Hannah Montana Rules the World! TONS OF PICS, UPDATE 11/1!

Leyla!

I have a hair question...what product should I use for my hair to keep it from being a frizz ball in Florida?!?

Thanks!

Besides a hat and a hairband? When I do blowouts on women my favorite thing to use is Bumble and Bumble styling creme (nickle size amount) and a few drops of antifrizz serum MIXED together. You can get 2 oz. sizes since you don't need much and that way you can see if you like it. Apply before blowdrying and use a good brush with lots of bristles so it really pulls the hair smooth. I use a bio-ionic brush, expensive-yes, the bomb-definetly! You are in the single digits!!!!!

Whispering Canyon sounds like lots of fun and one of those that you just have to try. Thanks for the food pics!

It really was ALOT of fun and I'm sure your girls will love all the antics!

So I'm the famous (infamous?) BFF and I'm proud to say that I know the entire cast of characters in Leyla's report almost as well as I know my own family. Leyla & I have the coolest friendship ... it's survived 25 years, thousands of miles, and a host of assorted trials and tribulations. She rocks and I love her and her family!

So Leyla's already spilled the beans that I've never been to WDW, but all the enthusiasm in this board has certainly piqued my interest!!! I have been to Disneyland, though, so at least I'm not a Disney neophyte. I can't wait for our girl's trip - hopefully we can be more energetic than we were on our big night out at the casino And I am really, REALLY looking forward to Epcot in particular ... I have another friend who is a once-a-year Disney visitor, and she is convinced that I'll never want to leave. I'll leave the trip planning to Leyla, though - she is a true planning rock star

PS - GO RED SOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(PPS - Fun fact about me: I love Tinkerbell! )

You posted, you finally posted!! Much planning to be done. I should probably tell Pierre at some point. But I'll make sure I encourage him to go to Montreal for a hockey tournement first, You will LOVE DisneyWorld, I promise!

And you used to collect Disney snowglobes, another fact!

Loved the update and great pictures!

We loved WCC and the skillet was really good to me.

I bet Bella did love the ketchup thing.

Hi Amy, maybe it just wasn't for him? I know I wasn't really hungry so that's why it didn't appeal to me. Bella is such a nut!

Hi Cory. I'm Leyla's friend from the West Coast. When are you women going to start your PTR?

Yo Jordan- don't worry we'll be doing one! A tag team effort!!!!!! Now to think of a title.......

Okay, thanks! I think they sell the bumble and bumble stuff at the salon at my gym. Is it b & b antifrizz serum too? Thanks for the tips! I'm going to need them. My hair + humidity =

I have really enjoyed your TR. Your kids are sooo cute. Cooper has the most pinchable cheeks EVAH.

My BFF and I tried a "girls night" for my 30th and we made it until about 10pm and we were both zonked and had to go home to the hubbies.

Hope you have a blast on your return!

Their antifrizz is called "defrizz" so mix that and the styling creme

Not particularly trip related but I love this t-shirt Pierre has on. It says "my plastic pancreas can beat up your pancreas" with a picture of an insulin pump on it

We had been talking about tatoo's on Farrah's report WHICH, BTW, has loads of great pics on it anohter one to check out if you haven't already! Here's a pic of Pierre's tatoo and it gave him away to Rentayenta although I was gone before it clicked who he was.

This is a cool hockey one on his calf

I'm going to do my next installment on Sat. morning so sit tight mah baybees!

 

[snowwhite325]

Nooooo your TR cannot be over I just won't allow it!! I have said it before and I will say it again, this has been one of the best TR's I have read!!! I think you need to plan another trip asap because I won't have anything to read now when I come home!

Hi,Leyla! Love the video....

Cool tattoos and shirt!

Hi my name is Pierre and my wife has a slight addiction to hanging out on the computer and writing on the Disboards. Without the feedback from all your Dissers planning a trip to Disney would not be easy. Finding a place to eat, to drink and a place to chill out by the pool is like trying to find a needle in a haystack at Disney, too much to choose from! I personally, am a lounger. I like the beach, love the ocean (not alot of commotion), and this was my 4th trip to disney. 3 with Leyla and once when I was 10. The 2 things I remember most when I was 10 was the monorail and MK, both of which are still standing and just as magical, LOL!

The first 2 times I went with Leyla we had a plan but the kids had their own plan and it was tough trying to please everyone, as usual. Leyla is easy to please BUT you know when she isn't. Going to the right parks and finding the right rides and the best places to eat can be a battle without a good plan. This trip was phenominal because of our park knowledge, where to go, when to do it. Let's start with the restaurants- tough choosing, so much good food. Wolfgang Puck was a tough pick for the first spot. From start to finish it was exceptional. Coral Reef is my second favorite. For the rides- Soarin is #1, EE is up there and TOT, Splash, too many to choose from!
But the key was the fact that the kids really wanted to take part in all the rides and enjoyed them. Cooper developed some courage, except for the pirate cruise. If one of the kids wanted to go back or developed an attitude and NEEDED to go back Disney makes it easy to get back to the hotel. The only thing Disney needs to add is a beer service on the bus ride back, you need it at the end of the day to take your mind off all the the sweaty, tired people on the bus (self included!)

Cirque Du Soleil is unbelievable, a definate must do! The counter service at Wolfgang Pucks is the way to go before the show.

I had to see why my wife hasn't cleaned the house in 6 weeks so I read her trip report. I know she doesn't beat around the bush, never has and never will and it was well written. She summed up each day quickly but accuratley, I know she could have written much more. because we did so much each day due to her great planning. Her reserved sense of humor really came out in each installment. I hope to spend some more time with her now that she's nearly done! I hope to go back to Disney soon because I REALLY enjoyed it truly for the first time.

If my DH ever wrote something like that for me I would consider it my Mother's Day / Anniversary / Christmas gift all in one! You two are a great pair and it was a pleasure to "see" such a wonderful family vacation!

Hi my name is Pierre

Hi Pierre, and welcome - it has been a privilege to get to know you and Leyla, and the kids, a little, through this trip report, and enjoying the trip right along with you guys. Love the fact that there are pictures of all of you in the report and nobody was left wondering why so-and-so wasn't there .

And it is OK for you to be a Bruins fan, but this is Red Wings country over here! (but two of my daughters housemates from college at Bowling Green are in the Bruins system, and have had time up to the big show).
