RECAP:

Trip 12/25 -28 Surprise for DS

CAST:

Me: Tigger (34)
DH: Sleepy (33)
DS : Space Ranger (4)
Grandpa: Pooh
Grandma: Fairy Godmother

NOTE: Keep in mind that EVERY time between each scene(ride or attraction) Pooh asks 3 things
1. Where are we going now? - remember Pooh can NOT be spontanious
2. Do you know how to get there?
3. Anyone hungry? Pooh always has a rumbly in his tumbly!!
ACT 5 Scene 1

Before leaving AK - Tigger pulls out another wrapped gift for SR - he's all excited again. Tigger made a card w/ Buzz on the front that read
"To Space Range Ty, I Heard you were hear and I need your help defending the galaxy from Zurg. Here's something for you to wear when you come to see me. Your Pal Space Ranger Buzz"

The gift was a T-Shirt w/ Buzz on it (Tigger bought it back home at the local Disney Store). SR immediately put it on and ran to show everyone what Buzz got hm for Christmas.

Off to the Busses to head to AK


ACT 5 Scene 2

7:10am arrive at AK and head right for ITTBAB, Pooh and Fairy Godmother haven't seen this before. Fairy Godmother screamed when the bugs crawled under her butt and SR and Pooh almost fell over laughing at her. PAL Mickey's at it again, SR still won't carrying him but does inform Tigger when he shakes. Good thing Tigger bought this for SR (LOL he's getting such use our of it!)

Great show but it's time to eat! Off to Dino Land

Pooh is having a hard time keeping up with the crew and AK isn't very walking friendly - it's full of hills and small walkways. But Pooh knows that there's a reward at the end if you can make it - FOOD.

The crew takes a pic, which is a great keepsake cuz poor Sleepy looks like he hadn't slept all night - oh yeah, he didn't (hehehehehehehe).

SR walked in first and just lit up when he saw Donald Duck and Goofy. There were only 4 other families in there so there were loads of interaction. SR got an Autograph/Scrapbook that Tigger made him before they left so SR was on a mission to get some autographs. Donald Duck gave SR a big hug while Goofy stood there pouting w/his arms crossed so SR ran to Goofy and gave him a hug. Then Donald started sulking so SR told Donald he was #1.

SR showed Donald and Goofy his lanyard which had mini beanies of Donald, Goofy and Mickey attached, along w/ Pal Mickey. They both loved to see that and SR loved to watch them get excited.

Tigger was thrilled with all the things she tried to do to make this special. Still working on changing Sleepy's opinion but he made be too tired today.

Breakfast was delicious, Pooh was thrilled w/all the choices, Fairy Godmother and TIgger snapped tons of pics and SLeepy drank at least 3 cokes.


ACT 5 Scene 3

TO DINOSAUR:

SR loves Dinosaurs and the crew hadn't been on this ride. NO WAIT so off they went.
PAL Mickey talking all about the dinosaurs, Tigger is so impressed with Mickey's knowledge.

Well, everyone loved this EXCEPT SR he wasn't EVER going on that ride again. Too bad cuz Tigger bounced off and was ready to ride it again. That's okay plenty of other things to do.

Over to TriceraTop Spin
SR is still a bit upset so Sleepy asks him to go with him on TriceraTop. Well, when Sleepy asks SR to do anything the answer is usually YES, so off they go. NO WAIT!!!! Great ride for the little ones.

Now to play some Carnivale Games - NO WAIT and NO one else except Sleepy and SR to play. SR and Sleepy play against each other and when the CM announce SR as the winner he stands up gets right up to Sleepy's face and with the biggest grin says

"Ha Ha I beat you! I won!!! HA HA!!!"

Tigger bounces up and down and realizes Sleepy is laughing. Oh he better watch out he just might like WDW after all!

Time to find some Characters - over to the Character Landing to meet Winnie the Pooh and his friends. SR says he doesn't want to go but the minute it's his turn he smiles soooooo big. Tigger and Fairy Godmother just melt and Pooh gets just as excited watching his grandson enjoy himself.


SEE NOTE ABOVE!!!

ACT 5 Scene 3

Tarzan Rocks
25 min til the next show - SR does NOT like to wait. Pooh is happy to sit and rest and Sleepy will take any break he can and enjoy it today!!!

Show turns out great and we're off to see the animals.


SEE NOTE ABOVE!!!

Over to get FPs for the Safari Ride. 1 hr 15 min return. So the crew heads to ride the train to the Conservation Station. The CM asks SR to help the conductor and annouce "ALL ABOARD". SR is very shy and has no intention of doing it. Tigger is bouncing inside but knows she can't make him so she thanks the CM and tell SR that next time maybe he can do it if he wants.
Between the ride to and fro and wait we make it back w/5 min to waste til the Safari.

Onto the Safari - Tigger warned everyone that they will not like this ride although it is one of the most popular rides Tigger and her group are spoiled.
See, they all live 20 min. from Lion Country Safari in West Palm Beach, Florida. This park has a drive through Safari range that makes AK's Safari a joke.
Tigger's crew can see 8 Lions, lionesses and several cubs on every trip along w/ about 10 Hippos, 4 Elephants, Ostriches, 20 or so giraffes, 50 or so monkeys, 12 or so rhinos, and many other animals. All of these animals roam there designated areas freely while the cars drive through. The animals can and often do come right up to the cars. With that said now you can see why AK's safari doesn't do anything for Tigger and her group.

From the Safari they head out to return to the Resort.

Sleepy needs to take a nap!!! The rest of the crew is looking for food and rest too. Pooh hasn't eaten since breakfast and is starting to grumble. Plus all the walking has Pooh exhausted and hurting.

On the way out we see Stitch and Lilo - SR loves that Movie so this is a definite stop. Every time Space Ranger sees a Character he asks if they are real, he hasn't quite figured it out yet. When he saw Lilo and Stitch he asked if they grew and if they were real. It didn't matter to him, he was meeting Stitch! What a smile SR gave when the pictures were snapped!

Pooh doesn't want to walk and insists that walking all the way to the bus stops are longer than the walk it would take if he drove his car. Hard to keep Pooh happy when he's hungry, tired and sore.
But you gotta love Pooh.
Tigger is starting to repeat that in her head "gotta love Pooh, gotta love Pooh" say and believe it!

Back to All Star Sports...eat,sleep and MK Wished tonight!
 
that morning Tigger set the alarm for 6:15am and had a Wake up call Scheduled for 6:30am.
When the alarm went off at 6:15am this gave Tigger time to wake up Space Ranger so he was awake when the call came in.

At 6:28am the phone rang, Tigger told SR to answer it, he picked it up, said "hello" and giggled the best giggled Tigger had heard. SR kept smiling saying it's Mickey, he says it's time to get up.

Tigger just loves when a plan comes together!

(Highly recommend this for the little ones, it's soooo cool to watch their faces).
 
Sounds like fun. I'm with SR, No more Dinosaurs lol. :)
