Our day doing thrill tours

[Patrick IL.]

Both Jay and my groups assembled by 8:30 A.M., a couple of members of my group met us at MK.

Then we were off..we traveled by busses, boats, monorails and cars. It reminded me of the movie "Planes, Trains and Automobiles"

Here is Meg, Marla and CC

Marsha, Our Tommy, Ellen, Glo and Brian

Marla and TLK

We all took a lunch break at the Flame Tree

Gina, Bernie and Vanessa

At the end here is the group. Everyone is here except Marsha who snuck off to shop during ToT and R and R. We made our time deadline as many were going to Primetime and also to China for late lunches.
L to R is TXTigger{Rob}, Marla, Tommy, DixieDreamer[Laura], Amid {Vanessa}, Brisully [Brian], Glo, Gina2000, OldKicker[Bernie], Ellen, Meg, DopeyGirl[Tricia], CC and TLK[Dave] kneeling in front.

I suppose I want to say how thankful I am to have had the oppertunity to spend such quaility time with all of you. Something else occured to me as I was going through the pics. Everyone from my original group last year was with us again this year, to me that is an incredible blessing. The fact that a year later, despite all the challanges, setbacks, health issues ect... that a year can throw into all our lives we were able to spend the time together again. I am thankful for each and everyone of you and so much want to have the chance to do this again. Thanks guys you really made me smile.

It was a great time. I wouldn't have missed it for the world. I hope we all get to see it again.

Thank you Patrick, for organizing this with Jay for the second year. I know how hard it is to get everything together and keeping on sched. You did an awesome job once again.

Here is hoping for a third thrill ride meet.

Thank you CC...How could I forget the wonderful directing techniques offered by Ellen. Especially after she had her "two" sticks.

Those moves were impresive
The arm movement extremely graceful

Thanks Ellen

LOL Vanessa! Remember MVMCP, I rode Dumbo for the first time, NO HANDS!! I'm ready!!

 

[Patrick IL.]

Hey I had my first ever ride on Dumbo this trip!!!!!! I held on to the safety bar and cinched up that safety belt way tight...I had to keep my eyes shut the whole time

 

[Snowwark]

But..but ...but...Patrick, how can that be??? You're a Thrill Ride Tour LEADER!!!

You better stay away from the Winnie the Pooh ride, there's a couple of small hills on that one!
