It was definitely weird. It all worke dout in the end, though. I think because he came over and offered to open our crabs, and I said no, and HHBG said sure, he got confused. He was a good waiter.

Hi Angela!

Great update, as usual. I'm imagining a huge pile of crab carcasses like the picture that Buzz posted of Linnie back a few months ago on his trippie (May It Rest in Peace). Was the table full of carcasses? Did you really eat Pinchy?

Hope you're having a good week with the kids home! Mine have been home for three weeks now, but we only have six weeks before school starts again for DD7!

Chapter 17: SURPRISE!!

Aurora (Look how thrilled Spencer is):

Spencer's to cute. Especially when he looks bored in this pic.


Spencer’s girlfriend....I mean Jasmine....he could NOT keep his eyes off of her jewels.

Spencer did look really happy.


And of course, Belle. Why do they have her coming to the “royal breakfast” in her peasant wear??? It doesn’t make sense to me.....

She should have been in her gown.


“I wish I could dress like a hooker in Disney world!”

OK you had better restraint than I did. She would have gotten an earful from me. She's a little girl and I loved the ariel costume. It is one of my favorite. I seen grown woman wear next to nothing in the park last week. But a little girl in aerial costume!!! Come on. She is soo adorable. That woman is a *&^%$ and that putting it nicely.

 

[whogirl'smom]

I've never heard of a waiter cracking your crablegs for you, either. Maybe then I would order them more often (nod to my laziness)! Looks like you have a bunch of good updates coming up!

 

[sandym718]

Ooh, the spoilers for the upcoming updates are GOOD!! I'm particularly looking forward to the lifeguard one!

 

[mrsksomeday]

Bill and I love the Spencer and Jasmine pictures . That horrible woman that said that about the hooker better be glad Bill and I weren't around, Bill would have accidently bumped her to the ground with the wheelchair for you .

Where is the next installment ? Bill and I need something to read while he is healing. We are both bored out of our minds and need your humor asap!!

 

[HeatherSue]

brianna asks about Tessa, too. "mommy, do we know her? What's her name? Why don't we know her?"

She is SO cute!!!

I can't wait for your next installment! I love reading about your dining experiences. It reminds me never to eat at any of the restaurants that you like. Henry and I both hate seafood (and don't get me started on that French stuff)! We like nice boring food!

I forgot to mention how mad it made me to hear what that woman said about Brianna's outfit. How dare she!? She looked absolutely adorable!

 

[brookelizabeth]

Too bad, HHBG wasn't feeling well for your night out, I hope he felt better the next day.

A guest goes postal on a lifeguard so mommy doesn't have to.....

Whooo-boy...this one sounds pretty interesting!

Chapter 19: Why Adults ride Dumbo....

Day Six started with the wailing of HHBG’s alarm clock. Our mission: To make it to the rope drop at MK for our second day. We were on a mission. Dumbo was our goal. WHY were we going back on Dumbo??? Well, it’s Spencer’s favorite movie, and Iw as informed by my children that we HAD to go on it.

We got the kiddos dressed, showered ourselves, dressed, got the remaining sun block out of the triple locked secure area and put it on the kids, and ourselves, and we were off.

We got to the line for the boats nice and early....along with everyone else. Woah, there were a lot of people waiting for that boat? Was it a sign of things to come??

Waititng for the boat:

The first boat that showed up was the little one. We didn’t make it onto it....so much for rope drop. 15 minutes later, the big boat showed up, and we all piled onto it. As the boat rounded the curve, and we got the visual of the front of the MK, we were greeted by a HUGE MASS OF PEOPLE!!! Where did they all come from!? This was going to be a rough day....

Woah...

Now, if you recall from my PTR, the UoG rated this day an 8, as opposed to the rest of the days we were in WDW which were mostly 5s and 6s. I have NO IDEA why a Thursday would be so crowded, but it certainly was. Wow. I will never go to WDW during 10 days if I can help it.

The boat landed and we all piled out and headed to the turnstiles. As the boat was docking, we had heard the end of rope drop, so we were still pretty early. They were letting people in the CM turnstiles, so we hopped on a short line and got into the park.

I just thought these pics were cute....

We got into the already relatively long line for Dumbo. Behind us in line was an older lady and her friend. No kids with them. Now, I don’t have any problems with people who ride Dumbo as adults, but it always seems to me that, there are so many other rides in the park, why bother with a little ride that goes in little circles and always has a huge line to get onto it??

Well, my kids were being cute, and they ended up starting a conversation with these ladies. It turns out that the one lady had been to the Magic kingdom the day it opened with her father, and he had taken her on Dumbo. He had died a few months earlier, and she wanted to ride Dumbo in memory of her father. Well, I was blown away. Her friend was not planning on riding, just was there in line with her, because she was so emotional about the whole trip to WDW.

We kept her distracted with stories about the parks and our trips, and her friend had a nice conversation with the kids about their outfits, and how I had made them. Finally, we were up, she gave the kiddos big hugs, and went off to her elephant. We didn’t see her again, but I still think about her sometimes.

After Dumbo, Brianna wanted to ride “the horsies”, so we went over to the carousel. While we were riding, I saw a little girl in a Cinderella mouse-made dress, and thought “hey maybe her mom is on the disoutique”....but I was too shy to say anything to her. Both Brianna and the little girl smiled and waved at each other, and both of us mothers complimented the other on the dress, but we never said anythign about the DIS. Later, I found out that the mom HAD been a dISBoutiquer. Bleh. That’ll learn me.

After the carousel, we went to Philharmagic, which I always enjoy. Then Peter Pan and Small World. The kids didn’t want to go on Winnie the Pooh, so we skipped it. There were a lot of people in the park at that point, so we asked the kids what they wanted to do. They immediately piped up that they wanted to go to the “log ride!”

We walked over and got fast passes for Splash, then got into the stand-by line, which was about a 30 minute wait at that point. It took nearly the whole thirty minutes to get onto Splash, and we rode...and AGAIN, Mommy got all wet. It didn’t matter WHERE I sat ont hat ride, the splash always landed on ME.

We got off, and had another 10 minutes for our fast passes. We just stood by the fast pass entrance,a dn the CM took pity on us and let us in.

After riding Splash again, we got off to a complete MOB scene. You could barely walk. We had to pick the kids up, because we were so scared we were going to lose them. We decided to stop and get some ice cream and see if the crowds dispersed some.

The crowds did not lighted up, and the kids requested going back to the hotel and going inthe pool, so we walked over to the boat and went back to Wilderness Lodge.

Coming soon: Another guest goes off on a Lifeguard so Mommy doesn’t have to.

I had never heard of it either.

It's not a good story.

Bill and I love the Spencer and Jasmine pictures . That horrible woman that said that about the hooker better be glad Bill and I weren't around, Bill would have accidently bumped her to the ground with the wheelchair for you .

Where is the next installment ? Bill and I need something to read while he is healing. We are both bored out of our minds and need your humor asap!!

I hope Bill feels better soon!!

She is SO cute!!!

It sounds like we have very different tastes! Well, except in clothes for our kids.

Too bad, HHBG wasn't feeling well for your night out, I hope he felt better the next day.



Whooo-boy...this one sounds pretty interesting!

Inetersting.....maddening.....something.....

 

[DisneyJo]

Wow those crowds sound heavy

What a lovely way for that lady to remember her Father

That was nice of the CM to let you on to Splash a little early

 

[camelotcats]

On the TTC:

Wet people getting off of Splash....

OOOOh....Bushes!

But I don't WANT my picture taken, Mommy!!

Uh, we kind of got yelled at for this one....

It took FIVE attempts to take this picture...thsi was the best one....

So, we decided on a good picture:

It made me very happy, as the kids were getting antsy. A little bit of magic goes a long way.

it was a MOB SCENE!

 

[brookelizabeth]

The story of the woman riding Dumbo in honor of her Dad made me tear up, how sweet and speical.

I love Brianna's dress, she looks adorable in it!
