Sorry Gaston, They are MUCH More Interesting Than You!*6/8* NEW Trip Report Link p154

[Poolrat]

I guess we took the bus back to the WL and then you got your car. I can only imagine how silly you must have felt getting out of the car like that and walking through the parking lot.

Duh I DROVE to WL to meet you. We had to take a boat back and then I had to drive back to BCV. I said bus because that would be the only way for me to get back to BCV that late.


Then I started thinking why didn't we drive to MK....... the RUM thats why....

Is that what happened? That would make sense. Maybe they asked if we wanted it and we said "yes" just for the heck of it. Those PP pix definitely do tell the story better. But I am afraid, as Christine would say, that I am going to lose my Disney card for not knowing the storyline better before I went into the attraction.

They still give out the PP afterward but I think they may be trying to only give it to those in the show - at least thats the way I felt in Jan.

We bid goodbye to Pat and were able to catch a boat fairly soon back to the WL (and for reference I’m pretty positive there isn’t a bus available to the WL, or FW for that matter,. Boat is the only option; it’s just a matter of which boat route so clearly Mary Ellen was more out of it than I realized if she recalls us taking a bus hee hee). It had been a long day and I know I was glad to make it back to the villa, get the wig and tights off and crash! I had an ambitious plan for the morning.

See above- I finally remembered that I had to go back with you to WL to get my car.

I have a duck butt already, so I don't need anything else to accentuate it!

Um yes to my duck butt too, nothing more to make it any bigger than it already is.

REally? We ate first and then went back to HM before we went to BTMMR? Do you think we ate, went to BTMMR, and then HM? I thought we went to BTMMR but I wasn't even sure. I really did time warp after we ate dinner.

Not sure if my time stamps will help but I can look.

Hey - it was Pat who said we took a bus. I believed her.

not sure I said we .... I thought I meant I....

 

[GoofyFan1515]

I really like all of these!

Somehow the aftermath isn't quite as pretty!

You are so right! And sadly my timing is usually a little slow, so I tend to get a lot of “aftermath” photos!

She was wonderful! And hysterical as well. Just a ton of funny little comments.

Hmmm, I need to go to this party and check this little addition out I think!

Loved the mirror

Nice pics!

And I agree that BTMRR at night is definitely a lot more fun!!

What? Youve never heard about the medicinal purposes of rum? Where have you been?

Of course! I was agreeing that HAD to be the reason……….

Then I started thinking why didn't we drive to MK....... the RUM thats why....

Yeah, okay.......

Um yes to my duck butt too, nothing more to make it any bigger than it already is.

 

[englishrose47]

Rum sure had a strange effect on your memory!!! For me it is Dementia , just ask Nurse Cruella !!!

 

[MEK]

Belle is a favorite of mine, I have always loved the story of Beauty and the Beast. My new favorite is Brave, the movie really affected me in a way I did not expect.

Belle is so pretty. She is instantly likable. I have to admit - I have not seen Brave. I guess I should check it out.

Anyway to be redundant, pictures are all good as usual!

Thanks!

OMG Mary Ellen... I just got my keyboard partially replaced so thank you very much for the coffee spray that just reChristened it..

Your comments were a little naughty and totally hilarious and I hope now that it's Lent you are planning to behave yourself...

Oops....Sorry......

for someone who was out of it ... you did have some interesting commentary and very good photos...

Those pp photos were great. Thank goodness I decided to look at them. I think they saved my update!

I did love Pat's Queen of Hearts Photo...

Me too! Definitely a keeper!

& I'm guessing that Cynthia was the designated driver this night since she seems to have a clear idea of what actually transpired in Belle's cottage that evening...

If we had drive Cynthia would definitely have been the designated driver. Thank goodness we had someone on West Coast time!

I would do it if the line wasn't crazy and I could get David and Ems in there with me... since Belle is her favorite princess...

I could definitely see your kids taking roles in that attraction. It certainly would make for great pictures.

Can't wait to see what you all get up to next... Curious to see if MaryEllen makes it on her morning run the next day...

It's amazing what a little sleep can do!

We just got back last weekend from Disney so I am getting caught back up. Great pics! We love the MNSSHP! It is always so much fun.

Welcome Back! Hope you had a great trip! If you start a TR will you please let me know!

MNSSHP was SO much fun! It certainly did not disappoint!

Duh I DROVE to WL to meet you. We had to take a boat back and then I had to drive back to BCV. I said bus because that would be the only way for me to get back to BCV that late.

Oh gotcha! My bad. I couldn't remember which way we got back. that part of my memory is gone, so when you said "bus" I figured my memory issues were solved. Apparently not.

Then I started thinking why didn't we drive to MK....... the RUM thats why....

Yeah - that probably wouldn't have been the best idea, would it?

They still give out the PP afterward but I think they may be trying to only give it to those in the show - at least thats the way I felt in Jan.

But we got one anyway, didn't we? Muhahahahaha!

See above- I finally remembered that I had to go back with you to WL to get my car.

So you mean you almost left your car in the WL parking lot? That would have been bad since you were leaving the next day?

Um yes to my duck butt too, nothing more to make it any bigger than it already is.

Right on sista!

Not sure if my time stamps will help but I can look.

I don't think I have time stamps and since I didn't take pictures of BTMMR I have no idea what happened. Maybe there was a hypnotic in my taco salad?

not sure I said we .... I thought I meant I....

There we go again - putting words in your mouth!

I really like all of these!

They really turned out great! I agree!

You are so right! And sadly my timing is usually a little slow, so I tend to get a lot of aftermath photos!

I often have the same problem. That's why I use manual settings at night.

Hmmm, I need to go to this party and check this little addition out I think!

Nice pics!

She was a hoot! I definitely recommend checking out the party. It's awesome!

 

[MEK]

And I agree that BTMRR at night is definitely a lot more fun!!

SO. MUCH. BETTER. Almost like a different ride altogether.

Of course! I was agreeing that HAD to be the reason&&&.

Definitely THE reason!

Yeah, okay.......

Much to contrary opinion, we actually ARE responsible adults!

I honestly don't think Pat has to worry about her duck butt.

Rum sure had a strange effect on your memory!!! For me it is Dementia , just ask Nurse Cruella !!!

Rosie - I think it was dementia for me, too!

 

[englishrose47]

Rosie - I think it was dementia for me, too!

You need Nurse Cruella to confirm that!!!!

 

[Queenofallthings]

I am so happy that I am not the only one who has those moments in Disney! When I hit the wall, I am done and I should just leave, but I always try and carry on

Great update and amazing pictures! You ladies look great in your costumes and I love the ones with the ghosts!

 

[Poolrat]

I honestly don't think Pat has to worry about her duck butt.

I have the unfortunate reminder of my "duck butt" when I see pictures. Other than that I am not behind myself often....the only other reminder is when I have to squuuueeeeze by something and well then I get a reminder too.

Nice pun on words Pat

 

[Poolrat]

Some more from the mix and mingle-
I was standing with Cynthia and MAryEllen but I had the Super zoom...

My picture of KISS and his "treat bag"

Yes BMTRR before HM I looked at time stamps- This was on the mountain

This was at 10:36

This at 10:47

Belle
The mirror

starts like this ----- SPOILER ALERT------

and turns into this

I think between the three of us and time stamps we can piece together the evening. Boy, we MUST have had a great time....especially if we can't remember it.

 

[eandesmom]

I've sat here a few times thinking that the way you all look in those wigs reminded me of something n couldnt figure out what it wasbut,as soon as I saw Pat n Cynthia's faces in the haunted mansion pic where the ghost is in the coach n you throw your hands back with a scared face.......It came to me Pat looks like Vicki Lawrencein it and so the 3 of you could be characters from the Carol Burnette show!!!

Or Hee Haw



That is so funny though and I can totally see that. Those pictures totally crack me up every time I see them.

I would agree that it seemed wrong to give the PP card to everyone whether or not they were in the Belle show and not have pictures with anyone who wanted it. Maybe it would take too long?
I know Paige was sort of bummed because Belle is her favorite princess and Sarah was in the show and got a picture with her. Then again, Paige didn't want to be in the show. Nor did we really know what was going to happen in there!

I like your castle and fireworks shots too Cynthia!
Your "special" PP pictures are great - wish we'd have done that! Guess I'll have to go back!

I can see where it could take too long but since all the performers do get a picture with her it would seem easy to limit the cards to just those folks.

For phone pictures, I was pretty happy with the castle shots!

The party was SO much fun! I really recommend it and the next time I go I would like to dress up again. That was very fun!

I am really glad we dressed up and would totally do it again.

I love this one! I think your castle pix turned out great!

For phone pictures I was really happy with them!

REally? We ate first and then went back to HM before we went to BTMMR? Do you think we ate, went to BTMMR, and then HM? I thought we went to BTMMR but I wasn't even sure. I really did time warp after we ate dinner.

I didn't take pics of BTMRR so wasn't sure of the order but food definitely showed up before HM in my pics lol. I just know how hungry we were and definitely recall heading straight to food (seeing KISS on the way) and after that I was kind of just in a "anything is good, whatever" mood so the order of things just wasn't remotely important. I was just soaking up the party and atmosphere (as evidenced by the shocking lack of pictures). Not one of us took a picture of any of the candy trails.

She was so freakin' funny! I don't remember ever seeing her during my first party, but I loved her at the second party. What a great job to have!

She was hysterical, I'd probably try to visit her twice next time.

I LOVE BTMMR in the dark and I have no doubt that the wig was probably falling off my head because knowing me I just had it off to scratch my scalp!

I just remember laughing SO much on that ride. It is always best in the dark but was amped up for some reason (rum, wig, taco salad, who knows).

I did not know that Belle was you favorite and that this was your fav story. Neat.

Favorite movie. The book itself is actually quite a short story. It's the whole princess who READS thing that gets me.

What? Where do you look asleep? You look smiling and happy in all your pictures. AT least I thought.

So smiling in one my eyes are closed....lol!

Belle is a favorite of mine, I have always loved the story of Beauty and the Beast. My new favorite is Brave, the movie really affected me in a way I did not expect.

Anyway to be redundant, pictures are all good as usual!

I haven't seen Brave yet, need to! People seem to love it or not care for it, not a lot of middle ground with it.

& I'm guessing that Cynthia was the designated driver this night since she seems to have a clear idea of what actually transpired in Belle's cottage that evening...

I would do it if the line wasn't crazy and I could get David and Ems in there with me... since Belle is her favorite princess...[/COLOR]

Can't wait to see what you all get up to next... Curious to see if MaryEllen makes it on her morning run the next day...

Well I wasn't a very good DD as I forgot Pat was on the boat with us which was DOH as I certainly know she drove to WL and took the boat over with us....

I just know taking a bus back to WL would have been literally impossible so we definitely didn't do that!

We just got back last weekend from Disney so I am getting caught back up. Great pics! We love the MNSSHP! It is always so much fun.

So much fun and so glad we went and dressed up!

Duh I DROVE to WL to meet you. We had to take a boat back and then I had to drive back to BCV. I said bus because that would be the only way for me to get back to BCV that late.


Then I started thinking why didn't we drive to MK....... the RUM thats why....

That and parking. At the time I think we all though boat would be faster. In retrospect, not so much. It's funny though, the pictures and hazy memories would imply we had more rum than we actually did. One drink at the pool and one for the road (boat wait) and you probably had one less than we did.

 

[eandesmom]

For the record, when we all discussed the costumes we agreed on 2 things.

NO duck butt
NO duck bills!

I really like all of these!

You are so right! And sadly my timing is usually a little slow, so I tend to get a lot of “aftermath” photos!

Me too! I was really happy with some of the castle shots. My fireworks shots are pretty much always awful so I expect aftermath but was thrilled to get a few decent ones in there.

Rum sure had a strange effect on your memory!!! For me it is Dementia , just ask Nurse Cruella !!!

Well by the time the night got hazy I think it was lack of sleep, late hour, lack of food and rum wearing off. Plus a bit of dementia for all.

Much to contrary opinion, we actually ARE responsible adults!

Or at least we like to think so

I am so happy that I am not the only one who has those moments in Disney! When I hit the wall, I am done and I should just leave, but I always try and carry on

Great update and amazing pictures! You ladies look great in your costumes and I love the ones with the ghosts!

We had so much fun! I think we all hit that wall at one point or another.

Some more from the mix and mingle-

Great pics!!!

Ok so food, candy trail, bio break, BTMRR, HM, candy trail by ITSWAA/PP then new FL? I keep meaning to check the time stamps on the photopass ones as I can't remember when we did the hitchhiking pic, just know it was a bit difficult to find.

the only one I have and a horrible one at that.

I had Fireworks, KISS, skull ( as we ran by), break then the BMTRR, then HM. I can only assume during the break from 9:53- 10:25 is when we ate.

I just remember laughing SO much on that ride. It is always best in the dark but was amped up for some reason (rum, wig, taco salad, who knows).

We did have so much fun and yes we really did NOT have that much to drink. Long days, long night and lots of fun amnesia, that what it was.

Yes - I think we did the hitchhiking picture almost last...... I think we had to go back to find it because we forgot the first time. and the one by the wall.... we had to ask a CM.

Fun amnesia! I like that. Lapses of memory caused by too much laughing!

Perfect.

I'd bet a Mickey bar that's when we ate as I know I was on the verge of a hunger meltdown.

Yes - I think we did the hitchhiking picture almost last...... I think we had to go back to find it because we forgot the first time. and the one by the wall.... we had to ask a CM.

We did have to go back, it was very hidden and no line. That much I remember!

 

[GoofyFan1515]

Much to contrary opinion, we actually ARE responsible adults!

Being new here, I guess I will reserve judgement...........

I honestly don't think Pat has to worry about her duck butt.

I have to agree........

I have the unfortunate reminder of my "duck butt" when I see pictures. Other than that I am not behind myself often....the only other reminder is when I have to squuuueeeeze by something and well then I get a reminder too.

I think between the three of us and time stamps we can piece together the evening. Boy, we MUST have had a great time....especially if we can't remember it.

Wonder just how many times people have had a great time at Disney and had to rely on the pictures to remember it..............

For the record, when we all discussed the costumes we agreed on 2 things.

NO duck butt
NO duck bills!

Such a shame..........

Well by the time the night got hazy I think it was lack of sleep, late hour, lack of food and rum wearing off. Plus a bit of dementia for all.

Your story and you're sticking to it.....???

Or at least we like to think so

We did have so much fun and yes we really did NOT have that much to drink. Long days, long night and lots of fun amnesia, that what it was.

Suuuuuuuuure it was.......

 

[Poolrat]

Being new here, I guess I will reserve judgement...........

Can't use that excuse for too long.

I have to agree........

Oh really???? Quite the flirt aren't you???

Wonder just how many times people have had a great time at Disney and had to rely on the pictures to remember it..............

Too often I forget the pictures as well and then leads to what I then call a "horrible trip".

Such a shame..........

Your story and you're sticking to it.....???



Suuuuuuuuure it was.......

Yup that's our story.... Maybe you will have to plan on being there to be part of it next time. Then you'll see.

 

[GoofyFan1515]

Can't use that excuse for too long.

Long enough hopefully...........

Oh really???? Quite the flirt aren't you???

Who me???

Too often I forget the pictures as well and then leads to what I then call a "horrible trip".

Interesting.......

Yup that's our story.... Maybe you will have to plan on being there to be part of it next time. Then you'll see.

Hmmmm..........an invitation?? Now who's being a flirt???

 

[micandminforever]

Joining up for the fun.

I know I am late, but sometimes life gets in the way of dis time, (some good Christmas and a trip to Disney, some bad sick parents).

 

[MEK]

You need Nurse Cruella to confirm that!!!!

I do! I do!

I am so happy that I am not the only one who has those moments in Disney! When I hit the wall, I am done and I should just leave, but I always try and carry on

There was no way I was going home without May and June! But, yeah, I was tired enough to just call it quits.

Great update and amazing pictures! You ladies look great in your costumes and I love the ones with the ghosts!

Thanks! We had a blast with those costumes. It was so much fun when people actually recognized us.

I have the unfortunate reminder of my "duck butt" when I see pictures. Other than that I am not behind myself often....the only other reminder is when I have to squuuueeeeze by something and well then I get a reminder too.

I am frequently reminded of my duck butt and the shorts I had on did nothing to improve that.

Nice pun on words Pat

I am still shocked at the heel on that shoe!

So we hit the HM after BTMMR. That makes sense!

For the record, when we all discussed the costumes we agreed on 2 things.

NO duck butt
NO duck bills!

We had this discussion? Well, I am positive I vetoed both!
