Happy mother's day to all you fine folks!

Oh and my family was shocked that the longest line we waited in was 14 minutes. Thank you disboard friends teaching me planning expertise!

In lieu of my usual May trip where there was hope of RoL, animal floats and lotus flowers - I opted for real horses and drinking lilies at Churchill Downs.

When was this?! This past week?

Yes!
MK Sat 4/30 8 am BOG breakfast, done at 8:45ish, 7DMT before 9, 1st in line to meet Ariel, little mermaid ride, enchanted tales, Pooh, searched for Minnie ears, it's a small world, haunted mansion, hall of the presidents, Pecos Bills lunch, BTM FP+, SM FP+, met Jasmime and got my first Dole Whip, Pirates FP+ by 2 something pm! Then we took the train to Main Street then boat to Ft Wilderness even though I wanted to stay for the parade. :'( came back in the late evening with Tomorrowland FP+ but didn't make it in time for Wishes.

Second MK day 5/4 it was raining so almost everything was a walk-on. I continously booked FP+ on my phone through the day. We had a boat on Pirates to ourselves, and an almost empty Columbia Harbor House!

My trip report will hold barely any surprises.

Does that mean we will soon be able to book? Finally!

 

[Paigevon]

We will be back 5/30 MK 3 pm - Wishes, 5/31 MK 9 am - 11 am, AK 4 or 5 - Junglebook, and 6/1 Epcot! I didn't see any buttons past trip. I'll keep an eye out again. If anyone will be in the same place let me know ^_^

My daughter is "playing" Disney World right now. Her new toys (6 of the Mickey gang mini plushies) are about to go "ride the haunted mansion"! Hehe

My grandma agreed to let me drive her down to Epcot to see the Flower & Garden festival sometime in the next couple of weeks!!!

Showtimes are pretty much what we expected, but @yulilin3 reported in the other thread that the HUB now has NO Jungle Book info listed anymore (dining packages or show info). So not sure how reliable the showtime info may be?

Among the many reasons my Aug/Nov planning is in a holding pattern until OFFICIAL release of info. Though I'm still always happy to hear HUB updates and rumors... Can't help myself...

It's $6.99 and completely worth it. He has show times and character meet and greet times.

I have to confess, I just cannot get excited about the interim JB show. I'm sure it's due to some sort of 'RoL letdown syndrome.' The JB show will probably be great, but I'm just not feeling it. Hoping the reviews will inspire me.

Go to characterlocator.com, go to menu, click on animal kingdom, then shows. Scroll down.

We were at AK yesterday and can I just say that the ROL area looks absolutely fantastic in theming? Now if the top of the seating area just wasn't that aweful Fantasmic bleacher seating, it would be perfect. I hate those bleachers!

We're thoroughly enjoying our stay! My DS7 did Jedi Training today. He didn't understand a word but he was so good mimicking what the others did! And my DD3 got picked for the end of FOTLK yesterday for the dance part. She was over the moon! Again, didn't understand a word but she was good just going around shaking that rattle LOL

Hey Loungers !! Ok, so there is a good chance that I am going nuts--- ordered our MYW tix for our upcoming (6/30) trip for DD and DS --- wife and I have annuals that expire end of August --- anyhoo --- right after I ordered their tix online, received e-mail confirmations and the tix showed up on MDE ---

So today, (and it was a cute surprise) we received hard tix --- I'm almost positive that when we went in November and I ordered DDs tic, it was just on MDE, and was automatically linked to her MB -- (these tix are already linked as well)

Did Disney start sending hard tix again recently ? ( or maybe we just never received her ticket in November ?)

Of course, we called Disney to see if the tickets had to be linked, and the CM had no idea what we were talking about!

TIA !!

If I didn't have a chance to see *real* RoL in September for my birthday trip I would loathe the jungle book filler....
