Hi Everyone
We brought Andi to college today, it went really well overall. My husband cried more than me, he always does, ha, ha! I tried to hold it together and focus on how exciting it is for her to start this new chapter.
This is her roommate Ashley, a very nice young lady, she is also majoring in Spanish with a minor in Health Information. Their dorm is an immersion dorm for students studying Spanish, French, and International studies.

I will be back soon to get on with the first evening at DAH event!!
Thank you for joining, Chik was yummy, wish we had more around us, for now I can only enjoy when traveling.You had me at Chick-fil-a. Following!
Her roommate is very nice. Cosmic Rays was mobbed and the poor fixings bar needed a refresh for sure, the burger was good. It was so fun to fly on Dumbo and watch the fireworks, I loved it!Nice pic of Andi and her roomie. Best of luck to her!!
Ugh, I'm sorry to hear your bad luck continued in the park between the mess at Cosmic Rays and your anytime FP being used!
I've always wanted to watch the fireworks while on Dumbo! Great pics from the evening so far!
I keep waiting for Andi to come down from her room and say hi mom what’s up, she has been texting me and doing well adjusting to dorm life so that is good.Lovely picture!! I can only imagine how you must feel going into her empty room...... Think I told you we were lucky Kyle commuted to University.......I’d have been in bits if he had left!! But, hope she is enjoying her first weeks there.........
But, what a start to your trip!! Not the best........but glad you enjoyed the burger........love the pictures as always......
And glad to read trip gets better....
Yes some travel days sure can be rough! It was slowly getting better as the night went on.Ugh I know all too well how a crappy travel day makes you feel like the rest of the trip is just going to be not so great. At least the burger perked you up! I wish I had tried one of those because they looked pretty good! Especially for MK QS standards lol
Our tired brains thought so, we walked over and it was busy, however, we showed our blue wrist band and went in the FP line, it was quick
We did magic carpets for the first time in forever. It was fun, I sure wouldn’t wait for this and with very few people riding it was fine.
time for me to grab a few more sodas and water.
Oh no, been there done that.We were exhausted so we wanted to take a rest and oh my it was so loud in our room. We were directly above the WCC restaurant. We could hear clapping and whooping like it was right next to us. The noise from the large open lobby was also very noticeable! I don’t like to complain and have never requested a different room but I knew this was going to drive me crazy.
Yay glad it was quite and comfortable plus I would consider it an upgrade from WL.By 5pm we were checking into our new room 5218 Sago Cay.
Love that about it.I forgot how convenient it is to jump on the monorail and be in MK within 5 minutes, wonderful!
I love this picture.
Love a Mickey Bar, It tasted so good on the hot night!Cute pics with your Mickey bars! I would have been like you and stuffing my backpack full of beverages!
Despite being tired it was really fun and the low crowds was so nice for a change!I'm glad to hear it's a good event and that you guys enjoyed yourselves!
Disney must have learned from your DAH, every snack cart had full supplies of drinks. It was so hot that evening!Looks like you had a great DAH night!! I wish we would have been able to get as many drinks as you because the only part I didnt like was the fact that I was so thirsty the whole night and it was HOT
Thank you for joining in! We have had great mom and daughter trips! My husband would never travel to Florida in August, lol! Son is to cool for Disney, can you believe that!I just found your report. I love to read TRs about Mother-Daughter trips!
This worked great for 7DMT otherwise I don’t think we would have waited!Oooh I heard about this trick, but never actually used it! So cool!
Thank you, I have been trying to get this picture for the last 3 trips and never did! Glad we waited, this was the longest line we waited in, about 15 minutes at least.Great lantern photo! Also love the one you posted later with you and Andi looking at each other!
I really liked it, we haven’t been on this since Andi was 5, a long time!This is one of my favorite things to do when there's no line, easily my favorite spinner!
Glenda! Yes our room was just to loud at WL otherwise I would have loved to stay there. GF was nice and quiet for resting even during the day!Yay glad it was quite and comfortable plus I would consider it an upgrade from WL.
Thank you so much! The lantern pictures were on my wish list for awhile so I was glad to get them.Caroline, the pics of you and Andi are priceless!!!! I really like the lantern pictures! And, I can't wait to hear more about your trip. Keep the reports coming...
DAH is really a good event, the ability to do so many attractions without tons of people is so nice.DAH sounds awesome. Hope to make it one some day .
PS how is empty nesting going ?
