Over all it was great, cant complain, I was at Disney right, Well.... Saturday POP didn't have our rooms ready till AFTER 3PM, we arrived at about 11am. I guess not prepared with a proper change of clothes. We had two small children with us and they were exhausted by the time we were able to get into our rooms. Needless to say, didn't do a park that day.
Sunday was good, went to MGM, had lots of fun.
Sunday night, here comes the hurricane.. OH BOY.. NO big deal though, cause the next day on Monday they open up the parks at 1pm. Went to MK had fun, no lines for attractions, the sun was shining.
Left MK kind of early, had a PS at 'Ohanas 7pm that night. This was GREAT!! Except they took the shrimp wantons off of the menu. KIDS loved all the games they played, I was fun.
KEEP IN MIND, THE TEMP> DROPPED, ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT, FREEZING, as low as 49 degrees maybe lower?? Im not prepared with proper attire. Just wore the same MM sweat jacket EVERYday..
Tuesday, back to MK, had PS CRT 8:50 am. This day was also a lot of fun. LOVE MK, my fav park!
Wednesday, EPCOT.. oh here it comes.. The mental breakdown happens this day (we had 13 people in our group includes 2 teens, 2 small children 5 and 2) The 2 year old doesn't want to leave his parents, so its always an ordeal when they want to ride rides and he cant because he is too small. I start feeling really worn down, I dont know why? I think, maybe its all the stress, people starting to argue a little bit. As everyone calms down and starts to work their way around WS, Im getting worse and worse. At this point I have to leave and go back to the resort to rest. Its around 6:30 by this time. Get back to the room, and I sleep from 700 all the way through to the next morning. When I wake up on Thursday, I know something was seriously wrong with me. My throat is swollen, my head hurts, can barely stand. My Mom starts to freak and calls the front desk to see about a doctor.
Yes, I went to see a doctor and found out I had strep throat. SO MAD!! and SO SICK! If anyone ever needs a doctor while at WDW they come and pick you up with a shuttle and will take you to Wallgreens to get your prescription.
So, I end up missing that whole day at the AK, I slept ALL day on Thursday then forced myself to go to MNSSHP that night. I lasted there about 2 hours, before I had to go back to the room again.
By Friday I was pretty much fully functional, except I couldn't swallow without being in pain. Im still hurting even now when I try to swallow. Friday was good, went back to MGM, did some rides and some shopping. Went to DTDFriday night, tried to catch up on more shopping.
Saturday we left by 1pm , flight left at 3pm.. Arrived home in a timely manner.
I have some pics I will post, once I figure out how?? I did meet up with a DIS couple one day at the MK. I will post the picture, eventually. They were really nice.
PS--- I LOVED SOARIN!!! I wish I could have rode it again. That was my really sick day. Oh well, next time
Besides missing out on a few days at the parks and a few attractions like (SPLASH) didnt ride it on Monday or Tuesday, thought I would wait till MNSSHP with no lines. Did not plan on being sick. I decided to skip it this trip because of the way I was feeling.
Overall had a great trip... I cant wait to go back. I want to start planning soon!!

I knew what the weather was going to be like,, I think it felt colder to me because I was sick.
This is the kicker, it was expensive! Even if you have health insurance they do not except it, you have to pay then get reimbursed later. My appointment was $203.00 plus my prescription was $19.99 (Not too bad, lucky for me, the medicine was the cheap part)The cost to see the doctor was about $138.00 and they gave me a test for step throat and I guess that's why it was $203.00.I had to pay for the test. 
Wasn't planning on spending $200+ on being sick. Would rather have spent money on something else!! Oh well, nothing I can do about it now.
