Man, that was a long vacation.
DD and I had a great time. The Osborne lights were awesome, Fantasmic was as wonderful as ever. MVMCP is a must do-again event (hopefully it will be warmer next time. We had to wear our leather coats and gloves.) The parade was great.
Even though the parks seemed crowded, there were no waits for the rides. Rode ToT on Friday then again on Monday. Apparently Monday they changed the drop sequence. We dropped a lot more times than on Friday.
Got in at 5:30 last night. Was originally supposed to arrive in PIT at 3-ish, but our 1st flight was overbooked so I volunteered our seats (who's going to pass up 2 r/t tickets? Certainly not I.) So instead of a non-stop flight we stopped in Charlotte, which wasn't a big deal to either of us.
I went a little overboard with shopping. We went to DTD 2X and shopped in every park, plus the resort and airport. Basically, I had to purchase an additional suitcase to get us home.
I'll admit, there were 2 things I was disappointed in though. 1.) How could I have spent a week in Florida and not come home with a tan!?!?!?! 2.) I wish the Share a Dream Come True paradw was a little bit longer.
Now for more good news....I'm using my free r/t tickets and my AP's for a trip in June. Only 6 months to go.
And all I'll need to pay for is a room and food.
To all my buddies that I met in WDW: It was so great to meet you all. Can't wait to do it again!!!! (No chicken dance next time, ok? LOL)
