The shirt looks great! That is hilarious about the thong...
I am for sure out...my co-worker is visiting her sister, something it would take a LOT for her to cancel, plus, we have officially made family plans for that weekend (which will be a lot of fun, we are going to Wisconsin Dells!). I can't wait to read all about it and see the big group shot!!
Darn! We were hopeful that we'd get to meet you, Brooke. Oh well, that will just give us an excuse to set up another meet at another time, right?
Good morning all!
Alan the concert I am seeing is a different oneto Jose !! I can't remember who it is Will have to check which thred made arrangements on???
Ooh, let me know if you find out something different. I would love to see a classic concert, but Feliciano is not my cup of tea.
We almost always do morning EMH! We're like you - those first couple of hours are so worth it!!! Then we get out of there around lunchtime. We just did this on our most recent trip at DHS and the park was empty until about 11, so we left after lunch and went to Epcot which had evening EMH the night before so it was great!
Whew....that's great to hear! It has worked for us so far to do AM EMH. It's tough to get everyone up early and out to the parks, but if we just get up and go....and don't worry about getting ready until later in the day, we can get to the parks, do everything we want to do, go to our lunch ADR, and be back at the resort by 2pm at the latest. Then, we have the entire afternoon to swim, visit the waterparks, get showers, get ready for dinner, etc.
I agree Alan. We've even gotten to an am EMH park by 9am and still gotten ALOT accomplished by noon-1pm.
As for pm EMH parks - unless it's MK and it's open past 1am, I avoid them. We've tried DHS on a pm EMH night and it was a nightmare - long waits for everything!
That's great to hear. I'm sticking with the strategy. Also, that is very interesting about PM EMH everywhere other than MK. I'll certainly keep that in mind.
I am a bit bummed...nothing beats WDW...but I am excited about the Dells too! We are going with some close friends and celebrating our birthdays. Should be a great time with the kids.
Hope you all have a GREAT time!!! We'll be sure to include ALL the information about the meet in our trip report....with lots of pictures, of course!
Oh my gosh! I have been out of pocket since Saturday and it looks like I have missed so much! I may have to go back and rethink my whole strategy!
But I have the ADRs I wanted
Nah....don't worry about it. You sound like me, getting all stressed out over some small detail. Fortunately, I've got by DISbuddies to back me up! From the previous few posts, it sounds like our strategy should be just fine.
Glad to see you're going to TL/BB. We had wicked fun at each last September. They were among our favorite activities. It really is the perfect way to break up your trip, especially in hot weather.
We all went to TL last May, but ended up leaving after only 3 hours when DD started feeling sick. Later in the week, DS & I went to BB, but only had less than 2 hours. However, we enjoyed BOTH waterparks VERY MUCH!! I can't wait to go back to both! Crush 'N Gusher at TL was one of my favorite rides at ANY Disney park!
hey karajeboo!
We do the EMH in the a.m. too and knock out so many rides before the huge crowds get there. With the exception of TSM, we have done most of the biggies and are ready to move on to another park by the time the EMH park gets really crowded. Now, the evening EMH, we haven't found to be very helpful, have you? maybe because we are so tired fromthe morning?
I know in February, we did the EMH evening at Epcot and you couldn't stir those people with a stick! and Epcot is dark, really dark when it is late at night (why don't they have more lights over by The Land?) so it makes it seem even more crowded to me! And the shops were crazy! After about an hour, I packed it in and went back to WL.
But we don't have small kids so getting up early is not a problem for us. My husband and adult daughter love it when I get up at 6:00 singing "It's a Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood!" hey, that is my traditional way of waking everybody up at Disney and has been forever. They should be used to it by now, right?
You know how I know they love that song? They start throwing pillows. Now why else would they want to start the day with a pillow fight?
57 days and counting to the World!!
Sounds like we are all pretty unanimous on the strategy of taking advantage of AM EMH, then leaving the park in the afternoon. Also, sounds like we should avoid PM EMHs, unless at MK. Got it.
Our DHS plan is to arrive for opening at 8am (EMH). We are going to send DD & DW to TSM to get Fastpasses for all four of us. Then, DW & DD can ride TSM standby while DS & I head straight for RnRC and ToT. We plan to meet back up with the girls and use our FP for TSM. Hopefully, we can accomplish all of this by 9:30am or so.
LOL!!! I LOVE the fact that the fmaily starts throwing pillows at you early in the morning! My DW is a morning person also. As I get older, I am getting better about mornings, but as a musician I generally do not like getting up early. However, as you stated, IT'S DISNEY WORLD!!! WAKE UP!! you can sleep in when you're back at home!
: portion of the MMM on the 17th.
Thong.....ahhhh not I....I am SO not into butt floss!!!
