Welcome all you Disney lovers. H20dogsNDisney is Back. For all new people my name is Hallie and I love disney. You can read my pre-trip report just click the link at the bottom of the page. Well Disney lovers lets get the show on the road. The trip report could get a little crazy at times but I will try my best to keep my trip report on the go. So lets get this started.
 
We had 6 nights and 7 days of full packed days of fun! Port Orleans French Quarters is our home away from home but will it be for long? We took the DVC tour. Stay tuned for updates!
 

I can't wait to hear about your trip! I was thinking this morning that we should hear from you soon!!!!
 
This is the morning where I was up at 3:00 like they told me to be. and where was everyone else oh yes STILL a sleep until 3:30! Should I say We needed to leave the house at 3:30! We got to the airport just as they where doing bag check-in. We had to wait for a little. Then 5:00 came. and they opened the side for carry-on. I think we waited like 15 mins after are carry-ons where all checked and the plain left the runway at 5:45. 15 mins before the plane was really to be leaving. So that was great. I don't like flighing:scared1: but we got to orlando, 40 mins early then we where suppose to. WOW! What a great and easy flight. :banana: So then it was like 8:00 when we got ME and headed to POFQ (Port Orleans French Quarters). We checked in had some thing to eat then by 10:00 we headed to MK and spent the whole day their, cme back to POFQ for a few hours to use the pool and had some, drinks by the pool.
Next up: What we went on at MK! 1st part.
 
Its our new tradition to go to the MK on arrival day. Can't wait to read all about your adventures. :hippie:
 
Now that I am back from work. Yes I had to work today :mad: but thats okay! So now that I am back, I know I gave you a short start to may first day but I will start with when it really starts,
The moment it starts for me is when we see that great:worship: Disney Transportation system called ME (Magical Express.):cloud9:
once we checked in to our hotel we had something to eat and then quickly went to Magic Kingdom no Bus wait that day oh but their some stories to come about that not so wonderful Disney Transportation.


So when we got to Magic Kingdom, that day part one we went to the Disney's train took it from mainstreet and go off and went on Splash and Thunder we got fast passes for thunder and walked right on to splash!
(If you where in disney the week of 21 to 27th and heard a group of 6 people going wooh wooh like 90 times a day sorry:rolleyes1:sad2:)
So we then headed to tom's island, my brother-in law to be and I got lost! :laughing: we and the rest were going to leave us their, lol but we finally found the rest of the group. Got the raft and the group went to thunder however my mother didn't go on thunder.

After thunder we went to Pirates walked right on. Then we went to the Tiki room. That was cute. After that we headed back to POFQ.

Next up: part 2 day one and POFQ
 
Sounds like you got a lot in on that first day!
 
So Part 2: we went back to the pool. Now that everyone was ready for a little rest time, My dad and I took my step-niece to the pool. Well I had to try one of those poolside lemonaids. (okay we had 2 of them) We (meaning, dad, myself, and my sister) Well after a few hours by the pool and a quick sleep. we all got ready and headed bag to the Magic Kingdom!

This night was our Dinner at Crystal Palace with the character.
Well number one, I ate mostly kids stuff. The CM we had was nice and quickly filled our drinks. The characters we got only 2. The rest skipped our table not once but 2 times. Finaally we just left and told the CM at the door they said oh sorry.

I wasn't up set I was up set the fact it was my nieces first visit, and first time she got a characters to meet!
 
Well hollywood studios may not be my favorite park but it was what we did the 2nd day.

When we got their we went on the look out for 50s prime time the meeting spot if anyone got lost.
Lunch was at 11:50 so we didn't have to much time before lunch to do a whole lot.

We went and got fast passes for Star Tours, and then headed to Muppets. I love muppets. After Muppets we went on Star Tours. Then we met up with my sister :hug:
While we waited for my sister to do star tours my dad and i ran to see if we could get fastpasses for toy story, nope no lu ck oh well. We went shopping and waited to for my sister. My mom took my niece to watch HSM3 and my sister and her fience went to get fast passes for RnRC, For after lunch. So while we waited for everyone else my dad and i went back shopping so I could find my Lady and the Tramp Christmas ordiment. Then we went to wait for everyone at the 50s prime time cafe.
We had 11:50 ADRs and where not seated until after 12:30. Our CM was cousin Memory no not kidding around and for most part she had a good memory. How ever she for got my Drink :lmao: That was okay. I did finally get one I asked her again. I have eatten her a few times I think we have done this enough times to skip it for a few trips.

My mom ordered the chicken, i ordered the turkey sandwich, my niece had the kids meatloaf (but gave her the adults platter instead their mistake) My dad had the meatloaf, my sister had Pot Roast, and her fience had the meatloaf. My dad and my sisters fience got the clean plate club sticker.

for dessert My dad had ice, mom had Angel food cake, my sister and I just had brownies to go, my sisters fience had a rootbeer float. My niece had a kids ice cream that my dad also ate.

After Lunch We headed to walk my sister and her family to RnRC well when they went in line the ride was shut down, something was wrong. So We walk my dad and sister and her fience to ToT. While we waited for them we took my niece to watch Beauty and the beast. Then walked back over to ToT to wait for them. Then they walked over to RnRc to see if it was working and mom and I went to the Great Movie ride we love that ride while my dad said I skip it this time!

After that we met up and did a little shopping dad spotted more lady and the tramp stuff so we had to buy it!

After that it was time to go back to POFQ.

Up Next some more shopping and Down Town Disney!
 
Hey Hallie, just got caught up on the start to your trip. It sounds like you are packing a lot in and are off to a good start....well except for the characters skipping your table. I have to admit you are better than I, as cheap as I am, I would have been saying........what do you think we are paying for, "this" food??....get yourself over here!!! :mad:

Fast Passes for Toy Story do go quick......it is for sure a must head to place first thing to be able to secure them. We did it, but I have to admit, it is sort of funny to be standing in the Fast Pass line for what feels like, what should be about the same amount of time in the standby line??? :rotfl2:

Well, I am on board and signed up for the rest of the trip!! Glad you made it back safely and look forward to your next update.

Welcome BD! Their is still more in store to come. That CP will probably be skipped next time we go! Dad would like to go to Tonys Town Square for dinner next time. If I was to tell my dad their was a quick service meal plan I don't think we would be doing the meal plan we had, But I don't plan to tell him any time soon! unless he joins the boards he'll find out quickly :rolleyes1 :eek: I will be making an update soon!
 
That night when we left DHS we went to the pool again.
Ate Dinner at POFQ. After Dinner Mom, Dad and myself went to down Town Disney! :cool1: We walk all over the market place, I went to the place where you could make your own T-shirt, That was really cool. Mine has Lady and the Tramp that says Hallie's Crew and then Triton and Paris. I then walk to Goofys Candy Company. I didn't buy a thing but had to go and see it.
After walking around market place to went to Pleasure island. And walk to House of Blues for a Drink and to listen to some music. We got back to POFQ around Midnight.
I will try to get my Picture up of my Shirt.

My sister, Niece and my sisters fience that night went to MAgic Kingdom again. They waited for splash Mt. But the line was way to long so they got out of it, they then headed over to Thunder MT which they had fastpasses for. Then they did the races cars that went like 2 MPH so they said then left and came back to POFQ and that was our night. I know kinda short but It was a long Day!
