Yay for a new TR! I just happened to check the list of trip reports today since I normally just go to what I have bookmarked. Even then I'm so far behind on reading, but I just had to start yours and comment!
I CRACKED UP about the whole getting a razor at CVS thing and the "grow a beard" comment! It was so funny that I had to read it out loud to Howard too! I completely agree! It's DISNEY WORLD! It's time to get goin'!
Yum, the holiday sandwich! If for whatever reason we can't make it to DTD during our next trip, I saw that they have a turkey sandwich at Pop. I know it won't be the same, but it's also a ton of carbs on a sandwich, and we might have to try that one!
Yay, glad you're here! I'm so behind on TR's too, and I'm afraid I'm never going to get caught up! I'm reading the ones I'm subbed to, but I just don't have time to comment on all of them, but I do read them!
Haha, yeah, seriously, he was driving me crazy with the razors! It wouldn't have been so bad if we didn't wait so long for our bags and then the car, but it felt like we'd never get there!
I almost tried that sandwich at Pop, but I figured if I'm going to eat a sandwich, i'm eating at Earl's! I hope you get to try it, it's so good!
Yay you've arrived. I'm sorry you had to wait so long for your luggage and that the car rental counter was so busy. I've noticed that about Alamo in the past...they always seem to have the longest lines (I know we've stood in one for 45 minutes once).
Too funny that you had to stop for razors. I would have told my husband to get them at the gift shop at the resort if he had to have them.
Glad to hear your room was ready and your MB's worked. You crack me up with Stacy. I purposely do NOT turn on the TV the entire trip because she annoys the heck out of me.
I'm glad that you finally got to your favorite park. I'm with you on Starbucks...delighted that they are now in Disney.
Can't wait to read more.
Yeah the line at Alamo is always annoying. I wish I could use the kiosks, but it won't let you add a driver so I can't! I think from now on we'll just go right outside...
I didn't even think about the gift shop! And honestly, I'm not even sure if he ended up shaving the whole time we were there! He might have once, but I don't think so! Ugh! We wasted so much time!
Aww, I love Stacey!
I love that Starbucks is in Disney, it's perfect! I miss the Main Street Bakery a little, but not enough to not want Starbucks in it's place!
Man, I thought I didn't get much sleep the night before our trip, but you have me beat! I don't know how you fly out SO early in the morning. Even with Disney as the destination, I don't know that I could be excited that early.
Ah, we have pictures of the airport Christmas tree too. I think you are obligated to take a picture of it if you're writing a trip report! And good point about the palm trees next to it - never noticed that.
We passed a really long car rental line on our way to the Magical Express area (I don't think it was Alamo, though). I was so glad that we didn't have to do that. I'm glad you found a shortcut (thanks, DIS!)
I like the blue of your cute little car! Good color.
Ha ha on the "grow a beard!"
Huh, we had Stacy. Glad you found her in some form!
Cute window decorations!
I didn't know there were special Starbucks flavors at Disney. That sounds good!
I love that feeling of the whole trip being ahead of you. Moments to savor!
Haha, I don't know, I just like getting there early! I like having the whole day ahead of me! I keep saying we should fly at night, get there, do all of the annoying things like check in, unpack, and then go somewhere to dinner and go to sleep early our first night of a trip, but I end up changing our flights to early! Why waste a whole day!
I wish we could do Magical Express, but I like the freedom of having a car. I did enjoy the buses when I went with my sister in Feb. but I know Brandon would never put up with them, he has no patience!
Yeah I don't know what was up with Stacey, but thank goodness I found her on the Spanish channel, and that she was speaking English! I seriously would have asked for a new room!
I didn't know there were special Disney Starbucks flavors either, but I'm glad there was, because it was SO good!
I love just arriving in Disney and having the whole trip ahead of you, it's the best!
I'm here! I'm in! (And I love Pop's new bedding!)
Yay!!! It's really cute, isn't it!
Oh my! Crazy you had to wait so long for luggage!! And holy cow, long lines suck at rental car places!!! Good to know you can go outside if needed!!!
That frap looks and sounds delicious!!!!
Yay for getting started!! Can't wait to read more
I know it was annoying, I almost started crying out of frustration! And then the rental car, ugh! I've never seen a line that long at Alamo, and they take SO long, we would have been there for hours!
It was delicious, I love Starbucks at Disney!
