New Guy

[JackSkeleton]

Hey there everyone! Thought I'd say hello and let everyone I'm new and I'll be lurking around a bit and getting to know my way around. I have to admit I'm a little overwhelmed. There's alot to look at and I'm also checking out wdwinfo.com and a few other links I've found on here. Great stuff!

I've been to WDW twice now, looking forward to my third trip this October fro Halloween! I went once as a kid with my parents, brother and sister. I loved it so much I cried halfway through the trip, because I didn't want to go home.(I was nine) My wife has been more than a dozen times in her 24 years of life, and we took our first trip together with 2 of our kids in Aug 2007. We are heading back with our 3 kids and my parents and we JUST CAN'T WAIT!

Anyway, looking forward to sharing my love of all things Disney and WDW with all of you around here! Thanks!

Oh, P.S. Let me just say, the one thing I am REALLY UPSET about is, of all my trips so far, Space Mountain has been closed every time and on my trip this year, its going to be closed for refurbs and reopens the WEEK after I leave!!!

Thanks everyone! And yeah, we'll have to plan another trip ASAP, so I can finally ride Space Mountain. My only wish is that I never got to ride it before the refurb. But I guess I can always look at it like it will be better than before and I'm not missing out, I'm gaining!

You never know they might actually open the ride up a week early. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. I say this because on my trip in 2006 they had the Pirates of the Carribean closed for most of the week and it wasn't due to open till a week later. They were updating it with characters from the new movies. Well while we were there they had opened it early because they were finished. So maybe this will happen for you.

I keep hoping that too, but I don't want to keep my hopes too high. It would be a nice surprise though. I mean, c'mon! Three trips and it's closed each time!?!?! I leave on Nov 7th and it re-opens like the 21st I think....

Space mountain always seems to be closed when we're there too. Not that I'd ride it, but my husband just loved it the ONE and only time that it was open during our stay.
