I'm glad you got to meet up with Amy. I love the pictures of you two. I know it was sad to go home, but it was nice seeing Chuck, wasn't it?

Final Thoughts!!

Just a Few Final Thoughts

OK…so how did I like my first solo trip? I absolutely loved it. My 3 ½ days was perfect. Did I get everything I wanted done? No, but I blame that on still fighting that stupid cold Chuck gave me. Did I have a blast? Yes, I did. Would I do it again? Most definitely.

I had a blast at MNSSHP meeting up with all the characters, especially Eeyore ! I couldn’t believe how empty the park was for a party night. No waits whatsoever for rides. I truly love the Boo to You Parade and Hallowishes. Just a great first night. A wonderful way to start my vacation. CBR was awesome with a great location. Food was good at all places I ate. Good times indeed!

Even though it was a solo trip, are you truly ever alone when there are PassPorters around? I had plenty of time on my own but had a lot of time with some great PasPorters that I want to give a shout to one last time. to Janine and Sheila for inviting me to dinner at Le Cellier. It was a spectacular meal all around. to Mo for letting me get to know part of the Austin clan ( Hi Amtt, Emily, and Conner) and then spending a terrific afternoon in EPCOT chatting, eating, and drinking. And finally, to Amy for a good time at DTD (despite the near water collision back at the resort) and a fantastic breakfast at AK. Loved spending time with all of you and you made my trip even more special.

I finished my sscrapbook for this trip already. It’s an 8x8 rather than a 12x12 book so it went quickly. I’ll take some pictures and share in the Spare Room before I leave on Friday. As I stated throughout my TR, I didn’t buy much other than the guilt gifts for Chuck. But…I leave this TR behind with one final picture. Here are the Halloween “ears” I bought. The model was not happy at all that I put them on her but she’ll got over it.



So I leave this one behind right before I embark on my new trip! Thanks for reading. I have loved all your comments! And Danielle (disneydani), Chuck and I are sickness free and on plenty of Vitamin C. We ARE NOT getting sick!

I love your "ears" model in the final shot - - what a cutie!
