THANK YOU!!! I did join.. Didn't have time to play with it yet!
I love the snowy shoreline. Where did you take these pictures?
Cal Park. its a beach near my house
But sure to check out Monroe Harbor when you are shooting pictures. I walked there yesterday from the office and there was still ice in the harbor. If it hasn't melted in two days then it should look pretty cool.
I haven't had the time to drive up north! I am SO READY FOR WARM!
So exciting! We probably won't be getting back to DW for a couple of years but when we do it will be interesting to see where we stay. Doug and I are fine at Pop although someday I would LOVE to try Poly. But Abi wants to go back to Pop and Maddy really wants to go to Art of Animation!
So fun.
What to do what to do! if i have a vote in YOUR trip i would vote Poly.. since you've never been! Or since the girls are still small you can do AoA Then go over to Poly!!!
I think you made a good choice with your week. I think it was more crowded on our trip because of free dining but the second week we were there (the week you are going) was definitely a LOT less crowded than the week before.
you had coats on.. I don't know about this...
sorry I have no idea how to quote just a section...
If you highlight the sentence it will give you the option of quoting it!
I think maybe????? You might have been there the week before us?
We were only there for 3 nights and two days before a cruise, sept 18-20
Yep we were there the week before! Ohh a cruise.. I am seriously considering this!!!
We did like the cars section quite a lot, we originally had booked Nemo but they were doing some weird unplanned maintenance of the Nemo buildings and we got the dreaded call a couple of weeks before hand that we couldn't stay in Nemo so Cars was actually our second choice...but we liked it. Didn't see any fireworks though from our room but we shut the parks down both days we were there. My poor kids got dragged from dawn to dusk since we only had two park days
I wouldn't have done the same!!!
The rain only got to us on our
MNSSHP night ( didn't get to see the headless horseman lead the parade cuz the route was wet) and then again on the 20th we did DHS early entry and it poured, like get out your Arc and row kind of pour until about 11:00 that day.
That's sad.. But that means you have to go back to witness such an amazing sight! That rain was ridicules!
Great pictures Mo (as you know I voted for your picture in the contest). Have fun with the new camera taking pictures at the Museum with the kids.
Thank you so very much!!! The other contest is weird I cannot figure this thing out. BUT the main Guru dude did pick my picture of the castle in the BLUE contest!!! So that is something right?!?!
Loving your photos, as always!
Have fun this weekend with the family and your new woobie.
Umm YEah... I have a story about this..
Two twirling flower smilies and not one of a camera? Seriously guys,get it together.
WHAT IS THAT ABOUT! The dis better rectify THIS!
My goodness, girl, you take some awesome photos!!! I am always awed by your raw talent! I'll have to get your autograph next time we meet up! You know, so I can say I knew you before you were famous...
Thank you!!! and just stop. I just like taking pictures.. Nothing compared to some out ther.. But do hope to become like them!!! I just don't see using a lot of photoshop.. May as well make a total picture from a computer!
As for the meat loaf at 50's, it came highly recommended by our favorite concierge at French Quarter, but I didn't care for it. Many people rave about it, so maybe I had an off day. Who knows? The pot roast was not particularly fatty any of the times I've had it. That's all I ever get now. However, when pot roast is involved, there is always that chance to get a fatty piece. I would send it back if it was bad. Then stand back for the repercussions!!
Im not a HUGE meatloaf eater.. Unless it's mine. Fried chicken? too greasy.. I don't know. BUT I AM EXCITED to go here!!!
Have you ever eaten at Whispering Canyon? They have a lot of fun there as well. We've eaten there twice and did not get a fun server, but enjoyed the antics of others. Both times were for lunch and maybe it gets rowdier in the evening. But they get all the kids up and romp through the restaurant whooping and hollering. Plus some fun "secret words" that, if you say them, look out! Food was good too!
Are you talking about the word "Ketchup?" We haven't been but i have read some bad reviews on this..
Your posts have a history of causing people to snort various beverages through their nose! There have been many times I was grateful I didn't have anything in my mouth while reading!! Sorry Matt had to experience that at school. Wonder why it started bleeding, though. Does he have a problem with that, or just because he got clocked the other day?
I don't mean too!!! It's just my life. it's chalk full of laughs and adventures!!! it's about to get fun again!!! The weather is finally starting to turn which means a lot of FUN OUTDOORS STUFF TO DO!
Loving your plans for HS for your first day. I have to say I don't know how you drive straight through then hit the parks when you arrive. I would be dead! I guess b/c you are so much younger than I am. Then again, I tend to perk up as soon as I get anywhere near Disney!
Yeah i think it was a cool idea to start where we left off.. If we have a nap before getting close to Disney we both will be fine for a couple more hours.. LIke you said once you hit Disney you perk right up!
Not looking forward to the LONG drive.
Okay, toots, I've got to get to my sewing room. A quick stop over at D~ and Ariana's reports and I'm out of here. Have a great day!
What cha working on?
ETA: I have always wanted to go to the field museum! It sounds fascinating. Hope you'll post some pics….
It is the least favorite Museum around here. but they have Vikings AND VODOO!!! I need pictures of that! promise to write all about it next.
oooohhhh...did not know about this either...Mo, would you pass along the info in an email?
Also, check your email for some info I sent you that may impact some of your planning.
I will send it along! Yes i go the confusing email you sent me.. I do have to call them.. I hear the husband gets a card too?? I will write more in my email to you..
Love the photos and can't wait to see the ones from today!
Me either.
Your family definitely needs to try Whispering Canyon too. That is a must do every trip for us. We normally do it on the evening we do a water park (cause we are hungry and like the all you care to eat skillet and unlimited milkshake refills...yummy creamscicle one!) We aren't doing a water park in May, but we are still doing WCC. The only two of our group that has been there before is me & my sister, so we plan on having a little fun at the others expense.
I don't know.. Like i wrote to Lois.. i read such bad reviews. Fun at other's expense is my middle name didn't you know that? FAOEX <-- middle name.
We have had hit or miss interactions with 50s PT ...funniest was when the boys were younger, and they sent them to the restroom to wash their hands...neither boy paid attention to the soap so they were sent back to do it again.
I do hope we have a fun server!!!! i am ready for it!
I need to get back to updating my PTR...I am a slacker...but it is almost to the end of my "busy season" (Yeah Monday!), so hopefully I will get caught up with things and be a better DISer next week.
HA! I am trying to keep up with work AND the Dis... not working to my benefit! but if someone comes in my office i always look busy! HA HA
Have fun today with the kiddos!
Lynn
More on this in a moment.
How exciting! I loved your last PTR and TR- I can't wait to read this new one as well!
YAY!!! Glad your coming along for another fun filled ride!!! this is going to be a lot of fun!
Those pictures are great. Lake Erie is still mostly ice covered over here. I haven't walked down lately to get a close look.
Thank you! we finally are in some temperatures where everything is melting.. i am very excited!
It sounds like you had an interesting day with Matt. My cousin used to get bloody noses like that. We went to school together and were in the same class in elementary school.
every day is an interesting day with Matt.. this kid is nonstop That's fun you got to go to school with family!!!
You really have to walk around the resort. It is so amazing. We also walked over to POP a couple of times. The resort is my daughter and her husband's favorite resort. I actually like the food at POP better than AOA.
really? What's better at Pop? Oh i plan on walking around this time.. regardless if my legs are going to work with me or against me again i will look around!
We've driven to Disney for all of our trips and gotten to see so much of the South that way. We like side trips.
Liz
I wish we had more time to stop and look around!!! there are so many places i want to go.. most of them would be without kids...
Hooray for Hollywood Studios! This is usually a half-day park for me. I hit exactly 6 things there normally (ToT, RnR, TSM, Great Movie Ride, Muppets, Star Tours). Then I'll also pop back in after my AK day to see Fantasmic. This time though, between the Osborne Lights and doing things I normally wouldn't do but that I think my aunt & uncle will enjoy (Motor Stunt Show, Beauty & the Beast, etc), I'm planning a full day there. Maybe we'll take a midday break because we're old and love our naps.
Then go back that night for dinner and lights and Fantasmic. I'm thinking about trying to catch Characterpalooza also, which will be a first for me!
I LOVE HS. everything about this park screams TAKE A PICTURE OF MEEEEEEEEEEEE... so i plan on doing just that this time around. AK is our half day..
I need to do more shopping this next trip too. I didn't do nearly enough last time, I was so focused on rides. Since my aunt can't ride much (severe motion sickness), I'm going to get to take it a little slower and she and I will be shopping like crazy!
DTD or Disney springs?!? whatever we are calling it now. I will spend a lot more time!!! can't wait to see what you get! it is your birthday trip after all!
You already know about my 50s Prime Time experience
, so I'm going to try out Mama Melrose's for the first time. I've always avoided it due to the fact that it has such mixed reviews. (But then again, so does Coral Reef, which I took a chance on last trip and absolutely loved.) Have you been?
Nope. Haven't been at either one.. A friend of mine's brother is a chef there.. I shoudl probably try it!
Your photography is STUNNING, girl! And what a beautiful area to shoot in! Thank you for sharing with us!
Thank you tons!!!
Yes yes, what Lynn said.....try Whispering Canyon (within the first two days of your trip)....I know someone who is staying there
Or is someone eating there too?
Yes, I agree - Whispering Canyon is a very good place to eat (I've never been there, but...)... The sooner in your trip you do this - the better.
Just Sayin'.
D~
So i take it the two of you will be eating here on my first two days there?!?!
Those pictures you took are beautiful.
Thank you so very much!!! your opinoins mean a lot.. I am always trying to get better these aren't perfect but i am getting better!
Did someone say Mom's Pot Roast at 50s PTC?
OMG LIDDY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOUR BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have missed YOU!!!!!! Look everyone Liddy's here!!!!!
No? Drats... Wishful thinking....
Of for the love of all that's yummy.. this looks amazing.. you have SOLD ME ON POT ROAST! yep. Mine.
50s PTC is probably my FAVORITE restaurant! The shenanigans are so funny! Be sure to know what color the soap is unless you want to be sent to wash up again.
This is my #1 restaurant i am looking most forward too. i cannot wait for the shenanigans to ensue! You know i will try my hardest to be naughty without being obnoxious. Zack maybe my target....
Oh, and I'm totally here and jelly that you, D, and Suzi are going to hant out!
I am really excited about this. about time we get to spend a little Disney time together!!! YAY! don't forget you can ALWAYS come down too!!!
You can come too Liddy!! We'll make room
See we are all on board. you should come too!
Hmmm... Personally - I prefer the fried chicken... but you can't go wrong with the PB&J malt... Mmmmm.... And that fudge brownie.... Yummy - they are all on my list for the next time I eat here. And for those of us who really have a problem - you can belly up to the bar with out an ADR and just order the malt... :whistle: BTDT.
I wish Liddy could join us... I looks like she will be there and gone before we get there. Sigh.
D~
BTDT? Acronyms are a pain in the tookus.
Still the thought of a PB&J malt does NOT sound appetizing. Yet i want to TRY it since you all have this fascination over it..
