I'M BACKKK!! And I have a LOT of catching up to do!

First off, YAY for finding your camera!

Flower and Garden is so pretty. Thanks for all the pics!

Duffy is soo cute! I haven't met him yet, but I did color one of those cute paper Duffys in China. Hehe.

What a fun idea about eating around WS! I'm definitely gonna have to try that, since mixing types of cuisine never bothers me. LOL.

How cute that Pooh and Tigger came out and danced! They're both so precious.

HAHAHA the title explanation is HILARIOUS. I'm cracking up. Oh Disney alcohol.

I LOVE that pin! I almost traded for one like that with Bubbles in the bag but some guy beat me to it.

Great pic of the Beast's castle! I totally know what you mean about the bus service though.

I always think Snow White will be closed for my next trip so I always make an effort to ride it more than once, and then it ends up still being open. I'll be shocked when it closes for real lol.

Yay for sneaking that pic! I do love that dress.

Aww Mary Poppins! She's definitely one of my very favorites too! She's basically tied with Ariel for the top spot.

Nice shots of Fantasyland and the rose garden. The one with the castle and the flowers is gorgeous!

I dedicated an hour at RD to meeting Rapunzel on this past trip, mainly for my little sister. I wish Flynn would have been there though.

The Laugh Floor cracks me up every time, and I've never even been in the show!

I met that Prince Eric! He was soo cute!

Once again, Caitlin's dress is super cute! What a fun MK morning.

Mmmm lunch looks delish! I LOVE that steak! Kona is a must-do for my family.

I love the new Mickey meet-and-greet. I never noticed those park-representation items. How fun. I love the Mary Poppins dress in the dump shop too!

How funny about the fireman. He's precious.

Great job on Buzz and staying awake during CoP! I call those Chip and Dale outfits their Gaga look.

I love the smell in Philharmagic when the champagne bottles are popping open.

I hope Josh can be in the flag ceremony! That would be so awesome for him!

I LOVE LOVE LOVEEE the Wishes Dessert Party. I totally agree, it's the best way to watch Wishes, hands down.

ALADDIN. Even in Vinylmation form he's cute!

Yes, I think Josh should see Illuminations and go on Philharmagic. Two inncredibly classic Disney experiences.

Hope ya'al are having a magical time! Can't wait to hear all about it!

I think I know too

 

[PrincessCaitlin]

I saw both you and your mom's facebook posts so I think I have some idea what you're talking about. LOL. I won't spoil it though!

Thank you I want everyone to be just as surprised as I was!

I'll be staying quiet though!!!!

Thank you!

I don't have Facebook and don't know nuthin' about your day. I'm gonna wait for the TR like you're supposed to! You young whipper snappers with your new fangled 'lectronical doo-dads don't have any patience! Why in my day I'd have to walk 10 miles through 6 feet of snow for a decent wifi hotspot. <stamps foot> So there! <Storms off in a huff while waiting for dial-up>

Aw well it happens on the second day so you won't have too long of a wait after we start the TR for this trip

I'M BACKKK!! And I have a LOT of catching up to do!

Welcome back! I hope you had a great trip!

First off, YAY for finding your camera!

I was so relieved!

Flower and Garden is so pretty. Thanks for all the pics!
Thank you! It feels so weird walking around Epcot without all of the flowers!


Duffy is soo cute! I haven't met him yet, but I did color one of those cute paper Duffys in China. Hehe.

You need to meet him he is so adorable!

What a fun idea about eating around WS! I'm definitely gonna have to try that, since mixing types of cuisine never bothers me. LOL.

It is a lot of fun but I prefer eating desserts around the world!

How cute that Pooh and Tigger came out and danced! They're both so precious.

It was such a great moment!

HAHAHA the title explanation is HILARIOUS. I'm cracking up. Oh Disney alcohol.
Yeah those Grey Goose Slushies are hard to pass up!


I LOVE that pin! I almost traded for one like that with Bubbles in the bag but some guy beat me to it.

Aw I need Bubbles in the bag for my collection! I hope I see it!


Great pic of the Beast's castle! I totally know what you mean about the bus service though.

I always think Snow White will be closed for my next trip so I always make an effort to ride it more than once, and then it ends up still being open. I'll be shocked when it closes for real lol
Yeah the wait time for it was 20 minutes the other day so we passed it up but I don't really feel bad about it
.

Yay for sneaking that pic! I do love that dress.

Aww Mary Poppins! She's definitely one of my very favorites too! She's basically tied with Ariel for the top spot.
We met the best Ariel this trip!


Nice shots of Fantasyland and the rose garden. The one with the castle and the flowers is gorgeous!

I dedicated an hour at RD to meeting Rapunzel on this past trip, mainly for my little sister. I wish Flynn would have been there though.

I am kicking myself for not waiting in that line!

The Laugh Floor cracks me up every time, and I've never even been in the show!

I met that Prince Eric! He was soo cute!

Thanks! they do look like something she would wear

I love the smell in Philharmagic when the champagne bottles are popping open.

We will see

I LOVE LOVE LOVEEE the Wishes Dessert Party. I totally agree, it's the best way to watch Wishes, hands down.

He saw Philharmagic and loved it but we still need to see Illuminations


Hope ya'al are having a magical time! Can't wait to hear all about it!

Thank you!

I think I know too

It was pretty amazing!

 

[PrincessCaitlin]

Another great day! We had two great DISmeets! One with LilAnn and another with Queenofallthings and her daughter Jasmine! We had a great time!

We spent the day at Epcot and really took our times in the countries which had been on my to do list for this trip from the start!

Tomorrow we are headed to Animal Kingdom and Josh is super excited!

Yay for another great day Can't wait to read more about your DISmeets! I love touring all the world showcase countries! That is one of my favorite things to do in disney and I think it is totally something that you have to be a older teenager or adult to really enjoy. i didn't really appreciate the world showcase untill a couple of trips ago. Yay for animal kingdom and i hope josh enjoys it alot since he is excited to go there. Also can't wait to hear what the amazing thing was yesterday. I have a couple of guesses but since i'm not following along on your facebook status updates they could be absolutely wrong and really far off so i'll keep it to myself. Loving the live updates btw

 

[meeko_33785]

Sounds like you all are having a great time. I hope the weather over there is holding out for you.

I love seeing all of the countries as well! I think if they had, had the Kim Possible missions when I was younger I would have enjoyed them more but you're right you do have to be older to really appreciate them. He loved the Animal Kingdom! It is now his favorite park!

Sounds like you all are having a great time. I hope the weather over there is holding out for you.

Yesterday was the worse day for rain but other than that whenever we head back for a break it starts raining so we don't miss anything. We have been very lucky!

Hello Caitlin and Dawn,

New reader here. I've just come back on the boards after being away for awhile because I'm planning a trip for next June. I discovered the trip reports after the intriguing title of DisneyFreak616's report. That was all I needed. Started reading this one then went back and read your prior report. I love the tag team effort by the two of you. Your style of touring is similar to mine so I am really enjoying reading your reports. Can't wait to read the new one and see Disney through a newbie's eyes.

Welcome back!

I am glad you are enjoying our TRs! Our next TR will definitely be different from the other ones we have written and we have more than enough pics to show the World from a newbie's point of view

 

[POLY1985]

Completely enjoyed them!!! Read all of the Bathrobe Princesses - had to put my NOOK on hold until I finished. I become extra Disney obsessed when I'm in the planning stages for a trip.

And completely unrelated to Disney - I have a 16 year old son born June 16!! Our trip next June will be over his birthday.

 

[I Believe In Magic]

Welcome Back!!!! Hope the trip was awesome!!! Something tells me it was!!! Can't wait to hear all about it.

So after having an incredible vacation we got home to more excitement! One of Caitlin's friends texted her and told her he "saw her on a billboard!!!

You see...... Back in early July I mentioned to her that I read on Facebook that her university was looking for students to feature in their 2011-2012 marketing campaign. She had called and inquired and they had her go to campus, make a testimonial and took some pictures. The photographer had worked with her before, when she was featured in an ad for the Alumni magazine, and told her how photogenic she was and how her "eyes popped". Well time went by and she never heard anything so she thought they chose someone else. Imagine our surprise when we heard she was along side the highway!! It turns out after the photos were taken they placed them in the Admissions Office and had new & prospective students and their families along with faculty leave comments and vote for their favorites. Cool huh?!! So ladies and gentlemen, without further adieu, here is PrincessCaitlin's billboard

So we were definitely geeked when we saw it! Thanks for letting me share!

 

[Disneyfreak616]

Can't wait to hear about the most magical trip EVER!!!! And OMG that is awesome about the billboard! How exciting!
