Magicians & Jugglers & a Clown Slide, OH MY! We're going to the BWI... A Nov 2010 PTR

[Disney Mommy 3]

I have seen the Epcot passports sold at many little stands throughout the park. There is a little souvenier cart right outside the turnstiles and I know that they sell them there. Throughout WS, I'm pretty sure they're located by all of the registers. I'll check for you!

Oh Thanks Meghan!! I would love to do this if the price is not ridiculous!! Shelly was a good mommy and did hers homemade!!!!! I am a slacker!

 

[rusafee1183]

I haven't ever actually sat down to think about what attractions we have and have not done at MK... I should do that!

And trust me you are NOT MISSING ANYTHING by not seeing Stitch's Great Escape.

I think the pre-show is WAY too long. And the smell in there is TERRIBLE. I can appreciate some of the bad smells that Disney pipes in (like in ITTBAB) but in Stitch it's just gross.

I don't think I'd take a baby by myself. It would be fun, but a lot of work!

I wouldn't go by myself. I would probably go with my sister and her family. Logan says he doesn't want me to though, which is fine. It would be difficult to convince them to go with me anyways. They're planning on spending Thanksgiving at his parents' Orlando house, but I doubt they'll go to Disney.

What do I think??????????????


I think I wanna goooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Look at the Boys on that carousel--- smiling and having fun.

Sniff sniff.

Maybe it's hormones. Maybe it's just this time of year.
(Um, maybe it's that pin they sent me.)






I think your two days sound wonderfully wonderful!

I've never done the Riverboat either in all the times we've gone! Shocking.
I think the boys would Love to go to Tom Sawyers Island.
It's fun going into the caves and over the rope bridges.

I also think you should squeeze in Astro Orbiter- instead of dumbo- essentially the same, but better b/c it's higher and it makes me wanna hurl b/c I think I'm gonna die every time I ride it.

Good update!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aw, I want you to go too!!!!!


I don't know why we've never done Astro Orbiter. Just one of those things that gets overlooked I guess. Although I'm not sure how we overlook it when it's right up there for everyone to see!! As a matter of fact, I don't even know how to get up there!

I have to agree with Jo...seeing your pics breaks my heart that we're not going anytime soon!

I like your MK plans except I think your boys need to experience Tom Sawyer Island! My kids LOVED it last year. They ran across that barrel bridge more times than I could count! And the fort! your boys would be in heaven!

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make everyone sad!!

We definitely plan to make it to Tom Sawyer Island this trip. Yes, I know I said that last time, but I mean it this time!

Love the pics!!
Only thing about the Riverboat--It was in oct last time I rode it and it was sooooo hot on there!!! In fact, I got such a headache I was sick for the rest of the day. I know some of the things that trigger my headaches triggers yours too!! So...if it's a really hot day and the boat seems crowded don't do it!!! Ha!!! it's a nice ride, but man was I sick!!!

Thanks Shawna!

I will definitely keep that in mind if it's hot out. You're right, we are very similar when it comes to those nasty migraines. I am already trying to figure out how I can avoid that first day killer migraine I always get!

 

[Momof2Disneyboys]

OOOH another fun Shelley PTR!! Sorry I'm late to party, but I was very excited to see your link over on Meghan's PTR so I had to come by!!!

I too am staying at Boardwalk on my January trip (still loving that time of year!!!!)

Well I'm going back to catch up on all your details!!

Well look who it is!! Jen!

Long time no "see". Thanks for stopping by, hope you will stick around!

So I get to the BWI before you??? I will be sure to take tons of pics and do a full report. I can hardly wait to get there!! Congrats on another January trip!

Sounds wonderful! Wow, your photos are great.
I also think you'll all enjoy Tom Sawyer Island. It's a nice change of pace.

Thank you!

I think we will enjoy Tom Sawyer Island too. Especially the boys!

I haven't ever actually sat down to think about what attractions we have and have not done at MK... I should do that!

And trust me you are NOT MISSING ANYTHING by not seeing Stitch's Great Escape.

I think the pre-show is WAY too long. And the smell in there is TERRIBLE. I can appreciate some of the bad smells that Disney pipes in (like in ITTBAB) but in Stitch it's just gross.

I have heard that the smells are disgusting in Stitch's Great Escape and that it is rough on the shoulders. Being that I have have 2 shoulder surgeries I didn't think it sounded too fun. The kids aren't even interested. There's never a wait there. You'd think they would do something else with the space.

 

[Momof2Disneyboys]

I wouldn't go by myself. I would probably go with my sister and her family. Logan says he doesn't want me to though, which is fine. It would be difficult to convince them to go with me anyways. They're planning on spending Thanksgiving at his parents' Orlando house, but I doubt they'll go to Disney.

I can see why he wouldn't want you to go without him. He would probably worry too much. Hopefully he can get the time and you can all go!

I'll check on the price when I'm there NEXT WEEK!!!!

I can't believe you are going to Disney NEXT WEEK!!!! How does the weather look for your trip?

[JoBird]

PAID IN FULL 'NANER DANCE!!!!!










Look at 'em goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..........​

 

[JoBird]

the entrance is near the tsa...there's a sign...

You have to take an elevator up to get to it. The lines are always slow, so if you want to do it, you have to do it early as possible.

 

[Disney Mommy 3]

Shelly, I think I am gonna take some Excedrine when I am on the plane...especially because our sleep is going to be so messed up due to our early early flight.....I notice it starts to creep up during the line for ME!!! So, I think if I take something before we land it may help---the last two or three trips I have taken it after we checked in and are eating dinner....waaaay to late!! Already exploding by then....maybe we won't have one this year
(I love this little tiptoe guy!! Which is how I feel when discussing headaches!!!) OH!! I paid our trip off yesterday too!!!!

 

[JoBird]

Nurse Jo suggests a decongestant, a coke (Or Mtn Dew!) and an Excedrin right before the flight.
Then another Excedrin once you land with some water. Lots and lots and lots of water during the flight as well. You tend to get dehydrated during flights, which will cause an exploding migraine.

 

[Momof2Disneyboys]

50 days from right now I will be relaxing on the Boardwalk!!

 

[Momof2Disneyboys]

YAY!!!! That's the 3rd best feeling!!! 2nd is when you hit single digits and we all of course know what the #1 BEST feeling is!

5 DAYS!!

YAY for hot weather! I'm sure the showers will be quick, they usually are down there!

Take lots of MNSSHP pics, we are thinking of going next year!

Wow, I can't believe how close it is! Are your boys getting really excited?

The boys are getting very excited!! Although 50 days still seems like an eternity to them.

I give them the daily countdown every morning before they get on the bus!

Hmm. . . Not sure how we've never seen this. Probably actually have, just didn't realize it!

Is it really that popular? I don't think I want to wait more than about 10 minutes to ride it.
