Last Trip? It was until we met Food & Wine -- Recap 2/12

[momabbate]

Thanks Kathy, Hubby walked in the room as I was drying my eyes from reading the store of the Tinkerbell Bow. What a perfect gift. I love that she will have a gift with a story from Joe. I don't think a day has gone by that I don't think of Amanda and Mira Joey.
Great job on not smoking.
Love the Donald hat.... but I could so see my grandson with the dino hat.

 

[SarahDisney]

I love the butterfly pictures!

I love all the hat pictures ... but I think my favorite is the dinosaur head. It's eating Mark!

I love the Nemo pictures! I've never seen it (even though I love the movie), but it looks really cute!

 

[LuvEeyore]

I just found you!! Sorry it took me so long. Now to go back and catch up.

 

[LuvEeyore]

Okay, I am catching up. I am to page 20 so far. As I approach another Birthday and start over the hill, I'd better comment so far so I don't forget!!

I hope that all the health issues in your family are settling down. Saying prayers for your son's friend, Alisha and your mother.

Your great neice is adorable. Those stork bites were a great hidden Mickey.

Love your DIS meet with Cynthia and her husband. Loved the bracelet she gave you. I really liked your pictures and descriptions so far of Kidani. Thanks for all the pictures. We are staying in a studio in January for 6 nights. I would love some pixie dust and a savannah view instead of our standard view but will just be glad to be staying there. Or for your bathroom I would look at the parking lot!!

 

[LuvEeyore]

Kathy,
As I have been reading your report last night, I am realizing what a Summer and Fall you have had. So very glad for answered prayers in Mark's job, more trips to plan, a beautiful great niece. Prayers going out to you and your family for all the loss-the young athlete, your friend, your Mom's passing, your brother's health. Praying for you all.

I love your DIS meets. The sword fight is too cute. You are able to get so much done the last MK days I've read about. I am on page 66 now.

I guess it is time to keep reading or do some housecleaning...so which is is? Reading sounds like so much more fun!!

 

[MAGICFOR2]

Dinosaur was a walk on? That worked out good for you! Love the pic

Interesting hats Is that the Jammn' Jingle parade or do they have a new one?

Youu got some good Nemo pics. We haven't seen it yet - I guess you must have liked it since this is your second time. We have it on our list this time.

Hope Alisha will get some answers for what will help her.

I have never seen the butterfly magic shots!!! They are fantastic!!!
you guys always looks do damn cute. just love ya! The store is one of my favorites we spend a lot of time in there just looking at all the cool decorations. I honestly have about 600 pictures from there too..
Never did the finding Nemo thing.. NEXT TIME!

 

[JulieODC]

Haha, Mark and his hats!!

Looks like a nice AK day! We're going to try to do Nemo for the first time in January...the costumes look really beautiful! I bet DD will love it!

 

[LuvEeyore]

This looks horrible. The last 4 posts are from me.

The best thing accomplished last night and this morning...reading your entire trip report so far!! It was fun and I am anticipating my trip in 3 weeks.
I have 3 favorite parks and 1 least favorite. The least favorite-Studios. Favorites-well that is easy the other 3
I love the tours of the parks. Love your pictures of Animal kingdom. In all of my trips I have never seen Finding Nemo. Guess where I'll be heading? Finding Nemo and Festival of the Lion King.

Great report so far.

 

[Gracefulskinny]

Is it just me or does it kind of look like you are getting ready to squish the butterflies in that second magic shot?

Still going strong on the quitting? I know you can do it.

Love the hat pics.

 

[jenseib]

I love the butterfly shot. I am not sure I have seen that one before. It's super cute.

I totally missed the post about you quitting smoking...but I am so proud of you. I have quit a few times and always go back like an idiot. I have gone years and then gone back. Why do I do that???

 

[DisneyKid4Life]

Haha, geez Kathy. It feels like we were doing the same day but just on different days, lol.

I like that Magic Shot with the butterflies.

Aww, nothing like a nice nap opportunity when a Dinosaur is roaring in your face. Well done!

It's funny, but without Mark modelling so many, I'm sure I would never see most of these hats.

I have still only seen the Nemo show one time. Wow, that's surprising. I quite enjoyed it that one time though.

 

[Poolrat]

Love the magic butterflies shot!

Nice how you each got your rides.

A dance party in Dinoland??? for a Daisy Meet.

Finding Nemo is a once in awhile do for me too. FOLK is a must do every time.

 

[schmass]

Getting caught up yet again...Your morning pictures of the Boardwalk made me really happy. We just booked an April trip and will be staying there, so your photos got me really excited!! I love that resort!

I also appreciated the Festival of the Lion King pictures. I haven't seen that show in a few years, and really love it. I can't wait for Rory to see it - he is going to LOVE it!

Congrats on quitting smoking!

 

[Elevationist]

Do you know I've NEVER seen the Finding Nemo stage show at AK? I don't know why, but I always skip it!

Mark and his hats. Dear lord. TOO FUNNY!!

I love love love your Lion King shirt!

The dance party looks so much fun!

I'm a big fan of Redneck Ride Photos.

Those butterfly magic shots are ADORABLE.

Daisy! I love Daisy! How cute is she?!

 

[JKSWonder]

I have never seen the butterfly shot either! That must be new? I'm going to make a note of the location for our August trip. I would love to get that shot with my daughter.

So far, we have never been on Dinosaur. I can never tell if its going to be too scary for my kids, so we haven't given it a shot yet. Maybe this year will be our year to be daring!

 

[vettegirl]

I am in love with the butterfly shot! Will but that on my list for next trip! We have only seen Nemo once and that was back in 08 on our very first WDW trip. I need to revisit it as we always pass on it.

 

[MissMaryQC]

LOVE those Magic Shots! The butterflies are so sweet.

I adore Mark's hats. Particularly the Wookie and the Donald Duck ones, heehee.

Dinosaur is such a great ride! I'm sorry Mark isn't able to ride; it's rough on the back.

Cute pictures with Daisy! I feel like she's rarely around.

 

[happy2012]

Hi there! Enjoying the TR as always. quick Q what is the name of your orange drink @ Olivia's? We love the breakfast there, it's wonderful!

 

[natebenma]

I agree with everyone else- the butterfly magic shot is AWESOME!!!

You have some really fun pix in Dinoland. The one of you in the "car" is great.

Did you look for my favorite Hidden Mickey in the gift shop, the one made out of an extension cord/plug. I can see it in your picture, although it looks like it has been changed a little. It is on the right edge of the picture, about halfway, on the wall above the display of plush Mickeys. I only know about this because a CM working there showed it to me after one of the teens in my group made me cry.









I have never seen the AK dance party. KOOL! My family does not wait in line for characters, so I would love this random opportunity to interact with some. Wow! Hopper!

I have only seen the Nemo show once. It is so visually stunning and you really got some great pictures! I love the aquarium one, but this is my favorite!
