[pkondz]

So, gonna go finish up and see if we can't get the Little Red Caboose back on the track, otherwise, Ponzi and I will just carp at each other, ad infinitum, ad nauseum.

[Backstage_Gal]

So now that I've ticked all the Disney phobes off,,, saying goodnight now.

We will never never ever get back together!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How dare you hurt my 401K I dont have that much longer to go, you know.

Don't listen to Nebo, folks, Disney has much better atmosphere and better (higher) prices. Higher is better, right?

 

[dvc at last !]

Even seeing the pics does not make me interested in going to Uni.
We are Disney all the way !
Nebo, after your last post - no one will rent you DVC points again -
so do not worry about a parking lot view.

Oh don't worry Marita! I'm doing everything I can do to ensure you have a good retirement!

I can't wait to go to "Potterville". Every picture I have seen makes me want to be there. The setting seems almost pitch perfect.

I can only imagine how bad a moving walkway would be when you can't see it to know it's coming. It seems like that could a potential Nebo disaster waiting to happen!

I'm looking forward to hearing what your opinion of New Fantasy Land is. I have read other reviews, but I'm looking foward to hearing the Nebo truth so to speak.

I can't argue with your assessment of Universal versus Disney since I haven't been to Uni since the dark ages. Your pictures make me really want to go back.

Our late January/early February trip has shifted to late April. My parents won't be able to join us, but if we can make it work DS will celebrate his eighth birthday while we are there. And it will be ten days after DD1's birthday so we will celebrate her day there as well.

I enjoyed the chapter Nebo!

 

[smidgy]

note the date on the bottom of the photos.. hmm, is it someone's birthday?

I didn't think there was that much nebo missed in hogwarts, really, the whole green house was kinda boring, nothing much to look at. at one point dumbledoor talked to us, and I stopped.nebo wondered why I was stopping, and I said, "there's a picture of gandalf up there talking to us!" oops.

sometimes I dislike it when you can zip through the lines with no wait, cause everyone expects us to zip through the lines! even thought they hear me saying "ok sharp left, soft right, uturn to the left," they are so impatient! we often just say, "go on ahead," but more often than not, you get to the part in the line near the front where everyone is stopped, and so are the people we let ahead, (who were sighing loudly or stepping on our heels)just stopped waiting, but now in front of us. we experiment later with the universal version of GAC. tell ya about it then.

so I'm glad Ididn't do FJ.. yeah, I missed an experience. I imagine there will be many expereinces in life I will miss. I don't liek experiences that make me go!

the wand shop was ok, we only had a 5 minutes or so wait. the shopkeeper picked 2 kids, and the wands he tried did weird stuff if it wasn't supposed to be their wand.

lots of cool stuff in the gift shop after. nothing worth the price, though! the wands are about $30!!!

we both just LOVE suessland.. so colorfyul and cheery. the one time we rode the caroussel though, I didn't care for it... good reason! a couple we knew from karaokee flew down to meet us for the Universal portion of our trip. the night before, we did karaokee at Capt. Jacks (the bar at our resort, Royal Pacific. then keith came back to our room, and nebo wisely quit drinking, but Keith and I put a hurtin' on that rum bottle we had.

his girlfriend debbie really wanted to ride the carousel. all those bright colors!! and the up and down! and the around!!! sure is hard to hide a hangover on that ride! (and hide it I try, as Nebo gets angry with me when I drink too much)

My 401k loves that Uni is winning out. Although my heart is with Disney, Potterland is FANTASTIC. Can't wait for the rumored expansion of Diagon Alley. I need to get over there for another visit soon.

I am jusst rating the individual skirmishes,,, not the results of the whole battle, take it easy there little Orlandonian!

Even seeing the pics does not make me interested in going to Uni.

Um,,, YOU have DVC points......

Oh don't worry Marita! I'm doing everything I can do to ensure you have a good retirement!

Wow, I never thought of that! Our Disney trips are now in the 20's.. Yes Marita,,,,, let's talk!

you got that right, toots.

I'm looking forward to hearing what your opinion of New Fantasy Land is. I have read other reviews, but I'm looking foward to hearing the Nebo truth so to speak.

Nebo truth? Do you see how well my ride comparisons are going my dear?
"Do you promise to speak the truth, the whole truth, the Nebo truth so help you God?"
"um,,, can I think about it for a while first?"

I can't argue with your assessment of Universal versus Disney since I haven't been to Uni since the dark ages. Your pictures make me really want to go back.

My pictures want to make ME go back soon too.

Our late January/early February trip has shifted to late April. My parents won't be able to join us, but if we can make it work DS will celebrate his eighth birthday while we are there. And it will be ten days after DD1's birthday so we will celebrate her day there as well.

Yeah,,, it was boring,,, I know it. But tell me,, you mean you can't wait now to go back right after Smidgy and I just leave Disney ?????????? In April? Fine!

note the date on the bottom of the photos.. hmm, is it someone's birthday?

Boy,,, that date does look familiar to me.... hmm,,,

I didn't think there was that much nebo missed in hogwarts,

Except, I didn't see any hogs,,, and the only wart is on my ,,uh,,, well,, never mind.

really, the whole green house was kinda boring, nothing much to look at. at one point dumbledoor talked to us, and I stopped.nebo wondered why I was stopping, and I said, "there's a picture of gandalf up there talking to us!" oops.

Oh,, I forgot about that goof,,, that was funny at the time.

Now,, everybody,, please go back and re=read that paragraph,,,, yes,,, it't not a SERIES of bad typos,,, it's the truth,,,, the NEBO truth,,,,,, HAH,,, who'd a thunk it,,, that I would turn into the voice of reason? But on vacation,,, I know when it's time to pull the plug if you will,,, I can always open up a bottle at home, no need to feel crappy at Suess land.

his girlfriend debbie really wanted to ride the carousel. all those bright colors!! and the up and down! and the around!!! sure is hard to hide a hangover on that ride! (and hide it I try, as Nebo gets angry with me when I drink too much)

Nope,, not touching it,,, nope, nope nope nope.
Yes,, you all must think I loook really dumb,,,Hey,, how about that cute picture that Ponzi posted on his caption Disney picture web site?

 

[JagQT]

Hi Nebo and Smidgy. Remember me? I'm T_Man's sister, Lady H's sister in law. Just wanted to drop in and say hi

 

[buzz1121]

Yeah,,, it was boring,,, I know it. But tell me,, you mean you can't wait now to go back right after Smidgy and I just leave Disney ?????????? In April? Fine!

Do WHAT? When are you and Smidgy going?

And no way, it wasn't boring, I liked it. It's hard to give really good comments when your frame of reference is 15 years ago. I could ask you this.....is there enough at Uni to justify taking the kids there? I'm not counting the baby, but is there enough that DS(almost 8) and DD1(almost 5) can ride? And yes, I want the "Nebo" truth!

 

[nebo]

Hi Nebo and Smidgy. Remember me? I'm T_Man's sister, Lady H's sister in law. Just wanted to drop in and say hi

Umm... Mike look, I recorded the victoria secret show. Don't you want to watch that instead of reading Nebos TR?

That should keep him busy for a while...

Since its recorded, I can watch it later. This TR got interesting all of a sudden. And I'm not referring to Potterville.
