This is our first attempt at a trip report. I'm not quite sure how many days it will take to post our trip but I am sure that it will take numerous posts with pictures.
Sunday December 9th 2012 - It's way too early to wake up at 4 am but for WDW it is worth it. We get to Akron Canton Airport by 6 am for our 7:15 flight. We already have our boarding passes printed and just have to drop off our checked bag and get through security which is a breeze. Good thing that we have plenty of time for our flight because we boarded and took off by 7am. Hooray for early arrivals. Flight is smooth and we land in Orlando at 9:10. Abby heads right to the Disney store for her first pin trade opportunity. We then go to the Magical Express for our ride to WL. We arrive at WL and find a longer than normal line at the check in desk. Checked in with a room ready right away is always great. Guest rooms at WL have been upgrade to RFDI entry with the key to the world card. We dropped our carryons in our room in the north wing and head to Roaring Fork for a quick serve of angus bacon cheese burgers before heading out to Epcot. In Epcot by 12:15 and get fast passes for Test Track. More on that later. We walk around trying to figure out what to do first. We decide to head over to France so Abby can get the Grey Goose Slushy so she can check it off her bucket list. I'm happy with a Yuengling draft. We walk around World Showcase while she checks for more pin trading. Stop by the Koi pond in Japan for more pictures and inspiration to a hopeful upgrade of our Koi pond in the future. Finding ourselves in Mexico it's definately time for a 3 Caballeros ride. This ride is always fun for me however I can't believe JeffC didn't find it until his last visit. LOL Next is a visit to Nemo and the aquarium. Check on standby line for Soarin but at 90 minutes I am not willing to wait and fast passes are all gone which I already figured as much. By this time it's around 4:30 and our Fast Passes for TT is 6:45 but the cappachino caramel cupcake at Pizza Planet in HS is calling to me so we decide to give our Fast Passes to a nice younger couple and head out by boat to HS. Sorry Mase but no new report on TT today. Once in HS we check out a few shops to see the new merchandise and go to Pizza Planet for pepperoni pizza, salad and that sweet cupcake. We noticed the wait time for the new POTC attraction was long on our way to Pizza Planet so we head back over there and find a short line. We love the POTC movies and were looking forward to check out this attraction but after it was over we both looked at each other and said is that all there is. Really disappointing and I second the comments of angels444 on another post from this great site. It's finally time for the dancing lights which I have been waiting for all day. It's a must do for my first night at xmas time. I can't get enough of the lights and this year is awesome. I'll attach some pics I took this year. It's getting late and we have been going all day so we head back to WL for some rest because tomorrow is another day.



I decided to try the Lemonade one, instead of the orange. I figured I would wait on the orange until later. I also decided to play a round of Stoopid Shoes. And let me tell you, Epcot is prime Stoopid Shoe territory. Lol.
I have some pics to post too, but we are having trouble getting the pics to post. Not sure if it's the site, our connection or what. All pics are way under the 5MB limit. Not sure if there is a post on here or not, but would like to know all the ins and outs of Stoopid Shoes. Kev and I disagree on what classifies as a Stoopid Shoe.
Not sure Sean wanted to admit to knowing me at that point! 





I tried twice and pizza planet was closed both times
