of then was my upcoming December Disney trip! It really made me wish I was going again this December! I hope you have a fabulous trip!!!!!!

I am so glad I caught up on your TR tonight. I loved your WL post and your thoughts as well as other posters. It sounds amazing. I am so excited to stay there. I cannot believe I will be there on Thursday!

Looking forward to hearing about your "much anticipated" DIS meet. Sure hope it lived up to the hype.

So you ARE staying there! You better take a bunch of pictures. I can't wait to hear how it compares to your beloved Beach Club! Woot for Thursday!!!!!!

Looking forward to hearing about your "much anticipated" DIS meet. Sure hope it lived up to the hype.

But, of course, it did!!!!!!!

 

[Lady Lallie]

Seriously???? I was JUST going over to your TR to see what your dates where, because now that I posted about my "trip that almost was", I have been bitten by the worst Disney bug and I really want to go in January. I am heading over to your TR now........

So what have you decided?!

 

[Charleston Princess]

Oh, last days always make me a bit sad. I love the pictures of your early morning ferry ride to the MK -- so pretty and peaceful! I am glad the nausea passed quickly, and everything worked out with the cleaning lady.

 

[PracPerfPatricia]

Hey ME,

I have to go back to catch up...but welcome to The Wilderness Lodge (Lincoln Log style...)

I hope you didn't bring too much luggage...

 

[podsnel]

I can't believe we're at the last day!! I had a mix-up with my cleaning service on this last trip- I told her we were going away and that I would see her next time- then she showed up because I guess she thought I meant I would pay her next time. I guess she thought she cleans all the time when I go on vacation- but that's because Sean usually stays there with Sheree & Henry. OOps. Guess next time I need to be more clear.

Can't wait to see your DISmeet!

 

[jenjolt]

Awww...I'm bummed too...like Leslie said that would have been right when we would have been there!!!! Look how close I was to my MEK meet....that's alright I will have to hold out until October LOL!!!

Okay I would have jumped on that deal so fast your head would have spun...really...do they know how much trips to Disney cost and then to get a great deal like that....OTTV!! Oh well I really hope it works out for your friend and she can get those points used.

 

[DWGal210]

Hey there! Just popping in to say hi!

How is the weather in your neck of the woods? We're supposed to get a foot of snow this week; some say by Wednesday, some say by Sunday...those weather people are so confusing!

Have a great week!

 

[manntra]

on the "trip that almost was." It was a great offer and it is too bad that it couldn't be taken advantage of.
I know what you mean about being bitten by the Disney bug....If I am not thinking of my upcoming trip then I am planning the one after that!

Hi All......

Sorry I haven't responded yet! I am busy AGAIN this week at work and I practiced music last night and I have to play music tonight. But if I don't get home too late.....oh, what the heck, I may not have time to respond until tomorrow and I REALLY want to see the lincoln log Wilderness Lodge! I can't see a blessed thing here at work!

 

[mickeysmyboy]

Bleh! I got behind!! Busy, busy holiday stuff!!

Your last day, boo!! Sorry you got wet and got a stomachache!!! YUCK!

Other then that it sounds like a great morning so far!!

Boo for the tri pthat almost was! I think these ladies just don't "get it" as much as your fellow disers!!!!

 

[MEK]

Hey ME,

I have to go back to catch up...but welcome to The Wilderness Lodge (Lincoln Log style...)

I hope you didn't bring too much luggage...

I can't believe it took me two days to finally see this picture!!!!!!!! It is so Awesome. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I want one so bad!!!!!!

Be back with replies later tonight!

 

[MEK]

So what have you decided?!

Oh LL......I have been thinking about it all week. I could really do a cheap trip. I even found $50 a night rates at ASMU (AP rate) and if I got a $155 flight and did the quick service dining, well a 4 night trip would be less than what I plan to spend on my new camera.

But that's the problem.... I do want that cannon and I want it for my next trip. I don't think I can justify both. It's so tempting though. So tempting.

Oh, last days always make me a bit sad. I love the pictures of your early morning ferry ride to the MK -- so pretty and peaceful! I am glad the nausea passed quickly, and everything worked out with the cleaning lady.

It's almost as hard to get to the last day of a TR as it is to get to the last day of the actual trip!!!!!! I'm might actually have to start a PTR this time just to keep me amused. Either that or I need to sneak in the Jan trip!

Patricia -

Thank you again for this great picture. Wouldn't it be cool if Disney made a little village out of ALL its resorts and you could collect each one? I would LOVE that!

I can't believe we're at the last day!! I had a mix-up with my cleaning service on this last trip- I told her we were going away and that I would see her next time- then she showed up because I guess she thought I meant I would pay her next time.

Can't wait to see your DISmeet!

Oh NO! She showed up wanting $ and your not even there! I waited to the last minute to cancel mine because I didn't want to cancel her too soon and then have something go wrong with the trip. Guess I waited a little too long to cancel!

DISmeet coming up soon!

Awww...I'm bummed too...like Leslie said that would have been right when we would have been there!!!! Look how close I was to my MEK meet....that's alright I will have to hold out until October LOL!!!

Well, the reservation we were going to take was for the end of January, but her new reservation is for your dates. Honestly, if you and LL were going just a tad later, I might seriously consider a short solo trip. But the way it is now we would only overlap by one night.

Okay I would have jumped on that deal so fast your head would have spun...really...do they know how much trips to Disney cost and then to get a great deal like that....OTTV!! Oh well I really hope it works out for your friend and she can get those points used.

I don't think that most people add up the total cost of a trip before they make a decision, so that probably made them think it was expensive. But - they probably didn't realize that the price was super cheap for those accomodations!

You nailed it though - OTTV!

Hey there! Just popping in to say hi!

Have a great week!

Thanks for dropping by DWG. Weather has been all over the place here - freezing cold one day, snow, then warm and rainy. It's crazy. I bet you are psyched that your trip is only a couple weeks away!

Hey Tracy -

It was an awesome offer. I wish my brother and his family could have used it, but they probably wouldn't realize what a great deal it was. Still - it would have been a dream trip for them because their family is so big. Plus I could have tagged along, too. I certainly wouldn't mind sharing a room with my cute little nephews.

But I just didn't have the time to "enable" my brother into going. By the time they paid for all the flights, tickets, and food for 6 people it would have become an expensive trip. Then if the weather turned bad and they couldn't fly out - well that would just s--ck!

Bleh! I got behind!! Busy, busy holiday stuff!!

Your last day, boo!! Sorry you got wet and got a stomachache!!! YUCK!

It's so easy to get behind this time of year. It's impossible to take long stretches of DISing. There's just too much to do.

Yup - the morning started off great and it really was a fun last day!

Boo for the tri pthat almost was! I think these ladies just don't "get it" as much as your fellow disers!!!!

I know they don't. That's why I have to come here to commiserate!

Hi! I recently came across your Kidani report and I was very excited to see that you liked it so much, because that's where my mom and I will be staying in May! I haven't read this one through yet, but I saw in one of the first posts that you are planning on going in May as well. Is that trip still happening? If it is and we're down there at the same time (May 17-28), if you see us, say hi!

Hi bellebookworm9....

Thanks for stopping by!!!!!! You will love Kidani. It is absolutely beautiful. I would stay there again in a heartbeat.

We are returning in May - the first week of May (2nd - 7th) staying at the Wilderness Lodge. I am really looking forward to staying there, too. I sort-of fell in love with the place during our September trip!

My mission is to stay at ALL the Disney resorts!!!!!!!!

When I left off last Denny and I were taking a break at Pecos bill. I had finished my negotiations with my cleaning person, who in my haste I had forgotten to cancel, and my nausea passed as quickly as it arrived. We regrouped and planned the rest of the morning. I told Denny that I really wanted to climb the tree house. I have seen some really great treehouse pics on the boards and I was hoping to channel my fledgling photography skills one last time and get a few decent pics. Since I started this TR, I had the pleasure of seeing Brooke's beautiful treehouse pics. Mine aren't quite that good, but - hey - I tried! So here goes......

I don't know these people, but I think they posed for the picture......(Or Not!)

There really are some beautiful views from the top of the treehouse.......

Once we hit the top of the treehouse, I was happy with my decision to visit the MK one last time. It was really beautiful up there. Even though it wasn't crowded, I kept feeling awkward everytime I stopped to take a picture. I kept feeling like I was holding up the flow of traffic, so I tried to find little areas of the path that kept me out of the way of other people. I was also getting dangerously low on my memory card. So I felt a little stressed with my balancing act - avoid the people, take the right pics! I had already deleted quite a few reject pictures to make room for today's pictures. I was hoping to avoid deleting any more. Here are a few more tree house pics......

Bye Treehouse......thanks for sharing your lovely views......

And all too soon we descended from the treehouse to ground level. I fought the urge to go back one more time. To me, photographing the treehouse was similar to my experience with the tree of life. I kept seeing new angles and new views. I easily could have spent 45 mins there, but I think that's an acitivity for park opening. I hate to be in the way of other people. It wrecks my creativity. LOL!

Back down to ground level we decided to just go with the flow. I honestly can't remember what we did next. We may have gone on Pirates or the Jungle Cruise. I seem to have a little lapse in my memory at this point. But I know I took this picture.....

One thing I do know is that we visited the Haunted Mansion on more time. I lost count of the number of times we rode HM. All I know is that I must have been getting some HM vibes from JenJolt, because I couldn't get enough of it. If my memory serves me correctly, Jen was due to arrive the next day. She must of been channeling her energy through me.

Since I was getting more familiar with the various scenes in HM, I vowed to try to get a picture, any picture, of something other than Madame Leota. Not that I don't like the dear madame. I love her, but I wanted that bride and I thought I finally knew the exact timing in order to take her picture.

So, I guess I really shouldn't leave you with a cliffhanger at this point, but I can't resist. So, did I manage to capture the bride's image?????

Well - in my next installment - the rest of the HM, the Hall of Presidents, Lunch, my Dis meet and good bye!

I'm loving the treehouse pictures. I haven't been up there since I was little so it's on my must do list in January. I have fond memories of watching the movie with my Dad growing up. I always wanted my own treehouse.

With the beautiful pictures you take, you absolutely MUST go for a visit and bring us back some new ones to share.

I loved your Treehouse pics! You got some really great ones!

Awww, the last day. Sad!

But a great TR, loved every part of it!
