A happyhaunt jaunt with just Mel and Tommy?
I may have to read this now!
P. S. - thanks for making an announcement on the other thread that this one existed. It would have taken me weeks to find it! Or maybe days. Depends on when I get bored and go looking for another report.

This is strange. I was at Disney with my family in May from the 10th to the 18th when you were there and now I just came home last night from Disney and found out you were there again. We were there the 4th through the 10th. I'm no stalker though. Off to read this one. Great reports.

 

[offwegotoneverland]

This could be really cool (well perhaps not a scool as being under a picnic table!)

 

[__disneygirl]

Sounds like you are a PRETTY hardcore Manhunt player! On the roof of an outhouse? That's impressive. Unheard of! I don't know if you guys call it Manhunt too... it makes it a little more intimidating though. MANHUNT.

And also.. ONLY ONE BIKINI? How could you survive this? I don't think i'd be able to. You're a brave and strong one, Mel. Loving this trippie!!!! Excited to hear about your adventures at MNSSHP.

Tommy and I waved goodbye to the rest of the happyhaunts.

And watched them drive away in the dirty old van.

We would be missing them. I feared.

But not the stinkin' van.

In fact... I had myself ONE SWEET RIDE booked for Disney. My rental. Was gonna be a convertible.

Tommy and I were gonna be valet parkin'. In STYLE.

Or... we WOULD have been... had Mellyman not wandered by me sitting at the computer booking my rental car. And stopped to look.

I was promptly downgraded. To the lowest... most basic... level of "ride".

Forget "SWEET"... it wasn't happening.

Basically we were renting a 1965 Chevrolet Biscayne.

The van would have been several steps up. From this.

But... I believe... Mellyman was punishing me in some small way. For actually TRYING to LOSE the battle for his wallet. On this trip.

On the other hand... we got to use the Dollar Express Check-in.

So that was something.

Yahoo.

I remembered to bring along my Nehru jacket and go-go boots. To match our rental vehicle.

And all my other junk from 1965: My bell-bottom jeans, my love beads, my G.I. Joe doll (The manly one. Not the new-fangled Metrosexual one that's available NOW.), and my red embellished T-shirt:

Oh.

That's a bit. Blurry. Here... this might help you see the RED happyhaunt a lil bit better:

Heh heh.

Yep.

I was all ready with my stuff from 1965. Except that I wasn't even born yet in 1965.

There IS a nasty rumour going around that I was conceived at Woodstock.

Which may or may not be true.

I can't remember.

My long term and short term memory is somewhat shot.

TFI.

What I'm trying to say is this: This is the BLUE happyhaunt...

At the airport ready to go.

The other thing we had to do was call The General. My Mother. And say "Goodbye" properly.

Because she had popped in on us earlier in the day. While I was packing and had given me $60.00 in American money. To buy something for the kids at Disney from her.

She basically threw it in my hand and rushed out the door.

It was raining. Quite heavily. And she didn't want to stick around.

She wanted to get back home before the storm got worse.

We barely exchanged two words.

Just how I like it. BTW.

I think she ran out merely to avoid the hug and kiss good-bye. From me.

Just how I like it. BTW.

We made it through security. Losing my sword and knife. And sunscreen. In the process.

And headed towards our Gate.

Sat down.

With a turkey sandwich. Two chocolate milks and a bag of Sunchips.

And proceeded to drink and dial...




To be continued. Up next: The General is crazier than Crazy Frog. And some BAD news. Comes our way.

 

[mlill]

Mel, I think you need a new camera. That's some wicked blurring!

I think it's great you took you son on this trip! I bet he'll remember it for the rest of his life! (but now you owe the other kids!!!)

[GeorgiaAristocat]

$60, eh? That will buy, what, two antenna toppers and a Coke at Dizzy world?

j/k ~ that's what Grandma's (and General's) are for!

Hope the news wasn't too dire. Like the demise of the van or something. (I thought you got a new van recently? I must be mis-benembering. Was that someone else?)

AND AND! That blue happyhaunt is so CUTE. and so PIXELATED with my magnifying glass!

Thanks.

He IS cute.

And... TINY.

heh heh.

Must need a new camera or something.

Yeah... our van is new.

But... we've had it for a number of month now.

Took it camping a bunch.

Now it's old, dirty and trashed.

Smelly.

And dirty and trashed.

Reminds me of our OLD one.

You menembered correctly.

Melly.

 

[1000thhappyhaunt]

SWEET!!!!

Yellow Hamma!

Did you NOT learn ANYTHING from me??? Clear, zippy-topped quart size baggies would have SAVED the day Melly!!!

 

[celerystalker]

Ohmygoodness!
You wore an Alabama shirt?
ZZUB should be very proud that he got a Canadian even to roll tide.
Someone make him explain what a crimson tide is anyway. I always think of Jaws.

 

[samc]

Luv it

And some BAD news. Comes our way.

I know......the tide's OC stinks?????

 

[LaLa]

You don't have to be in the Northwoods to play Hide and Go Seek in the dark.

You can also play it in the Southwoods. TFI.

How much fun is that game? I love it. Except the part where somebody always winds up getting hurt. You know, running full speed into a stump or something like that. Cause that's no fun. But other than that, it's good times indeed.

The Alabama shirt cracked me up, Melly. Woll tide. And little Tommy looks really cute in that little picture. At least I'm guessing he does. Truth is, I don't have the foggiest idea.

Because she had popped in on us earlier in the day. While I was packing and had given me $60.00 in American money. To buy something for the kids at Disney from her.

Something tells me The General is pretty cool. After all. Quarters in birthday cakes notwithstanding.

I'm just wondering. Your last trip report, from May, is still ongoing. When you were in Disney World last week with Tommy, did you run into yourself from the May trip and thus completely disrupt the time-space continuum?

Now there's a question that's gonna fester.

Looking forward to more, Melly...

 

[blue_river]

Blue Happyhaunt looks like a character from Honey I Shrunk the Audience

Grammy's are so kind - we need more of them.

 

[Ginamarie]

Loving the new trip report!

 

[gigi1313]

great start to your latest trippie... lookin' forward to more

 

[Shelby5514]

Well I guess a Welcome Back is in order, you sneaky, sneaky hauntie!

 

[latoberg]

I don't know. You lost me on top of the outhouse.

That's funny. I don't care who you are.

Mel with fear and trembling I have begun this tale of Mellylessness. I just hope I get everything straight and don't quote the past past in the present past.

 

[Wonders10]

Hey Me(l),

I have to say that I absolutely love your trip reports even if I am going to confuse the two and spend even more time on the DIS looking for an update on one of them. But seriously, your writing makes me want to pack my bags. NOW. Luckily I will in a few days - yippee!

Are you really a Bama fan? My older brother got a master's degree from there. We still get his annoying alumni magazine at our house.

Looking forward to the rest!
