There’s a First Time for Everything*Day 12 The Finally*

Adventures: LilMarcieMouse (Me),Sue (My DSIS)
Date: 8/20/30 to 8/31/03
Celebrations: Sue’s Birthday
Resorts: AS-S(should have been ASMo)/Poly/Wonder/AKL

Day 1 - 8/20/03

First #1 Leaving the Night before

I woke up about 6:30 am by 7:30 I had logged on to say good bye to all of you. Sue worked till Noon. I had the day off. In the morning Mom and I brought some dry cat food to Sue at her work, she had forgotten it for their cat Greeseball. My brother Dennis came over and rode drove us to the Airport. We arrived around 2:30pm. He let us off at the door and we said goodbye to him and Mom. There was no line to check in so it was very quick. We stopped at the Food Court to have launch. We had Long John Slivers chicken. [img]graemlins/yuma.gif[/img] $7.00 and change. At about 3pm we headed to the gate and got through with no problems. I help pass time I bought 2 Invisible Ink books. One was a Mickey Mouse one that you colored. I did that in about 20 min. I did 2 pages in the 2nd one called Arm Chair Detective. Then I started my diary.

Finally we boarded and Sue let me have the window seat. When we hit the right altitude I pulled out the tape player and started listening to Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. This was the best thing I did yet. It kept me entertained till we started our decent. We got into MCO about 9:05pm. We made a Pit Stop then headed to baggage claim. Our TTC driver (Sid) was waiting for us and asked what took us so long to get there. [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img] I told him we had to go to the bathroom! [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] Our bags were on the floor NOT on the carousel. [img]images/icons/mad.gif[/img] Sue thinks Sid pulled it and left it there. Sid grab the garment bag and left the big bags for us to take and then took the escalator and NOT the elevator. Sue and I had trouble getting our bags down it. [img]graemlins/dizzy.gif[/img]

First # 2 staying at a Resort for one night

We got to All Star Movies (ASMo) paid Sid and he told us he would pick us up at AKL at 7:30pm on the 31st. we dragged everything in and there was no line. We gave our name and Sean the CM started looking. Then he gets on the phone to talk to someone tell them he had 2 guests that need a room. We had prepaid for our room, it should not have been a problem. Sean then explains that they do not have a room for us but All Star Sports (AS-S) dose and it is by the pool. (Ok I was stupid in thinking he was talking about the Surfs up pool. [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img] ) Sean asked if we had a car and we told him we took a Town car. So he arranged transpiration for us. German would meet us out side. He was very nice and took good care of us.

When we got to AS-S they acted as if Sean had never called them. They also gave us a room in East Oshkosh land. That would be Baseball #9 room 9106. Sue was so shook up from it all and to top it off my brother left a ton of voice messages on her phone that gave her a scare. We called home and she was in tears. I had to get on the phone and explained it all to mom who had no clue we book the extra stay. Then I phoned DebiDebiDebi to let her know we got in safe and sound. I told her the story while we wait for our Pizza to cook. We took it back to the room and got some rest. It had been a long day.

Tune in Next Time when I play tag.

Alright Marcie - been looking forward to this one!!! Doesn't sound like TTC has been doing so well on the customer service end as of late! [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img] And what was up with no rooms when you had a paid reservations - sheesh!

I totally understand Sue's being anxious - I am this way at the start of every trip.

Sorry you had a bit of a rough start, but I know things picked up from there - great beginning, and looking forward to hearing more! [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Thanks for starting your report, I've been looking forward to it. Sorry TTC and ASMO let you down. Sounds like it gets better from here on though.

Sorry about those snags at the All Stars...hoping the remainder of your trip (especially the cruise) were a much more pleasant experience.

Looking forward to hearing more about your trip! [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]
