Yeah, I am near positive you do have to go on part of main highway! Imagine that...seeing an irate woman holding a map, stomping down the highway mumbling to herself, "I'm going to find my own way to walk!"

That is EXACTLY what I picture every time I think of it.....or trampling through the woods and swampland with her trusty map saying "it doesn't look very far, I WILL walk there!".

OK - this wasn't overheard, but it was too funny to not share. It happened at DL, but we still laugh about it today.
After enjoying the Tiki Room for the first time (nice respite for our feet, etc.), our DD (age 4 at the time), was very hesitant about leaving at the end of the show. We kept insisting, and she kept shying further back into the room.
Finally, we sat her down and asked what was wrong. She said "I don't want to go yet". So we explained that the show was done and we needed to make room for the next people coming in. She said "I know, but I don't WANT to go back to the hotel!"
Puzzled, my DH and I looked at each other - it was only 4 pm - nap time was past and dinner wasn't for a bit (and we weren't eating at the hotel). DH told her - "We don't have to go back to the hotel, honey."
She said "Yes we do" DH - "No we don't" (repeat several times...)
Finally she burst out and started crying "Yes we do because it's RAINING!!!"
She thought it was REALLY raining outside because of the story line in the show. We finally (with the help of some CM's) got her out of there and dried her tears.
My husband keeps threatening to use it as his embarrasing story for her boyfriends when she gets older.
Last year as we were checking out of our resort, we went to check our baggage and get our boarding passings from the preferred airline counter. There were two cast memebr helping us,they ask us were we are going, My husband replys we are flying home to Maine. At which point the Cast memeber says I`m Sorry sir, this service is only available for domestic flights You`ll have to check your baggage and pick up your boarding passes at the airport. We then spent the next 5 -10 minutes trying to convince them the Maine IS part of the United States.
2 weeks after I got home from WDW this past July, I spent a week in Hershey. I had to get "It's a small world" out of my head and replace it with..."hersheys chocolate, hershey's cocolate hershey's chocoate world, wherever I go, not matter how far, there'll always be a hershey bar, hershey's chocolate hershey's chocolate, hershey's great american chocolate bar!" This song makes me miss the old chocolate world ride, before they added those dumb singing cows 
Bet some of you out there have run into them as well. 
It seems that every vacation, no matter where we go, we have at least one run in with "The Loud, Obnoxious Family".
Last Sept DH and I stayed at AKL and were taking the bus to MK about mid-morning. Just before the driver was about to close the door and leave, a large VERY LOUD group, is running for the bus ...Grandparents, teens, school-age kids, and a woman. The bus driver sees them and waits. The whole VERY LOUD group gets on and heads to the back....except for the woman. She stands just inside the doorway and asks the driver how long he will be there. When he says that he is ready to leave, she takes a step back so he can't close the door and tells the driver that her husband should be there soon! She then takes out her cell phone and calls her husband. The bus driver, ever so politely tells her that he really must go, but that another bus will be by in about 15 minutes. To this she replies, "Oh, no. He hates to wait. I'm sure he will be here soon." She then turns to the rest of us on the bus and says....(you're going to love this)
"He will be here soon...you know he saved all year for this, and it is OUR vacation."
So, finally Mr. hate-to-wait-saved-all-year-this-is-my-vacation" comes sauntering up...not in any hurry at all and gets on the bus!
There was a young couple sitting across from us and the young man gets up as Mr. Vacation is getting on, bows and with a very British accent, tells him that his reserved seating is in the back. The whole bus just busted out laughing!
Gotta give that bus driver credit...I'd have smashed that lady with the door and driven off!
That's funny! I never thought about it before, but we always do encounter a loud, rude family!
So cute!
