"You Guys Are Cast Members... Right?" - A December 2011 TR

Sometimes we all need a good scare and Dinosaur is perfect for that. I've gotten better but no matter how many times I've ridden it, I always scream at the very last dinosaur. That one is freaky! :scared1:

Great parade pictures. Don't hate me but a few years ago my family got chosen to ride on the car with Mickey Mouse. It was pretty awesome. :goodvibes
 
Hahah yes! I'm always impressed with her ability to be so calm in any situation. Kid drama OR dinosaurs on the loose. What a lady. :thumbsup2[/QUOTE] She's wonderwoman.

I hope you can let yourself enjoy the scary rides! My sister rides Dinosaur pretty much the same way you rode it the first time though. :lmao:
"Danger? HA! I walk on the wild side. I LAUGH in the face of danger. HAHAHAHA!”
Love it. Love Simba :lovestruc

What a cute little turtle hiney! I also love Samantha Brown and her Disney shows. I love Disney popcorn and surprisingly the paper straws don't bother me. I love that Donald is on the naughty and nice lists! Such a cute detail!
 
OMG. That turtle butt lamp post (that's what that is right?) is the cutest thing I've ever seen! :lovestruc

That parade looks adorable, I'm kind of kicking myself now for skipping it when we were there. Although if we stayed for it I probably would have passed out since I was so sick. It just looks so cute and Christmasy, and I remember when Samantha Brown talked about Minnie's float smelling like hot chocolate! Sooo cute! :cool1:
 

You know what I just realized after reading your AK posts?! I REALLY LIKE AK! I feel like I always skip over everything there, but I do not know why!

I don't like parades in general (just the music from them :P) but that parade looks too cute! I know, it is kinda un-American not to like parades, sorry!

As for Dinosaur...I am the biggest baby! I wish that I could link you right to it, but if you look at our AK day on my TR from July, my sister posted our ride photo. I look terrified. No lie, I know how you feel. Fake dinosaurs are the worst kind of dinosaurs :rotfl:

Can't wait to see what you have in store for AK!
 
I love the AK parade. We had every intention of seeing the Holiday version when we went in November, but AK had EMH at 7 am that day and we were there at rope drop. We just couldn't hang until the parade. We have a dinner ressie at Yak and Yeti on our AK day so we are definitely seeing the parade.
 
I hate those straws too! They just taste so bad, I just can't drink out of those.But you do have a good point, it is safer for the animals!


Love the Jungle parade, so colorful!


Kadence and I are enjoying your videos, make us want to be there for Christmas!

Exactly! Oh my gosh, yes! And whenever someone would say 'the last dinosaur' I thought they were talking about the carnataurus where you get your picture taken! So I was MORE than prepared for that, but I was not expecting that last guy at all! He just POPPED UP out of nowhere! Goodness gracious! :eek:

Thanks! Hahaha I don't hate you for that! That's so awesome!

You stay classy, Claire Huxtable. :cool2:

Oh yes, definitely! I really enjoyed it this time. :thumbsup2

Love it. Love Simba :lovestruc

Me too. What a lion. Hahha isn't it adorable? I don't know why I was compelled to take a picture of his rear, rather than his face? Ah well, the heart wants what it wants, I suppose! :laughing: Samantha Brown is like one of my heroes, to be honest, she has the coolest jobs. Most recently she was at the Disney Aulani resort in Hawaii! You're lucky those straws don't bother you!

Hahaha, yep, that's what it is! I know right, isn't it the cutest? I love the details in that area.

Aw, yeah, it was probably best for yall to skip it. Poor thing. :( But one of these days you should see it (regular OR Christmas version) because it's just precious! Plus the music is really catchy. Yeah! That was a cool detail! Although I think they need to fix that a little bit for next time the holiday version rolls out, the smell wasn't all that strong!

AH! Well I'm glad that I could help you realize that! Animal Kingdom is seriously such a great park! Hahaha you do not have to apologize for not liking parades! It's really okay. :laughing: It is a cute one though, I must say!

Hahah! Oh my gosh, I'm glad you said that because I honestly have been meaning to check out your July TR! And I have no clue why I haven't! So as soon as I post this I'm gonna go subscribe and try to catch up! :thumbsup2 Hahaha darn those fake dinosaurs. I was doing pretty good until the very end though! :rotfl:

I love it too! Yeah, that's understandable for sure. Yeah yall should do that! And you probably could catch the holiday version on your Thanksgiving trip this year, too! :thumbsup2

Hahah yes! They're so disgusting! Yeah, that's pretty much the only reason that I do like them. Gotta love that environmentally friendly stuff! :laughing: But seriously, next time I might have to resort to NOT USING A STRAW. :eek:

It really is so cute and colorful! Love it!

Aww! Thanks! (Hi Kadence! :wave2:) Ya know, I would definitely recommend that yall go at Christmas sometime! It's really wonderful!
 
Hi there! I linked to your trip report from danimaroo's. Thanks for the warm welcome over there!

I'm just beginning your trip report so I am very far behind, but I wanted to tell you that I think it is totally awesome that you have a Titanic poster in your room. I'm proud to say I saw that movie 7 times when it came out originally, and I have the April 3-D release written on my calendar! I can't wait! I am also really loving the Friends references - that is by far my favorite show. :goodvibes

I love everyone's excited faces on your first day in the MK...I can feel the happiness through my computer screen! Walking into MK at the beginning of a trip is such a wonderful feeling!

Looking forward to catching up on the rest of the report!

Hey! Thanks so much for coming over here! And really it's no problem, I know how it is to feel awkward about posting at first! But no awkwardness here at all. :goodvibes

Thanks! Hahah I love that poster. Dang, seven times! Haha I saw it three times... but I was in third grade at the time haha. And YES! I cannot wait for that to come out in 3D! I'm not gonna lie though, seeing the commercials on TV even makes me CRY. Ugh, what a beautifully tragic movie. OH THANKS! YAY, another Friends fan! It's definitely my favorite show too! You have excellent taste, I must say! :laughing:

Aww, yeah, we were SO excited. It was a very happy time. Thank you for saying that! And thanks again for joining in, I'm so glad you're here! Please take all the time you need to catch up!
 
I am with you, the dinosaurs are totally scary. I've been on that ride over and over and over and still have a problem looking at that Carnotaurus. I mean, just because I know it's fake and I am in no danger doesn't mean I want something...ANYTHING... roaring in my face. Ever. That said, it's one of my favorites. LOL.

Ahhh! I love your parade pics! We saw the parade as well but that was the day my camera was broken so it's awesome to see yours!

Hahaha exactly. Good grief. And like why is the carnataurus like CONSTANTLY following the time rover around? It's the scariest one. Ugh. :rotfl:

Oh thank you! Aw that's sad. :( Well, if you want, feel free to use some for your photo albums or whatever!
 
Here is the fourth part of the Day 2 Video.

Day 2 Video, Part 4!

It's just a couple clips from the Jingle Jungle Parade. Fun stuff! :thumbsup2

Enjoy!

Continued in Next Post

One of our favorite parades! :donald:
We like it when we can find a spot where there is no viewing area across from us. That way, the characters are all looking our way as they go by, and it makes it easier for getting pictures. :thumbsup2
 
Holy flying foxes I am behind!! (Probably because I never have any idea how to find the last spot I commented so I'm stuck working backwards, page by page ctrl-f-ing my username and then 'RATS NOT HERE EITHER.' Is there a normal person way to do this??)

The carpets/Dumbo always look like fun but I never do them. I don't know why. It's like a big mental block right 'ride those fun rides' is supposed to be.

For some reason, having to even out the boat for Pirates makes me laugh. Like, yes, these are OBVIOUSLY DANGEROUS WATERCRAFT, safety precautions ahoy!!

Yay for the Castle show!! I love all the ~fancy dresses.

Animal Kingdom is the best place in the whole world. I don't care, there are tigers. You can make bad tiger puns!! WHERE ELSE CAN YOU DO THAT, HUH??

How rude of Minnie to not bring back Christmas cookies! Seriously, do not make Christmas cookie related excuses if there are no actual cookies to bring back with you. It's just mean.

Heh, I love easily offended Simba. Like he is actually just scandalized all the time about everything and it's this huge running joke on Pride Rock that Simba doesn't understand sarcasm.

Mmmm, Everest is the best. Especially the front row. And the queue. And the everything.

I love the paper straws! I always chew up the plastic ones and it's harder to do that with the paper ones. And I like the texture. Paper straws 4 life.
 
Dinosaur!!!! YES! I'm picturing myself in that spot right now and I'm totally freaking out!!! Oddly enough, I've been thinking about this ride because I was bored at work yesterday so I was surfing the news and learned about how the T-Rex's bite is now thought to be worse than what they originally thought. They're saying it's the worst predator we've ever had on land. Anyhoo, I'm really excited to go back and do this ride. Sadly, Animal Kingdom is the only park that we won't be spending time in for this upcoming trip.

The parade was cute, glad we did it. I love how Donald's on both lists!

I know where we're going next! Another one that I've learned to appreciate and can't wait to do again!

Haha I bet! That's a good idea. I can never get the characters to look at my camera hahah!

Hahaha hmm... well right now you are on page 29. Does that help? Hahha I have no clue!

For some reason, having to even out the boat for Pirates makes me laugh. Like, yes, these are OBVIOUSLY DANGEROUS WATERCRAFT, safety precautions ahoy!!

Oh you must! Seriously, you must. They're a simple kind of fun, but fun nonetheless!

Ha! I agree. It was a little funny... but I didn't mind, I was still in the front! Hahah that's what I care about, obviously...


Yay for the Castle show!! I love all the ~fancy dresses.

I love the ~fancy dresses too. I'm a fan of lots of ~fancy stuff, to be honest.

How rude of Minnie to not bring back Christmas cookies! Seriously, do not make Christmas cookie related excuses if there are no actual cookies to bring back with you. It's just mean.

There ARE tigers, so I've heard! I've NEVER been down the tiger trail, if you can believe it. BUT never fear, it is on my list for this summer. I can't even fathom why I haven't been down the tiger trail... I was a Tucker Tiger in high school. That's obviously important.

I know right? What the heck Minnie? Where are my cookies? She owes me cookies! :rotfl:


Heh, I love easily offended Simba. Like he is actually just scandalized all the time about everything and it's this huge running joke on Pride Rock that Simba doesn't understand sarcasm.

Mmmm, Everest is the best. Especially the front row. And the queue. And the everything.

I mean I guess I understand why Simba was a little paranoid... his uncle kinda killed his father and then tried to kill him, but instead ran him out of a town for a while... hahah but I mean he should be over that right? :confused3

I agree! Everest IS the best. I need to ride in the front!


I love the paper straws! I always chew up the plastic ones and it's harder to do that with the paper ones. And I like the texture. Paper straws 4 life.

Hahah that's too funny! I'm glad at least someone likes them!

Hahah that's... interesting! I guess it doesn't matter though now that they've gone kaput! WHAT you can't go there but you're going to the restaurant RIGHT outside of its gates? That's lame, darn school trips! I'm glad we did the parade too. Hahah yeah I LOVE it. :love: It cracks me up.
 
Great updates!

I love that you laughed in the face of danger and got to see the parade!

Looking forward to see what you had left to do at AK!

Coming up soon! Can't believe I haven't updated this thing in a week!
 
Just read your first post and just had to comment! All the DW references brought a couple of tears to my eyes:goodvibes! I went to the World for the first time when I was 32 :eek:, so I've unfortunately got you beat. We have a trip planned for December, so I'm getting my fix by reading TRs. Y'all look like such a fun group!! Ok, so I'm headed back to page 1popcorn::!
