Were back!

[disneyluvbug]

We got back last night from 5 days in Disney and stayed at our favorite the GCH!!! The 24th & 25th were not crowded and after that well it was totally packed!!!!!

Yesterday we just did DCA for a few hours ..we went on Monsters Inc with the kids, well getting off I heard the guy say that the dream team was coming (he mentioned her name as Naomi) so we walked out, I saw 3 of them walk up the exit so tell DH we must go on again, while unstrapping DS from stroller another family went on ride in front of us (there was NO line I mean NONE!) we go on ride..get off.. the family in front of us WON THE DREAM SUITE!!!!! I was expecting fast passes..LOL!!! It was around 10:20amish.. They had NO clue what it was either!! The dream lady was soo excited telling them and they were soo not sure what it was! THere were a bunch of staff people randomly around also walking with them.. It was neat to see someone actually win it!!!(wish we won, oh well)

I will do a trip report when I have rested up!!

Wow! Talk about timing! So close you could taste it, huh?!

Welcome back!

It sounds like you and your family had a really nice time. I wish that you had been selected for the Dream Suite.
In a way, it is rather sad, when someone wins something awesome, however they have really no clue as to what it is. I see a situation like that for almost being a wasted prize, really.
Anyway, nice to see someone that lives right next door to me, as it were. I live in Sonoma County, so we are neighbors in a way.

Yes you are very close to us!!! The people who won looked liked they had literally just gotten there..the mom had the disney folder you get when you check in , she was holding it and the kids had maps.. not once did they seemed exicted, more scared/confused.. perhaps it was all the questions she was asking them?? I would have been beyond excited and so would have DD!!
That was the closet we have ever come to the big prize..but at least I actually saw someone win it and not just wonder how they win..

we had a great trip.. doing disney pregnant is a lot more tiring, but still worth it!! Even happy with all the food service.. our last trip we were less than happy!!

Gisele if you are ever out this way you should visit our brewery/winery here in Napa!

How were the crowds at DCA yesterday?

Were they still horrible?

 

[disneyluvbug]

yes..the crowds were HORRIBLE!!! We left the park around 1230, I waited 20min to get a corn dog at the Castle corn dog (pregnant lady craving bad) ..we ate them and left.. my DH waited a bit for TOT and did single rider for scremin. every thing else was busy..it was getting warm also.. it was also a crappy drive home on 5, took 5hrs to get to Harris Ranch.. we left the GCH at 130 and got to dinner at HR @ 6pm!!!! The kids were so done sitting and so was I!!! I had never seen that many cars on 5 before! When we had our bags taken down, the man told us that it was going to be very busy when we planned on leaving, he said it was one of the bussiest check in dates of the year and to expect it to be busy when we left.. he was right!!

disneyluvbug,


Thank you for the very kind invitation. I most definitely would love to see your beautiful winery, when I may have an opportunity to do so.

I say if one is noticeably pregnant, or if one knows that some one is, they should not have to wait in a long line, especially if it is for food or the rest room. Especially the rest room.

I hope that you and your family were able to visit Jose and his feathered songster friends at The Enchanted Tiki Room. I so love that show.

Glad you had fun, sorry you didn't win the Dream Suite. I would have freaked out myself. LOL Winery in Napa???? What winery do you own??? My BFF grew up in Napa.

More talk of wine!? I love the direction the DIS is heading.

I'm curious as to what winery you own too.

Can't wait to read you trip report!
