The "why do we keep trying to cram all this stuff into one trip?" report!

That's so cool that you can speak Japanese. My oldest wants to go to Japan and learn the language. Did you live there or go to visit? I really enjoy watching the drummers at the Japan pavillion.:lovestruc
 
You really got some great pics! Japan is my favorite but I agree that the China pavillion is beautiful!
 

What great updates! It sounds like you had a great time in WS and some great food! A yummy cannoli and good looking Italian guy!! Sounds like agood trip to me!! Your pictures are beautuful and you and your mom look so much alike! Can't wait to read more!

I wish I lived there! I just visited. I took Japanese all through high school and now I just maintain it on my own. My dad was doing some business over there and he needed my language skills :rotfl: It was a good thing he brought me too otherwise he'd have never gotten anywhere! It's such a wonderful place but it's so expensive :eek: I love Taiko drummers. I used to go to concerts a lot when I lived in Houston because they had an sectio in downtown that was sort of like Chinatown. Really awesome stuff! Thanks for reading!

Thanks! If I was going to get married at Epcot it would be hard for me to choose because that place is so pretty but my Chinese is lousy :laughing:

This is just an awesome report!!! I'm lovin it!:thumbsup2

Thanks for reading. I'm glad you're enjoying it! :goodvibes

Thanks so much :) We did have a great time. There is nothing better than a good looking Italian guy handing me a tasty cannoli :rotfl:


I'll try and have another update up today! :thumbsup2
 
After dinner we headed over to Test Track. I saw this in the UK pavilion. It was so precious

Next time we want to have dinner at Le Cellier

Sorry about the darkness, the camera sucks at night.

IMG_0381.jpg


It's a good thing we had fastpasses. The wait is always so long for this ride
IMG_0382.jpg


I like the ride but I would seriously not want to wait more than 20 minutes for it! Then we headed over to the Seas with Nemo and friends. There was no one there! It was kind of spooky :laughing:

After the ride we looked around at the cool fishies.

Here's me with Chum!
IMG_0408.jpg


And Anchor <3
IMG_0409.jpg


This is my worst nightmare :eek:
IMG_0411.jpg
 
After looking like a dork posing for all those pictures we decided to head home cause we were pretty tired. We had arrived that morning after all at 2 AM. We walked out to see the end of illuminations. After a quick shower I fell into bed :)

The next morning was MGM (HS, whatever!) Here I am, ready to go!

We made it there for rope drop! It was still raining pretty heavily but we had our ponchos and umbrella.
This gate is so awesome
IMG_0416.jpg


After we got in we headed straight towards the Tower of Terror!
IMG_0418.jpg


Mom ran over to get some fast passes. I took a picture of the rain :)
IMG_0420.jpg


Here she comes! Don't these ponchos look stylish?
IMG_0421.jpg


Approaching ToT
IMG_0422.jpg


IMG_0423.jpg


IMG_0425.jpg


IMG_0426.jpg


I took this picture because that red machine is from one of my favorite Twilight Zone episodes. It's my favorite t.v. show so I always try to look for stuff in the ride from the show
IMG_0427.jpg


And yes I have the spiel memorized :rotfl:

The creepy boiler room
IMG_0429.jpg


They all disappeared!
IMG_0430.jpg


After the awesome ride we headed over to RnR
IMG_0419.jpg


IMG_0431.jpg


This rollercoaster makes me dizzy but I love it! Then it was over to the Great Movie Ride. I looove this ride. Movies are my thing
IMG_0437.jpg


IMG_0436.jpg


IMG_0434.jpg


The inside is so cool
IMG_0438.jpg


IMG_0439.jpg


IMG_0440.jpg


IMG_0443.jpg


After that we were kind of hungry because we didn't have time for breakfast. So we shared a huge cinnamon role. Yum!
IMG_0445.jpg
 
We still had some time before our lunch reservations so we went over to One Man's Dream because neither of us had done it before. It was awesome! I can't believe I had never seen it before
IMG_0471.jpg


These miniatures are so cool. I want one for my room!
IMG_0448.jpg


IMG_0449.jpg


IMG_0450.jpg



IMG_0454.jpg


I got excited when I saw this one cause i've been there in real life
IMG_0455.jpg


IMG_0457.jpg


IMG_0458.jpg


I loved this waterpark as a kid
IMG_0459.jpg


IMG_0463.jpg


IMG_0464.jpg


My favorite video game :lovestruc
IMG_0460.jpg




IMG_0451.jpg


One of my favorite movies
IMG_0452.jpg

We wandered around a bit more
IMG_0474.jpg


We didn't go on Toy Story Mania but the decorations are so awesome
IMG_0476.jpg



IMG_0477.jpg


This is one of the times when I got a little teary. We went by the Honey I Shrunk the Kids playground. I have video tape of me when I was 5 years old running around here. It was so weird to be back
IMG_0478.jpg


IMG_0479.jpg


IMG_0481.jpg


I loved this slide as a kid
IMG_0483.jpg


Then we wandered some more aimlessly
IMG_0484.jpg


I've never seen the lights all lit up in person but I knew that everything was set up for the Osbourne Lights
IMG_0485.jpg


This phone booth cracked me up
IMG_0486.jpg


IMG_0487.jpg


I know some people think it's creepy to take pictures of other people but I really just wanted Mater!
IMG_0489.jpg


The Muppets decorations were so cool. I don't remember these at all!
IMG_0490.jpg


This Christmas shop was awesome.
IMG_0492.jpg


IMG_0493.jpg


The one on the left is mine :rotfl:
IMG_0495.jpg


I thought it was cute they had these!
IMG_0496.jpg


It's so cool that you can personalize any of these
IMG_0497.jpg


Pizza Planet!
IMG_0498.jpg


IMG_0499.jpg


IMG_0500.jpg
 
Then it was over to the Star Wars territory! I blame my father for making me love Star Wars!
IMG_0501.jpg


IMG_0502.jpg


IMG_0503.jpg


IMG_0504.jpg


IMG_0506.jpg


IMG_0507.jpg


There was only a handful of us on the ride
IMG_0510.jpg


Okay this is really embarassing haha. I just wanted a picture on this but there was a photopass guy and a crowd of people that pressured me into holding the light saber! I was trying to look serious! But I just ended up looking really stupid :rotfl2:
IMG_0511.jpg


Then we went to the Animation show, thing (sorry I can't remember what it's called) :rotfl:
IMG_0512.jpg


Mom's favorite
IMG_0513.jpg


Then it was time for our lunch reservations!
IMG_0446.jpg
 
IMG_0447.jpg


The Brown Derby is a tradition for us. I love old movies and the atmosphere here is great :)
IMG_0514.jpg


Our waiter was really friendly. He was from Mexico city and we spent some time talking about how much we loved Mexico. He brought us some really warm, tasty rolls. Sorry if the pics were blurry, I tried to avoid using the flash so I wouldn't annoy other people eating
IMG_0515.jpg


I wasn't feeling that hungry for some reason. I think it might have been the humidity. We split the coconut shrimp appetizer
IMG_0518.jpg


They were really tasty but I wouldn't pay eight dollars for two shrimp again! I got the lobster bisque
IMG_0516.jpg


It was nice and creamy. It could have used just a little bit of salt but it was still good. Mom had the cobb salad
IMG_0519.jpg


She liked it but said it was really salty. Maybe they accidentally put my salt on her salad :laughing: Afterwards mom wanted something sweet like a milkshake. I'd heard about the peanut butter and jelly milkshakes at 50's Primetime so we headed over there.
IMG_0520.jpg


IMG_0522.jpg


IMG_0523.jpg


I loved the theme! I walked in and was like "...mom, this looks like your dad's house!" We sat at the bar.
IMG_0524.jpg


IMG_0525.jpg


IMG_0526.jpg


I kept trying to take a picture of us with our milkshake but I couldn't get it just right! We were cracking up by my tenth attempt but I finally got it! Here we are with our milkshake!
IMG_0531.jpg


The milkshake was really good but quite expensive. I'm glad we only split one. With tip it was about ten dollars. Then we had pretty much seen everything we wanted to so we headed off to Downtown Disney!
IMG_0534.jpg


We went into the T-Rex restaraunt to get some pictures. This restaraunt is AWESOME. I don't really see any kind of food there that would wow me but I would definately eat here just for the atmosphere!
IMG_0533.jpg


IMG_0535.jpg


Image3.jpg


IMG_0537.jpg


Then we got my sister some Wall-E toys :rotfl:
IMG_0538.jpg


And my mom got some more stuff for my sister in the Christmas shop. This shop has everything!
IMG_0539.jpg


And of course, we had to go into Goofy's candy shop.
IMG_0541.jpg


I was so excited to get my own candy made!
IMG_0540.jpg


I'm stupid and forgot to take pictures but my mom got a gingerbread man dipped in white chocolate with oreo crumbs. It tasted like cookies and cream! And I got the three pretzel rods dipped in dark chocolate, one with butterfinger, one with reeses, and one with caramel. I thought I was going to go into a coma they were so good! We ate them on the plane ride home. Then we were tired and wanted to rest a bit before dinner that night so it was back to the room!
 
I can't believe you missed Toy Story Mania. Let me tell you--it's worth being there at rope drop.

Love your pictures!
 
More great updates and great pictures!!! You didn't do TSM?!?! Say what?!

I don't think you look stupid on the speeder! I don't remeber seeing that last trip! I have to get a pic of DS6 on it! He's a HUGE Star Wars fan!
 
amazing tr so far hun!

i'm SO looking forward to reading more!!!
this makes me want to do one about my cp experience

I'm glad you're enjoying it :) I tried to look serious but it's pretty laughable :rotfl: I was the only one over eight who was waiting in line for a picture AND the only female.

Jacki! I'm glad you're reading :) If I don't get in I have to live through your CP experience!
 
YOU'RE GETTING IN!!!!!!!! haha. so don't even think about living through me.

Haha i'm so confused about the whole situation that I can't even speculate what happened with my application. My recruiter said I should hear by next week. Otherwise i'm flying to Florida to personally have them tell me whether or not I got it! :rotfl:

:rotfl: Isn't that what Disney's about for a grownup?! Being a kids again! I think DD7 may take a turn on the speeder, you may even get gander at me on it too! DS6 thinks is soooo cool that Mommy likes Star Wars.
 
I will also say "What, you didn't do TSM?" But hopefully you'll get in the CP and get many more chances to go on it.

And what's wrong with liking Star Wars?
