Canadian Buffoon's Back to Front Vacation - Update! 05/18 - Falling Down

Hi! :welcome: to the TR!

Well, thank you kind sir!

You count as a regular reader. :hug:

Definitely a regular reader if an infrequent writer!

Look kids! Stonehenge!"

Later that day...

:laughing: Hey, I'm not driving that far!

And who knows?
Maybe I'll see Sir Elton again!

I think you will...did!

Nice!
Your GPS is taking you
on little mini-trips!

I know definitely broadening my horizons although very disconcerting when it takes me the opposite direction from where I'm heading!
 
Sadly, I didn't see this until almost a week in, so I have zero hope of reading or catching up on the chatter and my comments will have to be a bit abbreviated. Sorry! But you have many adoring fans ready to keep you busy and entertained! :)


If you're a regular reader,
welcome back!
Nice to see you again!

Thanks. I will try harder to keep up from here on out!

But, you know, life moves on.

Yes.

I do have a penchant for throwing
my back out at all the wrong times.
And, of course, like you,
I have a love for Disney.

It's like we're twins!

Well... if I'd known that ahead of time,
I wouldn't have gone to Toronto to see him
and wouldn't have met or re-met so many
nice people.

Glad you got so many Meets in and you enjoyed them all!

And then, about two days before I left,
I threw my back out.
Not completely... not as bad as I have in the past...

But bad enough.

Mine isn't going to feel very good for the next while either. I get it.

One last gas up of the car...

I doubt that. ;)



Huh. Guess my clueless face was good enough.

Since your constipated one wasn't?

Little did I know that this was
the last time I'd get wet.

You only took TWO showers your entire trip? :confused3
 




Well it looks like page 5 for me also. Finally here, and I even got an invite. But alas, I was out of the country communing with the underwater environment and creatures. It was probably more fun than being on the first page of your trip report (sorry, but it's true)!

Here now, and wondering if you drove through my neck of the woods and if so, I apologize for all the traffic. The DC metro area has been noted to have the worst traffic in the entire country! We try to make up for it with some great museums, memorials and battlefields, though. Next time you find yourself in our lovely traffic let me know and you can pull off for a "hello" and still take just as long to get to your next destination.

I know how busy you are.
Absolutely no worries.
I was going to wait
until the weekend and then
give you a bat signal,
but you made it over here first. :)

How did your survey go?


But you have many adoring fans ready to keep you busy and entertained! :)

:blush:

Thanks. I will try harder to keep up from here on out!

No worries.
I get that you're busy!



See????

It's like we're twins!

:laughing:

We both love Disney!
That's gotta be really rare!


Glad you got so many Meets in and you enjoyed them all!

I did! And... I did!

Mine isn't going to feel very good for the next while either. I get it.

Oh, no!
What happened???


I doubt that. ;)

Hmmm.... not sure how I should take that.
Are you referring to petrol or other fumes?


Since your constipated one wasn't?

Heh. All my regular readers
are picking up on that.


You only took TWO showers your entire trip? :confused3

Ha! Alison beat you to it.
It was only twice that I put
on a bathing suit.
How's that?
 
Well it looks like page 5 for me also. Finally here, and I even got an invite.

Hi there stranger!
:welcome: to the TR!


But alas, I was out of the country communing with the underwater environment and creatures.

Cool!
Where?
What did you do/see?


It was probably more fun than being on the first page of your trip report (sorry, but it's true)!

Of that, I have no doubt!


Here now, and wondering if you drove through my neck of the woods and if so, I apologize for all the traffic. The DC metro area has been noted to have the worst traffic in the entire country!

Nope!
Did that last year.
Horrible!


This time (with some advice
from @Captain_Oblivious )
I went around it.


And was much happier for it.

We try to make up for it with some great museums, memorials and battlefields, though.

I even got to see one, last year. :)

Next time you find yourself in our lovely traffic let me know and you can pull off for a "hello" and still take just as long to get to your next destination.

:laughing:

I do post my rough
itinerary sometimes.
Shame you didn't see it
on my last thread,
or I definitely would've
fit you in for a hello! :)
 
Well, thank you kind sir!

You're welcome!

And :welcome: to the TR! :)


Definitely a regular reader if an infrequent writer!

::yes:: Definitely a regular reader.

:laughing: Hey, I'm not driving that far!

Far?
If you were to leave
from your most northern-most point...
It'd still only take you
twelve and a half hours to get there.


I think you will...did!

I did!


I know definitely broadening my horizons although very disconcerting when it takes me the opposite direction from where I'm heading!

I'll comment on something
similar in my next update. :laughing:
 
I know how busy you are.
Absolutely no worries.

but you made it over here first. :)

How did your survey go?

It went well, thanks!! We all still have jobs.

No worries.
I get that you're busy!

But after Wednesday, I'm hoping it'll slow down for a while again.

:laughing:

We both love Disney!
That's gotta be really rare!

I was more referring to the back issues. ;)

Oh, no!
What happened???

Carrying some heavy loads. I'll be okay after a few days. Always am.

Hmmm.... not sure how I should take that.
Are you referring to petrol or other fumes?

If this were the DIS Dad's thread, there'd be no wondering as to exactly what I meant. ;)

Ha! Alison beat you to it.
It was only twice that I put
on a bathing suit.
How's that?

No doubt; since I was like the last person to join in. :rolleyes2 Late to the party. But, since I hadn't read any chatter, it was still original to me.
 
I arrived in Duluth
around 4pm
Duluth, MN? If so I live in Duluth! Ahh we could have had a Dis meet!
I hope your back improved as your trip went on, no fun having your back go out, ugh!!
It’s been awhile since I have been to Winnipeg but I believe it is straight above us, right?
Next time you are in Duluth let me know and we can say hi:wave2:
 
Made it!

Looking forward to being a passenger on this trip. Can't wait to see who we are going to be meeting!

:thumbsup2

PS- Why aren't we calling this part of the trip "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road?"

Or maybe that will come as you are leaving Toronto.

I know.

Patience.

:sad2:
 
I feel like I've been missing out on all the fun, so here I am for my very first @pkondz TR! I enjoy reading your comments on several other TRs I follow, so very excited to read along here :)
 
Oh, no!
Scarred for life!

I am.

So... you're saying
you're over it already.



Well, that was quick.

Well, 10 seconds can seem like an eternity to some.

Yay!
:welcome: to the TR, Su-Lynn!

Thank you! Happy to be here!

If it'll help, I can do that
for you if you like.

Yay! I can be part of the meet!! Virtually!
Feel free to take any picture of me on my TRs. But only the good ones. Which is like 5%. Wait that is .5%

I did!
You will too.

I can't wait!
 
Yes there was!
But then I noticed the
good looking guy behind me
and it all made sense.
Well by all means, if you see him again, send him my way! My latest brush with the Land of Hope and Expectation came to a disastrous halt just this past weekend :headache:
 
It went well, thanks!! We all still have jobs.

Phew! Good!

But after Wednesday, I'm hoping it'll slow down for a while again.

Long weekend coming up?

I was more referring to the back issues. ;)

I know. ;)

Carrying some heavy loads. I'll be okay after a few days. Always am.

Get someone else to lift the car
when you need a tire changed.

Seriously, take care of yourself, okay?


If this were the DIS Dad's thread, there'd be no wondering as to exactly what I meant. ;)

:rolleyes1

:laughing:

No doubt; since I was like the last person to join in. :rolleyes2 Late to the party. But, since I hadn't read any chatter, it was still original to me.

I always marvel when two
(or more) people come up
with the same or similar comment.


I like when several get my hints.
Like the constipated one. :)
