Canadian Buffoon's Solo Disney Vacation - Update 07/08! pp99 - Here today gone tomorrow

Probably not. Can you imagine Disney telling an entitled guest that they can't harass the dolphins because it might upset the dolphins?

True. We've all seen the dreaded "entitled" guest.

<shivers>
 
But there are incidents where dolphins have injured people.

Are we sure Jaws was actually a shark?? And not just a dolphin in a shark costume?

I rode it... and really liked it!

Don't. Say. It. Don't. Say it.
Glad you enjoyed it.
Phew kept up the good behaviour! :rolleyes1


But there is one thing you should keep in mind
when staking out your little piece of property.
And that's the wind.

Watch out for SBD and you should be fine. :thumbsup2

There. That was fairly painless wasn't it?
No?
Sorry about that.
No more. I promise.


Your photos are no where near as good as mine! I mean you actually have the thing you want to photograph in the frame! And its in focus! And they actually look good. You clearly don't possess my photography talents.:rotfl:


Yes, I sashay.
But when I have someplace I need to be...
Very few can keep up with me.
I walk very fast and I scan for gaps and openings as I go.
And I use them.

Yeah. I'm just seeing this:

tumblr_ku2pvuJkJG1qz9qooo1_r1_400.gif

Score! Just a three minute wait!

I never have luck with buses. I always seem to be waiting for the one bus that is always late! :sad2:

BibbitybobityLu - 1 point for being a good girl - 2 points because she thinks I'm bad-*** (I'm not... but still) - 2 points.... I was in the pool!! 4 points... Because I don't want a certain nameless prize.


Now I'm thinking you really do want that certain prize *cough* It's A Small World *cough* cause if you didn't I should be first place :scratchin ....:lmao:

I was down another MagicBandit.
Oogie Boogie, the bad guy from Nightmare Before Christmas...
sometime during the day, had boogied off.


Well he is the bad guy.

Anyone want to take a guess what and where this "never before seen" photo is?
I'll make it worth your while!


I'm going to say that it is the inside of a bin....

Which park am I going to tomorrow?


Now I was going to our all wild cardy here and say Typhoon Lagoon....but you cant do ADRs there! So instead I will go with Animal Kingdom...yeah lets go with that!

What is my first ride?

Personally I would hit up EE but as its closer and more animals are out first thing I'm going to say....
ITS A SMALL WORLD!!......okay okay I'll be good....Kilimanjaro Safaris


(No tricks this time. If you guess the right park, you should guess the right ride.)

Ha! But that implys that I have any hope of guessing the right park! That isnt one of my talents!!

I have a lunch ADR in that park. Where is it?
(Hint: It's not in WS and it's probably not what you'd expect.)


Okay now I'm all confused and thinking thats a hint you are going to Epcot....oh well cant change my mind now! I'll say that you are going to Yak and Yeti as you said its not what we'd be expecting and of course that would mean RC but you said no tricks on the park so maybe you are tricking me now!
 
I'm slowly trying to catch up...again!

At least i'm not in last place with points.

Peach has a couple of different sayings...I think it's cute how you exit the ride with her.

Your pictures of a dark World Showcase are awesome, as are your fireworks. I'm not a big fan of Illuminations (it's the last show that I will bother to watch), but being I've stayed at the Boardwalk recently, I could see the higher fireworks from my balcony. Your lower firework pictures are wonderful. And of course you let those kids in front of you...you are a big softie. You can't fake that.

Good job on the bus timing. Too bad you didn't get another DIS meet but hope that happens the next night.

I'm going to say Animal Kingdom, Expedition Everest and Yak & Yeti.
 
Shout outs later! I'm at dance recital next three nights.

Gotta run!

Are we sure Jaws was actually a shark?? And not just a dolphin in a shark costume?

Well, Jaws was actually a mechanical shark...

But maybe it was controlled by a dolphin!!!!


And I saw that gif, too. I get the feeling it's more of a case of mistaken identity.
I bet the dolphin thought she was holding a fish and didn't do it on porpoise.


Don't. Say. It. Don't. Say it.
Glad you enjoyed it.
Phew kept up the good behaviour! :rolleyes1

:laughing:

I don't believe it!
I edited that section of the TR.... BECAUSE OF YOU!


I wrote this:


I rode it... and really liked it!
I leaned forward to hear what Peach had to say and...
Well, either she didn't say anything this time, or it wasn't loud enough to hear.

Oh, well.
Still a fun memory! :goodvibes



I got out of the ride and decided that if I wanted to get a decent spot for Illuminations,

But what I originally wrote was:

"After I got off, I decided that I should try to get a decent spot for Illuminations."


Watch out for SBD and you should be fine. :thumbsup2

Stay upwind of Lu.

Check.
That's good advice.


Your photos are no where near as good as mine! I mean you actually have the thing you want to photograph in the frame! And its in focus! And they actually look good. You clearly don't possess my photography talents.:rotfl:

:laughing: Thanks!

Yeah. I'm just seeing this:

tumblr_ku2pvujkjg1qz9qooo1_r1_400-gif.100672

Yup. That's pretty much exactly what it is.
Maybe with more prancing.


Now I'm thinking you really do want that certain prize *cough* It's A Small World *cough* cause if you didn't I should be first place :scratchin ....:lmao:

Nope. You're not scaring me anymore with that.
You can send it... but you can't make me listen to it.

I will be more than happy to burn it to ash.
And slap a whole schwack of negative points on you.


Well he is the bad guy.

That's true.
That must be it.


I'm going to say that it is the inside of a bin....

Noted.

I will go with Animal Kingdom
ITS A SMALL WORLD!!......okay okay I'll be good....Kilimanjaro Safaris

You're treading on thin ice, missy!
But... noted.


Okay now I'm all confused and thinking thats a hint you are going to Epcot....

Nope. Not at all.
I may or may not be going to Epcot.
But if I do, it's not in WS.
That was just my way of reducing the number of possible answers.


I'll say that you are going to Yak and Yeti

Check!
 
I'm slowly trying to catch up...again!

Go Kat, go!

At least i'm not in last place with points.

See? Always a silver lining.

Peach has a couple of different sayings...I think it's cute how you exit the ride with her.

I think so too.
Actually, it really doesn't matter what she says, I guess.
Considering how funny it was just to hear her say... anything.


Your pictures of a dark World Showcase are awesome, as are your fireworks.

Thanks! :goodvibes

I'm not a big fan of Illuminations (it's the last show that I will bother to watch), but being I've stayed at the Boardwalk recently, I could see the higher fireworks from my balcony. Your lower firework pictures are wonderful.

I don't mind Illuminations. I might actually prefer it to Fantasmic!
But nothing comes close to Wishes.


And of course you let those kids in front of you...you are a big softie. You can't fake that.

Nah. It's not that I'm a softie.
It's because I'm terrified of getting my shins kicked.
It's all an act of self preservation.


Good job on the bus timing. Too bad you didn't get another DIS meet but hope that happens the next night.

Well..... You'll see.

I'm going to say Animal Kingdom, Expedition Everest and Yak & Yeti.

Check!

Eh? Oh.. hmmmm... er ... something you bought in the gift shop in the shop's plastic bag.

Check!
 


I'll give you a hint!

Hmmmm.....



Think... Crowded elevator.



Trust me... You're better off.



:laughing: Hi Tammie! :wave:



::yes:: I'd do it again in a heartbeat. I will do it again!



That's no different from when the kids interract with characters, right?
Which is what made it so cool! It was like I was a Disney character! :goodvibes

Yes, you are a character and you were at Disney, so that made you a Disney character for sure. Not to mention the fact that you were inside a Disney attraction
 
Well, Jaws was actually a mechanical shark...

But maybe it was controlled by a dolphin!!!!

I wouldn't be surprised...

Nope. You're not scaring me anymore with that.
You can send it... but you can't make me listen to it.

Damn it! I got cocky!

But remember...the ninjas....

I will be more than happy to burn it to ash.
And slap a whole schwack of negative points on you.

Oh no! Don't do that!
Not the cone of shame!!

*whispers* It's A Small World after all...
 

Ah, heck with 'em. Go solo! I did!

Traveling solo is one thing…
I was considering chucking it all and living there solo.
That’s a whole other decision.



I truly think the money's in the shipping and handling fees they charge.

::yes::
The most common “offer” I notice now is when they say:

“Act now and well send you ANOTHER who-se-whats-it absolutely FREE!
(just pay the additional shipping and handling)

Which means: It ain’t free.
And yet, I get folks arguing with me saying yes it is, the shipping is just separate.
Noooooo… it ain’t separate it’s additional cost for the item, so it ain’t free!

Ok, ok… deep breaths… I think I’m better now…
Rant over.



I'm usually pretty careful what I write... just in case.

Who wants to sleep on the couch? :confused3

Good policy…
And for the most correct reason.



You can always pass on the shirt and just take the chocolate.
And you just never know how the points will fall...

That’s how it would go, if…
(and that’s a good sized “if” there).

Having fun playing along either way, so it’s all good.



I get that.
Kay is doing guitar, clarinet and sax.
She's always listening to music and asking if I recognize a tune.

Good for her. There can never, ever be too much art in the world
(too many recitals… maybe… but there’s always a small price to pay for proper nurturing)

Oddly, those are the same “axes” I was learning back when I was her age.
Gave up the reeds after graduation, but the strings I’ve been playing better than 40 years.
Guitars come in a close third right after DW and DS on the scale of what matters most
(with Disney coming next in line of course)



Not too late to change 'em.

Naaa…
I’ll stick with the first thought right or wrong
Second thoughts are usually wrong anyway so it’s often best to skip them altogether and go straight on to your third thought. Problem is… I don’t much like my third thought either.

Que sera, sera.
 

:lmao: But I hadn't seen that one! That's hilarious!

As if I would have made any kind of rude jokes about getting off....:rolleyes1

A proper English lady like yourself?
No. Of course not.
What was I thinking?


Damn it! I got cocky!

You got what?
I thought your fiance was away in London for a while longer?


But remember...the ninjas....

Nah. I are one. We's buds.

Oh no! Don't do that!
Not the cone of shame!!

Do not tempt the God of the TR!
He will rain down great wrath upon thee!


Or something like that.

I'll be good! I promise!

tumblr_m3jg2o2g9e1r1awtfo1_400.gif

Awwwww.... look at the cute little puppy!!
Okay, you're forgiven.
 
Well.... They don't fall off too easily... if they're small.
I knew even before I put it on that I was going to lose the dog one.
It was just way too big. No way it wasn't going to get snagged on something.
The Oogie Boogie one was pretty big too.
But I was a little surprised to find it gone.
So keep that in mind, I guess.

I have a DF upset cause they don't make Captian America ones... So we were going to decorate his band with paint and nail polish to look like the shield.... Now he's upset cause there's no white band to use. I think someone is looking for things to dislike about my happy place haha

Rice Krispie treats! The best treat in this world or any other!
Yummmm!!!!!!

DF picks on me. He says they only taste better cause it's Mickey shaped. I won't ever share with him, so he won't know till we get there if it's true or not!

Hmmmm.... need a roomie?

The most common “offer” I notice now is when they say:

“Act now and well send you ANOTHER who-se-whats-it absolutely FREE!
(just pay the additional shipping and handling)

Yeah. That drives me nuts.
Why don't they just say "Order now and we'll soak you for another one!"


Which means: It ain’t free.
And yet, I get folks arguing with me saying yes it is, the shipping is just separate.
Noooooo… it ain’t separate it’s additional cost for the item, so it ain’t free!

Exactly!
You order from anyplace else and there's no "handling" fee.
There's the cost of the item and there's a shipping charge.
And if you order enough, or often, there's not even a shipping charge sometimes!


They should just call it the rip-off or scam fee.

Ok, ok… deep breaths… I think I’m better now…
Rant over.

Oh, I doubt you'll ever be "better". :rolleyes1

Good policy…
And for the most correct reason.

::yes::

Having fun playing along either way, so it’s all good.

That's good!

Unless...

"I hate this game and it hurts to play it... but I'm a masochist so..."

Good for her. There can never, ever be too much art in the world
(too many recitals… maybe… but there’s always a small price to pay for proper nurturing)

Yeah, I really don't mind going to the recitals, etc.
I love seeing them grow from performance to performance.


Oddly, those are the same “axes” I was learning back when I was her age.
Gave up the reeds after graduation, but the strings I’ve been playing better than 40 years.
Guitars come in a close third right after DW and DS on the scale of what matters most
(with Disney coming next in line of course)

I suspect Kay will go the opposite route.
I wouldn't be surprised if she drops guitar and continues on with the reeds.
She just asked to add the E flat clarinet to her B flat clarinet and alto sax.
So she can try it over the summer.
More money.
And I'll probably say okay.


Naaa…
I’ll stick with the first thought right or wrong
Second thoughts are usually wrong anyway so it’s often best to skip them altogether and go straight on to your third thought. Problem is… I don’t much like my third thought either.

:laughing: Give him a pacifier instead.
Paint it like Captain America's shield.


:lmao:

Well, he's right.
Everything tastes better when it's Mickey shaped.


But Rice Krispies treast are awesome, no matter what shape they are.

But I absolutely would share with him.
Give him one bite.
And after his eyes roll back into a focused position... tell him he can't have any more.
 
:laughing: Give him a pacifier instead.

I'll have to take a picture of the "Captian America" shelf in our house. He's a nut... He's a beer merchandiser, so he's in and out of grocery stores and whatnots all day. He found a Life size standee of Cap that was a coca cola display they were throwing away... It is now in our apartment.. Guarding the sofa.

I totally agree that Disney shaped food items taste better haha! I will share many things with him... But my Mickey Rice Krispies are not one of those things.

This week, on Hoarders!
"But I can't part with my Captain America underwear collection. Some of them are hardly stained!"

Yeah. Make him suffer. That'll learn him.


Suffer badly.
"No Rice Krispie Treat for you!"
 
This week, on Hoarders!
"But I can't part with my Captain America underwear collection. Some of them are hardly stained!"

He actually willingly parted with those... But they were almost 8 years old.. And had holes in places too convenient to have holes.. It may also have been that they were so holey and loose fitting that he was getting chaffed doing all his walking he does for work.. He finally upgraded and tossed them!
