Trip Report JenniferS Is Live - 9/7/16 - 9/17/16

Hi, my name is JenniferS, and I am a Disneyholic. I have been accused of being a Pixie Dust snorter. I've been accused of worse, so no biggie.

Once we get home from a Disney trip, I am always in a bit of a funk, and never really up to doing a proper trip report. For those of you who know me, I generally post live over in Chit Chat somewhere. This is my first dedicated live trip report in the actual Trip Report Thread.

The cast:
Me. JenniferS. Just turned 49. Honestly friends, I don't know how that happened. I still feel 27. But, my passport and driver's licence insist I was born in 1967, and I have two 20-something sons, so it must be true.

This is me, on my way to work this morning. All smiles, because this is my last day of work for almost two weeks!

And this is Hubby. He is not on his way to work today, as he has been off work for 6 months. He is 48 years old and this is the first entire summer he has had off since he was 14. In 31 years together, this is only the second time I have seen him with a tan.

Goofy is his favourite character.

And last year, he was obsessed with this over-sized "Stitchie". There was no room in our luggage, but this year, I am determined to buy it for him, and bring it home by any means necessary. Actually, I'm just going to bring our big SouthWest duffel bag, and pay for an extra bag coming home.

This will be our first Disney trip, just the two of us, since 1992! :jawdrop:

Okay, that's the Who.
Coming up next - the Where.

Somebody didn't shave.

All you can see of me are my fingers holding on to Hubby's arm.
We will definitely be going back here.
Will I hide and quiver like a loser again? Probably.
But hey, I am NOT afraid of the StormTroopers.

Yes, Stand-by is 20 minutes!

BTW - I was blue. In all fairness though, Hubby's red trigger was snagged for at least the last two rounds. That being said, I generally win at Midway Mania, and get my behind handed to me at Buzz.

The show is running late, and a lady just pushed her way (and her kids) right in front of me.

I very gently tapped her shoulder and said, "ummmm, no".

She moved.

Seriously, I've been here for 45 mins. I let the kids stay, if that makes you hate me any less.

Good for you! The rudeness of people at parades never ceases to amaze me. :facepalm:

I'm glad you posted this twice because it deserved 2 likes.

Nah, I chickened out. Just took the pics.

Kylo Ren was smart enough to decline Hubby's preferred back to back pose.

Probably wise not to turn your back on your enemy.

Only downside today, he did not speak.
Last time, the voice/voice changer was spot on.
Today, just arm and hand gestures. :(

The rain and Hubby's wet shoes have chased us out.

Except for using our FP's for Midway Mania, and watching the Galaxy March and the Star Wars Runway Show, we did not, in any way, shape or form, stick to the schedule.

Had a great day anyway!
Also finished my shopping for the boys' Christmas gifts, and got Ski a cool stocking stuffer.

If we were driving ....

I got this for me though.

Before leaving DHS, we considered our dining options. Starring Rolls was packed and soaked.
Min & Bill's isn't real food. ABC Commissary wasn't even up for consideration. We trekked over to the Backlot Express, but Hubby was singularly unimpressed with the menu.

"We've got way better food back at the hotel."
That we do!

I got the Philly steak and cheese.
Given the choice between American, Pepper Jack, Provolone, or Swiss, I chose what was behind Curtain #3.

This was delicious. I ate about half, along with four wedges.

Holy sweetness Batman. Carrot cake was not the "healthier" choice.

You'll never, in a million years guess what Hubby got! :joyfull:
