[Lady Lallie]

I'm back I've been mia a lil so i'm going to go catch up on your report!

Welcome Back!!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(Insert a picture of Katie yelling, screaming, stomping her feet and pulling out her hair)

YOU ARE KILLING ME JEN!!!!!!!!!!!!
First a solo trip, next LL and in the fall Paula and Christine

Julez and I are going to gang up on you for this!!!

(OK, I am happy for you, just sad for me)
FYI: I guessed from your first set of clues

Awww, Gnomefest will be here before you know it!!

OH YAY!! Jen and LL!! Aw that should be awesome! You two will get to have a pre-gnomefest! Can't wait to hear the details!

Thanks Jess! I think we are both really excited.

Love the picture with you and the castle. All your pics are so pretty though, I love your hair!

Exciting, you'll have a meet up during your trip. New cast of characters looks great!

Aww thanks. I struggle with liking my hair on a daily basis so I appreciate the compliment.

Yeah, a partner in crime!

You got it!! It's going to be so much fun!

I am glad to hear that you will be having some company on your trip. Looking forward to hearing all the details. Are you going to do the tea together?

I will be posting our itinerary shortly!

Joining in our your fun pretrip report We're going in May too, but we'll be there from the 12-19!!!!

Welcome & thanks for reading!!! I am hoping the May weather is really nice!

Whew! I missed a lot!

Fantabulous TR notebook LL! They must have made that special for you. Who else would want a chandelier on their notebook cover?!

Jen gets to go again?! Girl! That just sounds like trouble. Jen, LL, and Nobby. Oh man I can't wait to hear about that!!

The scary thing is that it was the last Chandelier notebook in that size, in the larger size they only had two left!! There must be other light freaks out there like me!!

okay okay! I hope i see you when im down there and youve inspired me to do a cute Flat Stanley type deal like Nobby! Ohh and I wish I had 56 pages of PTR with tons of people commenting!

Your trip is going to be wonderful! I love your notebook and the pictures you posted

ADRs soon!

I really can't wait to make ADRs. It's killing me not having them set already. You will gain readers, that's what happened with me!!

Thanks. I hijacked it from a knitting board I'm on. They had tons of Twilight ones. I think this one made me look less like a dirty old lady and more like a fan. Most of them were Edward ones.

Hehehe. I am listening to Breaking Dawn right, sigh.

SO, now are you and Jen writing this PTR?? WOW....lots of changes in a little bit of time!!! It's getting hard to keep up...only kidding!

I think Jen will just help interject her opinions, thoughts and musings on here. We are both very good at random babblings!

Oh No...LL is completely writing this one...LOL!!

I'm only going down for a brief weekend...she has so much more to her trip to discuss!! LOL!!! I might interject here and there during her trip report...but I'm leaving all the major writing to her LOL!!!

These are WONDERFUL updates to your trip!!! A happy gnome and a great Jen to pal around the World with---TOO MUCH FUN!!!!!!

Can't wait to hear about all your fun escapades!!!!

It's going to be a lot of fun. I am so excited!

So excited that Jen is going to be going you...this is going to be sooooo fun!!!

It is, I really can't wait. The days need to fly by!!

 

[Philadisney]

Haha I LOVE the Gnome! How fun. And how cool that you will have a friend along for part of your trip!

 

[Lady Lallie]

As many of you guessed, Jen is going to be joining me on this PreTrip Report. I think a lot of you already read her current TR but if you don't, you should go check it out. It's super funny and tells all about Nobby's first trip to Disney.

Hobnobbing with Nobby (A Gnome's 1st Trip to the World)

And yes, that was a shameless TR plug for my gnomie, Jen.

Jen and I have been very, very busy planning our schedule and our ADRs. Some might call it obsessed, I prefer to call it dedicated. Be warned, anything I post is subject to change. We are both indecisive.

Day 1.
*My plane lands around 10:30AM. Jen will be leaving her house in the wee morning hours and driving to Orlando. I think she is planning on arriving around the time my plane rides.

*While I'm arriving via Magical Express, Jen will be headed to Downtown Disney to buy some delicious candy-fied pretzels and also to purchase the Tables in Wonderland card. Woo Hoo for saving money!! Now it says that you can't use it on major holidays but doesn't list Memorial Day. Does anyone know about this? I think Jen is planning on calling to clarify.

*Jen & I will meet up at All Star Music. WOO HOO!!! I am very excited. We'll complete check in, if our room is ready then I am sure we will get the lay of the land and check it out.

*Head to....MAGIC KINGDOM. I can't wait to step onto Main Street. It's one of the best feelings in the world.

*We don't really have any set plans for MK, just take it as it comes and do what we want.

*Tea @ Grand Floridian. Ahhhhh, so relaxing, so girly, so much fun.

*Back to MK or head to Epcot. Not quite sure where the Disney winds will take us after our Tea.

*Dinner @ Rose & Crown. We are hoping for a table around the time for Illuminations. We are both looking forward to the fish n' chips! Yum Yum.

*Head back to ASMu, tuck in Nobby and get some sleep!

Yay!!! This is going to be so much fun to follow! Great first day!!!

 

[2xcited2sleep]

Fantastic first day plans!! I'm looking forward to hearing all about tea and dinner at R&C. I've never done either one. Also looking forward to hearing about ASMu.

You gals are going to have such a great time!

As an aside, can't answer the holiday question but really like my Tables in Wonderland card. Can't go wrong with savings. And the discount is even on adult beverages... which for me, as you might imagine, is quite a savings.

Looking forward to more, changes and all. And yes, I'll agree with dedicated vs. obsessive.

 

[DisMomAmy]

Great day 1 plans!

That's so exciting that you have not only one travel companion, but 2!!

I can't wait to hear about your adventures.

 

[kschafer]

Sounds like a wonderful day 1

• Pretzels
• MK
• GF Tea
• Fish and Chips

sounds like a winner to me!

so if you get the tables in wonderland card, is it good for a year? If I have learned my math, that means it will still be good for gnomefest

 

[Lady Lallie]

Haha I LOVE the Gnome! How fun. And how cool that you will have a friend along for part of your trip!

Isn't he the cutest??!!

Yay!!! This is going to be so much fun to follow! Great first day!!!

Thanks!!

I was pretty excited that the discount was on adult beverages as well, always a plus in my eyes. I am really, really looking forward to Rose & Crown, I just love England in WS so I think I will be very happy at Rose & Crown.

Great day 1 plans!

That's so exciting that you have not only one travel companion, but 2!!

I can't wait to hear about your adventures.

Yes, it's going to be doubly fun with my traveling companions!

Oooh, Katie! I love your bullet points. Yes, I believe it is good for a year. It's totally worth it for Jen to get since she can use it multiple times!!

 

[Charleston Princess]

What a busy, but fun, first day you have planned!

Take lots of pictures at the GF tea and Rose and Crown!

Oh yes good a whole year from purchase and will be with me during Gnomefest...that's how I'm going to afford the slushies I have to buy you ladies LOL!!!

Great update LL!! I love it!! Our first day is going to be great!! I'm getting to meet you and I'm getting to see Nobby again and I'm getting pretzels...and while you may not like tea I LOVE IT!!! Win Win LOL!!!

 

[wlwilliams9]

This trip just keeps getting more and more exciting! Great first day plans! I can't wait to hear more about you, Jen & Nobby and your crazy antics!!!

 

[MaryAz]

How fun to have a buddy!! You both will have a blast. Looking forward to reading the rest of the plans.

 

[Lady Lallie]

It will be busy but I think it will be worth it. I am really hoping to sleep on the plane too since I will be by myself. Of course I will take lots of pictures!! I am debating on whether or not I will bring Marc's point & shoot camera along with mine. I was thinking the P&S might be good for airport shots and just quick pictures I want to take. Sometimes getting mine on the right setting is a big giant pain.

Oh yes good a whole year from purchase and will be with me during Gnomefest...that's how I'm going to afford the slushies I have to buy you ladies LOL!!!

Great update LL!! I love it!! Our first day is going to be great!! I'm getting to meet you and I'm getting to see Nobby again and I'm getting pretzels...and while you may not like tea I LOVE IT!!! Win Win LOL!!!

MMmmmmm, slushies. I might have to try one before gnomefest. I think I will at least try tea, the tea that Brook's DH had was one that interested me and he gave it a good review and he doesn't like tea either. Hmmm. I am at least going to TRY it.

This trip just keeps getting more and more exciting! Great first day plans! I can't wait to hear more about you, Jen & Nobby and your crazy antics!!!

I think it's going to be exciting. At least I know I am excited.

How fun to have a buddy!! You both will have a blast. Looking forward to reading the rest of the plans.

Thanks!! Oh, there will be many more plans to come!!

 

[pooh'smate]

I am so excited for the two of you. It sounds like you guys have a great frist day planned. I am really looking forward to your tea at the GF.

 

[disneydusted]

Hi LL! I've been following your PTR and I haven't posted in quite a while. I felt so bad for you when you thought you had to give up your trip THEN you were going alone and THEN you had Nobby coming and THEN you a fellow DISer! You are going to have such a great time!!! It sounds like plans are forming and getting made... nothing more fun than planning a Disney trip!!

 

[MegansMom]

Day one sounds like a winner!!! Seriously, how can you go wrong with plans like that???!!??!?!?! I'm glad for you that you are going to start your trip out with Jen---I think that will ease you into the process of your alone time later in the week---oh to be able to go and do just what you want---that sounds so FANTASTIC!

 

[autumnpalm]

Looks like a great first day! Seeing the castle so early in the trip just makes it feel like Disney. I would love to try the Rose and Crown, can't wait to read about it.
