Let the Wookiee Win: An August Solo Adventure! *Updated 11/17*

It sounds like you have been busy, but for all good reasons! ;)

Your upcoming trip sounds fun! It will be quite different than your solo touring, but in a good way!
 
We will surely be able to make a meet work, even if it has to be a quick one! I will PM you closer to trip time when I know more about what we're doing that day around the park :dogdance::dogdance:
 
No worries, we all understand life getting in the way of keeping caught up. You certainly have a lot on your plate. I'm sure you are looking forward to some family time, especially since that will include Disney time.

:woohoo:
 


Sounds like all really GOOD busy-ness!!! A Christmas trip with small children is just going to be sooo magical!! I am planning our January (runDisney) trip for my Dad (who hasn't been in 20+ years) and his wife (who's never been) and it makes me feel like a kid on Christmas morning to see their expressions! I can only imagine how magical it will be with little ones.
 
On top of that, let's just say my personal life has demanded a bit more of my time these last several months and there's a chance my spring trip may not be a solo one :rolleyes1 (though in many ways, I may very well miss my solo time).
Oooooooh!!!

Friday, December 29-Friday, January 5

Me, too!!! We are there 12/30 til 1/6. Hopefully we'll bump into you in your minimal park time!! :)
 
Those sound like all good reasons to fall behind!

Awesome.

And, because my niece and nephew are still quite young (2 and 4), we will likely spend just two days of our entire week at Disney (with a possible third
What?!?! I don't understand the words you are say. only 2 days out of a whole week there? Crazy talk!

But I am so excited for this trip as I rarely get to spend so much time with my sisters since one lives two hours away and the other an entire ocean
That will def make the trip magical.

Too Cute!
 


Oh, I SO feel you, here! I'm heading in to my first exam in about 20 minutes. The time-consuming nature of school is incredibly real.
I knew you would! How did your exam go?!

Oooohhh...I'll be keeping an eye out for more news here...
;)

WOW! You'll have to have your own versions of the "chunky boat," "chunk safari," etc!!
Yes! :laughing:

Oh yay! We'll be Animal Kindom on the 30th! I'm sure we'll both be busy, but I'd love to catch you for a quick hello. Maybe before you start your day at FOTLK, or before your safari FP (we have a FP there that expires at 12:05, I think.) We'll have to be in touch!
That would be wonderful! Let's PM when our trips get closer :thumbsup2

Congrats on finishing up the semester! Its been a long time since I've been in school, but the feeling of finishing that last project or walking out of the last exam is something like getting off that plane in Orlando and taking that train ride to the terminal.
Thank you! It really does feel like that! :laughing:

Have a great time in January! I'm sure it'll be a nice break from winter.
Thank you so much :goodvibes

I see no Flight of Passage in your FP's, which isn't surprising based on how hard they are to get. It wouldn't hurt to occasionally try again...you probably won't have any luck, but you never know. And when you're there, it wouldn't hurt to try for it with the 4th FP. Odds are low, but you never know.
Good call, it never hurts to look!

Also, make sure you try Satu'li Canteen!
I will! I did go a couple times in August, but my cheeseburger pods left a little to be desired - maybe I got an off night? But breakfast was amazing!!! I forgot to try the Night Blossom though, have you had that?

Yes I will be there but not for your first two days. On Thursday we will be at HS all day after I finish the 5K so I'm hoping we can work something out!
Ugh, yes, I'm hoping we work something out, too! ::yes::

It sounds like you have been busy, but for all good reasons! ;)
True! :thumbsup2

Your upcoming trip sounds fun! It will be quite different than your solo touring, but in a good way!
Thank you! I'm so looking forward to it, and yes... quite different than my solo time, but in a good way :wizard:

We will surely be able to make a meet work, even if it has to be a quick one! I will PM you closer to trip time when I know more about what we're doing that day around the park :dogdance::dogdance:
YES!!! Sounds like a plan :thumbsup2

Thank you :goodvibes Yes, I really am looking forward to lots of family time... even if it's only a little bit of Disney time :laughing:

You're absolutely right! Because it's post-Christmas, I always forget all the beautiful decorations will still be up! :wizard: Wow! Your trip sounds amazing - it really is so special to see Disney through the eyes of newbies (or someone who hasn't been in 20+ years!). I'm so excited for you!!!

Oooooooh!!!
;)

Me, too!!! We are there 12/30 til 1/6. Hopefully we'll bump into you in your minimal park time!! :)
I would love that! :thumbsup2

Those sound like all good reasons to fall behind!
I think you're right ;)

What?!?! I don't understand the words you are say. only 2 days out of a whole week there? Crazy talk!
I know. I knew you wouldn't understand :rotfl:

That will def make the trip magical.
I completely agree :goodvibes

Too Cute!
Thanks! He's just the happiest little boy... I cannot wait to get him back to Disney! His love for Disney is catching up to mine ;)
 
Sounds like a fun trip with family, I love your selfishness with Dinosaur lol! It is my favorite ride!!

Enjoy your time with your sister and all your family over the Holidays.

It also sounds like your personal life is maybe heating up!:thumbsup2
 
I'm Still Alive!
Or... what the final month of the semester has felt like
After you described it earlier I'm shocked you are here at all!!!! I got my MBA a while back while working full time and I can attest it was not fun.

On top of that, let's just say my personal life has demanded a bit more of my time these last several months and there's a chance my spring trip may not be a solo one :rolleyes1 (though in many ways, I may very well miss my solo time).
I won't pry but :love::love::love::love::love:

The Who (not that one): Me!, both my sisters, my sister's husband, son, and daughter, my dad, my dad's girlfriend, and two of his girlfriend's daughters. If you're keeping track, that's 10 of us! :eek: I don't think we're quite at @chunkymonkey's August numbers, but still a large number all the same! (especially for this solo tripper!)
I had no idea you had another trip on the horizon. Huge group or not Tracy is going to Disney World!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And Kelly and me. Is anyone else appalled I'm the only one in Disney gear?! I'll really have to get these people to step up there game... :faint:
Great pooper picture :-) And in the defense of your family just because you don't have Disney gear doesn't mean you don't love it (says the woman who has next to none)

dditionally, I won't be spending a single minute at my beloved Epcot! :faint: However, on a separate day, we have an ADR at Chef Mickey's, so at least we'll have three days guaranteed on property :lovestruc But I am so excited for this trip as I rarely get to spend so much time with my sisters since one lives two hours away and the other an entire ocean. Here are the plans so far:
:scared1::scared1::scared1: Any chance you can escape the family for a bit for some solo time?

Someone with whom you can share a rider swap pass with? :)

Haha, anything more than 2 people is a challenge...

What!!??! That must be rectified soon...maybe you can gift them some Disney t-shirts for x-mas? LOL.

The pure joy in this child's face as we watch the parade! :lovestruc

Aww so cute.

It isn't, is it?! Was that pre-Casey?! Because I can't imagine also being a mother AND working full time AND going to school! Either way, go you :thumbsup2

I won't pry but :love::love::love::love::love:

She is!!!!!!! Yippeeeeee! :hyper:

This is very true! ;)

:scared1::scared1::scared1: Any chance you can escape the family for a bit for some solo time?
We shall see... might have to see what I can do ;)

Time will tell... :rolleyes1 :laughing:

I agree! :laughing:

I think that's a great idea! I'd considered matching custom shirts but we'll have to see about that level of intensity :rotfl:

Aww so cute.
Isn't he?! :lovestruc
 
...I will! I did go a couple times in August, but my cheeseburger pods left a little to be desired - maybe I got an off night? But breakfast was amazing!!! I forgot to try the Night Blossom though, have you had that?...

I've only been the one time and had a chicken bowl, which was amazing. I've seen kind of mixed reviews on the cheeseburger pods. Didn't have the Night Blossom...
 
Hi, Tracy. I am continually falling behind here too, but sounds like you've had better reasons than I have. :laughing: Glad to hear things seem to be going well and that you will be at WDW so soon!

If I miss a day or two of the Dis, I'm inevitably horribly behind, it doesn't take long :laughing:

Thank you! Yes, I cannot believe my trip is so close... :hyper:
