Happy Mickey-versary for 15 yrs! An Oct. 2011 PTR NEW: 11/13 Pretend Disney? & TRlink

[Charleston Princess]

First off, I am really glad you guys are okay! You know how I feel about tornadoes.

Yeay for a credit for your tickets! Awesome!

I really like your first night plans of watching Hallowishes from the Top of the World!

 

[Mickey_Mom]

So glad everything was OK

Kudos to you for such an early flight, whew! Gives you a great first day though - plans look great!

 

[mousescrapper]

Wasn't last night just crazy!! Most of Elmhurst is still without power, thankfully ours just flickered on and off a few times.

yes it was, glad nothing too major in damage...

First day looks great, the benefit of the early flight is the park time you can get on the first day. I can't do that with the kids, don't think I could get them all up and out that early.

YEP no I agree that would be a bit rough w/ kids...we like that 8:30 am ish flight typically when going w/ the kids

Love the idea of Hallo-wishes from TOWL. It's a great show.

I am looking forward to it...we saw Wishes so many times in Nov...it will be fun sneak peek before we see it in the park on our MNSSHP night

First off, I am really glad you guys are okay! You know how I feel about tornadoes.

thanks, thanks, and thanks...it is a very neat vantage point seeing it up there

So glad everything was OK

Kudos to you for such an early flight, whew! Gives you a great first day though - plans look great!

thanks, I'd prefer the earliest to maximize the 1st day especially on a short trip

Day 2) Itinerary

“Food & Wine…Eat to our Full Delight Day” ​

Main Activities:

* EPCOT: FW & F&W Festival

* Anni Dinner-Narcoossee’s

Morning Plan:

We’ll start out Day 2) w/ a quick bite to eat in the villa for breakfast and then try and make RD for EP. Hopeful Plan is to do ALL that we want to do in Future World part of EP today (and bonuses will be on Wed night)

Afternoon Plan:

Lunch will be noshing around the World (still waiting on official 2011 info to make up a booth wish list). Plan to leave EP sometime btwn 4-4:30 pm to head back to BLT

Evening Plan:

Dinner at Narcoossee’s for our “official” anniversary meal of the trip 7 pm ADR (arrive around 6:45 pm) we’ll take the monorail over from CR (I’ll be ordering a special custom cake too for the evening) AND need to decide on outfit…I have a couple casual dresses/skirts in mind. Matt will wear slacks and a nice shirt or polo, unsure. But want to be coordinated so we can try for a couple nice pixs…love to maybe just hop into MK for a nice PP pic!

Plans for after dinner are up in the air right now…

* watch Wishes from GF beach
* go to MK (eve EMH)
* take a walk
* relax at resort
* MP shopping??

Think it will be a wing it kind of time… don’t want to be rushing thru dinner for something…

Here is the Tour card:

the food and wine booth options are just based on '10 info and not set in stone. *** and whoops forgot to add in the 2nd Soarin time...when we head out.

And here is a little pocket size review booklet I made for while there, so I can report back to you all on what we tried, liked, loved and possibly hated…

As you can see I made two again…1 will be a prize so stay tuned!

There is day 2) what do you think? Going for a slow leisurely paced day…ROMANCE!

make my DIS pins for MNSSHP I had printed the sheets just a day earlier so great! I used some cute DISigns by Marion (I think I have a love affair w/ her ) and printed them out, then used self laminating sheets to make them sturdy, cut those out and added saftey pins to the back w/ packing tape and

there you have it!

here are some close-up's:

I'm not sure if I'll only give them out on Tues night (10-18) when we go to MNSSHP or just give out the Jack-MNSSHP that night and carry the other happy halloween ones the rest of the trip... :

Hi ya Julie!

Sorry to hear about the storms in your area. There was a tornado in Louisville, Kentucky about 90 miles southwest of me. It severly damaged one our our state treasures where the Kentucky Derby is held every year, Churchill Downs. The pictures are really sad to look at, but the good thing is that no humans or horses were lost in the event.

Cannot wait for the kiosks at F&W!! I am seriously debating on whether or not to cancel my Le Cellier ADR and just "nosh" as you say on the lovely offerings. In no particular order, I'd love to visit: Greece, Australia, Ireland, and South Africa!

Narcoossee’s is going to be awesome! Have you decided what you're going to order for the specialty cake? I'm sure you've browsed the cake threads and gotten some good ideas.

 

[irish dancer]

Love the MNSSHP pins! Very cute!

Epcot plans look great. Would love to go to F&W with just DH, would make for a much better and more relaxed touring. Someday.......

Day 3) Itinerary

Tues 18th

“A little Mania, some Hollywood dish, and [not] a lot of Scare Day!” ​

Main Activities:
* DHS

* Hollywood brown Derby lunch

* MNSSHP

Morning Plan:

Bfast will in the room again

We’ll attempt another close to it RD and like salmon or wildebeest we’ll make the mad dash to get our TSM fun in… other top HS touring will take place as well

Afternoon Plan:

Lunch ADR @ 12 noon at the Hollywood Brown Derby I will probably order the famous Cobb salad (w/ no blue cheese)

Based on what time we are done eating we may do a teeny bit more of DHS but mostly just head out of the park back for a break at BLT

Late afternoon will involve a shared bite to eat from Contempo café (probably one of us will run for food and bring back to room) and then get Spooked Up!

Evening Plan:

MNSSHP

We hope to head into the park sometime between 4-5 pm and stay on till the party is over…CAN’T WAIT!!!!


So I have 2 Touring cards for this day one for DHS morning and one for our MNSSHP evening, take a look at the morning one first:

Up NEXT... my MNSSHP tour card and intro to my PTR Contest


J~

 

[Parla]

I love that your cards even suggest what you should wear that day!

I feel so un-organized simply setting everyones "matching" clothes out the night before. No, I don't like the whole family wearing the same shirt thing unless they are custom made but I do like to stick with a theme.

 

[dekkerdisneydreamer]

Aww, you weren't able to sneak in a RnR or TOT? Bummer for you. The sacrificies we make for our DH's.

I cannot wait to see what the game will be!!!
