JanJ and KenJ's January 2014 Trip Report

Well, we're currently booked for the 3rd week of Sept. but are thinking of switching to the same time as last year to get the labor day holiday off so one less vacation day to use up at work.

Jan is waiting for a reply email from her office to see if that week is available to take vacation. Should know tomorrow morning.

We LOVED the lack of crowds that week!

We should definitely meet up if we end up here at the same time.

I think there is a three day cooling off period for TS sales, so the guide had no choice but reverse the sale.

That's right. It's apparently a Florida law for all real estate contracts. In fact, the cool off period is 10 days according to our documents. It used to be 15 at one point from what I've read online. I could have waited till we got home but wanted to take care of it while I was still here (partly for just peace of mind). Even though he had to reverse it, I was glad I didn't get a further pitch.

It's a cool and misty night here at the Boardwalk.

Now, I call this MEEN. You know, the Magical Express Eviction Notice. Woke up to find it under our door this morning. It basically says we have one day to pack our bags and "GIT"!

Oh well, just have to enjoy this last day here as much as possible.

It warms my heart to see the lighthouse lit up.

Indeed! It looked really nice last night especially with the mist. And quite appropriate too.

Here's a close up for you Colonel.

LOL. It really does slap you back to reality. I've seen on other Disney forums, the bus back to the airport being called the "Tragical Express".

Have a great last day.

Yay! Definitely!

Congrats on getting the maintenance team moving on the lighthouse, Colonel!

Looks like we'll see you in September Allie!

We're now booked August 30 to September 7.

After looking at your photos, I now know why the Floridian is called Grand...If I was spotted walking around in here,the dream police would be ushering me out...LOL...Reminds me of staying one night at a 7 star hotel in Dubai ( present from a very rich relative ) Sitting in the Sheiks palace sipping a glass of free bubbly,my DW whispers in my ear.." Everyone here looks like millionaires " ...I whispered back.." I know,let's try and blend in." LOL..

Hahaha! "Tragical Express"

Yes, that describes it well.

Yes, the GF certainly can be a stuffy place with lots of noses taped to foreheads. You know the type...

I remember once being on an elevator there with my brother, his wife and my 2 nieces. There was also a couple on the elevator that were clearly "elite" and you could tell from their body language they were NOT happy to have "peasants" sharing the elevator with them.

The class system is indeed alive and well even in this present day.

I always say that those individuals who have their noses so far up in the air that should they get caught in a downpour would drown.

Well, not a lot of pics from today either. It's been cool and rainy all day. Just had my iPhone with me as I don't like toting my main camera around in rain.

We were up at MK and here is the scene just outside of HM.

And here's that wonderful crane that is at least folded up for the day.

I discovered these tasty treats during this trip. They've quickly become one of my favourite things to eat here at WDW.

Besides, an apple a day is good for you right?

And, it's always a good idea to keep an eye on your apple so...

Hahaha! And I believe they would if it weren't for their golf umbrellas.

I've only tried a couple of cupcakes while at WDW. Every year I say I'm going to try more and every year I'm too full from meals on the dining plan that I never do. When I go next month, I won't have the dining plan so I'm going to skip dessert at the restaurant and try more cupcakes.

Safe travels tomorrow!

Hey, thanks Spook! Not looking forward to going back to winter again.

One last look at the view across the lake as we close the curtains in our room and on our vacation. See you again in September WDW.

I'm sorry this TR is coming to an end. Your photos are great.

Have a safe drive home from Pearson - you know what you are flying into.

Thanks for taking us along, Jan & Ken! It really helps to fill the between-trips void
