HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!
I just wanted to tell you that I am thoroughly enjoying your TR! I love that you are a big fan of random dancing and get choked up at all the same things I do! I hope that you have an amazing birthday!
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday Dear Marissa
Happy Birthday to you.
I completely agree with you, your family should have complete set of picture puzzles from Disney World.
I did hear the rumor too about FOTLK closing January 2013. I hope it is after our trip. But will be sad when it leaves, it is one of our family favorites.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Disney has got to stop closing things before I get the chance to see them! Snow White, Test Track (yes, I know it's coming back), they changed Country Bears! Good thing I will get to see the Festival of the Lion King! You know, cus it's all about me!
Happy birthday!
Hmm... I don't know how to break this to you, but (brace yourself)- those ostrich eggs are not real. I heard once that they stick them there so that the ostriches stay put and don't go too far away. If it makes you feel any better, apparently they fool the ostriches too!
Awesome you saw a lion! I've only seen him up and moving around once, and I've been on lots of safaris. You're a lucky lady!
I also heard they might close FotLK, but then I heard that they might just close it temporarily and move it somewhere else, then I heard that nothing is going to change, so, who knows? I hope it doesn't go anywhere either, its a wonderful show!
I just wanted to pop in and say
I hope it's completely wonderful!
Also, just gotta say again how much I adore your TRs. When my hubby and I were at AK we didn't do the Safari and I was a little bummed. Now I really am bummed because the only reason I was ok with it was because of the "Little Red" story line. I've never really been crazy about it. It was kind of pointless. I totally agree that you're on a freaking safari and that's all you need.
Hi! Surprise I'm alive! haha.
Ok I am all caught up.
Ohana is so amazing isn't it! Love that place!!
Loved all your pictures of Spaceship Earth! I don't know if its possible to not take a good picture of it.
Sounds like you guys had a fabulous day at Animal Kingdom!! I will have to give the safari another chance next time. I didn't like to old set up for it, but maybe with the change you described I would appreciate it more. I will be SO MAD if FOTL goes away. Especially for something Avatar? What the heck. It was good but not that good.
I LOVE SITTING IN THE LION SECTION!!! RAWR! haha!
Okay, those cheetahs are not blurry...they are just camouflaged really well. You've got to get better at this "story and I'm stickin' to it" thing.
I'm a little offended by the ranking at FOTLK. I mean, we've seen it once, and we were GIRAFFES.
WHAT DOES THAT SAY ABOUT US!?!?!?!?!
I have been enjoying your TR.
From what I have read on another site is that FOTLK will be closing temporarily so that it can be relocated to another spot in AK. The move will take about 6 months. Then it will reopen in it's new location while the Camp Minnie Mickey area gets prepared for if Avatarland does begin construction.
Um, I was so far behind and got all caught up tonight, but can't possibly remember everything I wanted to say. So let's just start with the most important thing first.
I am loving Once this season!!!! Love it! I hope we get to see more of Lancelot this season and that Cora was lying, because I liked him. And can we just stop and talk about how delicious Hook looks? swoon. Sex-ay. And I love how the characters are a combo of their Fairytale self and Storybrooke self. Does this mean Ruby still turns into a werewolf? And who the heck is Dr. Whale?
I digress. Your view from your hotel room really was Ah-May-Zing! I love that you could see the Beast's castle from there too!
Oh, and happy birthday! Have a fabulous weekend! We will be celebrating my little girl's bday too (she turned 5 on Tuesday ) so I will pretend that her party is also your party and eat cupcakes for you.
Oh, I was bummed that the new Cinderella DVD came out and that I already have it on dvd since the new one has the Tangled short on it. Seriously considered buying it again just to have the Tangled short.
Oh, and wanted to mention, that I have ridden on an elephant before!
I know that there was so much more I was going to comment on, and now that's it's so early, (and I've been awake for almost 24 hours now), I'm too delirious to remember. Can't wait to go home and go to sleep.
Happy happy birthday!
I hope you have a lovely birthday!!
Love, love the safari!! I do feel a little like we are the ones on display for the animals. LOL
I actually feel a but creeped out by the gorillas. The just have such human eyes and seem to look right into your mind. I wonder what they are thinking.
I think, but not sure, but I think I heard avatar has been put on hold. Like permeant hold. One could only hope.

I have heard the same information as a few others, that Festival of the Lion King will close temporarily and then be moved to a new spot. I guess in about two years, we can look back on all of the rumors and speculations and see what really was in the works.
I'm so glad you did the dirty deed of telling her about the ostrich eggs.
I was stressing in my mind as I read, wondering to tell or not to tell, and then I saw your post.
Saved!
Happy Birthday to you! Hope you have a Happy Birthday!
Also- I'm going to take a guess and say Friends... cuz I don't know anything else that it could be.
HATE THE SLOGAN. HATE HATE HATE HATE.
Happy Belated! ;-)
Loving the pictures. DH wants to see Fotlk.
I know I'm a few hours early, but HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
I always take pictures of ducks on my vacations! They're everywhere and they're cute! What's not to love?
HOLIDAY ARMADILLO! I was watching TOW The Holiday Armadillo when I found out that Bin Laden had been killed. And now whenever I hear someone mention that episode, that's the first thing I think of.
Awww! Teen lion! I feel like that would be a show on the CW or something, maybe about a teenager who sometimes turns into a lion? Yeah, I went there.
I loooooooove Festival of the Lion King! Every time I've seen it, I've been in the warthog section. I've gotten really good at the snorting thing. I really hope that it's just moved and not removed. I'm not a fan of Avatar, and if one of my favorite shows is removed because of it, I will not be a happy camper!
you crack me up.
happy birthday!
Great update!
I was just on the safari today in fact, it was awesome as usual.
I love the reference to The Holiday Armadillo lol
Happy Birthday!! I hope you have a wonderful day!
Tree of death! Gorilla's Paradise! RICOLAAAAAA! I'm clearly dying over here!
I love FOTLK soooo much too! It's such a cool show! I hope they never get rid of it either.
Okay, little behind but that's okay! I'm here now and I'm catching up finally!
Your view really was the best. Can I just go be there right now?
MICKEY WAFFLEEEEE! Ugh, I want one. They're really the best. And yes, Disney bacon is a weebit sad. I mean, I'll eat it but it's just not very tasty.
That's awesome that you guys got extra free dining credits! Talk about awesome pixie dust! I can't wait to see where you guys are going to use that credits.
ANIMAL KINGDOM! God, I love the themeing in that park. I mean, each area is just SO well done!
It's going to be weird when they change the slogan. I mean, it's just weird to not sing, "LIVIN' IT UP! LOVE THAT FEEEL-AAAANGGGG, LIVIN' IT UP, LET THE MEMORIES BEGIN!" I'm guessing it'll be different when we go in January. Aw, kind of sad.
I LOVE the puzzle idea! I'm obsessed with puzzles, so this is awesome. And I love your face on the puzzle piece.
That shot of the giraffe with his tongue out is fantastic! Little guy was just hungry, that's all, hahaha.
Our zoo has a giraffe-feeding thing, too! I always mean to do it but the line is super long and then I just say forget it. One of these days I'll do it!
Go here. You can thank me later. http://www.buzzfeed.com/mjs538/the-7-best-pictures-of-a-baby-elephant-playing-at
AW I just love ducks! Disney ducks are truly the best.
HAHAHA I love the holiday armadillo! He is just dressed up for Halloween, a few months early, clearly.
Aww, that lion is so beautiful! I love lions and when you get to see them on the safari it's such a treat!
I'm glad they're ditching that whole storyline, too. It just seemed out of place for the safari.
I love that you named the gorilla Bart, hahaha. Gorillas are so cool. It's like if you watch them, they're SO similar to humans it's kind of crazy. I love watching them at our zoo.
YAY for FoTLK! I know how much you adore that show, so I hope it doesn't shut down! I just feel like it's too popular to ever close down, so fingers crossed it stays open, regardless of their plans for this stupid Avatarland (which I wish they'd just totally get rid of and do something else way more awesome).
WOO, I'm all caught up again!
Ok so I have no I have no idea how I manage to keep missing updates on everyone's TRs but I'm here and I'm commenting!
I love the safari, it's actually amazing! Especially when you see so many animals, sometimes the Orlando weather doesn't like to cooperate though!
Love giraffes! I'm so jealous you got to feed them! I want to do that! Cracks me up how the giraffe knows how to get food by standing in the middle of the road! Hahaha.
Aww baby elephant, cute!
Hahaha the Holiday Armidillo, love that episode of Friends far too much! I just love how Ross says it, far too funny!
Aww I hope you and X are happy together, I think he was the one I saw sleeping in the weirdest position on my trip!
Yay the Lion King ooh apparently they are advertising for new performers for it so hopefully that means it's not going anywhere!
Ps, happy birthday! I know I said it on twitter, but I'm saying it again
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, TWIN!!! I am going to pretend like it is also my 24th birthday today, even though Im actually going to be 26 in less than six months. BUT WERE TWINS SO WE MUST HAVE THE SAME BIRTHDAY. Duh.
I hope you have the most perfect day. Just think, next year at this time we will have already been on our magical twin-cation!
Every time I see a picture of your view I die a little. But not in a bad way. In a good way, like Marissa got to see that every morning when she woke up. Im so happy for her! *happy die*
YAY FREE FOOD. Seriously, best "I'm sorry" ever. You go, Disney.
No judgement. I bought a squirt bottle fan on my Disneymoon, and I used that thing constantly. The only reason I dont use it anymore is because I sat on it and broke it. Yep, you read that correctly. I SAT ON IT.
Im highly jealous of your feeding giraffes story, so Im going to try to overcompensate for my feelings of inferiority by telling you that I once RODE AN ELEPHANT. I kid you not. They had one at the fair, and I got on that things back. In retrospect, it probably wasnt a very wise choice, but I was thirteen and my judgment wasnt what it is today. Anyway, the elephant had really dry skin and when I was on its back it started getting mad and the handler kind of panicked a little so naturally I freaked out. Not my finest moment, but still. I rode an elephant.
DORKY TEENAGE SIMBA. I love it! I always loled at his lion mullet at that part. I wish they would've sneakily put braces on his teeth or something.
Okay I cant handle the removal of Oreo bon bons from Cape May AND the potential removal of FotLK. STOP MESSING WITH MY LIFE, DISNEY.
Hahahahaha, that's like four zebra butts in a row. That's awesome.
Ducks are absolutely the cutest birds, hand down. Who doesn't love a duck?!
Wow, you saw the lion in all his glory for real! Was he chatting? It totally looks like he was saying something.
"Very Nice"
"Thanks!" (Sorry, that's my response to your singing Pumbaa's line).
"Been spending most our lives living in a gorilla's paradise!"
I tend not to believe any of the rumors about WDW until they are absolutely confirmed by WDW. Because they change their plans fairly often.
Happy Birthday!!
So during my last trip in April, I saw the FOTLK for the very first time.....and I fell in love. I will be devastated if they take that away. The Lion King was thee movie of my childhood. Me and my younger brother watched it soooo much and seeing it come to life in FOTLK was amazing. I really hope its just a rumor or if they do take it away from Camp Minnie-Mickey, lets pray and hope they just move it somewhere else Avatar Land has absolutely zero appeal to me so I will be very upset if that is really their plan.....ugh. It upsets me just writing about it lol.
And I do have to say I am jealous that your zoo has giraffes that you can feed. Those are one of my favorite animals!!
Well I hope you have had a great birthday and have many more to come! As always I can't wait to read more of your TR
What perfect timing! I finally caught up, and it's your birthday!!!! I have absolutely loved both of your TR's, they have been great! The two of us are extremely alike when it comes to certain things!!! I try to stop lurking and actually join in now!!
Hey! So first off, let me say that your TR never ceases to crack me up. Like seriously, thank you for that. Now on to some comments:
1) I love me some Spaceship Earth and Living With The Land! And, I've been stuck on Spaceship Earth before in that same position! I've never tried Living With The Land at night but I bet it was cool in the green house. Sucks to be stuck with the lady yelling in Spanish the whole time though. I mean, hello? Doesn't she know anything about the awesomeness that is any Disney attraction? Your phone conversation can wait.
2) Gotta love a Mickey waffle no trip is complete without it.
3) I haven't been on a safari since my first time in 2003 but I've kind of been wanting to go again. Glad to hear that they got rid of the Little Red story cuz I agree, it was really weird to have a fake elephant at the end.
4) I hope those rumors are not true! One of my Cast Member insiders told me that the whole "Avatar Land" thing is on hold for like forever now. They said there's some issue about how James Cameron got the story of Avatar. Like, if he came up with it himself or stole it from someone. So, hopefully we won't have to worry about that coming for a while!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Ok I know I'm late, but better late than never!
AHHH I can't believe you saw the Holiday Armadillo on the safari, what's he doing in Disney?
Hahaha, aww, that poor awkward lion, he really does look like Simba during Hakuna Matata! Aww I just want to pet him, I feel bad that he's not beautiful and majestic yet!
I cannot even comprehend the whole "FOTLK might close" rumor. It's just absurd to me. So I'm going to ignore it and pretend it's not happening. Lalala. There.
I mean, it's SUCH a good show! How could they even think of getting rid of it? I really wish they'd do that Beastly Kingdom thing that was originally supposed to be in AK. Not stupid Avatarland. Bleh.
