LINK TO MY TR POSTED 10/30 - I'm Ali & I'm Addicted to Disney Planning - Oct '10 PTR

[PrincessInOz]

Hello everyone,its me Lumar and I am happy to make my official disboards debut, though technically I have had an account for a year now. I am ashamed to say I have not been as active with it as I should be. I have been through a lot since November and I think I needed time to heal. I think that now its as good a time as any to join Ali on this site and I look forward to interacting with all of you. I decided to start of with a list of my top ten things I am most looking forward to on this upcoming trip.

1.Haunted Mansion.
Not sure if Ali has elaborated on my love for this ride, but it is definitely my favorite and we listen to Grim Grinning Ghost son a daily basis.

2.Steak and eggs at Kona Cafe
This is what I had the first time we went to Kona and I have not stopped thinking about it since. Needless to say my mouth is watering as I type this.

3.The tower of terror
Another one of my favorites. I actually like waiting in line for this one. It is my favorite queue. From entering the gates, to waiting in the court yard, then waiting in the lobby for "check in", watching the classic intro in the library, and then finally waiting in the boiler room for the "service elevator". Just cant be beat.

4.RNRC
Since I will be just a few steps away from this awesome thrill ride while I am recovering from the tower of terror, what better way to speed that recovery up than by going from 0 to 60 in 2.8 seconds?

5. Pizza Planet
This one is a staple. We have done it every trip. Not just the food but spending some quarters at the arcade.

6. Hall of presidents
A great attraction that just makes me proud to be an American.

7. Kali River Rapids
We havent done this one in a few trips, so I am looking forward to getting soaked in the way that only this ride can provide.

8. World Showcase
What can I say? I love to eat and I love to learn about diffrent cultures around the world. Plus I love to speak with people that have accents. There is no other place to do this all in one day than the world showcase.

9. MNSSHP x2
An experience so nice we are doing it twice.

10. Returning to Coronado Springs
I cant decide between this or French Quarter as my favorite resort, but I sure am happy to return and check out the Ranchos portion.

So what do you all think? Did I do good in my first official outing? Please let me know. Im really excited to hear some feed back. I know this is Ali's thread but I'm hijacking it.

You are hijacking Ali's thread. I like both your top 10's....perhaps you should stop being a terrorist and starting your own thread. It would be interested to see how things work out with both viewpoints on display.

Me too, me too! I love your list. When I get a chance, I will have to make one of my own for my PTR. As for your list...I can see why they made your top ten. Your number 3 spot has me quite jealous!

I'm sure I borrowed the idea from another TR somewhere along the way!

We will be there the same time frame (well the 21st to the 28th). We will be doing the mama Melrose on the 21st but is is a 3pm for F!. What time will you be there? Oh and Ali.. I know it can be tough to live with a guy who loves puns so much!! My DH is constantly trying to come up with them and he really thinks he is so punny!!

Hello and welcome!! Our ressie at Mama Melrose's is 5:20 so we will miss you by a couple hours!

I don't mind the tag team method...it allows for both points of view all in one place!

 

[Simba22]

Woohoo!!! Jet Blue has bumped up our flight time!

 

[Overexcited]

OK so I went and created lists! I just do not know how to put a link to my PTR with my post. We had fun making the lists, I even called my DH at work and told him I had a job for him. He replied "I'll put it on my list", I replied "funny you said list"....

If he only knew!

You can actually put the link to your PTR in your siggy. Here's how:

Go to you TR, and copy the entire address that it's the browser/address bar.

Go to your User CP and on the left hand side, click Edit Signature.

Here you have two choices:
You can just say "Here is my PTR" and then paste the link (don't forget to add [ url ] before the link and then [ /url ] at the end - without the spaces between the brackets)

OR

Type in the title of your PTR, then and highlight it.
Click on the little button above the text box where you see the Earth.
paste the link into the box (make sure http:// is only in there once).

Preview your signature first to make sure it works!

I love both of your top 10 lists! I might steal that idea for my PTR, if you don't mind...

Lumar, you and I have similar tastes in rides! I LOVE LOVE LOVE Haunted Mansion and Tower of Terror!

Reading about all of these places you are eating at is making my mouth water...

 

[Overexcited]

Thanks, I am trying to figure it out I used to be good at these things. Now I have a 1 year old trying to eat dog food while I look at this, I am a bit half brained lately!

 

[Simba22]

Well now I've gone and done it....

I signed up for the Disney food blog....

Now I have to figure out a way to schedule in a trip to Beaches & Cream so I can get this...

It's a Milky Way Sundae

Like I said, I'm pretty sure I borrowed the idea myself so please feel free!

I torture myself on a daily basis by reading the WDW menus and visiting the food porn threads...

I just busted out laughing and the people I work with are staring at me now!

It looks like you have it right, but you have "HTTP://" in there twice

that.looks.amazing.that would kill my stomach though....

Lumar's too....I have to remember to bring a LOT of lactaid on this trip! Although I suppose Mike and I could eat the sundae and Lumar could have something wimpy....like a popsicle....

It looks like we can catch Fantasmic at 7:30 on our second DHS day, then head over to Beaches & Cream and then go back to DHS afterwards...They have EMH til 10:30 that night...

Sounds like a plan

Lactaid works sometimes for me and sometimes not....

Yeah Lumar has the same problem. It depends on what he eats. If he eats sour cream it doesn't help at all.

Do you have to be in the park when EMH start or canyou arrive anyti
e?

Don't forget that you can head out of the International Gateway at Epcot and walk to B&C. It will take you 5 minutes from IG....much quicker than fitting it into a DHS day/night.

You can arrive anytime - and the CM do check your KTTW - at entry and for each ride. So, keep it handy.

 

[Overexcited]

Thanks for the info! Now I won't feel like I am rushing to get to the EMH before they start!

Hi Ali, been away for a few days and just catching up on everyone's PTR now. Love the top 10 list! A lot of stuff I am in agreement with! I am probably going to do one soon because it's so much fun! It's cute that Lumar posted his list as well.
