Wow! We just got back from our trip from 4-4-04 - 4-10-04. Here is what happened being on our honeymoon and all the magic that happened.

Mon 4 -5- 04 - Since we had our MIckey and Minnie bride and groom hats on, as soon as we left dfw the fligh attend. was selling the headphones for $2.00 a piece but we got them for free because it was our honeymoon. Perk # 1. Finally we got into orlando and Gregory Nichols (the Owner of Quick Silver Tours himself picked us up. If anyone is looking for a towncar service, get quick silver) He had made a special sign just for us Perk #2. We arrived at our hotel, The CBR and wow. This place was amazing. We were worried at first because the building we wanted was not available, but ended up with a room in Jamiaca we were told. We couldn't see it yet, but was told to call to find out where the room was. So we headed over to AK. This place was amazing. The weather was perfect and we walked around Ak and decided to ride Dinosaur, very cool, and ride K.S. and the driver let us sit in the front seat, perk #3. THis ride is totally amazing. We went back to the hotel and the room we had, was totally amazing. We were comepletely happy. We changed clothes and went to DTD. We were hungry so we went to eat at the Earl of Sandwich. This place is our new fav. Anyone going to DTD, Eat at the EARL OF SANDWICH. Then to Disney Quest. The Mighty Ducks Pinball is a real work out.

Tues- 4-6-04 - We woke up at 6:00 and we had p.s. for chef mickeys so that early in the morning, it was us and one other family going to the same place and the driver, instead of taking us to MK, took us directly to the hotel. Well our ps was for 7:30, but since we got there at 7:00, they let us eat early. This place rocks. Dale and chip kept kissing my DW's ring and giving me the thumbs up. It was a lot of fun. Now we ended up finally going to the MK. Oh My GOODNESS, our jaws dropped in amazement. We walked down mainstreet and through the castle and were like ahhhhhh. We ended up walking on pretty much everything up to about 12 or 1 pm. Pirates was great. We started to get in line for Splash, but realised that our tickets were in the locker and we needed them for fast passes, so I ran all the way back to the locker and back towards splash mountain through a parade and a high school marching band and the when I got there the cast member let me head thrgouh the fast pass line, perk # 4. :teeth:

Perk #5 we got our own boat for splash. We headed over to the haunted mansion and got fast passes and did hall of presidents. After our window came up we did HM and that was the best. We did a lot of the rides and went back the room and took a nap as the park was staring to get full. After about a 3 hour nap, went back and rode some other rides and then about 7:30 we found a spot for spectro magic and wishes and waited. Spectro was so cool. Even the big bad wolf came over and was eating DW's veil and then spit it out. Then came wishes. Oh my goodness this show rules. After wishes we went to ride Jungle Cruise and some more things and rode Buzz which got stuck at the end. But that was ok. We pretty much got to ride everything we wanted to.

4-7-04 epcot. We were there for about 2 hours and we had our fast passes for test track, but DW was getting really sick, so I sacrificed Test Track to go back and take a nap with her. But after about 3 hours we went back. Space Ship Earth was pretty cool. The video email that you can send back to friends didn't work when we finally made it back home and checked. Universe of energy was pretty cool. We finally headed over to world Showcase. This place is amazing. So real. We were hungry by this time after passing through china, so we went to Germany and ate at the Biergarten. This place was amazing. The food was good. THen the band came out and said that there was a honeymoon couple today and dedicated a song to us, perk #6. After we ate we looked around the other countries and were just amazed. We found the perfect spot for Illuminations. Kind of near the rose and crown over the bridge, down the stairs, and left down the stairs. We sat there. I wanted to go to norway and went on the ride. That I liked. On the way back it got my DW a beaver tail and those rule. MMMMMMMMMM.

4-8-04 - MGM - As soon as we walked in the cast member gave us fast passes for indy. perk #7. Before the show we got fast passes for Tower of terror. So went back and saw indy..show ruled.. then to star tours. This rocked. While standing in line, someone just gave us fast passes for rock n rollercoaster, Perk #8. After star tours we were hungry. We went to sci fi, and they got us in. This place was so cool. Then backlot tour and the great movie ride was cool. We had ps for holleywood and vines and got the glowing ice cubes. So since we had time before fantasmic I went to ride Rock n Rollercoaster. So off to see Fantasmic.
Anyone and I do mean anyone who has not seen this show needs to see this show.

4-9-04 - 1/2 day at mk. Perk #8 the guard asked us our names and anounced to everyone that we were honemooners. We wanted to get fast passes for space mountain since we didn't get to do it on Tuesday. That rocked and rode pirates and haunted mansion again and just walked on, but started gettign really busy in the am and it was hot. Then off to Epcot again to pick up our picture as we got one from everyone of the parks. So we go there and do the leave of legacy. That was fun. We went eat fish and chips in New England and it was good. Back to the hotel and while DW took a nap cause she was not feeling good, I went to dtd to Disney Quest. I did the cyber space mountain and I designed the worst one that you can possibly do. I got nausious and we had PS for Ohanas that night. Back to the hotel and I had to lay down and I took one of my pills and that helped. Off to Ohanas. Mmmmmm good food. Perk #9, the table next to us sent us some champaigne for us being on our honeymoon.

4-10-04 LAst day :( I wanted to cry.) We rented the water mouse and then off to DTD to do some shopping. We spent so much money there. But I did get a Donald Duck hockey jersey and a very cool WDW Hockey hat. Of course for our last meal there, we ate at Earl of sandwich. :)

All in all, we are going back. We know this now. We can finish up the things we didn't get to do, like the shows and some of the rides.

Not to be missed,
Mickey's phillarmagic, Wishes, Spectromagic, Illimunations, Fantasmic, ToT, Haunted Mansion, Safarias, and the hammocks at CBR just to name a few. Sorry for such a long post. I am just glad we had a chance to go, and next time we will enjoy more insted of trying to do everything. If anyone has any quistions, please feel free to ask
 
So glad you had such a wonderful honeymoon!

Happy Marriage!!!:bounce: :Pinkbounc

I THOUGHT I has already replied to your post......

Oh Well.......:rolleyes:
 
Congrats ! I loved reading about your experience! What a nice gesture for the table to send you champagne at O'hana!

Sounds like you had a great time. ::yes::
 
YEah it was really great. I plan on posting some more after going through all the video.
 

OK? Wondering what happened to all of the posts on this thread from yesterday...it seems to have skipped several hours. I know I replied as did 8 or 10 others. That's weird. Oh well, maybe they will reappear :)

Just wanted to repeat, it sounds like you had a really magical time. I'm so happy for you! We honeymooned at the CBR 10 years ago, now we try to go back with our 3 kids as much as possible! It's been a long time, but we go back next week!

Congratulations on you nuptuals!
 
Now I see, you have a double post. Just in case you didn't know ;)

I had replied to the other one, LOL!
 
This was a wonderful report. AS much as we hear bad things about fellow guest it is nice to hear about some good ones. The champagne was a wonderful ideal.
 
I agree. Good thing is I think we are going back in November. Woohoo.
