.*Even Miracles Take A Little Time.* A Beyond Birthdays PTR ~Complete~

[PlutosRHM55]

Even miracles take a little time..., the famous words of the always-optomistic Fairy Godmother has given this PTR new light. It is miraculous I even have the thing up actually, but I'll get to that later. I think introductions are in order, so with a Salagadoola mechicka boola bibbidi-bobbidi-boo, It'll do magic believe it or not, Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo, let's get this miracle of miracles on the road, shall we...

​

UPDATE: THIS PTR NO LONGER IS RUNNING AS A PLAN FOR A 16TH BIRTHDAY TRIP TO DISNEY WORLD OR DISNEYLAND. ALL UPDATES ARE UP STILL SO YOU MAY READ THEM ALL TO CATCH UP BUT NO NEW DISNEY WORLD OFFICIAL PLANS ARE IN THE WORKS AS OF YET. I'M SORRY IF THIS DISAPPOINTS YOU, BUT STICK AROUND FOR SOME FUN DISNEY DISCUSSIONS AND OTHER EXCITEMENT AS I WAIT FOR THE NEXT DISNEY ENDEAVOR. --Timmy

PTR INTRODUCTIONS CONTINUE BELOW

First, there is me, PlutosRHM55, or as all my Friends and DisFriends alike, know me as Timmy. Today, I am tripling as your ever-so-charming and brace-faced PTR writer:

I am a newly minted Disney fanatic, well... not so new anymore, but I had only got the bug over a year ago on my first trip to the World. I am 15 years old, so then I was 13 years old (my birthday came only a few days after the trip), and you can guess I'm going into my Sophomore year of school now, so you're probably wondering how I, an angst-ridden teenager who probably should be interested in other things NOT Disney has become obsessed... well... I'll just leave you hanging and explain that in the next update hehehe and that'll clue you into how this PTR came to be. For those of you interested in that trip I mentioned, you may check out the TR, still in progress at ~When I First Felt The Magic... FINALLY!~ An April 2010 TR. You can also check out my most recent trip at ++Cheerleaders! Blisters! Oversized Water Bottles! ...It Must Be Disney++ A February 2011 TR, which I actually just finished, but I'm leaving it open for anyone to stop by and leave me some comments. Besides Disney, I'm a huge theater geek, which includes singing, acting and dancing in my repertoire, but along with that I do love running and swimming. I'm also a major bookworm and the book I'm currently reading is Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare, one of my favorite authors. My favorite TV shows are Glee, Supernatural, Big Bang Theory, House and Family Guy. My favorite non-Disney movie is... oh gosh... I don't know, I think The King's Speech or Avatar may take the cake for that. My favorite band/music artist is 3OH!3 and my favorite song is Deja Vu by them Did I mention I'm also really into music? Hahaha Yep, so that's me in a nutshell. I'll also give you some of my Disney favorites...

Favorite Park: Magic Kingdom
Favorite Land/Section/Part: Tomorrowland
Favorite Ride: Expedition Everest (Space Mountain and ToT closely behind)
Favorite Show: It's Tough To Be A Bug and Wishes!
Favorite Counter Service Restaurant: Golden Oak Outpost
Favorite Table Service Restaurant: Sanaa
Favorite Resort: Animal Kingdom Lodge
Favorite Character: Sebastian
Favorite Movie: Princess and the Frog & The Lion King
Favorite Song: Can You Feel The Love Tonight, Be Prepared, Zero to Hero, Be Prepared, Almost There, Go The Distance, Dig A Little Deeper and... well I have a lot​

I also have some two other members to this cast. They sadly will not be coming on this trip, but after seeing my obsession with Disney and watching me type up all my TRs, they wanted to join so I would like to introduce my new co-writers:

Autumn, she would like to be known as "Investigative Reporter A" or just "A", she will be getting into the thick of things, the minor details and adding some more light to certain parts of this PTR. And she'd prefer you not laugh at her weight or her species, she's very sensitive and just got on Weight Watchers:

Then we have...

Tessie, she would like to be known as "RST (Red Sox Tessie)" or just "Big T". She is going to help with some of the more DIS-related stuff, like what should be added to a TR. She's especially found of food pictures, though sadly she can't eat most of what is on those plates. Just please don't mistake her for a bear, she really is kind and gentle:

They will pop in from time-to-time and asked if they could post some of their own introductions. Neither of them like the lime green I picked for this TR, so they've decided to go with different colors and styles. Here are what they will post as:

Tessie/RST/Big T
Autumn/Investigative Reporter A/A

Both of them will be on to introduce themselves shortly, it's lunch time for them and they don't miss their lunch, though Autumn continues to knock over her bowl She will never learn. At least Tessie eats her meals correctly

I have a lot in store for this PTR. As you can tell, it is for a very big occasion... MY 16TH BIRTHDAY! And my birthday doesn't come for practically a whole year. I want to get started now so I can make sure this PTR doesn't become "Sorry guys, but this trip is not going to happen sadly" and all the details are mapped out so well that nobody could refuse it. The dates aren't set, but it will be somewhere in between March and May, hopefully on the day of my birthday, we will be down there. I'm hoping for the trip to range from 4 to 6 days, preferably at least 5 so we can sneak in one day to go to IoA to check out WWOHP, but I won't talk about that too much.

I would gladly take any recommendations you have throughout this TR and I hope you will enjoy going through the process of planning as I will, I'm planning to make the whole process as enjoyable as possible. I am very descriptive as you can tell and add a lot of details, so I hope to leave no stone unturned, but I don't want to bore you having that alone. With that said, after reading a few TRs, I've decided to add a game. This first one will be to help you get to know my Disney experiences to understand me as a Disney tourist. I call it Trivia Pursuit: Timmy Trip Style. These questions will come from stories and events that occurred on my past trips or they were to do with those trips. I will start with five questions for this week:

1. What other resort was my family looking at to stay in on my first trip? (Hint: We never stayed in this resort)
2. What is the "only thing that will bring my dad back to Disney"?
3. What is my favorite Disney snack?
4. Why did I go to Disney in February, after not even a year of break in between?

Yep, so that's it. You may answer in the very obscure and secretive white text. Thank you and Have a Magical Day!

[Tink2Day]

The two eldest grands and I subbing!

Sounds like it's coming together for you

We are reading a bunch of trip reports love seeing the 'World' through the eyes of others.
Working on a return trip to WDW myself, but Disneyland is much closer so we'll see.

 

[Jazzabelle508]

I'm in nice to see that you get to go with your friends and your mom, as Hannah Montana would say it's the best of both worlds. Can't to heat what the plans for your trip are

 

[Mickeysgirl34]

I'm in! ~

 

[PlutosRHM55]

Oooo... the readers have arrived! I'm glad I took a break from lunch for this. Hello Tink2Day, Jazzabelle508 and Mickeysgirl34! Thank you for joining us!

I'm so glad I snuck out of lunch to see this, though Big T, I don't think those are their real names, but glad you're all here to read Master Timmy's Pre-Trip Report

I know that, A, but do you see their real names anywhere?

No... oh wait, I think it says Valerie in Mickeysgirl34's signature. That must be her name!

Hmmm... quite possible, but it says "Me" in Jazzabelle508's signature and I'm sure that is not her name.

We can't always be to sure, Big---

Oh no, Timmy's coming, come on A, we don't want to get in trouble again.

Oh dear... Don't forget to answer the trivial pursuit! Goodbye for now, folks! *runs off with Tessie*

The two eldest grands and I subbing!

We are reading a bunch of trip reports love seeing the 'World' through the eyes of others.
Working on a return trip to WDW myself, but Disneyland is much closer so we'll see.

So glad you made it over!

It definitely is... I'm trying to keep quiet about the trip so it won't invoke annoyance with me Probably around Christmas is when I'll have to bring it up

I'm glad to see you have found other TRs to read And you should definitely try to go back, it changes everyday, like yesterday, they just reincarnated The Enchanted Tiki Room at Adventureland in WDW, very exciting! Though Disneyland is still awesome, I haven't been, so I'm really hoping to go

I'm in nice to see that you get to go with your friends and your mom, as Hannah Montana would say it's the best of both worlds. Can't to heat what the plans for your trip are

That's exactly how I'm hoping it works out. I loved going with family and I loved going with friends, put those together... Trip of a lifetime, I'm sure

My co-writers are still eating their lunch I presume... they'll be updating with their introductions and maybe they'll add in some plans or stuff about the trip. You can try and answer the questions if you want

I'm in! ~

Val! Glad you came to read

Told you her name was Valerie...

Who said that?! Ugghhh... I'm hearing things already, time to eat!

 

[wdwgirl03]

Followed you over from your other TR. A birthday trip sounds like a blast!

 

[PlutosRHM55]

Followed you over from your other TR. A birthday trip sounds like a blast!

Glad you came over

I can't wait until it is in the more official stages, but for now, I must plan, plan, PLAN!

 

[PlutosRHM55]

LET THE PIXIE DUST FLY!

I just discovered that my co-writers were being bad and decided to sneak in some comments on my reply to our readers and apparently I was not hearing voices. For this reason, both of them aren't allowed to post their update, so I guess I had to step in and post my own and I guess I had to start the trip off of why this trip is titled the way it is and there happens to be a whole story behind it. I kinda mentioned some of it in the introductions, but trust me there is a lot more.

So I'll start 11 years ago when I was just joining the insane world of school. It was then I started making new friends and on the playground I learned about this wonderful theme park called Disney World. I, of course, was familiar with the Disney movies having a ton of them in my house so I, being just a four year old, had to ask if we could go for vacation this year. My parents of course declined, so I waited until next year.

As you probably can tell, this was a repeating pattern, until I just stopped asking. I did bring it up again every so often, but still it was to no avail. Then, by the power vested in the Disney gods to my mom, she persuaded my dad to finally let us go on one trip to the Place Where Dreams Come True. I went crazy and through all the planning, we had a 6 day trip all ready to go. You can learn about that trip in my TR, When I First Felt The Magic... Finally! An April '10 TR, which has a link in my signature. Without that trip, there also would've been no awesome pictures like this:

That trip started my Disney craze. I was craving it like a long-awaited meal. I needed more Disney and based on my dad's aversion towards the place, I may possibly have to had wait for quite a long time. The Disney Gods were being quite nice to me and I learned that in my first year of High School, the band and chorus would be taking a trip to the World. I am in Chorus so I was over-the-moon, I couldn't believe I was going back again less a year of my last trip. Everything was great right then.

The trip came and went very quickly. I was on the DIS at this point, so I had been looking into this trip for awhile and was already planning a TR for it. Thus, my first official TR, while being a DISer came to fruition, this one known as Cheerleaders! Blisters! Oversized Water Bottles!... It Must Be Disney! A February 2011 TR, which is also linked in my signature. This was a great trip, for I got to see what Disney was like through the eyes of my school peers and friends:

After that, I had basically nowhere to go. There was no possible way I was going to be able to go back until... who knows when. My mom did say she would love to go back, but that maybe years from now with all the other places my family wanted to go on vacation and I wanted to go on... but I still was in need of a Disney fix.

Months went by and I fell into despair for there was no hope. I had entered into another one of my post-Disney depressions. I began reading TRs to get out of this, when one of my friend's over at the Teen Board, MickeyisBeast (aka Sarah) started a PTR for a sixteenth birthday trip she was hoping to take in January. I joined up, not thinking anything of it, but just to read a report, but then an idea started brewing in my head. Sixteenth birthday... Sweet 16... it seemed like a perfect way to allow a big trip like Disney into the picture and I just turning 15 and turning 16 the same year as her... maybe there was hope.

I kinda forgot about it as I got into other TRs until I ran across a certain TR. I'm sure most are familiar with a TR known as The Port Report: Frumpin' Around The World With the Bathrobe Princesses or as I like to call it, the Tale of the Frumpy Bathrobe Princesses. I had seen it everytime I came on the board, but ignored it, but then I decided to check it out... it was almost finished, but I whizzed through the whole thing in a day. It slowly became one of my favorite TRs and it brought back the idea of the birthday trip I had in mind. All the fun that these girls had on that one trip made it seem like a trip like that can only have the same outcome.

So, I began thinking about it more and I told my friends about what I had in mind. I first told my friend Jocelyn, who thought that was a cool idea and was all for it. I told her she may have to possibly pay for some of the expenses, but it didn't phase her. I then told my friend Nate, after and he went into total trip planning mode. He said he would definitely pay for everything he had to pay for, even if he let us pay for it, his mom would probably step in. He also said he had a relative who was a travel agent and could give discounts, though he wasn't sure. He was definitely in on the concept too.

I, then brought it to my mom. She wasn't as enthusiastic as my friends, but said she would talk to the lady who lent us DVC points for our first trip (we stayed at the AKL, but in the AKVs ). I didn't think much of it, that she was probably "just saying" and nothing would come out of it. If you read her introduction, you know where this was going, but I'll continue... The next day she told me she had actually talked to her. I was stunned. She even said, the time of my birthday is around the same time as Star Wars Weekend, YAHOO! Now, I could tell this trip was slowly coming up the tracks of the planning roller coaster.

I wasn't getting to excited though because we still have the biggest hill to concur... my dad. Knowing him, there is going to be a lot of persuasion and so much argument against him to make him not want to say *gulp* no. Thus, I started this here PTR. Through all this planning, this trip will be so perfectly planned that it is sensible for a birthday party and just as great a trip.

I've anticipated much blood, sweat and tears to be put into this, but I know it will be all worth it. I'm also hoping for help from you, my awesome readers, this is in some ways an "Any DISers' PTR". Your input is the most valuable for this PTR and I can't ask for enough. As I said, I plan to make this an enjoyable journey with all the excitement of the trip, even though this is trip planning. Just always be prepared for whatever comes through this TR, meticulous planning, tenacity spanning and all the other insanity. So with that, I have one question for ya...

Are you ready?



Then let the pixie dust fly!​

[Vwdiva93]

Hey Timmy! Definitely joining in for your first PTR. I must warn you though that once you have a birthday in Disney, you're going to want to have them all in Disney. LOL! At least I know that's how I feel now that I've had a birthday there

Can't wait to hear about your plans!

 

[mimiloveswdw]

Here Aww Autumn is so cute! I have two guinea pigs (Ginevra, named after the AVPM Ginny and Zoey) and they tip over their food bowl to eat, too! I hope everything works out for your trip! What's Golden Oak Outpost? I've never been there...anyway, I'll be here reading!

 

[PlutosRHM55]

More readers! This going to be the place to be and be seen.

I'm so glad to see Master Timmy has so many readers already. Hopefully he won't mind the fact, we are taking awhile with our update.

Shhh... he'll hear you!

*squeak squeak*

*growl*

roof -my doggy says he's in-

Ooooo... another dawg! He or a she? If a he... is he cute?

TESSIE!

Sorry master...

Sorry about that... and Jeter and Sarah

Hey Timmy! Definitely joining in for your first PTR. I must warn you though that once you have a birthday in Disney, you're going to want to have them all in Disney. LOL! At least I know that's how I feel now that I've had a birthday there

Can't wait to hear about your plans!

Hi Clarice! Glad you could join in

Oh gosh... I'm not looking forward to this. Hopefully my parents will start enjoying the place more, we join the DVC and... it just all works out from there, maybe some APs Hopefully you get to go back soon too The Disney Gods need to be more generous to us lone DisFreaks in the family

Here Aww Autumn is so cute! I have two guinea pigs (Ginevra, named after the AVPM Ginny and Zoey) and they tip over their food bowl to eat, too! I hope everything works out for your trip! What's Golden Oak Outpost? I've never been there...anyway, I'll be here reading!

Glad you could join in

Oooo... I have two new guinea pig friends! Ha to you, Big T!

Autumn, get to writing the PTR, please don't gloat to Tessie on here.

*grumbles* *starts typing up update*

Thank you, sorry about that... I love your Guinea Pig's names though. You do known Ginevra is Ginny Weasley's name in both AVPM and the HP books... just making sure Oh my gosh, they tip over the food bowl too! I thought that was just my guinea pig. *mutters something under breath* AUTUMN, UPDATE, WITH TESSIE! Sorry about her, a bit rebellious... So... thanks, I really hope all this planning is for something LOL. I actually talked to my mom about it today. I'm hoping to see if going through DVC and staying at a Value would make it sound more appealing. And maybe they'll have Free Dining again

Wait... you've NEVER heard of Golden Oak Outpost...

Oh my gosh!

Is she serious?

UPDATE!

Well... I know most don't really know about it. It's a CS in Frontierland, it's to the right of Splash Mountain where you find the path to Adventureland and I think Columbia Harbour House is over there too. It's a little shack and there is always NOBODY there, which makes it really nice. They don't have many tables but as I said you can always find a seat. Also, if you find a nice CM working there, it's great to strike up conversation. It serves just chicken fingers and such, those kinda meals, a lot about crispy chicken, sandwiches and salads, but I like the portion sizes and they have awesome chicken and awesome fries. I've gone there three or four times over my two trips. Once or twice on my first trip and twice on my second (my friends requested it, they really enjoyed it). So I highly recommend checking it out if you can.

Loving your PTR so far. I think your idea is SO cool. I also read Jess's TR (The Port Report) and I'd love to go to Disney with friends too. I'm looking forward to seeing how yours comes out!

Yesss I do know it's Ginny's name in both She just acts more like the AVPM Ginevra, so I say that's who she's named after Thanks for clarifying what Golden Oak Outpost was...I only go in August, so we never eat anywhere outside...the heat is just unbearable.

So I guess that's the only CS you've repeated, then?

Also, tell Tessie that I have a very big dog that would like to be her friend Is she a Bernese Mountain Dog, by the way?

She really is... Awwww... Thank you Timmy and StephaniexMarie, just remember, don't mess with me. That is very true, if you rub her the wrong way, you get.... uhhh... never mind... moving on...

I'm glad you're enjoying it! I'm hoping though it bodes well with my dad by the end of this. I actually just crunched some numbers for the first set of dates I've looked through and I got to show them to my mom. I'll be posting them up soon.

It is very fun going with friends. I went with friends before, but this is kinda a mix in my opinion, which is like in Jess' case (that was an awesome TR, right?). I can't wait to see how my turns out too, hopefully it will top my first trip (which is going to take A WHOLE LOT!)

Alright I was just checking and LOL, I can only imagine. Autumn is the total opposite. My pets are just too smart to be pets LOL

And you're welcome. Oh! Well, if you ever go during another month, definitely check out that place. It's totally worth checking it out and the CMs working there are a lot more cheerier because nobody comes by so they like seeing people.

Yes, well... actually, just thinking about it there are two, the other being La Cantina de San Angel at the Mexico Pavilion in EPCOT... I think I'll just take down that question and put a new one.

I'll be sure to tell her.

Is it a he or a she? And..

Let it go Tessie, update now!

Geez, Master! And remember, it's Big T, no Tessie.



And yes Tessie, is a Bernese Mountain Dog! Good catch

Hopefully the plan will work out well! I can't wait to hear more!

That's really cool you have friends who like Disney like you do! And so cool you went there with your High School. Mine does NOT have trips like that! Most of my friends like Disney, but not as much as me. Still, I hope it can happen one day!

As you wish...

Thank you Master!

First, I think Introductions are in order for our first post as co-writers to this PTR. Big T is being a bit lazy today. She practically fell asleep by the laptop! That darn dog! Maybe I'll give her a little nip... no, Master won't like that, how about some blackmail-

Maybe I'll just get a bit closer...

Oh, if she knew what was coming to her. So let's start with that introduction I mentioned...

Hiya! I am Autumn, but for the purpose of this TR, I will be known as A or if you want to get professional call me Investigative Reporter A. As Timmy said, I will be getting into the nitty-gritty of all this trip planning. With me around, no stone will be left unturned when it comes to planning for this trip. All those small details or areas of trip planning I'll be the one getting into them since I'm so small. Timmy is still primary planner, but I'm just here to help out. He has actually asked me today to introduce one important, but in some ways small point to this whole trip, but I'll be discussing that later in this update. Moving forward...

Besides my role in this TR, you're probably wondering what got me into the DISer world, well... as you may not know, I am the newest addition to Timmy's household. I was brought here as a birthday present to DYS, Timmy's youngest sister. Though, on the day I was introduced to the place I am now calling home, Timmy met me while his mom was driving me home. I got to know him first hand and this made my relationship with him very special.

I met everyone else including my main owner, DYS. She was very sweet, but I still say Timmy is my true owner. He really worked hard to take care of me. It was through this time that Timmy began bringing me with him to go on the computer. He had just begun getting into the DIS at this time and was working on planning his upcoming trip to the world in February, I'm sure most are familiar with this trip. It was then I started getting interested in this place and this interest grew into an obsession over time. Nobody ever noticed this until I tried to hide in Timmy's park bag. I had Tessie document this:

The plan was working perfectly, but it wasn't until Timmy had to put something else into the bag that he noticed fur in his bag and discovered me. It was then I needed to be removed and put back in my cage, while Timmy left for another magical journey to and through the World then back (of course), I probably never being allowed to enjoy the World first-hand. ):

Then, Timmy, knowing of my dilemma, decided to let me help with the planning for his next trip along with the other pet in the house, Tessie (Big T), who will be stopping by later once she awakes from her mid-morning nap So, yep that's how I got into all of this and with that came obsessions with things non-WDW, but Disney-related such as movies and such. My favorite character is Mary from Cinderella, she is one of the mice and she reminded me of myself. I also like Lady from Lady and the Tramp, but Mary still remains my favorite. My favorite movie is definitely Cinderella and my favorite song is The Work Song, which you probably know as "Cinderelli, Cinderelli, night and day with Cinderelli", yeah, have to stay with my rodent kind

Ok, I'll just get off that subject and into the first topic I would like to discuss to do with Timmy's trip. Drum roll please! *drum roll*...

The DISMeet

Known as probably the best thing about being a DISer is the DisMeet. Timmy has been wanting to do this for quite sometime and nearly made one on his most recent trip, but thus, it never happened, so now he hopes to do one before he ends up in a BIGGER DisMeet, but that is a topic for a later date.

This Meet will of course be in the place that brings us all together- Disney World. If the trip becomes four days, Timmy maybe staying, it can occur anywhere and there won't need to be any plans since I'm definitely getting Park Hoppers for this trip. For the five day and six day trips that could happen, it will have to fit in with the park for that day since, in the interest of money, Timmy will be using regular MYW base tickets, so one park per day. It also could happen at one of the resorts or at the resort the DISers are staying in or at one of the monorail resorts. Downtown Disney is another place, but that's the extent.

Timmy also would prefer if he knew the DISer well enough to actually meet him/her in person. Most of his TR readers he says are good candidates, but any of the TRs he's reading currently, friends on the Teen Board and friends made through TRs, he is perfectly fine with. He'll more than likely ask you to join him on a DISMeet or catch you off guard when the trip dates are settled, but he just wanted me to introduce the conditions.

Now, I would like to send this over to Big T (who has just woken from her long slumber)...

You were BLACKMAILING ME?! Are you kidding me, A? WHY?!

Because you were being lazy, complacent and above all...

I was taking a nap! Now, go away so I can give my introduction without being pestered about how I am. *growls*

Alright, enough of that, Hey y'all! My name is Tessie, but like with A is for annoying over there, for the sake of this PTR I will be going by Big T most of the time. RST is just used very plainly, but I much prefer Big T. I am co-writing with Evil A and Timmy as a part of helping with the TR aspects of the trip, the things you hope to see in a TR (Food pictures, lime green Mickey, etc.). I've also been asked to take over the TR games, which I'll get into later. Now, I would like to give you some information on how I ended up in this place happily named DisFreakdom.

So, I've been in the family much longer than A has. I was here during the before Disney World times and was there to witness the growth of the Disney obsession up until the first trip and was sadly left home just like A for that first trip. It got me interested and after peaking in on Timmy's many browsings (?) to DisBoards, I was interested and thought the place was pretty cool.

It was then Timmy's second trip came up and I had the same idea as A. This was probably the first time we really got to talk. We were both very desperate to get into the bag to go with Timmy. Here is a picture A took of my sad attempt:

I had a feeling I was too big, but that didn't stop me. Thus, I tried to help A with getting her inside the bag, also taking pictures along the way since we had to document this moment and we miraculously made it work until... Timmy stuck his hand in the bag and our plan was foiled. It was a sad day for both of us. I think this was when our Disney depression began :'(

It was then, Timmy graciously asked A and I to help him with his PTR for his to-be trip. We were very excited and of course had to join in on it all. We both got different jobs, which made it more of a unique experience for both of us. Even though we may never see the World, we at least have the knowledge of what's happening and it was partially us that there to make this all happen.

All of my magical journey aside, I have to get down to the first order of business to make this upcoming TR a bit more fun for some with... a trip mascot! I've had the pleasure of hearing adventures of these creatures through TRs such as Liesa's (All7OfUs)'s ABC's of Trip Reporting TR and Danielle's (IheartDDuck)'s various Trip Reports. It was thought as something to keep Timmy's friends' occupied and just another new element to the chaotic world of Timmy's TRs to add a mascot for this trip. We have found some candidates and would like to introduce them:

CANDIDATE #1: STITCH (For TR purposes, 626)

CANDIDATE #2: G-3

CANDIDATE #3: KOVU (May be used for TR purposes, S-K)

CANDIDATE #4: IGNACIOUS (I think he was named something else)

CANDIDATE #5: GOOFY (Maybe for TR purposes, The Goof)

Timmy has requested of me to ask you to help him with picking out who this mascot will be, so he wants everyone to vote on which mascot they would like to see in this TR. He asks that you take into consideration that this mascot would be carried around the parks and end up in a variety of situations and the situations can become more or less with the character, so remember to think about that. Thank you

And because I'm now the head of the PTR games, I must announce that we are going to take down the trivial pursuit for the reason the concept doesn't exactly for this PTR when one of my TRs is still yet to finish. So I'll be changing it to one of my favorite games "Where in the World?".

"Where in the World?" is a game some maybe familiar with, Timmy originally discovered from AllEars.net, where one of the resident photographers, cuts up a picture down to one specific detail and you have to guess where it is. He introduced this to me and I changed it up to make it a bit different. I will post four pictures and all of them are from two places, attractions, rides, etc. in Disney, you just have to guess which ones are from one and which ones are from the other. I won't mention what the exact "places" are either or if they are related in anyway. I may end up changing it up a little and I'll alert you when that happens. We'll start off today with these ones:

#1

#2

#3

#4

To answer send Timmy a PM with the two "places" listed and the coinciding picture numbers after the place, here is an example:

Space Mountain- #2
Splash Mountain- #1, #3, #4

Remember, it can be any number and anything in Disney World. The point count goes as follows--

4 points if you got it all correct
3 points if you got one picture wrong or two if it's split evenly (2 and 2)
2 points if you got an attraction wrong or got two wrong if not split evenly (3 and 1)
1 point if you got the attractions right but the coinciding pictures wrong, or only got one picture correct

I hope that isn't too hard to figure out. If you give me a more specific place then listed or exact locations and such, I'll give out extra points. I'm hoping you'll all enjoy this and please give me legitimate answers. If I continue to get crazy answers from a person, I will start deducting points.

It's nice getting to share all this with you and I hope to see you soon!

Yes, thank you all, I'll send it back to Timmy now

Thank you guys, wonderful job! And I hope I'll be receiving emails for the new WITW game Ta ta for now!

Haha aww!

Hopefully the plan will work out well! I can't wait to hear more!

That's really cool you have friends who like Disney like you do! And so cool you went there with your High School. Mine does NOT have trips like that! Most of my friends like Disney, but not as much as me. Still, I hope it can happen one day!

Yes I hope. I'm probably going to finish crunching numbers or work on getting them done today.

My friends don't exactly like Disney like I do. They enjoy it there, but they aren't "OMG, I LOVE DISNEY<3333!" That kinda thing, but always get into it when they are there
