All caught up! I've been reading but I guess not posting the last few updates.
I can totally relate to Katie's experience on ToT. Sam tried it a few years ago and hated it. She'll ride everything else; in fact RnRC is her favorite of all. She did tell me recently that she
might try it again soon though.
We always seem to forget about the animation classes. Definitely need to try and get there next trip as it looks like fun.
Yum on the mushroom filet! We've only been lucky enough to score a LeCellier reservation once but that is indeed what I ordered. So good! And Sam, my picky eater, claimed that her hot dog was the best she'd ever had.
Looking forward to more and hoping you get some more park time in this day!
Well...I am glad Sam liked her hot dog at LeCellier.
I think with those TOT drops you either like them or you don't. And our girls seem to fall squarely into the "don't like".
You & Sam should definitely put the animation class on the list for the next trip. It is so fun. I guarantee you would have a blast.
Trish, loving your report, you have a great sense of humor in your writing. I have to vent a little though.....WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE!!!!!

YOU POOR THING!!!! Seriously, leaving early, cup half empty!!! I LOVE my in-laws too, but I just finished an entire weekend with them and am happy to be sitting here alone with my computer! I went to WDW with MIL a few years ago and I was a wreck before we got there, but it turned out to be one of the best times with her, mainly because she let me take the lead, she knew I knew more about it then her and that our entire family would have more fun if she let me 'control' the event. But, I have been very guarded about letting other family and friends 'tag along' on our trips, the time is too precious to me.
Anyway, you get the 'Patience Award'
![Title :thumbsup2 :thumbsup2](http://www.wdwinfo.com/images/smilies/thumbsup2.gif)
for the tolerance you have exhibited in your trip to this point. I'm sure that DH and fam didn't realize how their lack of interest was hindering your experience, how could they realize when they really don't 'get' the 'magic', too bad.
'just keep swimming'!!! Keep planning those trips, don't let anyone spoil the Disney magic for you and your kiddos!
(I am reading Heather's Poly report too - you two are the first trip reports I've ever followed - loving it! Thank you!)
Awww....thanks so much. I am really honored when the people who don't normally read TR hang out on my thread.
You know, you are right how the naysayers can sometimes steal the magic. No matter how much as you try to guard it, and keep your own mood up. I am definitely much more protective on who I will be choosing to tour the parks with in future. And family name alone won't necessary get you into the inner circle.
That's too bad that your husband wouldn't listen to you on ordering the filet...it definitely looked like the better choice of the two.
The chocolate moose are too cute!
Can't wait to hear how your photoshoot went...we've also been considering doing this on a future vacation
Funny thing is....the look of the filet itself doesn't tip you off to how good it is. Chris still has no idea what he missed out on. I tried to share a piece, but he declined. If he knew what it tasted like, there is no way I would have been able to hold him back.
I was really glad we gave the kids the chocolate mooses.
I am from PEI and I have to say that they did a wonderful job on showing Prince Edward Island. I was in awe ......
I am really enjoying your trip report and your pictures.
May I ask what kind of camera you are using ?
Welcome fellow Maritimer! I think your Island and its people looked awesome on Regis and Kelly.
As for my camera, it is a bottom of the line, outdated (i.e. 3 yr old
![laughing :laughing: :laughing:](http://www.wdwinfo.com/images/smilies/laughing.gif)
) Canon Digital Rebel XT. But I have really good glass on it. And once I learn how to shoot manual (one of many things on my to-do list), I plan to upgrade.
I have used a Canon Rebel for about 8 years now, buying my first when Katie was born. Prior to that, I don't think I had taken a picture in over 10 years.
![laughing :laughing: :laughing:](http://www.wdwinfo.com/images/smilies/laughing.gif)
In 2007 I switched over to the digital model - I was a dinosaur holdout. And within a month I had to buy a replacement. (See my first TR below for the backstory).
The Rebel is a great entry level SLR. With my kids (and how fast they move) point and shoots simply don't work. The only time I have used a p&s since getting an SLR was during the 2 Disney endurance races I did when I needed a camera that would fit on my fanny pack.
HI!!! I am so sorry I have been away for so long. I really enjoyed catching up on your fun! I am so sorry about Katie on TOT. That is such a hard ride to take in. I started crying when we were walking up to it! Yay for her wanting to try again, what a brave girl.
I can't believe your DH did not get the filet!!!! I am DYING to try it. Le Cellier seems like such a great restaurant, you described it so beautifully.
Can't wait to hear more!
Hi Katie! Definitely don't make the same mistake my husband made - order that filet if you make it to LeCellier!
As for Katie's renewed enthusiasm for the TOT...it's gone.
![laughing :laughing: :laughing:](http://www.wdwinfo.com/images/smilies/laughing.gif)
She told me just tonite that she no longer wants to try it again on our next trip. Which is perfectly, postively fine with me!!!
We have never eaten at LeCellier. I am sure my husband would love that mushroom filet. He has just recently begun to like mushrooms, and he has always loved steak. I am glad you got to eat your favorite meal at WDW. Next time maybe your family will order steak and get to see how good it is.
The filet is a must-do at LeCellier. I am sure your husband would really like it. Especially since he likes mushrooms. (Although as I have proven, that is not a requirement.

I love your trip report. Your family is very cute. I am taking a" not so sure he wants to really go, but doing it for me husband" in Nov/Dec, so I am taking notes and tips on how to do it sucessfully. Thanks I can't wait to read more
Thank you so much for posting!
You must be getting excited for your trip...not long now!!! I hope your husband turns around on your trip. Many have. I was hoping mine would have joined in as well, but I guess you don't get everything in life!
