CKCK

Thanks a lot! I'm glad you liked them! Every time I look at those pics I can't help but smile!

I had good subjects I may or may not have teared up as well. I plead the fifth. You see what WDW has done to me??? Yes! The PotC dog! Of course! Guess he got tired of taunting the jailbirds. Best idea ever to move to the Fort for Thanksgiving. We'll win our family over yet! We thought they might have been different. According to my wife's research (and she reads about food all the time), apparently Gaston's have maple flavoring in them, while the bakery's did not. Don't know if that's true or not. Yes, DD2 definitely relates to Merida more than the other princesses! Honestly, I d

I'm waiting to get my reservations for Bibbidy Bobbidy BACON

Woo hoo to that. I'm not going to comment on Dave's drunk update that followed. That's the only explanation for that.

If you read that quickly, you might think it says "magic behind Lou's butt tour." That would be awkward.

Day 6: THANKSGIVING This is the day we were here for. Thanksgiving. Turkey Day. Day of Turkeys. We wanted to hit the MK Thanksgiving morning. Why? Because how cool is that? So off to ropedrop we went. We had this great plan worked out. We would hit the Mainstreet Bakery (one more time before they closed it for awhile), and grab a cinnamon roll. Then we would go back to Gaston’s and get a chocolate croissant thingy and a frozen fruity foamy drink, then sit in the tavern and have breakfast. We had to hurry, because we wanted to beat the crowds back there. Great plan, right? For some reason I d

I knew I could count on you. Belle is my girl. It drives me crazy to see how she has slowed down. Though, she hasn't lost any of her spunk or meanness to her "sister" Roxy. She definitely takes out her hearding instincts on her. That's my favorite pic of Belle ever. I have it hanging in my office. Thanks! I can't go a trip without a GAG. Won't happen. And no, I could not ask for anything else!

Totally missed that one. Now I have some reading to do.

So, this is like a beer TR? I'm in.

We have never been through Dumbo when it was crowded enough to use the queue. They have given us the option of using it, and we move through quickly enough to not give our girls a chance to want to do it. I think it's a good idea, but I too don't like the idea of my girls being trampled by a bunch of older kids who don't really belong there or don't know how to watch out for younger kids. Personally, if I see a situation where my 2 and 4 year old girls are going to be pushed around, we move on. Once they're old enough to hold their own I would be fine with it.

He's too embarrassed after showing those pics of him dancing...

Isn't every Fort day awesome? Thanks, and we're always looking to add more Red and Black! I really wish I would have gotten a pic of him. Thanks for reading! I haven't tried the carrot cake cookies yet. Though it is on our list to hit Starring Rolls. We always mean to go there, but for some reason we never do. Weird. Yeah, I'm pretty lucky, aren't I? And I didn't even include a pic of Roxy. Of course, the only pic I have of her is not flattering. You'll see it soon.

I would just like to point out, that, while I may have been called tacky on my last trip, I was not the tacky rope person. Must have been TCD and his hammock... IMHO

Day 4: Tuesday Okay, maybe now that Stef and TCD have finished, you all will have time to read my TR. Or not. I don’t really care. Either way I’m still writing it. So if you are anti-CKCK, stick it in your ear. For those of you who are pro-CKCK, sorry for the absence. I had to go to a conference in Savannah. Sometimes it’s a rough life. Day 4 was a Fort day. I have a whopping FOUR pictures from this day. I’m not sure what that’s all about. I guess we were just too busy relaxing with our friends. This was their last day and we wanted them to get the Fort experience. So we did Fort thi

I think what you're all trying to say is that we're dumb. I can read between the lines. I had never heard of her either before my friend was lusting over her. Wonder how long they leave posters up for artists like that? Renegade sub? Must have missed that one.

We may disagree on waffle sandwiches, but we are kindred spirits on Country Bear Jamboree. I think it's ridiculous. The last time we rode it was before they "refurbished" it. That time the sound was all screwed up. You couldn't understand what anyone was saying, and the music didn't line up with the "acting." Of course, I'm sure it's way better now...

Actually, a good friend of mine is Hawaiian and because of that I know that it is actually spelled... okay, I don't give a crap. I just want to eat there. I'll spell it whatever I have to get to eat the food. And yes, I am so working that into the negotiations of HTT.

I have no productive comments. However, I would like to jump on TCD's comment about the waffle sandwiches. Apparently they have started shorting everyone on all of those sandwiches. My last chicken was tiny compared to one I had a few months earlier. And I feel the need to defend the chicken waffle. IT ROCKS. So there. Nanana boo boo.

Totally jealous of Ohana. It is on our short list of places we need to try!

Thanks for sharing. Enjoyed your TR. Except when it ended. That part sucked.

Day 3: Monday I don’t have many pictures from this day, so we’ll knock this entire day out in one post. I have to admit something. I didn’t take as many pictures on this trip as I should have. I was lazy. I just started five sentences in a row with “I.” That’s tacky. Mr. Flag shirt should come yell at me for being tacky I guess. Since our friends only got two day park tickets, we had to make today count. That meant hitting three parks in one day. This is highly unusual for us. We are not team TCD. We are team CKCK. Team CKCK likes to rest on vacations. Regardless, off we went to 7:00am rop

I'm sure that will come WAAAYYY too fast! Not to throw him under the bus, but the pictures make Felix much more smooth than he actually was. In fact, he was pretty successful in getting in trouble a good amount during the trip! Check out DaveInTn's TR. There was some discussion about it. The exit is just behind the Ice Cream Parlor. They generally have CM's directing the way behind Mainstreet. It comes out by Tony's. Absolutely!!! Glad you understand!!! I wish I could have gotten a pic of him! Agreed. I'm a high school teacher, so I definitely enjoy getting away from aggravation! De

Still Day 2 in the MK: What better way to start this new installment than with a pic of my girls?!? Bam! That’s what I’m talking about! We were over in Tomorrowland area and saw the crowd around the talking trash can: This may have been the easiest time I’ve ever had spotting the guy with the mic. He wasn’t very stealthy. We next hit Buzz. For awhile now I’ve been trying to figure out how to get the big points. Often my wife will blow up with 200,000 or 300,000, but she never knows how. I finally figured out where the big points are: It’s hard to read, but that says 572,900. Bam! Now tha

That's me!!!

Thanks...thanks! I have to admit something. They're the main reason I write TR's...to show them off! Yes, it definitely got better! Welcome! I have a feeling next year relatives will come. After they heard how a great time we had (and how poor of a time they had with other relatives), I think they are making plans to join us! Team CKCK wins!
