Peeps, restrooms & drunks. A hot, sweaty Asian TR-Pt.2 1/21-Under the sea

[jordanyosh]

time differences can be annoying i miss all the fun.

love the cammando story thought i m certainly not going to google it!!!

You certainly did get good animal mojo that day, great shots of the monkeys, including the one holding on to that Asia sign!!

You're time difference is bad, mine is too. Sometimes I'm out eating dinner or still sleeping when all the action is going on.

I should've done the ape face....

Hey Jordan.....great updates!

I've not had time to read all my subscribed TR's for a while so I have just spent a few hours catching upon yours. You make me laugh out loud!

Where is Buzz, DM & Blue?

I'm glad you re-upped for Part 2. I'm here to entertain the masses.

They're on a vacation from the DIS and may or may not be back.

Another great update Jordan. Erin already has the oooo-la-la down perfect. Wendy, yourrrrre in trubllllllllllll!!!!!!! Watch out with that little cutie.
And I love the new nickname.....Captain Obvious. That is a very funny shot, BTW.
This report is gonna be hard to keep up with, methinks.

Cathy!!!!! I know tons of banter, but most of it is Trip Report related in one way or another....

I hope I can keep up with my own report...

Great pictures J I wish I could get up the nerve to ride EE because I'd love to go on it just to see the theming and the view.

Maybe if all of my Dis buddies could meet up with me and have a couple of drinks first I could do it Think that's doable?

How long til your camping trip to WDW?

EE is pretty intense even for me....RnRC is much tamer in my eyes.

I miss them too! I've been reading along, but too busy elsewhere to post much here. But please know that I'm still reading and enjoying your TR, Jordan! Can't wait to pose with Ape-Jordan in October!

I understand...

I'm glad you're still here....I appreciate it.

Ape-Jordan.....

Go Wings.

I love the pictures. We went to DAK is past September on our last day but only had a few hours to spend there. We did ride Kali, three times (our littlest guy was just 39 inches and he was so excited to get to ride a BIG ride). There was no line so they lest us go again, and again. We were all soaked!

We are looking forward to seeing more of the Animal Kingdom this September.

See that wasn't hard, you have 2 posts now....

Animal Kingdom is HOT during September, but I guess you would know that....

Kali 3x is like riding a regular water ride once...

I guess it's better than dressing up as captain Underpants...

OMG J are you Asian?

Oh...and part Russian...

So I should be quoting you instead of just posting but hey, that was 4 pages ago. . .I just want everyone to look for FJ at POP on the 14th, then Searacers and other parts of the world from the 14th of May to the 20th of May. . .

I'll let you know if the pic works or if I need the original file later today. . .

keep up the report. . .I now need to start a pre-trip report before I leave in May. . .

My DFF Carrieanew and I should write together. . .after all, we decided that we are exploring together. . .

Okay will do...

Hey tell Carrieannew to get over here. She posted once or twice in my last one...I think....

 

[jordanyosh]

And the land seemed to breath as it exhaled a huge sigh of relief!

This picture just got me!

I laughed doing it....I couldn't resist....

This is the day that we arrived at the World. So from now on I am going to have to look in the background of all your photo's to see if I am there!!

Great update

where's wirki?

The Ohio State and USC/UCLA are not the best of friends....my two teams...

Oh Jordan!! This update had me rolling!! You are truly a talented comedian. I laughed out loud at the Yak pic, the talking sign and your Captain Obvious pose. I love those shots of Erin - she is definitely a darling .

I just write like I think...scary huh?

Hey I will have you all know that I wear the pants in our family and what I say goes…..

And my wife says that I can go on believing what ever I want

That's why I'm still single....

All the posed pictures are too cute

I hope they stay that way...

I don’t get it

Was this before Kali, they seem pretty dry

Nope after...it was hot that day. We dried off pretty quickly.

On our last visit in January of 07 this park moved up on my list of favorites , we really enjoyed the time we spent there, probably had to do with the fact that it wasn’t 100 sweaty degrees out.

I think you're right. Time of year probably makes a difference w/ AK. When we went in June 07, it was pretty miserable one day.

HI JORDAN~ I lost you for awhile but now I have found....part DUEX!!!!

FARRAH!!!!!!!

I'm glad you made it over.....

Off to work, hope I don't fall to far behind.

I gotta work today too. Shouldn't be too bad...

 

[jordanyosh]

just realized I did not sign up for the new part of the report. Keep the good work up.

Glad that you made it over...

That's awesome!!

Yeah, Capt. Obvious.....my newest name.

Loved the pics. We always go to WDW in August, so needless to say the animals are never very lively then...too HOT!

Neither are the people......

Wendy told Erin to do an Oo La La Pose.

That's the cutest picture! She looks like she's modeling for a clothing ad.

I could be her stage manager......Hmmmmm......

I love all the posing pictures Jordan, too cute. Erin is definitely going to be a diva when she grows up, she's got the pose down.

Erin will probably be the actress in the family for sure..........

 

[carissanboys]

How long til your camping trip to WDW?

EE is pretty intense even for me....RnRC is much tamer in my eyes.

19 months

I'd be much less scared to ride RnRC. But, a drink beforehand and dis friends would be good regardless

 

[jordanyosh]

I LOVE Reading trip reports with tons o' photos!!!
Wonderful, Enchanting......Makes Me Smile & Wish I was at WDW !

I think you're new so....Welcome!!!!!

Lots of pictures....

Loving the updates!! I am so ready to leave!!!

Is DH back?

Thanks jordan, it means alot to us.


ALso great update, loved the asia photos, and looking forward to what yo umean by going camping, i dont think you went over to fort wilderness, i am guessing you went to camp minnie mickey.

You are right on the money...In honor of Faunt.

Can you make a table of contents on this one, like the other? I have thoroughly enjoyed reading you trip report but there are too many pages to go through.

I do have a ToC in the second post...I clarified and edited so it makes it easier to find....thanks for the advice.

Love the update!

Thanks I try.

Definitely up for the drink part of it anyway.....

 

[Blueyed Girl]

Is DH back?

When he gets home this afternoon he will officially be on vacation.

 

[Native NYer]

Great update.

I agree that the attention to detail at AK is great.

Your pictures are hilarious.

 

[Kimberly815]

Hi Jordanyosh!

I found your TR yesterday and have finally caught up- talk about a long one! But it gave me something to do during a very quiet day at work! Very Entertaining!

 

[KatGarcia]

OK the Asia picture had me laughing out loud, stopping KC from playing Grand Theft Auto (which didn't go over too well) and making him look and laugh with me! You are hilarious!!!!!

 

[camelotcats]

The Yak and Yeti is aptly named. I will review it more thoroughly on my TR, but basically thumbs down.

 

[WendyO]

Another great update Jordan. Erin already has the oooo-la-la down perfect. Wendy, yourrrrre in trubllllllllllll!!!!!!! Watch out with that little cutie.

I know... even from preschool she had boys she "loved"... but she has a new one each year so apparently she's fickle as well. She is sort of a boy-chaser which worries me for the future. Those overaggressive girls. Yikes. Hopefully she'll learn some restraint and be the chasee rather than the chaser. Sigh.

Very nice. I think I may get on the phone with Children Services now. This whole posing thing is getting out of hand.

The odd thing is is that I forget who introduced the "Ooh la la" concept - but it happened in France the day we were having our snackworthy crepes, Jordan was having his slushy drink in a plastic martini glass, and Erin took pix with Belle. Because Robojo and Erin were taking pictures in France, someone (I forget who) said "Say 'Ooh la la!'" or something. And so there you have it... the "Ooh la la" shot was born.

Wendy told Erin to do an Oo La La Pose.

That's the cutest picture! She looks like she's modeling for a clothing ad.

The funny thing is that as hammy as Erin is for us, she's not always cooperative for "regular" photo shoots (like at Picture People or places like that...) so when we want her to do a real smile, or something more serious, she doesn't like to play along. It's that cornball gene in her. I've thought about putting them in ads or commercials, but 1) the commitment is way too much for a full-time working mom and 2) my fear is that they wouldn't do what they're supposed to do for the scene. But since I don't have the time to devote to really making it worthwhile, #2 is sort of a moot point. Maybe someday Jordan can be their "stage uncle" and make his living off of that. Hee hee hee hee.

EE is pretty intense even for me....RnRC is much tamer in my eyes.

You have got to be kidding!!??!! I thought the complete opposite.

 

[mla1977]

I think I agree with Jordan. EE has that long backwards portion that can really throw people for a loop. Whereas going through loops in coasters is no big deal for me.

 

[lori1043]

You cannot even compare RrC to EE- totally different!!

I like both equally!! I love that on EE you can see around AK from above. I rode the Matterhorn in DL and THAT one had DL scenery galore. EE was fabulous and the Yeti theme to me is a very updated 21st century thrill ride version of the Matterhorn(also a Yeti, built in 1952). DH and i rode EE 2x in a row while my DB and SIL had the kids in the Boneyard(yeah we took advantage of them!!)-it is up there with DCA'a California Screamin!! We loved both!

RrC is DH all time favorite Disney ride. Fast, loud COOL music and dark!!!

I think Erin is a very pretty girl. She WILL break hearts later on!! I was thinking how pretty she was in those last 2 pics-gorgeous kiddo!! You can see her girlie sassiness in the ohhlala pics!! Love it!

kepin up sort'a!!- can't wait to hear about "camping" -

Lori

 

[meriann]

OMG I am gone for a day or 2 and your 2nd thread is already on pg 19!!!!! THATS INSANE, but very fun to read.

Great updates as always. Now I am even more excited to finally see AK. In all my past trips to Dis I still have not been there.

You just have to promise to finish this TR before I leave for my trip. You have 44 days, GET BUSY!

 

[ncsjodi]

I'm glad you're still here....I appreciate it.

Ape-Jordan.....

Go Wings.

So, have you turned to the dark side now? A Wings fan?? Thanks, Jordan. Angela and I appreciate your help in rooting them on!

GO WINGS!!!!

Lori

Thanks for the compliments (because you know, I take total credit for that - ha ha ha. )

People *think* she's so sweet and adorable but when she's having her *moments* the cute veneer sort of gets tarnished... ha ha ha ha ha ha. Someday I'm sure she'll use that cuteness to manipulate those gullible people around her. Ha ha ha.

 

[stagemomx3]

I have to take kids to gymnastics, hopefully I'll only have a few pages to catch up on when I get back.
