Lucy...I'm home!! Finally!!!

[EJ4Disney]

Hello all, dear friends,

I so miss you all already. Doug and I had the best time. Our smiles lasted all the way home. And it was a looooooooong way home. If it hadn't been the best 4 days in WDW with everyone, we might decide to never travel in Dec. again. We had such a hard time getting there. We drove through a raging blizzard to Omaha, (we had no business being out on the roads on Wed.) flight to Chicago was 1 hour late. We missed our flight to Orlando by 20 minutes. Had to stay overnight at the airport. Coming home was no better. Flight from Orlando was perfect. Was at our gate in Chicago when 10 minutes before boarding with no explaniation they cancelled our flight. Got rebooked at 8:00 p.m. so we spent 7 hours in the airport. YUCK!!! Got into Omaha finally at 10:30 p.m. to a complete ground blizzard. So we had to spend the night and didn't get home until about 4:00 on Tuesday afternoon.

But because of all of you ---- We WILL be back. Thank you all for the best time I have had in a long, long time. I laughed so much my sides still hurt. The friends I met and friends I saw again - you are so special to me. Each and everyone of you have a very special place in my heart.

All of the meets were great. Thanks to each of you for all of the time to put them together. And yes Margaret made it to each and every one of them. I told her no sleeping. She even managed to be nice in the morning. LOL

And just for the record. I had nothing to do with any "rolling". I AM the innocent one. Believe me.

Oh and Dave, BetsyAnn has some news for you. We got it all planned out on Sunday night at dinner.

Love to you all and THANKS!!
Mary Ann

Oh my MaryAnn, how I miss you already! Little did I know that the sweet seemingly so innocent woman from Nebraska was such a wild woman. :youRock: And Doug is a sweetheart to put up with us all.

I can't wait for next year!

Your friend,
The One and only innocent one!:angleCute:

Glad you are home in one piece El or I mean MA! ;) I used the same pharse - Laughed until my sides hurt!

[MargaretJ]

Innocent Ellen - ha! I don't think so, just look at this picture. Oh & the grapefruit story. Don't worry it will be detailed in my trip report along with a little bush story. Bwaaaaaaaa

Glad you finally made it home. I had a blast rooming with you and Doug. He was great to put up with us.

Welcome back Ellen! It was great fun seeing you again, and I'm glad you had fun with the 'bad girls'! ;)

So, what are you and BA up to? Enquiring minds WANT to know! :peri:

[Carrie]

What's up with cancelling flights? The same thing happened to me. I checked in and walked to the gate. At the gate they announced our flight was cancelled and didn't give any reason why. Luckily I only had to wait 2.5 hours for another flight, and it worked out well because Tyler napped in his stroller while we waited and slept through the first half of the flight. Then we landed in Pittsburgh and had to scrape an inch of ice off the car. I hope to spend more time with Taginators next MouseFest.

[Collette]

Well, that was more adventure than you needed!! It's what I worry about traveling from the north in the winter. Glad you and Doug are safely home!

It was certainly my good fortune to arrive at the bus stop when I did - meeting you and Margaret!!

Next MF I will listen to you - go...no sleep :lol:

I'm so glad we met!!

[BriarRose]

Oh yeah Ellen! What's a blizzard when you got friends to get too :D

I'm glad you are home safe and sound.

[ddoll]

Oh man, I think Geri and I need to hook up with you guys next year. You guys really had a blast being silly. (Sadly, we were missing three of our Wild Women this year so our trip was more subdued)

Think what we could do...TOGETHER! We could have a Wild Woman Gang!

[Bookwood]

I hope (if I can come next year) to be a Wild Woman too! (Guess I'll have to take a few day off after to catch up on sleep)

Meet you all was so great new friends and old friends just wonderful!

[Joe]

Sounds like you all had a great time. And Dave, be afraid, be very afraid :yikes: , I think they are scheming....
Ellen, sending warmer weather your way, up to 40 today.

Ellen, it was so wonderful to meet you and Doug...The Brown Derby is a highlight of MF for me too...if only we'd had a camera when you took a bite of that grapefruit!! I still laugh out loud when I think of it!

PLEASE sign me up as a wild woman for MF 2006!

Hello, Ellen. It sure sounds like you had a scary trip. I am glad that you and Doug made it home alright.

I don't remember your name or face, so I can't remember if I met you.

After reading all of these posts, now I find that there are two groups of "wild" ladies on the Tag.

Oh my goodness...lol.

I missed all of the wildness.

It sounds like you all had such a good time. Disney brings out the kid in all of us.

And I had so much fun, too.

Sincerely, Ray :)

[MargaretJ]

Hey Ray do you remember the 2 women who came up to you in Magic Kingdom while you were sitting next to Cinderella's Carrousel? That was Ellen & me. If you can't remember me I am the one who also lives in metro Atlanta & am very quiet!
