Re: Dana - trip report for 10/06

wow that was a rough picture...sorry all remember I am a rookie with this camera.

So soon enough security opened and we got through with no issues. We settled at the gate and were amazed at how small this airport is. I am going to try to go there for each trip...much nicer than philly. We slid into the bar where I got the kids all a red bull and I had a double captain and coke..lol We loaded up on the plane and were thrilled to see that it wasn't even close to being full. I moved up a row and sat with DN and the girls were right behind me. DN was alseep before we took off and I just sat there praying the entire flight. It was mega bumpy!

We landed in orlando perfectly on time (first WDW trip ever for me to land on time) and we made our way to the baggage claim. I ws showing DN what to do for his return flight on Sunday while we walked through. He was flying alone and I wanted to make sure he knwn what to do. The towncar driver was waiting at the escalator and I made my way over to her. I asked her to grab the car and meet me. I had three kids and myself and did not need her help with the luggage....I just wanted to get to the resort ASAP.

The luggage came out and we were on our way. I called DBF while we were driving and he was waiting for us at OKW. As we were pulling in, I saw DBF unloading his car. We met up at the bell services desk and went into check in.

They were unable to grant any of my building requests. I asked for building 62,63 or 64 in that order. We had the choice between 23 and 18. 18 was ready right away, so we went with that one. I paid for the dining and when the lady printed my room keys, they all said unknown as the name except for mine. She told me that it wouldn't be an issue. They were having updates done and all the CM's on property were aware of it...ok.

We grabbed the bags and walked to building 18 that really wasnt that far from what I wanted anyway. No biggie. We had to carry all the luggage up to room 1820 on the second floor because there was no elevator...should have got bell services to bring the luggage I think...whew! what a work out that was. WE were in the room soon enough and were just in awe! This place is beautiul! llama called me soon after we got in and just listened to me gush on the phone. Here is what the room looked like.
