That's ok - if you got it right, I will award points, even if someone else answered it first. That's my rule
I think I like your rules better than Ann's....
Oh, now I am hurt. 
Ok.. so I admit my game is a bit random and hard to score... and maybe even a bit unorganized. 
but that will make Susan's all the more fun 
Haha well I wasn't trying to make it easier than Ann's. Just setting a standard as we get started. Thanks for the compliments on my niece, but they really go to her or my sister. I had nothing to do with it!I think I like your rules better than Ann's....
I have to agree that Hailey is a stunning Ariel...and that costume...WOW!
I guess I should post some pics of Katie so you can see her. Maybe soon, when I slow down a little.Hah your game is lots of fun Ann!
I agree. I never seem to log on in time for Ann's.
Answer: B. "Uncle Joe Benson" is a famous classic rock DJ from Los Angeles. He reassures you that if you're late for the Aerosmith concert, you don't have to worry - his station will be broadcasting live from the show.
Keeps ya guessing as to when I might post though, eh?
Answer: A Epcot. In February 1967, just two months after Walt Disney's death, Walt Disney Productions announced that it was going to build Walt Disney's dream of a city of tomorrow in WDW. Walt had outlined his plans for that city in a film he narrated. In it, he states that "The most exciting and by far the most important part of our Florida Project - in fact, the heart of everything we'll be doing in Disney World - will be our Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow. We call it 'EPCOT'. EPCOT will be an experimental prototype community of tomorrow that will take its cue from teh creative centers of American industry. It will be a community of tomorrow that will never be completed, but will always be introducing and testing and demonstrating new materials and systems. And EPCOT will always be a showcase to the world for the ingenuity and imagination of American free enterprise. I don't believe there's a challenge anywhere in the world that's more important to people everywhere than finding solutions to the problems of our cities."
I've been out of town for our annual Partner Advance. I am a partner in a CPA firm and our philosophy is "never retreat", so instead of a retreat, we have an annual Advance. We are fortunate that we get one night/day in San Francisco, followed by 2 nights/days in Napa. It was cold in San Francisco and I got to wear my new brown cropped leather jacket (very exciting) and it was beautiful weather in Napa. A nice break from the heat in Austin.
I got back last night, and today is my Mom's 70th birthday. We are sooooo thankful to have her with us, because we almost lost her 2 years ago to MRSA/meningitis (which is still unexplained as to how she contracted it). She was in ICU/PCU (step-down) for 36 days, followed by another 30 days in a rehab hospital, followed by skilled nursing and now assisted living. She is doing very well and is apparently fully recovered, except for her kidneys. She has dialysis M-W-F and is on the transplant list.
So last night we did some quick Target shopping (the $1 items at the front of the store and some other stocking-stuffer-type things) and went to my sister's house to organize and wrap. Today, it was Mom's task to open 70 gifts (one for each of her years), each 10 minutes apart. Her finale was dinner at Saltgrass Steakhouse and a Kindle and cover. She's had a great day!
So I apologize for not updating, but I've been crazy busy. Still looking very much forward to this Disney trip, and the good thing about being busy is that the time goes by more quickly.
So, today's trivia:
131 days until Disney. Where are the horses that pull the trolleys on Main Street in the Magic Kingdom kept?
a) In a stable behind Adventureland
b) Near Rafiki's Planet Watch in Disney's Animal Kingdom
c) Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort
d) Off property in a stable used exclusively by Disney
And the last trivia question I posted last week:

Next time: Let's talk about 'Ohana and WCC.
Hey that's a great idea for the countdown for Alexa. It's like Christmas!That's really neat about making your mom open up the 70 presents! Very cute idea. We've been finding little 1 and 2$ Disney things for Alexa. We'll wrap them and let her start opening them 30 days from trip day. We've got a couple bigger things like her minnie lanyard and pins and nice coloring set for the road trip.
and I'm going to say C. Fort Wilderness!
We had lots of fun pulling the stuff together for Mom, and she really enjoyed the day.OMG.. what I neat thing to do for your mom!!!
As for the guess... I guess A. Behind Adventureland.
Answer: C. Guests can catch a ride in Town Square or in front of Cinderella Castle near Central Plaza for a one-way, horse-drawn trolley ride down Main Street, U.S.A. The horsed used to pull the trolleys make their home at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort. Their horseshoes are made of plastic, because it was found to be easier on their hooves than metal.
Glad you got ADR for Ohana!
Answer: d.) Morocco. Because the buildings in the Morocco pavilion are replicas of structures with great religious significance, they are not lit.
I was pretty excited about it and my DH laughed. Can't share it with Katie bc she'd figure out the secret. We are super excited about the 'Ohana time. Now we'll have time for dinner before the party!
Answer: c.) Captain Horatio Witherspoon. Located in Animation Courtyard, the lively 17-minute Voyage of The Little Mermaid features actors, puppets, film, special effects, and music from the original animated film.
