We are counting down ...

We just got to our room at the Contemporary (jaw dropped... nicest hotel I've ever stayed in!) and we're in the garden wing with a water view on the first floor. It took forever to walk here (especially with a broken foot) but it's worth it. I'll post pics of our room as soon as I get home. I'm on the room computer now and it let me upload photos to send pics to our moms but the files are huge and I can't re-size them on here.

We did Downtown Disney today! It was wonderful and the crowds weren't as bad as I had expected.... anywhere we've been so far. We accidentally went to the MK parking lot at 11am and it was nowhere near even 1/8th of the way full I bet. The TTC wasn't even that busy at noon. We ate at the Rainforest Cafe for lunch and sat next to the animatronic (sp?) elephant in the Gorilla room. It was definitely an interesting experience. I recommend the Gorillaritas (curevo gold tequila and orange sherbet).

The weather is so so. Sometimes it's gloomy but other times it's quite pleasant, with a nice strong breeze. I thought that it was going to storm there for awhile but it didn't.

Tonight we head to the California Grill for a 9:30 reservation and we'll see Wishes over the Magic Kingdom at 10pm. Now it's time for me to go nap!

More updates soon!

We'll be there tomorrow night!! I can't believe that the trip is finally here! I have been waiting so long. Just the 2 of us for 8 whole days! We love the CR too, but we will be at the BWV this time. We want to spend a lot of time at EPCOT.

Have a great trip and maybe we'll run into you somewhere! We may be at the MK EMH tomorrow night after we arrive.

How is your foot holding up? We are headed down in 9 days and I also have a broken foot!! I'm in a walking boot and have reserved a scooter. Any advice you can give? Oh, and have a GREAT time!!

My foot was very sore walking around Downtown Disney yesterday, but today it's been pretty much 100% fine! I took 3 Advil liquid gels before we left and I think that beat the pain cycle. That's what I recommend for you... take it when you wake up and then as often as recommended. I hope your foot gets better and that you have a magical trip!

Wow the room pics look awesome! Do you have anymore? I fondly remember what they looked like back when WDW first opened. They were so modern back then. Nice to see how up to date they have made things!

Great pictures. If you don't mind me asking, what kind of camera are you using?

 

[MEK]

Nice pictures. It's like being there with you! How are the crowds?????? I am definately considering an early/mid August trip next year. I was just there in early June, but it feels like I need another vacation already.

 

[Stargazer]

Thanks so much for the live updates! We'll be arriving on Saturday

 

[disneyfan61]

I'm here also. Can't wait for more updates.

Boo Bear I love your photos. Thanks for posting.

Its a Panasonic Lumix TZ5.... SO worth the money! I work at a camera store and I bought this one off amazon.com because I couldn't wait for it to get to my store before my trip (I went to the American Idols concert and wanted it). Speaking of my awesome camera... I just walked back from Wishes and I'm so excited about my pictures. http://bridgettebuntin.typepad.com/photos/disney_world/index.html I want to do a little photoshopping, but not a whole lot since the camera has a wide angle leica lens. Good times!
