Favorite meal and favorite snack

How many times have you been to WDW? Have you been to any of the other Disney parks?

Favorite WDW memory?

What is your favorite park?

What ride or attraction don't you like? Why?

What do you love at WDW that others don't, and what do you not love that others do?

Favorite meal is definately a tough one! I would have to say the Filet and Risotto, and Beer Cheese soup from Le Cellier. I the Risotto!!!! But since we had such awful service last year, DH has decided it will be a while before we go back. So, my next favorite meal would have to be the noodles and OMG Potstickers at Ohana! I could just make a meal of that and be happy!

We are still working on new restaurants each trip we take. I actually haven't found a meal that I haven't liked! Some are much better than others, though. I wouldn't call myself a foodie, but I love to try new things and new restaurants.

As far as the favorite snack goes..... we still didn't venture out to try new snacks during our past trip in April. So, I would still have to say the oreo icecream Mickey sandwich. I am definately trying a Dole Whip this coming trip! And I hope we are still on for the Kitchen Sink Also wanting to try some of the cupcakes that have been mentioned on here. I did try a cappuccino cupcake at Pizza Planet that was pretty tasty!

Well apparently the computer doesn't want me to post anything else tonight because it keeps refreshing the screen before I'm done with the post. Thus erasing everything that I have typed. So... To be continued tomorrow! I have retyped a post twice now, just to have it erased, it's late and I'm heading to bed. Night all!

Alright... who on the board would you take... and cant be significant other... lol

AND

If you got stuck on a ride which would you like and not like?

I have been to WDW 6 times going on 7 in December!!!!!! My first trip was in spring '95 with my HS marching band. It was such an awesome trip! We only got to visit 1 park that trip, but it definately made me want to come back for more! I must admit, when we were there this April and I saw the bands marching during the parades I got alittle geeked out! It brought back such wonderful memories. Even my old band classmates to this day still talk about that trip and how much fun we all had.

My next trip was in Oct '07 for our honeymoon!!! I had been trying for years to convince my DH, (I consider DH-short for Disney Husband ) that he would have fun and love WDW. He wasn't so convinced, but decided he would give it a shot for our honeymoon. He loved it and the rest is history!

Imagine my surprise when he suggested that we go to WDW for my 30th Bday! I was ecstatic!! So my next trip was in Dec '09. The parks were breathtaking! At this point we had discussed only going to WDW every couple years, so I wasn't expecting another trip for quite some time. But then at the end of fall of '10 I received a wonderful code in the mail and we chatted about going in '11.

Our next 2 trips came Aug '11 and Dec '11. We had only planned to do 1 trip in Dec, then found out his cousin was going for the first time and we decided to go with them! When we were there in Dec, I had to take advantage of the return offer in the room! So, I booked our Dec '12 trip just incase we could make it. Imagine my surprise when my DH said that for his birthday in April, he wanted to go back to WDW for a short trip!!!! So we did! April '12 and I'm looking forward to our Dec '12 trip!

And I have a only been to DL and CA once back in '02. My brother lives in Ca and I went out to visit him. He had season passes to DL and we went to DL 1 day and CA another day. It was nice to see DL and I would like to go back sometime. I would also like to do a cruise sometime as well.

I would have to say that I have 3!!!! There are just so many to choose from, it is so difficult because they all hold a special place in my heart!

The first is during our honeymoon trip, we were in Epcot over by UK. At this point, we didn't know much about WDW and were trying to cram 4 parks into 4 days. We didn't do much in the way of characters or even the little things. Our agenda was strictly to see/do as much as we could in that short time. We had gone behind the shops over by the tea garden and were sitting back there when we saw Pooh and Tigger come out. So we ventured into the store to see if we could get our pictures taken. We waited our turn in line and were next and then Pooh had to take a "Honey break". DH really wanted the picture with Tigger because he's his favorite. We didn't realize how the whole pictures with characters worked at that point, or that they would be right back. DH showed Tigger his tattoo and said, we have to have a picture with you, you are my favorite! To which Tigger bounced!!!!! They came back in a bit and we got our picture! To this day, I look at that picture and smile!

My second favorite memory is more just the feeling of how it feels to walk up to the doors of Wilderness Lodge and be greeted with Welcome Home!!!! Sometimes it makes me get teary eyed. It's one of my favorites because I know each time we go, we will be greeted with Welcome Home and it really does feel like we are coming home!

My third favorite memory would have to be this past Dec. we took our niece to WDW for the first time. She is 9 and was bouncing off the walls with excitement. I will never forget the first time we walked down Main Street toward the Castle. She grabbed my hand and we walked down together as I sang to her Walking Down the Middle of Main Street USA with them performing it right infront of her! She was amazed at the fact that I knew the words to the song they were singing. How did I do that? Lol.

I'm sorry that I haven't gotten much time on the computer. I have been looking forward to my spotlight all summer and now that it's my turn, I haven't had much time to even answer. This has been an extremely busy week for me and I am just plain exhausted. I had all these things that I wanted to chat about and pictures to post. I have decided to go back to school for my masters and this class is very time consuming. I would love to chat and answer these posted questions but also don't want to take from the next member spotlight. If you all wouldn't consider it intrusive on the next spotlight, then I will try to respond and post pics next week or the following week.

We look forward to hearing from you when you need a much deserved break. Good luck in school!

You guys made me smile!!!! I knew you would understand! I finally have a breather, phew. It has been 1 crazy month. I am so excited!!!! I booked our airfare for December so it is OFFICIAL!!!!! Woohoo! This is a much needed trip for us, and perhaps our last for awhile My program is 2 straight years with not very long breaks so not sure if we can squeeze any trips in during that time.

I would have to say that my favorite park is Epcot! It is such a different pace than MK. I love MK too and when I want to get my "Disney Fix" I want to head to MK. But when I want to just stroll along, look at the sights, try different things, I love Epcot for that. It's kind of funny because our first trip for our honeymoon we decided that we liked Epcot the least but still managed to spend the majority of our time there because we didn't have the whole transportation/lay of the land down yet. Epcot is usually where we spend the majority of our time each trip. I love to just stroll along WS and a stop in Mexico is an absolute must for us. We could spend hours in there and we have!!!! When we decide we want a little change of pace, we head over and catch Nemo or Soarin. This is the first year we did Flower and Garden and LOVED it!!!! I want to try Food and Wine next, just not sure when we will get the chance.

Sorry all you Tours fans I absolutely CANNOT do this ride. I get motion sickness really bad and simulators just plain kill me. I have tried Tours atleast 3 times over the years and each time, I am sorry that I did. The latest attempt was in Aug of last year because I wanted to see how they changed it. Sorry I did. I literally had to look at C3PO because I couldn't watch the screen and he was stationary. Can't even tell you what the changes look like. And I don't intend to find out. Luckily, I can still do Soarin, which I love! I do have a bit of trouble with the night scene and the cars/light because they are moving on the screen and so are we. Haven't tried Mission Space because i'm afraid it is going to be just like Tours.

Love her!!!!!!
