And you're okay? Feeling a little woozy, maybe?
No? Queasy?
And now that I've made it page 37 my head is spinning!
Ah! Well belated happy birthday and congrats!
Well thank you and Happy Belated to you as well!
Sure! They all just sorta flow together anyway.
OK, you got it coming up! I like commenting over here. I get fun comments (and sometimes irreverent ones) back!
However, I don't find BTMRR jarring at all.
Odd.
You haven't ridden (not sure the actual correct verb) the new one at DL, if you had you would notice a difference!
Right now I have exactly zero in the hopper.
But actually isn't that good? Since you stopped planning trips you have been on what? five?
OK comments on the last TR....
So, glad to see you weren't a fan of the stupid hat either!
I remember the Pre-hat days and never understood why they thought it should be there, it never made sense. I have seen pictures from friends who went last week and it looks great sans hat!
As I read your Day 2 postings I see you fancy yourself as a modern day Walter Mitty!
I never saw the movie, but James Thurber was required reading back in the day.
I have no idea what kids read today, but your daydreams sure conjure up his spirit!
Also, I now understand why your harem is full of mermaids.
Did I mention that before my last job turned my hair gray, I was a natural redhead?
When I was catching up on the first day of your last trip, I skipped all the comments to catch up quicker.
However, since I got my (hopefully close) answers before I posted my contest answers I started reading the comments on the second day.
I think you should give bonus points to the readers who pay attention to what you say.
When you tell people that you didn't ride Space because your Dr. advised against it and they still choose it, I thought it was gracious of you to point that out and let them choose another ride. Everyone loves bonus points, and maybe just paying attention and not choosing something that you clearly said was off the table should be rewarded. Or maybe I'm just being an idiot, never mind.
I read on a blog somewhere today that in the new attraction at Epcot with Anna and Elsa that they were going to have a Frozen Goat.
I'm also impressed that you can make a Croque Monsieuer. Glad you got that BoG reservation. I wonder how long they had that braised pork and if it was on the menu when I went almost four years ago.
Also that rude lady who got in your face, what a little vixen! Next thing you know she'll turn on her friend Peter too!
Never been to Pecos Bills, but the fixins bar is legendary. We ate at a place in DCA last week with a fixins bar but they didn't have mushrooms and onions, just different kinds of chili peppers in addition to the regular toppings. Must be a California thing. I would have rathered the mushrooms and onions.
Oh yeah, and my first trip to WDW was in 1993, but not sure I did the CoP on that trip. Definitely hit it in 1997 on the second trip, and I can't believe that they replaced that song even for a moment! Just like you are outraged at the renaming of the WEDWay, how could they change the Sherman Brother's absolutely perfect song for that attraction??????
I have seen Richard Sherman in concert many times, and once in a pretty intimate (don't take that the wrong way, I mean 50 people as opposed to 500 people) setting and he tells the story of Walt and the CoP song. So touching!
That has got to be one of my most favorite "park tunes". It certainly ranks higher than that one about all the kids in the world....
I guess if I was commenting in real time I would have more to say, but now I'm all caught up and it appears that many of my friends writing TRs are busy and not updating so I have time on my hands, so I can continue reading back issues of TRs.
I bet you were thrilled when they announced that selfish sticks were banned from the parks. I never used one nor was hit with a camera suspended by one, but they are definitely annoying.
Besides I'm in single digits for my cruise and at this point all I want to do it immerse myself in Disney lala land. Who wants to worry about moving stuff out of our house that we've been gone from for a year and half? Or put away things in the new house that we have already run out of space for. Unlike you, my spouse is a hoarder. Supposedly these things are "investments", things that we are going enjoy and then sell for lots of money. Maybe the stuff we have put on the wall or in glass cabinets, but all the other stuff, that keeps coming in the door. That's just cra...precious items that we will sell on eBay. Yeah right someday. In the meantime, it just keeps piling up and I have nowhere to put it, and it just depresses me to keep opening the boxes of stuff we have nowhere to put!
