Does this mean that you will at least come back for a CT meet in the future??? I am hoping so as I will miss you until the next time that I can get back to WDW and say, "Come meet us!" But it was good seeing you in July.

So I spent Monday at WDW. I love this I can pop over to the parks when I want to

I went to EPCOT and got my ecv another $65 ($20 deposit returned at the end of the night) but its the only way I can do Epcot the walking would knock me out.

I headed over to the American adventure and had lunch at Liberty Inn a Chicken Cesar Salad. It was ok nothing special and the apple cobbler lacked anything special but it was Disney food so it was good

I knew Marisag was here with her mom and 3 girls that her mom watches so I text messaged her and we agreed to meet at The Land after they went on Soarin. So after watching a few minutes of the juggler in Italy I made my way back into Future World. Over to the Land and I waited for them to get off the ride.

Marisa and I chatted for a few minutes then we all went on Living with the Land. While I was on LWTL my phone rang it was Jyl (Jpod523) she was there and did I want to meet up of course!

Marisa and her crew were heading to the Seas building and Jyl and I met upstairs in the Land then decided to ride Soarin. So back downstairs after saying see ya later to Marisa.

Jyl and I went on Soarin, then decided to check out World Showcase as she has never riden Malstrom, or seen any of the movies. We stopped at Norway and we got onto our viking ship, watched the movie and fixed the "never rode it" issue

Then it was on to China to watch that movie, and then the American Adventure both were nice and you all will be happy to know I did not take a nap in either like usual

After the American Adventure Jyl got a Boston Crab Cake from Hops and Barley from the F&W festival and then we made our way around WS to Mexico to have dinner but we didn't rush it we just wandered around enjoying the scenery.

Eventually we got to Mexico we had dinner at the CS Cantina and sat on the water's edge and enjoyed our Wet Burrito's and Churros. It was good, it wasn't very hot so that was a downside but we enjoyed it.

After dinner we headed over to Test Track I haven't gone on that ride in at least 5 trips and it was fun I think i'll have to go again!

After Test track we headed over to Spaceship earth and that was fun I like the new additions to it and then we spent time in the play area at the end of the ride. That was fun just glad it isn't empty anymore!

We decided to find a spot for Illuminations and we made our way to the World Showcase and found spots to the right of the shops where world showcase meets Future World in the Handicap section. Its easier to find a place with the ecv in those sections because you are not running the risk of running anyone over trying to park.

We had a great view but I had left the camera home by accident and so will have to try and get that spot another time to take photos.

After illuminations we headed out returned the ecv and then i took Jyl back to her complex where she is staying in her College Program.

It was a 8 minute drive back home, and i went right to bed.

It was a great day!

I will take photos today of the furnished apartment and post them tonight hopefully. Then sadly this report will be finished

So until my next update!

What a great day, Amy! you can't finish this TR. We love hearing what life is like living in our favorite place. I would love it if there was thread that I could book mark where you posted about PP mini meets and life in Orlando. Maybe Dave and Jennifer could set you up with a blog section. You could be our roving reporter of WDW and other places in Orlando.

Oh Amy you're my hero. I so want to move south too and I have decided that in 5 years when my dd goes off to college I'm moving out of PA. If she has to come home for the holidays, why can't home be Florida. I now have 5 years to get my college degree and get ready to get a job somewhere else. I will have to consult you when it's time to move since your move sounded like a huge success. We never met up when I was up north for dd's Ice hockey but I'll definately make sure to tell you next time i'm in Florida.
