The Sea Witch Stole My Voice! Our Two Week Land and Sea Adventure! COMPLETE 4/12

your opening pics look good even in the rain and your sleeve.....we also always go to the safari first feel it is the best time to see animals, but frompeoples pics, it seems that they get really good ones during the middle of the day as well.

:laughing: Thanks! It took some maneuvering to get it just right so that the camera would be covered and the poncho wouldn't be dropping into view and ruining the picture.

Last year we went in the morning and then again in the afternoon after the parade and saw more animals in the afternoon then in the morning. Again though it was raining so the heat wasn't making them hide in the shade.
 
I'm not a morning person, either. I try to be nice, cuz DH brings me coffee in bed - even if he has to walk a mile to get it - so I have to smile, even if the coffee is "gas station" coffee. :goodvibes I'm glad you found some treatment for your poor feet.

Looks like there were alot of animals out in the rain!:thumbsup2 I love the jungly smell at AK when it's raining, but not the "steam smells" when the sun comes out!:rotfl:
 

Morning Lessa !! I have always had good luck with weather at AK !! Even this year !! It held off raining the morning I was there !!! Now MK was my soaker day!!:lmao:

Have you seen the new Wishes Dessrt Party at MK!! Those desserts are sooo droolable !!:rotfl2:
 
Wow you managed to go to the shops before arriving for RP at AK :faint: No wonder you were grumpy it must have been early :rotfl:

Looks like the animals were enjoying the rain!
 
Wait...hold the presses...stop right there! Is that the lion I see actually awake:eek:

Just as an FYI, Publix isn't that "cheap" either, but defintely cheaper than Goodings!
 
How dare that monorail CM attempt to confiscate your beloved Cinnamon goodness! :eek:

The picture of the wet ostrich looks so sad. Feathers are NOT attractive when wet. :sad2:

Sorry about your feet! Blisters suck. :headache:
 
Lessa you are not a bad luck charm, when it comes to rain, I have to say that the rain and cooler temp agreed with me and my MS. MS and heat do not agree with me, on our 2007 trip, the temp and humidity were quite high, and I had a lot of pain and difficulty walking, I would tell the kids, just let me know where you are heading and I will meet you there, unbeknownst to me the kids had plans to get me one of those motorized chairs if need be. So I actually enjoyed the temp and low humidity, don’t get me wrong the rain was a downer, and I had hoped for a bit more sun, at one point on our cruise I had a melt down over the rain, and if it would ever stop to bring out the sun for at least a few hours… more on this story once Lessa get to this on her TR.

I did buy Lessa a new travel mug, once we got back to the hotel that evening as I had lost the lid to her cup that morning, it was nice to have two cups anyway, one for each of us, as it did come in quite handy later in the trip.

Thank goodness Lessa has a mother who is a morning person, and who was up and out the door each morning to bring back Lessa breakfast in bed, ok, she was asleep in bed most mornings when I stepped out the door, once I was back to the room she was up, oh well I tried she has to give me credit for that at least.

Animal Kingdom is my favorite park followed by Epcot and MK and I would like to have some sun sometime when we visit, I am all in favor of staying concierge on a visit so that we can partake in the sunrise or sunset safari. I did have a FEW surprises for Lessa this rainy day at Animal Kingdom; I guess you will have to wait for Lessa to do another update.

If only I could train my brothers to fetch me drinks and breakfast in the morning. They are even worse than I am when it comes to waking up early.

I have seen the dessert party. The desserts looks good but I am upset they are using our Wishes spot to throw it! We loved sitting there to watch Wishes although that is where the RAT incident happened. ;) Not sure we would pay $20 each to sit there though.

:laughing: Well park opening was at 9 so I think we left the room at 7:30 meaning I woke up around 6:30. Yeah that was just a tad early for my liking. ;)

Just as an FYI, Publix isn't that "cheap" either, but defintely cheaper than Goodings!

Yep, he was awake and "sitting" up. I only wish I had been able to get a non-blurry shot of him since that is so rare.

Yeah, cheaper than Goodings is good and it actually looks like a nice clean well-kept and well-stocked store unlike Goodings.

:laughing: No comment on the rhino pics? I know they are your favourite. ;)
 
I've been so swamped with trying to close my house, etc.
I've been reduced to lurking mode these past 2 weeks...........:crazy:


Just wanted to pop in and say I'm loving the report and love your writing style as always.
 
Lessa I wish it could have been more sunny for you. You've seen so much rain while visiting WDW. Would you even know how to react if the sun was shining with no clouds in sight?

All the food sounded and looked good. That cinnamon roll is on my list for this next trip. Plus the ice cream sandwich.

I enjoyed the Push video. He is so funny.

Hey, I saw a Lessa-brother early at Everything Pop last year (however, by that point I had packed, eaten breakfast, showered and dropped $ in the gift shop). :cool2:

I'm impressed by how straight your hair stayed in the rain.
 
Evening Lessa !!

Hi Rosie!

Don't worry about it! Hope things calm down for you soon. :goodvibes

We were so happy when we arrived in Florida and it was beautiful and sunny. Too bad that only really lasted a day and half. At least each trip we get some sunshine if not a lot. :rolleyes:

:rotfl: How early is early? Erich did go with me to the food court one morning. Certainly wasn't fetching mom and I breakfast on his own initiative though. :rolleyes:
 
You know, I saw them and kinda went :scared:. Wasnt' sure if you'd remember my being chased by that psycho rhino last year! :laughing:

:laughing: Of course I remembered! I have an excellent memory, I scare people sometimes by remembering little random things that they said or did years before. ;)
 
Hi Lessa, OUCH on the feet and rash:headache:

Ok no food on the monorail:confused: What about all the stuff people buy at the confectionary, you think some of that stuff was for taking home to friends and stuff.

For Sept I decided not use Garden Grocer and stop at the store on the way from Universal to checking in at BWV. FYI - On All Ears Net there is directions to food stores.

I haven't been to Goodings since 92 even back then the prices were:scared1:

Looking forward to more!

Oh the monorail CM was just joking with me about "no food". ;)

I know you would be able to understand my foot issues. :goodvibes
 
I thought of you last night while walking around downtown Atlanta wearing the 'wrong' shoes! My feet are still sore.
