Beckers 1,136 Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 What?Harold and the Purple Crayon?I am going to sue!That little creep stole my idea!J/KMrs. TCD is a pre-school teacher.I know Harold and his antics well.If you haven't read the book you ought to. And, if I'm not mistaken, there are many sequels. Spellbinding stuff.TCDWe will have to check it out. We average about 3 trips a week to the library. The boy used to have no interest in books but now has learned that books are a great stall tactic for bed. Little does he know i just start bedtime earlier so he still goes to bed the same time. Mom 1, Adam 0!There was also a book called Don't let the pigeon drive the bus! If I had awesome photoshop skills, I would have loved to doctor that puppy up and post here but sadly I don't photoshop.

Big Kahuna aka John 71 Posted July 4, 2013 Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 Apparently FWG and Bobby knew that TCD was coming that day and decided to prank him... Not nice... but funny... They probably had a garden hose running to get his pants so wet too... AC in A2......Aaron 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kampfirekim 260 Posted July 4, 2013 Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 Love the bonus features! Lots of good stuff can be found on Disc 2. ;D Way to get those obnoxious teens off the sidewalk. Nicely played, Oh Wet Butted One! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AC in A2......Aaron 693 Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 I agree Kim. B-sides were good on the old 45s too. Day-Tripper was a B-side. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted July 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 Wow - that is a boatload of progress since we were there at the end of May! And yes, it does seem like this attraction has been under construction for 2 years. Oh wait... they cleared the site for this in March 2011 so.... Oh yeah and clearly the rain was seeping into people's brains if they were actually waiting in line for Stitch. The progress of the Mine Train construction is an interesting thing. Each time we visit, we can see that a lot has been done. But, we can also see how much is still unfinished. I remember that Expedition Everest seemed to take forever to complete, but it wasn't sitting right in the middle of a park for everyone to see, so maybe this Mine Train just seems slower. No doubt that rain has a strange effect on guests. There was a time when people would just clear out, but that doesn't seem to happen any more. A lot of fails there for sure, but I'm always a fan of the People Mover. I was hoping since you were already wet you would just play in the Casey Jr. Splash Zone. oh well. You know, you're right, I should have played in the splash zone. When else would I have such a perfect opportunity. Fail. My youngest loved the people mover. We rode it before the Dessert party and then he wanted to ride it again that night before we left the park. It is his newest favorite ride. Good for him! The People Mover is awesome. I love bonus material!!! I think it's nice that you got to do something special with Twin #1. Each summer I take one day with each kid, solo, for a mom and me day and they love it. So do I. Now if only we could make it to Disney for those days... You're right, it is fun spending one on one time with Twin #1. More for me than for her. In all our years of going to MK, we got to see the "Rainy Day Parade" only once, thank goodness. But at least they try to put on something for guests who may have this one and only visit to MK. You're even with me now. I hope this was my first and last time seeing it. But, you're right- I do give them credit for doing something for the guests. We will have to check it out. We average about 3 trips a week to the library. The boy used to have no interest in books but now has learned that books are a great stall tactic for bed. Little does he know i just start bedtime earlier so he still goes to bed the same time. Mom 1, Adam 0!There was also a book called Don't let the pigeon drive the bus! If I had awesome photoshop skills, I would have loved to doctor that puppy up and post here but sadly I don't photoshop. Way to go, Mom! Reading before bed was a big thing in the TCD home. All of the TCD girls killed it in English class throughout school. Keep reading to Adam- it really does make a difference. I am not familiar with this pigeon who drives buses. Personally, it doesn't sound like a good idea. But, I will withhold judgment before I read the book. Hey TCD. Brent just posted these on Facebook. It finally made it! Thanks for sharing that, Jason. And thanks Brent for posting the photos. I wish I could have seen this in person! Bam Bam Bammity Bam! Agreed. Oh I predict an unhappy TCD.... Yes, I'm disappointed for sure. But, I am glad to know that the calliope finally made it back to the MK. I wish I could have seen it myself. But, I got to see the Rainy Day Cavalcade, and the blue wagon. So, it wasn't a total loss. Apparently FWG and Bobby knew that TCD was coming that day and decided to prank him... Not nice... but funny... They probably had a garden hose running to get his pants so wet too... Hey! You might be right! They got me good, too! TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

B-sides were good on the old 45s too. Day-Tripper was a B-side. I didn't know that. You should hit the game show circuit. The depth of your trivia knowledge is impressive. Calliope does not SMB. On this we agree. Very nice. What day were these photos taken? Were you there, Todd? Was it playing? I'd like to know that too. I really would like to hear the calliope play. LOOK!!!! Dave likes something!!!! Amazing. Very cool! Agreed. That's why I made the effort to go and sat through the rain on the day I went. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AC in A2......Aaron 693 Posted July 8, 2013 Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 This video looks like it could have been shot from close to where you were standing TCD; possibly on the same day? It didn't say anything about you getting a wet butt though so I am not sure: http://youtu.be/bLowtb2_Dh8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
