[jcc0621]

For your feet....

That Alex got on R N C

To dopey dad who took your stroller.

Looking at those maps really make you realize how much walking you actually do at WDW don't they..........

Can't wait for Monday

 

[dreamn_Disney]

Well, while that was a good stroller story I was hoping it was that you couldn't find the parking spot again like me. I had to have a CM walk me over from where we met the PR. I had not a clue where I was or how to get back to M3D.
Sorry you missed Cars.
Yes, that guy with your stroller was a doof. I would have had a hard time not kicking him in the brain.
I never thought to redneck all those photos . One more thing to do that embarrass my dd next trip. I am sure she will want to thank you for this one.
DD is sitting on the couch begging me to please say I am kidding.
Ya for Alec he got to ride.

 

[WDWHeather]

Oh my goodness. Silly man takin' your stroller!

Great that you both were able to get on R'n'R!

Walking across the parks an be brutal when your feet are hurting. OH man, I feel for you!

 

[2tinkerbells]

Just got caught up on your TR. That is a hike from Star Tours to RNR. We missed RNR but hope to catch it next time. I am with you on the sore feet. I wore my Athens almost everyday but after all the walking I had to wear tennis shoes the last day.

 

[dismom9761]

Thats great taht Alec got to ride and felt fine after.

That stinks about that clueless mab taking your stroller and stressing you like that.

DM,could you tell me how to put the links in the first page?I have the page and post numbers but I would like to put links to my updates.

 

[Goofyluver]

Don't the CMs know about rednecking photos??? Geez...

 

[dismom9761]

Don't the CMs know about rednecking photos??? Geez...

I had no problems doing it and I took a ton.I know I got a dirty look at Test track but I may have been overly sensitive.

 

[scottny]

what a foolish man taking your stroller. Glad he did not sick or anything on RNRC. Really who needs pics with the way you describe things.

off topic here - next Friday night your main man rob Thomas will be on Bill Maher thought you would like to know. At least it said Rob Thomas I presume it is him.

 

[Disneyland_Mama]

I know sometimes CMs rearrange strollers so I wasn’t worried. I started casually looking around for it. Not anywhere in immediate eyesight. I then started getting a bit frantic and walked up and down with Alec and Brookie looking for the stroller amongst all the other
strollers. It absolutely positively was not there. Somebody stole our stroller! Now I really was freaking because it was our own stroller, not the rented one.

Same thing happened to me! Well sort of.

The next thing I was worried about was how Alec would do with a roller coaster that flipped as much as this one does. He had never done that before (and remember, this is the kid who has gotten sick on the plane descent). Too late now! Off we went through the streets of Los Angeles with Aerosmith blasting in our ears.

So tell me, did he like it?

And this is where I have to end this update. I know. Only pictures of maps. That is why I am posting this on the weekend and not on Monday like my usual update. Therefore, you get an extra update! Don't you all feel special? And I promise that my next update will really satisfy...in pictures at least!

Well, that's just willy nilly, DM. Here I am already to read a nice big fat trip installment of YOURS and you go limp on me!

LY!

Nooooo!! Damn Comcast for taking away my HBO!

I really miss Bill Maher, that was my update on politics without being bored.

 

[blue_river]

What's the big idea slipping in new installments over the weekend?

Okay, that guy was an idiot but it did seem like an honest mistake.

You have my sympathy with the sore feet thing

Looking forward to some good reading Monday morning (with pics )

 

[shannon47142]

Thanks for posting links for your trip updates!! I finally caught up and now can continue to enjoy your reporting and reading along with the comments in real time again!!
Thanks for the pictures of Sci Fi diner-- my daughter now wants to try out the cars for a meal!!

 

[Lifelong_Dreamer]

Wow, stupid man taking your stroller. I would have lost it on him too.

At least you got to go on RnRC after all that confusion with the stroller and missing Cars.

Too bad you didn't get to redneck your photo.

 

[SwansLoveDisney]

Reading about hurting feet makes me nervous! I can feel your pain.

 

[Disneyolic]

Great update DM! Sorry to ear about the stroller mess though-- I will definitly try to designate our strollers somehow so this doesnt happen.
I will not be able to read your next few updates because we are leaving for disny tommrrow But Ill catch up when I can!!!

Thanks. See you soonish.

Phew, so glad you found the stroller. Some people , Really!

So sad about Cars. They cut those lines off fast though, it really sucks.

Missing Cars is one of the biggest bummers!

Yeah, what was up the TGMR having such long waits? Usually that ride has a short wait.

I can't believe you walked all the way back to RnR with your sore feet.

So glad you had a great ride with Alec. BTW the same thing happened on one of my trips with the ride photo. I was so ticked, because we did not wait for people and immediately walked up to the little screens and did not see our photo at all.

So what did Alec think of the ride. I'm kinda scared though because you said he "seemed fine". Hmmmmm foreshadowing??

I don't know. The line was freakishly long outside in the bright sunlight. I did that wait once in July heat and I was not about to do that again. Totally not worth it. Alec said something cute about the ride but you'll have to wait.

For your feet....

That Alex got on R N C

To dopey dad who took your stroller.

Looking at those maps really make you realize how much walking you actually do at WDW don't they..........

Can't wait for Monday

It is sad for my feet! And Rob was mad at me for it because he blamed it on my precious Crocs! I love looking at those maps to revisualize the walk.

Well, while that was a good stroller story I was hoping it was that you couldn't find the parking spot again like me. I had to have a CM walk me over from where we met the PR. I had not a clue where I was or how to get back to M3D.

Ya for Alec he got to ride.

Sorry, I was smart where I parked it... Just wish other people were as smart as I am! Rednecking photos was hard at first but then it was like, so what? I'm glad I have the pics now!

 

[Disneyolic]

Oh my goodness. Silly man takin' your stroller!

Great that you both were able to get on R'n'R!

Walking across the parks an be brutal when your feet are hurting. OH man, I feel for you!

And I walked fast, well as fast as my feet would allow. I really got a workout, and that's good for me!

Just got caught up on your TR. That is a hike from Star Tours to RNR. We missed RNR but hope to catch it next time. I am with you on the sore feet. I wore my Athens almost everyday but after all the walking I had to wear tennis shoes the last day.

There was no way I could miss RnRC. I love that ride plus Alec really wanted to ride it. I was not going to disappoint him again.

Thats great taht Alec got to ride and felt fine after.

That stinks about that clueless mab taking your stroller and stressing you like that.

DM,could you tell me how to put the links in the first page?I have the page and post numbers but I would like to put links to my updates.

I love that Alec got to ride it. You'll have to wait to hear his comment. I will post a separate post instructing everyone on how I do the links. A lot of people are asking now...

Don't the CMs know about rednecking photos??? Geez...

Really! But Disney really should put all ride photos on Fast Pass! Save me the trouble.

I had no problems doing it and I took a ton.I know I got a dirty look at Test track but I may have been overly sensitive.

You probably got a dirty look because you can get that one on Fast Pass....

I'm glad you like the way I describe things. Okay, no more pictures then............kidding! Sadly, I don't have HBO. I have Showtime for free right now but I don't like paying for those channels as we never really watch them. I think all I have watched on Showtime is Big Brother After Dark...

Same thing happened to me! Well sort of.

Giving away secrets of your TR?

So tell me, did he like it?

You'll find out all in good time...all in good time.

Well, that's just willy nilly, DM. Here I am already to read a nice big fat trip installment of YOURS and you go limp on me!

LY!

Limp? Limp???? You should feel honored that I even posted on the weekend. I never do that! But I still LY/MI.

Nooooo!! Damn Comcast for taking away my HBO!

I really miss Bill Maher, that was my update on politics without being bored.

I like Bill Mahar too but not enough to pay for HBO.

 

[Disneyolic]

What's the big idea slipping in new installments over the weekend?

Just trying to keep the Canadians on their toes.

Okay, that guy was an idiot but it did seem like an honest mistake.

No sympathizing with the idiot.

You have my sympathy with the sore feet thing

But you can sympathize for me...thanks!

Looking forward to some good reading Monday morning (with pics )

Did I say it was going to be Monday morning?????

Thanks for posting links for your trip updates!! I finally caught up and now can continue to enjoy your reporting and reading along with the comments in real time again!!
Thanks for the pictures of Sci Fi diner-- my daughter now wants to try out the cars for a meal!!

You are quite welcome! I think the themeing for Sci-Fi is great! Just totally a change of pace and cool.

Wow, stupid man taking your stroller. I would have lost it on him too.

At least you got to go on RnRC after all that confusion with the stroller and missing Cars.

Too bad you didn't get to redneck your photo.

What? No sympathy for my feet? But yes, RnRC did ROCK baby!

Reading about hurting feet makes me nervous! I can feel your pain.

Thank you. It's always nice to hear SOME people sympathize for my feet.

HOW DM DOES HER FANCY SCHMANCY LINKS...

1. After you finish and post your update, go to the upper right of your post where they have your post # and click on that.
2. This will bring up a separate window with that post only in it. Go up to the address and highlight and copy it.
3. You can then exit that window and return back to the original post's window.
4. Go to the post that you want to place the link click "edit".
5. Then click "advanced" under the edit mode.
6. Go to where you want to post the link and then hit the link icon (world with link).
7. Hit "Ctrl V" and that will bring up your saved post's link.
8. After that, a section will still be highlighted, you can type whatever you want in that highlighted section (ie, name of update).
9. That's it. Save your edit and try the link to make sure it works!

 

[dismom9761]
