Trip Report Did someone spit on me... or is it raining? May/June 2018

Hello and Welcome!!!

Yes friends, unfortunately (but fortunately) I am back from my 3rd and final trip of 2018... I had to make sure my annual pass went to good use ;)

This trip was amazing and I'm so glad I was able to go back... but it left me wanting MORE!!!! More time, more Disney, more park days... TAKE ME BACK, ALREADY!!!

Since I've been home I've been working 5 days a week at my job, 30 hours a week... not enjoying my summer so far. But hey, a girl has to save for her next Disney adventure!

Daniel (who is not featured in this TR) also has landed himself a big boy job for the summer - which will turn over into an internship in the fall! They've even offered to hold his position for when he graduates next spring! :joyfull::joyfull::joyfull: I'm so happy for him and in fact he is working his last shift at his old job right now!

Enough of the boring, real life details... I know you all want to hear about this trip! So on with the show!!

To recap ---

WHO: Myself (Becca, 20) and my mom, Lynn (older than me ;) )
WHEN: May 30th - June 3rd, 2018
WHERE: Port Orleans French Quarter
WHY: A mother-daughter adventure!

Before I start the recent photos... I just found this one from like 2010 (?) so I was like 11-12... and LOL

You had me at Buffalo airport. I went to school near Buffalo (St Bonaventure) and took many flights in and out of there

I hear you on the feet thing. Always bring extra socks with me for the room. Lately I’ve noticed people taking their shoes off at movies, especially with the reclining seats. Gross I don’t want to sit where your barefoot was🤮

Your pictures are gorgeous
Wow how cool! Lots of my friends go to St. Bonaventure! Thank you :joyfull:

Enjoying your report!
Thank you!! :happy:

After Big Thunder, we decided to grab a snack and head to the hub since HEA was starting in a short amount of time

I love the story behind this tree & the details in the shutters! I read in @prfctlyximprct 's TR once that they used to hang shutters with leather which caused them to "sag" a little bit!

We grabbed a pretzel & some drinks - the air was so thick and still... we were already sweating!

While we were waiting we met this great couple who just got married and were honeymooning! So sweet :inlove:

I knew school was going to keep me busy but I didn't know it'd be this crazy already!!

Finishing up at MK:


So I forgot we ended up going into Tomorrowland to ride the Speedway and then back to ride the Barnstormer. After that we headed into the Emporium and then we left!

We woke up extra early so we could try and ride FoP.

While we were in line we were talking with this really nice woman who comes to Disney all the time with her nephew! She said he's getting to that age though where its "not cool". I told her I could pretend to be her nephew :hilarious:

They had CMs reigning us in and preventing people from running and cutting. I was shocked at how organized this chaos really was!
Next - more AK!

Still so weird to me that they hand these out...

We actually went upstairs which I had never done before! It was super exciting... how lame of me :hilarious:

Since we did standby we hoped to see the lab for once but we didn't. Guess there's always a next time huh!

As usual it was amazing and FoP continues to be the best ride I've ever been on!

Mom took a quick bathroom break and we decided to go on Navi River since the wait time wasn't that long. FoP ended up being about 30 -40 minutes from start to finish, but since the park wasn't open to everyone yet (it was an EMH morning) NRJ was only about a 15 minute wait.

So jealous you have something planned for March - I absolutely loved F&G - I will get back at that time of year again one day!
Your GJ was lovely as I said I would love to have done Disney with my nan but alas it was not meant to be - cherish those moments together.

And I know your busy but time to finish this report!
