wdwgirl and Dad do Disney:an April '10 PTR...TR LINK ADDED!! p. 56

Tower of Terror! Before seeing the pictures I was convinced it was the Haunted Mansion...

Man the time is flying by! Soon you'll be able to use your fingers to count....

Oh, haha, I didn't even think of that! I was just thinking of the whole dropping 13 stories thing.

Only a couple more days until single digits.

Welcome back to the Passholder's Club!

You're getting so close! I know I just went, but I'm still super jealous.

Are you going to be on the computer at all while you're there? Will we get any live updates?

Thanks!

Oh don't worry, that's how I feel too when we get home from a trip.

I think we are going to take the laptop so there could be a few live updates. We will see though!

Really close now. I just love your VB bag, checked out the new colors at the Elm Grove card shop yesterday, the purple color is so pretty. They also added a lot of fun stationary supplies. Congrats on buying the annual pass. You'll have to try to maximize that..........

The purple is really pretty...much darker than I thought it was. I love all the stationery!

I will definitely have to put that AP to good use going in December and then if my sister does the CP next spring...

I really didn't think the crowds were that bad at all! I guess we're used to the summer crowds, so this was nice to us!

OK good because there are some people over on the Theme Parks board who are saying how it was SOO crowded. Some of those people tend to exaggerate though. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

OK, really quick picture update before I head off to school...I thought I'd do another old one for today.

12 days until all things MICKEY MOUSE!!!

This is another picture from our first trip to WDW. You used to get to meet him in his dressing room in Starland. Notice my autograph book too. Good memories.

Sorry for the uniteresting update. Stay tuned for more miscellaneous (mousellaneous?!) plans!

First time riding TOT this trip! Can't wait!

Enjoying the countdown. I was a couple days behind, but I'm all caught up now.

Tower of Terror is my all-time favorite ride at WDW. So much fun!

Love the picture of you and Mickey. Takes me back to my childhood and the days of Mickey's Starland. My first autograph book looked just like that too! Ahh... memories.

TOT is quickly becoming one of my favorites too.

haha, nice! I remember being jealous then on our second trip when my sister (who was only a year or so on our first trip) got her autograph book. I thought it was way cooler than mine.

I have a lot of photos of me in acid-wash jeans with Mickey in his Starland dressing room too.

So I love your 'mouseallaneous' updates!

 

[RachelNinja]

Love the color of your jeans too

Yep, gotta love those shorts...atleast they are not leggings, I have a ton of pictures of me wearing those too.

Love the color of your jeans too

hehe thanks.

Yay, it's Friday already! Only 5 more school days until spring break. Can't wait. There's only 11 more days until we leave now!

So after doing the Tower of Terror as my picture of the day a couple days ago (for 13 days away) I thought it would be cool to try and choose a picture that relates to that number of days. I don't know how well that will work out...I'm not THAT creative but I'll try! So with today being the 11-day mark, any guesses as to what the picture could be?












Only 11 days until World Showcase!!!

As we all know, World Showcase has 11 pavilions so WS is fitting for today's pictures. I am looking forward to doing another one of the Kim Possible missions and then looking for some of the secrets I read about in my Hidden Magic book.


And now for some of those miscellaneous plans, or things I want to do outside of the parks:

Sarah's Miscellaneous Plans
Visit other resorts: monorail resorts (specifically the Polynesian!!!) and maybe Old Key West if we're at Downtown Disney. Never been there so I want to see what it's like!

Stroll the Boardwalk...love the atmosphere there

Get a sundae from Beaches and Cream...when my parents and sister were there in January they got this really good looking sundae. I think it was the No Way Jose but I'm not sure.

Mini golf! Last time we went mini golfing we played at Fantasia Gardens. We haven't been to Winter Summerland in a while so I'd like to play there. Plus you get a free golf ball after your round!

Animal watch at Kidani Village...one of the best parts about staying at the AKL.

Feel free to share your favorite things to do outside of the parks!

 

[lauren_elizabeth]

Don't you love it?!

SO MUCH! It's one of my favorites!

Just be sure you don't order the Mickey Sundae!!!!

On my down time, I love exploring the resort I'm staying at and taking lots of pictures

 

[Mickey_Mom]

Oh I missed your retro pic with Mickey -- too frickin cute and I too love the acid wash jean shorts with the frilled waist band. Weren't they just so cool?

Your first three miscellaneous plans are on my to-do list this time too. Hope we see some FB live updates, getting ready to "Like" everything!

 

[leamom2princesses]

Can't wait to see your pics of AKV Sarah! Love the 11 days out choice. I was telling Joe last night that I really want to slow down and check out the countries in depth this year. We've never done the KP missions so that might be cool to check out too.

 

[MHTeacher]

YAY for 11 days, Sarah!

The kids did a KP mission on this trip---Norway. When we'd been there before, they did Japan. It's a lot of fun. It seemed like the Norway one was harder than I remember the Japan one being. It seemed like it took my girls and nephew a long time to complete it.

 

[DisneyCrafter]

My DH and I love mini-golf, our first date was mini-golfing! We are going to try and use our vouchers for mini-golf at WDW this year! What is the name of the mini-golf course that is closest to the Swan & Dolphin???

 

[lauren_elizabeth]

11 days.. already?!?! Time is flying by and you'll be there before you know it!

I love World Showcase! Mmm, especially walking around enjoying a Grey Goose Slushie!
