Oh what a horrible trip!!!! Now for something completely different-Final blast ......

[natebenma]

I hate when they do that to the ride photo

I totally agree! HORRIBLE!!!

I am cracking up over all of the stuff on the bulletin board. Nice job capturing the pictures!!!

How wonderful to have so many firework options.

I never noticed the bulletin board. now I have to go again. lol

Did you call Becky? LOL


And did you see the one date...10/20/11. It's now the past!

On the call Becky part. That bulletin board is on the right side next to the stove.

I think I zoomed in on the news clipping and it was for Windows. Like the original

Did you make Marty's changes ???????

If I knew what Marty wanted, I would do it!!!!

And we were at MK that day! In Tomorrowland to start with!!!

We need to look for each other in our pictures. Since we know we didn't see each other.

Yes we do!

Off to attempt the half this weekend. Hopefully good news when I get back.

 

[Poolrat]

dont rub it in or anything haha...if she is there take a picture with her and you can post it in your next report.


i hope so i like there furniture.

I will try to look for her when I get into AK.

We have an IKEA!!! Takes all day to walk around and look.

I'm sorry, I'm just cracking up at the SM ride photo. It looks like you're lecturing the other riders on not swimming during electrical storms. Or maybe telling them not to try to retrieve their hats from underneath the ride.

Either one might be correct
I think I was finally on the other side (left) from where I usually ride with a FP. So I was looking for where the camera was. CLEARLY I didn't know.

9:15 is not too bad at all. It's practically rope drop!
Love all the TL pics, especially the pin board in CoP! How cool! I've never noticed it before so of course now I'll have to check it out next time.

Knowing I stoped for pictures on the way tot he car had me thinking I was slacking again. I think I was surprise too when I saw the time stamp of 9:15.

Still later than my 8:20 usual.

CoP last scene and all the way to the right. With the zoom I have it kept me entertained while GRandma was fighting aliens.

Not horrible!

Express monorail looked rather full anyway. No flash, rest is ok. Love the close ups!!!!!!!!!!!

Is the single finger to indicate first ride of the day, first ride on SM or some other hidden meaning?

Not too shabby!!!!

That express was full of flag carrying, cheering, standing everywhere teenagers.

My "finger" was me looking for the camera. Clearly I had no idea.
I think I was on the left track where I usually ride on the right side and I KNOW where that camera is.

 

[Poolrat]

Nice job on the bulletin board pictures. I'd love to know who the pictures are of.
We need to get Lou M. to find out the story on that.

Now that I have done that attraction a few times and there has been no update I look for other things to entertain me. I was looking for Hidden or not so hidden Mickeys and found the bulletin board.

I would guess imagineers children or grandchildren for the pictures.
I think it is so neat that try to find a way to have imagineers pictures or their children in the attractions.

Are you kidding me? you found all that in Cop - in the kitchen? Wow! And to think the only thing I ever notice is that old 80's oven (cause I had the exact same one )

I would say you FP times are pretty reasonable!

I believe the board is next to the oven. Super zoom helped me out, tha's for sure.

I can usually bounce from Buzz to SM and back in Tl.

Pat, I am trying to get caught up as I have been MIA for about 2 months now!!! Hope you are doing well and had a great holiday. I see that you are about to head to the world again for a run. How exciting! Hope you do well and have fun.

Welcome back. I know the holidays are crazy. I have been nuts since Sept. It might have something to do with me constantly going back to the World though.

I leave in a few days!!!! Little nervous little excited. Just want to finish and still be able to walk and enjoy the parks for a few days.

Love your pictures from the 4th of July! I really missed being there last year. I think I have decided that despite the heat, I really enjoy the summer months more than others. We won't be there this year but hoping for the 4th in 2014.

Just a different way of touring, that is for sure. Lots of breaks and pool time.

I knew you were headed to see your tumble monkey in AK. Can't believe how close you got to park that day to the entrance. I like AK but have yet to explore the Tree of Life. I always feel rushed in there with the boys. They like to do their favorites and get out of there for some reason.

Send the boys to a ride or Dinoland and explore the tree. I think I still need to find another trail. Maybe later this week?

How was Disneyland? Are you going to do a report from your trip there?

Will try to do better in keeping up. Things have slowed down here so I should be able.

DL was great. Back to commando and trying to see everything. I am thinking I may do a photo update instead a day by day. Maybe. I do have a couple of funny stories though.

The trip from the airport was interesting.

I totally agree! HORRIBLE!!!

I am cracking up over all of the stuff on the bulletin board. Nice job capturing the pictures!!!


.

SM and TT both do that and it is annoying. Since you really can't see the icture I feel it actually reduces the possibility of me buying it ( which is usually close to zero anyway )


Once that bulletin board caught my eye I was all over it. So many things
that the audience may never see but my handy dandy zoom captures is why I go back. Always something new to see.

 

[Poolrat]

Use this FP

Then this one

Um my gun didn’t work????

Apparently my crappy score got me put in jail

Next up a bathroom break

HoP

And then here…..

Any guess as to where that was???










Tom Sawyer Island. Some walkin around and some sittin. Apparently I decided it was getting too hot.

Some shopping… or at least looking

And then out.

Now if you were paying attention you might say “ Wait minute! Don’t go to the bus you brought the car you numbskull.”




I was aware of that but also knew I would end up at MK that night…. At least that was the plan. I had a great spot parking wise so why not take the bus back and then retrieve the car that night.





A great plan in theory right????

 

[KatMark]

Pat, loved that update...very to the point.

Uh oh...that doesn't sound good about the car being left at MK and you taking a bus to BC and then coming back. Why do I have a feeling this isn't going to go quite that way?

 

[cheekypoppins]

ahhhh it just took me a rediculous amount of time to find where i last left off n get caught up,I have to know.....where did u get that dress you were wearing when you met the mermaid/dolphin girl(the blue mickey head with paisley dress)

That is all I had left. I need to write more from that point but another trip looming, I fugured I would get part up and well not much else other than hit that , that, that , got hot and left.

See HORRIBLE????

I tell ya leaving the car and taking the bus back seemed like a good idea at the time. I guess we will see.

ahhhh it just took me a rediculous amount of time to find where i last left off n get caught up,I have to know.....where did u get that dress you were wearing when you met the mermaid/dolphin girl(the blue mickey head with paisley dress)

The Blue Mickey head dress was found in EPCOT at the American Adventure.
An early birthday present for me!!! It is really comfy and dresses this summer made it at least "feel" cool.

 

[cheekypoppins]

Yay I'm excited to track it down if its still around in May thank you

 

[eandesmom]

Uh oh....this may in fact turn out to be horrible.

 

[MeMom]

I would guess imagineers children or grandchildren for the pictures.
I think it is so neat that try to find a way to have imagineers pictures or their children in the attractions.

I would guess the same, but the Disney geek in me wants to know who, what, when, where, why... now that you have opened this can of worms with your handy dandy zoom lens!

I was aware of that but also knew I would end up at MK that night…. At least that was the plan. I had a great spot parking wise so why not take the bus back and then retrieve the car that night.

Seems like it, yet I am sensing that there is a story here....

 

[jillyb]

Off to attempt the half this weekend. Hopefully good news when I get back.

Good luck!!!

Yeah...but you looked cute!

 

[glennbo123]

I can't believe that you left the "Pat, call Becky" note alone. I thought, "here's the setup" then....nothing. I like the Far Side cartoon though! I wish there were more in our future, but alas, I think they're done.

Uh oh, in reference to how you ended the last chapter, leaving the car in the MK parking lot -- I think a Star Wars quote (said many times) sums it up best: "I've got a bad feeling about this".

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

You certainly covered a lot of ground, as usual. I'm glad you took a TSI break...not too many people do, and it's a great spot.

But now you've got me in suspense over the parking thing...

[Mndisneygirl]

Ruh roh! My guesses are that you decided you didn't want to go back to MK, or that you did but forgot that your car was there after and got back on the bus to BC since that's how you got there in the evening. HORRIBLE!!


I want you to know that I did not scroll down, but guessed Tom Sawyer Island!!

Good luck with the half! I wish I was going back already! Not to run of course, just to go back!

 

[FauntleroyFAN07]

Apparently my crappy score got me put in jail

maybe the person who took the picture should have been in jail...next time you give your camera to someone walking by to take a picture tell them to not get there finger in front of it...



must have been an older person from the 40's generation that didnt know what that fancy digital camera was all about.

which button do i push and where do i look, huh that huge screen on the back, wheres the view finder. you youngsters with your fancy cameras.





way to crack out an update, im guessing you did indeed pick your car that eveing but there should be a good story behind it.

Not quite sure what is going on here but I have lost these replies three times already.

Yay I'm excited to track it down if its still around in May thank you

Go for it!!! Last scene and sit on the right side and get out your zoom lens.

Uh oh....this may in fact turn out to be horrible.

I would guess the same, but the Disney geek in me wants to know who, what, when, where, why... now that you have opened this can of worms with your handy dandy zoom lens!

Of course you would. I wonder if they change the pictures around.

Oh No I may have to keep checking CoP a must do ... not usually but now I have soemething to look for.

Seems like it, yet I am sensing that there is a story here....

I guess I have to come up with something good then.

Good luck!!!




Yeah...but you looked cute!

Thanks and Thanks

I can't believe I blew that!!! Go figure,.... and How horrible...

Uh oh, in reference to how you ended the last chapter, leaving the car in the MK parking lot -- I think a Star Wars quote (said many times) sums it up best: "I've got a bad feeling about this".

Star wars was on over the holidays and I caught most of episode 4 and the garbage pit scene .... the line was just a bit funnier this time..

But now you've got me in suspense over the parking thing...

Speed updating I did not have much in the way of notes or pictures other than what I said. Horrible reporting I know.


I guess I better come up with something good about the car.

Ruh roh! My guesses are that you decided you didn't want to go back to MK, or that you did but forgot that your car was there after and got back on the bus to BC since that's how you got there in the evening. HORRIBLE!!

Good for you!!! I may need some luc. A little nervous about it.

Oh heck I was laughing when I saw this. Hard to remember who I asked but usually if I tried to take it myself someone would step up ....CM or stranger and take it for me.

Get off my lawn!!!!

Boy I really set that one up didn't I?

Quoting everywhere you go. Star Wars was on over the holidays and the garbage pit scene ... The line.... A little funnier to me this time.

 

[jeremysdisneymom]

Oh no! Anxious to hear what happened with the car....
