Well the boards did not alert me that you had updated your thread and now I got behind again! now I have to do the annoying mega post, sorry can't be avoided.
Megaposts always welcome!
First and foremost I forgot to mention on my last reply, since you are wearing a red baseball cap that makes you an official Cardinals fan...welcome to the club. Oh and BTW sorry to hear about McCutchen, I think that might affect the rest of your season. Maybe now we can separate our division by more than two games(well except for the Cubs)
NOOOOO!!!!! Not the Cards! Yeah, I was bummed about McCutchen, but I feel good about our team, so fingers crossed!
Back to the trip... So I think I just would have let mousekeeping walk in and not even bothered getting out of bed, that was a nutty first day and now I want to try it. My problem is Jayners can't stay awake if there are four digits on the clock
That pool situation was pretty pathetic. from your earlier hints I had assumed you really loved the pools and having stayed at one of the value resorts I just didn't understand it. The pools themselves are fine(assuming they are pathogen free) but those value resorts are chock full of kids and therefore the pools are incredibly busy(and probably full of pee) I think you were fully justified in getting into AoA pool, since yours was contaminated
I'm a big fan of the touring of the resorts of WDW, especially the Monorail tour. Having gone so much over the past few years this is now one of our fun things to do.
Yeah, I try to put the kids and their germs out of my mind. Obviously, the POR pool is far better than POP and the lack of shade really annoyed me, but it served its purpose for relaxing. There were far more screaming kids at the Bowling Pin pool, so I think we chose well with the Computer pool. And, I think I forgot to mention, Nigel brought us some beers to enjoy poolside!
We have put on the agenda for our next trip(55 days!!!!) to check out the Outer Rim. They just did a refurbishment of our favorite The Gurgling Suitcase at OKW so I'm nervous that we lost our number one.
I hope The Gurgling Suitcase remains at the top for you. I keep thinking we should get over there since I know you and others have raved about it. Yay for 55 days!
We tried Ohana two trips ago but it was for breakfast, the breakfast was great, I'm sure the dinner will be also but I look forward to the Yelp review.
I will try and check in more often so I don't have to type a book next
time...off to your PTR!!!
okay, well it's after lunch...the next day so I was a bit surprised that Ralph was so hard on you! I mean your outfit wasn't a complete copy of him, but I thought you were in the park. I think he was just trying to get your goat. Your look defeat is pretty awesome though. Memory maker...I saw that they did that on the ToT and thought it was pretty cool. In our trip in March, Jayne and I will be joined by (1)a sister with 3 kids, (2)a sister, her husband and two kids, (3)another sister, (4)my Mom and maybe (5)my lil bro too if he ever gets his act together. Then I think we are going to pull the plug and get that package. (I'm a cheapskate) mmmm Mongolian beef. my first foray into "Asian" food (not sure if Asians would qualify this as their culture) I used to always order this dish, until I discovered Vietnamese and Thai food. I can't remember the last time I had it. pretty sure it was the last century So I love me some drinking around the world, especially during F&W (WDW is so much better with out kids!). Well as long as it is not on the weekend of F&W. We actually went on the last weekend of F&W last year, I do not recommend the weekends for this, you get to see Epcot drinking on a whole new level then. Nice action shot in Canada!!!!! Croque Glace: Jayne discovered this a few trips ago and went on about it sooooo much I was drooling for it the last time we went. It was M'eh. I got salted caramel and chocolate sauce, which may have left it kinda blah. my problem was all I tasted was bread. It's still a do over though Yeah so Maelstrom almost made me single. Jayne went on this as a child and fell in love with it(she is weird like that) when we started going as a couple some years ago, she really talked this ride up and how scary it is. She was not trying to pull my leg either, she just remembered riding this as a child and having her brain freaked by it. Now when I went the first year of Epcot the ride wasn't around yet, so I was pretty pumped to go on this ride. Clearly I was let down. The last time we went to WDW in Mar. I told Jayne can we just skip Maelstrom this time, we'll be back in Oct and look there is a 15 minute wait time. I am a junkie for rumors and news thread(it's been so slow lately though...come one SW announcement) and I keep calling their 800 number trying to get someone to let me get an Oct FP+ for the ride. no FP's are available and as of yesterday still no explanation. Good to know about the outlet in the Cave (this is why I read TR's) Now I need to listen to a podcast, have to get the wife to show me another fancy technology gizmo technique, once I'm done applying my lineament oil It's kinda amazing how much you took the bus considering you had a rental car there. the only time we don't drive our car somewhere is because we want to take a boat. well going to DTD it would make sense not to drive(especially now) but we always stay at OKW and can take a boat from there. never been to Splitsville but I think I may just to get that big coozie (spellcheck doesn't recognize that word but it is correct) I could really use that coozie when I get a 24 ounce can of beer at Busch stadium when the Cardinals make the playoffs this year!!!! yup that is trash talking! Congrats again on the TR it was a really good one. I really enjoy reading about yours and Nigel's travels to WDW, because you guys are similar to us and our vacation styles, well except we could never go for just one weekend, I would have to sedate Jayne to get her in the car for the trip home. I hope someday are travel times synch up and we can try a dis meet. take care and looking forward to your next TR
