stopher1....very cool strwberry :

 

[stopher1]

Nice Mickeyberry stopher1. I bet your son came in all excited to find this great HM! You sure you didn't use one of those plastic forms to make it come out that way like they do at Epcot???

Since I'm allergic to strawberries, I can definitely say that NOPE, no tampering or forced growing here... it sure was a sight when he first brought it in and we were all angling to try and see it and get a photo of it...you'd think Mickey himself had walked into our kitchen!

Loved the pic of the strawberry!!! It reminded me of a Hidden Mickey pic I took with my camera phone when I was reading water meters one day. I was walking across a resident's driveway, when I spotted this, almost perfect Mickey head.....of course, I had to take a pic of it......

I'm back Hope all had a wonderful 4th.

i don't do a lot of Pictures or even close to a trip report so I will give some Highlights here.

1st 3:45 am in MK brings out the Goof in everyone and nothing better then riding the carousel with Our Pal Goofy . He was a trip so we followed him right on. Shortly after a few rides Chip & Dale and Pluto joined the crew. I only had my new CellPhone so excuse the the Pics but hey it's something

We stayed at BWV from the 30th until the 5th and I couldn't wait to get out. I have stayed at most places and always felt welcomed until this stay. It was like we were a trouble to the staff. Room location was great 2048 but we had a HA room with no view ( will be talking to MS about this later today). Then they don't let you handle your own bags and were rude on top of it. closed the Main lot down for Conventioners and Wedding guess ,we had to park in the Very back section or do Valet as they always suggest. I don't do it as it voids all with someone else driving your rental and I like to keep mt GPS in there and they ahve been going missing at the BW.

Well the 5th came and off we went to try out AKV all I can say is WOW it's worth another WOW. I went in thinking no big deal and no real expections. Well I was blown away with the Room, the Lodge, and the Staff. Dm and DsF arrived the next day and we had a small room issue that was corrected and they ended up on the Zebra trail with us on the Back side. Not as good of a location we had but had a great view of the giraffe pens .

Overall we had a great stay and a great time ( even spent a day at Gatorland). We hit the Waterparks a lot and with the late nights never really got to a early start ( well they didn't I did solo many days).

Oh and I started to MAx out Buzz on serveral tries and then it happened I was Solo and got stopped in the Zugg room and this was my score on both guns

I sent it to DD as they were eating at CP she called me a Nerd.

WHAT a cool shot!! DW saw the snake around your neck and was jealous...she loves reptiles. We have an awesome shot from our honeymoon of her holding a snake at Discovery Island back when you could actually visit there... I'll have to try and scan it. Me - I can't stand snakes, think of my as Indiana Jones... "snakes, why'd it have to be snakes"...but the gator sure looks cool. Oh and I loved the Goofy on the carousel shot, too. Great pics, even if just from the cellphone. Thanks for sharing!

I'm headed to Webelos Camp with my younger son tomorrow, and then we leave for Cali this coming Wed, and off to DCA and DL next Sun and Mon - I can't wait!!!

Yes but the Snakes wasn't and he/she was roaming up and down. We lived a few doors down from the Guy that runs all the Replies at the Baltimore aquarium ,i was best friends with his brother he had a croc and a bunch of snakes all the time in his basement so I have no problems with any of them.

Stopher1 have a great Trip we are looking at cali in 2010/2011 maybe as we just did it in 2005.

The last time I was at Gatorland was in 2000. They had the second annual gator cook off. It was great! Too bad they never brought that back.

I love taking the resort line and stopping at each one and checking them out. Each resort is like visiting a a small town they are all so different.
