Oh, Turkey leg you done wrong by me! A Complete Trip Report w/ Pictures!

After the parade I realized we still hadn't used our FP for Indiana Jones! Of course the time frame was 3:15 to 4:15pm and now it was 7pm but the nice CM said you only have to pay attention to the first time and anytime after that would be ok. That's a lesson for me in the future. Just grab a bunch of FP (obviously at different times) and then wait until the latest one and do a bunch of rides in a row:woohoo:

Anywho so we quick-step over to Adventureland and get on Indiana Jones in a snap. The stand by wait was 30 minutes from the bridge entrance! So including that wrap around line closer to the exit, it was probably a 50 minute wait! Once again, Indiana Jones delivers a great experience. We were actually able to cut like 10 kids because we had a small party:cool1:

After surviving the Eye of Mara, we finally took Anais to Tarzan's treehouse. If anyone wants to get in shape, just climb that three times a day for a month. WOOOOOOOOOOWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. When we got back down my mom's and my legs were shaky.
Now it was Anais turn to choose the rides. First up was the Matterhorn, which my mom decided to pass on because she wasn't feeling her best (hypothyroidism). We decided that I would call her once we were done. The line for Matterhorn was very short (compared to earlier in the day) and we boarded the Tomorrowland side (near Nemo). We were screaming our heads of and the whole time Anais is yelling "We're gonna die!"
That always makes my dad and me crack up because it reminds us of the Incredibles movie when they are falling from the plane:rotfl2:

We survived the Matterhorn afterall and I give my mom a call on her cellphone to tell her we're done and she's like "WHAT? Already?! I'm by Pirates!" :rotfl: After talking to her I learned that she went the LONG way around. Like past the Big thunder Ranch!
Anais and I ride the teacups while waiting for my mom to get back to Fantasyland. She arrives with a big turkey leg. Anais and I are starving so the three of us share the turkey leg. From Fantasyland we make our way back to Main St. and I get some nice night shots of the back and front of Sleeping Beauty Castle.





Now be kind, I said they were nice not spectacular;)

Last minute shopping and saying Goodbye
 
As we make our way down Main St. I go to the Music Store to buy a CD for a fellow DIS'er while my mom goes to the sweets shop to buy my dad some chocolate (I LOVE their almond cluster chocolate thing :love:). After having a nice chat with the music store CM, I go to the Emporium to see if I want to buy anything. I'm SO tempted to buy a pin-trading start up kit but it's SOOOO expensive. As I'm contemplating on what to buy, it hits me. The stabbing pain and nauseousnes. Okay, I can't look anymore so I quickly purchase my AP holder lanyard and jet over to the bathroom.

Now those details will be left there...in the bathroom. OH TURKEY LEG, WHY?! WHYYYYY?!?!?! After about 15 minutes, I think I can collect myself and get out to Main St. where the fireworks have already started. I call my mom and she and Anais are watching the fireworks and want to stay until it finishes. I've already seen them and I didn't want to see them again if I didn't get to start from the beginning so I go to the little corner store stand by the left entrance and look around. I've decided that on my next trip (Ladies Trip!) I'm going to buy a name tag to wear around the parks. From what I've read they only put real names on there but maybe I can persuade a CM to put my forums name on it instead. That'd be awesome!

We exit the park around 10pm and I'm not sad. You want to know why? Because since I bought an Annual Pass I'll be coming back. Wanna know when? In 17 days precisely for the DIS' Girls Only Trip!! I'm more excited than ever!

We arrive home by 11pm and guess what I do. I'm on the DIS until 1am

Tanks for sharing,

First.. I enjoyed your TR! Very nice! ;) Now that you have an AP I hope to see more pictures and TRs from you!!! :wizard:

Second.. What store do you get the name tags? I've seen people with them but don't what store they make them.
 

Love the report, sprinkles a little bit of Disney Magic in my life when I can't be at the park!

Courtney, I grew up in Oxnard!! :cool1:

Its the stand right as you enter DL, using the right hand entrance under the RR tracks. They have Happy Birthday, Reg. Tinkerbell, and some others I can't remember.
 
Oh Fairy-GooooodFAilerrrrrrrrr!:wizard:
My son's face was soooooo cute when the mail came yesterday and we handed him the postcard from 'Mickey'......first puzzled then sheer GLEE!

Your addition of the Mickey stamp topped off the magic!
You're one GOOOOOOOOOD Godmailer!!!!!

Thanks again!
 
I'm not lying, that camera adds about 10 pounds to your face! Ugh, I looked like I had my wisdom teeth removed right before taking the picture. Scary!:scared1:

What is wrong with there camera??!!! I thought it was just me, my AP pic looks like I am storing nuts for the winter! :crazy: WHY do they do that? I was actually thinking about "loosing" :rolleyes1 my AP so I can take another pic! :cool1:

Awesome trip report!! I'm glad that you got so much accomplished in 1 day! We didn't actually go into the parks on that day...we were in DTD instead! :thumbsup2
