My husband keeps asking me what I am doing. To which I reply, "Honey, they are HERE, don't you remember....THE tour with my friends from the DIS???" "GOSH!"

 

[catotigger]

HA! I love it, Cat! (My DD just walked up to the computer and asked, "Why is she flashing green?")

Wow! Your DD is very observant!

So what did you tell her as to WHY I was flashing green?

 

[FirstTimeCaller]

Is the bus stuck again? Do we need gas money?

 

[DISgeeksfromDC]

Wow! Your DD is very observant!

So what did you tell her as to WHY I was flashing green?

I said that you were feeling a little sick. (I probably also mentioned that you were rolling/spinning in a barrel.) 'Didn't necessarily explain that it was heading over a waterfall, though, because -- with little kids -- you don't always have to volunteer everything you know!

THAT would have really jump-started a relentless line of questioning, followed by 1,000 "don't try this a home" disclaimers! ('Seems my DD is about as inquisitive as me -- possibly more.... )

We interrupt this program to bring you the link to Justin Muchoney's new thread "Chat with the Chief Magic Official." (For those of you who may be new to this thread, Justin is the first-ever Disney Parks Chief Magic Official (CMO). He triumphed over 1,300 other applicants to receive the coveted title, which was awarded Tuesday, April 22, during a ceremony in the Magic Kingdom's Rose Garden. Aside from this special distinction, he also happens to be an all-around nice guy! )

Check out Justin's new thread for details about the competition and his new CMO role. He also welcomes questions!

Once again, congratulations, Justin! And, thanks for taking us along for the ride!

Thanks, Justin! 'Glad to help! (BTW, I also posted your link on the "Adventures of the 'Moms' Panel" thread.)

Wow! 'Looks like things already are hopping on your "Chat with the Chief Magic Official" thread! You've already received a lot of comments -- and that's from new folks who aren't simply stopping in to show their support! (You're famous! ) How very exciting!!

Hi Everyone,

It looks like you will be rolling into town right when we are leaving town to go to WV. We leave on the 29th and won't be back until the 2nd. Do you want to hang out in Louisiana until after the 2nd or do you want to take a little detour and go somewhere else before you come here? I've been working a bit on our visit to Indiana, but I know I won't be ready before we leave. Let me know what everyone wants to do. Suz D

Hey Suz....just wanted to say that I'm thinking of you! I still have a couple of boxes in our laundry room from when we thought we were going to move (a long story) anyway, every time I bump into them I think about you getting ready for your big move. Anyway..that's it. Just thinking about you and sending you smiles! Hope it's all going smoothly!

[Suz D]

Bless you Amy for your cheery thoughts! I really need them. My tummy is turning (I'm greener than Cat pretty much all the time). I honestly don't have a contingency plan in place and that is SO unlike me. Nowhere to live on the other end, the house not listed on this end, rent sky high in Morgantown, and stress galore. This too shall pass, but I just hope I live through it.

I just wanted to say how much your post picked me up. Just to know someone who I've never met is thinking about me goes a long way!

You are terrific!

While we are waiting to get back on the road here I'll share a contest- Disneyfamily.com is having a crazy baby hair contest, and the prize is a $5,000 scholarship (sorry no Disney trip prize). My nephew is in- feel free to vote for him, or enter your own cute babies! I know there are a lot of cute diser babies/toddlers on this thread...

Good luck everyone! I hope you all had a great 3 day weekend.

Here is my nephew (this was on our last Disneyland trip, it was a little too hot!)- Max's hair

Hey DSNY4ever! I just voted for Max!

Wow - 102 degrees? Yikes!

 

[DSNY4ever]

Thanks Cat! Yeah it was way too hot, and it was only April! Get ready road trippers by the time you get out to the Sacramento area where I live it will most likely be boiling hot, so I hope everyone packed their swimsuits- a dip in the freezing Lake Tahoe will be just what we'll need to cool off!

Hey Everyone, I am back from vacation. I am downloading some pictures of vacation but also of the route on my way home from the time we got back into Louisiana so I hope everyone is almost ready to resume our tour. Get your bags packed, pack a light lunch and gas up the bus, the tour will be commencing this week!!!!

Can't wait Mommom!!

I'll post some pictures of Hersheypark but I'll wait until our next "slow" period...

And yes, 3Guys -- No hurries, no worries!

Oh good! 'Looking forward to it! (Welcome back, btw! I hope you had a terrific vacation!)

Meanwhile, we're still waiting for madbrad to wrap his part of the tour (I think). 'Seems he left off at the Talladega Superspeedway with plans to continue our tour of Alabama.

This concludes our first part of the trip. I hope everyone has enjoyed our short tour of Talladega and the surrounding areas, especially you Ann! Our next stop is Birmingham, AL. Look out, here we come!

Hey, madbrad: Are you still out there?

Hey, Suz:

Considering it's almost Wednesday already, I'm thinking the wait until your [Monday, June 2] return won't seem too terribly long.

Plus, if I understand correctly, madbrad still has to wrap up his leg of the journey, followed by Disneymommom's tour of Louisiana. Maybe Marshay can post her Hershey Park photos then. (Hopefully, that will keep us busy for a while... )

Does anyone have any strong preferences? (Thoughts? Comments? ...Snide remarks? )

Travel safely!!
