Wow wow wow! The view from the room was spectacular and the room ain't too shabby either.
We definitely got a choice room view!!Your view was incredible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Much better than ours. Not that ours was bad (well the 2nd room anyway) but yours was about as perfect as can be!
That sofabed was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much worse than the other DVC ones we've had it wasn't funny. The E's complain too (about sharing) and well, tough. I don't prefer a studio and sharing the room with them either but sometimes you just have to do what you have to do, points only go so far. They'd readily agree that they'd rather share, than miss a trip!
It was quite nice! We were happy!Wow wow wow! The view from the room was spectacular and the room ain't too shabby either.
I'm glad you are here!I'm here!!
Thanks. I hope I can get more info up for you so you can check it out before your trip. I'm sure July will be busy!!Wow! Great trip report! Thanks for sharing! We are going in July and have 2 dds similar ages (13 and almost 11-turning on our trip). We are from MN and they are both in competition dance! We may see you at a competition!
I love your pictures and hearing about what to expect. It will be a little busier when we are there though!
It's SO COOL!!! I loved that part of the park and thought they just nailed it! The only bad thing was that it was so popular, the lines were tough to deal with!Cars Land looks amazing!!!! I love the details that make you feel like you're in Radiator Springs!!!
And the view from your room---- WOW!!!! Gorgeous, especially at night!!!
Yes, I felt a little confused sometimes! The POTC was one that I thought was better in DL than WDW. I enjoyed the ride a little more. I was so surprised that we managed to do a lot on our first day. Especially considering that before we arrived, we thought we'd not even go into a park that day! HA!The layout kinda takes some getting use to, doesn't it. Even though we have been to WDW more than DLR, DLR was our first and so my dh still thinks there will we a walk way behind BTMRR to get to Fantasyland.
LOVE POT in DLR. I like how the queue feels more like you are entering a bayou rather than an old military fort.
So cool you got to ride a few rides that night AND see the fireworks. The leisurely stroll back to your room can not be beat either.
Sometimes I would forget what was where, even in which park! I did feel like a newbie! I guess technically, I was, but you know what I mean!What a wonderful first day!!!
I had issues with the layout too and kept getting confused as well. It was weird having to look at a map to get around.
I think Pooh is less busy at DL because of its location in Critter country rather than Fantasyland. It's not really by any other "little kid" rides.I'm glad you got on a few rides your first night. You'll never see only a 10 minute wait for Pooh at DW unless it is first thing in the morning.
I love the fireworks picture with the Mickey balloon...that is awesome.
The girls look a wee bit tired in that picture.
Whether you posted it before or not, that is an awesome view from your room.
I was always on the lookout for where the bathrooms were! Some of them were tough to find! Like I said - I felt like a newbie! Heck, do any of us even get the maps at WDW? I only grab them for souvenirs (scrapbooking) or to give to friends who are planning trips!Oh yes I had to consult the map too. Then I had to look for a bathroom.
Such a fish out of water story for us, since we can navigate WDW all 4 parks eyes closed almost by smell and definitely by sound.
Yes the trees in the hub, makes it hard to get a good castle shot.
Maps are like free souvenirs you should always take at least one!
Thanks! We did have a great morning. We were surprised at how much we were able to do on a Saturday morning!Thanks for the update, looks look you all had a great day. I think we will try the right side of Matterhorn first
This is just one of so many great pictures of the girls!
Aww, thanks Mary Ellen! I've been feeling nostalgic this weekend - Paige is about to finish 5th grade and no more elementary school in this house! We just had to write something in her biography about her and it was so emotional for me to do that! These pictures do the same thing!
Yay for Paige conquering the Matterhorn!
Cool that you got all he classics out of the way in the morning. All those rides before breakfast - gotta love it!
So, did I asked you this already? How were the crowds in general? Sorry if I already asked. I'm way behind.
Breakfast looks yummy, but boo to Disney bacon.
Loved the update.
I hear you on the bruises and bumpiness of the Matterhorn!!!!
The girls looks so cute and excited in most of the pictures. Glad Paige conquerred her fears!
Why can't Disney learn how to cook bacon? Do most people like it practically raw???
