Currently raising funds for the AMAZING Give Kids The World for their annual Coasting for Kids event. Any amount would go a long way in helping a family enjoy an amazing Orlando vacation. You can donate on my page.
It's a tie: My 7 year old's face when we went on Expedition Everest, and my 5 year old's face when Crush "talked to him and the other kids" at Turtle Talk. (There were probably other places that they experienced that elicited the same reactions but those are the two I remember most...)

I know, I've heard so many good things about it! Well, and a few bad - but mostly good.I should go, I don't go to many shows anymore.
Oh - and and I wanted to add also, congratulations to Never Neverland and Yo Yo Flamingo. They just got engaged (I hate when things are in the lounge, I never hardly find them!)
Summer - great pics!!!
Our whole December trip was wonderful but highlights include,
Seeing the castle lit up for the first time
Cirque Du Soleil
The Candlelight Processional
Our breakfast at Ohana(that was our favourite meal during our whole trip!)
Meeting Denise(nbodyhome), she was very nice
Getting to try the chocolate fudge cake at Disney Quest!, it was SO good!!(Denise recommended it, thank you Denise, although, i still think your fudge is hard to beat!
I also loved the boat rides from POFQ to DTD, i found it very relaxing, especially at night. The walk from POFQ to RS was nice too, a great way to chill out for a while after a busy day at the parks, we will definetly stay at POFQ again, it was our first time there and we loved it!![]()
I have, thank you for those too! I am working slowly on everything - I need to lose the few pounds I gained!![]()
I'm glad you enjoyed the fudge (and clusters). I'm making some this weekend for the MC meet! Also, the fudge is VERY easy to make. I added some cinnamon to that batch, which I thought made it really stand out more. I can make 5 1/2 pounds in about 20 minutes. :-D
-Almost getting run over by Jack Sparrow
-Getting to go at my own pace and not having a bunch of teenagers around me not wanting to go on rides
-The MNSSHP's fireworks! They were pretty awesome!!
-Being called "Elizabeth Swann" a bunch of times by little kids at MNSSHP even though I had started dressing up as Jack but was too frustrated/sick/annoyed to do the makeup and hair (I got a horrible cold/flu thing on the last two days of my trip). They made me happy, almost as happy as the ones that recognized me as Tonks at the Book 7 release date party (Okay that one I actually spent 3 hours getting ready for, but still, for a 4 year old to go "Mom! Look! It's Tonks!" makes you kind of warm and fuzzy inside)
-Seeing people get their pictures taken with my dad because hey! look! It's Santa on vacation! Also seeing the look on dad's face when they did that.
-Rockin Rollercoaster!!! I wish I had gone on that 14 more times!
-Finally going after 10 years, and getting to see my parents' faces at the park's changes from their last visit in 1988.
We had seasonal passes this year and went as much as possible.
My favorite days were:
We went to the Flower and Garden festival during the Characters in Bloom weekend. The weather was beautiful-warm breeze, just perfect. I really didn't want to leave.
Taking the ferry from Marketplace to Westside and having my daughter exclaim "Look! It is Spongebob's house" when she saw the giant pineapple (Bongos).
Getting to meet and hang out with Micechatters.
It would have to be our trip in July for my birthday. The best night was sitting on the curb of Mainstreet with a caramel apple and cotton Candy for the kids watching the Spectromagic parade. It was just one of those "magical" moments!
My favorite WDW memory of 2007 would be seeing the joy on my daughters face when she got to meet Cinderella. It was my daughters first trip to WDW !!!
Since I didn't go to WDW in 2007, can I say discovering Micechat as my favorite memory?
Downloading the Nemo Musical soundtrack would be a close second.
Dec 10 - 14 was our first visit to WDW. The whole visit was a great memory!
Highlights:
Having the DME bus completely to ourselves
Our room at POR being ready at 6:00am
Expedition Everest! My new favorite.
World Showcase at EPCOT. One wow after another.
Excellent dinner at Nine Dragons.
Cinderella castle lighting
The nice lesbian couple who helped us get our sweaters straightened out for our castle pic
Riding BTM during the fireworks
Fun conversation with the people in line while waiting for the bus
Riding the "People Mover" at WDW
Hot chocolate and cookies at MVMCP
The boat ride between POR and DTD
While my heart will always be in Disneyland, I loved WDW and look forward to going back!
