Our trip to our "Happy place" w/ pics & videos!!*new 7/7!!*Last day Magic Kingdom**

[aldisneygrl]

Is it full? Last night it wasn't. Try to come!!! I just looked agian, says it is closed...looking on the Disney Sports link page? Just open for groups/charities...non for ASD. PM what link your looking at.

I think you are looking at the marathon website. You have to go to the right corner and there is a pull down menu. Click on Family Safari Run. It still says 70%. We would love to have another Diser down there with us! I understand if you can't, but I didn't want you to miss out because you couldn't find the link. See if this helps..http://disneyworldsports.disney.go.com/dwws/en_US/marathon/events/detail?name=Marathon2008MarathonFamilyFunRun5KEventDetailPage

Amy - Glad you got the MEGA nap, and a happy girl at the end of it! Good job for GP paying for valet! Saved you time and effort. Sorry you didn't get to ride dinosaur. I got DD to ride it, but don't know if she would do it again. Although, we ran in to a boy from her school, after she rode it, and she found out that he was too scared, and she told him it was no big deal! Is this the same kid that was clenching on to me through the whole ride? It is amazing how brave they are when they are talking to a friend.

Hi Amy,

Just popping in again to read the new update!

Seems like you guys were able to fit a lot in at AK that day!

Primeval Hurl huh? Sounds like fun

I'm glad that you made it to your ADR's on time...can't wait to hear about Kona! Seems to get good reviews!



mousescrapper: Go Sox!

We had one more "must do" at Animal Kingdom and that was Primeval Whirl or Primeval Hurl as we like to call it.

Such an appropriate name

Rachel has been asleep two hours at this time.I am lucky to get a one hour nap out of her at home.

Isn't that always the way.

Love that smile

She is in an awesome mood after her almost three hour nap.

It's amazing what a little nap will do

I realized there was no way that GM could walk from where we turned in her wheelchair to our car.She was having trouble walking the few steps to get on the rides.

Awww...it's hard on us - imagine poor GM.

At the wheelchair return I asked for a wheelchair to get her to the car and after a few moments of confusion one was found.

Good!!

Sweet update

 

[aldisneygrl]

You asked how to do that?Are you wanting to know how to see who has posted on a thread?On your CP for each thread there is a number that says how many post there are on that thread.Click on it and it shows you the names.Did that make sense?

That is so funny. I thought you actually went through your whole report and counted each one. I was thinking, "Boy, Amy must really be bored or have nothing to do today, to sit and count everyone who has posted on her TR!"

I thought the same thing! I'm glad I wasn't the only one who thought you went through and counted each post!

I got to ride Dinosaur in 2005 but didn't really enjoy it because I felt so bad for my screaming kids. Thats funny about your DD Gotta be cool in front of the guys!

We did do alot considering our obstacles that day.Everyone but me loves PW-I tolerate it. Kona was my pick so I was nervous about everyone liking it.

HI! I keep telling my DH that I need to go back to WDW so that Rae can get some rest. I think Peyton was getting tired of having his pic taken...too bad.

[scottny]

sounded like a nice ending to a day in AK.

Thanks for the info on the codes.

 

[Trentmom]

Another Great Update!!

I love how fast you are with your updates. It is nice not having to wait so long

You take great pics, too

 

[punkin413]

She is hilarious to ride with because she giggles extemely loud the entire time.

she sounds like me! i just giggled uncontrollably on that ride. i didn't think it would be so fun!

can't wait to hear about your dinner at kona. we loved it there!

 

[lexmelinda]

I kept wondering why you hadn't posted an installment since you came back!

DUH! Check out the link, Melinda.

OK...so I'm here but now you're 26 pages into this monster and I may never get caught up.

Don't hate me for skimmin'............

 

[Muffinygood]

We'll see...


No Visa code. I think its a random thing.But the visa is great to rack up Disney dollars.

I love your multiple rambling replies! I do know there are alot of lurkers,gotta be when there are over 10,00 views.


Hadn't even noticed that..


Thanks! I actually think I may be getting Rachel's virus she had last week but I don't feel as bad as last night.


I'm not!


I can't tell-my throat feels like I have razor blades in it but I don't feel as bad as last night. Thanks for asking!


I don't know.Call the main CRO number and ask.


Your trip is soo close! Are you all packed??Where are you eating??How long will you be gone?See if I ask questions you can't just lurk it would be rude.

Thanks! I actually think I may be getting Rachel's virus she had last week but I don't feel as bad as last night.

Well, we were there at the same time..... And 4 days after we got home N came down with something. Turns out to be strep throat. He missed 4 days of school because it upset his stomach so much! So, if that sore throat keeps up GO TO THE DR! You don't want to mess around with strep. OH, and N had no sore throat at all. He was stuffy and had a tummy ache. Who knew??? Oh, and great updates! Love the picture of Peyton's HUGE grin!

 

[winniethepoohsmom]

Other than GM hurting her leg it sounds like you had a great day in AK. I give you a lot of credit for staying all day in the heat. We actually skipped AK this trip, is it true that it's the hottest park? Looking forward to hearing about your dinner at Kona's, I plan on making a ressie for our trip next Aug/Sept. Linda

 

[DisneyJo]

CHEATER!!

Didn't work-Mickeymouseclubhouse still has more than you! LY/MI!

I just wanted to beat DM

I like you DisneyJo

Ahhhh thanks

 

[momtoccc]

I thought the same thing! I'm glad I wasn't the only one who thought you went through and counted each post!

LOL!! I did too!!

 

[DisneyJo]

BTW Rachel has been asleep two hours at this time.I am lucky to get a one hour nap out of her at home.

Wow you must have really worn her out!

She is hilarious to ride with because she giggles extemely loud the entire time. I even heard Peyton laugh outloud a few times andGM ended up loving it also.

Sounds like fun

I had just realized that our ADR at Kona was at 5:30pm and not at 6:00pm like I thought.

Oh no!!!!!

We found the Poly easily and arrived a few minutes after 5:30pm.

Phew that was good going

GP said he would pay for valet parking to save time and my legs

Yay well done GP

 

[monymony3471]

My kids love Dino-land. When we were there in Nov we practically had it to ourselves. I found a spot and the boys just kept getting on primeval hurl over and over. That was during Mal's nap.

 

[*DisMom*]

love the pics and can't wait to hear all about Kona's. never been there, but have heard great things about it. it might have to be on our to-do list for our next trip!!

 

[mla1977]

I'm here! I just like to read most of the time.

Pretrip installment


I talked to Harley last night and we made some decisions.I still need to book the hotel but I got frustrated with the noise level in my house while making the dining ADRs so I will wait until later...

This is what I have so far but it is subject to change(and probably will)

Jan.9-arrive

Jan.10-Ak,check in for 5k,MGM,50' Prime Time Cafe,Fantasmic

Jan.11-5K,California Grill at 8:00pm We wanted to eat at Tony's for a late lunch but it will be closed.

Jan.12-Epcot,Le Cellier at 7:30pm That was the only time I could get and I am afraid it is too close to Illuminations.

We still need one more ADR...

We have decided to stay at All Star Movies unless we come into unexpected $$ and upgrade to a moderate.

I also want to read the link that Mousescrapper gave me and look into Narcooses per Muffinygood's reccommendation.

Hey There, we were just at the world last week an had an 8pm ADR for Le Cellier (just two people) and got seated at about 10 after. We walked out of the restaurant at 8:55 just in time to see Illuminations. Our waiter was very helpful, and didnt rush us- but made sure we got out on time. We had a great relaxing dinner, but also got to see the fireworks! so no worries!1
