Memories of Little Green Men and Sardines (6/8-17, 2010) **FINAL UPDATE 2-25-2011**

I'm jealous of Luke. I so cannot sleep on a plane. And our airplane ride is over 3 hours.

Things we want to try next trip

Magic Kingdom

Splash Mountain - I need to do that one again. Last time was in 2000
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad - Fun, but really short. So it's not worth the long long long line
Enchanted Tiki Room - I like it hehe But I don't know what will happen to it following the small fire.
Carousel of Progress - A relaxing must
Country Bear Jamboree - So corny but I like it
Haunted Mansion - A must do twice, three times.. Well as many times as I can fit it in
Jungle Cruise - The skipper makes all the difference
Monsters Inc Laugh Floor - I just wish I am not picked lol


Animal Kingdom

Nemo - A new fave
Beauty & the Beast - Did you mean at DHS?
Festival of the Lion King - A Must
Kali River Rapids- I have to try it once

Epcot
Soarin - It's fun. But not worth the long waits for me
Test Track - What a rush


Hollywood Studios

Fantasmic! - Great, but I hate getting out of the theater lol
Animation area - A fave
Muppet Vision - cute
Toy Story Midway Mania - Fun!

----------------------------------------------------------------​

I already started listing restaurants on my PTR, but some of the places we want to eat at are:

Magic Kingdom

Crystal Palace - We'll try it this trip
Tony’s - A family fave. We sometimes go twice.


Animal Kingdom

Tusker House - I love breakfast there!


Epcot

Le Cellier - Best risotto
Chefs de France - To me... it's overrated

Awe, so cute that Luke waved goodbye! You should make it a tradition

I know! It was soooo cute! It will definitely be a tradition & the great part is that its not something I tell him to do...he does it on his own! Which makes it alot sweeter! ;-)

I'm jealous of Luke. I so cannot sleep on a plane. And our airplane ride is over 3 hours.

I'm jealous of Luke sleeping on the plane too! I am so anxious on airplane rides there is NO WAY I could ever even think about sleeping. I usually read but sometimes I don't even remember what I read because I'm not focused on the magazie/book...I'm just worried about the flight. Wish I could get used to it!

Our airport is thankfully only about 45-60 minutes away...if it were further away, I'm not sure how we'd make it traveling with a toddler! LOL

Thanks for the suggestions/advice!!! I will put your suggestions into my Disney planning notebook!

About Beauty & the Beast...I don't know what I meant...LOL...we've never seen any of the shows so I have to research which show is at which park! Oops!

Alot of the things you mentioned, I haven't tried at Disney yet! Mostly because the past two trips were just too crowded. The lines were ridiculous, even for Fast Pass! So we will definitely try them out! I'm looking forward to Haunted Mansion & Jungle Cruise because we didn't do either last trip. I was hoping to see Enchanted Tiki Room but I don't know if they'll reopen or not since the fire. I can't believe we skipped the Animation area at DHS & were at the park 2 days! I want to see Sorcerer Mickey and maybe Lotso.

Thanks for the suggestions!

Just finished reading your report - for crying on ME. Don't feel silly about it, you are NOT alone!! We all get it, it's never fun to leave Disney!

And for Luke sleeping on the plane ride! LOVE THAT!

Okay, I'm off to your PTR now!

Yeah, sometimes it gets to me more than others. Most of the time, I'm a big girl and hold back like I'm expected to, being the matriarch of the group and everything, but there have been a few times tears have welled up in my eyes before I could keep them back. It's never fun to leave.

I wish my pictures could be as clear as yours.

Thanks Brook! I did feel kind of silly when other people were looking at me for crying a little bit! But I knew if anyone would understand, it would be all my DIS friends!

Luke always sleeps on the plane! I am always jealous because there's no way I could ever sleep on an airplane!

Not much happening on my PTR but I did make ADR's last week!

Yes, I completely know what you mean! I am supposed to be the one who holds it together, but I just couldn't help myself once we boarded the ME & headed towards MCO!

Thanks for the compliment!!! I appreciate that! I always wonder what other people think about my pictures! I need to work on taking better pictures in dark areas & definitely of fireworks! I don't feel that I got more than 1 or 2 good fireworks pics, although I was holding my park bag & a toddler plus holding my camera over my head to take them!

We didn't see Illuminations last trip so I didn't get any "practice" taking pics of the show. Next trip the Xsi is coming with us, so I'll hopefully have some great fireworks shots to share!
