Yes.   TCD

Now we can make fun of you for not finishing your TR quickly enough.  With the snow storm we are expecting here in the South the next few days, I will be very bored and hoping for many updates each da

I like P+F in their Christmas hats! And I love good character interaction.    Was there any Glow with the Show action at Fantasmic? 

That's great you guys were able to escort the chipmunks in! It must be fun to watch a movie with a bunch of Disney loving people. Hmm, I wonder where else that can be done? Oh wait, I know! Gettysburg!

That magic band mess up would be annoying, good for you for standing your ground and not getting screwed out of Soarin'

Oh and MWB, that's epic, as long as FWG isn't naked on it!

 

I don't want to see FWG naked either.  Good call.

Or anyone for that matter. 

 

Probably best to leave that part out.

 

Great updates!

 

Thanks Gwen.  Glad you're enjoying them.

Nah....a bottle of Roundup would suffice. 

 

Duly noted.  MWB would be more fun though.

Ouch!

 

I here ya.

 

I will try to make up for the lack of updates tomorrow.  I was however procuring a couple things the last couple days and scheming ways to add to my Eat Your Heart Out Marty McFly, Trip Back in Time TR.

 

So I should have more to add to that one when this TR is complete.

There is the link in case you never read it.  There will be a bunch of bonus content to add soon.  Stay Tuned for that and I will be back to this TR tomorrow.

 

Peace.

This is very exciting news!

 

I can't wait to see what you dug up.

12-8-13 (continued):

 

As I wrote in my response above, I have been working on something else for my Back in Time TR. 

 

That will be coming shortly after I complete this TR, so lets get this one back up and running again.

'

If you recall, we are at Epcot and getting ready to use our last FP+.

 

Our last FP+ reservation was to meet up with old friends:

Moving on....

 

Oh crap.

 

The MSB Cinnamon Roll killers:

A couple quick pics to placate the parental units before heading to see another character:

We're off to see the Duff-Meister:

IMG_6123_zpsffec09be.jpg

 

And here he is in all his Christmasy glory,

 

I give you...

 

The DuffMeister:

 

IMG_6124_zps9f8f57a4.jpg

 

You'll notice I spelled his name differently the the last two times i mentioned him.

 

That is because The 'DuffMeister has such a huge cult following that the duff'meister needs different spelling varieties like Clementine Beach, Meadow Trading Post, and 'Ohana.

 

The Duff Meister' is here to stay.

We headed south of the border and grabbed an ice cream on the way:

 

IMG_6130_zpsdf0237b3.jpg

 

For further proof that the D'u'f'f' Meister is here to stay, the younglings had to stop inside Mexico and color a DuFfMeIsTeR:

 

IMG_6131_zpsd5c2e4ce.jpg

 

Then is was on to the Three Cabbie boat ride:

We sat behind one of TCD's friends in our boat:

IMG_6137_zps7f688cf4.jpg

 

We will now leave Mexico and head for the land of the freezing summer tundra.

 

You're probably asking if we are going to Norway.

 

"Yeah, why?"

 

Are we going to the church thingy to see Frozen stuff?

 

"Yeah, why?"

 

Are we going to get to Germany at some point to buy karamel goodness?

 

"Yeah, why?"

Because I left you hanging yesterday, we will jump right in with more:

 

Here we are at the Norway church thingy:

Are we going to get some stinking karamels or what?

 

"Yeah, why?"

 

Anyway.

 

We had to make another requisite stop for the younglings before heading to Germany:

We passed Dave's girl on the way:

After the Karamel shoppe we headed for the exit and traversed back to the Fort.

 

We chilled in the PUP for awhile watching the Lions get their collective arse handed to them in snowy Philly:

The Lions put DD to sleep:

We lounged around for until evening and then went Monorail Looping to see Christmas decorations.  So we hopped the boat to the Contemporary:

Excellent updates!

 

I don't think we made it by the Contemporary this year to see the gingerbread house there.

 

Never knew about the five legged goat Krispy Treats.  I would have purchased one of those just because of the name.

 

A fashion craze you say?  Please don't let it be women not from this land in those tight pants. Ay Dios Mio!

So much to comment on in those last updates. 

 

Nice use of apostrophes....an a'postro'phe catas'tro'phe, you might say. 

 

iPad stoopidity....how rude to block your view of the Caballeros.  It's not everyday that you get to see Caballeros, afterall. 

 

My girlfriend should just choke on a caramel and be done with it. 

 

I'm scared of the fashion trend.

I'm very pro D'u'ff'y. Yes, he is another thing that drains my bank account but he is so dang cute!!

Would have been ashame if you had an arm spasm and knocked into the iPad holders arm causing it to fall in the water....

 

Ooh. I should have thought of the old arm spasm excuse.  Next time!

I thought about the Five-Legged Treat but for some reason did not pull the trigger. 

 

I don't believe the fashion trend was developed by people not of this land....but you never know.

iPad lady was a bit annoying.  I think I may try the coughing all over with no hand over my mouth technique next time.

 

Don't be scared.  It's more of a WTF than a brain bleach type thing.

 

Wonderful update!  I haen't been to the Contemporary to see the Gingerbread since 1989.  Which reminds me.. I need to dig into KFM's treasure trove for a photo of the gingerbread Castle.  

Thanks Kim.

 

I would love to see pics from your treasure trove.

One more quick update for today.

We left you yearning to find out the newest Disney fashion craze.

Well apparently it will be a craze if Disney gets its way.

Here the fashion craze is in all of its glory from the Fantasia gift shop in the CR:

IMG_6180_zpsa070fbd9.jpg

To this point in our trip, this was the only place I had seen these t-shirts.

I didn't see one person wearing one.

And sorry if any of you liked them, but $30 to let everyone know you really like your magic band is a bit drastic to me.

So you can decorate your magic band and then spend $30 for a t-shirt to let everyone know the decorations aren't just part of your secret agent cover story......you actually do LOVE your magic band.

You could buy a few MSB cinnamon rolls for $30.

We just have to overthrow the evil cartel first.

A few more gift shop pics from the other shop:

Oh brother.  MB are not fashion.  I don't even care to wear them. I'd rather have a turkey leg T shirt than a magic band one.

 

Other than that... Great update.

 

I agree on the fashion. How lame.

 

Magic Band tshirts?  I don't even know what to say.  

 

I'd prefer this one.

 

s.gifCinnamonRolls_1024x1024.jpg

That's a good look. Its not a MSB cinnamon roll but i guess it will suffice.

  

A garment worthy of the carb thread...  :worship:

I think I'll stick to eating cinnamon rolls instead of wearing them but it is better than MB shirts.

Cue the crickets.....

I think the new fiend challenge should be finding someone wearing a MB shirt!

I agree. Who would actually wear one? They're stupid. Really lame. I don't believe people would pay $30 for that. I want to see proof.

The GF really knows how to decorate for the holidays. Beautiful.
