Woah! An update!!

I like Tampa's airport. I like how security isn't until you're at the set of gates you want to be at, the lines are always short!

When I originally called Disney reservations, I booked the room till Monday the 14th. Lets just say it got a little stressful in our house. I immediately called Disney and found out there was no availability at POP. The only rooms available were at AKL, the Poly, WL, and the GF starting at $540! If I booked one night there, it would of cost more than the 4 nights at POP!

Wow, I would have been ticked off....
Glad you were able to work something out though.

It wasn't long before we were eating a wholesome breakfast at McDonald's (wow that was hard to write with a straight face!)

Are you trying to tell me that a McGriddle isn't wholesome??? It is pancake, meat, egg and cheese all in one sandwich. What isn't wholesome about that???

On the drive, we past probably the ugliest building in all of sports- Tropicana Field.

Good start, looking forward to the next update!

I think the name is going to be Christopher. We are still working on the middle name... it could be Michael or Joseph. I still like Peterson.

I need to get a side profile pic of Mel so you can see the bump.

Love the name!! I hope you convince Mel to give you that side profile so we can see the little man!

for the countdown calendar! Does Ana get in on the act of making it or is it just you or Mel?

I'm sorry to be in the category of "encouraging" you on to complete an update, but I'm so glad it worked! Now, only how many more days until our next one?

I lurked for months before making my first post here on the DIS in November of 2008. I have met so many nice and caring people who all have the same love of Disney that I ended up with.

I think a lot of us have similar stories. The people on the boards here are just way cool.

At 6pm, the night before we were leaving, I hopped on the computer to print out our POP reservation when I noticed our room was booked from March 9-13. That had to be a mistake. When I originally called Disney reservations, I booked the room till Monday the 14th. Lets just say it got a little stressful in our house. I immediately called Disney and found out there was no availability at POP. The only rooms available were at AKL, the Poly, WL, and the GF starting at $540! If I booked one night there, it would of cost more than the 4 nights at POP!

Maybe you should have told them that they needed to find room for you in the Cinderella Castle Suite.

We were up bright and early for our drive to the airport. Juliana was excited to pull off her last Mickey head.

If there's one thing kids like, it's pulling off Mickey's head.

It wasn't long before we were eating a wholesome breakfast at McDonald's (wow that was hard to write with a straight face!)

To quote Bill Cosby from "Chocolate Cake for Breakfast": "It has milk! It has eggs! Nutrition!"

On the drive, we past probably the ugliest building in all of sports- Tropicana Field.

For some reason, this makes me think of a scene from The Naked Gun.

They had just gotten into Delaware and I think they were a little jealous we were looking at Palm trees while they were looking at close to 1000 more miles on the road.

Ok, now I know you're making things up. Once you cross the border into Delaware, you are immediately overwhelmed by a sense that you have reached paradise. Who needs palm trees when you have fragmites?

I see how it is.

Barry your nemisis is naming his child after my nemisis. CONSPIRACY!!!

That's it...I'm naming my next dog Barry.

Joining In! Can't wait to read more!

BUMP!

 

[Stringbean&Wingnut]

Mel and I have the same D&B bag pattern!

Ahhh I would have FREAKED OUT about not having the room booked for that day! Good for you for finding the other room!

 

[mommy2mrb]

Love the countdown calendar! Mel did a great job!

Princess Ana, looks like a major travelling pro!

oh, you were lucky to get a room so late! sleeping in the car would not be fun

Off to a great start! Melody did a great job on the countdown calendar. I had to laugh about the Mcd's breakfast being nutritious

Let Julianna know that Puppy has a twin in Delaware named Brownie who I believe has also made the trip to Disney

 

[Moira222]

Oh No! was it hard not to post here about your room mishap and then that super feeling you had when you fixed it?

Yeah, Delaware roads are so smooth it is like you're driving on air.

I see how it is.

And obviously came back, deciding Delaware was better!

Roads? Where we're going, we don't need roads.

Roads? Where we're going, we don't need roads.

Or car. We all have riding mowers and ATV's and the ever so entertaining NATIONAL event of Pumpkin Chuckin.

Ok so after reading Molly's comment about the Peeps, I think you should send all of your follower's an image to put in their siggies with a Peeps that says 'Tim's Peeps'. And no, I am not volunteering to do it - I wouldn't have the slightest idea how to do it.

Totally! Tim's Peeps! It doesn't sound cultish, does it? Just think how cool our signatures will look! We'll be the "in" crowd! Great idea Crissy! I cannot stop laughing!

and because I well I am addicted to the Dis & not terribly engaged at work today, here ya go:

OMG!! That is perfect! Well done Moira! Very, very creative with the holiday peeps picture too!!!

I love it!!!! Can I copy it and put it in my signature?

Me too! Me too! Pretty please??
