How interesting that you keep getting asked if you work there!

Read that they shut Space down because they found a lady unconscious and they have to do an inspection.

I'm in i am a disney addict i have not been able to go as much as I would like only about every 5 to 6 years (thats all I can afford) but this is a great way to experience and to get new ideas so i make the best of the little time i get at disney.

 

[jpmandan]

Only 8 more days for me. Hope SM is fixed by than.

Coral Reef was great. Had the lobster raviolis, delicious. So was the Baileys & Jack mousse.

Seeing how tomorrow is supposed to be 95 degrees I changed my plan. After sleeping in again I'll have to check out and in for the extra 6 nights. Then off to AK for a few hours, rest at the room, off to dinner at Chef Mickey's, then over to MK. I will be there until 3:30am guaranteed. Gotta do it.

Maybe then I can ride space mountain. According yo a ap I have it says it's still closed.

Talk to ya tomorrow.

 

[bhbob]

OK now I see why space was down all day

Glad you enjoyed Coral Reef and can't believe you didn't have the Wave for dessert!

Have fun today and try to stay cool.

 

[Corrine 1973]

I am so glad you enjoyed Coral Reef, we will be having dinner there a week from tomarrow and are very excited about it. Keep cool to day and have fun staying up till 3:30 am.

Well last night wasn't fun. I can back to room after CR because I was feeling blah. By 9pm I had a fever going. But I so cold too. I was coughing up gunk too. I just wanted to sleep. It took a while but I think I got to sleep around 11. I woke up at 5am feeling fine, no more fever. Went right back to sleep and woke up at 9:30am feeling fine except for the sniffles still. Glad that was over.

I went to the desk and did the check out and in.

Hopped a bus to AK to see what I missed, ride a couple of favorites and to say goodbye since that will probably be the last time there.

Shrimp poboy at restaurantasaus was tasty. To big to eat as q sandwich so I tossed some lettuce on it and ate it as a salad with the sauce as a dressing. Good stuff.

Walked the tiger trail and squirted so riders on Kali.

It fringin' hot!

Noticed that AK has the worst cellphone reception of the parks.

I headed back to sports to rest all afternoon, I won't leave until dinner at Mickey's. Then in MK until I get kicked out.

Tomorrow is sleep in of course and lunch at Whispering Canyon. And that's all I planned.

I WILL be sitting on a bench in the hub at park closing.

Also on Friday the 27th I'll be watching the fireworks from Poly for my last night just like my first night almost 3 weeks earlier.

Later

I know you're sad because your trip is ending this week, but that means my trip is beginning! We leave to start our trip on your last day

 

[bhbob]

Well the food at CM was for
getful. Got picture with Goofy like
I wanted.

Currently sitting on a bench between Adventurland and Main St. getting ready to watch the MSEP And fireworks

Gotta go, starting

 

[bhbob]

Just love the nighttime shows. I tear up when I watch them. I'm an old softy.

I find it funny to watch the masses head down Main St. A tradition of my kids and I if we are in a crowd like that is to go "moooo moooo" always makes us laugh. Try it next time.

Well time to get up and go on some attractions.

 

[bhbob]

It's EMH time. Wide awake and feeling good, should have no problem going 3 1/2 more hours.

Got to ride space ... the que is much longer, neater and no way as claustrophobic as Disneylands. The loading stations are huge! The ride is way too rough! It hurt. Going to try the left side soon but right now I have to say Disneyland has the better ride.

Probably last report tonight unless my phone battery plays nice.

You're very right about DLR... it's got a better ride, as far as smoothness goes on SM. I rode it again last week when I was there (WDW) and thought I was gonna be knocked outta my car!!! I can't say I remember it being *SO* jostle-y before the refurb.... seems like it's faster and rougher..

Oh well!

Hope you closed the park!!

 

[bhbob]

Stayed in the MK past 3:30am even took a picture of the clock on MS

Left side of space still sucked. I want a fast smooth space flight.

The coverings are off the back side of the castle, looks nice and new.

Now I'm really mad they took away CBJ and replaced it with Pooh. A VERY inferior version of pooh. The one here is much better than the piece of pooh we have at DL.

DL 's Buzz is superior. The hand held blasters do it

Had a full bus back to the All Stars

Got to sleep about 5 woke up at 9. Might come back to rest after lunch at WL.

 

[bhbob]

Sittin' & chillin' in lobby of the Wilderness Lodge. This place is cool but again I would never see money like this. My ultimate dream place is always the Contemporary. Oh well, not every dream comes true. At least I did finally make it WDW.

Time for lunch, I don't think I can resist the skillet

OHHH, enjoy some ribs and chicken for me, Bob!!! I agree- not just the money for me, but being from the Pacific Northwest, it'd be too much like "home"- I want something exotic in my theming, like CBR or CSR. Have a fun day!

I thought Space Mountain was WAY too rough when we were there earlier this month too. I know it wasn't that bad before. I really didn't enjoy it this time, and I used to!

 

[sahm2two]

are all the window covering off of cinderella's castle? or just in the back? We're eating there in 8 days, so I'm curious

Looking forward to seeing what you thought about WCC, we're eating there next week too!

 

[bhbob]

Lunch was. Average. Much better ribs at flame tree.
