Hello all!

Just to give my friends here a quick update, I'm still in Israel, doing well.

I've settled in Tel Aviv. I work full time for an Internet company. I am also going to school 3 1/2 hours a day. Additionally, I've gotten approval for a big loan to start a business here!

I know the last time I posted here I wasn't doing well and was ready to cut my trip short. Now, it looks like I am here for the long term.

Maybe I'll visit the US again when Avatar Land and again Star Wars Land open.

By the way, SW:TFA will open in movie theaters here first before the US!

I'm glad to hear that you are doing well.

I don't mind that song but I loathe We Are The World.

I don't like that song either.

You better not let my little gut see that or you'll have a house guest LOL

No thanks, I'll just buy some lotion.

^^^^^This, I'll buy enough lotion for both of us

These are the ones they had for this year online. C&D is still available but Stitch isn't. I ordered mine right at Thanksgiving when they went on sale at half-price because 80% will sell out early as the price keeps dropping. (Learned that one year when not much was left.) Since you will be at WDW during the holidays there will be ornaments to buy (just not on sale) in the major stores. Or try the Christmas shop by Mama Melrose in DHS or the big one at DTD.

I love the chip and dale, so cute!

 

[Wrangler-Rick]

I was so looking forward to getting a night time shot of the theater without the BAH in the way....

Unfortunately there was a stage and a dance party in the way.

 

[Figgy1]

Back to the grind! More ornament making and then a walk!

 

[betty rose]

Was the pizza tasty? And no your pictures and trip report are not getting boring.

What she said.

 

[MOXOMUMD]

this movie was under-appreciated.
it had so many gold moments.

I absolutely agree. P&tF is a gem.

If you supply the air fare and food stamps !

 

[betty rose]

you're all lucky. I only had the opportunity of going to Disney until 2003 (disney world).
but then, I've had a great run so far.

2 WDW trips, 1 Disney Alaska Cruise, another WDW trip on my way in 20 days...
And I'm also hoping to get a cruise to the Caribbean as well.

I hope you get to full fill all your plans!

Good morning and happy Monday. It's 2 1/2 weeks until Christmas! The tree is up, at least we got that done. We're so far behind this year!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm also glad not to be making ADRs in the middle of all the holiday crazy! We've always gone in June before so ADR time and holiday prep went hand in hand. But as soon as the house is back to normal it will be time to finalize the list.

Good morning @figmentfan423. We are on schedule this year, even with unexpected tree limb removal, and cutting the limbs to 18 inches long. The garbage people will take them away, if we do this.

One more picture, it is a walking tour.

We listened to Christmas music on the way back home. This really put me in the Christmas spirit.

thats the irony of the whole thing.
The first thing they did when they finally took the hat down.. was set the darn frozen fest stage up.. and block the view again XD

 

[MOXOMUMD]

Yes. Drool. I always thought the Canadian version was closer to the German Sauerbraten gravy with that vinegar taste to it.

I was so disappointed in this. I've had much better.

That looks so delicious. Slurp.
