[RobRees]

One more night then we are leaving it is getting to be so hard to keep the secrect from the boys. The bags and costumes for our boys are packed and window decorations are packed now to get DW and my stuff together tonight.

Welcome back ladies!

I'm about to shut down my computer for the week and go to bed! We're getting up at 4am to head to the airport. We are all SO EXCITED!

When we first decided to go on this trip and booked it, 13 months ago, my DD was a baby. She couldn't walk, couldn't talk, didn't have a single tooth and hardly any hair. Now she's a little girl and I can't wait to experience WDW with her!

Everyone leaving soon and before I get back, have a magical trip! See ya when we get back!

One more thing: I just wanted to add that our 10 day forecast was for rain every day and we only had rain twice. One was a huge downpour for about 1/2 hour and one was a sprinkle that didn't even count to me. So, you should all be good to go on that score.

That is how our weather was last year at this time...I'm hoping for a repeat!

[Smile4Me]

Here now thanx for all the help planning gonna have a great trip

 

[haven_alise1997]

Quick check in, hi everybody! Glad Lharpers boys r better scary. I have yet to see a lime green Mickey head and I do have our lil pink an green pin on our bags but no notices yet. The crowd seems very similar to when we came March 2010. Dtd is mass craziness!! If u have Hoop dee Doo readies make sure to give a good 1.5 or more to get there, we rode ft wilderness bus from AK an it took an hour got there right at 5pm so missed the pictures but those are not included in cost so no biggie!

We are in bldg 18 in alligator bayou, what bldg did u get?

 

[ForTheLoveOfDCL]

I hope everyone who is leaving now, has a Magical vacation!!!!

Today was my last night working for 2 weeks. Tonight Cedar Point had Christian singers Toby Mac and Skillet. Unfortunately I had to make money so only an occasional 1 min stop to listen...LoL

I can't wait...just 5 sleeps and I leave...woohoo!!!

well it's almost 3 in the morning so I better go to bed...I have to get up by 9 to get ready for church and then our celebration of our 25th Anniversary party for the church!! Fun day tomorrow!!!

 

[Marblies]

We haven't seen any Disers either, but there are Brazilians everywhere. No tour groups, just families. Lines for rides, you ask? Well, yesterday we did AK. Arrived before 10 and wait time on EE was 5mins which translates to walk on. We got fastpasses for later, but even mid day the standby was only 30 min. The safari was 10 min standby mid day, the longest wait was Kali at 40. (We passed). It was great.

Second the travel time to Fort Wilderness. If you go by bus you have to switch to the internal system so it doubles your normal travel time. We went to the sing a long for the first time and it was way fun. Felt like camp. The smores kits are huge. Like 20 marshmallows, 10 double grahams and 2 hershey bars (ok, could have had more choc) I gave 2 sticks and half our marshmallows to another family and they were so happy. Love spreading the magic, it has come our way sooo many times.

The sad part is this morning marks our half over point. Where did the time go? We are bouncing back for sure!

Isn't that a very busy time to go? I hae avoided it even though my two youngers have back to back bdays which I always thought would be cool in wdw.

These wait times are what I like to read

You're getting so close!! Wish I could have been there to see TobyMac. Have a fun day today!

Thanks for the updates, haven_alise1997 and Marblies! It's so quiet on this thread right now!I think a lot of people are gone, and a lot are preparing to leave, so maybe that's why it's so quiet! BorkBorkBork, I'm so excited for you! Have a wonderful trip with your sweet girl!
FortheLoveofDCL, that bag is super cute! I love Toby Mac and Skillet, boo for not getting to hear more of the concert! And MamaJessie, I'll be looking for you in AK! Our TH ressies aren't until a little later on the 25th, but that's our first park stop of this trip. One week from now, we're waiting for RD, them running for EE. I can't believe it's almost time, it seems to be going really fast.

well on a positive note. I did get to go back to both tour buses and deliver dinner to them. Would have preferred to be able to listen. I will have to watch the schedule for next year so I can go. So anyone close enough--watch the Cp. Website cause he or someone will be back next year.!!!!

Hoping everyone who has gone and is about to go has/had a magical trip! I also hope that anyone sick is feeling better!

We are down to just 3 sleeps! We leave very early in the morning on Thursday. So glad I dont have to anticipate it all day!

I have packed the kids and my stuff except for things we use everyday. Actually thinking of just going and buying new toothbrushes and a hairbrush just so I can be done. My DH is insistant that he is not packing until Wednesday night, but I think I am going to attempt to talk him into doing it at least on Tuesday. I don't know how he stands to wait until last minute!

If anyone is staying at POP from Sept 22-29th we will have a bright orange and black backpack with our lime green mickey pinned to it.

 

[sparks19]

Sparks I don't think we will cross paths except I am considering DTD the 28th but it wouldn't be until after we hit the water park. Figure we can get dinner there at TRex

Well we may just cross paths we will probably not be at DTD until late afternoon or evening we will be having DD's birthday party and then heading over to where SIL is staying at Fort Wilderness. so we won't be going to DTD until after all of that. So keep your eyes peeled for the lime green mickey on our backpack LOL

Little Hannah's postcard was mailed Thursday. We found Sorcerer Mickey to sign in HS. Hope you get it soon.

That's awesome. Thank you so much for doing that. She is going to be thrilled when she gets it

Is there anyone I can send to to return the favor?

I haven't had a chance to catch up on all the posts this weekend... seems weekends are always busy ESPECIALLY when we are one week out from DISNEY!!!!!

7 days. WOOHOO. 6 days until we leave and start our driving journey.

 

[L-Harper]

I'm SO excited for all of you that are leaving so soon! It already feels like we've been home forever. I can't wait to go back!!! It won't be for about two years though.

 

[lindap1]
