The Pursuit of Disney Magic (June 7-14, 2008) ~ UPDATED 9/30 pg. 191

[Charleston Princess]

We are here to make re-entry easier on you.

I'm telling you -- having you guys makes all the difference in the world. I moped so much when I got back last summer, but this summer I get to look forward to all of your vacations that are coming up!

Awww. It's a nice feeling being able to chat to the gals!

As you know we have returned safe and sound from Walt Disney World. We had a blast and can't wait to head back -- as evidenced by the fact that I already made a new ticker. As soon as those 2009 packages come out in August, we will start planning in earnest.

So, for now, we will live on our memories...with the help of nine rolls of film that need to be developed tomorrow morning. I know, I know -- I should really enter the digital age in earnest.

In preparation of the grand unveiling of the Trip Report, I will give you a few teases:

Did we join the Sith or the Alliance?

What ADRs did we change at the last minute?

What drinks did we consume while at the World?

Who was the biggest ride chicken?

Did I get to see any of my nighttime shows or was I thwarted again?

Who pitched the biggest fit while we were there?

Which was hotter last week: Hades or Florida?

And last but not least...

What was the most magical moment of our 8 days there????

So glad to see you got back in one piece! I was so bummed that we didn't bump into each other, but I can't wait to read all about your adventures along the way!!! So sad to be back myself tonight! BOO--let's go back!!! I'm starting our TR tomorrow too, so it will be fun to follow along with one another's since we were there together! Talk to you soon! Jen

Hey, CP!

In my internet travels this morning, I ran into this guy...

he was looking for you.

Wanted to let you know that as soon as he's done with all his travails, he's heading your way.

Now, if that doesn't help with post-Disney blues, I'm not sure what will!

 

[julezdisney]

Oooh.... I'm so excited for your first installment. You'd better make it last though..... we've got a whole month-1/2 before you get to start planning the next trip.

Thank you! Hopefully, today will be the first installment.

Jen,

Welcome home -- let's go back right now -- how did the week go so fast??? Wish we had run into each other -- we need to go back and try again!

V-E-R-Y N-I-C-E to see Indy first thing in the morning!

Oooh.... I'm so excited for your first installment. You'd better make it last though..... we've got a whole month-1/2 before you get to start planning the next trip.

I am going to draw it out as long as possible so that it will last a while -- I know as soon as I finish I will want to start another one!

 

[MeMom]

Which was hotter last week: Hades or Florida?

And last but not least...

What was the most magical moment of our 8 days there????

From all reports from people who have just come back, I'd say they were neck in neck. That's what everyone has been saying - how HOT it was! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a cool snap to start in.... let's say about 13 days!!!

We're ready for the heat, though, and ready for the crowds. We're just ready to be out of real life and immersed in the magic once again! I look forward to hearing all about your trip.

 

[MRYPPNS]

I still can't get over the fact that you are still using film. Do you have them put the pictures on cd so you don't have to scan them for the TR?

 

[MomofCKJ]

Waiting patiently for you!

We bought the Indiana Jones Wii game last week. Goofy and I have been really having fun with it!

Allyson

 

[Lady Lallie]

Promise me that you will start your TR before I leave? Pretty please, with Indy on top?

 

[Sarilas]

Jackie, long time viewer, first time poster.

I enjoyed reading all 105 pages of your PTR and can't wait for your actual TR! Your organization boggles the mind and makes me insanely jealous! I hope I can get through the next 6 months as well as you did!

 

[MouseEarsForLife]

Hiya again! Great teaser
I didn't think the heat was that bad- believe it or not... but I've been in July before where if you don't duck into shops every few minutes- you'll fry.
Curious to hear about ADRs and nighttime shows! We surprisingly made all of ours!

 

[MouseEarsForLife]

Welcome back to you, too! Did you have a blast?

And yes, we had a complete blast! So much fun, and actually (Aside from waking early in the summer) really relaxing. We had tons of downtime and only a few Morning-night in the parks. (And that was mainly Magic Kingdom) Crowds were so-so. Not terrible if you ask me, but then again, I've seen July and holiday crowds. Can't wait to read the rest of your report!

 

[Princesskeyblade]

How did I not subscribe to this before???

I am glad to hear that you are back and I am going to read through the thread and catch up!

I can't wait to hear all about your trip!!!

 

[camelotcats]

Ha ha!! I am here!!!

Are you going to do the TR here, or make a new thread??

 

[Tinkerbellarella]

Who pitched the biggest fit while we were there?

That's easy. Me. Because I was NOT in Disney World.

Which was hotter last week: Hades or Florida?

Trick question. The answer is neither. At least last Monday. When it was 103 degrees where I was.

I'm selfishly glad you're back and yet selflessly I wish you were still there.

Can't wait for the pics!

Just loved reading about your trip plans. My husband and I both teach and love Disney. I seem to be the one who comes home depressed and unable to connect with the real world though. We just got back on the 6th of June. I drove him crazy so we are going back July 14 for a week without children. I can't wait to read how your trip went!
