Trip Report The “No Trip” Trip Report *COMPLETED*

There are pre-trip reports.

There are trip reports.

I’d like to welcome you to what I believe might be the first “No Trip” trip report.

My name is Tuvalu. Ok, that’s not my real name (it’s not “Shirley” either ) but it’s how I’m known here on WDWMagic. For the past six years I have contributed a lot of trip reports in this forum. A lot! Along the way I have met so many wonderful people and made new friends, some of whom I have had the privilege of meeting in person. Honestly the reason why I write is for you, the reader, because I cherish our interactions. (Getting to re-live my trip is just a bonus!)

My husband Woody, my daughter Em and I were supposed to be leaving for our Spring Break trip to WDW tomorrow. Of course we are sad we cannot go (and our doing our part to keep ourselves and others safe) but remain confident we WILL get to go back sometime in the future.

I had been contemplating going “live” for our trip. Woody and Em are not fans of my reporting “live” since my attention is diverted from enjoying vacation with them. However this idea for a “No Trip” trip report came straight from Woody himself!

So for the next week, if you‘d like to Journey into My Imagination and read about what could have been, I’ll be here.

Many thanks to her for keeping our Disney dreams alive during this pandemic! ❤

It was so fun getting to meet you, and “chick chat” for a bit! I’m now the proud recipient of an ultra-rare, special edition Tuvalu card!

Very stylish! (P.S.: I'm into the mask thing -- you don't have to bother putting on makeup anymore in the morning, because no one can see your face anyway! )

Oh, I'm jealous!! I don't have ANY masks, can't find any in the stores and not creative to make them myself. I have ordered the Mickey ones from Disney though and plan to wear them when I go out shopping and also maybe to DW in October.

Very cute masks, I like them all. (Great job @k8einwdw !)

You're all set in case masks are to be required for your next WDW visit.

This couple:

@amjt660 (you may know him as Max....or Drew....or Clarence....he’s a man with many pseudonyms) and his lovely wife Tricia.

Woody was going to initiate Tricia into the Magicians Spousal Support Group.

Max and I were going to try to “out snark” one another.

It would have been grand.

Now it’s just another disappointing cancellation.

Aww, that is really disappointing! I know you would have had an excellent time with them, as Brian and I did when we met up with them in Canada!

Well, that's just too good of a meet up to not happen! It's in the stars and I'm looking forward to it!

Aww man that would have been the best trip report!

 

[myhappyplace]

I would have LOVED to read about that interaction!!

I think you should reschedule the meet-up.

Thank you all for the kind words and sentiments

Yes - Tu and Max together at Disney - it would have been epic - the latest version of the Dream Team!!

I think Barney will agree that when it finally does happen..,,
