Sqeeze Breeze in Canada??

[PhotobearSam]

Has anyone here in Canada found any Misty mate, fans with a water bottle attached to it?

Maybe Squeeze Breeze?

I've been to Walmart and found great water bottle holders and some awesome beach towels but no water fans...

Also would like to find a "hot pot" to cook/heat soup and stuff... Has anyone seen one in a Canadian Store like Zellers, Canadian Tire...etc

I'm in Ottawa,

Thanks in advance

Hello!

I have not seen the fans, but I have seen hotpot kinda things. The Winners on Merivale had something like that last time I was there (it was a while back though)

Hope you find what you are looking for!

Hi Mickey65,

Thanks I'll check it out...

Are you visiting WDW anytime soon???

 

[mickey65]

I hope to again.....but none of my friends are interested in going! Can you imagine NOT wanting to go to Disney!! Some people just don't get it I guess! When are you going?

Blasphemy!!!!

They are all nuts...

My fiance and I are going to drive down to be there from Oct 22 till Nov 1st (start driving home on Nov. 2nd)

Richard has never been and the last time I was there was when I was 16 (12 1/2 yrs ago----I can't beleive I just admitted that?!?!) I've been 4 times..

I've finally paid off my student loan and purchased a condo, so the next adult thing to do was a grown up vacation---After a while, trips to New Brunswick to visit my familly don't count as a true vacation....

We are going on quite a budget but I'm always doing things on a budget even when I don't have to...

I'm sure we will go back over and over again...

I just brought back two from Florida. Maybe I should have brough more and started a black market business. I haven't ever seen them in Canada - but if any place needs a good supply of squeeze breezes on the shelf, Ottawa does. All you have to do is blink an eye to break out in a sweat. Walk two feet and your shirt is soaked. I grew up there. Summer in Ottawa is hotter than just about anything. Humidity. Humidity. Humidity

We were just in Florida for 11 days May 10 - 21. It was HOT - 90+ F most of the time. But it was beautiful hot...by which I mean, even walking through parks there were very few occassions where we were actually sweating. And the evenings - get this - cooled down! No really. Ottawa is much worse in July than Orlando in May. I've also been in Miami in August. Its about like Ottawa. I was there with a friend from Alberta. She couldn't get over how hot and humid it was. I couldn't get over how much it felt like home.

The squeeze breeze people are missing a great market, I'd say.

How were the crowds?

I'll have to remember your idea about a black market in Sqeeze breeze so I can finance my next trip to WDW...

I was just at home hardware and they have a misty fan thing for 7.99 it's not a squeeze breeze but does the same thing.

May crowds - I live and work in/around Toronto now so I'm used to crowds at all kinds of places - but I found MK, AK and even the Resort we tried (PO-RS) crowded and busy at all times. We didn't use EE, but we were in the parks with an hour or so of openning - and they were already crowded. I would guess EE would get you maybe a hour or two of "slow" time - not much more. I guess it goes with the Disney territory. The only Disney place we went that didn't feel crowded was Typhoon Lagoon. It just amazes me that the world has enough people in it to keep Disney busy even on a school day in May. The parks weren't quite as bad a say Wonderland on a sunny Saturday in July, but not far from it. Since you're from Ottawa, think Bayshore or St. Laurent during Christmas season. It has that kind of feel.

Most attractions had long lines (40-60 min), but most of the good ones also had Fast Pass - which is oh so nice. Therefore, lineups to rides aren't really an issue.
