Well, for starters, I absolutely LOVE travelling solo. I will have it no other way now. I loved everything about it (especially always getting a spot in a restaurant without ever waiting!).
I wish that there had never been a hurricane to ruin things, or spending 3 days stuck in a hotel with nothing to do, and that I had not been delayed getting home, or missing 12 hours of a critical hospital practicum, but all in all, the trip was fantastic.
I loved being able to hear all the sounds, doing what I wanted to do when I wanted to do them. I also loved the carefree way in which I took my time and still managed to get all the things done that I wanted to get done.
I got some great souvenires (thanks everyone for the tip on the Art of Disney, I got the best pictures) and I was not shy in asking people to take my photos. I ran into characteres everywhere without a single other person there (including Mickey) and got so many photos with characters. It was wonderful.
I did the passport at the World Pavilions and loved it. I tried to either buy a souvenire or taste the food at every pavilion and managed ok with that (ok, actually I did it).
I met a couple of other solo travellers while I was there and had a great t ime.
I survived the tropical storm that shut everything up for 3 days, and was really disappointed with the outcome of that whole thing, but also understood the concern of the citizens of Florida.
All in all, the trip was great, but I am also very happy to be home. I am planning another trip to WDW in 2006 to experience the new ride (The Himalayas???), plus do some things that I never had the chance to do.
Thanks everyone for the tips, and will continue to see you on this board.
