Trip Report The Tuvalu Chronicles ~ Chapter 25 *COMPLETED*

Welcome, welcome, welcome to my 25th trip report.

Over the past five years, I have loved chronicling my WDW adventures with fellow forum readers who share my Disney passion. Writing keeps the magic alive for me. Discussions that result from your comments are icing on the cake! I appreciate everyone who takes the time to read my posts. (And for those of you who have been following from the beginning ~ THANK YOU!!)

All my reports have been live, live-ish, or shortly-afterwards.....except one. In 2016 I wrote a retro TR detailing my first visit to the park that forever captivated my heart. You can read about it here. Or you can merely mock the photo below which is proof positive I cannot pull off wearing a hat.

Similar in style to last summer’s novel, this report will incorporate my June, July and August vacations. The ship has already sailed for a live report for June, but I may attempt some live updates in July/August. Or not.

Trip #1
Who: Tuvalu and Em
When: June 8-13, 2019
Where: Disney’s Wilderness Lodge

Did we meet the Wicked Queen? Who got shoved in the Haunted Mansion? Did the rain rain rain come down down down? Was there an attraction evac? Did one of us really cause a ride to shut down?

Answers to come!

(Special thanks to @krisri18 for another trip report title! )

Thanks for another great TR.

From the rocky shore on the coast of Maine (to prove that I have vacationed in other places! )

Your Flower Power outfit was so groovy and far out!!!

 

[Swissmiss]

I'm not sure if you're asking if you should trip report? Or if you should do 2 separate trip reports?

The first answer is YES definitely! The 2nd answer is do whatever makes you feel good!

Yes, please, please, pretty please do a TR.

Thanks for taking us with you! You know my answer! Love that picture!!

I would be so devastated if you did not do a report, for any trip. You got me through a few years of not going. We have decided to take the year off, taking both our moms to our precious, other home away from home- rather than Disney, so I won’t be back until late 2020 or 2021 when B and WDW both turn 50!
As much as I love Disney, being able to take both our moms to the beach, just them and the two of us beats it.

As always love your reports and hope to see ya again in a year or so! Love the throw back pic!

Loved following along, as always

Hope your decision for Christmas-season reporting is a “yes!”

 

[myhappyplace]

Loved it all, of course!! I understand the commitment it takes to do a TR, but am oh so hopeful you'll do them for your Christmas trips! I'm sure- if you're staying at your typical Christmas resort-- that we'll all love to see WL at Christmas And as Gigi says above, your reports help get the rest of us who don't have a future trip planned through!! But ultimately, do what is best for you

True Value!!!
Excellent trip report. It was missing one thing on August 26th. Now what was that?.....Oh, wait! It was me.
One day we will meet and maybe you can wear a hat. Or ears. Ohhhh! You would look amazing in ears!!!
Until then....

 

[RememberWhen]

Like any good novel, I really don’t want this one to be over! Looking forward to the sequels!

 

[Zipadeelady]

Thank you for taking us along on your trips. I know they are very time consuming and we all appreciate them so very much.

 

[MickeyCB]

Loved reading your TR! And really hope we bump into each other in a few weeks!
And did you see they are putting a gingerbread house at WL?! Hope it's built by the time we get there.

 

[Loco_driver]

I enjoyed following along once again. I look forward to your Christmas season trip report, should you decided to do any!

 

[ajrwdwgirl]

Fantastic report as always! I'm hoping that our trips will overlap at some point this coming year, it would be great to see you and Em again and maybe meet Woody!

 

[k8einwdw]

Another fantastic trip report! I so hope you do reports for your two Christmas trips, I’d love to live vicariously through you since I’ll be missing WDW this holiday season...to go to Disneyland instead (I know, poor me ). Your trip reports are always so well written, it makes me feel like I’m really there!

 

[Megbutnotmegan]

Thank you for sharing your trips with all of us You keep me in a magical state of mind between my trips.

 

[Nunu]

Thank you for sharing your Disney journeys with all of us, I enjoyed every single post.
Your TR's are welcoming, fun and informative. Your dedication shows, and is appreciated. You take us with you, and your loved ones, every time you visit and report. It's amazing to me, how you respond to every single comment and remember our particular tastes and quirks

Meeting you was such a pleasure, it felt very "Shirley Status" to me! I look forward for our paths to cross again.

 

[Laura Loves Tigger]

I really enjoyed reading about your summer adventures! Enjoy your upcoming Christmas trips! It is my favorite time in the World!

 

[Disney Loving Swede]

We just landed tonight from our trip and I had to come check out the boards. I hope you write a new trip report to get me through my Disney withdrawal. Thanks as always for your reports!!

 

[krisri18]

I hope there will be another trip report (or two) coming soon! I'm all for A Very Tuvalu Christmas!

 

[Katiekitten]

I've loved every page of your report! I also hope there will be another trip report coming our way, they defiantly make not been in Disney so much easier!
