When you said leak worthy, I thought you meant the grocery bags....
Cheesecake Factory. Everything except for the Cheesecakes and Bread are made from scratch onsite.....I know because I made lots of that stuff during training.
OH, that's too funny! I mentioned seeing Tinkerbelle and "leaking"- can you imagine what kind of disaster might ensue if
THAT happened??!!
Honestly, the corn cakes that we got last time were awful. maroo's pasta looked great, and our enchilada were super, but blech, the corn cakes were mush-city! I think we just ordered wrong. But, that's interesting that it IS all by scratch. I wouldn't have guessed that. And I find it hilarious that their signature dish isn't even made there.
very cool! so he brings clean water to people? what a great job.
yep, i'm up for one! the only thing that would prevent me from coming is if i get a last-minute transcript order or if i'm VERY pregnant at that point.
You got it. He brings clean water to places where they've had to carry buckets from the street into hospitals and schools since the Soviets left.
Cool! We'll count you in! So, I have Shannn, you, JPFamilyMom (although, she's vanished into thin air lately), maroo, Lauren, me, Sandy?? and....???
This time I'd love to find a comfy hangout place to sit and talk. Any ideas?? The Marriot pool?? Paneras? (my fave)
You stand in front of a touch screen and you respond to a few questions like are there one or two people, male or female etc. Then they play of a Disney cartoon that you are to dub your voice onto. They play it through once with the vocals running and then the second time they run it without, but with the words along the bottom of the screen karaoke style. When your done they play the same scene back with your voices as the vocals. You can try again if you want to improve it.
My friend and I were laughing ourselves silly over the results. I've found I'm a horrible evil witch, but my friend has a talent for sounding deliciously evil. I was a much better Snow White.
That actually sounds pretty fun to do. I can see us doing that for a little while to cool off and have some giggles. Too bad they don't offer to record it for you and sell you a CD of it. I'd buy something like that as a souvenir.
I'm hysterical over what your dad said.
Just on a side note, you don't have to do the animation tour in order to meet the characters (like the Incredibles and Sorceror Mickey). If you go into the Animation Gift shop, you can enter the character area through the "exit" doors. It's a nice option if you don't want to do the tour.
If you like that, you should read his Operating Room antics.

I think you were MIA then.
OK, I really do want to find the Incredibles and the Cars. But I'll bet when I go in Sept. I'll get the UP characters, which I"m not so excited about. LOVED the movie, but not so excited about meeting a boy scout or old man.
Doing the tour isn't something I"m opposed to. I think it sounds kind of relaxing and fun. I'll give anything a try once.
I would have a hard time coming up with top ten list for MGM - so bravo to you for trying. Its definitely my least favorite park. But, I will admit, with the addition of TSMM, and our discovery of the animation academy, it has begun to grow on me. We do love Fantasmic, but missed it last time due to rain. And we typically don't do ToT or RnR because our kiddos are scaredy-cats. So there just isn't that much for us - at least to take up a whole day. Although I do love the restaurants there - did you mention eating there?
Well, nothing really stands out to me AT ALL in the eating dept. I've done Sci-Fi, and it was meh. PRime Time looks okay, but, I actually have another idea that I'd rather try out, but not in the park. I'll be getting to that in a few weeks. Hollyweird Brown Derby looks good, but expensive- I would love to try the grapefruit cake, though.
