That's wishful thinking.

It is really cool what you find, and you can certainly take your time enjoying it since it is really vacant. I've known about it for a while, but this is the first time I set out to find it and see what it had to offer.We did the hidden trails for the tree of life for the first time in January and it is amazing! We were by ourselves back there too and getting to see all of the carved detail up close is really neat!
Someone posted about these on the DIS not long before we went. I knew my attempt to capture the spirit of Christmas at Disney wouldn't be complete if I didn't seek them out!Love the Christmas trees! I did not know they did that!
Things are really tightening up on the leaderboard. I got everything updated on scores. Will try to post after I catch up on comments.Don't think I did too well on the contest - oh well there are always rounds ten and eleven!
Didn't think about the Country Bears. Been a long, long time since I've been to that show at MK.I think the two trees that you couldn't figure out were the Country Bears for the first one, they play on washboards and moonshine jugs in their band. And the second one might be the Br'ers. Im not too sure about that one - it looks like the bear ornaments are polar bears so that wouldn't make a lot of sense. But I don't know where polar bears, bird houses and lanterns come together.
Definitely worth the trip and the time!I don't know if we have ever been on that hidden trail or not. Danny has explored a lot of the animal trails around there, but I don't remember him having tree pictures as good as those. And I sure don't remember ever seeing the Everest Temple. AK is the park we spend the least amount of time at - I skip it all together on our short trips. It looks like I will need to spend more time exploring it this year.
Wording? Yeah, that's probably it......I did say you saw Divine! You just didn't word your question right![]()
I think the wording probably threw you off!Shorts!Half the time I forget you are there during winter (as I sit here sweating in the house while I read this) so I didn't think about that as a possibility.
I saw them last week but didn't have time to answer them then. Will try to get over there soon and do so. Is it fair I can actually determine correct answer to some of them, after putting in my guesses???I have my pre-trip questions up now if you want to give them a go!
The first kiosk on the right is probably iffy, but the second one further away appears a little more stationary, so it should help you locate the trail. The giraffe in the background should be a good marker also.One "Innocent " lady admitting to snow !!Twas worth a shot !!! I think I got a couple right !! Now if Gleen got the "secret" right I get a point cuz I said my answer was the same as his !!!
I am gonna check out that Secret trail next month, gotta go back and read !!I hope the 2 kioslks don't move daily or I could end up in the Men's bathroom !!

Well, I started to dedicate it to Hot Mama, but I don't think she is a loyal reader.......... Tell her she missed out!Almost forget Thanks for the dedication of The Elvis Tree to me !!!![]()

I will check with the governing Board of Directors....I saw them last week but didn't have time to answer them then. Will try to get over there soon and do so. Is it fair I can actually determine correct answer to some of them, after putting in my guesses???![]()
I'll take that under advisement! Oh wait, I already scored the last contest......I stumbled on to some right answers![]()
I got the secret trail right, just for the wrong reason.
Well, when I said Uzima, I was going for the CS - I pictured Mara in my head, does that count?![]()
Thanks! It was a very productive solo morning!Well of course you would've gone to see the Tree of Life. At least I got some answers right! You took some very nice pictures of the christmas decorations. I'm glad to hear you got to see DeVine too.
Never saw Brother Bear, so wouldn't have known that one anyway.Once again fabulous photos! I almost said the trails for the secret. We first used it in 2007 and now I always make a point to go back there. It's so secluded.
I enjoyed the Christmas tree pictures too. I think Tanya is right about the Country Bear tree but the other could be for Koda from Brother Bear. We have had pictures with him on several trips.
They don't? I thought I have seen a bunch of characters on that ride.......Ah...Brother Bear - that makes sense. I think Ive only seen it once and it didn't come to mind. All I could think of with the lanterns was Big Thunder Mountain - but they don't have characters....![]()
There's always NEXT time!Mornin' Marv! Guess what?? I spoke to Stitch yesterday about meeting up with you on our trip. I wanted to be sure she was comfortable with meeting strangers and allReminds me of our D.C. Meet when Glenn thought he'd be walking into a room full of axe murderers
![]()
Got it! Stitch obviously hasn't seen any of my work on the DIS.........Anyway, she's all for it!!!Did you get my PM I sent?
Yep! I hold it so well I thought it was Rosie who made that comment until I went back and looked.......Hey, I think I got more than one point this time!
Top Gun!
Boy, somebody can hold a grudge...![]()
There are many.......Oh man, I was going to say that but didn't want to look like a know it all!Top Gun is one of those movies that DH and I always seem to watch whenever it's on but we don't own a copy. Makes no sense!
One of Marv's finest qualities!![]()
You'll have to check with Captain Oblivious; that was HIS contest! Oh wait.........Well, he said he was taking a point away from me, so I had to see if I could get one back with a movie quote.![]()
Pay no attention to the young lady in the middle of the picture..........yep im sure you were just taking a picture of the entrance.
![]()
Uh, aren't you the one with TRs about Chip and Dale trying to steal your wife??? I was just referring to this as their latest attempt to lure her away........im sure its the house you are refering to, and nothing else on the tree.
![]()
What is it with you and pooh????
this one im going with pooh as it looks like i see at least 3 of them in there.
No Way!!!a few of those would have been coming home with me.

Hope you're not holding your breath.......my answer to that question was, he stepped foot in a disney park for the first time in 2011...which is correct on every level, but we will see if i got credit for it.
![]()
It was really warm that day. I can neither confirm nor deny....... There were also no buses full of passengers that can provide witness!i thought about putting he wore underwear for the first time in 2011, but wasnt so sure that was a true statement.![]()
You were the only one who focused on my shorts Magdelene.........Great update Marv, I loved the pictures of all the character trees!!
And I was very excited that I got the shorts right!!![]()
Maybe the way you wear them Rosie.......Isn't that another name for SHORTSSo you wooda been right
![]()
I'll get right on that.Good strategy.I'm doing miserably in his contests so perhaps I should ask him to include more movie quotes in his updates so I can get some extra credit.
What do you think Marv?Could you include some girlie movie quotes like something from Sleepless in Seattle, Sweet Home Alabama or Titanic??
Thanks Liesa! Hope you get those pictures to come up before I get around to telling about the boys joining me!Hi Marv,
I got a minute or two to read the latest updates and loved them! The temple lined up was one of my favorites I got on my trip too- as were the pix from the TOL trail- as you say, WELL worth seeking out and spending some time on.
Unfortunately, I'm not getting any pix to download right now, so I'll have to check back in a bit to see if my internet is any better. Wish I could see the trees..
Hope those boys do join you soon!
You never know! How long could it take???Just dropping in to day hello!
Can't wait for the next update to see how I did this time around!
You trip is getting so close!!!! So I guess at this point we are not getting a PTR?

Yeah jenb, if you are going to plan a quick trip to meet up with us I would be happy to send you a copy of my itinerary.......That's wishful thinking.Although I have gotten a pretty good idea since we're trying to coincide a meeting time.
There's still time!!!!........to change your contest score!!!We'll be lucky at this point if he gets this TR done.![]()
You mean I can't just impose my will on you so I get those questions right???That's my story
I will check with the governing Board of Directors....
Two out of three agree that you can make your guesses and then try to influence the outcome. Their thoughtful reasoning was that since the guesses are due the 3rd and since Disney is such a flexible place, that what you think may happen, or what you plan to happen, may not happen exactly the way you intend it to.![]()
There's still time!!!!........to change your contest score!!!![]()
And I was very excited that I got the shorts right!!![]()
How do you DO that?!!??!
Oh sure, you say that NOW........You know I love you.![]()
I take you back to the first paragraph of Chapter 22, when we are headed to our Cape May ADR............How do you DO that?!!??!
When the family finally rejoined me at Kidani it was getting much later than I had hoped. The goal, especially since we didn't make it for our trip to WL and WCC, was to drive over to DHS and leave the car there while we took the boat over to the Beach Club for our dinner ADR. I told everyone to hurry and be ready to head out. It had gotten quite warm as the day went on, and everyone was searching for something cooler to wear, but we were very soon headed to the car. As I drove out of the parking garage I knew everything would have to go very smoothly for us to be able to make DHS, park, catch the watercraft and make it on time for our ADR.
It did get warmer as the week went on.......
I think Marv and I had talked quite a bit about the weather on that trip and I still had in the back of my mind that he mentioned that it was getting really nice and warm towards the end of the trip (totally forgot about the title of this TR...).
You never know! How long could it take???![]()
Yeah jenb, if you are going to plan a quick trip to meet up with us I would be happy to send you a copy of my itinerary.......![]()

"he got the beans above the franks"
