DAY 1!!!
Who:
Michelle: turned 26 on the trip (9/26) and is so insanely obsessed at this point with Disney DH is asking if I need to start taking meds, or if he should cancel credit cards and shut me off....humphhh
TC: 25, I call him DH even though we aren't TECHNICALLY married...what's a piece of paper anyway? I've had a ring for a few years now and if I don't plan this wedding it won't happen---so I refuse--why let it cut into my Disney time?
Where: Coronado Springs Resort and all the WDW glory!
When: 9/25-10/1
Why: Because we need a vacation from our darling children
So I stayed up all night on the 24th...packing, cleaning and trying to ready myself for a journey...one I am scared to death to take...One that means I leave the kids home for a FULL week...By now you should have read my pre-trip report and know who's who and what's what. If not I'll be here when you get back
I heard the alarm go off @ 2:45 and TC got out of bed and headed out to find me. I was on the computer running my scans and shutting it down for the week. Making sure I wouldn't come home to 5,000 emails and writing the kids more lil notes to find. I stuffed them in backpacks, lunchboxes, dresser drawers....you get the picture--I went nuts. So I called and awoke my father who would drive us to the airport and he woke my mom who came to stay with the kids and get them to school that morning. I said my early morning goodbye and kissed their foreheads and stepped back to watch them sleep...I finally made my way out the door @ 3:20 and we were on our way. I chatted with my dad some nervous chatter on the way to Logan while TC dozed a bit in the back seat. It was a 50 minute drive and we arrived to check our bags curbside with Jetblue. It was pretty cold out so I jumped around abit and day dreamed about the warmth on my skin a few hours later.
Once in the doors with bags checked we saw security hadn't opened yet and we would be close to the first through @ 5. We grabbed pastries @ Starbucks and decided to wait till we got through for coffee. I couldn't BELIEVE the amount of people trying to walk through with coffees and drinks and actually FIGHTING with security over the absurdity that they would have to THROW AWAY the $$ they just spent. GASP! Read the news much??? We quickly made our way through shaking our heads. We realized we wouldn't board for an hour and 15 minutes so we had mucho time to spare...TC grabbed a coffee (it was horrible and he trashed it) and settled into a chair to sleep. I took out a magazine (*Cosmo I think*) and started to read but then got so tired I thought I'd fall over. So I concentrated on 3 children who were let to run crazy through our gate area and knock into people...I LOVE kids, but this made me SO glad mine were at home asleep. At 6 I woke TC and we took this photo:
and then the preboarding was called shortly after. Take off @ 7 am and TC slept the whole way. I watched some TV and read the rest of my magazine, chatting briefly with a man on the end of our row. He was actually going to CSR for a business convention--small world

Landing @ MCO about 9:55 felt REALLLLLY good and I got some shots from above right before landing which I won't bore anyone with

Headed down to DME and was taken quickly at the desk...They then ushered me (literally as a DME CM was walking that way) to my roped area. We were told we were the only ones headed to CSR and were boarding an almost full to capacity bus---2 seats left---far away from each other. So I sat with a man who kept TRYING to read my info in my clear packet. I realized I had it in my lap with my name and address facing up...Kind of creeped me out a bit but brushed it off.
First stop---POP..more then half the bus poured out, then a quick stop @ AKL where we unloaded everyone else...Our Bus driver joked about the private service we could now recieve....MMMM Disney Magic

This is my first taste of CSR:
But it seemed to end when......I got building 6A Ranchos...which if anyone here knows CSR, that is the FARTHEST building (I think) from civilization! Luckily no kids with us and we can bear with walking. Quite a bit of it we'd find out. So even less magic, The room isn't ready and I feel/look like crap from being up since 3am and can't freshen up till luggage gets in. We decide to go check out Pepper Market as we are starving half to death and have lunch. We split the Fajita platter (which is pictured in the CSR report in my signature link) and it was more then enough. We decide to head over the the Dig Site pool and go swimming...Great move as it passed time and felt really good...BAD move since the "LOVE BUGS" were to the extreme! We couldn't set our backpack anywhere are they were covering it and if anyone has been lucky enough to deal with these "love bugs" this month they'd know what I mean. After a quick dip we head to Siesta's. The pool side bar and order a few drinks. I am practically EATING bugs at this point and do everything in my power to ignore them. Max the bartender notices and explains their "business" in the area and why they are so bad. Lack of rain/storms and it is mating season...hmmm great--humping bugs that love extreme heat!

We then chat with Max about Boston/Orlando and the difference he finds in nightlife. I say Orlando is fun, Max says Boston is where it's at...is anyone ever happy with where they live??? I'm sure not! LOL....
Time for a stroll around the property to find our building before we even get our # Time for me to OOOOOH AND AHHHHH.
At about 1 I call over and find out our room #...
and head that way. It is facing a parking lot...hmmmm...well we'll deal. After all, the resort is gorgeous and we are @ WDW!!!
After dropping everything off we head to Epcot. I had ADR's for Le Cellier that evening and wanted to see if I could hit some rides..maybe 1 or 2..HA! We get there and lines are non existant....Soarin, Test Track, Living with the Land
, Mission: Space, Spaceship Earth, a stroll through both Innoventions and then we realize we did all of what I had planned on my actual Epcot day! We walk towards World Showcase and stop for a lil street humor:
Time to stop a bit here...since I can't load too many photos in one post...Stay tuned..I am tired tonight as I am suffering from migraines and am getting sick

Why does WDW do that to you???
