Glendmax Bday Trip w/DISers and HOT Men!

Glenda,

I always love your trip reports! I remember reading about your trip with your Mom, and it was great!

I am very jealous of a trip with a brand new internet friend! Sounds like an amazing time!

You are quick with the updates! Keep them coming!
 
The Beverly videos are very funny...especially funny to hear Glenda in the background - "Did you like it? Is it good?" :rotfl2:
 
It sounds like you had a blast. It is fun to go with a friend every now and then - instead of always going solo!

I have a quick question - did you create the videos using your digital camera? I was just wondering cause I think I have that capability on my camera - but I wasn't quite sure.

:)
 
LOVE the beverly videos!!! we didn't get to do that this past trip, but i plan on going over there in september! oh, and bonus - sara bareilles is playing in the background and that girl can SANG! :thumbsup2
 

I cannot wait to look at the video when I get home. My Mom and Aunt tried the beverly in June and they did not think it was that bad. I will have to post the picture of my cousins from our trip in July last year - - they.... did not think it was so good... :rotfl2:
 
I love the "herd" pic heading to Soarin' I plan on being a part of that in Sept!! Where people really getting mean that early in the morning?? That is going to make a very long day for the people they were with:rotfl:

You looked super cute in your dress. I have to say I like it better than the head gear!! But why only where it at Disney?? I would wear that anywhere.

So MM did not like the Beverly? I can't understand why not:rotfl2: I love that some stranger let you video him tasting it. You do have a way with people!!
 
We (my 12 year old son and I) are loving your TR. You and MM are just too funny. We cannot wait to hear about all your fun times.
 
Just found your report today & I am enjoying it so far.:cool1:

You & MM sound like you had a magical time, but where are the HOT men?:rotfl: Can't wait to read more.
 
Glenda

I'm loving your trip report. You sure know how to tell a story. :thumbsup2

Your not alone I rode ToT for the first time in May and did not like it. Nope not at all. It almost :scared1: the #$%#@ out of me.

I'll be staying at POFQ for the first time in October. Can't wait to see more pics and read your comments about the resort.

Remember to bring your pics to the Baltimore DisMeet in July....would love to see them.
 
Just dropping in to say that I absolutely LOVE your TR. You two are so hilarious and cute. Oh and where are the hot men that you promised? :rotfl2:
 
Hooray! More vicarious fun with Glenda...and MadiMouse, too! And how exciting, to hear news of a beau -- I hope he is doing all right with the recent loss of his friend.

And I have a feeling I know what kind of hot men you saw...were they wearing red shirts, perhaps? ;)
 
OMG I am laughing so hard over here. I have only watched a few of the video's because I have to crash BUT

...watching those video's made me miss hanging out with you! Can't wait till Sep

....I love how all thos people on ME are looking at you like your crazy (which we know you are but they didn't!)

...when you were at EPCOT talking about how you were GOING to EPCOT and Madi was so busy being a ham in the camera when you asked her what time it was it took her a couple seconds to respond :lmao:



Thanks for the laughs as usual.
 
I am so glad I read MeMom's report tonight to see your report started.

great update and pics.

I had the same waitress at Boatwrights.

Seems like you are both having a great time.
 
Day 2 Cont.

In the last installment, it was the evening of June 7th, and MadiMouse (MM) and I were at MGM where SHE had just gotten off of Tower of Terror (ToT).

(FYI: I can't stand posts that soley uses abbreviations so I'll try to clue some of the newbies in on what some of them are since I will NOT be spelling everything out)

We then made our way over to Rockin Rollarcoaster (RnR). I would LOVE to ride this, but I can't stand sudden take offs. The most I could do was the Volcano Coaster at Kingsdominion in Virginia. I also rode Flight of Fear at the same park, and I'm convinced that some of my electrons, short term memory and the part of your brain that allows you to reason, is still on that ride!

But back to the trip . . . The line for RnR was LONG, but we spotted a Single Rider Line. As we walked up the ramp, the guy in front of us reminded me of the guy I'm seeing - but not as tall, not as cute. MM said he was checking me out, but I didnt notice. If anything he seemed nervous when I pulled out my camera.

Here's a shot of the crowd, and you'll see the guy:



The line for this ride is REALLY cool! Especially when your in the recording studio. I didnt get any shots because it was a bit dark. I stayed in line the whole time with MM.

I was both thrilled and freightened with the speed the coaster took off!



I took the chicken exit, and did the walk of shame to meet MM as she was getting out of the car.

She LOVED it!

Now it was time to head over to Fantasmic. Now some of us who have been a few times know to go to the bathroom (and get snacks) BEFORE you go into the stadium so you can get your seats, and hold onto them. Besides, since you have to get there about 45mins before, you might as well be comfortable.

When we finally reached the stadium after walking up that long path, it was a little more than half full.

IMG_2229.jpg




While waiting for the show to start, a young couple sat next to me. I didnt realize that they werent the same ones who'd left earlier - who were part of a larger party. A woman told them that the seats were taken. As they were leaving the guy said "You shouldn't hold seats". (Well you know that made me mad! IF you have a chance to walk around insted of sitting for 45 mins, and you have 3 or 4 other people who can watch your seat. Go for it!) As a result, the woman tried to sit sorda in the middle of the space and had to sit awkwardly. So I (DISer that I am), took my backpack and put it on the seat long ways so she could slide back over. And I told her not to worry about the seats! :snooty:

As it started to get dark, MM and I started pulling out our glow jewelry. An English woman in her early 60s behind us started asking us what they were. So we told her, and wonderful, I'll-share-my-happiness-with-you, MM gave her 2 links to make a necklace. She was DE-LIE-TED! Do you hear me? DEE-LIEEE-TED!!!

IMG_2233.jpg


IMG_2234.jpg


The stadium REALLY filled up! Good thing we got there early!



Then it really started to get dark, and the announcements started. "Welcome to Fantasmic . . . " YEAH IT'S GONNA START!!!! " . . . in just 10 mins you - " BOOO!!!!!! START NOW!!!! So after about 3 of these, I started talking like the female recording, but adding in my own minutes: "In just 45 minutes . . ." The guy in front of us was cracking up!

Of course the show was great! And I cheered, and yelled for Mickey to fight! I took lots of clips. Here's one, and some pics:

After the show, the English woman was going to take off the necklace to give it back to MM. But of course she refused. The woman was soooo tickled. She hugged and kissed us both!

On the way out of the show, they lead us down a LONG path behind the scenes which led us all the way to the front turnstiles! It felt like we'd been kicked out!

But what's that? As we were walking out, we saw some people walking back in. Huh? I looked, and standing at the turnstiles were a BUNCH of men. What? Is this a T.D. Jakes Manpower convention? Who are these men?
 
Day 2 Cont.

MM and I were completely confused when we saw these men. The first that caught our eye were two BEE-YOU-TEE-FUL Black men, one with Dread Locs, talking to each other. That did it. Who were they? How can we get back in. I walked over to the ticket counter and asked one of the guys. He told me that it was GAY WEEKEND and tonight they had MGM from 10pm to 1am. :hyper: oh wait . . . gay, he said gay right . . . :(

After he walked away, we noticed a change in the Disney-esque MGM music. It went from "Lah - Lah - Lah - Magic" to " BOOM BOOM BOOM - - - BOOM BOOM BOOM ". I peek down the street where The Hat is, and all I see is smoke/fog and flashing lights. Ok, we REALLY needed to get in!!!! So as we're standing there, a nice looking (but short) guy comes over. "You guys comming in? You have boyfriends? You know what this is right?" We're like yes, we are taken - one married, one dating, yes we know what it is, yes we need to get in!!!! So he says that he doesnt have his tix yet, but his "friend" is getting him one. So we're waiting with him. So his friend comes. But he's not getting us in, only him. :worried: How 'Bout he tells us that it costs $95 to get in, and Taylor Dane is performing. The only rides that were going to be open were ToT and RnR.

We start talking though, and his friend and I live in the same city, and he works near my house. But still no ticket.

Well, MM and I decide to sit and watch the guys for a minute. Then here they come . . . the MOTHER LOAD . . . SHUTTLE BUSES! Oh, yes, MM and I REALLY made ourselves comfortable then.

LOADS AND LOADS of some of the most attractive, well dressed, good smelling men that you have EVER seen in your life!!! We were stunned! :eek: I have NEVER seen men that attractive in my REAL life EVER!!! I'm talking all heights, races, Nationalities, and languages.

Now you have to remember, alot of these men have probably been treated like CARP, and were a bit defensive-looking at people looking back at them. But if only they knew! I was in awe, and a bit sad at the same time! ALL OF THESE FINE MEN ARE GAY!!!!! Well, what are we to do but sit and stare! popcorn::
I wanted to pull my camera out sooooooooo badly and get some good pics and video. But what if some of them were on the down-low and ripped the camera out of my hands, thinking I was trying to spy! So unfortunantly, Lady DISers, all I have to remember this moment is my memory - and oh what memories they are . . .

After awhile we even called DISer Lan to see if she wanted to come next year on Gay weekend and follow the guys around from park to park. She said "YEAH"!!!! HA! So there is a chance that there may be an all girls trip next year to Gay Weekend to stare at men we can't have!

Finally, the CMs were trying to get the straight visitors to leave the area. I believe some were making comments, and I saw that some had disgusted looks on thier faces. So before we left, we took this pic:

IMG_2256.jpg


While we were over there, a male couple were waiting. So I started talking to one of them. I asked if there was a website with the events on it. When he turned to face me, he looked like the fantasy Scandinavian Ski Instructor you would see in movies. He was SUPER FINE! He looked like a real-life Race Bannon from Johnny Quest. He was about 6'2" had a square jaw, perfect teeth, and when he smiled, his whole face smiled. :cloud9: But I'm sure when I talked to him, it sounded like "I waa dah doo haa baah doo" giggle giggle:cutie:

Well, saddend that the man-watching event was over, the 2 of us made the slow walk to the stop for French Quarter. As we were going over, a CM asked where we were going, then said he would get us a bus. It was then I really looked around and noticed that there were NO buses. I looked at my watch, and we'd been out there for OVER AN HOUR!!!!!! When the bus came, the guy told us that he'd been sent JUST TO GET US!!!!! :lmao: So imagine, me and crazy MM on the bus with just the driver, in the dark with GLOW jewerly on!!!! WE HAD A BALL!

The driver was telling us stories (all of which I wont share) and we were laughing and dancing! One thing I will tell is, the driver said that some of the most interesting runs are from Downtown Disney at close. One couple in the back of the bus, even started getting to "know" each other. WOW!

Traffic was a bit backed up getting out, because of all the men comming in. We saw some FABULOUS cars, and tricked-out motor coaches!

Well, this was certainly an interesting evening. I just wish I could've taken pics :(

That night, we went back to our room, ate Beignets in our Disney Pjs, and talked about all the men we saw . . . .

MM noticed an envelope on the table. It was a signed Birthday Card from Mickey Mouse to me!

What a way to end such a FUN day!


Comming up: Moving to the Animal Kingdom Lodge!
Go to Page 9!
 
I will be there with you guys next year to look at the fine men. The play-by-play I was getting on the phone made my little sad night at home better :rotfl:
 
Just in case I run out of time and don't get to everybody, I just want to thank all of you for reading my report, and enjoying hearing about all the fun we had. :wave2:

PrincessV - Glad you liked my dress! Good to know that I looked ok.

Diz Fanatic - Thanks for singing Happy Birthday to me!

FoodRocks - I've had the Mezzo Mix, and I did like it! If I stand in line with someone else on ToT, I'll try to look for the gift shop items.

snowbell - I got the dress at the Disney Store at the mall. No pigtails don't work in real life (trust me, I know). And I can't believe your Mom and Aunt didnt hate the "Beverly" drink!

wiggles - Sorry we missed each other this time!

ChelleinNC - Unfortunantly, I don't think the heat as anything to do with how rude the people are. In fact, I told MM that if these people are this aggressive and rude on vacation, how are they in real life!

Garcia - Those crawfish cakes were good! I guess they replaced the crab cakes.

Punkin - Have you read the bit about the Hot Men yet? Maybe we could learn a "Flygirl" routine to get their attention next year! Thanks for telling me who was singing at Club Cool!

TCKK
- We had so much fun, that I have to edit alot of what we said and did! HA!

EpcotLove - So glad to see you! I hope trips match up again soon!

VandyFan - Sorry I couldn't SHOW you any HOT men!

MadiMouse - "Get it Get it!!!" "I want to climb it, climb it"



Aubriee - I see you are rounding up a mob to get me on Space Mountain - wiat - are those torches and pitch forks outside my window!!!

CJhinch - Thanks for enjoying my reports!

Philadisney
- When I go back in Sept, I'm going to try to get more "Beverly" video! :lmao:

Dinseyfan 06 - My digital camera takes video as well. It is a Canon Powershot A620.

Wirki
- Yes, people were aggressive going to Soarin early in the morning! As for wearing certain things only to WDW - when you're single, you dont want to scare off any "potentials" in your REAL life! I wouldnt be caught dead by someone I was interested in with "head gear" or that Mickey dress on! HA!

IlovemythreeC's - I'm glad you and your son are enjoying my report! (I'll try to keep it Rated PG!)

tink1957 - Glad you found me yesterday! Welcome! :wave2:

ttester9612 - HEY! Can't wait to meet you in person next month!

MAF - Hope you weren't too disappointed by the Hot Men! OH! I forgot to mention in the report that many of them were REALLY buff!

girlbomb - You guessed right! They did have on red shirts! I hope you go back to WDW soon. I really enjoyed your report!

Charleston Princess - Remember, you can always stand in line with them, and pretend you were on it, as you exit! :rolleyes1

MainStMandy - I can't wait to see you in Sept! Hopefully we can do some fun video clips together! Like this one:




scottny - Hey Scott! Yes, we had a great time! I hope we get to meet in Sept.!
