  1. OK. That was a first. KFK, I have hopefully fixed the picture problem. I do not understand what happened. It must have been a glitch somewhere. Maybe Turbo is trying to take over my trip report.
  2. It is now Tuesday morning and we head for DHS. Upon entering the park, I made a dash for Fast Passes for Toy Story. After obtaining those, we milled around and decided to go to Star Tours. On the way over, we found the signup line for the Jedi training. Got dear son signed up for that and dear daughter was disappointed. She was too old. We went through the Star Tours, no one from our family was selected as the Rebel Spy...boooo. From there we went to our Fast Passes for Toy Story. It was fun like always. At the end of the ride, when they show the scores for the car, mine was the highest (not b
  3. Here are a couple of pictures from story time with Belle. And here are what ceiling pics I have.
  4. Six bits will make another appearance later in this TR but not as the mayor of Main Street, but as another character. The waiter told us there is a set of ears in the clouds with a bow between them. I could never find it. Shardi claims to have found it. Maybe she can break out the crayons and point it out to us.
  5. It is Monday morning and we head back over to the Magic Kingdom. First stop is some more SoM cards. Then we had a run in with this odd Character. Seems like I have seen him before but I just can't place it. Maybe if I hoop and Holler, or Review some pictures I might remember. This day starts the mission of doing the grand slam for roller coasters for our dear son. He has finally made it tall enough to ride all of the roller coasters at Disney World. We started out with Big Thunder Mountain Rail Road. We rode it twice back to back. Dear son's response after the first ride:"Megally Awesome!" I
  6. When I left off, we were splitting up. Me and the kids hopped the Monorail to head to EPCOT. As we left the Contemporary, this is the sight looking back toward the Fort. Like everyone else, I hate it. It is very obtrusive. Upon arrival to EPCOT, we made our way to Test Track. This was our first time going through TT since the refurb. It was nice. Here are the cars we designed. Mine Dear Daughter’s Dear Son’s Upon exiting the ride, we were trying to compare our results but Shardi had made to EPCOT after walking the dogs back at the Fort and was getting annoyed that I was not answering the p
  7. It has been noted that my wife was correct. You would have been responded to much quicker had she given you the correct phone number to text me with. I am also invoking the MPR about bedazzle!
  8. I agree that they were skimping on the BACON. Shardi also told the waiter she wanted a pot of Kona coffee but only got a pot of standard coffee. Saved me several dollars and the waiter lost out on the increased tip. His loss, my gain.
  9. Red velvet. And DD ate all of them.
  10. I'm in. Sorry I missed an opportunity to say Hi.
  11. Sunday morning we have reservations at Kona at the Polly. We are at the dock at 7:30am waiting on a launch to get to the Contemporary to catch a monorail to the polly. I tell Shardi, we need to drive because there is no way we will make our 8 am reservation. She insist we will, so we wait. A launch comes around Discovery Island from the Contemporary direction. Me thinking I know more than she does makes a statement that this launch was going to the Lodge and we will be late. Well, the captain pulls up and announces that he is in fact headed to the Contemporary. So on the launch we go. We pull
  12. No Point. Required Dog pics posted. Me too. I did have a plan in place, but it could have still resulted in the hassle and a fine. Please see above response. I always try to use all available resources when making a trip. A lesson I learned the hard way from a trip to Boston, MA where I wound up on the Harvard University campus with a truck load of hazardous material and had no idea where I was nor how to get out of where I was. Bought a city map at a Walgreen's. Made it out an swore I would never go in blind again. Today's technology helps in so may ways.
  13. OK. I need to back up and post a few more pictures to appease the masses(dog lovers). Here we are entering Disney property. Here is the Fort Sign....Everyone loves this sign, me Included. Here we have the guard. Doesn't look like the type of person to go so gaga over a couple dogs. Two said dogs attacking a CM with licks. Here the CM is digging for more treats. Here was dear son being part of the street performance. Here is dear daughter with her performance. Thanks to all who are following along. I am sure that you are all interested in how dual trip reports from one family will turn o
  14. In on page 1. For all missing pictures for my trip report, please refer back to this trip report.
  15. OK. Here goes. My first ever attempt at a trip report. please forgive me now because I know I will bounce around a little. SO...... Here We GOOOOO.... We started out on the 8th of February with a scheduled departure time of 3:00 PM. I took the whole day off from work with the intentions of getting everything loaded and hooked up for the trip. Well, that went all wrong as I had to go see the Eye DR. for a contact inspection on new contacts at 9:00 AM. Leave the Dr’s office and Shardi calls, “I need you to pick up a list of things from town.” Another couple of hours shot. This trip would be a c
  16. You are correct that the prices are Higher than Tink Flying from the top of the Castle! We like to go to the Winn-Dixie at 11957 S Apopka Vineland Rd, Orlando, FL, just a short 5-10 minute drive.
  17. My Bad. I am the worst at spelling names correctly.
  18. No CDL required. It is registered as an RV Private truck.
  19. OK, enough hijack......... Back to the original topic, You could make the trip in an easy 2 and a half days. First day make it Baton Rouge. Next day make it to Madison, FL. and final day make it to the Fort before lunch. That is 8 hours the first two days.
  20. Here is what it looks like loaded up and headed to the Fort.
