I'm so sorry about the bunny! Poor Marc will never live it down.

Also had I known you were going to be hunting husbands for your friends I would have put in a request!

I won't lie, when we were backwards it was a little scary for me looking around and realizing I could easily fall out.

I was never more glad to have gotten on a ride than when we worried about becoming Spaceship Earth pancakes. I laughed so hard on that ride that I cried it was wonderful...some great memories were made on that ride LOL!!!

Lunch was fantastic and Andrea was yummy to look at!! He was definitely quite the catch for C LOL I will happily make sure C gets an introduction!!

I was bummed with you about no bunnies LOL...I'm curious did you ever find a stuffed animal??????

Oh well I will just add you to the picture list for my next trip! Maybe I should come up with a questionnaire so I can match make with better results.

I haven't been too terrible about the bunny but you can bet that I will pull it out next time he tries to discourage me from buying something.

You know I never did find a stuffed animal. I couldn't find one that really spoke to me. Though I did want one of those little mermaid babies with the blanket but they were almost $20 and I just couldn't justify that!

Was it Andrea and not Andreas? I couldn't remember. I was distracted.

We did laugh pretty hard on Spaceship Earth. I think I got everything in there, did I miss anything? Though I know later we referred to another ride becoming pancakes...oh was it pirate pancakes? I can't remember. I just remember cracking myself up.

I made my way off of the bus and patiently waited for my carry-on luggage. Jen was walking towards me and I'm pretty sure I waved to her like a dork. I got my luggage and headed over to her. It was not awkward at all! It was so easy and we fell into a comfortable pattern with each other. At least I did, maybe Jen thought I was a giant weirdo but I was comfortable from the start.

I totally felt the exact same way when I first met Jen! It was like seeing a really great friend that I hadn't seen in a long time! She is just sooo great! Miss you Jenny!

Also a great place for tired kids to have a nap! This is what we discovered!

On behalf of Canadians all across this great Country I say "Thank You!" I saw the O Canada show for the first time in January and I even felt more patriotic than I had in a really long time! We ended up buying the Four Parks, one world Cd which includes the song and I tear up every time I listen to it!

[Happydog]

YAYAYYAYAYAYAY. I caught up. Whew! OH what fun posts, what a swell first day so far! I have to laugh though, there are so many self-confessed "criers" reading your TR!!! I cry at everything too! Comercials, you name it. No wonder we all love Disney.

AND the room looks great! Glad the travel part went off well, looking forward to hearing about the pins, if they came back, etc., and just loved reading about Chef's! We have lunch there, too! Can't wait!

Also laughed that so many readers were already counting light fixture photos!!!!

We are determined!

Your first day is shaping up despite the rain!!!!

[MegansMom]

I SO enjoyed that update!!!!! I have never been to Chefs, but it looked amazing......Love REMY!!!!

It's not quite been 24 hours since I checked for an update and ...phew three pages of reading. What a wonderful start to your trip. I love the pics of Remy. As far as the light fixture are concerned, I am totally going to lose the bet. I think you already posted at least 15 already!

I am really hoping to read a few more updates before I leave, cause I know I will never catch up again when I get home!

[MagicShell]

Remy looks amazing. I would love to see him, but I pretty much eat American food only. I am very picky. Maybe to see him I could branch out a little. We will see. By the way I love the title of your report. Pooh is one of my favorites and I love that scene with him and Christopher Robin. Too bad you had to deal with so much rain though.

[drakes]

I had never considered Chefs before either, however the food pics and having a window seat would be a nice way to break from the the parks.
I love your light fixtures, the photos are brilliant!

How disappointing about the bunny... I will share my new thought on toys, I am a pack rat - I save everything and anything that touches my heart or has a memory attached. I also do not like to throw anything out because I or someone paid good hard earned dollars for it. Well as I have moved there has been a need to scale down. I now take pictures of things I at one point couldn't part with. I now have the memory locked up in that photo. It's nice that you have the photo and that can still speak to you the way the little bunny did.

I have many pictures of Disney toys I'd love to have but couldn't justify (for example French Minnie - I love her little pink beret!) If I had the pic available here I'd post it.

Anyhooooo - thank you again for sharing your trip with us ! Loving it!!

[Jennifer48]

Every time you speak of rain, all I can do is sing in my head "oh the rain, rain, rain came down, down, down"

I'm so sorry your beloved bathrobed bunny was no where to be found.

Remy looks so cool!

[BellaSoleil]

Love it! Chef's looked awesome! I'm totally going there for lunch next time around.

[julezdisney]

That's so sad about the bunny! I was really hoping you would be able to get it this trip! I'm loving your report so far, LL- thanks for being so quick, it makes me soooo excited for my last 3 mos of waiting!
