Poppy Ran Me Over With His Scooter - A PHM Trip Report UPDATE!! 7/23 Pg. 21

[DnA2010]

Your mom the criminal :jawdrop: wow!

Aww man, I can just imagine circles and Wheeee!!!

 

[dawnbu40]

Ugh those magic bands! Such a pain. Anytime all 3 of us make it through the entrance with no issues we look like this

Your lunch looks delicious even if that is the strangest chocolate mousse ever!

The pics of your dad are great. He is so adorable!

 

[vrajewski10513]

We usually don't have any issues with our magic bands, but the worry wart I am, theres always that moment when you're going through the entrance that you hold your breath and cross your fingers until you get that green circle lol

Your dad is great, I'm glad he's embracing the scooter lol

That's so frustrating that your Mom had to go to guest relations. That happened last May with Jim and I but it was my fault. I apparently didn't hook his ticket up correctly with his MB. We ended up waiting in line in the rain for 45 minutes to get it straightened out.

I've had both good and bad experiences at Le Cellier but I do love that pretzel bread!

Pop on a scooter is just hilarious!

 

[TheLittleKatie]

Since you don't know me and my driving skills, let me just educate you that I am an enraged driver. I get so angry and irritated by people. So if I had to actually drive a scooter through the parks, let me tell you. Scooter Rage. We'll make it a thing.

I'm right there with you girl! I have some serious road rage issues I don't think I could handle being in a scooter at WDW!

Your food pictures at Le Cellier looked great! They made me hungry. I'm telling you, every time I see food pictures, I immediately tell myself I NEED an ADR there for my next trip. Disney restaurants will end me.

However, on our way out, this happened. The man is literally driving around in a circle going WWWHHHEEEEEEE!!!!! The one time I don't turn the video on....

OK, this is amazing. I'm glad pop seemed to make the most of having to use a scooter!

 

[KathyM2]

Looks like a great Epcot day! That pretzel bread looks so good...I love pretzel bread...would be good with the cheese soup I think...the rest of the food looked really good too...although I find it funny because being from Canada...I just don't see any of that stuff as being distinctly Canadian...but then...not sure what really "is" Canadian food lol other than maybe...maple syrup lol. Too bad about your mom's MB issues...glad it got sorted quickly!

While I know that it was frustrating for Momma to run into trouble getting into the park, it does make me feel good knowing that Disney does keep an eye on people using stolen bands.

Papadon makes me laugh so hard! I love his spirit!

 

[DVCWDWMEMBER]

I never would have guessed that was the problem with her band. Did she need to show an ID to prove that her band wasn't stolen?

I did have to show my ID. It was really sad the way I got treated at the gate by both Cast Members. The cast member at Guest relations was really nice and took care of me right away. she apologized for the mix-up. She had no idea what happened.

 

[DVCWDWMEMBER]

Who knew your mom was a criminal who steals MagicBands? She seems so nice ... it's always the nice ones who go around stealing MBs.

Scooter Rage should definitely be a thing ... people are not so nice to those on scooters (of course, the people on the scooters are not always so nice either ... but that's a different story entirely).

That chocolate mousse definitely doesn't look like any mousse I'm used to ...but the creme brulee does look very bruleed.

I didn't know they sell socks at Mouse Gear (although, really, there isn't much that they don't sell at Mouse Gears).

Going around in circles shouting "WWWHHHEEEEEEE" ... I can't imagine what the people around you were thinking. "Is this guy crazy or just a lot of fun?"

I am so glad I don't look like a criminal. This way I can get away with more.

So true that Disney is really good to keep an eye on things. Only frustration for me was that they should have been a little more polite.

 

[FloridaNative8]

You and I must have similar driving skills. My husband says I have an alter ego, "Traffic Jenn", when I'm driving home in rush hour, bumper to bumper traffic. I gotta be defensive if I want to make it home!

So glad your momma didn't have to go to Mickey Jail for allegedly having a stolen MB. I bet they don't have Premium Mickey Bars there!

 

[missangelalexis]

Mom the criminal! but I'm glad the situation was sorted out pretty quickly.

Lunch looks/sounds amazing. That mousse looks very fancy! I would love to go to Le Cellier one day but the price point is what's holding me back.

I so wish you had video of Pop circling in his scooter. The photos are pretty hysterical though so I will accept that

 

[DisneyKid4Life]

Wow, I was not expecting that as the reason for the Blue Mickey of Death. Stolen??? I don't get that at all.

And to think, Epcot actually has wide walkways, so one would think it would be the one park that would be easist to maneuver a scooter.

We had someone with a scooter on my last trip, and it did crack me up that... ZOOM!!! Gone.

YAY!!!!!!! I fully approve of lunch in Canadia!!!

Yeah, I bet Katt was sad.

I would never make fun of Popadon.

OK wow. There are seriously two Katt's??!! She is the first Katt I've ever met in my life, and yet there are seriouly two there??? Good to know. Of course it would be funny to go in asking to see Katt and having some stranger show up.

This is why we love Popadon. He just takes what could be a potenitally annoying situation and not only accepts it, but embraces it. WHEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

 

[SimplyGoofy]

That's crazy about your Mom's band! Although I'm glad Disney had protections in place for those kinds of things, that's no excuse for rudeness by the gate CMs.

I'm right there with you on being an enraged driver. Those that have never ridden with me have no idea how "colorful" I can become. I think driving a scooter just adds an extra level of "danger" to avoiding others that pay absolutely no attention to what's going on around them. Especially since if you did run into someone, they'd blame you instead of looking at themselves and realizing that they need to be more aware of their surroundings!

Your meal at Le Cellier looks tasty, but I'm disappointed by the Chocolate Mousse. I was planning on ordering it this year, but maybe not...

When I saw your first picture of someone in a scooter driving in circles yelling "Weeee!" I thought it was great that someone could have so fun doing something random.

When I looked at the second picture, I realized it was your dad. Your dad is awesome!

I did have to show my ID. It was really sad the way I got treated at the gate by both Cast Members. The cast member at Guest relations was really nice and took care of me right away. she apologized for the mix-up. She had no idea what happened.

Did they give you a fastpass to use on any ride at any time that day for your trouble? When we had to go to Guest Relatoons because DH's Annual Pass and the kids tickets seemed to be missing they gave us an extra fastpass because we had to wait in line. It was nice but next time I'll ask for three and see if I get them.

 

[Hardheadedwoman]

I'm so glad he was able to come on the trip too. It wouldn't have been the same without him.

P.S. I better see you at the 24 hour party woman! .

Girl, yes! I'm even brainstorming "Disneybound" costume ideas - one of them was Chip and Dale as Rescue Rangers but I don't think my husband would want to wear a bomber jacket in 80+ degree weather (and neither do I).

Can't wait to see you! I hope I can last! LOL

 

[kastoney]

A thief, a scooter racer, and scooter rage? How do they let you all into the parks ; ) I can only imagine the shenanigans if there had been alcohol and real ice cream in the mix.

 

[KatMark]

That stinks about Mom's Magic Band getting a blue Mickey and the CM's being mean to her.

How would they know it was stolen? And why did they think it was stolen?

I'm glad you got one attraction in before lunch. The last time we went to LeCellier was in 2011 when we took Andy. We've not been back since and probably won't (after Yachtsman it really is no brainer). I didn't like that we couldn't substitute (I loved the cream cheese mashed potatoes and chocolate whiskey cake and I couldn't get either at our meal) and I thought the steak had shrunk big time).

I'm glad your mom enjoyed her fish..it looks really good.

I LOVE your selfie--you look beautiful.
I am just sitting here...well, I'm actually because I can just see Popadon driving in a circle.

 

[Poolrat]

I look back and she's talking to the guy at the entrance. She was trying to pull out her pass to scan that instead, but they said that she couldn't do that, she needed to go up to Guest Relations outside of the park.

Stolen?!?!?!?!? How odd that that happened. I got the blue Mickey the first time I tried to enter the park with a new band and ticket and when the band went blue I just whipped out the card and scanned the card. But seeing stolen .....

I hate that the CMs "turned" on her when they thought it was stolen, innocent until proven guilty people!!!!!!

Pop doing doughnuts in the scotter..

 

[MEK]

So a magic band can be listed as stolen? Who knew? What a PITA for your mom. Glad she was able to get it straightened out quickly.

Lunch looks so yummy. I agree - 2 TS is too many, but with TIW its doable. The last filet I had there was a little salty, but still yummy. Or maybe that was the risotto. I still crave those creamed cheese mashed potatoes.

I can definitely see you dad doing circles and saying "wheeeeeeeeee...." Not surprised as all.

Cute outfit and great makeup!
