WAIT A SEC! I thought you didn't drink?!?!?!?

They had GREAT (albeit expensive) margarita's at the pool bar at Pop...I'm guessing they have the same at Music!

Wait...they DO have a pool bar at ASMU, right?!?!?

I know there's a bar somewhere. It may be attached to the building but there's a bar and there are expensive margaritas, I promise. But I'm not worried. If they run out at Music we can dash through the parking lots to Sports or Movies.

 

[crazyforgoofy]

Instead of brass knuckles, do you use brass ears........

Yes, we do. But it's an industry secret. shhhhhh.

They MAY run out when I'm there! Actually, no joke, I don't know if I told you, but one of the nights I went to Petals at Pop to get us Margarita's (we were over at the quiet pool that night) they RAN OUT of Patron when I got the margarita's and I had to get cheaper Tequila put in them.

This is the funniest thing I've read all day.

I'm going to use it on DH. He's started discussing taking unpaid vacation for another disney trip, and I told him we're going plenty during his paid vacation and when he starts taking unpaid days from work that's when you can tell he has a "disney problem".

There may be a 12-step program but I believe it has a horrible record of success. is a hard drug to shake.

Gotcha!!! shhhhhhhhhhh

Ok, I USUALLY don't drink.....but there is nothing better than a cold margarita on a hot day!! Am I right?????

 

[crazyforgoofy]

I'm not stealing Karen's PT or her thunder here. She's the super planner. My efforts pale in comparison to hers and to Hopes. I learned a lot of what I know about Disney World from the school of hard knocks. I no longer compete in the 'I know more about Disney than just about anyone' competitions.

'Ella and I are along for the ride. We'll sit back and relax and let Karen do the planning (and most of the driving, knowing Karen - she is a teensy bit of a control freak in case you haven't noticed.)

 

[crazyforgoofy]

Gotcha!!! shhhhhhhhhhh

I agree but I believe it's TWO cold margaritas on a hot day or any day for that matter. I bow down at the base of the blue agave plant. I'm a tequila fool.

Don't I KNOW IT!

Since M.A. has joined us, I'll share one of my stories from our trip (don't worry M.A., I'm only incriminating myself this time!) I'm sure M.A. will remember it differently as well.

So, it was day 3, I believe, and we had just done 2 straight commando days, PLUS MNSSHP. I slept for FOUR hours. I'm not sure why, part of it is b/c I have insomnia and being excited for things makes it worse. I could NOT sleep. So, I went and got coffee and sat by the pool journaling until everything got up. We headed to Epcot and I think around lunch I hit a wall. I fell asleep in the Circle of Life and thought that I just had to go back to the hotel. M.A. decided to stay at the park. As I'm headed to the exit, Savannah is having a melt-down b/c she doesn't want to leave. I start calling M.A. and of course her phone doesn't have a signal or it's off. So, I just sat down on a bench in the shade near the Character pic area and cried like a baby.

I swear, this does have something to do with Margarita's!

So, I called Rey and he calmed me down, told me I was just tired and I should try to have fun. Just about this point, I spot M.A. and her dd. I got off the phone and told her we had decided to stay and she took me STRAIGHT TO MEXICO and got me a Margarita. Here I am...hot, sweaty, and with red eyes from crying...

I was FINE after that Margarita, so I decided that WDW Margarita's are magical just like everything else there!

 

[Twoboysnmygirl]

WHO ME?!?!?!?

AND AND AND...M.A....you realize they opened the new TEQUILA BAR in Mexico, no?!?!?!? I'm blocking out a spot in the itinerary as we speak!

 

[Victoriasmom98]

OH, and just how adorable are you in this picture????

I haven't had a WDW margarita........bring on the magic!!!!

 

[Twoboysnmygirl]

I no longer compete in the 'I know more about Disney than just about anyone' competitions.

Oh GOOD, then that leaves First Place for Hope & I to fight it out over!

Sounds great. I'm starting to put my plans together too. I'm a little later than you guys but I wasn't sure which parks we were going to be in on which days, so now that I think I got that down i'm almost ready to put my planned out days up. It feels closer every time I plan out another day

And that picture of you with the margarita is great. You poor thing!

 

[crazyforgoofy]

WHO ME?!?!?!?

AND AND AND...M.A....you realize they opened the new TEQUILA BAR in Mexico, no?!?!?!? I'm blocking out a spot in the itinerary as we speak!

A tequila bar? a TEQUILA bar? I may need to be rolled out of there. Tequila and warm weather and a busy schedule = one tequila, two tequila, three tequila world showcase sidewalk.

I only remember you being hot and tired and needing a margarita. But then I think we always needa margarita.

PM-
DTD boat to POFQ
dinner at Sassagoula Floatworks, check out resort for Rey & Karen's Anniversary trip!

Schedule works for me. Love Sassagoula Floatworks. I hope the food is as good as it was the last time I stayed there (2006). POFQ holds a special place in my heart. It's the first place on Disney property a teeny little girl first felt the magic only three weeks after she came to us on 2002. Her eyes grew as big as saucers taking it all in. She floated around the place giggling, oooooooooohing and awwwwwwwwwwing. The 'big scary faces' hanging from the ceiling of Floatworks freaked her out a little but she just snuggled closer which was just fine with me and with Poppa.

forgot - subbing. duh.
