That was the week that was - May 2002 – PRELIM

Okay just to fill everyone in:

This was a trip that was booked only 10 weeks prior to departure. My new boyfriend decided that I needed a good holiday and wanted to take me to the Yacht Club. Obviously I protested at the cost and insisted that we only go for a week (to make me feel better of course….as I was not paying…….yes I know STUPID GIRL !!!!). So said boyfriend (Paul) booked the trip through BA and he got some discount as he used some of his air miles. I proceeded to tell him that I was really excited about flying and I loved getting those little food trays (oh well didn’t take me that long to get onto the subject of grub!) and that I loved making sure my tray was the neatest after devouring all the food when Paul told me that he had upgraded us to Club. Well knock me down with a feather I wasn’t expecting that! Again I did the “gosh that must have been expensive and really you shouldn’t have…….. but as Donald would say ‘ “boy oh boy” I’m so glad that you did.’

Paul had been to Orlando about 6 times in the last 10 years staying most recently in 2000 at the Beach Club and then he went on Disney Magic. I have stayed on I-Drive a previous 4 times since 1996 but never on-site so I was a tad excited. I was really looking forward to getting into the parks early……oh no wait a minute ……WDW doesn’t do EE anymore :( oh well that’s just bloomin’ typical, the one time I get to stay on site and EE had been pulled. But that’s OK at least I’ll get to do E-ride night……….HELLO??!!! ……..the E-ride nights for May have been pulled/cancelled/whatever!!! ….…….. sorry Mr Eisner…. the perk of staying on site is ? ………..someone?……… anyone?????…….. Err you sir with your Mickey Mouse mouse pad???? (mumble, mumble, mumble at his screen)……………… Yes sir, that’s right, the caravan of characters 3 times a week at your resort (as Charlie Brown would say “oh good grief”) …… of course!!! coz it’s NOT like I’m gonna see them in the parks every day!!!! I know I sound cynical and disappointed in Disney here but I was just so looking forward to some good perks of staying on-site ………

……..well kick off your shoes guys and gals and read the rest of my reports coz in the end I was not disappointed.


P.S. Did I mention that they may take a while to be published.....nothing like a good bit of suspense......don't you think??;) ;)
 
OK thats enough ***** footing around now!

We need those reports just immediately!!

Whoops! Seems I tried to use a naughty word. Sorry everyone.
 
Well, I can <b>quite</b> understand your disappointment at being told you might get to meet a few characters coming off a bus instead of EE and E nights when staying on-site, but.....

..........Club seats on BA?????? the Yacht Club at WDW?????? You're not hoping for too much sympathy are you? ;) :rolleyes:

Looking forward to hearing more!
 


Ok, so no EE or E-Nights, but come on Sam, you've got the Yacht Club and Club Class, think that kind of makes up for it doesn't it?! ;)

Looking forward to hearing all about it!

C'mon then, Sam - I keep checking and these reports aren't filed yet!!!

:p
 
Can't wait to read the reports Sam!

I do sympathise over the loss of EE and E ride nights though, especially as you were looking forward to them.
