It is so hard to believe that this time a week ago I was still running around Main Street USA but alas, it is back to reality, for the next 407 days :fork:
I'll stop my pity party and get right down to reliving the magic!
The Who:
:wave: Here we are! Our cast is made of of myself, Nicole(27) and the Disney loving boyfriend of almost 3 years, Ryan (22). This was our 4th time in the world together since our 1 year anniversary trip in February 2010!
The When
September 28, 2011 - October 3, 2011
The Where
Disney's All Star Sports Resort
Now that we have all the basics out of the way..let's get moving!
September 28 2011
Ryan had class all afternoon and I had work until 2:45 so unfortunately it was a light flight out for us
. I would have loved to call out that day but I was already taking one day for the trip so I couldn't (School was closed 2 days for the Jewish holiday and your not "suppose" to call out before or after a long weekend...oh well!)
I had ants in my pants all day long. Partially because I am a terrible flyer and partially because I just wanted to be there already! I found myself checking the flight status over and over again. Low and behold, around noon it happened; flight status: DELAYED! For the time being it was only delayed for about 45 minutes so we stuck with the plan and headed to the airport around 4. I had done the on-line check in with Jet Blue and we had checked our bags and were through security in ab out 20 minutes, now all we had to do was wait.
We decided to grab something to eat at none other than..
THE EARL! Yes, we are lucky enough to have one in Newark Airport! I was really looking forward to a BLT but alas it wasn't even on the menu! I had the original with Cheddar not Swiss which was pretty good. Ryan devoured the BBQ chicken sandwich and than the rest of mine.
By the time we boarded it was about 7:40, I knew this was NOT good news. The flight was quick, 2 hours and 2 minutes...if only it had left on time! Happy to see this as I made my way through the terminal!
Bad new was by the time we landed it was after 10pm and we had to go get our own luggage before we made our way over to...
The other stinker about arriving late was that we were missing EMH's at Epcot..boo!
We hoped the bus and we were on our way! Before we knew it we were arriving at All Star Sports
I had also used online check in but because it was almost midnight there was only 1 person behind the desk and the family in front of us was having some trouble. We got a room in the Home Run Hotel section, we requested a king bed, but didn't get one and by this time all I wanted to do was sleep!! But who can sleep when there are so many things to take pictures of!
(Just a side note..I did take 525pictures on this trip)
