After having part one up for a week-and-a-half, I figured I'd better get to writing part two pretty soon. Anyhow, for those that missed part one, you better read it, because parts 2/3 are the 'cons' of my trip and only get worse, lol. But, lets start on a bright note by explaining some of the celebrity sightings I *may* have had:
Arties Wife from the Sopranos: I LOVE the Sopranos, so the first thing to catch my ear while at the Contemporary was this womens deep accent. When I turned around, I saw what I still believe to be Arties wife (the resturant owner that is bald). This woman (if not her) has to be a stunt double, as the resemblence is uncanny. I will say that out of make-up (if it was her), she is very, very average.
Eva Longoria: This is the more questionable of the 2 sightings as I am basing this off a quick glance, and assuming the large party w/her was some sort of entourage. Again, at the Contemporary on the monorail a very large party came on board, with a few of them being very pretty latina women. To make a long story short, everyone on board with us kind of did the same thing I did----looked around trying to figure out 'who' this was, and why there were so many people around her. I know like only 3 latina movie/music stars, and this wasn't J-Lo or Shakira, so that leaves Eva. I should be a private detective, lol.
Now for the bad and questionable things I saw at Disney:
Back Hair at the Main Pool: I swear to god just about every guy at POR's main pool looked like one of the gorillas at AK. I know after 30yrs old you get those few stray hairs, but my god, please use some Nair, Razor, Epilady, etc. There was one guy in particular that was laying out, and had a bird land on his back----my guess is the poor little bird thought he could nest in the thatchy back hair. But even with this, the back hair saga got worse---read below:
Speedo's:Ok, as if wearing Speedo's by themselves isn't bad enough, when this particular sun-tanner from above took his towell off, he was sporting a pair of red Speedo's. He was a red nightmare. Just a note to make some of you hate him worse, he had a Pop Century mug poolside----so not only does he have terrible fashion sense, but he is also a counterfit soda stealer.
Capri's and Sandles-----on men: when did this little fashion statement come into play? I can't tell you how many guys I saw wearing capri's...........and I only know the word 'capri' since upon seeing the first guy wearing these I said "honey look at him, he dried his cargo pants for too long". And WHEN did men just wearing tennis shoes go 'out' of style? You can't tell me that those ugly sandles (man-dals as I call them) or more comfortable than my pair of Nike Shox. Plus, who the h#ll wants to see mens feet?
Women in High Heels: Yeah, you women aren't oblivious to my fashion notes.........why in gods name would you wear 4" heels to DISNEY World on a 95 degree day?
Crocs: I imagine this will get me a PM box full of flames, but my god they are ugly. Why the hot pink? I imagine the wearers of crocs console in the fact they are comfortable----I choose bunyons over comfort, cuz these things are ugly.
ECV's: Post fireworks is NOT an obstacle course for two elderly people to race each other out of the park. Also, they are not battering rams to create a 'running lane' for your family behind you. Next time this happens to me, I am following you and pulling the key when they get off of these things.
Stealing: On one of my early morning walks/jogs, I overheard a mother and two sons reviewing what they 'stole' in Riverside Mill. The brother said "don't act like your doing anything, just take it and leave". The mother then said "if you get caught, just say your on the meal plan and you lost your card". So nice that a family that steals together, stays together. Total trash.
Attitudes towards Meal Plan: Moreso than our trip in Dec, we got ALOT of rolling eye's and attitude at the CS resturants when told we were on the meal plan. Not sure why, as I knew my stuff about the plan, and always had my food/drinks/desserts ready to go without their guidance.
Fastpass Nazi's I noticed this everywhere, but especially at EE. Where in the Disney Fastpass by-laws does it say that you can get fastpasses for your entire school band, while everyone else waits behind you with JUST thier family's passes? This 'kid' must have had over 40 park tickets that he took with him, and proceeded to get fast passes for while everyone else waited. This one kid really got me mad, so I told him "this one time at band camp, this kid had like 40 tickets with him, and got punched in the face after he put number 22 in the fastpass machine". He got my drift.
Still even with all these questionable things, and the 'bad' things on next installment, we still had an excellent time.............

I do agree that they are ugly, but since I love them so much, they are growing on me (maybe it's the whole "inner beauty" thing?) 
But I was LMAO at your back hair, speedos, and mens capri's comment because my DH and I commented on every single one of those while on our trip. The speedos were hysterical and the capri's were just plain weird. My DH pointed out the first pair and said "Is that a guy wearing gouchos?" (yes, my DH called them gouchos which in and of itself made me laugh hysterically). I said "it looks at though that man is wearing CAPRI'S which I've never seen on a man before but to each his own" (as I proudly walked comfortably in my crocs by the way). Hey, at least I wasn't one of the ones in the 4" heels.
