Karin - I am home and can see this now and its is awesome! I didn't know it was complete with fireworks! Love it!
Fell a little behind due to the holidays and such, but I'm all caught up now. The biggest downfall to being in an accessible room is the lack of storage space in the bathroom, but the idea of moving the table was genius. You barely ever use the table in the living room as is.
Yeah for being caught up!
The table worked out great to hold our cosmetic bags. You know - a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do!
Yay! Morning run pictures. You know those are my favorites.
I know that people who run can appreciate run route pictures! The best thing about pictures is I get to stop for a sec and catch my breath. I never get to do that at home.
The Dumbo photos are great, love all the water shots.
Thanks! The fountains are pretty cool. Great addition to the theming of the ride.
And I've been to MK twice when the fall decorations are up, and yet I have never noticed the themed pumpkin carvings. Those are really cool!
I'm glad I'm not the only person who didn't notice them right away. Perhaps there are more now?
Love the update! I knew that there were great pathways around WL, but last year I wasn't running and so when dh took the kids for a walk on the path (where they too came close to a deer) I took a rare nap. (I never nap in Disney) Now I am feeling like I really should have been out on that path running. oh well... another trip.
See - there really IS always a reason for another trip. The paths are really neat, especially in the cooler weather.
The lobby of both the villas and the lodge is amazing! Christmas is breathtaking.
I love Christmas at the WL. I have visited, but I have never stayed there during Christmas and it must be so festive. It's got to be the perfect Christmas resort.
The new dumbo certainly is cute. I love the water under it!
It really is a cute ride and I agree that the water fountains are so festive. It's a great touch.
Great update, MEK.
Love the pictures as you took your morning run (and I'm with you....I'm useless without my morning coffee!
)
Thanks Kathy! Glad you like my run pictures. Regarding the coffee: Thank goodness that Cynthia loves coffee as much as I do. A roomie who doesn't drink coffee would not understand that addiction.
So glad that you guys got to do Dumbo; yes, it's still short as it always has been, but it is a must-do for us every trip or a certain hubby of mine would get very upset.
You got some great pictures of the detail on the dueling Dumbos.
I didn't know Mark was a die hard dumbo fan! That's so cute. And the details on the new dumbo are really a great addition.
Thanks! I hope you and your family have an awesome New Years!
Once again, I love all the Wilderness pictures! And I love the little glimpses of the Contemporary in there too.
It's really cool to see the proximity of the WL to the Contemporary. You don't realize how close they actually are until you walk that path.
Isn't Storybook Circus awesome? I didn't even see the completed product, but it was beautiful even when it wasn't finished! I took too many Dumbo pictures too, it's fine.
It is a really great addition to the park. I love it. At first I was a skeptic. I hated to see Toon Town go, but this really is a great addition.
As you may remember I really debated about getting up with you and hitting the gym and decided I'd play it by ear given the time difference. If memory serves I did awake, lazed a little and then got some coffee and got ready while you were gone so the shower would be free when you got back. I think I also had one of the yogurts we'd ordered but am not positive.
I couldn't remember whether you went to the gym or not, but I know you talked about it. And I know you went at least one morning. But I don't blame you for lazing it up for awhile.
I forgot about the yogurts - yum!
With it being so new I was surprised it was a walk on and equally so how short it was. I did feel like we didn't get to see and enjoy the new queue at all, but on the flip side really liked the fact that we were able to just walk on as we didn't have a ton of time that morning before our meet.
I was surprised it was a walk on, too! Especially since we got there after park opening. We only had about an hour in the park, so it worked out perfectly.
It was cute, darn cute, but I'm not sure I have a burning desire to go on it again.
I know what you mean.
I may get an update up today if I am killing a lot of time at the hospital but I'm mildly annoyed with photobucket so it may or may not happen. As you probably know they are changing the look/feel UI (User interface) on the site. There is a lot I love about the new look. What I don't love is that right now in beta it won't let me reorganize my photo's by date the way I want and for some reason today, even though I'd long gone back to the "old" style, it isn't letting me go back and therefore not reorganize my pictures. It's doable as it is as they are all up there but annoying nonetheless.
I had the same problem. It wouldn't let me convert back either and I really don't like the new format. I can't get my pictures back in order. So frustrating. I don't know why they had to change it. Makes no sense to me.

Don't let Stringbean hear you say that?
