[BippityBoo]

Having trouble adding new links to page one...sorry about that!!

Hello Everyone!!!

PHEW! What a looonnnngg week! As some of you know, I am getting my teaching certification. This was a VERY hard semester and included, but was not limited to, translating Old English into Modern English. Yes. You heard me right. Think Nordic Vikings...oh, and speaking of...

I wrote an 8 page paper on the Norway Pavilion in EPCOT! I got it back today and here is the comment from my teacher...

" A+. Wonderfully done! You actually made me want to go to Orlando, which is quite an accomplishment!"

THANK YOU DISNEY! Converted another Disney lover

I must say that after I finished the paper, I was SO impressed with the attention to the small details that the Imagineers put into their design. Just wonderful! If you have extra time, it is worth researching a little bit. I must say that I will never look at the Norway pavilion or Maelstrom the same again

OK...enough about school...let's get to the fun stuff!!

OUR FAVORITES:

1) WILDERNESS LODGE--What an incredible resort!! We are hooked for life!
2) Pirates of the Caribbean--loved it! So happy we were able to ride this time!
3) Soarin--another new favorite!
4) Tangerine Cafe--BEST Counter Service ever. Atmosphere gets an A+
5) Character Interaction--what a GREAT group of CMs. We got so lucky.
6) Riding EE without my hubby!
7) Pin Trading with Abby--I am so glad we started this. Just adds to the fun!
8) Toy Story Mania--HOOKED on the Wii game now!
9) Aiden meeting Handy Manny and Lightning. My sweet boy got his wish!
10) Goofy sitting in our stroller...priceless!

I could go ON and ON...we had such a great trip

DISLIKES:

1) Not renting a stroller for our last day...ouch on the back with from using
the umbrella stroller!
2) Watching Spectro in Frontierland
3) Parents who screamed at and slapped their kids at the most magical place on Earth!
4) Riding Dinosaur...sorry! I can not speak for my family because they loved it! Mommy is a chicken.
5) The noise from the garbage trucks in our room.

Well, there you have it!! My last post on my TR But don't worry...SO MUCH MORE TO COME!!

PTR STARTS ON MONDAY! HO HO HO HERE WE COME!

Congrats on your paper! I had to do that English thing too; not very magical!
Great wrap up. I think you're character interaction deserves an A+! I love how CMs go out of their way to make peoples' trips more magical. Definitely the magic of Disney.

I will have to agree with you I absolutly HATED the dinosour ride!!! I kept my eyes closed almost the entire time!!! I hate some of the scenes I see at disney world... especially when most of the time its from kids that are being pushed to hard and are completly exhausted

Can't wait to read your christmas PTR!!!

 

[laashley]
