Hi Everyone,
Hope you all had a lovely two weeks. We had a great time, but just come back to find our central heating isnt working
I am wearing two pair of socks, tshirt, cardigan and a fleece and I am still cold
Not a happy bunny about that. As my dh thinks he can fix everything after 6 hours of trying and then finding out he cant will be the time when I will call the plumber
Only 3 hours left.
Anyway enough of the boring stuff. On with the exciting WDW trip I had. I wont be doing a trip report, because it takes sooo long and I honestly have a memory like a sive at the moment. I will do my evaluation what we did and what was great any poor bits.
Pros and highs!!!
Town car from Sunray they were professional, friendly and efficient.
So many pros it will be impossible to write them all down I will just write down the major parts
Bought AK DVC
We are now proud owners of DVC thanks to Jim McCoy.
Weather was fantastic apart from two days. One of those days it was 39f. That was an experience wearing coats and hats around MGM.
Magic Kingdom castle it was lovely. So pretty it brought a few tears
Osbourne lights, my word I have not seen anything like it at all. Amazing.
DDE saved us so much money its unbelievable.
Loved Ohana first time we went the food was great.
Casey's BBB she looked so pretty. She was so proud. Again a few tears to the eyes.
The illuminations holiday special fireworks. Mind blowing. Absoloutly fantastic. Best fireworks display.
Seeing all the trees they were so beautiful.
Casey had such a special moment with Belle and Beast at Mickeys christmas party on her birthday. Belle is her fav princess. Casey was dressed up as Belle after BBB. It was really sweet what they did. Beast was dancing with Casey and Belle was giving her lots of hugs and gave her a sticker.
Magical Moments
Went behind the scenes of Dinosaur ride received a certificate
Free large cookie at the bakery at MK
Casey and the boys were made honoury princess and princes. Casey was anounced to all those who were going to ride that she was the honoury princess for the day and she rode Cindrellas horse recevived a crown and certificate
We went to BB and went to hire a locker. Was told we only needed to pay $5 and we would get this back and there was a surprise in the locker. There were two BB refill cups and four towels.
Cons
Virgins delays. Ok they were only 2 hours and with the upcoming strikes we should be thankful. They just seem to be getting more disorganised and rushing through the drinks trolley and turning the lights off almost straight away.
ASMo room mouse keeping. I noticed that the toilet was not cleaned properly at the side. Lets just say somebody hadnt been well before we arrived.
Transportation. Okay 80% time it was good. A few occassions we were waiting for 45 mins before we saw a bus. With tired children it was not fun.
Mickeys christmas party. A little disappointed with that. Parade was excellent. I prefered Halloween party instead. The fireworks was good, but no where near as good as Hallowishes and pirates in my opinion. Casey had a good time. The main thing.
I cant really fault much, because we had such a wonderful time. Now we have DVC we are planning to return in 09. Fingers crossed next year to Vero Beach for a week.
