DIS Dads DDC XXVII: Penguins in Paradise!

[that's nice]

I had a really sad conversation with a co-worker yesterday. He is heading out for Florida with his family today and was considering heading to a theme park for a day or two. He told me he was inclined to skip Epcot, because after all,

"They don't have any rides there, right?"

 

[declansdad]

Was one of those a recent trip on the Carnival Triumph?

Nope I missed that one.

Will soon be out of the frozen North. Norm, you better hurry to park the camper on the lawn.

Actually a nice day today. Reasonably warm and sunny and I will be leaving before the next storm arrives. On the way to the airport will be stopping by SH to have lunch with the Pirate Princess Pirate at their cafeteria. May be throwing up on the plane.

Enjoy lunch with PP. Travel safe and I hope it rains for the next 3 weeks when you get back to make up for us having another storm this weekend.

Unfortunately, Mrs. Norm has decided he cannot live on your lawn (unless you move to Golden Oaks). That means we need alternate plans for a trailer. Looking into it.

I hope you told him "nope, no rides."

It's amazing that people can plan a vacation and have no idea what is going on when they get there.

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

Exactly.

Seriously. Next he'll want to know when the 3:00 parade starts.

 

[mm1971]

Exactly.



Seriously. Next he'll want to know when the 3:00 parade starts.

But there is some truth to that one in DW, right? The answer is it depends on where you want to watch it from?

We have been on Main Street for the Halloween parade and heard several people complaining because they had to wait for it to make it's way through the park. You know....."Why is the 8PM parade not here until 8:30. They should tell you that".

 

[DisneyDadC]

Exactly.



Seriously. Next he'll want to know when the 3:00 parade starts.

come now I know your just messing with us.. EVERYONE knows the 3:00 parade starts at 4:15 !!!! who wouldnt know that?

 

[AirGoofy]

That’s some strong arguments in your favor.

We also have absolutely no one that is running in, from, or to anything and since we can’t make the trip to WDW in early January, I believe we need our own team for the time being.

I'm not definite on who is running or attending. I just want to be a pirate.

Well, if you define rides as roller coasters, then I guess they technically do not. Well, maybe test track. If it keeps one more person out of WDW, then that is one less in the crowd.

For some reason, she doesn't like "mooching of CJ" as a retirement plan.

What time does the 3:00 PM parade start?

I think that parade depends on the Headless Horseman. The rider can't see the route and the horse has been trained to run it. I guess when the horse is ready to go, it goes. Also, if it rained, they call off the horse for safety. However, they did miss that last year and the horse slipped and the rider fell during one of the MNSSHPs.

 

[Cinderella's Fella]

We need to add Team Sparrow to it.

Sounds like work to me.

Can you take me as your son? You are old enough to be my dad... actually, you are older than my dad.

I'll talk to your Mother son.

A cruse?... On the Wonder?... In June of 2014?... Thats interesting& thats very interesting.

Whats the itinerary and is it early or late June?
If it were late June I might just have to find a way to partake.

btw: Just noticed the updated avatar&
You planning to immigrate or succeed from the union?

First week of June, sorry, going to Alaska.

You don't have to be from Canada to like penguins. I have had alot of fun because of them and meet lots of petty girls with them...

...and a Belly Dancer!

 

[GoofyIsAsGoofyDoes]

I'm not definite on who is running or attending. I just want to be a pirate.

Well now this logic can’t be argued with.
I believe you’ve found your calling

First week of June, sorry, going to Alaska.

Dang! Missed it by that much…
But that does sound like entirely too much fun.

I’ve seen those pictures.
You may just be on to something there.

If we go, I'll turn 60 in Alaska.

I have those conversations all the time...

That's when you just grin, smile, nod and say.... "Yeah, I know what you mean"

 

[Twin Dad]

Last cold spell? I though winter didn’t end up there until mid June.

Hope you here good things on the job front.

Cold spell as in temps below 0. We should start thawing out in a few weeks.

Thanks, it all comes down to seniority. I'm even with three other people. It just depends on the tie breaker.

[brettcw23]

Are you sure you want to come to Baltimore?









Here There Be Ravens!

This made me vomit in my mouth a little.^^^^

 

[brettcw23]

It's actually behind you and to the left as you pass through the first set of doors.

Awesome pic! Thanks for the validation.

 

[brettcw23]

: Agree with this. Even if you have the $$, why not take advantage of keeping it in your pocket a little longer. I have our August trip money saved up, but still plan on letting chase front me the cash for a few months.

We actually used our points from our Visa to pay for the DDP for 3 adults and 2 kinds. I think I may have ended up paying about $75 out of pocket, but we essentially pay everyhing with the Disney Visa and write one BIG check each month.

 

[brettcw23]

Not worried, I'll just put one of these in the side window of my wife's SUV

NICE!

 

[brettcw23]

We need to add Team Sparrow to it.

I'll work on that. May have to reinstall PhotoShop again.

 

[theduck619]

I thought it was my burgers 'n beans.

Good morning.

I came to the conclusion last night that I'm too old to keep playing basketball with guys who just graduated from high school. But in all honesty, I don't see that stopping me from trying...

Do you yell "Boiler Up" on defense

Aren't you in the Top 5 of overall post padders? And, you're complaining about page 15? C'mon Man!

I was just refering to how fast this one was going

Do you want a text when a new thread goes up too Aaron?

I do

Doesn't that call for an ID10T code?
