Snow to 80 in 8 days–A spoonful of Holiday Cheer (2/5 update Ch 36 - Final Thoughts)


It is funny how many ordinary things we pass right by every time we go to Disney and don't realize the special little details the Imagineers put into them.


Takes a lot of time out of rides to see those little details , but OH so worth it!

I have no words...

one of the boy's favorite shows.......Muppet Vision 3D.

REALLY?! I did NOT see this one coming! At. ALL!



The boys wanted to go to Pizza Planet,
We ended up at the Studio Catering Company

Half ain't bad.

This is a scary event that I'm sure happens all too often at Disney.

happened to me. Only takes a second.

Security finally arrived and headed off to help Oliver find his lost parents.

Phew!
 
Marv, great update!! Looks like I got some but also lost out on some - will be interesting to see how well the competition did. :goodvibes

I am a bit annoyed about me - there I go on that boys would love cars and therefore you would see LMA. But then I forget all about the Cars meet and greet and send them to see the monsters... How stupid can I be!! :scared1:

When we did the Key to the Kingdom Tour our tour guide was asked about lost children and he explained a bit about the procedure (not too much, they don't want people to have knowledge they could abuse) and about security in general. Disney is really working very hard to make the parks a very safe place.

I think the way you tour the parks really shows that you know that you will return because of the DVC. I am really looking forward to that aspect in October. In the past I always thought I really need to cram everything in because who knows when I will be back. I think Katharina in general has a more relaxed approach than me, even though when it was her first trip we naturally tried to cover as much as we could. But the next trip will have a very different feel to it!
 
I don't know about you, Marv - but I saw those pictures, and even 10 years ago if I had tried that I would have broken something , but if you think you can do it, wait until I am there with my video camera and we can split the AFV prize money! :thumbsup2
I might be crazy enough and I might be stupid enough to try some of those moves, but I'm not crazy and stupid enough to do it in front of a video camera....... :rotfl:
With my trio, when we would all stay together they did nothing but bicker and complain and pick on each other. That is when we started bringing a friend along - that way there were 4 of them and they could split into 2 and 2 and avoid some of the arguing. So what did they do??? they stayed together as a group of 4
Yeah that sounds about right! I'm sure there is more bickering and things than I know about, but for the most part they are pretty good about agreeing on what they want to do and heading out to get it done.
Well Marv that was a brilliant effort of Pole Dancing !!!:rotfl2:It reminds me again that I have to use the Pole at work for a few shots !!My staff already know I'm NUTS so they will willingly take the pix !!:lmao:
I have to show the Carz pix to a certain consumer who is the BIGGEST Fan of Mater !!! She will go CRAZY!!:rotfl2:

I am gonna be doing some Rope Pulling in August :banana: Won't tell Kyle but I will get him to pull the Rope and then take a pix !! Alo gotta do the phone booth thingie

All in all this was an amazing Update !! I am so sorry I was working and couldn't get her any quicker :headache::sad2:
I certainly understand the working part. Thanks for the kudos on the pole dancing! I have to make sure I have those numbers down for the phone booths too! Got to try some of that additional park entertainment!
Fabulous update! The tributes were great. And you are such a gentleman to give your fps to Allison. I hope you earned lots of brownie points.

So, when will know the scores after this round? Not that I did that great but at least I got a few right.:surfweb:
Quick stop in this morning! My weekend suddenly got really busy so no quick score updates. I have them all recorded though. My Dad called yesterday and wants to come visit tomorrow for Father's Day. :eek: Ali is gone to a National Convention with her school until Monday night, so I am going to be scrambling to get the house presentable for when my Dad arrives! It will be great to spend Father's Day with him, but my relaxing weekend just went out the window......at least until i can finally sit down when he gets here! :rotfl2:
Takes a lot of time out of rides to see those little details , but OH so worth it!
Like I said at the start, relax and take in all the sights, especially those related to Christmas but other things too.
I have no words...
That good, huh??? :banana:
REALLY?! I did NOT see this one coming! At. ALL!
Everyone made good, sound guesses on this one and we love shows like LMA, which seemed to be the popular answer. But for some reason the boys will jump all over the silly, corny but makes you laugh like crazy stuff!!! Not sure WHERE they get THAT from........ :rolleyes1

Hey, it's Disney and for those of us who love it the Peter Pan in us always shines through!!! ;)

Monsters, Inc and the Toy Story characters would be a good guess too if we had run into that opportunity, but heading from Indy to the SoA the Cars meet almost gets in the way. ;)

I'm sure there is no shortage of sick people out there who would love to abuse such information if they could get it! :sad2:

It makes a huge difference, especially now that we have made a few trips. Even though we have those few "favorite" rides we have to do each trip we can usually get those all in quickly if we make rope drop. Normally after that we will do shows and "milder" rides when we come to them, but we won't do those every trip anymore. If the lines are short and we haven't done something in a while, we will do it but otherwise we find ourselves thinking "let's just catch it next time." This trip the "stop and smell the roses" philosophy was much more prevalent in my touring plans. DVC definitely plays a part in that and having APs we will use again this summer just made it easier to slow down. :goodvibes
 

Sorry your weekend got busier that you expected but I am sure you will enjoy it.


Happy Fathers Day Marv. A bit early in case the same thing happens to my weekend.
 
I don't have any cute pictures to add, but wanted to wish you a really great Father's Day, Marv! Hope it's wondeful! I'll have a steak in your honor....
 
Joining in! Great report - the pole dancing pic is priceless!!!!


Have a Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day Marv!

Let's see - Nice pole dance! And I give you a 8 out of 10 on the Crane!

I can see we need to take more time for the little details. I never noticed all the Indy dig details at that show. I've looked at similar things in the queue for Indy at DL - didn't even realize what there was at DHS. :sad2:

Oh - time for a nap, huh?

Thanks Pat! Sometimes we have to get things in when we can. It seems like something is always popping up. (Hope you haven't had any problems with all these storms that have been passing through.)
Happy Father's Day Marv!!

Thanks Kathy! Hope Mark gets to enjoy his day at least a little between all the games he is umping! :thumbsup2
 
And who said I was going to be one to show off my technique?? :rotfl:

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY MARV!
Thanks Jen! And if you don't plan to show off your technique you probably don't want to hang around much with me. I might get you in trouble....... :rotfl: (not that I'm an instigator or anything!)
Happy Father's Day Marv! I hope you enjoy your time with you Dad.
Thanks! It has been a good day so far!

Thanks! So many things to experience and I don't think we have even begun to find them all. 8 out if 10, huh? I can live with that. :woohoo:

The last one yesterday just blew and fast . First I was seeing the warnings then the wind and then a teeny bit of rain and it was done.
 
Hey Marv! I wanted to stop by and wish you a Happy Father's Day! I hope you had a great day with your sweet boys.:goodvibes I'm sure it was wonderful to spend it with your own dad as well. :thumbsup2

Thankfully that has been mostly our experience too.
