Something About Nothing ... #12

[marciemi]

Most of us were planning on 3 today TinyD

If anyone came at 2 they should wait

Tiny said she would aim for two in case of early birds

But when at the parks a general time is best as shows run over and water taxis have a wait at times

See youse all around 3!

I asked you and Janet both to please let me know if it changed. Y'all have my cell. Sorry but not sitting here in the heat. Sorry guys.

Marcie I'm not in charge of this meet

I posted a few times I would be there at 3
Maybe you can catch the next meet up tiny listed for this week

Hope to see you there!

Looks like we're only doing Disney this trip- sad because I really wanted to see Harry Potter World again.

Good morning everyone. Had a great dinner at margaritaville with some homies. Today some water rides and pool time before meetup later.

Hahaha

Still in my room and have no idea if anyone has missed me yet



Did have loose plans for morning and today but have not heard from some so assume all are taking the day slow

Doing a tour this evening and the meet up at 3 today so I need to get moving out of the room and hit the parks

Hope you have a lovely time........bluer, so glad you all made it up for the weekend after all.........hope you had no damage to property..............


Still playing catchup on posts here..........seems I missed a couple..........

Anyone heard anything from PammyK this year...........she usually posts on HHN threads........will check there too........

Quick post - at final hotel and loving all the room. WYndham Bonnet Creek is awesome!

We've been very busy with house stuff and are preparing to make an offer on a house in Winter Garden. We just need to get the loan pre-approval stuff done tomorrow. (Internet says our bank will be open so fingers crossed).

Going to US/IOA tomorrow but due to missing doing it on Friday, I really need to focus on getting some of the kids favorites done and don't know where we will be when. I still don't have a cell phone so that complicates things. The plan is to start at US at 8am tomorrow and go over to IOA at 5pm. That's all I have for a plan right now. I'm guessing we will see how long the Gringotts line is first.

If you see me say hi. I'll have a maroon tank top on and have a tattoo of a winged foot on my shoulder. I have blonde hair and am 40-something years old. I'll have three kids with me including a boy and girl who both have very blonde hair who are frequently mistaken for twins, though they are three years apart in age. Hopefully, I can plan to meet up with any of you there on our next Universal day after this, when the kids aren't so focused on favorites. We are planning to go Wednesday as well. We may have to go Friday as we need to check out and I think hubby needs to work so we will need to go some place unless he feels he can ask for the day off so we can start the drive home.

Kholby, good luck with the house offer........we spent some time in Winter Garden this year........not as much as previous years, but it's a nice place.

Enjoy the parks too...........

It`s Monday!

Trying to get used to this new laptop.........very complicated..........I like simple.

But I have email and Dis at the moment..........priorities and all that.........

Quiet on here...........

Sounds like so much fun is being had with meet ups and such. Middle DS said he'd love to go to HHN one year, and so would I (mostly for the chance to meet so many of you) But between school and middle DS's football games, I don't see that happening.

Everyone have fun & drink a Butterbeer for me..or eat a Big Pink or two

Morning Sans family . What a week for everyone. Glad to hear everyone was able to make it to Universal for the meet ups. Universal is my happy place indeed. A place to forget the trials of the outside world and chill when I'am there. I look forward to every trip.

Our neighborhood was spared home damage as far as I know. Houses were shuttered up ahead of the winds. There were trees down. Was sorry to hear others in Florida, Georgia and the Carolinas suffered damage.

Glad you and your family had such a wonderful trip this year.........is it a regular yearly thing now..........

I hope so ....I am going to meet sister for lunch this week and talk to her about making this a girls trip every September. Of course it will have to be during HHN. My niece and I will be talking about this for trip for quite sometime. It was so special to bring her to Diagon Alley after our RIP tour. It was after midnight and we had Diagon to ourselves. Streets were empty and no one was in the shops. Knockturn Alley was especially creepy and we loved it. I was able to actually pick up on things I had missed in the pass when Diagon and Knockturn are full of people.
I rode my favorite ride Escape from Gringotts as much as I wanted

Kolby hope you all are having fun and the house hunting goes well.

It is so nice to see parents making memories with their children at Universal. They will never forget it. I'am looking forward to my trip with the grandchildren in May already.

Have a great remainder of your trip to Mac, Lynne, Keisha, Tinyd and all the other homies at Universal.

Glad to hear HHN will become a regular event for the family..........hope we manage at the same time and have a proper meet this time!

And glad you had no damage to your home........always good to hear........



Trying to arrange my mum coming to visit us in next couple of weeks...........haven't seen her since August, too long..........

Another down side to living 5 hours away from family and friends. Another one of my friends in Scotland daughters has had a baby..........will look forward to seeing her at Christmas...............

Getting cooler here now..........

 

[macraven]

Are there any meets today ?

Was looking for two different peeps that wanted to meet up And stated it on the boards
One is a new person to the Disboards

 

[macraven]

Said good buh buys to blue crew and pcstang family

Ate at blondies
Love their potatoe salad

 

[Lynne G]

Nope Mac, but if anyone wants company for dinner tonight, can text or call me. Had fun as crowds were some, but much less strollers, though got it in the heels again, and great cooler weather.

The horror make up show was particulally funny today. Had nor seen it in a few years. Also enjoyed the pet show again too. Cute.

Resting now.

 

[Squirlz]

Enjoying another happy hour here at the Curry Mansion. Two hours of top shelf pour your own booze.

What time did you go? We went to 1230 and it was pretty funny.

Nothing will beat the one on my birthday trip though. It all started with an accidental guest interaction and it spiraled out from there. It's hard to explin.

 

[macraven]

Still chilling in the room
Have not thought of food yet

Betting Lynne ate already

Tiny, did not see you in the parks today

Said adios to the Blue crew and pcstang today

Oh and also to Janet!

Just spent 11 full hours in the parks. My knees are so tired from Camp Jurassic. Sorry I wasn't able to meet up easily - things went better doing our own thing with our long park day in there. I finally got to ride Hulk. I've missed Hulk so much. I didn't get to go through the line though as it was too long of a wait to do it that way with two kids still too short. We got to park right after 8 and Minions was a walk-on. Gringotts was 20 minutes by the time we made it back there. Then things got crowded. We used single rider line when needed though, so that helped. Some rides don't let you do child swap with single rider though so eldest sat with youngest outside the ride. Thankfully, the weather was perfect today and eldest looks older than his age and youngest wasn't in a running away mood.

Still haven't had a chance to do Pteradon Flyers. The child who said she would do it was mad for an hour after the fountain squirted her so our timing was off. Hoping to do it Wednesday. Hoping crowds are down in Wednesday but I noticed a LOT of accents so I expect they weren't there due to a day off from school.

We are going to be able to head home on Friday. I'm not looking forward to the yard work after the storm.


I really enjoy the horror show. But my youngest had to be carried out screaming the last two times we did it. My husband did the carrying out while I stayed with the others and watched. Since he's at work while I'm solo with the kids most of the time, I figure it's best to skip the horror show.
