"SUCK IT UP BUTTERCUP! It Builds Character and Strength!" A July 2011 TR-COMPLETE 4/5

Yay, you're back! I hope you guys had a great time.

I love the new rooms at POFQ. The decor is so pretty.

I would love to take one of those carriage rides too!
 
Joining in! Finished the "Frumpin" TR a few days ago, can't wait to hear about this trip and your "surprise" trip. :goodvibes

I'm excited to read about your time in POFQ, I'm thinking about staying there next October!
 
It's ok panick over. You're there now :)

Oh yay. I'm glad. :goodvibes

YAY! Kristen is back! (: I didn't even know what the surprise trip was. I thought you had surprised Jess and brought her another friend down, but I guess it was the opposite way around. Makes sense :) Okay onto the update...

Hahaha yeah Jess and our friend Nat came down and surprised me. It was great!

The rooms look gorgeous! I was looking into POFQ and didn't like the rooms but I like this new style, very nice :goodvibes Maybe I'll end up staying there next time I'm down in the world :thumbsup2 Then you get a nice view too (:

The new ones are wayy better than the old ones. You should definitely look into it for your next trip! The views are generally all great too. :thumbsup2

STACEY! She is seriously starting to grow on me. I don't know if it's you always talking about her or something else, but I do love her TV spot always a great start to my Disney vacation. :teeth:

Can't wait to read more! :mickeyjum

Stacey is a beautiful person. She adds magic to every trip. :goodvibes It's probably me talking about her haha. I want her job.

Seriously...it's spelled Stacey?

I've been spelling it 'Stacy' for the longest time. :laughing:

Anyway, POFQ looks like an awesome resort! I gotta stay there someday.

Can't wait for some more updates!

I know! So have I! I've been spelling it the same way.

You should! I love it there! It's gorgeous. :cloud9:

I'll probably do another one in the next few days! :thumbsup2

Those carriage rides are super cute. :goodvibes

I hope you liked it, and I can't wait to share the rest of this one and the next one with ya'al! :thumbsup2

You should definitely consider it! It's one of my faves. :)
 

heyyy happy your back, even though I kinda already knew you would be back like 2 seconds after you got home anyways :p. I'm glad you got off the roopics, but my favs are the kristen's-in-disney-freakout-crazy pics you owe me some on the next tr :p.

Hahaha yes, the DIS is always a priority. :p

HAHA I think there are more pics of me in this TR than the next one. Well actually maybe not. I just have to get some of the ones Jess took and then I'm in business. But I've got a while before I'm gonna start that one anyways...not till this one's finished.​

I've been following your and Jess's adventures for a few days now. I am so happy to have come across the bathrobe princesses! I really want to stay at PO so I'm excited to see the rest of your report!

Hey there! Thanks for following along! I hope you're enjoying it! :goodvibes I definitely recommend POFQ to anyone!
 
I've enjoyed reading so far, love the pictures. Can't wait for more.
 
My oh my, I am SO behind on my TR. I updated ZERO times while you were away. Fail.

Love the room! Towel Mickey's make me giddy. I'm a loser. STACEY. ...with an E. So sad.

Haha it's totally fine. :)

I LOVE towel Mickey's. Such a little touch of magic. :wizard: Stacey with an E is throwing me off. I might just spell it without one so I don't stress myself out. LOL.
 
Joining in! I am loving your TR so far! Like many others I followed over from the frumps and from jess'. You are too hilarious by the way. Really enjoying the trip so far! I hope you take the bathrobes for another spin, maybe one day you can get them into the parks.... Or at least as far as the monorail so your two loves can combine. Ok that might be breaking some kind of Disney law but we can still dream. Looking forward to the next chapter :goodvibes

:welcome: Thanks so much! Jess' TR's are amazing! Haha I wish I could go to the parks in the bathrobe. That would be great. I doubt it though. I may take a spin on the monorail in one some day... BRILLIANT idea. I'm gonna try to do another update later tonight! :goodvibes
 
I also found your tr through Jess' reports. You girls are keeping me very busy with all the trips you have taken this year! We stayed at PO-Riverside last year- it's nice to see the other side. Can't wait to read more- and of course I am excited for the big surprise trip!

Chapter 6- Welcome Aboard our Highway in the Sky!

July 25th, 2011​

Hey everyone! Hope your Labor Day weekend is going well! I only have two more days until school starts, so I'm gonna try to get in a couple more updates before my life gets insanely busy. :p So here we go!

As our lovely bus pulled up to the Magic Kingdom, I saw this:

These resorts are soo cool!

When we got off, I saw this baby go by:

dsc01573ub.jpg


THE MONORAIL!!!!!!!!! :yay: :yay: :yay:

So did I head this way?

dsc01575d.jpg


Nope, but I did skip along by to the beautiful Main Gates music. This way?

dsc01578mt.jpg


Yeah, I'm gonna swim across Seven Seas Lagoon. I'm not THAT ambitious, even in Disney. I just liked the picture.

This was my real destination:

dsc01580h.jpg


I was very excited.

While aboard our magical adventure on the Highway in the Sky, I saw a lovely pic opportunity:

dsc01585s.jpg


I thought it was cool how Space Mountain was reflected in the water. I love that ride.

And then we passed this:

dsc01588n.jpg


Hope those got you excited for Christmas, Jess! 111 days, right? :cool1:

We reached our first stop on the ride of MY lifetime.

dsc01589mv.jpg


But we didn't get out there...

We continued on, and I snapped a pic of the most beautiful doors in the universe.

dsc01592bw.jpg


Aren't they lovely? Just make sure you stand clear of them!

We decided to hop off of MY paradise at the Disney-intended paradise.

dsc01594g.jpg


ALOHA!

This resort is definitely one of the best places to find gorgeous waterfalls. I wouldn't mind having this baby in my living room...not like it would fit or anything. :laughing:

dsc01595m.jpg


So happy to be there, smelling the divine smell of the Great Ceremonial House.

I had been dying to take Mike into the Wyland Galleries, given that he loves art and architecture and all that, so we headed over there!

He LOVED it. I had to physically remove him from that place after he thoroughly analyzed everything in it. But it made me happy to see him so excited, so it was well worth it! I also found a few things that I hope to hang in my home someday:

dsc01602h.jpg


Aren't they amazing!? Disney art is the BEST.

We were then ready to hop back on the Sum of All MY Thrills, but not before saying hello to this guy!

dsc01603je.jpg


He's a little funky, but precious at the same time. Sorry the pic is a little blurry BTW. I think Mike was still shaking from excitement about Wyland.

We went back up to the monorail station and hopped on, but not before long I had to say so long again as we got off here:

Up next: I have a minor conniption and fall in love.
