"This Isn't Disneyworld. . .It's Rainworld!!" our trip to WDW May 16-23, 2009

[ladybugmom]

Another wonderful update, Becky! I am so excited you all got to meet the fairies!!! The pictures with Tink are just too cute! So are the pictures with Mickey and Minnie! How wonderful that the girls got along so well, but how sad they are when you had to split up! I am so glad the rain held off for you, and you were able to enjoy the Magic Kingdom for awhile!

Thank you Jackie!! Ally and Claire LOVED meeting the fairies and I'm glad we took the time to wait it that line! It was soooo worth it!! Yes, the rain held off so far that day--it was great!!

As always, your girls are just precious and I love their outfits!

Great to see pics of the Fairies. That is #1 on our list in Sept as my daughter is obsessed with Tinkerbell and the Fairies. It was under construction when we were there last year so she is READY!!

I can't believe it! It's like mid-afternoon already on this day and I haven't heard about any rain!!! YAY!! You (as I always say) have some of the best pictures! You all are just the happiest looking bunch! It's fabulous! It sounds like a great day so far! Can't wait to hear about Thunder (I'm assuming that's what you are referring to...)

I agree Fawn is pretty, too! The pics of Tink and Claire are priceless...I love the family photos outside the castle...we did that exact spot back in 2001; need to be sure to hit that spot next year when we return.

Love the update ! The PP pictures in front of the park are great , I wish we would have stopped here for some now , never even thought about it . That's awesome that you had a dis meet ! The girl's seemed like they made very good friends with each other in such a short amount of time , I could see why it was such a sadgood bye for them . Beautiful PP pictures with the Fairies and in the Judge's Tent ! Story time with Belle looks like it was a lot of fun , we somehow have missed this in the 4 years we have gone , after seeing your report I'm gonna have to put it on the must do list for next time though ! Can't wait for the next update , I hope the rain holds off .

Thank you! Isn't that the BEST PP spot?! I love how no one is directly behind you in that spot.

Thank you!! Yes, it was so much fun meeting up with another DISer!! I was able to meet a total of 5 DISers this trip! Oh--you MUST see Storytime With Belle!! I could see it again and again, it was that good!!

Oh great update I love the pictures. I am very glad you had a few hours with out rain. Story Time with Belle looks very interesting I must do in my next trip.

Thank you Lizet!! Yes, you really need to do Storytime With Belle! It was excellent!

I love the pics in front of the castle on the way to Tomorrowland - that is such a great backdrop because you don't have all the extra people roaming around the perimeters of you photo like you do when you stand in front of the castle on Main Street or the hub.

I really wanted the girls to meet the fairies when we were there, but they (and me, although I would have done it) just didn't want to stand in the line. The first time we went it was 45 minutes - I should have jumped on that, but I figured we could try again another day maybe first thing when they opened. NOpe! At 10:05 the wait was already an hour long. I guess they must let people queue up somewhere before they open? Or maybe there is just a huge group of people waiting at the Toontown rope drop and they make a mad stroller dash for the tent.

What a wonderful day for all of you so far! Mickey & Minnie, lots of fairies, meeing up with friends, and NO RAIN! So sweet that the girls like each other so much.

I wanted to comment how cute I think it is that Claire has her own autograph book. I don't think Dylan would be into that at all at this age, but I'm sure it's because she sees big sis with hers.

 

[tmkinney]

Great pics! Love the pics of the girls with the fairies, looks like they did take a lot of time with them. The pics of them hugging Claire are too sweet! Congrats on the new van!

Thank you!! Exactly!! That is the reason I LOVE that spot--not a bunch of people behind you that create distraction in the picture. I'm not sure but I've heard that they often drop the rope early at Toontown! We missed the rope drop the day we were there. Hopefully after all the newness has worn off, the wait will decrease. I've heard that the fairy line has made waiting for the princesses much less of a wait!

Yes, it WAS a great day!! Aww! Thanks!! Yes, Claire wants to do EVERYTHING that Ally does! She thinks she's big stuff!!

Thank you! They really did spend a lot of time with the girls--we didn't feel rushed at all. That's probably why there is such a long wait to see the fairies.

Yeah--I thought it was time for an update!! I had to play with it awhile before everything fit right. Try making the font smaller on your wording.

Love the update! On both of our trips this year, we never made it to the Judges Tent. I guess there's always next time! In Jan, we did meet the Fairies. We were at Toontown around 9:40am, so when they let us in at 10, we were probably around the 10th family to see the Fairies. We saw Iridessa, Tink and Silvermist. Maddie and I LOVE Tink, so we were very excited to meet her. I too love the pics off to the side of the Castle. Those are always my favorite pictures from our trips.

Morning Becky!

What a great update and yay for meeting up with a friend from DIS! This was my favorite update picture wise, you got some really great ones!!!! Love all the fairy ones (since I never get to see them!!) and the Mickey and Minnie ones were adorable! The family pics in front of the castle are just too cute, too!! Ally was totally hamming it up, love it! Looks like a great day so far and no rain yet, too!! WOW...how nice for you!! Can't wait to hear/see more!!

Btw, love your new siggie, was it hard to do?!

 

[AGPrincess]

Great updates -- Sounds like a really fun MK day! I love Ally's sunglasses too, very fabulous (and cute!)
