Trip Report What Happens After the Girls Cruise…

I’m finally writing part 2!! Woo hoo!! It’s taken me forever to get to this part! So sorry for those that have waited patiently. Life, holidays and a few other trips slowed me down. This is part 2 of my girls’ cruise trip report. And while there is no actual cruising in this part, there are several girls’ cruisers, and a few other WDWMagic members, who make appearances!

Who: Me! And some other members! Like I said. Here I am with my roomie for the week @DisneyHeather:



When: September 13-18, 2013

What: 6 Nights at the Contemporary

Why: Well because it’s Disney of course. But also because of a work trip. The work trip followed the girls’ cruise by just a few days, so it seemed silly to go all the way home. Am I right?

I can't say much about meeting people on the internet. I meet Sean online while he was stationed in Japan, totaled my car on my way to meet him in NC, married him 3 years later and have been married for 12 years

It's def fun to meet those you know online.

Crowds were insane at the villains event! I waited 2.5 hours to meet one character, and 1.5 hours to just miss another one =\

I loved the fireworks though

More!

Coming now!

Day 3 – A day of nutrition, Epcot and the Studios

After my 2 am bedtime the night before, I slept until 9:30! 9:30! Crazy!

I called my hubby to wish him happy birthday! Yes, I was gone on his birthday. Bad wife!

I checked email and then went upstairs to meet everyone for breakfast.

It was a gorgeous day!

My standard breakfast for the rest of the trip – a Mickey waffle a la carte! Delicious.

Hello gorgeous!







We met up with some friends to say hi and then parted ways. I roamed for some picture taking:

I walked out the back on my way to the Studios:



I was starting to get hungry but I couldn’t decide what I wanted! Then inspiration struck. I may have come up with the perfect lunch. Ever. Here it is:



Amazing right?





I know you're all jealous.

After that I was back off to the Studios to meet Jenell and Suzanne again.

 

[Disneyfalcon]

I’m here!



We passed Phineas and Ferb and there was no line! We had to say hello!



When I told them I just wanted pictures of them alone, they hammed it up!

After that we rode Star Tours and I talked Jenell and Suzanne into watching American Idol with me. I’m sorry! I thoroughly enjoy it!! Every time!

American Idol –


There’s Jenell in the top left!



I always take a picture of the winner, just in case she shows up on the show! Nope, don’t remember seeing her.



Next we took a trip through the movies:

Dinner was in the Backlot Express and I’m not even sure I can tell what this is? A sandwich?





According to my very brief notes, I supplemented dinner with some popcorn to go and we went back to our rooms. Tomorrow my roomie arrives!

I would go to lunch with you any day! Chocolate, French fries and Coke Zero. That's like a Grand Slam!

You are my people.

Beautiful picture !

Thanks, Laurenciaa!

What were those chocolate things? And where can I get one or 6?

Oreo Bon Bons! Available when staying concierge at the Beach and Yacht Club or from the Marketplace in the fridge! Worth a trip!

 

[joanna71985]

Oh my word, Joanna! You may have beat Jess!

Yeah, it wasn't much fun (and something I don't think I would do again)

There’s Jenell in the top left!

I know him!

 

[angieandtrevor]

What a brilliant idea for lunch !!!

 

[Disneyfalcon]

I know him!

He's so funny, Joanna

What a brilliant idea for lunch !!!

I know, right?

Day 4 – My roomie comes!

Today I slept in again! But only until 8ish. Not too bad!

I went upstairs and had a waffle (of course). I was rocking the Girls' Cruise Tee today!



Then we all were off to the Studios! We were meeting up with friends today!





The bus is here!



Instagram on the bus!


Pam working her Magic Band like a pro:


Look up ahead! I see the Master Yodans and Marie! @Master Yoda was temporarily missing, but he caught up soon.


If you know Marie, you know she doesn’t visit the Studios (or Disney in general ) without going to see Mulch Sweat 'n Shears. So we all joined her.

 

[Disneyfalcon]

Showtime!

I needed to run over to World of Disney before too long, so I said goodbye for now and I was off!

Lunch was at Earls. Of course. The Caribbean Jerk Chicken is my favorite.





I popped into T-Rex.

I was loving these T-shirts :
