The Frumps Have Hit the Wall... And No One's Mad. "FART SHOES." UPDATE 1/20

[marDgreen88]

Omg, ew. People, it is a nasty ugly bug. You are in Epcot. Where are their priorities?

Loving these F&G (or should I say... F&F) photos! I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to see that in person some day. It's so beautiful!!!

Omg, my poor broken heart. Norman Senior, it has been a pleasure seeing pictures of you. Normal Junior, keep the legacy alive!!!

Kristen, you crack me up. Please consider beauty pageants!!! The deer face would win it all.

Awesome update!

It's funny what some people find fascinating. Bugs, signs, grass. Anything!

So I may have to check out Lotus Blossom Cafe for the Red Bean Ice Cream! That looks super yummy, and I'm an ice cream freak!

Can't wait to read more!

Thank you!
I know... the possibilities are endless!
You should! From one ice cream lover to another, you NEED to try the red bean ice cream from China! You will love it!!
Thanks!

Super cute trip report!!

Strawberry bean ice cream, huh? Why have I never tried this? Maybe because it looks so plain in the face of dark chocolate sea salt caramels, school bread, and the magnificent pastry concoctions from France. But clearly, it is one of those deceptively simply, yet mind-numbingly delicious treats that must be now moved to the top of my list. Thanks for the tip!!

Haha thank you so much!
Yes!! Absolutely. It may seem plain but it's SO good!! I think your description is perfect! I hope that you try it next time! You're welcome!

Hahahahahaha the deer pictures are hilarious! What a sweet family RIP Norman
The dinner looks yum! I really should try there."Bring on the meat yo" This whole chapter cracked me up!

Haha thank you!
It was! You should! I never tried that place until January 2011 and I realized how much I was missing out!
Hahaha it was definitely a frumpy one!

I know! Some people just don't understand. DISNEY = MOST IMPORTANT THING EVER.
Lol F&F. That's fantastic. I hope you get to! It's really awesome!
I know, poor norman senior.
Hahaha we will title it "from frump to fabulous!" ​

I love Epcot so so so so much! I feel like I NEVER have enough time there!

Lovely family picture! Too cute!!

OMG, that orange chicken from China is amazing! Wow that apple eggroll looks heavenly too!

 

[Disneydude97]

We arrived at Epcot, hopped off the magical motor coach, and low and behold we saw the most amazing thing in all of Disney. Or at least you would have thought it was. Everyone was MESMERIZED by this giant bug. Kristen and I, being the Disney-loving frumps that we are, were like "who cares about a stupid bug, we're in Epcot... LET'S GO!" Typical, typical.

They seriously stared at this bug for FOREVER. I was like can we MOVE people? I have places to be!​

That bug is HUGE! I just wanna stare at it all day...NOT!

Oh, and I noticed you called Norway "Nor-vay". Sorta reminds me of the 2005 vacation planning DVD.

*The four hosts are wearing viking helmets, and Luke and Dave are trying to row the Viking boat*
Dave: Let's just take the elevator.
*all four cross arms and sink down*

 

[PanIsMine]

Sorry I've been MIA, but I have good reason- I was in Disney. I just started the TR. Link is in my siggie, if you're interested.
Lunch at Tony's looks good. What a frumpy photo shoot! OMG! I must eat at Lotus Blossom Cafe. The food looks so good!
That's so sad about Norman Senior.

 

[Disneydude97]

We watched the "Top 7 Must See's at Walt Disney World" on Kristen's iPad. Aka the old Stacey. Aka the extremely frumpy Stacey that everyone loves and misses. We took a rather unflattering picture of her on the iPad and I feel kind of bad posting it. But I'm going to anyways.

Stacey is ALWAYS beautiful. Merp.​

​

How were you guys able to watch the old Stacey on Kristen's iPad? Is there a YouTube app or something?

 

[princess_momma]

Love all your great pics!! Lotus Blossom sounds pretty good...I wonder if I could squeeze it in on my next trip!! Why does Disney have to have so many great restaurants that it's literally impossible to not want to try them all?!

I feel the same way! I could explore that place for days on end!
Haha oh thanks
Yes it is! And yum that was good too!

I know, right?
Haha that was my favorite vacation planning DVD! I know exactly what part you're talking about!

Haha that's totally fine! I hope you had a magical time!
It was really yummy! I'm glad you enjoyed it haha.
I hope you get to try Lotus Blossom sometime! It's a hidden gem!
Sadness. I know. At least Norman Junior is there to carry on the tradition!

How were you guys able to watch the old Stacey on Kristen's iPad? Is there a YouTube app or something?

Yeah I think so! Either that or Kristen had it downloaded from MouseBits.com onto her iTunes/iPad.

Love all your great pics!! Lotus Blossom sounds pretty good...I wonder if I could squeeze it in on my next trip!! Why does Disney have to have so many great restaurants that it's literally impossible to not want to try them all?!

Thank you! Haha you should try to! I ASK MYSELF THAT QUESTION EVERY DAY! Sigh. But it's okay... it gives me an excuse to go back. Frequently. ​

 

[Stringbean&Wingnut]

I definitely wouldn't be wasting precious Epcot time looking at a bug!!! Although I always do like to see the Disney ducks and bunnies around!

Your lunch looks great, too bad about Norman though!!

Me either girl! I was outta there! Those are cute.

It was! I'm still getting over poor Norman Sr....​

 

[sue_88]

The China portion of your day seems like it was very festive! I really do want to try that red bean ice cream!!

For some reason I have been going through major WDW withdrawls this week, and all of your Epcot pictures did not help. The pictures of the fire towers made me want to go there SO BAD. Actually all of your pictures of the buildings made me feel that way. Epcot is just so beautiful!

Lotus Blossom Cafe is yummy, but I've never seen that apple dessert before. I must figure out a way to fit that in to my dessert schedule at Epcot.

Aww I'm sorry! Hopefully you can go back soon!!!!

SO good! The desserts were fabulous!​

Flower & Frump Festival...aaaaaawwww yeah!

Aww, I love the Frump shadow pic. Very Peter Pan! <3

This pic is totally killing me: http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/4527/dsc0621fv.jpg hahahha

Oh, Norman Jr is just precious. I hope Norman Sr found a good and frumpy home to live in! And yes...please make that your Christmas card.

Omg that orange chicken looks like heaven. I really want to eat at Lotus Blossom but there's no way i'll have stomach space for that on our Food & Wine trip. Though I must stop by and finally try that red bean ice cream!!!

Kristen, I love when you get the camera and frump it up. I hope there are more of these photoshoots coming!

 

[PlutosRHM55]

Oh my gosh, A BUG?! Really?! I mean, it does look big (reminds me of a bit of the Spider, Mad-Eyed Moody from Harry Potter tests with Unforgivable curses, sorry been watching Harry Potter all day), but you have Spaceship Earth right over there. C'mon! Love your shadow picture though and it seems as if there is a random Hidden Mickey on the ground (not the shadow) where I believe Jess' head is.

Love your pictures in front of all the topiaries, truly a Flower & Frump festival there. You guys definitely made a great choice with those shirts especially with the pins, buttons and Mickey ears, you guys could totally be twins right there. And that's awesome you got to meet up with another friend... wait, did you say Bobby? The name sounds familiar especially in reference to the Figment ride... is this the same Bobby from Alicia's (Leasha_Loves_Disney) TR?

Anyways, awesome to see you found time to say hi to topiary Pluto. He was very appreciative I'm sure. Great pictures of World Showcase, you guys can go on your take-a-picture-of-everything ventures anytime because they are really pretty. I'm shocked you didn't stop in Norway though.

Awww, that's awesome you were reunited with the puppets, but... No Norman?! Wah. That's just awful they took him off the shelves, but I'm sure Norman Junior lives up to his memory. to more Deer Face pictures with an actual deer. You guys are just so punny lol

Mmmmm, the food at Lotus Blossom looks so good! I really want to try that Ice Cream though the Apple Egg Roll looks pretty awesome too. Good thing next time I'll probably be in the World we want to check out China some more. LOL @ another "when you give a frump a camera" moment. Oh, Kristen, your creativity is beyond me haha

Can't wait to read about the rest of your time in the World Showcase!

 

[havingadisneyday]

The line was only 15 minutes long so we hopped right in! I sat in the very back seat and Kristen sat in the front of the back car. We were going to take a picture wondering where the missing person was in the middle. However, a single rider was placed in between us. Fart shoes...

So instead, we talked on our iPhones during the picture. Kristen was like "WHAT?" and I was like "heyyy what's up!"

[/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE]​

So I'm reading along and enjoying the banter as usual when all the sudden I'm like whhhhaaaaaat??? That's ME in the middle!! Oh, just kidding.... but wouldn't it be really cool if someone did step forward and claim it? Its really a fabulous picture. I would frame it if I were you (or really that lady, lol). Carry on.

 

[DonaldDoleWhip]

As Disney-loving as I am, I probably would've been distracted by that bug as well.

And I very much enjoyed the deer pics. I don't know the story behind Norman Senior, but it sounds like he'll be dearly missed, and Norman Junior is pretty adorable.

That stuff is sooo good. You'll get there someday! The ice cream is FAB.​

We did! I'm sure he was. Oh we will at some point I'm sure...

I know! He does though. We're huge Frumps lol.​

I just didn't want to look at it...it was so HUGE.

Oh well thank you so very much! He will, for sure. ): Norman Junior is precious though. I love him. <3​

 

[PIRATEGIRL007]

I love the bug. I find it hilarious how that Disney can have all this cool stuff going on and exotic animals in Animal Kingdom but a duck walking down the path or a real deer sighting stops people dead in thier tracks. Cracks me up everytime.
