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? 

Wow.

That pretty much mirrors an experience that we had a Space Mountain. The CM's at the scanners are not happy campers, and apparently it isn't in their job descriptions to troubleshoot.  They just send guests away to hunt for other CM's with iPads. Unfortunately, I guess this is the best we can expect until all the bugs get worked out during this very long testing period.

 

Wow again.

Impressive.

Well done.

TCD

Thanks TCD.

I aim to please.

  

Caught up and to much to comment on.

Great pix. You have a beautiful family.

One favor please. No more pix of women wearing painted on pants, please!

Pm them to TCD. Lol

  

Lets not pretend that you didnt like that pic Ray.

"Magic Band"....one of the more ironically named products in US corporate history.

  

I know, Right?

I think it's funny that we think of TCD every time we see a woman in scary tight pants.

 

Can't wait to see your son use the Force.

It is funny. The video is fixed now.

After Jedi Training, we headed back to TSM to use our paper FPs:

It has become a sort of AC clan tradition to get ice cream after Jedi Training.  Here is DD finishing hers as we arrive at TSM:

No issues getting through the CM gauntlet when you have these blurry things:

Let's see how DW and DD are doing on the opposite side of our ride vehicle:

After TSM, we went to the Great Movie Ride.  We had never been to this ride with DD and DS before:

A pic for KFK:

Sidenote:  We go to the local library every couple weeks and the kids love it.  We checked out Mary Poppins for DD on our last visit and she just loves the movie.  She doesn't call it Mary Poppins though.  She calls it "Spoonful of Sugar."  She said the other day, "I wish I could have "Spoonful of Sugar" for a present someday daddy.

 

Back to the trip:

Continuing on the Great Movie Ride, we will follow the yellow brick road:

Before we left the park, I had one other thing that I wanted DD to experience:

IMG_6520_zps3a06a9b6.jpg

 

DD then used one of her gift cards to purchase a Cinderella music box:

Here she is on the bus ride back to the Fort:

DS and DD received more transportation cards from the bus driver:

We hung out at the PUP for a few hours when we got back and then headed out for nighttime Fort festivities.

More great pics!

 

Thanks Gwen......remember Iphone only except for a couple of the videos.  I am happy with them considering i only used the phone.

I like your daughter's name for Mary Poppins. Much more creative!

 

I also love the picture of her "paying."

 

Thanks Kelly.  I actually mis-pronounced it.  It's really "Spoon fulla Sugah".  She also thought it would be cool if the Easter Bunny put "Spoon fulla Suga" in her Eastah Basket.  I think she is Wicked Awesome and is possibly from Bawston in a previous life.

 

I had no idea they had a Sofia meet now.  Nobody better tell Anna or it will cost me a lot of money. 

 

Hey Anna!!!!

 

hmmmmmmmm, I will see Anna in a week and a half........

 

Yes!!

And now I have to keep Anna away from Carol.  Hmmm, will the threat of no Anna hugs make Carol keep her mouth shut about Sofia?  :rofl3:

 

That's playing dirty.

 

Yes, that's all it will take :)!!!!!

 

Just wait until the very end of your visit.  Show them the pics from here if you like.

Before I get to a new update later today, we have to go back for a video from 12-6-13.  This is our arrival night.

 

We actually went looping and dropping off cookies to fiends between our Meadows ice cream run and going back to the PUP.

 

Here is one of our stops:

I need to get this thing done quick.  I haven't seen TCD on for a couple days.  That can usually mean only one thing.....a new trip report is coming?

 

I don't want to lose my vast readership in one fell swoop!  :rofl2:

 

Anyway, we have left DHS and are now back at the Fort where we will partake in some nighttime Forting around.

 

We packed some food and went to the Meadows pool to eat:

We didn't stay long because we had somewhere important to be:

We stayed to watch Scott Calvin:

IMG_6578_zps19f0e9d8.jpg

 

Some people strangely left after the sing-along instead of staying for the movie classic.

 

They must have had more important things to worry about.

 

Like where to get more sweaters when the circus pulls out of town.

After breakfast, we said goodbye to Lou and Gail:

 

IMG_6625_zpsb422809e.jpg

 

They will make another appearance later in this TR though.

 

After saying goodbye, the kids wanted to go see some characters:

From there, we went back to the Fort for to take another dip at the Meadow pool:

IMG_6684_zpsb9a603c1.jpg

 

When we got back to the PUP, the kids napped for a bit and DW and I dug into some goodies we purchased a couple days ago:

 

IMG_6685_zpsa634773e.jpg

 

Then I went on a solo patrol in the golf cart.  I checked on a few things for the fiends, which I posted live at the time but we will go back over it all here......in much shorter form since it is now old news.
