Leger Wonka Pre-Trip....Little Surprises Around Every Corner (7/6 New Purchases)

[Leger13]

Hey hey hey Carla!! I made it

The cruise looks very cool and a great way to make his B-Day an extra special one. Nice additions to your pin collection. I wasn't very in to them initially but after my little pin adventure and the fact that my DD11 has become a fanatic, I think I'm getting hooked too - lol.

The first draft of the itinerary is looking pretty good, but I know what you mean about it changing ...it is a long way to September! Are you traveling/arriving on your B-Day?

That is quite the colorful bunch of planning materials - you'll have to post a finished page from the notebook so we can see that rainbow of colors in action Great T-Shirt designs, are you going to do iron-on or get them professionally done?

Back at POP aye? Well you're very right - it is just a crash pad after all. And getting more WDW days makes it all worthwhile - whoohoo! And the second draft of the itinerary is looking a lot more together. And it answered my question about your birthday - glad you're not having to travel on it. And Le Cellier for the birthday lunch - very nice!

Overall ya got a great start on a trip filled with good food and lots of fun - yehawww!

Hi Mustard!! Sorry it's taken me a bit to reply to you. I quoted you yesterday but by the time I got down to your post to reply I had to do work again I wanted to be sure I had time to reply to you since you always take the time to respond to everything!

First of all I'm very glad you are here for my pre-tr! Just one question, can I steal your camera for my trip so that my pictures can turn out as great as yours? I actually BROKE my brand new camera at MK while I was in Orlando! Can you believe it!?!? I went out and bought a filler camera for now but I don't like it as much as my Canon. It's a Nikon L18. Chris is going to run over to Best Buy today to see if he can con them into replacing it for us. Keep your fingers crossed. I miss my camera I really just need an SLR so I have to wear the strap around my neck. No dropping that sucker!

As for the Disney pins....They are soooo addicting. Once you buy one it's hard to stop there. And now I'm really into trading them. While at MK this time my friend and I decided to take some of the duplicate pins we had and trade them. We got some REALLY cool pins that way so then we went and bought box sets that we didnt care about, split them up and traded those away. That is just as addicting as buying them yourself. You can get some really valuable pins that way. I think for my September trip I'm gonna nab a lot of pins off of Ebay to take down with me to trade. I can't wait!

I'll be sure to snap a shot of one of my planning pages from my planning notebook so you can see what I've done with it

As for the t-shirts, I'm thinking I'll probably have them professionally done. I don't have the time to do them myself, and plus if they are screwed up in the end then I will have someone to call and complain to.

I have yet more changes to add to my itinerary so keep your eyes open for that update. Does it surprise you that I changed things again? I think ya'll will be excited to hear about the dinner we are doing the day we arrive. I know I'm stoaked about it!

Thanks!

never

Yeah it does. I can't wait to do it!! I think for a 2 credit dinner that is a good choice to use that extra credit on.

Yeah Im excited about eating in the Grand Floridian too. I think I'll dress up for that one even though we don't have to. I just felt so out of place when we went to visit the resort last weekend in my regular clothes. It's so ritzy!

Thanks

Reading...comparing...

Ok, so we'll still both be at the Studios the same day. Did you change everything else? Are we still riding EE together on Monday? Did Chris decide he'd suck it up and ride that yet? Are you still going and leaving early? Can I come to LTT with you on Friday? Do I ask too many questions? Do I ask stupid questions? Is there really such a thing as a stupid question? Is everybody patronizing me when they tell me there are no stupid questions? (You don't have to answer all that...I'm just on a sugar high from Easter candy... )

Have fun at the Spirit of Aloha! My sister, BIL, mom, & dad did that last year and had a good time. They got some kind of drinks in coconuts. They looked good!

you are so funny Tat! You had me reading this like you were speed talking or something.

As for EMH's at AK on Monday, yes we will be there. I told Chris we'd be hanging out with ya'll there for at least a little while so we could ride EE together so yes we are riding EE together. And then we'll go from there on where you guys want to go vs where we want to go. We'll probably leave AK at around 2pm. No, Chris won't ride EE. I hate all of your questions so don't ask anymore Yes I am just patronizng youu What, are you crazy!? geesh....of COURSE you don't ask too many questions and no we're not patronizing you. We love you!! As for LTT on Friday, maybe you can get an ADR around the same time as us and we can ask to sit near eachother. We have another couple joining us there so I don't know how they'd feel about eating with a huge group the don't know If we sit close enough together we could have fun harassing the characters together

Hey just checking to see if there is a mini report anywhere in here

I haven't gotten to it yet. Work has been crazy and then when I get home lately I am scowering ebay for new deals on Disney pins. I'm so addicted. I was actually gonna try and work on it now since work has calmed down a bit thank goodness. It will be up by the end of the week for sure though because my Dad and Uncle are going out of town tomorrow morning and our sales man's wife is having a baby sometime this week (she's scheduled to be educed Friday morning) so it will just be me in the office for a couple days. I'm gonna at least try to get the pictures uploaded today, and hopefully get everything done. I'm not gonna make any promises because I can't seem to hold to them

 

[TrueEeyore]

Sorry, but you know we're going to hold you to those promises anyway

We're trip report addicts and we need our fix woman!!!!
