That Foo's Boo Is Incredible!!! - Jan 14 TR *THE END 7/19 Pg. 51*

Thursday, Jan 23rd was the day that we arrived, and it was cold. I think it was something like a high of 55 degrees that day. But the sun was shining and it felt great.

I love the way you can change fp+'s at the last minute, too. That was really lucky to get TSMM.

We've only seen that Little Mermaid show once, and I agree, it was very disjointed.

It was cold in the morning for sure. IT did end up warming up fairly well (for us that is), but the first few hours in the morning were a bit on the cold side.

It was really lucky that we got TSM on that short of notice. I didn't have such luck on the last trip.

awesome update!!

good thinking on the being inside! ee is great and all but on a cold day, BOOOOUUUURRRRRRRR is it rough! lol

ahahahaha get all the way to the car just to go back! hey man, somewhat happened last week, we went to mk to find peter, wandered in a circle for an hour, couldn't find him and left mk bahah! #fail

yay for dhs! i do have to agree that i'm pretty picky when it comes to clothes in disney, i usually wont buy anything, but the past few trips ive bought a sweater cause it was too cold, and last week had to buy a tank top cause i was dying of heat at 9am…. :headache:


yay for votlm being good this go around!!

Exactly! I totally didn't want her getting even worse.

Hahahaha. I know right! Wander around, try to decide something, wander around some more. Gotta love it.

I'm totally picky when it comes to Disney clothes too, but my Dad just takes it to another level. LOL.

It was a pretty good show that time around, I was pretty pleased.

Bad: I just found this TR. Sad I had missed it thus far.
Good: I just read the whole thing and took notes so I could comment.
Bad: I cleaned my desk off in a fit of pique and accidentally threw away the sticky note with said comments.

So - all you get is the following:

1. I adore your family.
2. I'm so sorry your mom was feeling cruddy. I've totally been there, and it is AWFUL!
3. I am loving all the pullovers and the makeup!
4. I had so much else to say. Meh.

Well :welcome:

I'm glad you're here! I'll be starting a new one soon, so you'll have a fresh one to hop in on. No worries about comments, I'm glad you read along. :thumbsup2
 
Oh so glad mom was feeling better this day.

Hmmmm... so on your shirt, the prince has pants on, yet on the GIANT MURAL at BoG, he goes pants-less. Makes sense... :scared:

FP+ is really starting to show some real benefits I think. Getting a TSMM day of is pretty impressive.

Haha, I totaly have that jacket Popadon bought. Except I went for the Orange. I love it!!!

I agree. The VotLM is made or broken by Ariel's voice. It's a strange show though. Kind of the reader's digest version of the story. But I guess it has to be to be able to move more people through in a day.

I was really happy she was feeling better too. I didn't want her to miss out on anything else!

Maybe I should take my shirt to the Imagineers and be like "this....this is what it's supposed to look like!"

I agree on the benefits. It was super easy to make the changes that day and we got a time we could deal with.

Exactly. It's like the condensed version of it. LOL. Down to childrens level. :rotfl2:

I love that pullover, its so pretty! Those Mickey waffles look good. Looking forward to hearing about the rest of your day

Thanks! It's one of my favorites.

It's so strange thinking of WDW being cold but good call on changing your plans to keep your Mom warmer :)

It is strange thinking of it being cold. I seem to have bad luck with going when it's cold. :rotfl2:
 
Good idea to change parks. Glad your mom was feeling well enough to get out and about.

That's the shirt I bought based on your trip reports! I love it. It's so pretty. Can't wait to wear it in December.

Love your Haunted Mansion eyes. You have skills with make up!

Love VotLM. I remember it being really good when I saw it. ....but it's been too long since I've been to DW!

I put on my lovely Beauty and the Beast pullover. Love this one.



Here is the back for all to see.



LOVE this one!

So we start walking into the park, and Pop comments on how it's colder than he expected. Really Pop? Really? You know how cold it's been! I think I need to take to mothering him the way I mothered Mom that morning. Do other men seem to do this? Because the men in my family TOTALLY do!

Mom suggests finding a windbreaker. However, we call Pop a snob. No totally, he really is. He's super picky about clothing and the like, so we say he's totally stuck up. Having to suggest he find a windbreaker on Disney property is dicey. He loves his Disney polos (now, they are tech polos, you know golf ones. He doesn't wear cotton ones...see....snob!), but outerwear. Not so much.

Thankfully we found one in the first store we went in. Woooo. Dodged a bullet there. He said it would come in handy for golf. Sold!

We took some PP pictures afterwards, so you can see the snob wearing the new windbreaker that passed his inspection.




I am dying over this! You know how it went down on my TR! :lmao::lmao:

Yes. Other grown men definitely do this!

And sadly Jeff turned up his nose at the one Pops is wearing, though it was his backup plan. I like it!
 

I love your shirt. Super cute and just the right thing for a cold day in the world. Glad your mom was feeling good enough to venture into the parks. Smart move putting the axe on outdoor EE and yayayayay for scoring a TSM FP. Gotta love that! :thumbsup2

Cute PP pics and I'm glad popadom was satisfied with his new purchase. :thumbsup2
 
I get all of my Disney stuff from Hot Topic, and some from Wet Seal. Hot Topic mostly. I always tell Katt too that if she ever wants something, to let me know and I'd have it shipped here. I think their shipping to Canada is pretty expensive.
Seriously? Thank you! That is so nice of you, and I might just take you up on that. I had a full shopping cart there last time I went a-browsing! Dangerous place ;)

So, so happy to hear your Mom was feeling better this morning!!
Omg, that Beauty and the Beast pullover is one of the items that was in my shopping cart. That and the tank top like it. Love it so much!
Smart to switch up the park plans and stay indoors. Glad Popadon found a windbreaker he liked. My father is a major clothing snob too, I totally get it.
Fantastic photopass pics! :thumbsup2
 
Well :welcome:

I'm glad you're here! I'll be starting a new one soon, so you'll have a fresh one to hop in on. No worries about comments, I'm glad you read along. :thumbsup2

:goodvibes I also think at some point we need to manage a DISmeet with all the Danis! :woohoo:
 
So glad to hear your mom was feeling better this morning!

Awesome that FP+ worked out so well for you with your park change. I think that's a big benefit - you don't necessarily need to be at rope drop to get the big things in (TSMM in particular).

It's been a long time since I've seen VotLM. I guess I'll have to get back there again someday and refresh my memory of it.
 
Yay! I'm so glad your mom was able to make it out to DHS because she was feeling better! When I was younger, I never believed in the benefit of rest when sick unless I had the flu or something and just wanted to sleep. But now that I'm older, I have seen with my own eyes how just staying in bed and resting for a day can really help lessen the severity of a cold. As much as it stinks that your mom had to do that, it's great to see that it paid off!
 
Glad your mom was feeling better! I'm sure the extra rest and yummy soup helped a lot.
Switching to DHS was probably a good idea. There's a lot of indoor attractions and shows in that park, whereas AK has you outside more. And if anyone ever argues that us overboard Disney vacation planners can't be go with the flow or have loose plans, you just showed how it's easy to change things on the fly. Which, FP does help a lot with. It is ince to be able to change your selections whenever you want, and if you do it before park opens then 9 times out 10 you land the headliners.:thumbsup2


It's been years since I've seen LM, so it was fun to look through your pictures of the show. That Sebastian picture cracked me up!


Oh, and I loved your HM inspired makeup for that morning!:goodvibes
 
It was really cold out so we were smart to switch and not go to the Animal Kingdom. I was still not feeling the greatest but didn't want to miss out on anymore Disney:thumbsup2
 
Of the three of you, you look under dressed! I mean, your shirt IS cute, but it doesn't look warm!

I like your dad's jacket; it's a great feeling when you go shopping for something you need and actually find it! Usually it's the opposite for me.:confused3
 
I've never seen the Little Mermaid show. Dunno if I ever will.

I love your Beauty and the Beast sweatshirt!

It's a take it or leave it show for me. We did it mainly because of the weather. I do it occasionally. LOL.

It's one of my favorites!

I love your Haunted Mansion eyes! I have no make-up talent and I would end up looking like a haunted raccoon than the haunted mansion!

Yay for mom feeling better! EE would have been tough on a recovering throat. VoTLM is a nice indoors attraction. Little dated though. Fix up those clips! I never thought of Eric as mute in the show....now I will have to see it again!:rotfl:

Oh believe me, I have had many a trial and error. It seriously just takes practice. And even then, I still make some major mistakes sometimes. :rotfl:

I agree, it's totally dated. I often wonder what they would put in there, but changing anything takes money, so you know. I don't hold my breath.

Good idea to change parks. Glad your mom was feeling well enough to get out and about.

That's the shirt I bought based on your trip reports! I love it. It's so pretty. Can't wait to wear it in December.

Love VotLM. I remember it being really good when I saw it. ....but it's been too long since I've been to DW!

She was feeling much better! I was glad she was too.

Awesome! It's a seriously awesome one. I bought the tank too. I actually got the tank first amazingly enough, and then that one later. I just never got to wear the tank until May.

My skills just come from a ton of practice. I just like messing around.
 
LOVE this one!



I am dying over this! You know how it went down on my TR! :lmao::lmao:

And sadly Jeff turned up his nose at the one Pops is wearing, though it was his backup plan. I like it!

I totally remember reading that part in your TR and thinking "this just sounds so familiar!!" :lmao:

I was surprised that one worked out for him, but I will say...if you can convince him he can use it golfing, he's sold! :rotfl:

I love your shirt. Super cute and just the right thing for a cold day in the world. Glad your mom was feeling good enough to venture into the parks. Smart move putting the axe on outdoor EE and yayayayay for scoring a TSM FP. Gotta love that! :thumbsup2

It worked out for me. I just love that one, and I was going to wear it regardless. LOL.

I was super excited to score a TSM fastpass because, well. I have an obsession with it. :rolleyes1

Seriously? Thank you! That is so nice of you, and I might just take you up on that. I had a full shopping cart there last time I went a-browsing! Dangerous place ;)

Of course! It's $4.99 shipping to get to me from them. Now, I would have to get it to you somehow, but it's gotta be cheaper than going through them, right?

I have the tank too! I actually bought that one first and then saw they had the pullover later. I'm seriously obsessed with their stuff, I'm always on the website.
 
:goodvibes I also think at some point we need to manage a DISmeet with all the Danis! :woohoo:

I love DISmeets! I'm so down with that. :thumbsup2

It really worked out perfectly. Now, that being said, I wouldn't foresee it working that well during busier times of year, but at that point it was just switch and go.

Yay! I'm so glad your mom was able to make it out to DHS because she was feeling better!

As much as it stinks that your mom had to do that, it's great to see that it paid off!

I think we all felt that when we were younger. Now I'm all like "I don't feel well...I'm out!" :rotfl:

It was the best thing for her to do. Believe me, I've been there on vacation myself, and then made the stupid choice to just push too hard. I didn't want to do that this time.

That Sebastian picture turned out so perfect. I want to be able to make those eyes at people sometimes. :rotfl2:

Thanks! I tried to do looks for May, but dang. It was just too hot. I looked stupid in the end.

It was really cold out so we were smart to switch and not go to the Animal Kingdom. I was still not feeling the greatest but didn't want to miss out on anymore Disney:thumbsup2

No more missing Disney!

Aha, see I'm super clever and you can't see what I did. :rotfl2: I layered. I had a super warm long sleeved black shirt on underneath there, that made my outfit totally toasty warm. My Pop had a sweater with a regular shirt on underneath, so it was too cold for him.

I agree! Nothing better than getting exactly what you're looking for.
 
Obviously I love your shirt :thumbsup2

DHS was a good choice, lots of stuff to do indoors. And that's awesome that you got a Toy Story Mania FP+!

Phew! That's a really nice windbreaker.

Of course you loved my shirt! I would expect no less.

It's an amazing windbreaker, isn't it? So worth the agonizing spent over it. :lmao:
