Thank you. I'm glad everyone enjoyed the report.

Thank you....

Earlier this year, Tinker Bell and her fairy friends moved to Epcot to meet and greet guests as part of the Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival. she will be moving to Magic Kingdom Park to a new location inside the Adventureland Veranda. While the Veranda is being prepared for their July 28 arrival, Tinker Bell and her fairy friends will continue to meet and greet guests at Epcot through July 27, near MouseGear in Future World.

July 18-31, Magic Kingdom Park will be running two performances of the Celebrate a Dream Come True parade daily, at noon and 3:30 p.m. During that period, show times for the Move it, Shake it, Celebrate it! Street Party will be moved to 10 a.m., 5:30 p.m. and 7 p.m. Magic Kingdom Park will return to a single afternoon (3 p.m.) parade on August 1.

Tangled played on the 3rd. The new movie list is very hard to read and distingush what is playing when, but the two different movies listed on the same day is odd.

Do you notice anything odd about these scans??? Check out the movie for the 3rd of July. One says cars, the other Tangled. The 2nd lists 2 different movies as well. Cant wait to read more.

I believe it was the full version.?.? Its the same one we have always seen, so I wouldnt know the difference either way. Thank you for reading Sorry, Florida is a welcoming state though and there is plenty of room for everyone. Sadley so, but we are planning another trip soon. Thanks for reading Im glad my pics helped someone. You really must see the show live to appreciate it though. 1. It is Florida, if you wait 30 mins, it ussualy is over. Just my luck this was one of the freak rains that wouldnt quit. 2. I almost missed the orange vintage one, the morning I took the photo, they were

All righty then Its 6 Jul 2011 and we are headed to EPCOT. Nothing spectacular, but I do have some photos to share After crusing around the world, we take the boat to DHS. Rode ST (still missing Hoth scene) and TSM before heading to Fantasmic. 7 Jul 2011 We get up to go find a new lock for the camper. ThBob suggested a store not far from the Fort, Camping Connection. If anyone else doesnt know, Camping World near the Fort NEVER has anything in stock. And this lock, a common item, was no exception. So we trek out to find this store. Sure enough, it was right where he

Still 4 Jul 2011, After the fireworks, we head to the TTC for a ride back. I decided that taking the ferry to the MK then a boat to FW would be much faster than waiting on the monorail. So, we get to TTC just as the ferry pulls up and we are the only ones on it. The lines leaving MK were horrendous, but just as I thought, no one was going to MK this late. When we arrive at MK, we head over to the FW boat launch and are the only ones waiting on that boat, which pulls up a few mins later. I love it when a plan comes together. When we get back to the site, Jen pulls up and lets me know we had won

I like the fact that they use these during the special fireworks. Thanks Actually, during the special fireworks (4th of July, New Years, etc) they use the barges for the EWP as part of the show. They park them directly in front of the poly and use the speakers to play the soundtrack and then the lights during certain parts of the show. They even launch some fireworks from the barges too. If you have never seen them from the Poly before, I urge you to at least once. A whole different experience. Thank you, there are still more to come. I really didnt want to break a window, so Im glad I tho

No commentary needed, enjoy....

Still 4 Jul 2011 After the GC parade, keylime's DD came over to visit with the kids. In an attempt to get them out of the house, we convinced them to play capture the flag at the pool. The pool did not seem that busy for 1300 on a holiday Normally it would be so packed you couldnt even see the water in there. Good on Fort management for working this issue. Back behind the bus stop there is the camp of the infamous TCD. After the game, which was very unorganized, we took the kids back to the camper and headed out to loop a bit. While there, I noticed something I have not noticed before No

I wouldnt want you to be deprived of the great parade. Just make sure you see the next one live. I did not see any green ears either. But then again, that could be because the two members of that board were not at the Fort this weekend. There were plenty of snarkies around, but not many on the GCs. No formal Disney statement as to disallowing these signs and I hope they never do. There are more comming, stay tuned. See above.... Thank you for the answer.

Stay tuned, there is more to come......

Yep, more GCs This is the end of the parade, but apparently, this CM didnt get the memo that this would be going on today. He felt entitled to drive past everyone else to beat the traffic. How do I know he was a CM? He was in costume and had a name tag on. The popo were all over him though and made him get back in line like everyone else. They were not kind words either. Remember a few posts back we saw the flag dude? Well, he was here as well. So the kids just had to have thier picture with him. Turns out he is just a patriotic kid who wanted to show it off. I am not sure who won

Still at the GC parade.... I think we are almost there....one more page.

This parade is like the energizer bunny, it keeps going and going and going Can anyone guess the next installment? If you guessed GC parade, youre correct.....

Day 5, 4 Jul 2011 We wake early to catch the GC parade. Ive always enjoyed these as some people put in allot of effort into thier decorations. But the past few have not been spectacular. Not many GCs participated. This one was different. There were hundreds. They also changed the route. It headed straight from the hitch/unhitch area to pioneer hall. I almost missed it because I was set up with the cart just outside of the 400 loop, where we always watch it. Luckily my junior TCD senses kicked in and I noticed somethings were just odd. So asked a ranger and sure enough, the route was different.

Wow, I take a nap and this report has run rampent. To save Lou's dignity, I will not comment on the last few posts. Now, where were we? Oh yeh, still 3 Jul 2011, we are at the beach for the fireworks. Fireworks do not require allot of comments, so I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. I will say that I thought 9pm was too early to start the fireworks. It was still a little too light out to fully enjoy the show. Another note was the soundtrack. It was too low to hear and add on the thousands of people talking during the show, you could barely make any of it out. The night before we watch

Im uploading the next batch now. Hang tight, theyre comming I dont think there are any with your mouth closed... :rofl2: :rofl2:

Thank you I think its too late for that.... Thanks No problem. I enjoy sharing the Fort with the fiends Im ussualy taking the pics so there arent many of me running around. I did appear in another TR though. Some fiend managed to capture a candid photo of me. :popo: As for the Mrs, she doesnt like her pic taken either, so not many of her. But I still have 300 some photos to go, so we never know.

Am I that predictable? There is still more to come, thanks for reading. :popcorn: There are still more pics to come, keep reading along. Ive been known to take a few pics here and there. I slacked off on this trip though, only managed 780. Thanks

Still 3 Jul 2011, Time for the GG of fiends. I wont bog this down with too much commentary, and if I get a name wrong or forget someone, I apoligize now. Im horrible with names and am old, so my memory is weak. Now, on with the photos.... MMMMMMMMM.....we will call her Melissa and my DDs TnBob cuting the ham, which is much better than cutting the cheese and Hurston Hurston and KamfireKim AuburnJen and Keylime and Keylime's DD TnBob, KampfireKim, Hurston, Magicbus Peach Cobbler You can decide who is in this one The mayor himself, well, a picture of him This ones for the ladies Aft

Day 4, 3 Jul 2011 Another morning of looping. I find this display put up by some confused individuals in the 1900 loop Not sure if they forgot which season it was. I know the weather rarely changes here in Florida, but they must have known it wasnt christmas. Off to the marina, where I found this Obviously the Forts traffic control didnt work too well. Had TCD tried to take his GC into a restricted area again? The walkway to the 100 loop seemed to fair better A few beach pics The sand is ussualy nicely raked by this time of morning, but it is obvious the guy who rakes it is on vacatio

Now onto the good stuff. Day 3, 2 Jul 2011. Finally a sunny day. DW had to work, so I was free to loop. First, our site, 423 I cant remember where this was, 300 or 500, but this was an ingenious way to camp. It seems these folks convrted an old U haul into a camping vessel I headed to the canal behind 300. I kow this is a nice place to relax and unwind, but while there, there was a guy sitting on a GC next to the canal, line in the water, and a laptop compter on the seat next to him. I felt weird taking a picture of him because he kept watching me while I was walking around. Bt it was a
