The Do-Over Report.**Updated 7/28 ** Day 1 MK!!!! w/oPICS!!!!

Great tease CK!

So cool about the Princess Diana story! I think she was so classic. I would have been impressed too!
 
Same captain & boat as Princess Diana?? That is pretty cool. Did he tell you any stories about the cruise or couldn't he talk about it?
 
I'm a little late to your great TR. We have been to the WL twice before & loved it. Next time I'd like to stay at a monorail resort cause I feel a little out of the way at WL.
You do start back at school so early. I don't know that I'd like that. August means summer to me.
Anyway, good luck next week.

Yes we do start back early, but we do get a week off in October, that's why. We also get out of school May 20th, so it all evens out.
 
Our first park day! MK!!!!! Yay!!!! We get up bright and early and head down to the Concierge lounge for our one and only free breakfast of the trip. We had yogurt, bagels, danish, croissants and the like as well as coffee (for me) and cokes for everyone else. Yes, I let my kids have cokes in the morning-jeez ya gotta get your caffine any way you can, especially at Disney World! Then we pack up the car(no big deal cuz we only had 2 bags) and head down to the car to drive over to the MK parking lot which takes like 2 minutes tops! The we go to our first ride of the day---- The Monorail! :woohoo: We are such geeks. We consider the monorail a ride. Soon after entering our monorail car I hear someone yelling out my name. First and last so I know they actually know me (not one of my DIS friends cuz they woulda said CK or Crazy Kanga or Laura) but NO! First and Last! So I am lookin' around and low and behold there is a girl I went to high school with who also has a kid at my school, who also was my surgical nurse for my hysterectomy! Small World huh! SO, there ya go. You never know who you'll see on the monorail! - Just Sayin!( That was for you DM!)
Anywho, we chat for a few minutes then say our goodbyes and part ways as we head over to the Guest services window for our GAC. This is the Guest Assistance Card for Nick (my autistic son) For those of you not in the know about the GAC, it is a special card for kids or adults with invisible disabilities. I try not to use it too much but it helps get us through the day without too many meltdowns. As he has gotten older, he has needed it less and less. Basically it allows us to use fastpass entrance whenever possible, which is a huge help. To most people Nick appears "normal", but as you will see later in the TR, MELTDOWNS :scared1: are subject to occur with or without notice!!!!!! OK, consider yourself notified! So we head to Fantasyland first cuz this is Nicks favorite place. It has most of his faves including the rides we did in this order...PP, IASW, Pooh, ..Ok, I really don't remember, but anywho it was most of Fantasyland! Then on to Mickey's Toon Town Fair where we did Barnstormer 2 times in a row without having to get off! Flippin' Sweet!(ZZUB that was for you since we haven't had a ND reference in a while). Anywho after chatting online with babes for a while ;) , we went over to Tomorrowland for some "Buzz Likeyear" and "Puppies of Progress" and then on to Space Mountain and Astro Orbiter and of course the ultimate ride in Tomorrowland, TTA!!!!!! Paging Mr. Tom Morrow! Dang, I just CAN"T get enough of that crap! :lmao: Then we decided it was time for lunch. Nick wanted Pinnochios, and Luke wanted to go see Sonny Eclipse, so we split up to keep everyone happy.:) Then met back up and went to Mickey's Philharmagic which is always too cool!:cool2: I just love that "Be Our Guest" Pie smell!:love:
Tune in tomorrow(paging Mr. Tom Morrow:rotfl: ) when I finish the first half of day 1!
LYMI!:love:
 
THese names are hilarious. :lmao:

Hey you going to cross up to TN next weekend? Best shopping weekend of all year.
 
CK:

Well, it's about time!! :hourglass

It does sound like you guys had a perfect MK morning, so I suppose it was worth the wait!

(But, try not to keep us waiting) Pretty please!!

I, for one, will never slam anyone in Disney World for what they give their kids for breakfast. I am so not a breakfast person. I like early lunches!

Okay. I join the geek club because we consider the airport monorail our first ride! ;) And last ride :sad1:

You never know who you'll see on the monorail! - Just Sayin!( That was for you DM!)
And you never know who will be yelling your name from behind you at, say, the Animal Kingdom...just saying :rolleyes1

To most people Nick appears "normal", but as you will see later in the TR, MELTDOWNS :scared1: are subject to occur with or without notice!!!!!! OK, consider yourself notified!
Your boys were so well behaved when I met them. Of course, I think mine were too. Are you able to use the GAC on Expedition Everest? I'm assuming you can and that's why y'all ditched us so quick. Oops! That's later on in your TR...probably much much later on....:rolleyes:

Nick wanted Pinnochios, and Luke wanted to go see Sonny Eclipse, so we split up to keep everyone happy.:)
So which one did you go to?

Tune in tomorrow(paging Mr. Tom Morrow:rotfl: ) when I finish the first half of day 1!
LYMI!:love:
Sure, sure...if I had a penny for everytime you said that. I'd have like almost 10 cents!

Hi. The library looks great. I have been so busy, I don't have time to DIS anymore. We have to eat and head out to ball practice in this 103 degree heat!:headache:
