You've Got a Friend in Me:TINKGURL & XOKTENOX's Adventures in WDW~UPDATE: 6/9 p.74

[wdwgirl03]

What a great update! I love that sequence of Dumbo pictures. It really sums up your whole experience...you and your sis on together, DF and LG together (the pic of your fiance showing the little guy how to work Dumbo is too cute), your uncle and cousin together (which that picture is also hilarious ), and then all the during ride pictures. Awesome!

Oh my gosh. Those pictures of the Little Guy with Buzz made me tear up. How adorable! It's moments like that one that make Disney so magical. And he's right, hugging Buzz IS totally awkward. He's just so hard. And round. Hugging him feels really weird.

 

[LilAnn]

Oh my gosh! Totally love both the Buzz pictures and the Chip & Dale pictures, not sure which one I like more. He just looks so happy to be there! Priceless memories. I need to ride Dumbo one of these trips - can you believe I still have yet to ride it? I can't wait to go on it with my little girl one of these days (once she's over her fear of rides in general)

 

[michael's mom]

Great update! I love those pics of little guy with Buzz! I'm definitely going to have to be on the lookout for him in April. DS is obsessed!

Oh, and I don't think I've mentioned this yet....I LOVE YOUR BAG! I want one!

 

[tinkgurl]

HI Tink! I just got back from our amazing trip, and am just popping in to see what i've missed!! Great to be back reading your lovely report!!

Liesa! I cannot believe you are home already from your trip! I can't wait to read all about it!! Let me know when you start a TR.

This will be a good picture to look at in the future when Fantasyland is finished, since you can see all the way back to Toontown in the background. It will look very different on the left-hand side, I bet. Plus, it's cool that you can see Space Mountain and BLT back there, too.

This picture is absolutely precious! It brought tears to my eyes.

I can't wait to see Fantasyland all finished! I'm so antsy!

It is cool you can see Space and BLT!

Aw thanks MeMom. I like it too!

Aww, more great character pics!! I bet Buzz thought the little guy was fantastic for saying "To infinity and beyond!" So adorable!!

I hope Buzz liked it!

When are yall going back again?

HOPEFULLY SOON! Little Guy keeps asking me when.

Thanks girl! Glad you liked them!

Aw thanks. It's amazing how different WDW was with a little one. It will never be the same for me. I loved it.

Thanks girl! I know it's hard to pic a favorite!

I hope your DD will make it on Dumbo. She'll like it. Even if she doesn't want to go way up high.

Oh, and I don't think I've mentioned this yet....I LOVE YOUR BAG! I want one!

Thanks! Yes, Buzz is usually over by the Cop!

Thanks! They do sell them at WDW..just lots of $!

Tink and Kristen- I can't believe you guys forgot to have one of the guys take a "first time meeting" in action pic! hehe I was definitely waiting for it..hehe But thats soo great you finally got to meet-- its like a long awaited picture we had all been waiting for seeing you guys together. I love the Dumbo ride- its so simple but has amazing views!

Its seems that little guy is having an amazing time! He's a cutie!

I can't wait to hear what you girls.. and the guys too I suppose.. will be doing at night together!

 

[princess_momma]

YAY!! You guys finally met and were VIPs together!! How fun!! You guys just all looked so happy!! I love it!! You did look so tiny in that picture with Chris and DF!! That's how I felt the WHOLE time because I am 5'3" and Dustin and Steph are over 6 feet! Clearly, I need to hang out with you and Lauren more if I don't want to feel so short!! Kristen, how tall are you?

Aw, Tink...your little guy and my little guy would get along so great!! The Buzz pics, as you could probably guess, made me tear up!! SO CUTE!! Landon always runs around with his Buzz shouting, "AND BEYOND!!!" (He usually doesn't say the infinity part lol) And he does the same little pose as your little guy!! Too sweet.

 

[All7OfUs]

Tink!! I started!! It's in the TR threads: The ABC's of Touring...

 

[Sunset Cliffs]

I'm so happy for you both that you finally met. What a crazy story the two of you will have when you are old and still friends. It will start like this, "Back when the internet was cool, we met on this awesome website." The only person I have met from the Dis so far is Jordan. I was SO excited to meet him, and all we did was have lunch together. It was an amazing experience. Getting to have a whole trip together is pretty special. And the VIP section sounds so fun!

I think my favorite picture is Little Guy hugging Chip & Dale. It's great that he was not afraid to approach the characters. You can see the love that he has for them. So sweet.

I know! We forgot to tell Chris and Fiance to be ready with the cameras! Darn it.

Thanks girl. He was having a blast!

Yes...I always feel so short around everyone!

Aw..I can picture Landon doing that. Cute. I'm glad you liked the pics. I loved sharing them.

Okay, I will get there!

You're right, it will be a great story for when we're older! That's so cool you got to meet Jordan!

You know I was worried about if he was going to be scared or not, but as you can tell, he did great! I love that pic of him hugging them too. The smile on his face is so cute.

It was soo exciting to meet and get to be VIPs together. I totally noticed how tall your friends are in all your pics lol I'm 5'5", pretty average for a girl but I felt like a giant next to Tink haha. I would have thought you were taller, maybe because it seems like you have long legs?

Tink!! I started!! It's in the TR threads: The ABC's of Touring...

I went over there and joined in too Liesa, and then forgot to subscribe lol I have to go find it again.

It's so fun meeting DISers, even more so for when Tink and I met since we are so close. But all the ones I have met so far it was like talking to old friends, not people I was meeting in person for the first time.

I think we (me, Kimmy & yall... Tink & Kristen) should all try and plan our trips around each other next summer!

 

[__disneygirl]

AWW! The pics of the Little Guy on your fiance's shoulders and showing him how to work Dumbo just made my heart melt!!

Wow, how weird to see that kind of construction going on!! I still am not thrilled with them changing all of that but I'm sure when it opens I will be in love with it just like nearly everything else at Disney World.

I love the futuristic Chip & Dale costumes! Never seen that before. I love when the characters are wearing something different than usual.

Sounds like Chip, Dale, and Buzz all gave Little Guy extra attention. I love when they do that! But how could they not with how adorable Little Guy is!!!

Can't wait for more especially the luau!! ;D

 

[Poolrat]

I have flown in to McArthur once many years ago. Even growing up on LI somehow we always went ot LGA or JFK to fly out.

You grew up on LI?! How did I not know?? I'm always seeking out other Long Islanders (or former LIers) Where on LI did you live?

Hey disneygirlfriend!

I'm glad you liked the pics.

It was really weird seeing all that construction. I'm just so antsy to see what it looks like all done!

I loved how Chip and Dale were all in costume for Tomorrowland!

Aw thanks...he had a blast meeting them!

Luau update will be coming sometime this week!
