Canadian Buffoon's Hi Low Vacation - South Central Musings

[pkondz]

HI Pokndz
Did I mention in my last coment that I seen the treasury belonging to you in the dwarfs mine. I think I may have forgotten to mention it because it was only when I went back through for the third time that I spied it. So it looks like I am admitting that I missed it on the first and second pass but became more oservant in the third phase.But as the points have not been a located yet I should still be able to claim for the tresuary as well as the magic boat ride in the jungle.

Nope you hadn't mentioned it.
And yes... you were in time.

 

[pkondz]

I have GOT to stop reading from my phone! I almost missed your other venture in the queue of the mine! Either that or I was so focused on the creeper photo before it that I wasn't thinking right!

Sometimes bigger (monitors) is better.

 

[pkondz]

I work full time and go to school full time. I also work at a childrens museum so it gets hard to find the time to read your reports. haha

Busy! I'm shocked you have time to read at all!

 

[pkondz]

Questions, next round:

1. Bus

2. 4 mins

3. B. Disney springs. To get your Harley chip.

4. Animal kingdom

5. Extra security? Yes

6. I stand in line. I know. You're shocked.
How long? (it was long) 5 mins (what line are we talking about here??? For security, for tapstile, for restroom???)

7. A. CM

8. Shortish day -- 10 pm

Noted.

Bonus: Cruising time

Always time for a little boat ride.

Looks like my prodding worked!

Speaking of which, looks like I'm going to have to start it up again shortly.

Okay! Okay! I'm almost caught up here...
So I can start writing again.

If you want another tip -- you MUST try the nutella waffle sandwich at Sleepy Hollow. My wife is not nearly the Disney enthusiast that I am, and on our past F&W adults only trip, she got this thing two times. We're about to head back in February 2017 with kids and grand parents and the one thing she told me was that I had to work in a trip to Sleepy Hollow at least once -- preferably twice.

You're the second person to mention this.
I'm not a huge Nutella fan, so I dunno.

Well... maybe I will.
Hang on...

Okay, it's added to my Disney list.

Here's an obligatory food porn pic...

Also -- I got to cross something off the bucket list that I think is also on yours...

Shoot. The photos didn't show up.

That sounds like some velociraptor-style team work on the dogs' part.

That's what it is!!

 

[pkondz]

And voila. Caught up.

 

[Steppesister]

Because I use every method possible, including pilfering others' research and comments, but going back to confirm and see, yes I saw the 2nd one I hadn't before.

May I take a cut. Or invest somehow?

First of all, I'm so glad that Kay recovered from what ever was ailing her! Hopefully it will be one of those bizarre things that can't be explained but happens once and never comes back again. No matter what, it’s a frustrating thing to go through when you as a parent can’t take the pain away. That was a long wait to see a doctor too!

If I can decide on a picture I just may post one. I know MM is a little pricey, but what’s a little more $$ when you're adding to a Disney vacation. Like I said, we’ve been waiting a long time and wanted to make sure we captured any moments we could.

Don’t know when the next update is coming, but I figure I better get my guesses in before the long work week gets me.

The ice cream sandwich looks so good. What was sad about putting my hands up to it was I wish I could have grabbed it and taken a bite!

1. You take a bus

2. 7 mins.

3. D. A Resort

4. Next park is AK

5. Yes to extra security. You must have bought that VIP package with your buses

6. You wait in line 25 min

7. B. The jerk is a man (is there any more to say to that?)

8. What do you think is a long/short day? It’s a matter of opinion. Some how you make it a fairly long day and get to bed at 10:45

Now I need to ask a favor…Do you have any money or a low interest loan you could give me? See I have this amazing show to see and it’s for only one day. If you can’t then I’ll have to do the next best thing and go swimming.

Hopefully will get comments in later. Have a good day

Hands off, lady!
You can have my body, but the cash is mine!

Thanks. Who knows? Maybe it was something she ate.

It was long. And I knew it would be. Maybe not quite that long, but...
She wasn't really... an emergency so she gets bumped.

If I can decide on a picture I just may post one.

Yay!!

I know MM is a little pricey, but what’s a little more $$ when you're adding to a Disney vacation. Like I said, we’ve been waiting a long time and wanted to make sure we captured any moments we could.

I suppose so.
But when you're pinching pennies on a quick trip...
But I can totally see it for anything longer...
Or for more than one person.

Don’t know when the next update is coming, but I figure I better get my guesses in before the long work week gets me.

Working on it.
Have one photo to finish editing I think.
I'm caught up here.

The writing begins... tonight.

Mine! Mine! Mine!

I can offer you a slightly worse than low interest loan
of a mere 34% interest.
Would that work?

Plus the vig, of course.


(BTW, that was very well done. )

Hopefully will get comments in later. Have a good day

Don't wait too long! Have a good one too!

Just think if you had gotten that Annual Pass way back when...memory maker is included for free.

<sigh> Yeah... I hadn't gone more than about once in a decade.
Who knew I'd be there so much lately??

 

[orangecats2]

And? How did it go?

It was fine. He's a spoiled kid. When he didn't win at the claw game he said he had a bad birthday! We had pizza and cake. I'm not a good bowler. I got a 65. Plus I have a cracked tooth that is painful.

I didn't do the hand thing because the directions weren't clear. I then tried and it looked like a mutant butterfly.

That's how I felt after being rejected by Ariel!

We had pizza and cake.

Mmmm.... Except... bowling alley pizza? Or good pizza?
(unless a miracle has occurred and a bowling alley has good pizza.)

I'm not a good bowler. I got a 65.

I was going to say, neither am I.
But. 65?

You're really not a good bowler.


Did all the little kids make fun of you?

Plus I have a cracked tooth that is painful.

Ow! Now how did you manage that?!?!?

I didn't do the hand thing because the directions weren't clear. I then tried and it looked like a mutant butterfly.

But... you tried.

 

[pkondz]

Poop. Just realized I still have a few more photos to edit.
Forgot about the iPod and stuff.

 

[franandaj]

OK, so you were trying to throw me off with the pooping and swimming at the same time! I hope that's everything!

And I don't mean the poop in the post above, the one in the update.

 

[Gracefulskinny]

Kay's all better.
Whether it was a cyst, her gall bladder,
a pulled muscle, new cramps
(look up mittelschmerz for fun. The doc's best guess.)
or whatever....
She's all better now.

Gall bladder is higher (Think near the underwire line when wearing a bra). Looked up mittelschmerz... Basically a fancy slightly scary way of saying Ovarian Cyst. I'll definitely PM you some info to pass on to her.

Oh, that makes perfect sense.

I know right. Why tell it like it is when you can scare them with the unknown and over the top medical terms?

Actually, yes. Please do send a PM.
I don't know if she has questions,
but I'm sure she'd appreciate answers.

Like I said above I'll send you a pm as soon as I get a chance. Hate that she gets to become familiar with the wonders of ovarian cysts but at least it's something mostly manageable.

But while you'd be saving on walking,
not sure how often the busses will come.
So you're still possibly waiting for the bus.

True but you do get to skip Security at the new park.

Consider this giving you bonus points.

Yay your the best!

Okay. Check the comment on gall bladder.
And I did get the PM. (PMd you back)
Thanks!

Yeah, I'll talk with her first and take it from there.

True but you do get to skip Security at the new park.

Yes!
And if you have to wait 20 minutes for a bus...
At least you don't have to spend an extra five or so
just walking to the bus stop.

I think I'd pay for it.

Yay your the best!

Thanks!

 

[Steppesister]

Fine. Be that way.

 

[pkondz]

Fine. Be that way.

Ya gots that right toots.
Well.... I could be persuaded to part
with some cash.... with the right incentive.
