Hey everyone How is everyone doing? Good I hope. Animal Kingdom was good but busy because tonight was extra magic hours. We did the two shows (Lion King and Nemo) and that was pretty much all Chris wanted to do. And we got our photos taken with Pooh, Eeyore and Tigger (NO wait at all) Chris loved that. I can tell that he has grown so much since last time we were here. He went off to get his pic taken by himself with Tigger...Didnt need mama to hold him anymore because he wasnt scared He was giving Tigger high fives and hugging him and blowing kisses

Gail- I always wondered how you came upon Merkies name. I like unusual names (I guess I would be crazy if I didnt because my name is somewhat unusual, but mostly just with spelling). I like her name and that was a sweet way to name a child

Tonight we were sitting by the lake for our nightly fireworks watch and chris was playing in the sand and I look up and about maybe 15 feet away or less there was a little alligator!! I told Chris "Get up on the chair with me...the beach chairs" so he of course had to ask why, so I told him "Theres a little alligator there in the water" so he looks over at it and says "Oh I like alligators!!" Im not sure if the gator was looking for a snack or just relaxing with us to watch the fireworks, but he swam away after a few minutes Of course Chris wasn't allowed to sit in the sand in front of the chair anymore tonight just in case the lil gator was hungry

I know this sounds crazy because i didn't do this earlier but today I booked two reservations for here One for dinner Friday night at the "Spirit of Aloha" and the other for the Character breakfast on Sunday morning (check-out day) for the Lilo and Stitch Ohana breakfast. Chris will love that one

Ok one slight turn of bad mojo here but nothing horribly major...We waited for about 1/2 hour for the bus for AK today...so anyhoo that was the first indication that maybe this bus thing isnt going to work so well...Well after we finished up with AK, we headed back to the bus line...I seen the bus just leaving so no biggie, I wasnt going to rush to get there and I was just fine being the first in line for the next bus. So anyhoo we wait, and wait and then wait some more...Well the bus gets there FINALLY, and of course right before the bus gets there not one but 2 scooters show up...No biggie (I understand that they need to get on and I deal just fine with that (Im still first in line) BUT EACH scooter carries with it a family of 5 AT LEAST...and they all board the bus with the scooter...So we FINALLY get on the bus after they are all set in, and there are BARELY any seats left but I did grab 1 and promptly placed Chris on my lap while holding onto the stroller and our bag of toys purchased at AK. Then tons more people get on...standing room only and of course that was pretty much filled...Off we go still leaving a handful of people back at AK that couldnt get on, Well then the Bus driver heads to Blizzard beach and then TRIES to cram MORE people onto the bus. After being told by practically the WHOLE bus that there was NO ROOM and him yelling constantly to MOVE back (everyone was already moved as far back as they could go) so he stops and gets out and opens up the back door to try to cram more people in...he crammed about 3 more people in (dont ask me how) but the whole bus was pretty perturbed by that point and everyone was pretty mad. (at least I had a seat) but the bus had to stop at Contemporary to let people out and then to Poly...but we made it back But thats the only downside to the trip so far

Sounds like you guys are having so much fun. I love the details, but I am so jealous. Sure wish we were there!!!!!

Thanks for your nice comments about Merkie's name. We're so glad that we named her after her Grandma.

Keep having fun!

Hello Julie! Stop in anytime. I promise that your post won't stay last for three days here. Wish you were on our cruise.

Well, I've got to get in bed. This is way later than I ever stay up on a work night, but I had to hear what Palin had to say.

Working in the pharmacy allows us to see a LOT of different names. There was one boy who's last name was King, First name? Elvis. On his insurance card it read, King, Elvis. There was a family with twins, Lemonjello and Orangejello....pronounced with an accent....Lem-ah-n-shello, Or-ah-shello.

Get out! We had a family of boys with the same names. Maybe they moved to your area!!

HI Allen
Hi Kristin
Goodnight Michele
Erika do you have a pic of the FE? maybe some of us will be able to tell you if it's too small or not????????/

If you look at post #80 in this thread, this is where I got mine, it's the pirate one, but mine has black pockets, and more of the background fabric shows on each side of the pockets. My pockets are a little narrower than the ones in this picture...
