It's a Jolly Holiday with LL. *FINISHED* Final Update on pg. 58.

:scared1: :scared1: :scared1: Oh my! I don't know how I feel abou this. :rotfl:
Just kidding. I always wondered who went to see them live and now I know. Their music is very catchy and I don't mind the music so much but the creepy costumes, their look is just bizarre to me.
They really do a very good show. DS was so cute during it, he clapped at the right times, and got really excited over it.
I feel like they saw those noodles for swimming and went aha! Doodlebops!

Okay, I don't know if it's because I'm on my second glass of wine, but that struck me as really, really funny.:rotfl2: I truthfully laughed out loud. DH looked at me like I was nuts.

I used to have to watch it with my former step daughters and nephew. The things we do for love.

Glad I could make you laugh. :goodvibes Did he give the "you are a crazy mad woman" look?? DF does that to me often while I am on the DIS.
 
I got a practically perfect possible trip mascot in the mail today. It should be a jolly holiday with this mascot. :goodvibes

I have to experiment before I post pictures, this is all contigent on how the mermaid works out on our cruise.

Is it morally wrong to take a collector's item out of the box if it has been kept in very good condition since 1999?? I feel like a bad person! :confused3

Have you ever seen Toy Story 2? I am a firm believer in that toys WANT to be played with.

I suddenly feel very, very sad for all of DH's Batman action figures, mint in the box....

cue George Michael "Freedom...freedom!"

JK, he'd kill me!:rotfl2:

:rotfl2:

Strangely I am reminded of Steve Carrell in 40-Year-Old with all his mint action figures.

I have dolls that are still meant in the box, too.

I love Toy Story 2. Okay...I agree!

She (I am assumming it's a she) definitely would rather be a trip mascot than stuck in a box.
 
I rest my case. Swimming noodles + musical instruments = Doodlebops.

That has got to be one my favorite movies, funny wise. Ahhh. :lmao:

I think I agree. She/He is giving me the evil eye from the box.
 
For the last two nights I have been working on this updated itinerary. I am pretty upset that I can't get it formatted the way I want on here, but that is just something I am going to have to live with. It's good to challenge my OCD every once in awhile, keeps me on my toes.

My detailed version is formatted nicely and also has our confirmation numbers. I also put our meal credits and what we will use them for as well as any out of pocket meals we will have to pay for. DF and I will also be doing a photosession either at GF or WL if they have it set up by then so I have put in a few different times we could possibly do that. For planning purposes, I listed all the rides/attractions I want to hit at a certain park the first time we go said park. Obviously, we might not hit them all that first time so, I will be crossing them off and attempting them the next time. Or we might hit them multiple times.

If I have made any mistakes or planning errors to your trained DIS eyes, please let me know. :goodvibes

Awww, shucks! :blush: I feel so special!
It does feel great to have a plan! I think it's a very doable plan as well. The first couple of days are jam packed but I rather have them first and then more relaxed days toward the end. I want time to enjoy the WL.

I was planning on posting this earlier today while I was at work, but I wasn't able too. We were in a posting groove today and it was so enjoyable that I just rode the wave. See I am not completely OCD.

I also like having the plan, last trip I got so frustrated with not having a concrete plan in place that we ended up leaving early. That is just not going to happen, at least not out of frustration. If we are done, then we are done or if something better comes up..say a night in Cinderella's Castle :hyper: I am willing to tweak. There will be no tweaking out of frustration.

I don't think I am going to plan absolutely every ride to what order we will do them. If we see a photo op I don't want to miss out because I am rushing to an attraction.

I am really happy about the amount of time we are spending in Magic Kingdom as well. I won't feel rushed and I will be able to enjoy it. I am secretly hoping we can hop over there on our last morning for a goodbye.

I also love the brainstorm about going over to Poly to catch the Electrical Water Pageant. I didn't want to miss it but Spectromagic wasn't going to be running the other nights we had open for MK. It's going to be a jammed packed day but it will be worth it. Plus we can nap and sleep in the next morning.

Needless to say, after all that blathering, I am really happy with the plan. :cloud9:

Admit it... you just wanted to get rid of the Doodlebops. (and I completely understand why!) ;)

The itinerary looks great! I am really looking forward to hearing how you like your resturants!

And I want to see pictures of the Water Pageant, please. It sounds really pretty!

I can't wait to share pictures and reviews. I am hoping my Trip Report can last until it's time for another PreTrip Report. :rotfl2:

Have you seen the pictures on allears of the Water Pageant?? They are beautiful!!
