Most Expensive / Moist Exhausting Continued - Final thoughts and wrap-up

[mom3sonstt]

Yeah, Glenn hasn't kept up with the results well enough to have a clue who to crown as the Champion!!!

Hey wait, you mean I don't get one of those cool, meaningless titles to put in my siggie???

Will this do????

 

[glennbo123]

Yes but keep in mind the old saying about Truth being stranger than fiction........

I imagine the video would be quite entertaining!!!

I wonder if anybody in the crowd happened to be rolling-video at that moment. That'd be something, huh?

I never crowned myself champion. Jenbear is the one who used that term and you quickly pointed out it was only for the final round. I just cracked on your accounting abilities to keep up with the overall results....... (not that I make a habit of such things!)

Okay then.

I can just picture that!!!!

Yes I will remember it forever !!!

What did Fantasmic look like from that vantage point?

Love all the pictures.

My favorite are the squinty eye pictures. They crack me up every time.

Thanks. Yeah, those were some that we knew weren't going to be "keepers" when they were being taken. The sun was excruciatingly bright that day.

The world showcase panorama is absolutely beautiful.

Thanks!

I found your trip report last week and really enjoyed reading it.

Thank you! and SnoopyDancer. I like your screen name -- I can hear that "Peanuts" theme song playing in my head.

If you read the whole thing, you deserve a I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

I wish I had read it before I went to WDW because we stayed at Riverside. We might have gone to see Yeehaw Bob if I had known about it. Oh well, that's what future trips are for.

Yep, that's exactly what everybody said to me when I lamented that we missed seeing Wishes. (But you really do need to catch Bob next time. )

I'm glad you and your family enjoyed your vacation and you shared it with us.

Aw thanks, and you are most welcome.

you mean the picture that she had to jump in and ruin, i mean make better.

I think you're talking about the one at Yeehaa Bob? No, I mean these:

Well, with only one chapter to go, I am abandoning all hope of every getting caught up on/reading this one. I will be ready to jump in on page one of the next PTR/TR!

to Part II of the TR Jen! No worries, I understand...it's a lot of reading. I can't believe I wrote this much!

Aw, I love the photo round up! You managed to capture some great pics this trip. They really tell the story, don't they?

Thanks, I tried to grab a pretty representative sample.

Like this one, LOL!

To be honest, I have no idea what story that one tells.

What a fabulous trip! Is it sad that the TR is winding down for you? You may have already answered this but when are you all planning to return??

Yeah, I'm a little bummed that we're winding down. I guess I should've added a day to the trip, which would have equaled a good couple of months for the TR.

We're going back in 2012. I'll give a little more detail in the final chapter.

I have loved following along Glenn, it's been a great, witty journey complete with urine, moistness, squinty eyes, more moistness, and Glenn as Tron! Looking forward to your final thoughts on the trip.

Looking forward? I think you just provided my wrap-up! Can I just copy that?

Will this do????

I love that.

 

[3prettyprincesses]

Thanks, I tried to grab a pretty representative sample.

You certainly succeeded, I loved seeing all the pics again!

To be honest, I have no idea what story that one tells.

My guess is that you either sat on something sharp OR thought about Marv in his b-day suit? Either one would explain it.

Yeah, I'm a little bummed that we're winding down. I guess I should've added a day to the trip, which would have equaled a good couple of months for the TR.

Ha ha! That would have been a great plan, an extra day! It would have bought you at least a month, remember how long poor Lauren was ill in TR time?? About a month!

We're going back in 2012. I'll give a little more detail in the final chapter.

That's great! Will it be during a moist month?

Looking forward? I think you just provided my wrap-up! Can I just copy that?

Sure, for a small fee of course.

 

[glennbo123]

My guess is that you either sat on something sharp OR thought about Marv in his b-day suit? Either one would explain it.

I don't know.....I still appeared to be mostly conscious.

Ha ha! That would have been a great plan, an extra day! It would have bought you at least a month, remember how long poor Lauren was ill in TR time?? About a month!

I forgot about that! Her afternoon and -ly feeling dragged on for a good month!

That's great! Will it be during a moist month?

Sure, for a small fee of course.

Well I'm too cheap, so I'll have to pass. But when I write it, if it sounds similar, I'm telling you right now that I did not plagiarize!

 

[marvali]

My thought about Marv in his b-day suit?

Well, at least we know now where Molly is fixated.......

I don't know.....I still appeared to be mostly conscious.

I know how tough it was on you to hang on like that.....

[3prettyprincesses]

I don't know.....I still appeared to be mostly conscious.

Still conscious? Well, that rules out Marv's b-day suit!

I forgot about that! Her afternoon and -ly feeling dragged on for a good month!

Ha ha! Poor thing, she was sick in TR land for way too long! I was starting to get worried.

Well I'm too cheap, so I'll have to pass. But when I write it, if it sounds similar, I'm telling you right now that I did not plagiarize!

I'm a tad frugal myself which is completely inconsistent with the fact that we stay at deluxe resorts with the deluxe dining plan. Weird.

Plagiarize away my friend! I won't sue you. Promise.

Well, at least we know now where Molly is fixated.......

Oh honey, I was talking about what GLENN might be picturing, not me. Sheesh, you took my quote and messed it all up! Men.

 

[Squidgyness]

Just had to post. You are excellent at making the trip come alive! As well all know, the devil is in the details when it comes to Disney, and it certainly was for this trip report.

You have a wonderful family, and I am not surprised you had a great time with your organisational skills (bar the odd hiccup ) not to mention your extremely good luck with transport (again, the odd hiccup )

Hope you enjoy your next trip, and will definitely stay around to find out when that might be!

Most importantly, thankyou for giving me 3 days of unadulterated pleasure, even if I did have to hide it from my family!

 

[All7OfUs]

HI. Just making sure you didnt' do that last update yet. And I get comments about Marv in his birthday suit instead. Please Glenn, have mercy on us all - GET THAT POST UP!!!

 

[jenbear123]

I'm waiting.....

 

[marvali]

HI. Just making sure you didnt' do that last update yet. And I get comments about Marv in his birthday suit instead.

You say that like it's a BAD thing......

Please Glenn, have mercy on us all - GET THAT POST UP!!!

 

[glennbo123]

Well, at least we know now where Molly is fixated.......

And I don't think this is the first time she's made a comment like that either.

I know how tough it was on you to hang on like that.....

I think it's best if I just say "No comment".

Still conscious? Well, that rules out Marv's b-day suit!

I'm so glad to get that ruled out!

Ha ha! Poor thing, she was sick in TR land for way too long! I was starting to get worried.

She was!

I'm a tad frugal myself which is completely inconsistent with the fact that we stay at deluxe resorts with the deluxe dining plan. Weird.

That's why you're frugal -- to save money on other things to pay for those things you value.

Just had to post. You are excellent at making the trip come alive! As well all know, the devil is in the details when it comes to Disney, and it certainly was for this trip report.

your Squidgyness. (With a "ness" on the end of your screen name I just feel like I should throw a "your" in front of it.) Thank you for the kind words. There may have been too much detail at times, like the "last day laundry" , but now you know exactly what it'd be like to travel with the Glennbo family.

You have a wonderful family, and I am not surprised you had a great time with your organisational skills (bar the odd hiccup ) not to mention your extremely good luck with transport (again, the odd hiccup )

Hope you enjoy your next trip, and will definitely stay around to find out when that might be!

Wow, thank you again. Yes, we certainly hit Disney World with a plan and pretty much stayed on course. And during the course of the trip I learned to avoid transportation through DTD, but for the most part, can't complain.

Most importantly, thankyou for giving me 3 days of unadulterated pleasure, even if I did have to hide it from my family!

Sounds like you read the whole thing, so you get a Thank you! It makes it worthwhile knowing that others are reading!

I'm sorry to hear that you had to read in secret. But yes, non-DISers just don't understand. Sometimes my kids call me a "DIS-nerd".

HI. Just making sure you didnt' do that last update yet. And I get comments about Marv in his birthday suit instead. Please Glenn, have mercy on us all - GET THAT POST UP!!!

I'm so sorry, that must have been quite a shock.

But I have bad news -- I've been too busy to even begin a rough draft.

I'm waiting.....

See my reply to Liesa.....you might be waiting for a while.

You say that like it's a BAD thing......

Um.......yes, yes we do.

 

[marvali]

Um.......yes, yes we do.

I resemble that remark!!!

, thankyou for the 'Your'! And regards to the details, that is where I find the most beauty. It makes it personal, and much more interesting and exciting to read!

Its not that my family don't share the obsession. It's just that we recently booked a trip for somewhere else. I paid for the trip (1st one funded from my own funds ) but I told my family off for talking about booking another WDW visit before we finished the upcoming trip... and then...

I start pondering another WDW trip! After I had told everyone off and instructed them to only think about this upcoming trip ...

I know I will be mercilessly teased for that blunder so am trying to wait till we come back from this upcoming trip to reveal my plans! (Hey... I sound like a bond villain!) This calls for an evil laugh... *Muahahahahaha!!!*

I plainly underestimated the lure of Disney! *Awaits next chapter patiently*

 

[FauntleroyFAN07]

I think you're talking about the one at Yeehaa Bob? No, I mean these:

funny thing was i read the post read what you wrote but never caught on, i did not see her in those, was she there the whole Time? or did you just add those?

 

[Sleepingbooty]

Phew! I made it back before the big finale! Loved seeing the wrap up Parade 'O Pics. Have we reached the one year anniversary of the trip yet?

 

[glennbo123]

In that case, you came to the right place!

Well, if it's the trip I see in your signature, to Malta, that sounds like a fabulous trip! It's so far from here that it doesn't even seem like a possibility to go there, so I wouldn't even think of it. But I think it would be an amazing place to visit and explore. So yes, enjoy that trip and then come back and start to slowly reveal your Disney plans to your family. You don't have to tell them that you've been hatching them for some time. That'll be our little secret.

Will you be writing a Pre-Trip Report?

funny thing was i read the post read what you wrote but never caught on, i did not see her in those, was she there the whole Time? or did you just add those?

I added her to these in the "Parade 'o Pics". (Kind of like when a rock band puts one new song on a 'greatest hits' album. ) My squinty pics were originally posted a few days before yours.

Phew! I made it back before the big finale! Loved seeing the wrap up Parade 'O Pics. Have we reached the one year anniversary of the trip yet?

Hi Booty!

It's funny that you ask that question. The other day I was thinking that the 18th was the one year anniversary and so I thought that I'd need to get the last post up before the weekend. I looked earlier today and saw that the trip began on the 12th. Whoops.

But wait, what's the correct anniversary -- the start of the trip or the end? I might be able to make it before the one year anniversary of the end!

 

[onescgirl]

Loved, loved the wrap up pics story. You're such a great story teller!

 

[FauntleroyFAN07]

I added her to these in the "Parade 'o Pics". (Kind of like when a rock band puts one new song on a 'greatest hits' album. ) My squinty pics were originally posted a few days before yours.

i see, good comparision...she is def. a part of the greatest hits.
