Oh no, not a typo just a different way of saying being in line! I thought maybe it was a New York thing, lol, I like it, very chic way to say it! I may steal, haha! Love Chunkism, very cleverHaha, my typos are becoming a thing apparently, LOL. I'll just develop my own language. We'll call it Chunkism.
I know, I love to throw away junk mail, except now I will definitely be more careful! I hope!!

Have been thinking about you and your family, so sorry for your loss! Love seeing all of yours and Chunkysis’s pictures of your favorite Dad memories!
It sure was a miracle and good timing!!Yikes, that would have been a horrible situation with the gift cards! Glad it all worked out- a Christmas miracle!
Haha I'm going to have to write a Chunkism dictionary one day then!
Thank you so much Caroline, that is very sweet
When I left off, Andi and I had returned to GF. We had a lazy afternoon, watching Cars and dozing off in the room. We, slowly, got up and ready for MK. We had FP+ this evening for Splash, Big Thunder, and Peter Pan. I did feel like I had lead in my shoes and a bowling ball in my stomach
I had one more FP and it is my all time favorite dark ride so I wasn’t skipping that. I headed to PPF and was on fairly quickly with my FP. I enjoyed this ride as usual!
Oh my goodness, this was a critical error on the part of a Disney veteran! Andi would have teased me for sure! It was almost time for HEA and it was an actual nightmare to get out of the park. I literally thought I was going to get swallowed up by the people around me! I felt panicked several times, yuck!! I did make it out and got a picture to show I was still in one piece!
While I was on the monorail I got a message from Melinda @pepperandchips here on th boards. She was in Tomorrow Land and hoping we could meet up, I was so bummed I had left the park and literally fought for my life to get out. I would have loved to meet her! I just didn’t have it in me to go back at that time. I really thought about just staying on the monorail for the full loop but I was just pulling in to GF and decided to call it a night! Melinda I would have loved to meet you and I am so happy I will get the chance in May!!
Hello Everyone!
Before I respond to replies, I wanted to post about my “almost disastrous” day!
I have been buying Disney gift cards from BJ’s Wholesale club. We don’t have one in our area so I order online. I have found some great deals, I have found up to 7-8% off the cards depending on the denominations. I had one more pack of $450.00 worth of cards coming in the mail.
I was going through my emails on Sunday and saw the notification of shipment so I clicked on the tracking and noticed the cards had been delivered on 12/10.I had absolutely no recollection of seeing the package in the mailbox. I asked my husband if he had any mail in his car, he says no, why?? I tell him and he is like oh no! I go out to my car and look around to see if the envelope had fell under a seat but no luck! My heart is sinking, this is a lot of Disney money to lose.
My husband starts lecturing me about asking for a signature when getting that much money in the mail, probably true but I had already gotten $1050 in the mail and no problems! I start looking up the customer service number at BJ’s to call, I am sitting on hold and my husband comes in from outside with the package!!He found it in the garbage, I accidentally threw away 450.00 of Disney money
He just gives me the look and tells me I owe him, haha! I was so relieved! What makes this even more important is our garbage is picked up Monday morning! If I wouldn’t have thought to check that email on Sunday, the gift cards would have been gone forever! So happy that didn’t happen. Lesson learned! The scary thing is I have no recollection of throwing that package out with the junk mail, yikes! Thank goodness I am on vacation now until next week!!
I want to thank everyone for reading and continuing to comment on my TR! Since I am on vacation I hope to finish up my report soon.
Have a wonderful day everyone!!
We did wait a total of 1 hour to meet Bolt, a new record of waiting for us. Andi did not complain at all, she was in a good mood and wanted to see Bolt 
Bolt was not signing autographs which did make sense, the wait would have been double if he was. We did get a signature something, for the life of me I can’t remember if it was a dog paw, it is upstairs and I don’t feel like going to get it Anyhow it was pre signed!
More humid again and full on sun this morning! We decided to eat somewhere different today and we tried Restaurantosaurus. It was relatively early for lunch and the place was not to packed. It was still very busy, I sent Andi to find a table and I ordered our meal. We decided to share the Bacon Cheese Burger Combo, this was the burger with fries, fountain drink, and brownie dessert. This was a good deal for splitting and plenty of food for the two of us. The picture is less than great, however this was really good. The burger was actually very fresh for a Disney burger, there is a fixing bar here and this was nice to load up the burger. The fries and brownie dessert also very good! Not bad since there are so many good places to eat in AK! We enjoyed the air conditioning and resting up a little before going back out in the heat.
Obviously Kevin was not working for us!
I did feel like I had lead in my shoes and a bowling ball in my stomach
I'm sure Andi's used to that. I rarely have my named spelled right either since there are so many ways to spell Me[a]g[h]an[n]. You really do hear some of the craziest things in queue lines.Andi was not feeling the best after Splash, she had a headache. I think the heat and long days were getting to my sarcastic little girl!
Cute!! I think I remember you saying something about an armadillo when I posted about seeing one during our Animal Kingdom photo shoot. They're kinda funny little guys, and very foreign to use northerners! Hopefully it was something cute like that, and not a snake or gator or something. I start looking up the customer service number at BJ’s to call, I am sitting on hold and my husband comes in from outside with the package!!
This sounds like something I would do.
Yay for PhotoPass day! Of course if you remember my TR for this day, we did stand in line before he started to meet but bailed out. The line seemed very long at the very start, and wow was it hot that day!
Long wait? Caroline, hold my beer.
Oh cool, I had no idea there was an entrance to Pandora there.
Hmmm...yeah, something doesn't seem right.
He found it in the garbage, I accidentally threw away 450.00 of Disney money
Oh my gosh!! I have never been so relieved to see a sentence in my whole life after reading what happened. So glad it was found!!
He found it in the garbage, I accidentally threw away 450.00 of Disney money
to your husband - that was a close call with the garbage pick up the next day! But so happy you found that money in the nick of time!!!Yes! I sure hope so... I think that would be amazing
Yes! It really is a great time to go... and bonus! Dismeet!
I love her, she is so beautiful and elegant
Well worth the wait - what a cute photo!
I agree, we stayed full and felt blah all day! The food was very good but heavy!
Thank you, so fun to meet people from the boards.
For sure, both times are crazy!You were actually smart to leave before HEA…the crowd afterwards would have been much worse
I felt sick to my stomach, thinking those cards were gone, yikes!
Thank you, we had a fun morning in AK
Yay for Christmas break! When are you going to Disney? I think you have a trip coming up.Hi, Caroline! I'm off for Christmas now, so I was just getting caught up on your last few updates.
Yes, we definitely start slowing down towards the end of the trip
It does help! We enjoy the refreshers!
Haha! So true, about 90% of the time Andi is spelled wrong! I could see that with your name also!Haha they almost got it right!
Free entertainment right? Lol!
My bubble stayed intact, deflated a little some days!
The heat can really sneak up on you
I’m pretty sure it was an armadillo or possibly a raccoon!
It was not a good feeling when I saw the shipping info, yikes!Oh my goodness!! What a close call!!
Me too, I have January all paid for and spending money ready to go with all my gift cards!
It sure does, Disney time flies!
Disney is doing something’s I don’t like, photo booths for some characters, I hope the preprinted autographs aren’t going to become a normal all the time! We have seen them more and more!
It was a nice time at AK, love this park!
