~How TWO trips became...who knows? ~ It's a TRIP! and an upgrade.... 4/22

[Sandy321]

I will definitely be tweeting more this trip!

I will start today! Even with weather updates from my friends at home!





Ok...let's discuss this...

The low Friday night is going to be 34F. 34. Have I mentioned it will be 34!?!?!?!?!

I am praying...yes praying!...that it will not be that cold in March. Or next year. Because I don't think I can do 34.

I am from the SOUTH people...the South. They don't make enough running clothes for me to walk in 34 degree weather. If I was a runner...maybe...but walking with it that cold...

You people from the North can do it...I just don't think I can. But I need to train for it next year, that is for sure!

um now dont you start calling me names!!

I dont know WTH I was thinking... I'm going for a redo in '11 ok?

I am not a runner - My pic shows I was doing 18 min miles, and *I* know I got slower...

I'll post in my trip report - but ITS TOO COLD!! and I'm volunteering at the water stop - at 3 AM! I'll get wet - as you hand out water, you get splashed!!

Happy to update!

I left my iPhone at home this morning and I can't access twitter at work so I won't have any new updates until this afternoon.

Liesa - I can't link you to twitter (dumb work pc) but if you go to the twitter website I believe Mary's account name is maroo268. You just need to follow her. I will double check the account name when I get my phone. I am not very knowledgable about twitter but I did manage at the time I started following Mary to link my account to my phone so I get a text message on my phone every time she tweets.

Have a great day everyone!

I went home for lunch and got my phone! Phew!

Liesa - Mary is maroo268 on twitter

She sent out lots of tweets so far today:

7:40am - she was on the road
10:29am - "I am here! Just drove under the sign! Woo-hoo!"
12:08pm - "EE is officially awesome in chilly weather!"
12:38pm - "On my way to the BOGP meet."

Let me know if I shouldn't post updates (I wouldn't want to spoil her future TR for anyone).

Hope everyone is having a great day!

Maroo told me to go ahead and keep posting her twitter updates so here is a recap of last night and today so far.

Yesterday - she met up with the BOGP crew and rode Dinosaur. Then she headed to MK where she tweeted that the Christmas decorations were still up and tweeted a photo of the Christmas tree and Cinderella Castle still decked out in lights.

Today - she went to DHS and headed to TSM first thing. She rode it, got a FP for later and rode it again stand by. She had an awesome score that I will let her share. Then she met up with her BOGP friends and they went to ride RNRC. Then she got to see the Pixar lamp and tweeted a photo. Nothing new since then (just before 12pm).

For me, living through someone's trip is the next best thing to being there. Have a great day everyone!

Mini TR - I have had the best morning at the MK!!!

The bad - I totally missed the marathon folks and all of my friends that I have been hanging out with. Transportation was a nightmare.

Weather - it is Sleeting and SNOWING here!! In Orlando! Which has been very cold and messy.

After missing all of my friends this AM - I thought about going back to the room, but trans was a mess. So I warmed up at the Contemporary and thought...... What a great day to ride Space Mountain! Over. And over. Three times! No wait!

Park is empty!

Then I wenton Buzz. And didn't get off. For NINE rides. In a row. No one in line.

My score... On my ninth ride... Was 999999!!

I walked around. Still messy cold mix. And I was hungry. Thought it was a longshot and LTT would be good and warm!

They took me as a walkin. And it had characters!

Best character interaction EVER! I have cool pics and video I will post when I get back.

 

[kdzbear]

I am loving your updates! I think it would be neat to see it snow in Orlando if you were dressed properly. Great job on Buzz!

 

[StefaniLyn]

Love the mini TR. Can't wait to see the photos to go along with them! I hope you are staying warm!

 

[pipersmom]

Ohh..I love the mini-TR too!! Can't wait to hear all about it when you get back! Hooray for LTT having characters..I thought they had stopped that now with CP back open? Or maybe CP hasn't opened back up yet..I'm clueless... Very cool having an empty MK as your playground though! I'm so glad you're having such a good time..minus the transportation fun, anyway!

 

[that's nice]

Maroo!

Glad you made it there safe and sound!

Ya gotta love what a little sleet and snow will do to the folks in Florida!

Nice mini update! I can't wait to hear all about it!!!

 

[jordanyosh]

Cant believe it's snowing/sleeting in FL! Craziness.
