Hi! (again)Chunky, We're Home (again)!
Thanks for all the supportive messages about our back to back weekend trips, I knew you guys would understand!
Smugglers Run was a walk on all night.
Holy smokes! You guys must be pros, now.We went on it a total of 7 times!
When are you leaving?This is probably my last update before we head out on our 2 week trip to Singapore and California. But please follow along on Instagram in the time being. I will be sure to post from Disneyland!!
When are you leaving?
Bon voyage!!tomorrow!
Seriously. These people go camping every. single. year. They go to the beach house all. the. time. Do I spout off... "again?!".
Dinner looks like so much fun!! Love your outfits and the Queen!The Queen was hilarious as usual!
We had a great time at dinner, even pausing to stop by to say hi @Jenny Sanders and Joe's table since they had started eating as we were leaving.
That is going to be amazing!!We're going to Galaxy's Edge!! I got an AP preview slot for us Aug 18th at 9am. That day is also my niece's Eva's birthday which I am missing but I'll Facetime her from Batu'u and maybe I'll make her a droid or something, which she won't appreciate so I'll probably keep it, hahaha. Will be meeting up with some Epic ladies while there too. @kastoney @ariane37 @Monykalyn @StarWarsMomofGirls! @disneyAndi14 @amalone1013 @dizneeat and hopefully will get to meet @Cloe Colton.
Hope everything goes well in Singapore. I am sure you will do a beautiful job with the speech.I will be going to Singapore the first week of Sept. to take care of some family affairs. I'll be there with my mom and Chunkysis. We're also having a memorial for my dad at the church he attended when he lived there and all his relatives and old friends are able to attend. That happens literally the day after I arrive in Singapore so I'll have to make my speech while jet-lagged, LOL. Hopefully it won't be too bad and that they will think I'm jet-lagged and not drunk, LOL.
Which is the perfect thing to do!Meanwhile, Steve and I were about an hour behind but still made it relatively early-ish.
There was only one thing that I wanted to do.
Ride the Peoplemover!
Breakfast of champions!After PM, I went to get breakfast, and Steve went to ride Space Mountain, which just gives me a backache so I declined. I went to get my favorite again:
Which I am sure you are!Finally at Aloha Isle, we met up with the one and only @pkondz and his lovely daughter Elle. Pkondz and I got Hei Hei cones, but I didn't know that pkondz literally had a dole whip float just a few minutes before. I fooled him and Elle into thinking that I'm a very pleasant, charming person in real life.
Love this outfit!After we left Pkondz and Elle, we went to BTMRR to use our FP. I had changed into another shirt (and matching necklace!) prior because I had thoughts about meeting Aladdin and Princess Jasmine and my shirt had a Jasmine quote on it.
Go Steve!!!Then I took my time and strolled through the stores and probably got distracted by shiny new merchandise and I also stopped in Starbucks because I needed more coffee. By the time I met Steve, he said he got pictures with Snow White.
I was kinda in shock, Steve went to get SOLO pictures with a PRINCESS?!?
Awesome!We just got back from our very short weekend trip to WDW for the AP previews of Galaxy's Edge!
It was amazing. It was so surreal to be there. The Millenium Falcon was breathtaking and my jaw just dropped upon first seeing it. We loved riding Smuggler's Run and how interactive it is! We rode it 3x! There's so much detail in the new land and I'm excited to discover new things on each visit.
Oga's Cantina is exactly the wretched hive of scum and villainy that you'd expect. The drinks were fun and I ended up with a 30 dollar souvenir cup (when in Batuu...) We tried a Ronto Roaster, which was pretty good, and we had a few snacks in Oga's too.

I'm ready to do it all over again!
.
You guys know how to live life! If it wasn't so expensive for flights here, I would do that in a heartbeat!Which is happening a lot sooner than expected!
Will be heading back as guests of another Galaxy's Edge preview this weekend.
Yes, we just got back last night (crazy late too, zzzzzzz), but we're turning around and going back to Disney World on Friday night!
WHAT?!?!
Amazing!!!We had an AMAZING preview this past weekend. It was like night and day from our previous weekend preview because the crowd level was so low, that Smugglers Run was a walk on all night. We went on it a total of 7 times! (That's 10 times in total runs that we did over two weekends!) Steve and I are actually pretty decent co-pilots if I do say so myself. Well, there were times we had the whole cockpit to ourselves and we could really do anything we wanted to so we could experiment without too much pressure. I think this is the only time we will ever be at Galaxy's Edge when it is that empty and I'm forever grateful to Chunkydust for giving us this opportunity to fulfill our dreams of piloting the Millenium Falcon so. many. times.
Just running around on the Boards catching up and as you... this is my last post... BEFORE I SEE YOU!!!! YAY!! Less than a week now!This is probably my last update before we head out on our 2 week trip to Singapore and California.
I am glad you did, cause we got to see each other!But I know that my DISboard friends will understand...right?
(This is me just trying to justify making crazy Dis-cisions). <--you like what I did there too, right?
LUCKY!!!!!We went on it a total of 7 times
Success!!It took a few tries to get a pictures in front of the ball without anyone in it.
I hope these boots make it through the renovations. Maybe we need a petition? #KEEPTHEBOOTSI got us a same day FP for Spaceship Earth, so I got to oogle at these boots again:
I think Steve and my DH maybe learned from the same peopleSteve is finally learning how to take decent pictures! However it did come with a few outtakes like this:
Ah the perfect outfits! And such good photos, too.Steve had his Stitch Hawaiian shirt and I had my Hawaiian dress with pictures of hula Mickey and Minnie.
I remember reading this in Lesley's report but oh man this is so special!Also include were little magnet clips in matching colors plus our logo on it, they are so cute! But the piece de resistance were these amazing, amazing handmade quilts that she gave to Lesley and I with pictures of us and the various DISmeets we've had over the years printed on fabric and sewn into the quilt itself. OMG I could not believe Jenn made them, and for us!!! I teared up with I saw them, they are the most special gifts ever!
#blessFinally our server took pity on us and took the picture for us:
Wow that's even extra extra Disney magic!Our server told her that they would be paying for the dry cleaning of her dress, and that she could go downstairs to the gift shop and PICK OUT ANY DRESS SHOPPE DRESS to wear right then.
Next time I'm there I am going to slather myself in syrup and see if they will compensate me with a new dress too.
