Good to hear Scotty.
How wonderful that you got to meet up with Brenda and Em
Great picture of you all with Donald outside
Linda, I was so excited. If I'm not mistaken, you've met them before?
Thanks; I thought the picture turned out well since they had the photopass photographer, our cameras, phones, etc., to take pictures.
Going to back to a couple of your responses to my replies-
I always wondered why the line for Peter Pan is so long all the time. I suspect that since it is a low capacity ride/slow loader (kind of like Dumbo) and since it is a ride everyone in the family can enjoy (again, like Dumbo), the lines build up. We love Peter Pan, but the only time we will ride is first thing in the morning or with a FP.
You are right, it is a slow loader; but to me it always seems slower than Dumbo was. We don't do it either unless first thing or FP (spoiler alert...did not do this trip).
You also commented about how your tennis shoes were wet for at least two days. We experienced that on our trip during Tropical Storm Faye in 2008. I think my shoes are still wet!!!
Wow...I remember reading about that storm.
I'll add my favorite storm picture to the collection. The boys can hardly walk because the wind is whipping:
It looks like the boys will blow over in a heartbeat.
Where are the crocodiles in Dinoland???
It's hard to explain. I believe you can exit Dinoland two ways: one way goes towards the Nemo show; the other way which I believe is nearer the Dig Site, is where the crocodile is.
I LOVE your pictures of EE. The silhouette shot and picture of the riders coming out of the mountain are fantastic. Also love the redneck ride photo of Mark.
Thank you so much. Mark truly looks scared to death and he's been on it numerous times.
The Dino ride photo is great too. Looks like you had a bunch of posers riding along with you.
Maybe Disney ought to surprise us and move the camera so we don't all pose anymore?
The knit hat Mark is modeling in the dino dump shop may be my favorite so far.
That's a cute one.
Or it was until I saw you wearing the giraffe ears! That would make a really great addition to a Halloween costume!
I really am sorry I didn't bring those home with me.
I am officially jealous of you for meeting up with Brenda and Emmy and of them for having a chance to meet up with you too! What nice pictures from your get together.
We worked hard on setting up that date and I'm so glad it worked perfectly with our breakfast times.
We have been to the Tusker House breakfast once- we enjoyed the food and the character interaction.
It's my second favorite after Crystal Palace (Cape May used to but I think the food selection there has gone down considerably).
Yes to both. Loved the breakfast and our new friends.
to all these rain pictures and stories. I guess we have been incredibly lucky. And really hoping that luck isn't running out anytime soon! Wow!!
I will keep my fingers crossed that it stays away for your trip.
I have yet to try Tusker House. In general I feel like I have a lot more exploring to do in Animal Kingdom. For example, I had no idea there were crocodiles in Dinoland! In fact I think I've only been in Dinoland once.
I think you definitely have more exploring to do at AK!
Echoing the comments of others in being thankful your brother's surgery was a success and hoping all works out on the job front.
Thank you for both.
Wow...the rides were open? They closed all the outdoor ones during this storm and I'm pretty sure with the power outage they had to close a lot more.
Isn't it wonderful when the stars align and we get to meet some amazing Dis-people! So happy you were able to spend some time with Brenda and Em
It truly is, Queen (and hoping we get to meet you next year).
We loved our TH breakfast when we were there and would definitely bobok another! Jeff of course preferred evening buffets when he was a little more on the hungry side
I think most men prefer a dinner buffet when they are hungrier.
I hope we get to meet too. I will do a PTR with our plans and hopefully we will be at the same park on the same day.
We've never eaten at the Tusker House, but after seeing these great pictures, my "only one ADR" for next trip plan maybe out the window.
It's a really good breakfast if you are breakfast people. If you time it right, you an get breakfast and lunch.
Awesome that you met Em & Brenda! I must be neglect in her TR...?
It was super meeting them; what do you mean you must be "neglect" in her TR?
Love all the photos with you, Mark & the gang at Tuskers.
Thank you.
Yay for DISmeets....wonder who the next one could be???
Gee, I wonder who?
I think it's funny that Mark does EE and you do Dinosaur. Is he scared like me?? Or is it the bumpiness? Either way, I don't do the time rovers. I'm going to be in trouble when Bradey gets old enough to like it.
Mark had neck surgery a few years ago and does not want to go through it again. He's fine on coasters because he knows how to hold his head for the motion of the car. On Tower of Terror and Dinosaur, you don't know what to expect when and it bothers him that it will mess up his neck again. Yes, you will definitely have to take Bradey on Dinosaur.
Tusker House looks amazing as usual. Have to try it next trip for sure.
You really must; I think Bradey would really enjoy it.
Can't wait to order a few carafes of that juice. Is it the same at Boma? 
What did you think of the male version of " Miss Devine ?" When he first arrived out there I read somewhere he had a name but can't remember what it is ( or where I read that 
)
