~Our June '09 adventure~ I'm home! Started TR 7/2

[tinkerbell87512]

Qotd:

Hmmmm It's close between MK and Epcot. But I'll say the MK (only if the people mover is open )

 

[wdwgirl03]

The part that I hate the worst is driving out of the WDW gates and it says "See ya real soon!"

Aww, I hate that too!

As for the QOTD...Magic Kingdom for me too!

 

[lizet313]

Haha, you're like the only one who asks me questions anymore.

LOL

Ok well then I would do MK for sure. I love all WDW but the Castle just knows how to draw people in.


well your one month from today sad but at least on the bright side it hasn't happened although I feel like this is an extra trip you wrote it with so many details that I actually felt like I was there.


My question to you will be..

hmm I think I am running out of questions


Ok something simple I think

What is your favorite country in Epcot?

 

[tinkgurl]

QOTD: That is such a toss up between MK and Epcot. On my DD's 1st trip in 2006, we only went to MK. This past January was my DH and DD's first time at Epcot and it's now their favorite park! Hmm...if it really came down to it, I'd have to pick MK. There is so much to do and explore that I never get bored!

I love the MK too!

QOTD:

NO question about it, I pick the Magic Kingdom. There's just so much magic all around from the littlest things to the castle... and Wishes is just an added bonus.

We think the same!

I'm conflicted about this question, and here's why. I would have to agree w/ everyone else and say the MK, but.... we get to go to Disneyland at least once a year out here in California (sometimes more) and the MK is so much like Disneyland, that when we actually make it out to Florida we are so excited to see all of the other parks. There is definitely something magical about the MK, but when I plan our trip I think I get most excited about Epcot. I love when it is dusk and we are walking around World Showcase when all of the lights are coming on.

My question for you: What is your favorite spot in all of WDW? When you close your eyes, where do you picture yourself?

That's such a good answer! I can see why you'd like the other parks!

My answer to your question: Right now? When I close my eyes, I picture sitting on the edge of the sidewalk in front of the Bakery at the MK. It's nighttime and the park is almost closing. Everyone's heading to the exit. All the lights, the smells from the Bakery and the Candy shop, and the lights changing on the Castle is the best thing ever!

 

[tinkgurl]

FIRST OF ALL - CONGRATS ON GETTING INTO THE GRAD PROGRAM! That is awesome! Also, um, I just noticed that your ticker is like REALLY getting close!! CRAZY! You must be excited! (Mostly because Eddie got an extension and will be at Rose and Crown until July so you can finally see him with your own eyes ) But seriously, you must be getting really excited!

OK, hopefully this will all fit!

Share a Dream Come True Parade - NO idea what this is and I don't think I've ever seen it/done it?
Cirque Du Soleil - AWESOME!!
Disney Quest - I'm not a video game girl so I don't think I want to waste quality time that could be spent in the Florida sun.
DTD Marketplace - I'll go with World of Disney! LOVE that place. Great for convincing you that you need 10 new things that you really, actually, don't. Good times.
Illuminations - No flames, please. I just really don't think it's that great. Went with a first time last weekend and made her at least watch it to see if she liked it, but she got bored so we left. Did it used to be different? The first time I saw it in 2004 I swear it was better.
Spectro & Wishes - Two of my favorites! Must do's! Wishes makes me cry. For like, 10 minutes, I really have hope that my wishes CAN come true.

Question of the Day..

Favorite park and why? Okay, MK should be everyone's favorite by default because it is the original, so I'll go with EPCOT as my "favorite".

One ride in each park? MK - Pirates. AK - Safari. DHS - THE AMERICAN IDOL EXPERIENCE! Love this. Epcot - No favorite.

How many times have I been and how many do I think I'll go?- Let's see, I went about once a year from ages 2-6. Then I went when I was 12, then from 17-20 I went once a year. Last year I also went for my birthday, then twice this year. I think that is a total of about 12! With *hopefully* one last hurrah this December to "celebrate" my graduation! So after 2009, I hope to be lucky enough to go at least every other year.

If I could stay at any resort, which would I choose? I'd say Boardwalk. It's one I haven't really thought about but have been interested in lately. I've been lucky enough to try a lot of the other resorts, so this seems like a good choice.

If I could live in any park? Animal Kingdom!

Favorite spot to chill/relax/people watch? I love snacking around the World Showcase in Epcot, so really anywhere around there where I can find a bench! I LOVE peoplewatching!!

Favorite show? Beauty and the Beast! So cute, it's like a mini-musical!

First/last thing in every park before I go home? I don't really have specifics, but I do have a must-do list and won't leave until I do everything I wanted!

Must do meal? Ohana!!!! I seriously would not go to WDW if I couldn't eat dinner there. I'm TOTALLY serious, too.

Take any celebrity to WDW? Hmmmm...do baseball players count as celebrities because I would totally go with Manny Ramirez. I love him and he acts so goofy that I'm sure he would have fun with it all.

Least favorite ride? Well, I'll go with Rock n Rollercoaster. Mostly because I don't waste my time on rides that I don't like, but this one I will still do it is just not my favorite. Does that make sense? I just don't like to go upside down!

What do I look forward to most when planning? Choosing a resort and planning my ADR's!

If I could add a resort... I think that they pretty much have it covered!

Favorite non-park restaurant? That would have to be...the Plaza at MK, I think.

Favorite souvenier?These are hard! I have a stuffed animal stitch that is adorable.

What holiday would I like to go to WDW for? I'll say Halloween. I'm so sick of skanky halloween costumes around campus. I'd like to have some good clean fun for once!

What character would I want to be? Definitely Cinderella.

Favorite country to eat at/what do I order?I NEED a pretzel from Germany every time! I like to order it in German, LOL! If drinks count then I'd have to say an English Rose from the Rose & Crown!

Memorable experience with a character? When I was like 4 I was obsessed with Minnie and got a Minnie purse in the GF gift shop before we went to MK. My dad has it on tape of me getting to the park and getting too nervous to go see Minnie. Then she pointed at my purse and loved it and I finally got a picture with her. Then I thought I was SO COOL!!

Favorite MK treat? Dole Whip!

What former attraction do I miss most? The 70's/80's club at Pleasure Island! Does that count? I'm such a dork, LOL!

What ride will I never go on? Mission Space! Creepy!

What ride will I never get tired of? Kilimanjaro Safari!

If I met Walt, I'd say THANK YOU. Thank you for creating a place where you can bring smiles to people's faces and a place where you can leave the real world behind for a little while.

If I could only go to one park, I'd choose Ahhh. EPCOT for the World Showcase and MK for Spectro and Wishes. I CAN'T PICK!

Haha, girl you make me laugh. You actually got caught up! All your answers are good! I agree with a lot of them.

 

[tinkgurl]

Qotd:

Hmmmm It's close between MK and Epcot. But I'll say the MK (only if the people mover is open )

Haha, so true!

Aww, I hate that too!

As for the QOTD...Magic Kingdom for me too!

Of course the MK!

LOL

My question to you will be..

hmm I think I am running out of questions

Ok something simple I think

What is your favorite country in Epcot?

Aw, I'm so glad you liked my 1 month from today!

My answer to your question: I love Italy!

 

[tinkgurl]

1 month from today...

1 month from today will technically be July 2nd. We'll wake up in Nashville and begin the last drive of the trip. Nothing too exciting.

We'll make it home in the afternoon and unload the car. Then, we'll get together all of our stuff we got for the little guy and head over to Uncle's to see Uncle, the little guy, and grandma and grandpa.

That's the only thing I'm not looking forward to about going...I'm going to miss the little guy SO much. Last year, I called grandma every day to see how he was doing and he'd "talk" to me on the phone. He even accidently called me one time because he was playing with B/F's phone while he was at Uncle's eating lunch. Now, he actually can talk on the phone so that will be interesting I'm sure!

Question of the Day...

Today's question comes from Sunset Cliffs!

What's your favorite spot in WDW? If you close your eyes, where do you picture yourself?

 

[lizet313]

Question of the Day...

Today's question comes from Sunset Cliffs!

What's your favorite spot in WDW? If you close your eyes, where do you picture yourself?

Easy the MK infront of the Castle of course. I think I can stare at the castle for hours and hours.

Aww that is nice I know how it feels my nephew was on the phone with me a couple of times and kept asking me where am I at? Why haven't I gone to see him aww I almost felt like taking the next plane to get him to go with me. When I came home I went to go see him and he runs up to me and screams I miss you!! That was a good day .


My question to you is

hmm if you would give out any advice on anything of WDW what would it be?

 

[Dancegrl624]

QOTD- When I close my eyes, I see myself at the end of Main Street (by the Emporium) just staring at the Castle. It's actually the background on my phone right now! So beautiful!

A very close 2nd is standing in front of the American Adventure looking towards Spaceship Earth. It's yet another picture I have on my phone. I alternate between that one and the Castle!!!

 

[jewels1916]

If I could only go to one park while at WDW, it would be Magic Kingdom. I have to go see the castle.

My favorite spot in WDW, (where I wish I was right now) is on Main Street USA facing the castle. Sitting out infront of Main Street Bakery. Eating a cinnamon roll.

 

[PookieB]

Question of the Day...

If you could go to only one park while at WDW, which one would you choose and why?

The Magic Kingdom! The castle, Wishes, POTC, and Spectromagic are all my favorites! DHS is my second favorite.

 

[stacikristine]

If I could only go to one park, I'd probably have to toss a coin between MK and Epcot. I love both of them so much. I think I like Epcot more, but I feel like I have to go to MK when I go to Disney World. So we'll just say 1/2 a day at both!

And...when I close my eyes, I picture myself standing on Main Street looking at the Castle.

And how great is it that you get to come home to the little guy?! He's going to be SOOO excited to see you!

 

[xoktenox]

I'm going with the typical answer and saying Main Street in the MK. At night. Just standing there, looking up at the castle all lit up. With music playing quietly in the background and Main Street all lit up too. Ahhhhhh

 

[AlohaPolynesian]

Hahah well I told you I would catch up! These questions are fun! Right now I am stressed so if I pictured myself there I would have to be at the beach at the Poly sipping on a Pina Colava looking at the castle. No wait, I'd be at the Rose and Crown starting at Eddie. That would definitely get rid of some stress!! (You do know I'm never going to stop talking about him, right?)

Of course the MK!

My answer to your question: Oooh..Understand that you're probably not going to get EVERYTHING in that you want to on your trip. IT's better to just decide what you REALLY want to do and everything else is possibilities. If you go to WDW in commando style, you're not going to have time to "stop and smell the roses" and your trip will be over in a flash!

Hey, sounds like our favorite spots are in the same place!

The Magic Kingdom! The castle, Wishes, POTC, and Spectromagic are all my favorites! DHS is my second favorite.

Oh yeah! I love all those!

If I could only go to one park, I'd probably have to toss a coin between MK and Epcot. I love both of them so much. I think I like Epcot more, but I feel like I have to go to MK when I go to Disney World. So we'll just say 1/2 a day at both!

I know, I"ll be ready to see him!

Haha, yeah seems like everyone loves that!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, Eddie! I know you're never going to stop.

 

[that's nice]

What's your favorite spot in WDW? If you close your eyes, where do you picture yourself?

My favorite spot is at MK... once you walk under the train and you are able to see Cinderella's Castle. That is Disney to me. We do MK on our first day every time.

I'm still around. I haven't been DISing too much though. 3 more weeks of crazy!

Who is your least favorite Disney character/why?

 

[punkin413]

Question of the Day...

If you could go to only one park while at WDW, which one would you choose and why?

MK hands down. it IS walt disney world to me.

 

[hlrababy]

Absolutely...MK!!!!!!

I can't believe you only have a month left!

Absolutely, the MK is so wonderful!

I'm glad you're still here! I can't believe it's getting down to the last days!

My answer to your question: Whoa, that is a hard one! I'd have to say any of the villians! I really don't like the Witch from Snow White!

MK hands down. it IS walt disney world to me.

Same for me!

Absolutely...MK!!!!!!

I can't believe you only have a month left!

I know! I only have 18 days left girl!

 

[OneTreeHillAddict]

The one place I LOVE ~ BTMRR! I think back to the time we were on during the fireworks. It was so nice. I could ride that coaster for hours and not get sick of it. I can hear the sounds right now...OMG chill bumps!
