Premature Trip-Elation

[Mumbler]

Good luck, I think you'll need it. Maybe you and Sirius and your kiddies will get "lost" from the rest of the family during the day. WDW is a large busy place and if you end up in EPCOT while the rest of the family ends up at MK then I'm sure that would be their mistake and not yours. You'll meet up again eventually anyway.... if you tell them where to meet for dinner.... which you will.....right???

Drive safely!!!!

 

[TwinkieMama]

Mumbler- you are too funny! and full of great ideas.... all those busses look the same anyway... Anyone could accidently get on the wrong one.....

The Askew family should be on the road now
My tummy feels kind of funny as we wait for the drama to unfold...
The suspense is killing me! Will the manipulator in law whine the whole time... Will it be HOT in Florida in August? Will a popular theme park contain LONG LINES? Will the kiddies have different interests and want to experience different attractions??????

(insert Twilight Zone theme music here)

Poor Slate!! I really feel for her and Sirius too!

Took my mom and dad in 2003. When we discussed going back next August both kids and DH said "they're not going this time, are they??"

Nope - won't do that again!! LOL

Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.

Hmmmm - wonder how much alcohol Slate took with her??

 

[UtahMama]

...I cant imagine it being HOT in August with LINES!
Poor S'late's probably trying to accomodate the whole whining kit'n'kaboodle for meals and what attraction at what park/when etc.
I think she'll be OK though.
Once she gets on the wrong bus with her DH and DK's!!!

Drunk pin trading should be interesting though!

Dont worry S'late! We're taking good care of your Trip Report!!!
(what could happen?)

 

[tinkerbellang]

What could happen???

Only that it gets hijacked and becomes 100's of posts long before poor Slate has a chance to post again.

You think she'll do it while she on-site???

That would be awesome - then we could get all of the gorry details while their going on. . . .

TR within a TR! and find out how many adult beverages she's consumed. . .

or better yet

how the drunken pin trading is going??

 

[cjhinch]

Oh my, I can just feel the drama starting to unfold!! I completely give you the freedom to drink as much as necessary to get through this trip!! Can't wait to hear all about it when you get back.

Will it be HOT in Florida in August? Will a popular theme park contain LONG LINES?

Believe it or not the past 2 days have not been too hot, maybe in the low to mid 80's and when I was on the official WDW website just about 1 hour ago it stated that the temp there was 79.

The parks may actually be a little less crowded now than in June and July as most of the FL schools are back in session.

Things are eerily quiet right now. There is a serene look on SO's face. The Alcohol consumption today was at a minimum. Did I forget to tell you we left a day before the outlaws did? Well DGP and DGM did leave today but we have yet to hear from them. We are resting before the chaos at the Sheraton Safari just outside the gates... Gotta love a $45 layover cost. So it is just the 5 of us for now. And all there is to do tonight is sync mp3 players and sleep.

DON'T PANIC

 

[TwinkieMama]

Oh Sirius- thank you so much for the update! If you want to laugh at some other family's dysfunction then go read Mixed Marriage 2- TwinkieDaddy is trying to ban me from the DIS like that is going to happen....

I hope you have a Magical time and end up with lots of happy stories about PTUI (pin trading under the influence).....

 

[luvmyboys]

Good luck Loud Family! Pixie Dust (and a pitcher of margaritas consumed in your honor!)

 

[UtahMama]

WHEW!!! we are very glad you are ok so far!!!!
Yes, go read the Mixed Marriage 2!!!! It is a riot, baby!

Good Luck Louds!!!
Yes, Margaritas with Percocet, Paxil, and Valume.

Go get ths shiney pins, S'latey!

 

[mikayla73]

Oh this PTR has me already! I guess you are there by now and the Summer Sanitarium tour is under way (great name BTW )

S'late be sure to drink plenty of liquids, I hear that helps (hey they didn't say what kind so who'll know if there is some rum in the diet coke or vodka in the cranberry juice?)

Be sure to follow some of the others advice too .. "Oh that bus looks a little full. You guys can take it, we'll get the next one and we'll meet up there." Although this may only work the first couple of times so I would save it for an emergency situation.

Have fun stalking the CM"s .. err I mean trading pins!

 

[UtahMama]

I'm pretty sure SoRul82? (S'late) should be back reallly super-de-duper SOON!!!

She'll probably crash for a few...minutes...then be here to start the trip report to beat all trip reports! I am positively ITCHING to hear all the juicy details!!!

Welcome back Slatey!!! Did you kiss your life Hello? Hope you are OK, sweetie pie!! Sorry for hinting (loudly) you may need heavy medications and/or alcohol to survive. But your did survive and we're proud of you and GLAD you're back~ (us)

So gitamoveonalready!

Funny you mention it... we just landed back home bout 20 min ago. I will say she is currently resting . So don't post too loud. I don't want to spoil her fun but I will let the following slip.

I GOT TO DRIVE I GOT TO DRIVE I GOT TO DRIVE


DON'T PANIC

We are at home now.

 

[UtahMama]

Tell her to wake up and wip out her TR then she can sleep!!!
That'd be great.


PANIC.

 

[UtahMama]

IS SHE AWAKE YET?





HOW 'BOUT NOW?




Did you guys have alot of Paparozzi following you around since you're DIScelebrities now? Did you see ANY stolen Alien Green Mickey Head paint chips? Any Lime Green at all? Did you run up and bear-hug a non-DIS lime green wearing civilian? Did you make Focker Eyes at anyone?Did you get our ESP (ESPN) messages to "accidentally" get on a different bus than the Askew Clan? Did you slip a Mickey to any whining family member?(DEEP BREATH)Did Felony behave for Aunt UtahMama?



WAKE UP S'LATE!!!!!!
(What? isn't 10 minutes PLENTY of nap following "The Ordeal"?)

 

[sorul82?]

It's ok now, I'm here! I'm still half asleep and we have football practice soon. I'll start typing late tonight or tomorrow (the kidlets start school tomorrow!). I will give you a few teasers:

The police were involved....twice
Grandma hates Epcot
Free dining and large groups don't mix

 

[Mic_n_Min]

Subscribing- can't wait to hear the rest!
