What's the Sitch? The Great Disney D-Tour! (12/19 Lego Tribute)

[thecapells]

Hello everyone.
Sorry I've been out of touch - busy editing over 400 Photopass pics from our Halloween Adventure!

As for this TR, Photopass should turn my pics back on on 11/12 and I promise to have an update posted then!
I need to catch up after all!!

In the meantime, I was surprised that no one has figured out our next destination.
Does noone recall where our little buccaneers can unwind during Flower & Garden complete with vessels and golden dubloons?

 

[All7OfUs]

Gosh, I am just clueless on this one! I would have said the Viking ship, but they took that out. Doubloons?

Oh, wait... HOLD IT---STOP THE MUSIC!!

I got it!

It's Donald's Duckboat Ride. Oy vey!!

You took a cruise on the Rio del Tempo!!

Am I right??!!

There's treasure on the Gran Fiesta Tour?
Either way, that's not it (hint - wrong direction around the World Showcase).
Sounds like I've got you stumped...

 

[All7OfUs]

I will admit it! You have me TOTALLY AND COMPLETELY stumped! I have not a clue where you could mean.

If I go right instead of left- I hit Canada, UK, France, Morocco, then Japan, the US.

Vessels?? Kids unwinding?

I know America has a clipper ship replica.

France had something "doubloon-ish" at one time. But that Spain was the first to mint these. (Hence, I guessed Mexico)

WOW!! I just have no idea here...

I feel so evil keeping you in suspense.
But my account should reset tomorrow (Thursday) and I'll post our next stop then!

We are going on my daughter's wish trip in the spring (probably April) and I've been reading this TR but I can't see the photos! What am I doing wrong? It has a photobucket symbol that says bandwidth exceeded, upgrade to pro. I already have a photobucket pro account. Obviously others can see the photos. I'm bummed. I was so excited to see so many "photos" of the garden festival....

Sorry about that.
Apparently the bandwidth was exceeded for my photobucket account.
I'm lazy and only have the free photobucket account, not the pro.
My bandwidth should reset tomorrow (Thursday).
Check again and you'll see that the pictures are all back.
In fact, I'll post another update then as well!

Oh good! (I mean, that I'm not doing something wrong - I thought I finally had this place figured out!) I can't wait to catch up. Thanks!

 

[yinyanggirls]

My son absolutely loves the Lego store too. We tried to figure out what the blue Lego guy was too. We finally decided he was a cool guy with dreadlocks listening to music. Probably a wrong guess, but that's what we said.

Yay! I can see pics! The blue guy reminded me of this one person on Doodlebops? Mine never watched it, but I think that was the name...

Yeah - pics are back!
I promise to post an update tonite (maybe even two to catch up some).
And, yeah, the blue guy does kinda look like Mo from Doodlebops...

 

[pipersmom]

I followed yinyanggirls over here, what an awesome TR! I loove all the piccies from the Flower & Garden. Looking forward to the next update

Thanks for the kind words.
Hopefully I can continue to keep you entertained.
So Welcome Aboard!

 

[All7OfUs]

Can I just also welcome pipersmom too?!! Yay! You found one of the best TRs on the boards right now! And with the Capell's there's also another one right around corner.

Still am stumped at the clue. But thinking hard on it. If I lose a night's sleep, I'm comin' at ya!

Thanks for the kind words.
And I am pretty far behind in reports.
I have two more to go after I finish this one.
But I don't think it'll last to our next trip.
I can't drag it out that long (Feb 2011) - you'd all kill me!
But I imagine once I finish, I can at least start a PTR for the next one...

 

[thecapells]

Sorry it's been so long.
Now back to your regularly scheduled TR...

 

[thecapells]

We decided to stop for a snack and grabbed a Frozen Strawberry drink using a snack on our dining plan.
We all split it but it was VERY refreshing!!

After a brief stop for brain freeze, we continued travelling the globe.
I knew the kids were antsy so I made for the Flower and Garden Pirate Zone

This was a little area made up of some fun for little ones.
For the adults were the really cool topiaries of Captain Hook and the Crocodile

Our pirate liked these as well – finally, something that wasn’t “girly!”

In the middle of the area was a spiderweb-like climbing apparatus.
Only the “bigger” kids were allowed on this and the CM asked each child if they were over a certain age before allowing them on.
I think the minimum age was 5 or 6.

That’s okay – the princesses and fairies were able to take a cruise while waiting for their older siblings.

And their cruise led them to a treasure chest full of gold!
(okay so it wasn't quite dubloons)

DD finally convinced DS to come join her so they both launched themselves onto the high seas!

There was another boat on the other side of the area as well

But make sure the croc doesn’t get you!

Finally, the boats discovered land the kids were ready to move on.
Speaking of boats, that’s what X was watching about now.

But with the smell of sausages in the air and whimsical music playing throughout the courtyard, I once again reached into my pocket.
And once again we were transformed into a crack team of super agents ready to help Kim Possible.
Okay, Wade – What’s the sitch?

I spend the majority of my time over on the pre-trippies board; and of course, we'd LOVE to have you join us for the fun over there! They are threads of a different breed! You never know where they are going to end up going, and usually digress into a whole bunch of nonsensical chatter about all kinds of strange subjects. Very fun, though, I admit!

OK. THat was tricky!! I knew that it couldn't be part of the "normal" EPCOT. Now I understand... it was temp exhibit just for F&G!! We went during F&G last trip, but sadly didn't sneek into hardly any of the exhibits, as my dad was already antsy and trying to rush us through WS.

Looks like X was more impressed with the real deal of boats than the ones that don't go anywhere.

Yeah, I was being sneaky.
But it was fun watching you guys try to guess!!!
X was definitely more impressed with the real boats as you'll see in the next update...

That pirate area looks so cute. I don't remember seeing that but it looks like a lot of fun for the kids! for more Kim Possible adventures!

It looks like the Pirate Zone was a hit - I even saw it in the descriptions for the 2010 F&G.
And yeah, we LOVE Kim Possible and the next one is probably our favorite...
