My son gets to go to DisneyWorld this summer.
My ex-girlfriend whom I've been in a relationship with for 18 years (we started out as best friends in high school) decided a couple months ago that I wasn't the one she wanted to be with & called it quits. A mere 2 weeks later she dropped the bomb on me that she's taking our son to Disney with her family. A once in a lifetime experience and I don't get to be there. Happiest place on Earth my butt!

Connie,
Tell Sue we miss her!!!
OC, sorry to hear that you aren't going, but I am happy for your son. My sisters live near Disneyland and keep after me to go to California to visit. My nephew graduated USC film school next May, and I will be there - dunno if I will visit Mickey or not.

OC.. That is terrible.. Im so sorry. I Had not clue you have been going through all that. If we can help in anyway.. speak up.. even if it's just to vent. As for us.. I FINALLY found a signal here to get online... outside. luckily it's beautiful out.. good thing cause I heard we had snow in Boise yesterday! Have about 20 mins before we head out to catch the bus for Medieval Times.. We are EXHAUSTED Yesterday was awesome.. 12 hours and TWENTY rides.. I don't know what Angel was watching over us but we NEVER had to wait more than a few minutes for a ride.. Im talking 5 when I say a few.. it was absolutely amazing.. we hit every big ride with NO wait.. and we kept finding ourselves in exactly the right place at exactly the right time.. Today Katie was done by 2 and wanted to take a break.. I think from morning till two we made maybe 3-4 rides... so that tells you how truly amazing day one was! Soaring over Cali is so far my favorite (will never replace Pirates in my heart) but it was reallly cool. Some Disney today.. Some DCA today and probably both again tomorrow. The only downer was that we did go back and fight the crowds last night to see the fireworks and they were cancelled because of winds..

Forgot to mention.. Dinner with Sue didn't pan out.. When we got to SLC we found out our plane was delayed almost two hours.. so instead of getting here around 7 or 730 we didn't make it until almost 10.. sigh.. We have been texting though.. Louis. will tell her you miss her.. for some reason when she tries to log into itsfree she is getting virus warnings. I've tried to figure out what is happening to her but with no luck.. If you have any ideas.. pm me

I apologize Connie. I didn't intend to put a downer on your thread. It's been a rough couple months.

Glad to hear you are having fun! My DD's friend stopped by the other day for about 15 minutes and had another friend who waited in the car. Later she told my DD that it must be bad to live in an area with such poor signal strength, because her friend couldn't log onto any of the weak public networks her laptop picked up, and the only strong signal was encrypted. That's when DD told her that the encrypted network was ours...

I wouldn't have minded no signal or a weak signal if they hadn't advertised free wifi... ickkk luckily it is beautiful outside and I don't mind sitting out here with my drink and typing away the few free minutes I get..
OC.. no damper.. I just feel bad.. I know how tough it is.. If your son does get to go.. be SURE to tell her to take him to the it's a bug life show... OMG.. it is the MOST amazing 3d show I have EVER seen... It was like I was 5 years old and experiencing the magic of disneyland for the first time... incredible!
We got Katie on grizzly river run today... she hasn't wanted to go the entire time... Halfway through the ride she was laughing her head off and exclaiming it was the best ride ever and she wanted to stay on... haha

Glad your family is having so much fun. I was wondering what had happened to Heavenly. My son is going to prom at a restaurant in Downtown Disney this Sat. I get to drive and have to figure out something to do with my 14yo daughter while I wait for them. Not going to Disney too much money. I am sure we will figure something out!
Have a safe flight back

I miss Disneyland. I know what it's like with no lines- positively the best time to go. I'm so glad to hear that you are having such a great time. Oh- Soaring Over California. The smells when you go over the orange orchards... yuuuuummmmy.

Oh Katie, I didn't realize but should have realized that you lived around there or I would have tried to meet up with you too! Maybe you and Sue should get together? I would assume you have probably already been to downtown disney if you live that close but I could easily kill a couple of hours just window shopping in downtown disney!
I think that is the thing that surprised me the most.. last night we closed DL (10pm) and walking through downtown disney ALL of the stores immediately closed.. I couldn't believe they weren't taking advantage of that last hour of traffic! The only store that was open was the disney store.. we wanted to buy more candy at Marcelines.. but like all the others.. closed immediately.. what a waste of possible revenue!
