And I Think to Myself....What a Wonderful World with Magic Friends

[DisneyBunny]

"Crappy fake beach." Aww. :lol:


August of 2012, yes? :lookaroun:lol:

I wish!!! That would be awesome.


You're welcome!

Awww! :lol: You guys should take her to see the pink castle.

I was thinking of taking a solo trip out there sometime this summer... if Marc lets me.:lookaroun I've still got my free airfare to cash in!

I know! It's wonderful to get mail from Magic Friends! Speaking of which, who would like some mail from Hogsmeade this summer? I'll be able to send out stuff at the Owlery w/ a Hogsmeade postmark.

Ooooh! Oooh! Me! Me!! That's SOOOO cool!

Aweeeesome. Me please!

Can you send Butterbeer to us? :slurp:

I'll take one of those too!

2012?? That's not the near future! :lol:

Eh, close enough. :lol:

I've actually been looking into the Adventures by Disney. My brother is finally at an age where he can do the "older kid/adult" activities. I keep seeing commercials that show zip lining in Costa Rica...omg so much fun!

 

[DisneyBunny]

I have Kokomo stuck in my head now.

*looks outside to the cold and rain*

*wishes I was on a beach, fruity drink in hand, laying in the sun*

Me too. But I'll take the weather I'm having though!

BTW.. any chance of jetsetting to Vegas for a meet? It's the closest I'm going to be out your way! :lookaroun

Sorry, no. Butterbeer won't be bottled - but pumpkin juice supposedly will be. :slurp::slurp:

What?? Heresy, I say!

Those look like SO much fun, but they're WAY out of our price range. Even with the DVC points it's just not do-able.

Doooooo it!

 

[PotteryGal]

We're already forming a list of family/friends we'll be sending postcards to - I'm glad we'll be at WWoHP at least two days, it will take me a while to fill all these out. :lol:
I promised my sis today I would be taking pictures of everything - she's a huge HP geek like me.

I know - but it is good marketing on their part. If you want butterbeer, this will be the ONLY place you can have some.

Uh, YES!!!!

Oh, wait. This is happening soon, isn't it? I thought you meant summer, which would totally be doable. Poo.

Yeah, a little part of me died when I saw the prices. I haven't told my dad about that part, yet. :lookaroun

 

[DisneyBunny]

Doooooo it!

He's none too fond of me flying cross country and navigating a major city by myself. :lookaroun

Well, foo.

Uh, YES!!!!

Yeah.. like week after next. We're making a side trip to the Grand Canyon one day though. VERY excited about that :sohappy:

We looked to see how many DVC points it would take to go on one of those.... yeah. Even if we banked all we have, used our current year's points AND borrowed ahead ONE of us still couldn't go on the cool tours. We might be able to go on the one that goes to DC... oh. wait. Big whoopdie doo.

Hey Nicole, how's your Mom? :kiss:

Will they have walk around characters?

I'd probably attack Ron. :lookaroun

Interacting with Snape would be awesome.

But I'll be your tour guide/driver!

Hey Nicole, how's your Mom? :kiss:

Hi Christa! She's good, thanks.

 

[DisneyBunny]

Hey Nicole, how's your Mom? :kiss:

she's been on my thoughts too.

 

[DisneyBunny]

Ah! Loved the Grand Canyon.


:lol: Yeah, I saw the Los Angeles one. I'm like, ehhhhh noooo. :lol:

I saw your comment about Taylor Lautner...totally agree.


Hi Christa! She's good, thanks.

*maybe* if you met me there and didn't let me out of your sight the entire time.. but he's pretty overprotective like that. But I'm dying to get out there! So much to see! And I've got a free ticket! All I need is a hotel room and park tickets... and food... and lots of souvineers...:lookaroun

 

[PotteryGal]

I don't think any of the main characters will be walking around - the Forbidden Journey ride is supposed to show some 3-D hologram figures of Dumbledore, and Ron, Harry, and Hermione in the queue though. Interacting w/ Snape would be completely cool though.
I do think they're going to have people walking around as Hogwarts students though, also Beauxbaton's and Durmstrang's students too....
Seriously, though, how much do y'all want me telling you? I don't want to tell you all about it and spill the beans before you get to see it yourself. :shrug:

I can help with that part!

I don't mind spoilers. Unless it's something, idk, HUGE. I don't know exactly what's going to be in the WWoHP. But I'm always reading up on reviews, watching videos before I experience things, etc. I have zero patience. :lol:

 

[DisneyBunny]

just so you all know... I had to break open my last Rum Cake that I had saved because of that stupid song...

Mmmm... Banana flavored Tortuga Rum Cake...

 

[cdunbar]

Missy Nicole are you still gonna be my tour guide this summer for at least a day?

 

[DisneyBunny]

Oh, btw. SIL found out she's having a boy today! Three boys. I'm a wee bit sad it isn't a girl for Anastasia to play with. The whole dang family is all about basketball, golf, baseball etc when we all go over there. I was hoping for some more etrogen. Oh well. :shrug:

It sounds like this Forbidden Journey ride is going to do everything short of grabbing us by the scruff of the neck and shaking us :lookaroun, but as I said to my sis today, I don't care if I get off this ride and head straight for a trash can to :hurl:, I am riding it at least ONCE. :lol: I just want to soak it all in y'know?
Walking into Honeydukes and buying Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans? Or Zonko's to buy Sneakoscopes or Extendable Ears?? *Squeals like a kid at Christmas*
