Not to be forgotten is my Swatch watch with those jelly band thingies on the face of it (what are those blasted things called) and interchangeable pastel wristbands I got that day also.
Welcome! Glad to have you here.Subbing.
You're definitely not too late. Glad you stopped by.I'm late.... but I'm ready for more!!!
Thanks - glad to have you here.I am loving this! Six in one? Or is it Seven? Regardless, this is going to be fun. In fact, it already is!
BORGBut when you're a kid, you love every minute of it anyway.
Sorry - was supposed to have been one long post, but I got a bit long winded so I had to split it up.And that is way too short of an installment to already have a cliffhanger! Keep 'em coming!
Welcome - Good to see you too!SUBSCRIBING!
Good to see a fellow Texan on the boards!!!!
That works for me!I think they were just called Swatch Guards, weren't they? I loved my Swatch! And my Swatch sweatshirt, too.

You are right! Thanks for that, I could not remember that for the life of me. A Swatch sweatshirt, I am so jealous!!!
....my space loving brain thought it was mondo niftorious
Congrats on the 2000 post counts. Since you and AshClan asked pretty much the same question, I 'll answer the rest below.I'm just amazed that you can remember these details! I am trying to remember my trip to Disneyland when I was 13 and all I can remember is riding Space Mountain and Splash Mountain and passing by some girl singing in a theatre type place, who sounded like Janis Joplin.
I love hearing about the "old" WDW, though. My first trip wasn't until 2006.
Like, wow, dude. Seriously?! Rad.
I was thinking the same thing as whogirl'smom. HOW are you remembering all this? You kept a diary, didn't you?
Granted, my kid-hood trips were about 10 years earlier than yours (shut up ZZUB). But I can't remember much of anything. I remember being scared on Snow White, and flying over London on Peter Pan, and maybe a little Jungle Cruise action on my first trip. And, on a subsequent trip, I recall waiting something like 2 hours to ride Space Mountain (it was brand new, on spring break, and I recall the line looped round and round outside in the hot sun. It boggles my mind that we EVER stood in a line that long....) Anywho, if you are not making this up, but really remembering these details (with or without a diary), I'm very impressed!
You can use this TR to record your upcoming trip so your kids won't have to keep diaries (Though I think they're too young to do so regardless. I suppose that's why we have video cameras.)
You know they say that reality is 9/10 perception and 1/10 fact, so while I'm not intentionally fictionalizing, it is quite possible that my brain did a mail merge of multiple trips into one memory. (I can recall virtually zero details about trips 2 and 3.) My mom seems to think my aimless ramblings pretty well match what she remembers, but you now how it is when two people witness the same accident. Especially when it's the offender's mother.This whole thing sounds made up
I don't understand. Why would he have to convince you? The dog WAS real.COP was fun b/c my Dad always tried to convince us the dog was real.
Thanks my friend. I'll try to keep it real. No seriously. Quite smirking. Never mind – got eat a Swiss Cake and hit the elliptical.But nevertheless, I'm enjoying your completely fictitious romp through your earlier trips to Disney World.
Slash on, my friend.
Having revived our strength, and revived my father after seeing the prices for a burger, we set out for more fun. We started with a whirl on the Mad Tea Party a ride which I can no longer handle. (A fact which looks to pose a problem this summer as my daughters both have it on their must do list. But if it makes my girls happy, I guess Ill just have to tighten up my daddy britches, plaster myself in motion sickness patches, grab the wheel and spin it round till I squeal like a baby pig.)
but for some reason when I went back I thought the teacups were located right next to Main Street
