Peeps, restrooms & drunks. A hot, sweaty Asian TR-Pt.2 1/21-Under the sea

[jordanyosh]

We always seemed to be fine with the lines. Ha ha! Lucky for once, I guess. The food porn looks yummy and I love the baby J pics ...




DM .... aka "Flora" at Fairy Godmothers!

It was the only thing that my MOJO couldn't remedy the whole time we were there.

Baby J had her first experience with french fries at WDW.....

 

[coffeehousemom]

ok it has taken me 2 weeks to get thru the whole thing but this TR is hilarious!!


Jordan so funny I was about 10 pages back reading & laughing I look out my window of the coffeehouse & an entire mini van pulls up w/ PEEPS!! Wished I'd had a camera for ya.


Wendy we also went thru the whole "name" thing w/ our 2 kids DS went 14 hours before he had a name. Nurse came in & said we had to agree on one before midnight or else. We went w/ the N ending too we have a Morgan & Corwin .

Thoroughly enjoying all about your trip & love the "chatter" n between.

Will check back in often but now I have to make myself go do paperwork, orders for the week etc.

 

[SingingMom]

I actually like this song...call me crazy.



There was a different song.



COP is one of my favorite nap attractions.

COP is one of the attractions that brings back fond memories of growing up going to Disneyland.

Ok, good, I'm not crazy! I could have sworn there was another song.
(ok, so maybe it has nothing to do with my craziness, but I'm still glad I wasn't imagining it. )

Whenever we go on COP, DH always says, "Oh, good, nap time!"
I have a funny COP story coming up in my TR....

I need to pace myself better when I'm at WDW. Up late, up early is too much for me.

The food is good at CHH. The bread makes the sandwiches. We've travelled together several times so we know each other pretty well.

That's why we always schedule a "sleep in" day every few days! Plus the "Heavenly Beds" at the Dolphin are fabulous!!

Those lines at CHH look like the ones we found at Pinnochio's this trip.
We like the food at CHH, also. Nice change from lunch of "chicken fingers and burgers"!

I am always amazed when people read the whole TR.....

Unfortunate that you didn't have a camera

I have to re-read your TR.......

COP chairs are very comfortable.

If people couldn't already figure out, I'm a man of habit....so if I like a particular restaurant, I tend not to go anywhere else.

 

[snowbell]

So loving your trip report. That line is just CRAZY!!!! I usually make sure we eat around 11:15 - 11:30 to miss the big lines...then we get a snack before dinner (and by snack It probably includes a nice adult beverage).. cannot wait for the next installment.

Thanks again for your kind words...I don't really know what I wrote in the last update...I was sooo tired. I'm still pretty tired today.

I need to make sure we eat early on my next trip in June 09

 

[DisneyLaura]

Note to self - have lunch at CHH late. Great pics and update as usual.

Thanks Laura. By 1:30pm the line was empty.... NO MOJO

 

[stagemomx3]

Wow that was a lot of people in line. I would have insisted on leaving.

 

[WendyO]

Dylan actually looks just like my cousin Ryan when he was little... granted my cousin's 18 now and isn't Asian, but I swear they look so much alike!

This is a hysterical statement. I was waiting for "...and my cousin's a girl, oh, and also a doberman pinscher..." hee hee hee. It's funny how people who don't *really* have any outward similarities (age, nationality, etc.) can still "resemble" someone else based on mannerisms or whatnot. Funny. Love it.

well, i hope everything goes well. i'm sure it will - you're an old pro at this! by the way, i was doing the math on how far along you were during this trip and i'm thinking 3-4 months. if that's true you weren't showing AT ALL!!!! i didn't even realize you were pregnant until i caught a few pieces of chatter here and there and then i saw your ticker.

Yeah - around 3-4 mos pregnant on the trip... wasn't showing too too much... I felt for this pregnant CM at DL yesterday b/c she asked me "Oh, how far along are you?" and I said "I'm due in a week" and she said "Wow, I still have to wait until December..." and she was showing somewhat already. but don't believe my ticker... I *AM* counting on the fact that she'll be late to her own party and won't come before the 7th (ha ha). Derek's already set up our webpage with the announcement (date and all) with just the stats blank... ha ha ha.

Not one of my favorites, but honestly in 46 years I think I've seen this attraction maybe 4 times.

Tiki Room is a good date attraction... you can cuddle in the back row on the benches. Hee hee.

COP is one of the attractions that brings back fond memories of growing up going to Disneyland.

Clearly I'm not as ancient as Jordan since I never saw COP at DL... it had always been America Sings as far as I knew... my first introduction to COP was at WDW... crazy.

Baby - I can't believe it's time already! I can't wait to see pics and find out her name! Here's prayers and PD for your delivery!

Best of luck to Wendy and Derek! I only used your links at the end of each update so I didn't even see she was pregnant. How exciting, Erin and Dylan will be a great big sister and brother!! Keep us updated!

BEST WISHES TO WENDY!! You are getting so close.

Thanks so much! Will keep you posted.

Wendy we also went thru the whole "name" thing w/ our 2 kids DS went 14 hours before he had a name. Nurse came in & said we had to agree on one before midnight or else. We went w/ the N ending too we have a Morgan & Corwin.

That is so funny... I definitely think I have to have a name before going into the hospital... but we are cutting it close... we're narrowing it down...

 

[mkluvsmickey]

Hey Jordan! Just wanted to let you know I am still here and reading - just hadn't been posting much. Your updates always bring a smile to my face.

Wow on the CHH crowds! We just discovered this restaurant on our trip last Ocotber and were amazed at how empty it was - guess we weren't there at noon.

on the falling asleep at the computer. Been there.

 

[KatGarcia]

How cool is that? You are a true disney fan Kat.

I am a true disney GEEK. I not only have the tiki room ring tone I have "kiss the girls" & a song from Pirates and to add to my geekiness I have a harry potter one too!

Here I am still recovering from the previous night:

Priceless.

Now let me tell you about one of the many rookie mistakes I made. For some reason I scheduled all of our lunches around nooniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii(okay....I decided to leave this in...I TOTALLY FELL ASLEEP at the computer.....)

I can't believe it!!!! ANd for falling asleep.

Kim's meal:

Magical Tuna...mmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Up next: A very special Blossom epsiode: Erin has lunch with the princesses.

Blossom? Like the tv show? I used to love that show.

 

[lisalonglash]

Wendy has NOT had her baby yet. She is due August 4th, but will probably make it to August 7th her induced labor date. No names for sure yet....

Easy L&D prayers being sent Wendy's way

That's awesome

So back to the story. I have no idea why I did this. We didn't have big breakfasts so we could've eaten much earlier, but just didn't. As a result, we were always met with big crowds. However, nothing could've prepared us for the mass of humanity we were about to encounter.

We would have left - you're obviously much more patient than we are

We sent the kids and Kim and Jojo to find a table while Joshie and I waited in line. We waited and waited and waited and waited. It was about a 30 minute wait.

30 minutes?! Yep, we would have left for sure LOL

Baby J eating, but not really getting much attention:

Aw, he's adorable!!!

Up next: A very special Blossom epsiode: Erin has lunch with the princesses.

Ooh, oooh, I call dibs on Joey! He used to make me swoon

 

[whogirl'smom]

I win! I knew it had to be Columbia Harbour House and it looked exactly like that when we went for lunch. I meant to go early, too, but we got stuck on Space Mountain and it messed up my plan. DD loves clam chowder so it was worth the wait. And I would wait 30 min. again for a Lighthouse Sandwich (that the one with hummus?) if I had to.

Poor Baby J!

I'm seeing a trend with the bench/sleeping...

 

[Blueyed Girl]

Just thought I'd reply to this right away as we're rarely on at the same time.

Dylan just sat there. I think he played on the floor as well if I recall. The show is never full so there was no one around us. so Dylan could move around a bit.

CHH is all about the timing. I really like the food there and I LOVE the theming.

Awww, I can't believe I missed it!! Sorry.

I think HOP would be a good place to go when you feel like you just can't take the heat for one more second!

 

[Tanya90210]

I love CHH... food is soo good and sooo much of it!! Love it!

 

[JenSop]

We also really like CHH - although I've never seen it that busy - yikes!

Learnin' lots from your TR!

 

[Charleston Princess]

Still waiting to show up in someone's TR

I have no doubt that you will one day!

Yup Seriously!!! I was also drooling a bit.

I can't imagine that is good for the computer equipment -- you are liable to short something out one of these times.

It was an apple dumpling/turnover of some sort. It was pretty good,but I was already full...

Mmmmm, I could do that and a bowl of chili, and it would be the perfect lunch for me!

 

[rentayenta]

Good luck to Wendy and the baby!



That line looks awful. Last year in AK, I waited over an hour to order. I was so hungry I was about to kill and grill up one the local ducks.

 

[jordanyosh]

Wow that was a lot of people in line. I would have insisted on leaving.

I would've but Josh and JoJo were on a time schedule at that point...

Hey Jordan! Just wanted to let you know I am still here and reading - just hadn't been posting much. Your updates always bring a smile to my face.

So glad you're still around. I always hope that people will enjoy the TR!!!!!! I'm glad you enjoy it.

Wow on the CHH crowds! We just discovered this restaurant on our trip last Ocotber and were amazed at how empty it was - guess we weren't there at noon.

on the falling asleep at the computer. Been there.

Lucky you. Both times I've eaten there before, there's been little or no line...

I've been falling asleep everywhere lately.

I am a true disney GEEK. I not only have the tiki room ring tone I have "kiss the girls" & a song from Pirates and to add to my geekiness I have a harry potter one too!

I would never call you a geek.

Priceless.

Dreaming of NJ drunks no doubt. It's actually a traditional pix we've taken over the years. I don't think I'm all the way asleep.

I can't believe it!!!! ANd for falling asleep.

I know...I must've been out for awhile....

Magical Tuna...mmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Kim said it was delicious.

Blossom? Like the tv show? I used to love that show.

Good catch!!
