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

[Mickey_Mom]

Hopefully they'll get out alright (and hopefully the snow here won't affect them too).

How was the flight home?

Sadly, a trip to Universal for our December trip has been ruled out.... for now. Just too darn expensive but I was really looking forward to it.

 

[wdwgirl03]

I can't wait for that to open....thanks for the link!

No problem!

Oh! I've got the link open now in another window and I can hear the music playing! Going to check it out now! I cannot wait for that to open.....

Me neither. I told my sister the other day that I saw something about them hiring people to work there. She'd love that. haha!

Ohhhhh, their trip home was a NIGHTMARE!!! I don't want to say everything that happened (in case my sister puts it in her trip report...) but let's just say they finally got home 8 hours late. Dad said they're trying to forget about it, it was that ridiculous.

Bummer about not being able to go to Universal in December. Maybe that's good though because I bet it's going to be really crowded with HP opening.

It's February! Wasn't it just New Year's not too long ago?! Geez, before long it's going to be my birthday and then it'll be April. Hard to believe we're getting close to 2 MONTHS!

Nothing new to report on yet but once we get to 60 days I'll start making my Must-Do lists like I did for my last PTR.

In the mean time, as you all know my parents and sister just got back from Disney World on Saturday and of course they brought back some goodies! Can anybody guess what I got?



















A new t-shirt! If you remember a while back I posted the link from the Disney Store website when I saw them on there. Apparently they are a hot commodity because they had a lot of trouble tracking them down. But both my sisters and I got one. So now if we go in December we can all match.

A Silvermist pin. They bought a booster pack of 5 fairy pins and with Dad's AP discount it was only $11 for the whole set!

And last but not least...another Vinylmation Mickey! LOL! I had seen the new set online and really wanted the Jungle Cruise one. When I opened my box, I saw that I got...




















THE JUNGLE CRUISE MICKEY!!!!! hahaha, how awesome is he?!

Needless to say I was pretty excited. Love it! Thanks *DisneyDreamer!!

And last but not least the Disney on Ice show is coming to Milwaukee this weekend so I think Claire and I might go to that. Still have to get tickets though. We went to the show last year and had fun. It's always nice to get a little Disney fix at home.

Have a great night!

Yay for Disney gifts!!! We saw a DOI show in Sep. that was phenomenal!! Which show is coming? We saw Worlds of Fantasy!!

 

[Mickey_Mom]

Isn't it crazy how quickly time flies? Honestly, it feels like just the other day that I was starting to prepare for Christmas! Sorry about the flight fiasco... what's your sisters screen name? I'll hitch on to her TR. I think you're right about HP being crazy crowded at Universal. We'll just have to add it on to our whenever-Fantasyland-is-finished trip.

We have a Disney on Ice coming here in March that Ariana and I will be going to -- its the Princess Classics one! And then Beauty and the Beast the broadway show is coming here too.

 

[brookelizabeth]

8 hours?!?! Ugh. I hope she writes about that ordeal!

April will be here before we know it! And I'm welcoming it with OPEN ARMS, good-bye snow!

Love your gifts! The Vinylmation Jungle Cruise Mickey is awesome!!!!

The one coming this year is the Princess Classics. Last year we saw the 100 Years of Magic show which was cool because it had so many different characters!

I know, it is crazy. My sister's screen name is *DisneyDreamer...her PTR is right here: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2216069&page=5

That is cool about Beauty and the Beast coming too! The Lion King came here a couple years ago and that was amazing. The show coming here is also the Princess Classics, so if we go I'll be sure to post a review of it!

Oh, I'm sure she'll be writing about that. My other sister and I were kinda freaking out when they said their plane had "mechanical problems."

You know, around here we haven't really had too much snow, knock on wood. Though it did snow a little overnight.

Thanks! I couldn't believe I actually got the Mickey I wanted.

EXCITING NEWS!!

I was just informed that we have reservations for this December, right after Christmas! Yippee!!! Of course I had to share the news right away. hehe Since you can only book at your home resort 11 months out they're at Saratoga Springs...and if we do end up keeping/using them I doubt we'll be able to switch like we have for some of our recent trips (not that I mind, I love SSR! ). Just wanted to share!

 

[Mickey_Mom]

Yay! Yay!

It's not when I'm going .... but yay!

 

[RachelNinja]

Yay for souvenirs! I don't think I'll be taking time to see the fairies, but I just got a trip journal with the Fairies on it because they're so pretty! I'll post it eventually on my PTR (probably the weekend) when my life slows down. Also, a big woohoo for getting the JC Vinylmation you wanted! Haha, what are the chances!!!

 

[Angies1274]

Love the Disney gifts!! Especially, the Jungle Cruise Vinylmation Mickey!! That's so cool!!!

Oh cool about the journal! I think the fairies are some of my new favorite characters. They are so cute! haha, I know, seriously...I was pretty excited when I opened up that box. I'm usually not that lucky.

Thank you!

Another trip! Awesome news girl! Now we're both going twice this year!

Woo hoo, yes we are! I love it!

 

[meeko_33785]

That's exciting. It's always nice when you've got multiple trips in the works. Is your whole family going to going on this trip?

 

[leamom2princesses]

Congrats on the December trip! Sounds wonderful to me.

 

[Mickey_Mom]

Aww, that is kind of sad! When are you going again?

November 28th to December 5th ... -ish. I may tweak a day or so once the air fares come out.

Yes it is, it makes coming home easier when you already know you'll be going back. I don't know if everyone will be going. My mom usually doesn't like to travel after the holidays and my dad was saying something about going before Christmas for a couple days. It might end up just being my sisters and me but we'll see!

Congrats on the December trip! Sounds wonderful to me.

Thanks! It is a busy time but we've done it before and it's still always lots of fun.

Ooh, that'll be nice I bet. When we went in Dec. '08 (middle of the month) the crowds were so low...it was awesome.
