Okay, so that totally does look like it says "no dancing", which is probably what you needed that morning, lol!

Great update! I am excited that you got so much done that morning.

But, are you NEVER going to make it to a rope drop ceremony?
 
oooh - you made it to Disney! yay! Love the feeling you get when you first see the Disney arch and the castle!

Wow - it sure looks crowded though. Was it because of spring break? That line for HM looks so long! I'm so excited to ride TTA again though. It made me sad to see it down when we went the last time.
 
Girl, that was a big update!! :lmao:

I love the feel of walking into your first park at Disney!! It makes my stomach get all giggly inside! ;)

It was such a beautiful day when you were there!! So nice!!
 

OMG! :scared1: Those lines look SCARY!

But yaaaay for finally being the Magic Kingdom! I'm just like you.. that always has to be the first park we set foot into on any of our trips. I made sure it was Jake's first park! There's just something about it! :goodvibes

Yall definitely got a lot done that morning... WOO HOO! :woohoo:
 
Awesome update!!!!!

I got a SHOUT OUT!!!!!!!!! :woohoo::woohoo:

MK looks dead compared to how it looked the Monday before and the day after you were there!!!!

I love how they do the refurbs... they know how to keep them from looking too bad. Did you get any close up pics of the castle refurb?

Your BF.. ummm I mean fiance.. :rolleyes1 does look great! He did lose a lot of weight!! Good for you guys!!! :thumbsup2

Haha, thanks Tim. Of course you did! :thumbsup2

We were happy with the crowds. We're used to the summer, so it was a nice change for us.

I might have some up-close refurb Castle pics. I'll have to look.

:scared1:Was it really that crowded? And was that the line for HM? Jeeze how did you survive:confused3? lol I would die if I had to wait in those lines.:eek:

We didn't think the crowds were that bad at all. We're used to the summer crowds, so this was nothing compared to that!

great update! Great pics also!! Your TR is getting me really excited for my vacation! Can't wait to hear more updates and see more wonderful pics!! :goodvibes

*keala*

Thanks! I'm glad I can help get you excited for your trip.

That was a huge update!! Phew! I'm tired from all that walking all over the park. I love your excitement of getting there for the first time. That's exactly me too! Bouncing, and bursting!

I"m not sure I would have waited for 35 mins. for HM, but it is interesting how they moved the queue. Hmm.....

No more, Mr. Morrow; Mr. Tom Morrow?? I'm so sad now. I was looking forward to getting pretty silly listening for it!

Those FiP times were late! Was there an EMH this night?

So, what'd you get at Pinocchio's? No picture of the fruit bowl??

Haha, yes that was a big update!

The 35 minutes really went by fast we thought. It was neat to see how they moved the line.

Yep, it was EMH there that night. But...we didn't stay.

Sorry...no food pics. :rolleyes: Don't worry though, I'll be talking about Pinocchio's in the next update!

great pix! I am pretty impressed how much you were getting done even with the lines....

We really did get a lot done! The lines really weren't that bad at all.

just found this. read it all. now i'm hooked. :thumbsup2

Welcome! :)

The first trip to the first park always has a special feel to it, and when you look back on it in pictures, you can capture that feeling again. At least, I can.

The stretching room is not my favorite part of Haunted Mansion, for obvious reasons. I'm glad that it's only for a short time, and I'm always happy when the doors open. The stampede is a little much sometimes, so hanging back was probably a good thing to do.

I love a blue Florida sky making a beautiful background for the castle.

It will be interesting to watch all the Fantasyland renovations as these next couple of years go by.

The Splash Mountain area is one of my favorite places in the park. It's so shady, the theme is cute, and I like the gift shop with the roots on the ceiling and the big rockers by the fireplace.

Great update. I'll have to try to find your brick and send you a picture when we are there. :)

I don't like the stretching room either. I usually look down at the floor the whole time. :laughing:

I really am interested in all the Fantasyland renovations too!

The Splash Mountain gift shop is so cute!

If you want, I can give you our stone # and kind-of a general idea of where it is. That would be awesome for you to see and send me a pic!

MK is definitely my fav park. Enjoyed this update, keep em coming!! ps: I still say you could be tinkerbell!:tinker:

Glad you're enjoying the TR so far!

I'd love to be Tinkerbell! That would be so much fun. I'd just have to get some makeup to cover up the visible tattoos! :laughing:
 
Woo hoo, you made it to the MK! That's so cool how you always go see your brick. I wish they still had those or that we had gotten one when they did. :mad:

Those waits don't look too bad...it could have been a lot worse!

I can't believe they still don't sell them. There's still a lot of empty ones!

The waits were definitely not bad at all! You know we're used to June or July so this was nice.

What a great day at MK so far. I can't believe the line for HM! I don't think I've ever waited that long. I'm pretty bummed to hear that they changed stuff on the TTA. I loved all that corny stuff! I can't wait to hear about the changes to Space.

The line really wasn't that bad. :confused3

ahhhhhh.....the first day at MK!!!! so exciting for any trip. when we go back with the kiddo, MK will definitely have to be our first park, even if it's only for like an hour. i just want MK to be the first disney park my kid lays his/her eyes on, even if they won't remember it! :laughing:

:yay: i can't wait to see what you guys think of space mountain. i so want to ride it soon but that ain't happening for awhile!

:woohoo:

great afternoon at MK so far! can't wait to hear about the rest of it.

Aw..I can't wait to see pics from your baby's first trip Dawn!

Space Mountain thoughts will be coming up soon! :)

Okay, so that totally does look like it says "no dancing", which is probably what you needed that morning, lol!

Great update! I am excited that you got so much done that morning.

But, are you NEVER going to make it to a rope drop ceremony?

:laughing: I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks it's 'No Dancing'.

Actually, when we got there, it was around 3 pm because we were still driving that morning.

About rope drops? You'll just have to wait and see..guess you missed the live updates from my PTR! :laughing:

oooh - you made it to Disney! yay! Love the feeling you get when you first see the Disney arch and the castle!

Wow - it sure looks crowded though. Was it because of spring break? That line for HM looks so long! I'm so excited to ride TTA again though. It made me sad to see it down when we went the last time.

It really wasn't crowded for us at all. :confused3 We're used to June or July, but maybe that's just us. We never really had to wait a long time.

Girl, that was a big update!! :lmao:

I love the feel of walking into your first park at Disney!! It makes my stomach get all giggly inside! ;)

It was such a beautiful day when you were there!! So nice!!

I was so thankful for the nice weather! Especially when it had been raining cats and dogs the week before!

Great update! You guys look SO happy. :goodvibes

Thanks. :)

Haha, they really weren't that bad!

I'm so glad you like the MK too.

This was still our first day, so we didn't get there until 3 pm...because morning we were driving.

DUH! I knew that! But still, that makes it even better since afternoons are always busier! Haha.
 
Yay! What a great update! I'm so excited that yall are finally at the MK! :thumbsup2 Those refurb signs are great. That quote about times changing so fast is excellent. I'm going to write it down. Your FP times worked out perfectly. And you've still had tons of time to enjoy other rides! I forget that you all usually go in the summer--those lines look SOO long to me! But I'm sure it was a pleasant surprise since yall usually have much longer ones than that. :upsidedow And I'm anxious to hear about your Space Mtn ride!! Michael is still upset it was closed when we went. Again, you both look great in your castle pics! Can't wait to read more!

I just loved the quotes too!

My thoughts on Space Mountain will be coming up in the next update!

Yeah, the crowds were nothing compared to summer for us!
 
Hey! Sorry I went MIA and missed out on the rest of your PTR for this trip. But I am SO glad I decided to come back on the DIS now when you are just starting this one so I can follow along. Your weather looks amazing and so far your pictures are seriously making me feel like I am there! You and fiance both look great - way to go for being healthy and eating right, that's awesome! Can't wait for more...

Hey girl! I'm glad you came back.
 
Great update! I love your Dooney & Bourke bag. I really want one and I've been trying to restrain myself from buying the white sketch bag since I really shouldn't be spending $250 on a bag, I already have enough bags :laughing: Can't wait to hear about Space Mountain!

Thanks! I love it. I was asked by so many people where I got it. I actually got mine from my Sis, who bought it on e-bay!
 
Great TR! I'm hooked! It makes the 7 weeks that I have to get through before our trip in May seem easier! Love the pictures!popcorn::
 
I laughed when you said that the sign to stay seated looks like "no dancing" to you...it does to us, too! :lmao: My mom thinks it looks like "hold hands and no dancing."

I miss the "paging Mr. Morrow" on the TTA, too. I hope you guys enjoyed Space Mountain. I did it in February for the first time since the refurb and LOVED it! My sister was unsure at first because she had never been on it before the refurb, but she also loved it. :thumbsup2

You and your fiancee look great!

Aw I'm so glad I can help make your time go by. It's definately helping make time go by until my July trip!

Honey, I missed you leaving, so. . .

I'm such a bad, bad person.

Aw don't feel bad!

Haha, I'm so glad you agree with the "No Dancing"! :rotfl:

Space was definately fun!
 
Fun update.... very healthy of you to grab a fruit bowl-- we usually grab something sweet such as ice cream etc, etc,
