I know I shouldn't be laughing, but the ECV story cracked me up....that's something my mother would say to Jasmine about listening Isn't it funny how it's never their fault....poor grandma!

Your pictures are great!! The bride ones are my favorite, she kinda creeps me out! My niece who was 4 last summer when we were there went on with Jasmine and I and it doesn't bother her a bit....I wouldn't go on it by myself in January, I made Jas, Aladdin and I all squish into one doom buggy

 

[PiperGirlInWondrland]

What a fun update, I am loving your report! Haunted Mansion is one of my favorite rides, great pics! And boy does that carrot cake look good right about now! yum!

 

[Jupiter&Wolfe]

Ahahahahha that was one of the best updates yet! I loved your Haunted Mansion pics and the looks of those baked goods, gets me so excited!

The shooting gallery looks fun. I'm the master of those whenever we go to the carnival, maybe I should try it out. I remember passing it on my first trip to the World, but thinking nothing of it and moving on. I should know better that Disney wouldn't have just any ol' shooting gallery!

Back-to-back-to-back-to-back updates?
Someone's on a roll!

Nice pics and sounds like a fun day!
But was Grandma really pushing the ECV up that hill!?!?!?
I know it's mean but that had to be a hilarious sight!

 

[yinyanggirls]

I love Pirates. It's fun to notice new details each time.

We went in the exit for Haunted Mansion, so I'm kind of sad I missed the death certificate and pet cemetery.

Well, it was an appropriate place for the ECV to DIE!!!!

A lot of our readers were anxious to hear the story of the ECV so I had a lot of morning and pictures to get through till I got there

She was pushing it down the hill. It was funny for a second until it clicked in our minds what was happening and we ran to help so she wouldn't hurt herself or anybody else!

I usually just notice new sayings

The death certificate part is at the end with the mini bride. She tells everyone to come back and to not forgot your death certificates. The pet cemetary is right at the end of the ride so you must have walked past it just something new for you to check out next time!

That is true maybe we will see a ghost riding a ghost ECV the next time we ride HM

It's funny looking back on it I was just shocked and I had read through the directions and didn't see anything about turning on the switch

Thank you! HM can be a bit creepy!

What a fun update, I am loving your report! Haunted Mansion is one of my favorite rides, great pics! And boy does that carrot cake look good right about now! yum!

Thank you! I could go for that carrot cake as well it was sooo good!

Thank you!

The Main Street Bakery has tons of good sweets!

You should definitely try it out! My parents and I always walked past it up until or last family trip last May and now it is a must do!

 

[LilAnn]

ooh, those were some fun updates. Love all the pictures too! Everytime I read someone else's TR, I realize how much I have missed out on at Disney. There is just so much stuff to do! I need to try that shooting gallery out one day.

That Ohana breakfast looks so good! We've only ever done dinner there because we love the bread pudding there. But that bread basket looks delicious at breakfast!

Love all the pics of the attractions. I love the HM too, unfortunately we didn't get to go on that this time around. Your pics make me want to go visit Disney when it's cooler out and we won't be sweating!

 

[MyMuse]

all caught up!

those pic of the inside of haunted mansion were awesome!!!!! holy buckets!

I haven't tried space mtn in quite some time and I'm not sure whether I can. Tho, I definitely have to find the shooting gallery and do that!

So sorry about the ECV! I'm glad it wasn't something worse tho.

When she plugged it in to charge she forgot to turn on the main power pack She then turned to me and said "Caitlin why didn't you tell me? You were there when the man was explaining how to use the ECV."

Next up! Photo Shoot at POP!

Oh NO she didn't!!!!!!! Are You Kidding me?????? She forgot to charge the battery pack, but YOU were supposed to know that. Oh Caitlin - could you have died when she said that????? (That is something that my DH Denny would say).

I have to tell you that you took EXCELLENT ride pictures. You got great pictures of the queue and BTM. Also - excellent HM pictures. I really neglectecd the queue and rides this trip because I was so afraid of mishandling my camera in the dark / while moving, ect. I LOVE the HM pictures.

I am going back to look at all of them, but I am still over grandma and the battery pack! So flippin funny!

 

[WrightFamily06]

Great ride pictures Your dark ride pictures turned out so well , what's your secret ??

the Patriotic Mickey flag , will have to check it out in September , it would look very nice on my flag pole lol

Poor Grandma know one even noticed she was missing Then you find her pushing her transportation That darn ECV and how dare u not tell her the proper instructions to work it ! lol

Those funnel cakes are soo yummy , I must have one every trip if not two !

 

[GoofyWife]

love your trip report! taking notes for my mother/daughter trip next March (or May depending on when DD wants to go); your pictures are beautiful! and I love how your grandma innocently (or not so innocently) slides the blame for the ECV problems onto you! very smooth grandma! keep the updates coming!

 

[praisehisname]

Great updates!

Now this next picture my mom is extremely proud of!

How did you get that picture to turn out so good? Did you sneak a flash picture???

We start looking around and see grandma pushing the dead ECV down the ramp that connects the castle to Sleepy Hollow

No picture??? Poor Grandma! How frustrating for that to happen! (But really, no picture? )

 

[jordanyosh]

I love your artistic shots of different buildings....

 

[MarieTheCat24]

I love your ride pictures. They all turned out so well. I'm especially fond of the Big Thunder Mountain pics as that is my FAVORITE ride in WDW.

I'm also really excited to try the updated Space Mountain. I really missed it when it was closed last summer. The new queue looks really cool.

Pushing Grandma's dead ECV through the parks must have been terrible. Those things look heavy. But it does make for a great story!

That's why I love going to Disney! Every time you go you can experience something new!

The bread basket was good! I also enjoyed the character interactions and I am sure your DD would enjoy seeing the characters as well!

It is nicer when it's cooler out just because you don't have to have a break every day but you do miss out on fun things like Splash Mountain.

all caught up!

those pic of the inside of haunted mansion were awesome!!!!! holy buckets!

I haven't tried space mtn in quite some time and I'm not sure whether I can. Tho, I definitely have to find the shooting gallery and do that!

Thank you! I am very proud of those pictures!

Space Mountain is a little bit bad and Idk if I would recommend it. The turns and the motion of the coaster is amplified due to the darkness so it might turn your stomach a bit.

True things could have been worse!

Oh NO she didn't!!!!!!! Are You Kidding me?????? She forgot to charge the battery pack, but YOU were supposed to know that. Oh Caitlin - could you have died when she said that????? (That is something that my DH Denny would say).

I am going back to look at all of them, but I am still over grandma and the battery pack! So flippin funny!

I was very embarassed and felt extremely bad!

Thank you for the compliments on my HM pics! I was very proud of them and thought of you while I was taking the bride pics!

Yeah it was pretty funny looking back on it!

Great ride pictures Your dark ride pictures turned out so well , what's your secret ??

Those funnel cakes are soo yummy , I must have one every trip if not two !

Idk I was extremely lucky I used Photobucket to edit them though so some of them turned out better because of that.

I know shame on me!

I will have to have a funnel cake this summer I have never had one!

love your trip report! taking notes for my mother/daughter trip next March (or May depending on when DD wants to go); your pictures are beautiful! and I love how your grandma innocently (or not so innocently) slides the blame for the ECV problems onto you! very smooth grandma! keep the updates coming!

I hope we can help you plan your trip! If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask!

Thank you!

Yeah she is something else

Great updates!




How did you get that picture to turn out so good? Did you sneak a flash picture???




No picture??? Poor Grandma! How frustrating for that to happen! (But really, no picture? )

Yes my mom did take a flash picture but in her defense we were backed up waiting for people to exit the boats.

I know we should have gotten a picture what was I thinking?!

I love your artistic shots of different buildings....

Jordan!! So good to see a comment from you Thank you for the compliment! I hope you and your family are doing well!

It is so cool! I am a huge fan of SM now!

It was heavy and hard to steer! True and when you're writing TRs you need good stories!

I have to tell you Mary Ellen that I took the BTMRR pics while we were riding and the whole time I kept thinking "if Dale could see this he'd have fit"

 

[ellajeansmom]

That was a lot of great pictures What a fun morning (we enjoy breakfast with Lilo & Stitch too!), that is until the ecv breakdown. Oh man, I can't imagine how heavy and akward it must have been to push it

Dare I ask if the ecv issues are now behind you? Apart from little issues like speed control and steering that is

I think we have some trouble ahead but they include the speed control and steering issues

Happy Memorial Day Weekend Dawn, Dale & Caitlin !!!

 

[wdwgirl03]

Love the updates! I haven't done the shooting arcade in a looong time. I think the only reason we ever did it was because there was one of those typical spring Florida thunderstorms. haha
