CCIntrigue...aka Gwen 547 Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 Carol, your pictures are great I'm so glad AoA is where you decided to tour.However, I also have to say wow but not in a good way. I think I'd get a headache staying there. It's just too busy, too many color pops. Your photos have affirmed that AoA is not for me. However, I can see that it would have appeal to families with young children. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Brent... Just Brent 83 Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 Great updates! I've tented in the summer and did just fine. Amazing what we can get used to. How were the lines in the AoA food court? Was there still a lot of waiting around on your food or did they remedy that problem? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PureTcrazy...rita 380 Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 Awesome pics, Carol! Love the ones looking back towards Pop. You are right, we've seen the opposite view oodles of times. I remember thinking when they opened the "legendary years" that I would be trying it out. Thankfully, I don't have to worry about that now 'cause you'll find me at the Fort! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted August 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 :banana: Bring it on! Got my bathing suit on, grabbing the towels. I'm all ready to sit in a cone with a cool drink now... :jumpforjoyThose cones are cool!!Honey,I am afraid I need to remind you that you aren't in Florida anymore and if you proceed to talk this way... well people will start to talk. To many people start talking and they might decide to commit you. If they commit you, you will not be able to go back to Florida. :rofl2: :rofl2: :rofl2:That is FUNNY right there!!That resort is just wow!Yes it is!!Carol, your pictures are great I'm so glad AoA is where you decided to tour.However, I also have to say wow but not in a good way. I think I'd get a headache staying there. It's just too busy, too many color pops. Your photos have affirmed that AoA is not for me. However, I can see that it would have appeal to families with young children.Yeah, I know Blue is not your favorite color and with the Nemo and Little Mermaid sections, that is a LOT of Blue. Radiator Springs and the Lion King sections are a lot more earth tonesLooking forward to the trip to Radiator Springs! Its the best damn town in carburetor county.....or so I've heard.Yes it is!!Can't wait to get my kicks, on Route 66! :doodebug:Coming right up!Great updates! I've tented in the summer and did just fine. Amazing what we can get used to.How were the lines in the AoA food court? Was there still a lot of waiting around on your food or did they remedy that problem?Yeah, as long as I didn't need to be IN the tent in the heat of the day, I was fine, and yes there was a wait for my food, but it WAS fresh!!Ditto!! Coming up soon!Awesome pics, Carol! Love the ones looking back towards Pop. You are right, we've seen the opposite view oodles of times. I remember thinking when they opened the "legendary years" that I would be trying it out. Thankfully, I don't have to worry about that now 'cause you'll find me at the Fort!Yeah, same here, but on occasion we do stay at a Value resort, but I can get a room a lot cheaper at All-Star Music!

stefa70 205 Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 Phew, caught up!Great pics of AOA. I agree with you, I like the Cars section better. Especially love the VW bus, very cool and hippie-ish.The Nemo section is adorable, but probably more suited to families with kids.I appreciate all your photos! :thumbsup2: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nicki aka Rebelstand 272 Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 Especially love the VW bus, very cool and hippie-ish.Me TOOO! I want me one of them there VW buses.Great Pics Carol. That place is amazing. Just amazing! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted August 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 I wandered back around to the front and under the Porte Coche they have several of these easels set up. A distraction for the kids as they get off DME.I then went into the gift shop and found a shirt I liked, and also wanted to buy a soft drink cause it was HOT, BUT the gift shop does NOT have a cold case for soft drinks, you have to go into the food court to get a soft drink from their cold case. I think that's a fail thereAnd now I'm back on the bus leaving the resortWWOS sign againMore of the Fort and other "stuff" soon!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nicki aka Rebelstand 272 Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 all I can say is wow! Fort prices have gotten me spoiled. I could go to the Fort 3 times for what AoA costs for one trip! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AC in A2......Aaron 693 Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 The Cars section is phenomenal! Definitely have to take a side trip there just so the kids can see all the cars! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
