Tomorrow I leave for the most magical place in the world! This TR will be filled to the brim with information and Dining Reviews! This is my first TR. (Second attempt, I kind of fuzzed out on my PTR last year well before the trip. I think I just started it too soon.) So stay tuned! To start off, here’s a quick introduction of the characters!

I’m Kadye (pronounce Katie). I’m 22 and I’m getting my degree in Business Administration. I’m a Technical Assistant at one of the biggest theatres (not theater as in movies) in Memphis. I’m a former band nerd turned techie nerd who has a huge love for Disney (seriously, I made a 70 slide power point presentation for one of my classes last semester on Disney and his influence on the Hospitality industry… and IT. ROCKED.) I heart Donald and Emperor Kuzco. And also the old school Disney cartoons (Darkwing Duck anyone?:thumbsup2 ) I'm also a fan of Castle, Psych, The Mentalist. And I have a new found love of photography and photo editing.

This is Tony aka funkyeuph. He’s a 28 year old middle school band director (his main instrument is the euphonium) and Technical Assistant at the same theatre I work at. We met in band and began dating shortly after that, and we’ve been together for 3 ½ years. He’s a huge nerd – Star Wars, video games, computers, etc. He geeks it out. He’ll eat almost anything. He’s slowly been introducing me to new foods. He’s a Robin Hood fan.

Here’s Courtney, known as jewels 1916 on the boards. She’s in Texas doing the Marketing thing. I’m sure she’ll be around soon to introduce herself! We actually met through the DIS and have been talking for about a year (she followed my short lived PTR) and I wanted to go on a trip – and she was all for it! So, I guess you could call the trip a DIS meet. :goodvibes She’ll ride anything but Stitch’s Great Escape.

Also, Courtney’s friend Kelly is joining us! I’m excited to meet both of them face to face.


I hope you guys join in!:goodvibes
 
Here's a list of our ADRs:

Breakfast - Boma & Tusker House
Lunch - The Plaza
Dinner - California Grill, 1900 Park Fare (girls), Nine Dragons (Tony), Captains Grille, Tony's (Courtney & Kelly), Le Cellier (Tony and myself), Whispering Canyon Cafe

We're also on the Dining Plan, so lots of CS places and snacks to come as well!
 
I see some views there. Don't be afraid to comment. I don't bite! ;) I promise, it'll get more interesting. Right now I'm doing laundry :laundy: and getting ready to pack up (while watching The Mentalist). I figured, I'd let you guys in on tomorrow's plans! Sorry, no pics in this post!

Thanks to some crazy weather around here, schools were canceled several times. Although as a college student I don't mind (getting a day or two away from Calculus did not hurt my feelings :lmao: ), it did mess up the city and county school schedules. So, tomorrow Tony has in-service in the morning. After that, and loading up the car and heading out between 3 & 4. As I mentioned in a PP, we're in Memphis, so it's a about 15 hours give or take depending on stops to get to the Orlando area. We want to drive straight through, but it's more likely we'll stop around Montgomery or a little after that to sleep.

Courtney and Kelly will be flying in tomorrow and staying an extra evening because it was cheaper to do it that way than fly out on Thursday - the day we go to the parks.

I wish I was taking my mom's DSLR. (I'm still saving up to get my own!) I've been playing around with it and some photo editing software. I just entered a contest with our zoo, too, with pictures of some of the animals. Instead I'm bringing my point and shoot because it's lighter.

Now I'm off to go pack! Hopefully you guys will join me soon!
 
Haha I used to be a band geek too! Right now I'm not so much a geek except for cooking and sewing and geeky TV shows. :) My current Fav is Legend of the Seeker and Spartacus.

Wow I will say I hope you have a safe trip and I can't wait to read your TR when you get back!!!

:goodvibes Thanks! It's always nice to meet a fellow band nerd/geek! :) I'm sitting around waiting for Tony to get done with in-service so we can head out! So excited! :cool1:
 
Wow - you are leaving tomorrow! How exciting :banana: I will look at point and shoot pics the same as DSLR ones so post away!! ;)
 
Wow! You are so lucky to be leaving tomorrow. I hope you guys have a great time and I can't wait to hear all about how your trip went. Say hi to Mickey for me. I also hope the weather behaves. Have a safe and wonderful trip!
