[ProudMommyof2]

Great update! I did not know there windows to IASW at Pinocchio's=cool!

 

[karajeboo]

OK, you're on my rotten list now! Know why? I think you do...... "It's a world of laughter, a world of tears....." It's in my head and I can't get rid of it!!!!!!

 

[poohbearluver]

Ummm, hello? You're right in front of Casey's! How could you not go in for some cheese fries?

We love the TTA too! It's a nice "down" ride. And Lauren is also REALLY bad at BuzzLightyear! I beat her every year; and she pouts about it every year!

Monsters Inc. is great. While we've never been highlighted, they did choose Lauren's joke one time: "Did you hear the Invisable Man married the Invisable Woman? Yeah, their kids are nothing to look at!" HA!HA!

Oh, I know! But don't worry, we got some of those (DELICIOUS) fries another day! So good! But they don't give you enough!
I love Lauren's joke!

Great update! I did not know there windows to IASW at Pinocchio's=cool!

Thanks! Yes, they have windows that see into the loading/queue area.

OK, you're on my rotten list now! Know why? I think you do...... "It's a world of laughter, a world of tears....." It's in my head and I can't get rid of it!!!!!!

Oh, it's dreadful, isn't it? Is there really a song more annoying then that? I sure doubt it!

Great TR. I cant belive how good your write for a 10 year old. I'm 14 and I wish I had your writing skill

I'm not a bridge person either, I HATE heights so bridges sort of fit into that category.


I also never do well at Buzz Lightyear. MY highet score ever was a 3000. I was really put to shame last trip when my aunt, a first time rider, got 52,000 and i got 1200.


Can't wait for more

I just finished reading your report and it's really great, you're a good writer. It looks you had a great trip and pics are awesome. Looking forward in hearing more from you.

Have a nice day everyone.

Great update, Poohbear! I love your smile at Pinnochios and on the teacups - also the pic with your brother - just the kind of look every parent wants to see - their kids lovin' Disney! I love the IASW song! To me, it is just what its all about - we all get to be kids for just a little while! I'm really enjoying your TR!

 

[CRdisMom]

Thanks so much! Disney love is the best kind of love there is!
It's funny, when we were getting off IASW, we forgot about Wishes, and we thought someone was slamming doors.

Hola! Ooh, I'll check out your TR! Oh, isn't everyone a kid when it comes to Disney!

Wahoo! It’s Animal Kingdom time! Up at 6:50, and out the door about 7:30ish. A bus is there for us, and we’re off to the park of the jungle!

We get there, and follow the ladies with the rope over to EE. We scurry to the stand-by and are on with little to no wait. Here we are in line! Can’t you tell this is my favorite ride ever?? Such a good pouty face!

Yea, I’m not a big fan of Everest. I close my eyes for most of it (except for the big outside drop and the broken track), I always get nervous whenever I ride it, but I just don’t like it. Hey, at least I rode it once!! Anyways, we escaped the Yeti and came screeching back to the station. Grabbed 4 FP’s, so my dad could ride twice, and over to Primeval Whirl! Now, when we got on, there was a time machine back up. And we kept hearing the recording of Chester. We twisted and turned our way through the Dinosaur age, and hopped right back on with no wait. Next, we headed over to see Nemo, The Musical. We LOVE this show. I love the colors, the bubbles, the sounds, and everything. Awesome for all ages.

(taken without flash- we ain't no rule-breakers!)

We left the big blue world, and now it was time for EE again. First, DB and my dad, then my mom and dad.

Okie dokie, next we were going to eat at one of our favorite restaurants, Flame Tree Barbeque! I chose the BBQ sandwich with cornbread, baked beans, and lemonade, while dad and DB got a half a rack of ribs with beans and cornbread and mom got a BBQ chicken salad. Oh my gosh, so good! Cornbread’s okay, and there were ducks all around us trying to get our food. They were semi-annoying, but the foods so good, with a great view of Everest! We had a delicious lunch, now time for my favorite part- Meeting Pooh and Friends! Winnie the Pooh is one of my favorite characters! We had a hilarious CM who greeted us. Hurray! Eeyore and Pooh!

Next it was time for It’s Tough To Be A Bug. Seriously, my favorite part was walking in the Tree of Life. I really don’t care for this show. The little kid next to my mom was on the ground. Poor little guy. Plus, the stinkbug is dreadful.

On a happier note, it was safari time! Into Harambe Wildlife Reserve we go! I was disappointed that they didn’t focus on the Little Red storyline a lot anymore. Oh well. Still, we saw tons of animals. This one even came like, right up to the vehicle.

We didn't get a lot of good ones. Sorry. Also, that ride is so bumpy! I was on the far right, and I felt like I was gonna fall out! Okay, we defeated the poachers! Woohoo! Outta there. We’re a decent way away from it. Then I ask, “Hey DB, where are your pins?” Oh yes. We searched the backpack. Not there. We searched DB. Not there either. We raced back to the Safari and asked the nearest CM if they had a lost and found. He showed us the box, and we breathed a sigh of relief. Right there. Before we left, my dad and I wanted to ride Kali. DB and my mom sat down and watched Flights of Wonder while we headed over there. We decided it wasn’t worth 30 minutes today, so we watched Flights of Wonder with them, and then went over to this one shop to get pins:

I got this pin, and DB got a Canadian mickey head. He collects the Epcot country mickey heads, like I said. We waited for a bus while snacking on chips, and we were back to the glorious Lodge. What’d we do next? You guessed it! The pool! They have new pool parties now with prizes, dancing, and games, so DB and I joined in the fun. I did the Cupid Shuffle, and DB and I did Limbo. Next, they hosted a music trivia contest, and DB and I won a rockin awesome (and very fat) Indiana Jones doll. We won by guessing songs by Modern English, The Killers, Hannah Montana, and A Goofy Movie (Upon The Open Road.) Very fun, now it was time to change and get ready for another night at MK!

Coming Up: MK, Wishes, and the famous TTA!

As a mom of tween girls I'm so impressed with your writing. Can't wait to read more of a great TR.

 

[MAGICFOR2]

Loved your AK update, Poohbear! I'm sorry you had to go on so many rides you don't like! I love your shirt! I have the same one in yellow, and I bought one for DGS when he was 1! It looks the best on you! I'm glad you got the pins back.

 

[Camster0307]

Your mom needs to frame this one! (good for you for still riding it though!)

We didn't get to AK this past trip and have yet to see the Nemo show. I really need to make it a priority in Dec. - I think Amanda would love it!

And I really like your Tink sweatshirt. So cute!

 

[heaven2dc]

Awesome job on your TR! It's such fun reading from your point of view instead of a grown-up. The WL is absolutely beautiful - I can see why you love it so much.

 

[UsNew2Disney2008]

Great job on your trip report! I've really been enjoying it!

 

[ProudMommyof2]

Great pout- I am truly impressed!!!

 

[Kimberly815]

I am loving your trip report! It is so great to hear about a trip from a different point of view! Keep it coming- your doing a great job!

 

[MushuGirl06]

Thank you so much! Writing a TR is so much fun!

Loved your AK update, Poohbear! I'm sorry you had to go on so many rides you don't like! I love your shirt! I have the same one in yellow, and I bought one for DGS when he was 1! It looks the best on you! I'm glad you got the pins back.

Thanks so much! Oh no, I shouldn't be pitied. Sometimes when they force me on stuff, I love it! It just depends. Everest, I've tried like 3-4 times, and I just don't like it.

On our last trip (if I recall correctly) I purchased this shirt. It's so funny! A lot of people complimented me about it. Aww! I'm sure your DGS wears it better then I do!

Yes, we were SO lucky to get them back. I mean, we've had these pins since our 2nd trip I think. We've been collecting for so long, it'd be a shame if we lost them.

Awesome job on your TR! It's such fun reading from your point of view instead of a grown-up. The WL is absolutely beautiful - I can see why you love it so much.

Thanks so much! I love just walking into the WL, and plopping into one of the comfy chairs after a long car ride down there. Plus, it's gigantic!

Great job on your trip report! I've really been enjoying it!

Thanks so much! I will start on MK tonight! Not a lot of picture that night, but at DHS, we have a ton!

Great pout- I am truly impressed!!!

Years of practice. Kidding. Maybe...

I am loving your trip report! It is so great to hear about a trip from a different point of view! Keep it coming- your doing a great job!

Glad you're on board! It's nice to have some variety, isn't it?

LOVE LOVE LOVE your trip report
cant wait til you post again!

you write so well for being a young age!
and i love that peace sign pin
also that face is to die for haha

Thanks so much! I'm into peace signs. I have a peace sign scarf, peace sign pins, peace sign earring, peace sign shirts, tons of stuff. I should have our next MK night up soon!
