Something About Nothing ... #12

[tinydancer09]

Yo ho yo a pirates life for me.

Mickeys party was pretty great this year. Crowds around lunch were minimal... 5-10 minute waits on most. I changed into pirate around 6-6:30. Then it started raining and was thankful for my boots. Fireworks were A-mazing! Hocus pocus show was really good and we got very close to the stage by following the parade.

Epcot tomorrow. Hope all are well. Those that are here please be careful in this heat! It's a bit much even for my southern blood.

How long are those lines?
Is your flight out the 9:30
One?

Asking as I will be there next week at that airport

Lines were longer than usual probably 20 minutes...it just seemed like it took forever because I forgot to visit the ladies room

We had an uneventful flight except for the toddler in the seat behind us who was sitting with his dad and kept crying that he wanted his mommy. The poor dad tried calming him down but the kid was having none of it...just glad it was only a 1 hour flight.

We were lucky to get an upgrade to a poolside room at check-in. Here's the view..Had a great first day, ate at Mythos for lunch, rode Kong...awesome ride, Spidey, Minions with a 20 minute wait and my favorite, the Mummy. The only bummer was they charged Trey the regular rate for upgrading his day ticket to a seasonal pass at guest services inside the park. I went through 3 different TMs and they insisted that the GA residents discount was discontinued years ago when I got it last year and this year in June Oh well, it was only $20 and not worth wasting valuable park time arguing further.
We topped the night off at Cowfish, had a few cocktails and a wonderful meal.

Time to hit the parks again...have a great day homies...wish you were all here

Nice view Tink. Glad you and your son made it safely to Universal. Sounds like your having a great time.

The grandbabies and I had a meal at Cowfish in May and it was great. Looking forward to another visit there in a few days. Sushi was very good and the best sweet potato fries I have ever had.

I leave in one week! Hoping the gas shortage is over by then. Many places near me are running out of gas due to stupid people who panic and stockpile gas in containers

I' am back up in Southern Indiana getting ready to leave with sister and niece to head to Orlando Saturday and that is a concern I' am having also. As we will be traveling through Tennessee and Georgia.

Tinyd have a great day at Epcot. If I remember correctly your birthday was this week

 

[Lynne G]

Yes it's Wednesday, and we have another foggy start, to another sticky day. Not as hot as the weather is feeling for Tink and Trey and TinyD though. Sweet view Tink. Looks absolutely beautiful, even if it's really hot.

And yep, had to post a camel for Keisha. Yay! Our trip is less than 2 weeks away now. HeHe, Dsis wintered her pool last week-end. With this steamy weather, I was hoping she'd wait a week, oh well. There's always next summer. LOL And I might go to TL while visiting the mouse. I have hopper and water.

with that, I'm ready for tea. It's cool enough, hot tea. Enjoy your cups of coffee this morning homies.

 

[Robo56]

Morning Lynne . Love the camel and kitty pictures. I have a big cup of joe in my hand . Enjoy your tea. I need to sort a few last minute travel details today. Going to have lunch with a few friends at a winery in Kentucky. Gotta get this body movin today.

3 more sleeps till we leave

Lol, it looks like that palm tree is peeing into the lazy river!

 

[Lynne G]

Wow, you'll be on your way shortly Robo. If you'd like my cell, just send me a PM. I'll be there not this week-end, but next Sunday. Have a nice lunch. Moving indeed.

Kolby, hope all goes well with the house. Moving makes you really think what's important. And haha, I too have a vacuum, and it has duck tape on the cord. Years and years ago, when my dog was a pup, I was vacuuming, and my vacuum stopped. Apparently he ate though the cord. I was surprised he didn't get electrocuted, but he didn't and found something else to chew. And yes, fortunately or unfortunately, the vacuum still works.

Bluer - ha ha, quite an observation.

Driving to southern Ohio tomorrow to attend my mmmmf-mmmth High School Reunion. Should be fun

 

[RAPstar]

I only have 2 hours left at work, and of course they're taking foreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeever

 

[macraven]

Lol, it looks like that palm tree is peeing into the lazy river!

I thought the same thing after you posted that
Was at first thinking my phone screen had a streak on it


Left at 5:20 am this morning and here it is 3:34 and finally in DC
Got into the hotel room minutes ago and of course turned my phone on then


Hope all are doing fine

Belated

To tinyD

Hope it was a thrilling one

Soon you will be in the plane
Safe travels and fun in Orlando !

 

[NashvilleTrio]

.... and we got very close to the stage by following the parade.

This is a GREAT tip! I'll be remembering this!

Woot

Reunions are fun

 

[tinydancer09]

This is a GREAT tip! I'll be remembering this!

We sat outside the heritage house. When we got to the hub bridge they made us turn and go the long way towards the crystal palace. We were still able to get directly behind the parade and get up to the stage. I'd go to the squared in section if you can. The far left by the handicap side they undid the ropes and everyone shifted. If you go to the front and center square and get as close to the ropes as you can you should be fine.

If you can find a place on the stage side of the hub for the parade you'd really be able to get a great place!

 

[RAPstar]

Well guess who found he was being let go literally as he was walking out the door today? 3 guesses, first 2 don't count.

Not belated. It's today. Thank you! Though I had about 5 people message me yesterday. Not sure why. We were at Epcot and got future world don't by 3 so switched to DHS until the sun goes behind the world show case. Feels about 15 degrees cooler here than the showcase.

We've only been here 1.5 hours and we've gotten fast passes to three things. Not sure what we're going to do tomorrow

Did the 'lil darling kick your seat the whole time too? My pet peeve, parents either totally clueless or don't give a flying fart

I think it's a bee-u-it-ful view, hmmmph naysayers lol

Glad to hear u liked Kong, looking forward to it, way too many whiney reviews

Lol, it looks like that palm tree is peeing into the lazy river!

OMG you are a pip, Mac too. Thinking u both must excel @ those hidden picture puzzles.

Warm night, and I am tired.
