We're Baaaaack!! **The WLV's groupies & Trivia Thread chapter 3

[Granny]

Sorry Groupies, off topic.

Hmmmm, how about if I said something like "I wonder how closely Reversing Falls in NS resembles the falls at WL?"

And since we still have "trivia" in the thread name, what would be the name of those falls at WL that you're referring to??

Thought the dog's name was Doug, but it is Dug.

Thanks! I love him too! As a matter of fact I liked UP so much I'm thinking of going to see the 3D version tomorrow morning all by myself. When I took the boys they wanted to see the 2D version. This is also my last 4 days of freedom, errr I mean, last 4 days before school gets out. Lots of stuff to get done before then.

What fun! I was telling DD that I have to get my picture taken with Dug if he is there in Sept. I wouldn't mind seeing it again but I have to save my money for Harry Potter! One month to go!

Holy Cow! Must have been a "mathamatical" error on their part! Happened to us once - owed us $$ back and got a letter saying we owed them $$. Somehow they missed the ( ) signs.......

Any word on the job??? Waiting here with fingers crossed!

Thanks everyone for the job hunting well wishes -- very frustrating to say the least!

Love Russel and Dug!!! Now we just need the bird. Oh what was her name?

That's right! Make sure you pronounce it right!

Hey I've got a CRT question if that's okay. We have an ADR for lunch and when I looked up the menu on another site it says it is family style but that you pick the entree you want. Huh? How does that work? To me family style is Liberty Tree Tavern dinner.

Hmm. Now how to get this back on topic. Can't wait to eat at Whispering Canyon in Sept.!!
(How was that Muushka?)

The bird's name was Kevin.

Back on topic - hmmm I've seen some birds at VWL!

I guess I shouldn't post my news, because it's way off topic.

I knew you would know it! Thanks!
Oh but if we didn't post things about our lives this thread wouldn't be so warm and welcoming! That is what I love about this thread. We all love the VWL as our common ground that brought us here in the first place. We can come here to talk about that but we can also come here to share our lives knowing that everyone will be supportive. I don't think there is another thread where people are as close and as good to each other. Groupies rock!!!!

 

[DisneyNutzy]

Another big for UP! The family loved it!

Silver Creek Falls is the only name I can remember. Are there other "named" falls at WL? Although I can't say that I have ever seen them flowing in reverse...

I better retire on a high note -- it's only downhill from here!

Anyone know if Bossomz is back from her cruise?

 

[Muushka]

Good sidestep and return Muushka

Thanks JT

The certified letter goes out today, fingers crossed. It wasn't a mathematical error, it was a reporting error or just a little too complicated for the IRS. But they had no difficult calculating those interest and penalty fees.

I hope to hear something real soon, or I am going to call about the job!

Anyone know if Bossomz is back from her cruise?

blossomz June 28-July 1 DCL

She hasn't left yet, unless I misunderstood the dates and put them down wrong!

That can't be a DIS-appropriate user name!

 

[BWV Dreamin]

I mean Blossomz!!!!! Quick, hide this post from Granny!!

Nice catch Ammo! I didn't even notice that the first time I read the post.

 

[Muushka]

And I quoted it!

Hey...I don't leave for Kidani until next Tuesday!! Cannot wait! Meanwhile..we leave for the cruise on the 28th!


I think I need to get over and see UP before I leave!!!!!

 

[eliza61]

On this day, in 1995 the bronze statue of Walt Disney and Mickey Mouse called "Partners" is installed in front of the castle near main st. at the MK.

This is one of the things that make me feel I'm finally "here" whenever I go to the world.

UP will be playing on the ship!

 

[Good Ol Gal]

we are at VWL right now and last night a HUGE storm came through!
The lights right outside the arcade got knocked out so that walkway was kinda dark and creepy. (of course the arcade worked fine... gotta know your priorities )

There were leaks in the main lobby. They had towels on the floor/ under doors in those places. The water was leaking in the doors in the mail lobby that lead out to the porch. Two different ones by Roaring Fork. Then a couple other places as well.

We are enjoying our stay but it seems to be going so fast this time! The temperature is so hot and humid that we're not staying in any park for too long.

We stayed in a studio on the first floor for one night and I loved it! I requested a 1st floor room, but they said that there are none at all. I am bummed about that. I think I might just started reserving lock-offs so we can have the chance to get one.

When I arrived here at 6am on Saturday our room was ready! Then when I checked out/in on Sunday for the two bedroom at 7am our room was ready too!

We got the QSP this time for the first time and we love it!! We have eaten some really good food and surprisingly we've only eaten dinner at Roaring Fork once!
We have 2 1/2 days left and still have 28 counter service, and 37 snacks left!!!

One thing we've noticed is that we haven't seen as many photopass photographers around the parks as usual. We love to take photopass pictures so we're always on the hunt for them.

WL has had one in the lobby though! They have a bench set up in the far corner by the waterfall and elevators where they will take your picture.

Have a great day everyone!
