Tim(minus)Lesley's Guy's Only Trip to Disapalooza Day 3! DISAPALOOZA! pg.9 2/6

[Happydog]

This is a scream and I can't believe that you guys flew solo for this event!! So fun! Two married men alone at Disney... good grief, the stuff movies are made of.. I have to say that you managed to get through 72 hours of time at Disney with more efficiency than all of us women put together when it comes to this TR... That is definitely a "guy" thing!!!!

Looking forward to the ending.

Wow, a picture with Pete, a real celeb. Better put that in the signature.......

Nah, that cute picture of Lauren should stay.

 

[B&WMickey]

Great TR!!!! I think there are a lot of us that couldn’t make it to the big event that are living vicariously through you.

Great recap of the Party!

And congrats on that high score! I will have to go looking for that youtube video before our next trip!

Hi Tim!
Loving your report! Just have to say that I've read yours and Lesley's reports in the past but I spread myself so thin nowadays and now usually lurk more than post, however at DAP I thought I saw you . Only it was fleating, I think it was on the ride and then i thought, nahhhh...! I hadn't read that you were going to be there Makes you a bit famous I reckon !

Thanks for your take on that special night. It was so cool to be a part of and with all the lovely people we met and the podcast crew being so darn cool, I'll never forget it .

Looks like an awesome night! The Osborne lights are beautiful but I agreee the crowds get to you after a short time. Love the TSM scores. I need to find that video on you tube so I can finally beat my hubby at this on our June trip .

Great update! We love the lights, we were lucky enough to record them dancing 2 different times and it is a much watch for us during the holidays. We can't wait to go back when our kids are older to experience it again. Those were some pretty good scores on your final round, good job.

What a great night ! Riding TSM all night without a wait ... that is awesome. I love the part about Lesley calling to threaten you about winning the cruise ... too funny.

 

[RinkyTinkyTinky]

Did I miss something or did you not tell us if you won the cruise!!!?????

 

[timandlesley]

Did I miss something or did you not tell us if you won the cruise!!!?????

Sorry!!

We did NOT win the cruise, it went to (KENNYTHEPIRATE) from the DIS. It was him and his I think 9 year old daughter, they scored over 300,000.

We had a great time though, maybe next time.

Aww that's too bad! I was really thinking that you won since you guys announced that you are doing a cruise this summer! Still looked like an awesome night!

 

[DWGal210]

The DIS party looked like so much fun!! What a great time - I have yet to ride TSM....on our last trip in December, there was always a crazy wait (one time it went up to 4 HOURS) so I'll just have to put that on my list for next time!

Love your TR, great job!

 

[LISAMWDW]

Great update! Love all the hard work on the ride! Great job over 200,000! The Xmas lights are awesome! Been to WDW for Xmas but didn't have time to hit the DS park.

Love that you have your arm around Brian in the pic! So sweet! LOL

 

[IWISHFORDISNEY]

Great trip report Tim. I am sad I didnt get to run into you. I have been reading your trip reports for years. I had a blast at TSM party too. I agree all the podcasters are so nice!!

 

[MAGICFOR2]

Hi Tim! I'm enjoying your TR I somehow missed the end of Lesley's TR in my Nov/Dec busyness - I just started thinking about you guys yesterday and wondered what you were up to - I knew there had to be another trip in the works, but 2! Plus this one of yours I'm excited about your Dream cruise! You will love it!

 

[sharonW]

HEY! Come back soon, dying to hear more!

 

[Sooze]

We ate outside, the meal was great, and weather was nice. We were anxiously trying to get through our meal so we could get to the park.

Oh no... you must NEVER rush a Disney meal!! Shame on you!

Apple Tostada for desert (very tasty)

Please tell me you didn't rush THIS?! YUM!!!

After dinner we went to the bus stop at the Springs to catch a bus to the Hollywood studios, AGAIN we got a bus right away, doesn’t get any better than that.

Nice bus mojo... that makes for an awesome trip!

 

[Sooze]

At this point there were so many people in the street, and it took almost 15-20 minutes to make it from one end of the road to the other. It was utter madness!!!

Oh my GOSH!! TOTALLY! Wasn't it ReDONKulous?! Honestly, I took away from the beauty of the lights for me. Like you say below, the initial shock of the lights took my breath away. But as soon as we tried to move around and see all of them.. I just wanted to get out! It was mob scary crowded!

With that said though, these lights literally take your breath away!!! I really missed my wife and kids during this, because this was a moment you want to share someone. So Bryan and I stopped and embraced each other tightly and took in more lights.

Aw... so glad you could remember your poor family back home, and share the moment with your man...

But Bryan had a stroke of genius; he found a video on You Tube that showed all the secrets on each level and how to get the highest score. We watched the video as many times as possible and felt pretty good about it, but now we had to put it to practice.

This is amazing... who knew?! Only the TRUEST of Disney fans would take the time to figure this stuff out!

In the distance we could hear our escorts, the Green Army Men:

SWEEEEEEET!!
