November Check In 2010

[Goofy_Mom]

Waiting is really getting on my nerves!!
I hope I see you all, wouldn't that be a KICK!
Whats your dining schedule?
I've got these Reservations:

23rd ( Tues ) 4pm Cafe Orleans
24th: 5pm Blue Bayou
25th: 2:30pm Storyteller's
26th: 1:00pm Carnation Cafe

The 27th is wide open!

We arrive the 23rd, no park for us that day just wandering around DTD and grabbing some dinner.
24th 8:30 Plaza Inn breakfast
25th 1:30(I think) Cafe Orleans
26th 5:40 AG/WOC dinner

I just remebered that I have to call the dinning line again and verify that my resies took. It would really suck to miss any of my dinning plans.

Got home yesterday Overall had a pretty good trip. The only thing that was bad was that rides kept breaking down. Splash Mountain, Indiana Jones, Toy Story Mania, Peter Pan, Matterhorn, Monorail. But the Christmas decorations make the park look extra beautiful especially at night.

 

[Princess Row]

Heres our Ressies, we are there from the 21-27th.
Staying at the Disneyland Hotel.
Nov. 23 9:30 plaza inn with Minnie for Breakfast.
Nov 24 6:50 meal at Ariels Grotto for WOC.
Nov 25 5:30 DLH ballroom for Thanksgiving
Nov 26 9:30 Breakfast with Mickey and Friends

**We are still adding in goofys somewhere.
***We will change our Ariels dinner to lunch if our golden fastpasses work because we would prefer lunch rather than dinner and would preffer the VIP seating instead.

eeeeeeee! 5 more days for us! we leave Sunday til Wednesday! Super excited! Hoping for the rain on Sunday!

Monday- Minnie and Friends 9 (me, sister, and DS, we are early risers!)
Goofy's Kitchen 11:40 (for the other 10 people in our party)
ESPN 5:30
Tuesday-Aries Grotto-10:00

I am planning on getting as many Dole Whip Floats as possible! and a Clam Chowder bowl, churro, maybe a tigger tail and apple for DS! oh and a baked potato! and a CM suggested the Pizza Port... the last time I ever ate at the PP I didn't care for it (that was years ago).

Look out for the preggo mama on the ECV with her holiday LGMH! and say "Hi"

Just back tonight- it finally happened- this was the trip I got sick.
My DD and I spent almost two whole days in the hotel total.
I actually arrived sick but was in denial...the next morning , what was supposed to be our 1st day at the park 11/11, I had a soaring fever and the worst sore throat ever.
I couldn't find dd's AP before we left so Friday I had to spend over an HOUR inline at Guest services to replace before we could go in. It was so hot & I was still feeling weak.. I knew the crowds would be CRAZY after that. And I was right. It was Spring Break Crazy that day, very hard to manage even with the fever gone due to how weak I was. The next day I could barley swallow so rested some more and didn't make it into the park until about 2:30pm. Luckily it seemed less crowded than Friday and I had eaten finally.

We purelled up like crazy & managed to salvage the trip and still have some very magical moments.
My favorite was when DD(5) said to me inline for one of our 1st rides,"mama I think you are awesome" even after the entire 1st day stuck in the hotel room with me, all the while Disneyland was right across the street and she couldn't go. She was a trooper and only teared up a few times that day about wanting to go to the park and was SO sweet to let me rest.

Sunday night after park closing, she fell asleep in her stroller as I shopped Main St and I bought her a Tinkerbell micro castle playset set she had been eying and snuck it home on the plane in her own backpack(nowhere else to put it..lol) to save for Christmas... Santa is going to tell her how sweet she was when Mama was sick @ Disneyland...

We had the pleasure of meeting up with Mariezp and her family. What are the odds that we would be on the same trip on the Lilly Belle! DD wants to meet up with them again!

 

[Jrsy Boy]

I got this in my email today. It doesn't have a bar code or anything, so I don't know why it wouldn't be OK for anyone wants to use it to go ahead. Note that it is valid for tomorrow, 11/17, only.

 

[mariezp]

Good morning again all you November travelers! This mornings post is coming to you from sunny California where hopefully my wireless connection won't zonk out on me! We are on our 8th day and have 9 to go. Darn! That must mean it is almost time to do laundry! Anyway, the weather here has cooled down and the crowds appear to have thinned out for the week. Last night was wonderful with some rides very near walk on.

As Canyon Girl mentioned, we had the pleasure of meeting up with her, CanuckDuck and their 2 kiddos. It was so funny too because we might have met up without even trying. We were both scheduled for the Lilly Belle... which was beautiful BTW, and had not even arranged to be there at the same time. We had quite a bit in common outside of our love for Disney and you would have thought our girls had known each other forever. Maybe we will bump into each other again in the park. With this bunch you never can tell because they are sure slow about dragging themselves to the park which is about to drive me INSANE but I am trying to restrain myself from having a meltdown and keep telling myself that this IS their vacation too..... so along we will continue to plod..... Thankfully they have finally decided that we can split up in different directions instead of wasting even more time standing around looking at each other trying to decide what to do next. Unfortunately, they have already rubbed off on my DD, my park buddy, so I have to undo the damage they have done and get her retrained again in the proper park touring mode!

Hi Sherry! I've been thinking of you! Wish we would have had more time to chit chat. Maybe next time. I'm just glad you did get to make it to the park and hope all your plans are coming together!

Happy travels to all who are still heading this way.... and to those who have returned.... I hope you are working up those trip reports so I have something to read when we get home!



No one new to add today but I did update the highlights to show those whose trips have already come up.

[ardenandjacksmom]

SIX days and counting....

 

[DizDragonfly]

This arrived in my email today. I thought someone here may be interested.

 

[kylie71]

Thanks for posting the RBJK email!
I have reservations at Storytellers, but this might sway me!

 

[MattsPrincess]

Leaving bright and early tomorrow morning!

 

[mvf-m11c]

Leaving tonight to Livingston and than head straight to Anaheim first thing in the morning.

 

[mariezp]

Happy Birthday Mickey!!! He's looking good for 82!
Hoping to see some festivities or some sort of celebration in the park today but so far it appears to be pretty low key..... haven't found anything anywhere on the internet.


Again, no one new to add today but am updating the highlights for those who left today.

[ShellyMouse]

that red highlighter is getting really really close to my name!!!!!

 

[Aussie Princess]

well our trip is over we are currently sitting at LAX waiting for our flight home.

Have had a wonderful time and the holiday time celebrations are truly amazing when i saw the castle all lit up and it snowing in main street usa i just wanted to cry.

No idea on when we will be back but im sure i can persuade my DH to come again.

Also just a quick note we did love lunch at BB on Saturday the best meal we had all trip and also really loved A walk in walt's footsteps tour which we did the 1st morning at DL seemed a perfect way to start the 4 days in the parks.

Oh well back to lurking for me and hoping we can make the trip across the pacific again.

xoxo

 

[ShellyMouse]

glad you had a great trip!! safe trip home!

 

[pbbecker]

Jumping in kinda late but my family and I, along with two other families, will be at the HOJO Monday, Nov. 29th - Saturday, Nov.4th. I can't wait! It's coming really fast especially with Thanksgiving next week.
Enjoy your time at DLR, Phoebe
