I love the tiki vinylmation! I kept eyeing those little keychains... particularly the good luck, bad luck ones but never ended up getting one. I think that'll change in December
Isn't the tiki adorable? I loved it. I wasn't too crazy about the good luck/bad luck ones. The good luck ones would be cute but with my luck, I'd get one of the bad ones!
Yay for some purchases!!! I love the CM Holiday Discount!! My parents also loved it because I would pay but use the room key which was in my name but tagged with my parent's credit card!
Now, I just get gift cards and hand them to my friends so they are able to pay which works too! It is a great CM perk, that's for sure!! I'll have to try WPE sometime!!
Ohhh, that's a good idea about using the room card. You've never had WPE before?! You should go there.
love the
lego displays and the I guess it 's a good thing the living statue didn't scare you two when the picture was takin instead of poking you in the ear
haha yeah, we were sort of expecting some reaction from the statue-atleast I was.
We loved seeing the MNSSHP costumes every evening at the MK bus stop as well...made me even more excited for our MNSSHP night.
Lol at the scarecrow tickling your ears when you went to take a pic! That's great that DTD had lots of Halloween statues and I agree in that the shirt you got from AK is cute.
I totally agree about the costumes. It's one of the best things about the parties.
Yummmm, Wolfgang Puck Express sound delish!
D-Street for me is the equivalent of a drug addict walking into a crack den
I love the tiki man! So cute!! Did you hear about the new Vinylmation line, Jingle Smells? Apparently it's a holiday line where the vinyls smell like holiday things! I want them all...if I were rich lol
You'll have to go to WPE when you stay at SSR.
Of course I heard about the Jingle Smells...my sister and I may or may not have gotten one of those...I know what you mean though, there are so many designs that I like but you have to have some self control!
I really need to try WPE someday, it sounds so good!
I finally went into D Street on this past trip, and I love it! I love that huge table full of Vinylmations! The Tiki is so cute!
Mmm, that rice krispy treat looks so good!
Yes you do need to try it! I'm glad we ate there instead of Earl of Sandwich. Now we have another place to go at DTD!
Ooh, I know, the table is really cool. Love that store.
The rice krispy treats are yummy! And on the day we left when we met Emma again she said they were handing them out for free at her apartment complex.
We saw those living statues as well! One freaked out the guy who was staring at it and then he moved!
WGPE is on my next trip list and a friend just went and said it was awesome as well!
haha, that is too funny!
Yum, you will like WPE. Everything was really good and they seemed to have a nice variety of things to choose from.
Ha, I wish I could seen the Lobster people. That is too funny!
That shirt from AK is really cute.
Yummy, WPE...I'm surprised that was your first visit! That pizza is pretty awesome.
I should have taken a picture. They were great costumes.
Thanks! I saw it and had to get it.
I know! But the pizza was delicious and the bite I had of mom's spaghetti was really good too. Oh yeah, and the bite of the mashed potatoes that came with Emma's chicken...
Those lobster and chef costumes sound hilarious!
Oh wow, good job to yall for not completely freaking out when the scarecrow statue TICKLED YOU. Oh man... those things are a little freaky!
The whole Vinylmation thing is so intriguing. Love the small world Tiki! Do you buy one just to trade them, or do you have a big collection?
Cute Animal Kingdom shirt!
They were so funny-I think they got a lot of people's attention.
I think because the statue had done something to the other people I was expecting him to do something to us too. So we just thought it was funny.
Oh, my sisters and I are a little obsessed with vinylmation. We all have our own little collections. They are so addicting. I always seem to get sucked into collecting the pointless things.
But I do like them because they remind me of some of my favorite rides/characters.
Aw, those vinylmations are adorable! I'm leaning more towards getting/trading some of those versus pins. I like being able to go up to someone who has a job of trading instead of possibly interrupting someone. Plus they're so cute! Love the Tiki man. Do they have a big variety available to trade non-blindbox?
I like seeing the clever costumes like lobsters/chefs. It's nice to see people dressed up as their favorite characters but - as someone who is very uncreative with making costumes - my favorites are definitely the kookier ones.
I've never seen living statues like those! I've seen the typical copper person, etc., etc. I never know what to do around them, it seems awkward (to me) to go get my picture with someone without asking/talking to them. You got a great picture!
I know they have quite a few places to trade the vinylmations but from what I saw, a lot of the trade boxes (atleast the clear ones) had a lot of the same figures-ones that aren't as popular. There are also mystery boxes too but that's basically like blindboxing.
I agree about the costumes. I am so uncreative when it comes to stuff like that.
In August when we helped move Emma in I went on a safari by myself in the late afternoon. It wasn't that busy so the rows of the vehicle were not full. I was in the second row, right behing a man and a kid (presumably his son) who appeared to be about 12.
They were the only two in the row, so the kid kept running back and forth to take pictures out of both sides of the vehicle. The driver told him more than once to remain seated and, although the people didn't seem to speak English, I have little doubt that he and his Dad understood from the driver's gestures what he was trying to tell them. After about 4 warnings the driver stopped the vehicle and sternly admonished the boy to STAY SEATED. I thought he was going to come back and physically put the kid in his seat, and I would have applauded him if he had. The whole time, the dad didn't say a word to the kid.
Some people.
Wasn't there another trip where people got yelled at too? Maybe it was in March when Claire and I were there.
The explanation is pretty simple. A bus to Saratoga Springs was pulling out just as we approached the stop so we were going to have a wait of 20 minutes or so for the next one. A bus to AKL was sitting at the stop ready to leave and, since the ride there takes less than 5 minutes, I decided to get on that bus and transfer to DD from Kidani. The other benefit of that was that by taking a bus directly to DD, we wouldn't have to walk from Congress Park to DD. That walk isn't that long and is usuallypretty pleasant but, because it was raining, it may have been a little uncomfortable.
I thought the line at the SSR stop was long too.
LOL! So were going to retrieve it then off to ASSP we added this night last min due to Cheap Airfare!! 
Is your Sister as tiny and short as she looks compared to You ? I think I'll be able to spot her with no problem if I see her 
, but at least we got the 9-0 Packers Baby!!!
:
love EE!! 
She kept teasing him by holding it in front of her but then would move her arm out of reach again. After a few attempts he finally got it back but I think he was kind of annoyed. haha
For the first time during her CP I think she was a little homesick. She had the day off and was luckily able to watch the Packer game. However, the CP apartments no longer get FOX so she had to find a different place to watch it! So, what better place to do that than go to the Polynesian! She sent me this picture...jealous!
