Tiaras and Tantrums 08-- The Farewell. . . Will YOU join us next year?

Magic Kingdom is a dry park, but it appeared that Queen Shuggie had snuck something in. She was passed out on the ground again, but this time was almost fatal!:scared1:

We rescued her just in time (and wiped a bit of ketchup off) and decided it was time to take her shOOOOOOOOOOping! That whole thing with the stores all being attached along Main Street is possibly the greatest innovation. Do you know you can spend a very long time in there? I mean VERY long?! We did :teeth: And we took our time and looked at everything

twice.

We found our TnT tiaras for next year:

Phors finally headed outside as we were finishing up our purchases. She found someone to talk to

IMG_2086.jpg


and apparently told him all about what Queen Shuggie had been up to so far.

After her stern talking too we figured we had better head out. And the Security Officer decided to follow us. Not only him, but we noticed several manager looking types also following us. CRAP, they finally remembered who we are! They found the pictures mugshots from last year.

Then we heard him say "clear to the gates", and it dawned on us that we were the only guests there! We shopped so long that the park closed and cleared and they were all waiting for us to get the heck out! I tried to slow down for a second but Mr. Security Escort Guy was right there to make sure we kept moving.

Rut Roh. We are the last 4 people in the parks. Do they still have transportation? Yep! A transportation guy met us outside the gates and told us to go to bus stop #8. At the bus stops we were met by a whole crew of transportation people. And we were told to just get on the first bus in the line. We tried to protest that we had been told to go to #8 and we didn't want to get in trouble with the first guy. But this group had a guy with a glowing orange stick, and apparently that trumps whatever plan the first guy had. Glowing stick guy made sure we safely found our way to the bus that was right in front of us. And he took a definite shine to Phors. We were actually a bit afraid he was going to try to go back to the resort with us! He made himself comfy on the seat next to her and was showing us all of his Jedi Glowing Stick moves. I know Phors was having a very hard time resisting the force.

Our bus driver was Dave, who we are pretty sure had either pissed off his boss, or drawn the short straw since he had to drive us home! He left the lights on the bus the entire trip. We suspect that he was really afraid we were going to try to sneak up on him. Kimmi did think about going up and licking his ear. . .

Safely back at the hotel and thank goodness Glowing Stick Guy had been left at the MK.

Cause if he hadn't. . .

It was Mike's anniversary and her sweet husband had sent her flowers. Of course Queen Shuggie thought they must be for Her Royal Highness

So we had closed down MK. Litterally. Time for bed. But first I had to check the telephone messages and Shuggie was pestering me to check in on the DIS.

So Flat Shuggie had now met security twice in one day. And Wilson was missing. What more could happen? :confused3


:rolleyes1
 
Great installment and what an honor to be the last guests of the evening!!
 
Only you ladies would be the last out of the park. And I think the Queen will have you beheaded for what nearly happened to her! :scared1:
 

My sister and I were the last out a few years back. You are sort of embarassed and proud of yourself at the same time :rotfl:

I think you all were using Flat Queen Shuggie as a diversion so security wouldn't know what YOU were up to. Kinda like blaming your farts on the dog. :sad2:

The 1st couple of times Scrappy called me from MK I couldn't hear anything but muffled sorta music and since I didn't have her cell programed into my phone I didn't know it was her :flower3: But once we connected I quickly put on the light up glowing headband Mickey ears Phors had gotten me last year as a gift and listened to Wishes while I cried my eyes out.....deperately wishing I was there. I had 1/2 jokingly told Scrappy to call me from Wishes and was so touched she remembered. I've had a hard time the last few weeks with all the surgery, isolation and pain on top of all my other issues that I was getting pretty depressed and feeling very lonely. It was exactly what I needed when I needed it :hug: I love these women so much and was crushed I hadn't been able to go :sad1:
 
Ok, I just read this whole report. I am crying from laughing so hard. I love you all. I need to go to WDW with you. I can't even imagine how much fun you had.

The first thing I noticed was in your first post. The view out of your balcony looks right over one of the bridges on the Boardwalk. DH and I were there last month with our two kids and we decided to rent one of those surrey bikes. It was loads of fun until we reached this hill. First time was a little tough, second time even harder, third time we had to get out an push. PLEASE tell me that you sat on your balcony and watched poor people trying to get over that hill in their surrey bikes??? I swore to DH that we would one day stay in one of those rooms just so we could see the poor people like us struggling and sweating and screaming to get over that hill!:rotfl:

IMG_1677.jpg


I love the report and I love how much fun y'all had together. Sorry for the y'all. I'm from Louisiana! Keep it up and can't wait to hear more!!!
 
I'm not sure about the other girls but my sister and I did make fun of the bikers and the joggers. Can you imagine? Jogging?!! As if you don't get enough exercise at WDW!! Of course they probably aren't getting belly fat ads on their trip report.......:rolleyes1 :rotfl:
 
I forgot that I took this picture to document the tortuous hill. Poor DH. Push! Push!

I would definitely have to plan an afternoon to sit on the balcony with a bottle of wine and people watch.
 
That Shuggie is a handful! Frisk her next time before heading to MK.;)

What a memorable park closing...for the CMs! :rotfl2:
 
Look at this cast member's face.....it looks like he's thinking "I can't BELIEVE I have to pick up another drunk guest on a stick!" :rotfl2:

IMG_3413.jpg
 
I am NOT just another drunk guest on a stick :eek: I'm Queen Shuggie of Cookieland and Empress of the State of PUI :snooty: And those accomodations would be SOOOO 2nd rate for royalty :sad2:

That Shuggie is a handful even when she's not on the stick :rotfl: Just ask my King Consort The Muffin :lmao:

That is so funny! I had no idea there was free entertainment from the balcony, besides the fireworks! Next time I will have to make sure I am out there to watch and heckle!:lmao:

Of course I am wondering why you took that hill for a 3rd time?? I can understand the first -- you had no idea how bad it would be. The 2nd cause you have to get back to where you started, but THE THIRD????:confused3

Start planning now to join us in the fall! We haven't set a date yet but we are welcoming all that are crazy enough to join us. Nurse Tink is from Arkansas so that is close enought to Lousiana! And I used to live in Texas so a good y'all slips from me every once in awhile.

Yes, I can imagine it would be hysterical. The reason we went up the hill three times is because you are only allowed to go one way around the boardwalk and we paid $20 for 30 minutes. If it were up to me, I would have kept turning around between the hills (there's another one near the international gateway) and given my legs a break! What a work out. And I totally agree about the people jogging while at Disney. Really, do you need that much cardio in your life? Now get out my way so I can get a corndog.

I will definitely keep in mine y'alls fall trip. It sounds like a blast! And I need to hear the New Hampshire accent in real life!
 
LMAO:lmao:

Just read your whole trippie thus far:thumbsup2

I am from Central Florida and I call those bumpy green critter crockogaters too ;)

I though Wilson was lost at sea:confused3
 
I am more sorry I missed this since I caught up with the report.

:lmao: I love the look on the guys face at Prime Time. Had to share that one with Myster. Actually the background people in lots of pics looking at you guys is hilarious too.

Queen Shuggie ended up on the ground again. :rotfl2:
 
I think it's cause she likes looking at the stars! :rolleyes1
 
Time for my favorite day so far. . .

SHOOOOOOOOOOOOOPING!


Kimmi and Mike were up and out and off to one of the parks but Phors, Shuggie and I decided to hit Downtown Disney. Off to wait for the Downtown Disney bus.


Bus!
Nope. Animal Kingdom.


Bus!
Nope. Magic Kingdom.



Bus!
Nope. Magic Kingdom.


Okay, what is going on???? Yesterday the buses went to Downtown Disney but not Animal Kingdom. Today none are going to Downtown Disney. And Shuggie had to bust a wee!:scared1: No one else was waiting for the bus so she decided to just scoot behind the bushes.

IMG_3430.jpg


We just can't take her anywhere.:rolleyes:



Bus!
Nope. Animal Kingdom.


Bus!
Finally!! Downtown Disney.


Crap. It is a lift bus. I hate the lift buses. They shake and rattle and make me nervous. For those that didn't get to read last years report, that is the reason for my siggy picture. Those lifts going up and down are scarier than Tower of Terror! So to carry on the tradition I assumed the ToT position.

Not really a ton of photos because I was too busy spending money. But I did fufill a promise to Queen Shuggie. We had talked about going to Bibbidy Bobbity Boutique last year and again this year. So we made sure she got to go.

She chose the Cinderella Dress:
