We were all super tired from the night before. I managed to go to bed by 1 and I knew that 5 am was just around the corner.
I got up at 5 and started to get ready. Another thing that I didn't like about Pop is that they don't have the curtain that closes off the sink area like they had at All Stars. Not sure why.
I got DH up at 6 and DB at 6:30. I wanted to be out of the room no later than 7 since we needed to drive over to the Poly. I think we left aorund 5 after which wasn't bad.
Last year we figured out that resort keys open up any resort gate so we decided to use that side of the entrance because we wanted to be able to park at the Poly and take the monorail to MK. It is so much easier on DH when we do this. Yeah, I know. Not suppose to...blah, blah, blah.
We were the third party to arrive that for our ADR that morning. The guys were grumbling because I made the get up so early and there wasn't even anyone there.
I also demanded that DB wear his 1st Trip pin. He wasn't very happy but he did agree to it!
I wore my brand spankin new Steeler's shirt that day. Front says "got six?" and the back says "the burg does" then it lists the 6 super bowls, etc. I also had my steeler's draw string backpack. This is important to note later.......
Our CM server was awesome. She messed with the boys a bit since it was so early in the morning. Even though I was suppose to be dieting, I HAD TO HAVE the Tonga Toast! Who goes there and doesn't get that????? THe boys both got the Big Kahuna which is too much food for me but man did the pancakes look good!!!!!!
.
I was clock watching of course because I did not want to miss the opening show at MK and I knew that I also had to try again to stand in line for my TIW card. Systems were down the day before and I was unable to get it!
We finished our breakfast, paid the check (no TIW discount for me since I didn't have the stupid card yet) and made our way to the Monorail station. The monorail was packed and DB and I ran in one car and DH in the other. My car was filled with Steeler's fans! Woo Hoo! There was one older man that had on a Steeler's hat that asked me where I got the shirt. He actually asked DB who is NOT a Steeler's fan and is a Browns fan. DB said he didn't know me....nice, eh? This then got us into a conversation with just about everyone on our side of the car. I got to meet a great bunch of people and share stories of what stores have the best Steeler's stuff, etc. It was amazing to see the number of fans there ..... dressed in their Steeler's finest. It passed the time while we were on the monorail. You know how it is when you are on the resort side. Seems like it takes forever to get there!
I went to Guest Relations to get our TIW card. Let's try this again!!! Well, the systems were STILL DOWN!!!!!!! The CM there though was super nice and gave me a FP to any attraction for our entire party that was good all day. SCORE!!!!!!!!!!!
We claimed our space for the opening show. I thought we had a pretty good one.
So did you ever get ready to take a picture and some jerk decides that this is the perfect time to either move in front of you or put his kid on his shoulders? Why the he** didn't he do that at the START of the show so that I could at least move instead of waiting until the absolute finale to do so? Nice picture...thanks dude.
I took pictures of the new banners. Yeah, they were laughin at me for stopping every two feet!
Here are all of the people making the mad dash after the rope dropped.
Once inside we went to Tomorrowland which is hard for us since DH and I always, always, always, go left when the rest of the world is going right! We hopped on Buzz which obviously had no wait since it was rope drop. DB and I rode together which didn't seem to thrill him much. Joe rode alone. We didn't get our pictures...not even redneck shots! DH and DB wanted to compete and ride together so we went again. DH said my picture was pretty funny but I didnt' see it.
When we left Buzz, we saw Buzz doing a photo session. Yeah, no one would go over with me....they were kill joys.......
We then went over to ****. I always enjoy this show. I was so hoping that DB would have been "that guy."
I wanted to do CoP. I casually mentioned it and it was like no one heard me. They kept on going.
We went over to Pooh which I adore and got into a honey pot within about 5 minutes. I just love that ride. DB does not like Piglet at all. Has never liked Piglet so we had fun giving him the business about that!
I took this for my mom...........
I love to take merchandise pictures too.
After Pooh, I wanted to go here....but I was out voted.
Up next......... Where did we use our good all day any ride attraction? Did it rain again?
Got a nail appointment people so I gotta stop here.
Hi! Welcome to my TR!
We noticed that there were not many new shirts and DH has the ones that he really likes....my favorite....Yoda.........pull my finger! 
One good thing was that the line went quick and there were not many people in the store at the same time. The last time we did SW Weekend we waited forever just to get in Wicket's Warehouse!
I am 100% Greek so we always comment about him and when he was missing that was the first thing DH said....hey, better issue an Amber Alert in your TR! 
Yes, we've been spending a lot of time at Disney this week ~ our season passes have black out dates starting next weekend and we can't go for over 2 months 
I could eat them as a meal all by themselves!!!
