GaDawgFan.....Kelly 799 Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 I'm late to the party, but....1) This GA girl loves WaWa! There's no way in hell I'd eat food from a regular gas station, but there, it's good.2) Publix subs do rock, but South Jersey subs are better... and they call them subs.3) I LOVE the PL photos! How cool about being recognized during the parade! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Beckers 1,136 Posted January 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 The next morning, I gave Adam a bath and that darn make up wouldn't come off for anything! He wasn't happy I was trying to wash it off in the first place and it wasn't willing to budge, so I said screw it. Adam wanted to wear his costume again, which was fine with me considering it was $70!and this will be the end as it's snowing right now and we need to go play! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Beckers 1,136 Posted January 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 alright, done playing in the snow, the boy is off to bed to rest up for his big day tomorrow! (side note the snow is really pretty and sparkly! but it's no good for making snowmen or anything, it's like shaved Styrofoam)Back to the report!The pirates league make up wouldn't come off, so I gave up. Today we were going to EPCOT. My parents stayed back at the room because mom's foot was still hurting her. First thing we did was Spaceship Earth, Adam loves to pick crazy languages on it and then gets mad at me when he asks what its says and I say I don't know lol!We went to The Land and grabbed FP for his first time on Soarin'. He was tall enough last year but I didn't think he was old enough for it. I had some crazy scenario in my head that he was going to freak out and fall out of the ride. He was very upset that TT was closed but we promised him Soarin' would be better. I forget what time the FP's were for but we rode Living with the Land and actually had a bit of a wait! We have never had to wait for it!We decided to grab some lunch at Sunshine Seasons, it's my favorite quick service place. This is where I made a huge mistake. #1 rule with a food allergy kid is never assume something is safe and say they can eat it before checking! We were looking at the pictures of the food and Adam saw a pizza panni and that is what he wanted. So I said great, lets go talk to someone about it. So he was excited about his pizza sandwich, Brian was getting his own food and I knew I wanted my beloved pork chop. We talk to the chef and guess what? The pizza panni isn't safe for peanut/treenut allergies because of possible cross contamination. :banghead: I felt like an ass. Adam was so upset. I should have known better than to say he could have it, I should have said, we have to check first. I didn't, he was crying, I was on the verge of tears. Not fun. Thankfully they had enough random stuff that I was able to get him a semi-balanced meal and a bag of Cheetos was enough to soothe over the pizza drama.Back to the pork chop, it's amazing! I don't normally like pork chops but this is a must have for me every trip.For some reason I have no pood forn but I have this!After the lunch drama we headed over to Nemo.Adam didn't want to do Turtle Talk and we have an annual pass to our local aquarium so looking at the fish wasn't high priority.A diver was coming out of the tank and Adam wanted his picture with him. . Notice the dirty, tired pirate from yesterday face? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beckers 1,136 Posted January 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 When we came out of Nemo, there was a janitor "brooming" Mickey and Minnie on the sidewalk and letting the kids help.Adam really loved getting to help, this was another big highlight for him. Some lady asked the guy what kind of paint is he using that evaporates. I thought he was going to die trying not to laugh when he responded with "uh, it's water" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beckers 1,136 Posted January 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 It was finally time to use our FP for Soarin' so we headed over there. Adam was started to get a little worried about it but once we got in there he was fine. I think the fact that he couldn't see anything didn't help. He really loved it! After this we headed back to AoA to nap, the one thing I remember is it was insanely windy that day, and standing under or around it was crazy. This is when Sandy was moving up the coast and heading to NJ. This picture is junk, but it shows you what the table/bed is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Beckers 1,136 Posted February 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 After naps, we headed back to EPCOT (we didn't have hoopers). My parents came with us but this time we forced my mom to get a wheelchair. She was being stubborn about it but once we got it she said she was glad we did. There was a slot for courtesy wheelchairs at the bus stop to get to you the rentals spot but they were all empty. Brian ran ahead and got her a chair and brought it back to us. The best thing is where you hand write the name, my husband wrote "Witch SSBB's Mommy's last name" We joke with her a lot she is a witch and ask her where her broom is. She made the mistake of dressing as a witch when I was little for Halloween and the picture has haunted her for years :cauldron-smiley:We made the mistake of trying to check out Food and Wine, on a Friday night. Dumbest.Move.Ever. It was packed, lines were long, no one was thrilled to be fighting the crowds. We got some shrimp from Australia? I think. It was tasty but there was no way we were dealing with any more of the craziness. We headed back to AoA to start packing Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beckers 1,136 Posted February 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Saturday we were checking out and ending the first 1/2 of our trip. The only good thing, was this meant it was time to go fishing! My parents took my brother and I fishing when we were probably 6 and 8 yrs old and my dad has been wanting to take Adam when he was old enough. We always try to do one "extra" each trip. The past 2 trips we have done Wishes Fireworks cruise, and they were awesome but it was time for something new. We decided to leave out from The Wilderness Lodge because we wanted to have lunch at Whispering Canyon.We got to WL a lot earlier than we needed to be there so we walked around for a bit and then headed down to beach to wait for 10 to roll around.Mimi is telling a fish tale here :) Some playground time Tether BallI'm pretty sure our guide's name was Dan. He was great! This job really fit him well and he took us to some great spots. My mom caught the first fish, I don't think the rest of us even had poles in the water yet!Adam's first fish! Using the fish grabber thingy wasn't good enough for Adam, he had to hold it like the rest of us where. Thankfully the guide had a small glove that he could use. but I caught the biggest fish of them all! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 That is an AWESOME fish story!!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beckers 1,136 Posted February 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 I wanted to fish in front of the Magic Kingdom, the atmosphere was awesome but the fishing SMB! Didn't catch a single fish.The fishing was awesome, we were catching so much fish (except for when in front of the MK) it got to the point where it was like, oh another fish? That is my kind of fishing. Adam loved it, he probably caught over 10 fish and loved playing in the bait. The fishing trip was worth every penny and I would do it again in a heartbeat. I'll spare you more fish pics. We had to go to Fort Wilderness to pay and then headed back to WL for lunch! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Taking that fishing excursion was a great idea.What a fun memory for all of you.Love your big fish photo. Well done!I am glad that you are now getting to the best part of your report: The Fort!TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
