Canadian Buffoon's Semi-EPIC Vacation - 10/29 - Link to new TR!

Wish I could say that the vacation
is starting well...
Was hoping to get some sleep
before the cab picks me up at 2:30am.
But looks like that's not going to happen.
Unfortunately that's paired with not sleeping
the last two nights (worked the night shift)
and really not sleeping very well for over
two weeks (some personal issues).

I'm sorry to hear this, but there's nothing like being down there to take your mind off things.

I feel your pain on the working nights/not sleeping thing. It's the worst feeling in the world. Do try to get some sleep on the plane.


But soon I'll be winging my way to Florida
where I'm sure the house the Mouse
built will have me smiling and my
worries will be behind me.

:banana::banana::banana:


Besides...
No sleep like a Disney sleep, right? :)

So true!


God I’m tired. Do I look tired? I look tired.

Yikes! 2:40 am! :scared1:


It’s not caffeinated
but it has sugar.
Will that help?

Sure…whatever it takes ::yes::

Have an amazing trip!
 
I sense You're thinking about you next trip and dreaming of Mickey bars and dole whips.

I knew you were going
To say that.
See? Working already! ::yes:: ;)

Unfortunately that's paired with not sleeping
the last two nights (worked the night shift)
and really not sleeping very well for over
two weeks (some personal issues).
I'm sorry to hear that :( But I've very happy to see you're on your way to everybody's favorite happy place! That's bound to put the pep back in your step :hug:

Besides...
No sleep like a Disney sleep, right? :)
Right! :thumbsup2
 
Sorry to hear about your lack of sleep but I totally understand it. Hope you can get some sleep on the plane! Safe travels!
 


I was gone for a few weeks so I'm just now catching up on the last few chapters!

For some reason, our driver
couldn't seem to find the lobby.
That's understandable, given that it's hardly ever in the relatively same location in each and every hotel everywhere.

Either way, there was
an "oyed" involved.
Gotta watch out for those oyeds. They can come back to bite ya.

Our view from our room:
Amazing view! Can you see people losing their lunch on Hulk??

Place to drown your sorrows
after a baffling phone exchange:
Hotels just know what we need, amirite??

Well... zero bedknobs.
I find your chapter title highly misleading.

Holy crap...
I'd just changed my very
expensive Universal tickets
for an Annual Pass.
A Seasonal Annual Pass...
With blackout dates.
Nothing wakes you up quite like the adrenaline of an early morning panic attack!

You are actually in the
same land that Harry trod upon.
I love Diagon Alley so much. It is impossible to describe the feeling in words or capture pictures adequate enough. You simply have to be there.

It was pretty fun, but also
pretty rough.
We were glad we did it,
but just as glad to have survived.
I love coasters but this one gets me. That dang vertical ascent messes with me!

Transformers was quite possibly
our least favourite ride in
the park.
In both parks.
Oh really?? I love Transformers. I love that it's pretty much Spiderman but with Optimus Prime instead. Sorry you didn't enjoy it too much!

The ride was... not bad.
I think you're being rather generous here. It is multiple levels of terrible.

If you've never had Butterbeer...
It's worth going to Universal
It's the sole reason I go.

I'm sure it was either a glitch
or I had a faulty gun.
Huh weird the same thing happens to my DH all the time.

"Watch it. I don't have to
be nice to kids...
this isn't Disney."
:rotfl2:

He stood in the tub the whole time
they were there (about 10 minutes?)
and was on the phone talking
loudly the whole time.
WHY on earth would someone even take their cell phone into a hot tub? Rude is one thing but dumb is another...


Anyway, I hope you have an amazing trip!!
 


Hope you can catch another flight. Is this the flight from home or via Toronto?
 
I'm sorry to hear this, but there's nothing like being down there to take your mind off things.
I'm still trying to get there!
I feel your pain on the working nights/not sleeping thing. It's the worst feeling in the world. Do try to get some sleep on the plane.
Yeah it's the worst.
And people how don't do it
or have never done it will
never get just how horrible

it really is.
Still waiting for this...
Yikes! 2:40 am! :scared1:
Sooo happy about that.

No. Really.

Totally...

Absolutely worth it.



Yep.


100%...




You're not buying this are you?
Sure…whatever it takes ::yes::
It didn't help.
But the Coke I just chugged... should.

Have an amazing trip!
I hope so... eventually!
 
Sorry to hear about your lack of sleep but I totally understand it. Hope you can get some sleep on the plane! Safe travels!
Thanks, Courtney.
While I didn't
(and don't normally)
sleep on the plane,
I did close my eyes

since they were burning.
 
I was gone for a few weeks so I'm just now catching up on the last few chapters!
Hi, Ann! Welcome back! :)
That's understandable, given that it's hardly ever in the relatively same location in each and every hotel everywhere.
They like to move it around.
It's the adult version of "tag".

Gotta watch out for those oyeds. They can come back to bite ya.
Well right now I'm annoyed,
exhaustoyed and frustratoyed.

Amazing view! Can you see people losing their lunch on Hulk??
Is that what that was?
I thought it was just cell phones
and pocket change.
But sure. It's probably that

and barf, too.
Hotels just know what we need, amirite??
youarerite
I find your chapter title highly misleading.
I like to keep my readers
on their toes.

Nothing wakes you up quite like the adrenaline of an early morning panic attack!
Oh it woke me up all right.
I love Diagon Alley so much. It is impossible to describe the feeling in words or capture pictures adequate enough. You simply have to be there.
Well said.
I'd seen photos quite a bit and...
I still wasn't prepared for how

overwhelmingly well done it is!
I love coasters but this one gets me. That dang vertical ascent messes with me!
::yes::
Oh really?? I love Transformers. I love that it's pretty much Spiderman but with Optimus Prime instead. Sorry you didn't enjoy it too much!
I think you're in the minority.
Almost everyone has said they
didn't like it.
I think you're being rather generous here. It is multiple levels of terrible.
:rolleyes1

I thought I was maybe
judging it too harshly.

Apparently... not so much.
It's the sole reason I go.
I believe you!
Huh weird the same thing happens to my DH all the time.
:lmao:
WHY on earth would someone even take their cell phone into a hot tub? Rude is one thing but dumb is another...
Never underestimate people's
ability for rudeness or idiocy.

Anyway, I hope you have an amazing trip!!
Not off to an auspicious start...
But I have hope!
 
Oh no! So sorry to hear about your travel woes. I hope you've moved on to the "fun and fancy free" portion of your trip!
 
Meghan! Hi!!! :wave:
Loving the new Avatar,
by the way. :)

Thanks! Merida and I had a wonderful time on our last visit!

When she finally gave me
her own phone number,
I had two choices.
Get angry or laugh.

I chose to laugh.

I told her it was her own
number and before I hung
up I heard her say "Wait..."
but I wasn't going to waste

any more time on her.

Might as well laugh about it! Oh dear.

Minimal waits... on Christmas day?

:rolleyes1

Right?! Sounds like a lie, but it was the truth! Christmas Day and Boxing Day we were there. Reasonably low crowds. I was shocked!

Next time go.
The queue is fun and
the preshow is a movie
that's fun to see too.
Then when the doors open,
just walk straight on through,

joining those exiting.

Good advice!

No, she never touched it!

:confused3

Then I have no idea! But good for her!

It was definitely... okay.

:laughing:

God I’m tired. Do I look tired? I look tired.

...maybe a little.

Whelp...
there goes my flight.
Without me.

Oh no!! I hope this is all resolved now! How frustrating!
 
Have a wonderful trip (even though it was off to a not so great start!) I hope by now you are fully rested (or caffeinated) and ready to enjoy!
