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

[dismom9761]

sounded like a nice ending to a day in AK.

Thanks for the info on the codes.

HI! It eneded up being a great day even with GM getting hurt.Though she told me the rest of that day after getting hurt is still not clear to her.She was hurting alot worse than we knew.

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

Thanks!I am trying to do an update each day but it is hard with the kids' schedules... I am really enjoying writing it though.

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!

I should get the update with Kona done this evening!Are you all packed??

 

[dismom9761]

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'............

MEL!!!! I am glad you're here! I won't mind if you skim,I also should have my links done today.

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!

Rachel has gotten sick during or after every WDW trip we take. It was a week after we got back that she came down with Hand-Foot_mouth disease.I have blisters in my mouth so I guess that's what I have.
I also live that pic of Peyton... Is your son all better??

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

Yes, I feel like its the hottest park but we could never skip it.AK is Rebekah's favorite park.

I just wanted to beat DM

Ahhhh thanks

Well we all have our goals in life....

 

[dismom9761]

LOL!! I did too!!

HI!!

Wow you must have really worn her out!

Sounds like fun

Oh no!!!!!

Phew that was good going

Yay well done GP

HI JO!!! It takes alot to wear her out but opening and closing Disney parks seems to do the trick.

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.

I know alot of people don't like Dinoland but my kids love it too. Isn't it great that our kids nap in the parks?

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!!

Thanks! I will do the Kona update tonight!

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

HI!! You have to come out and say HI every once in a while..if you didn'y I wouldn't know that you have a trip report I need to check out. BTW,great ribbon!Congrats!

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

Thats good to know.Was that a good view from Canada??I am still deciding between dinner and lunch.Where did you stay??

 

[punkin413]

I should get the update with Kona done this evening!Are you all packed??

basically except for the toiletries. those always come last. i just have to make it through work tomorrow and friday.....i can't concentrate on anything except disney!!!

 

[DisneyPrncess]

We stayed at CBR.... we had a great view. Walked right out of the restaurant and stood right up against the gate. Of course the crowds were pretty light when we were there but the view was great. So jealous your going back...I WANNA GO BACK!

think you could throw me in your suitcase? Im little (5'4")..i think i could fit!

 

[monymony3471]

Here's my DD nice and cozy in Epcot last time.

She took just about all of her naps in her stroller.

That's why I like to bring my own. They are much more comfortable for that reason. She wouldn't get as good a nap I think in one of Disney's.

Next time we go she'll be 4. I wonder if she'll still be napping then? I know the baby would. Hmmmmmmmmmm......

Are you going to write a report when you get back? I am so jealous that you get to meet Peeps. I would love to read all about it though.

Thats great to know about the view. Sure you can go!! More the merrier...you don't even have to be in a suitcase.just gotta get to my house and you can have a seat in the car.

LOVE the pic! Rachel took naps every day and only one was in a bed. I would think she might nap there when shes four.On most days I could have used a nap!How is that baby??I need to get over to the Peep thread...I am sure you update over there.

 

[zigzagzerr]

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

We call it that too.

Great picture!!! She looks bright-eyed and bushy-tailed!

Rachel has gotten sick during or after every WDW trip we take. It was a week after we got back that she came down with Hand-Foot_mouth disease.I have blisters in my mouth so I guess that's what I have.

Wow, I didn't know adults could even get hand foot & mouth disease! I remember my daughter having that as an infant -- it was truly horrible. I feel for you...hope you both feel better soon!

That has been going around here too. I have heard of several kids having it. A little boy down the street had it last week. My former neighbor (she just moved to the neighborhood across the street) said all three of her kids had it, and her youngest was just born in August! The oldest is only 5! I'm sure it was lots of fun at her house.

Hope you get to feeling better soon!

Amy,

all caught up again, DH is going to be home any second with the twins from Wed. night clubs, so this has to be super quick!

I too loved the picture of Peyton on the ride, his smile was just SUPER!!

I think we'll be skipping the Primeval Hurl.... They have a similar ride at a competion thrill theme park up here north of Chicago and over the summer took DD, DS and with my Dad and Bro there for the day. DS skipped it, whew! Cause poor DD was so scared...that ride just kepr twrilling around and we were whipping back and forth in the car.....me, Dad and Bro were laughing hysterically. Should have bought the ride pic, cuase DD's face was just priceless poor thing

Anyhoot, can't wait for the Kona review, as we plan to eat there for breakfast but hope you had a great time.

Shout out to DisneyJo Your welcome...you crack me up!

and to mickeymouseclubhouse That's OK I fogive you with the Sox thing....JK my Bro has always been a Sox fan, and my DH and family are those guys too, but DH is a mixed fan, cuase he loves listening to Ron Santo on the radio.

As far as the 5K..... still thinking, running some numbers and such, looked at flights out of Chicago, but all over the place....we'll see. (aldisneygirl thanks for the invite)

Till the next day, they're home and DS did NOT have a good time, he's mega-over stimmed. My poor guy.

BYE!

I was told that adults don't get it also but that we could get a viral infection from it.Both me and my assistant have blisters and sore throats though. I had five out of six in my class get it . She was bright-eyed! Wait until you see how long she stays up!

Thanks!!!Its not too bad.. I feel so bad for that family.I know Rebekah was a newborn and all three of them got sick for the first time and DH was working two jobs. Not fun...

HI! Sorry your son had a hard time at church. The turns on the ride are not too bad.Maybe you could ride it once and see what you think.It wasn't as bad as teacups in the spinning.

Let me know what you decide on the 5k. Whatever you decide.

Kona review will be up later.Going to upload pics now...

 

[jordanyosh]

I'm caught up, but my eyes are a little blurry now.

Nice report. I'm concerned about GM.....

It sounds like you need the rest Amy

I'll check back with you later tomorrow...I'm having trouble sleeping these last few nights before the BIG trip! Since it's 12:13 am in Chicago right now I officially have 2 more days until I'll be in WDW

I'm here & reading !! Actually I check like 10 times a day for an update LOL it's a sickness really
I just don't post a lot because - honestly - I don't have a lot of interesting things to say so I feel like I'd be taking space on your TR for nothing.

 

[LISAMWDW]

Sounds like you better get some rest! Hope you didn't bump your head falling alseep by the computer!

Take your time, don't worry about leaving us waiting for Kona!

 

[KathyRN137]

I forgot to say our January trip is for us to walk the 5k and we will be seeing two Dissers-Eeyore45 and Aldisneygirl.

Hey, don't forget me! [Insert boo-boo-face smiley here] I'll be huffing and puffing through the 5K, too!


GM is such a trooper! I think it was awesome that Peyton wanted to be the one to help her get around... what a good boy!

If you're looking for a nice "adult" dinner, how about Citrico's at the Grand Floridian? Or Flying Fish Cafe on the Boardwalk??
