Those are all great pictures!!!
 
Wow! That's crazy about SE getting shut down right after your rode. Glad you were able to ride it.

That's such a cute pic of Chunkysis and Mexican Donald. I have the funniest photos from 2012 of my grandson, who was 18 months old at the time, and Mexican Donald. He literally freaked out at poor Donald. It was really strange because he loved all other characters that trip except Mexican Donald. Maybe it was the poncho?

China's pavilion is gorgeous! Good thing they didn't cancel the meet with Mulan and just moved it inside. Nice photos, too!
 
I'm probably going to annoy you with comments :thumbsup2 but here I am to catch up! I always love your TRs and I can't wait to see what all you three got up to!

Su-Lynn pats herself on the back for clever TR title as others roll their eyes
I knew exactly what you were going for and I DID think it was clever (virtual back pat from melinda)

Closet Disney Fan. Reluctant Annual Passholder and only bought DVC to calm Crazy DIS wife down
:laughing: That's the beauty of being a newlywed, I just bought mine before I got married. #IdowhatIwant

And jam. She loves jam

Doesn't understand why jam is not served at every meal
You know, I agree with Su-Queen. But also I am dying for the story!!! :rotfl:
 
We walked indoors through the meandering hallways and out the exit that was the closest to Epcot. It was awesome to be so close!
We loved the close proximity at Beach Club too though we only took the hallway once. Our room was a ways from it and by the time we meandered we realized it took a lot longer.

I believe we got top row in the B section without even asking. On this trip we were of two extremes everytime we rode Soarin' - we were either in the optimal top middle, or else we were in the worst seats at the bottom side. There was no in-between!
I'm so clueless I didn't even realize it mattered where you sat until recently. So now that I was attuned to it I wanted to see the difference and dontcha know we were in section B in the top or middle row every time.

Obviously Steve and I were prepared to meet a certain Crazy Dis Asian...actually the ORIGINAL Crazy Dis Asian, LOL.
In what universe are you not the original Crazy Dis Asian?

Steve and what I have now come to know as Space Jesus (Thanks to @pepperandchips!)

What are you talking about? That is clearly Steve.

As a consolation prize, we did use the photobooths in the dump shop. All this is included with Memory Maker, just don't print them out as they will charge you, but if you just scan your band it'll be saved.

Xi’an Pancake with Beef


The pancake is pretty much a scallion pancake and the filling is a spicy sauteed beef. I liked the pancake a lot, and thought the beef was decent but not great. it was flavorfull but I would prefer less sauce as then it'll be easier to pick up and eat. This was so hard to eat especially when standing as you can't really cut the pancake and if you could just roll it up and eat it would have been so much better.
Sorry the beef was a bit of a bust but I love, love, love scallion pancakes. We have a few places by our house that make them and they are so, so good!

:worship::worship::worship::worship::worship:

Last time we met Mulan I asked her for matchmaker's help in finding my sis a boyfriend. Looks like it's sorta worked out as my sister is seeing someone at the moment. Not sure if it's that serious yet but we were joking throughout the trip that we should pay a visit to the wedding chapel at the GF just to "check things out" LOL. Hopefully there will be wedding bells soon because I want to go to a Disney wedding! :rotfl:
I can only fathom the costume changes and characters that would equal a ChunkySis Crazy Dis Asian wedding. That would certainly be one for the record books. You should probably go ahead and sign her up for the Disney wedding show now.
 


Hi Su-Lynn. I love your trip reports and will be following along. I just started reading and had to comment, but will go back to read everything. It’s funny, when I started to read this you were talking about your injured knee and I thought I’d already read this. Then I remembered that I follow you on Instagram, so that’s where I read it! Love both. Okay, back to the beginning now... hope you feel better from your cold soon and that your knee has improved.
 
t was our 2nd day of vacation! That's like the best day of a trip because you're over the first day excitement and fatigue, you're reared up and ready to go and you still have the rest of the trip to look forward to, hehe.

Yeeesss - completely agree on this! The second day of vacation is the best for sure.

And then they saw our shirts and proceeded to do some Karate Kid style hijinks. It was so cute.

That's awesome! And great idea to meet them so soon after Soarin'. I really want to meet them on this trip and have been trying to figure that out. We have a PPO at Garden Grill one morning and then was planning on hitting Soarin' and then will head to Joy and Sadness!

After I posted my instagram story about how we rode SE with the lights on, my friend Betsy texted me that article. Crazy! We did not notice the leaks at all but we were actually the last group of people to ride before they closed it for a day. Whew, at least we made it on!

That's nuts! I saw pictures of the leaking Spaceship Earth but hadn't realized you all were on the last ride before they closed it!

Coming up...the worst thing I ate during Food & Wine...

Uh oh...
 
Definitely a good call on waiting for Joy and Sadness early, their line is no joke!

I am amazed that it's been so long after their movie and yet their line is still insanely long. I think everyone really enjoys meeting with them because they are fun and interact.

Disney weddings seem so amazing! I kind of wish I had had one but I also know I would have been so far over budget it would have been insane :rotfl:probably best to go to someone elses haha

Haha I keep thinking that I should have had one but back then (this was 10 years ago!) I was not as crazy into Disney as I am now so that would probably have surprised everyone. I also thought that we could never afford it so I never bothered to look, LOL. Definitely gonna make Chunkysis have a Disney wedding so that I can attend, :)

Those are all great pictures!!!

Thank you!! It was a fun day!

Wow! That's crazy about SE getting shut down right after your rode. Glad you were able to ride it.

We had no idea what was going on but the ride was still moving so we didn't think much of it. I guess they got so much rain it caused a leak!

That's such a cute pic of Chunkysis and Mexican Donald. I have the funniest photos from 2012 of my grandson, who was 18 months old at the time, and Mexican Donald. He literally freaked out at poor Donald. It was really strange because he loved all other characters that trip except Mexican Donald. Maybe it was the poncho?

Aww so funny. It must be the poncho or the sombrero!

China's pavilion is gorgeous! Good thing they didn't cancel the meet with Mulan and just moved it inside. Nice photos, too!

I know! I'm glad we stayed to wait because there was no way I was going to miss this with the outfits we wore that day!

I'm probably going to annoy you with comments :thumbsup2 but here I am to catch up! I always love your TRs and I can't wait to see what all you three got up to!

I love it when you annoy me with comments. :)

I knew exactly what you were going for and I DID think it was clever (virtual back pat from melinda)

Haha, thank you! Virtual hug from me! :hug:

:laughing: That's the beauty of being a newlywed, I just bought mine before I got married. #IdowhatIwant

That was an excellent idea!!!

You know, I agree with Su-Queen. But also I am dying for the story!!! :rotfl:

Hahaha, there isn't too much of a story, she just really really loves Jam. A lot!

We loved the close proximity at Beach Club too though we only took the hallway once. Our room was a ways from it and by the time we meandered we realized it took a lot longer.

It's so nice to be so close to Epcot isn't it? I loved it!

I'm so clueless I didn't even realize it mattered where you sat until recently. So now that I was attuned to it I wanted to see the difference and dontcha know we were in section B in the top or middle row every time.

Wow lucky you!! I always think it's like destiny or something when I end up in the prime middle top row. :rotfl:

In what universe are you not the original Crazy Dis Asian?

THANK YOU KARI!!
I was waiting for someone to say that. :rotfl:

What are you talking about? That is clearly Steve.

You are correct again!!

I had no idea the photo booths came with Memory Maker. Casey is gonna have a ball with that on our next trip!

We just discovered this last year and it's become a little mini obsession. :)

Wow, here I thought you were into Crazy Dis Asians but its the Crazy Norse men that really get ya going :-)

You know what they say about those hammers...

Sorry the beef was a bit of a bust but I love, love, love scallion pancakes. We have a few places by our house that make them and they are so, so good!

Well made scallion pancakes are soooo good!
Yeah the beef inside didn't really add anything plus it was messy. I think I'd be happy with just the pancake!
If they were smart they would have cut up the pancake into wedges and have a spicy dipping sauce or something. That would work so much better plus the pancake would stay crispy!

I can only fathom the costume changes and characters that would equal a ChunkySis Crazy Dis Asian wedding. That would certainly be one for the record books. You should probably go ahead and sign her up for the Disney wedding show now.

Hahaha you're right! Imagine the outfits, the tiaras, the decor!
She'll just need to find a prince who can pay for all of this lol.
But I will submit her name to the Disney Fairytale weddings when she actually gets married, hehe.

Love both. Okay, back to the beginning now... hope you feel better from your cold soon and that your knee has improved.

Hi there and welcome! Thanks so much for following!
Ugh my cold, has blossomed into full blown bronchitis, and my knee is getting better but still painful - it's a slow process but hopefully it gets better quickly!

Yeeesss - completely agree on this! The second day of vacation is the best for sure.

Right? I love the feeling of second day vacation! :)

That's awesome! And great idea to meet them so soon after Soarin'. I really want to meet them on this trip and have been trying to figure that out. We have a PPO at Garden Grill one morning and then was planning on hitting Soarin' and then will head to Joy and Sadness!

Yup that is a good idea, their line is always so long! So we lucked out that morning.

That's nuts! I saw pictures of the leaking Spaceship Earth but hadn't realized you all were on the last ride before they closed it!

Yeah we had no idea it was a leak! It was down for about a day and a half I think.
 


It was our 2nd day of vacation! That's like the best day of a trip because you're over the first day excitement and fatigue, you're reared up and ready to go and you still have the rest of the trip to look forward to, hehe.

I completely agree!

Here's CS's outfit of the day

I don't know how she is wearing that sweater in the Florida heat! Cute outfit though!

Mulan finally appeared.

I feel as though they have changed Mulan's outfit since I last saw her, very pretty!
 
I completely agree!

Another vote for 2nd day of vacation! Woohoo!

I don't know how she is wearing that sweater in the Florida heat! Cute outfit though!

It wasn't pleasant! But she has a "look" and she refuses to budge. She did remove the sweater when not in pictures though.

I feel as though they have changed Mulan's outfit since I last saw her, very pretty!

Didn't they change all the princess outfits a little while ago? I don't know if they changed Mulan's again but I very rarely meet her!
 
Here we are sauntering in to meet Joy and Sadness all gangsta-like.
:rotfl2::cool1:
But seriously, you do look a bit "mobbish" lol!

OK so, our ride through SE was very different. I couldn't place it at first, but then I realized, the lights were on! It wasn't exceptionally bright or anything, unlike Space Mountain with the lights on, but everything was just illuminated bet
I remember that happening!
And ooh I don't like that picture, I can see all the staging under the scene. It's like.....we're not really taking a trip through the centuries or something?? That can't be right, can it???

The TV screens still worked but apparently only my picture registered and not Steves.
Of course it's working, you're having breakfast with @MeghanEmily ::yes::

OK so I think they changed the nachos a bit because the cheese sauce is white and not the regular orange-y nacho cheese. Also I think the chips are different. They still tasted great, but somehow I liked their previous version better. Someone please tell me this change isn't for good?
Idk if the change is permanent but I had the white cheese a couple weeks ago, too. I liked it! But I completely understand being particular about ones nachos. Nachos are serious business after all.
 
And then they saw our shirts and proceeded to do some Karate Kid style hijinks. It was so cute.
Oh Joy and Sadness are so adorable!

Since we had Ohana tonight, this was all Steve was going to eat that afternoon since he's all about Ohana's shrimp and doesn't want to fill up the rest of the day, haha.
If we do get a guys table in May, I wonder if they will have a shrimp competition!

I liked the pancake a lot, and thought the beef was decent but not great. it was flavorfull but I would prefer less sauce as then it'll be easier to pick up and eat. This was so hard to eat especially when standing as you can't really cut the pancake and if you could just roll it up and eat it would have been so much better.
Yeah, you can tell from the photo it would be too hard to hold!

Last time we met Mulan I asked her for matchmaker's help in finding my sis a boyfriend. Looks like it's sorta worked out as my sister is seeing someone at the moment. Not sure if it's that serious yet but we were joking throughout the trip that we should pay a visit to the wedding chapel at the GF just to "check things out" LOL. Hopefully there will be wedding bells soon because I want to go to a Disney wedding! :rotfl:
Anyways...thanks Mulan!
Fingers crossed! :love:
 
Love your trip reports! Normally lurk but thought I would say hello (from Perth Australia), and thank you for writing so I can follow along from the other side of the world :D
 
I'm joining in! But far behind already.
So I have to confess I was a lurker on one of your other reports....
I have to fix that with this one!

So, many of you know about that popular movie out right now called Crazy Rich Asians (I do highly recommend it!). Well we are all Asian and definitely crazy in our own way, so I thought I'd use it in my title, but change Rich to DIS which stands for Disney of course! Because we are not rich, but ENriched with our love for all things Disney!
*Su-Lynn pats herself on the back for clever TR title as others roll their eyes*
I like your title. I haven't seen the movie yet, but I would like to. I believe some (or all?) was filmed in Singapore and I have spent some time there, so it would be fun to watch.

This ride is so much fun!!! It's so cool to ride something for the first time in Disney World! We all loved it and thought it was awesome! You can also see the construction on Galaxy's Edge from up there. It's so cool! I loved it at night, not only was it a tad cooler, but the lights were out and it was very fun. Overall GREAT ride!!
Slinky Dog was fantastic! Sadly, I never did get to see TSL at night. I heard it was supposed to be nice, with the lights, but it just never worked out that we were there at night.
 
So... I had all of these beautiful comments lined up... and then the Dis ate them >:(:furious::badpc: So I will just hit the highlights.

We got to the airport, checked in and headed to our gate. We all have pre-check so we go through the expedited line but of course my SISTER gets stopped during security and they have to check her bag because of her rolls of PENNIES and QUARTERS. Steve of course made fun of her and CS just tossed her hair in return. #whyamInotSOLO
This tickled me. I love that she did this and cannot wait to meet her!

At the gate I made an Amazon Prime Now order to get bottles of water delivered as well as fruit and bath salts for me
treat yo self! Love this idea. I might bring some special bath stuff for soaking my feet.

I guess he could just have pulled it up on his phone but that's too cumbersome.
LOL and see I would much rather pull it up on my phone than carry around the card! The card has bailed my husband out before though, he always has his in his wallet and has been known to show up without a Magic Band... :confused3 don't worry, I started putting one of his bands in each of my usual travel bags.

I've had it almost a year and it is true, it has never been denied by a CM for refilling.
I have brought my Mickey balloon bucket back several times after getting it in April and it's still going strong! I hope they keep that design as well so I can keep refilling it. Though I haven't heard of anyone being denied. Is that a thing?

but then my sister spots Donald and Daisy so her and I decided to wait for a picture.
I didn't know they met together, that is so cute!

Then a CM came and counted the number of people in line that would fit on the next boat and OMG we just made the cut off!! :woohoo:
One time we were on a totally maxed out boat from DHS and I asked the CM what the capacity was and I want to say he told me it was over 100! I could not believe it. We had like 90something on our boat I think. It was crazy!

We were also allowed to pick a beverage and our server said alcohol was included too! It's basically any of the drinks which are available on the dining plan so anything with that symbol next to it on the drink menu.
Whaaaat? Good to know! I wonder if that's true with all the dining packages.
We walked all the way to The Land and went on Steve's favorite ride:

9f1FPsw8C6KWr7tDhvQPqBk3tVovh1vkgeoVOF9XmdVedOpAYVNiAsId6dqWE5m8EX7Swqp3ywKWgIpYZrTiuF8HZBFlxkDNgG9PcAee22FRqDisK9xGjyxhGd5rfziDENch49CK6PWC5fOD-wLnQ8hl7AHQ1E7LexL7ApBbXvebn06nhlppw9cXjx0_q5nM5IbTjZanFU9FRCSFIkgt6CNTiyVmymegQ6OOYh2CHJydq1K3iYY1xhhz7F1UI0denKfqnXuG_JkA6YvEfcIyWcYY_ssBbPkGYDMZFq-GVqa2gFxijEM4tig99PhWgJr7-SpDLQZFnLAmJz1y7OsMLuDmNno-88ayFZR4spq09TLa3FTbZfrj31HVejdsDZTJsxzEZOTdPK40rVqB5sMBQA8B81umWSI7wkLuqy980cFUhC2uPfdCWOqdZYk5PlI0lwvIBXRG-4w1XeOIXo04kUUxveP2LEOMQsDQ6r-bxNiUI_H6eGMWDAfrg_9LkSvBWUuBjRuSIfjoc1jDOnrpRqwRap8z1ah0iSqUqKk34qSFgjw_5MT_CMx-HRT860fSbc4XRjQXOkueRcHmV4NDsq1iitr1minduo_1qLzjl0yYD-rQnwrDOAk40A6jIqEy=w601-h800-no
I absolutely love that this is Steve's favorite! He is embracing "Everything is better on a boat," for sure!

I am not sure if this includes only Eat to the Beat or AP holders as well as our row was not that crowded.
I didn't read all the comments so I am probably the 900th person to make this joke, but... It looks like you're alone now. There doesn't seem to be anyone around! :dance3:
This ride is exactly like Tomater's Junkyard Jamboree in Disney's California Adventure. It's really cute, you kinda get spun around, but it's not that dizzying, or at least not as much as you think! My sister loved this ride on Tomater and loved it here too! the music is so cute. It's like if Aliens were to have a hoe-down, it would be this ride.
I never thought I would say this... ever... but I honestly missed Tow-Mater singing while I was on AS2.

Like, it would be ok for 20 minutes then it would get this weird fractal look on the picture. It was annoying but we barely watched TV so we didn't bother to mention it ultimately.

BUT LIKE... Is that even a full loop of Stacey?! :rotfl: That's pretty much the only thing we watch on the Disney resort tv. Oh, or Mickey shorts when we get sick of Must dos!

AAAllllmost caught up!
 
Here we are sauntering in to meet Joy and Sadness all gangsta-like.
I don't know why they cut that emotion from the film script. You know, Joy, Anger, Sadness, Fear, and Inner Gangsta. Would have made a compelling story. I guess I like Mindy Kaling though, so disgust will have to suffice!

Steve and what I have now come to know as Space Jesus (Thanks to @pepperandchips!)
You know you've made it to the big time on the Dis Boards when you and Space Jesus make it to a Chunky Report reference! :p

OK so, our ride through SE was very different. I couldn't place it at first, but then I realized, the lights were on! It wasn't exceptionally bright or anything, unlike Space Mountain with the lights on, but everything was just illuminated better. We wondered what had happened.
WAIT - were the lights on at the top?! I would pay money to get to see that, I am always trying to see in the dark up there!!!

I didn't realize it was actually something bigger than that:

https://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/orange/os-spaceship-earth-closed-water-leak-20180902-story.html

After I posted my instagram story about how we rode SE with the lights on, my friend Betsy texted me that article. Crazy! We did not notice the leaks at all but we were actually the last group of people to ride before they closed it for a day.
Well clearly the leak was all of the water that leaked out of that show scene you posted with the boat and not a drop of water in sight :rotfl:

We made this crazy little truck, unfortunately not as much power as I would have liked.

OK so I think they changed the nachos a bit because the cheese sauce is white and not the regular orange-y nacho cheese.
Um. That looks like sour cream! AAND if it is cheese, it doesn't look like nearly enough!

The pancake is pretty much a scallion pancake and the filling is a spicy sauteed beef. I liked the pancake a lot, and thought the beef was decent but not great. it was flavorfull but I would prefer less sauce as then it'll be easier to pick up and eat. This was so hard to eat especially when standing as you can't really cut the pancake and if you could just roll it up and eat it would have been so much better.
Thank you for reviewing this :thumbsup2 I really want to try it.

Coming up...the worst thing I ate during Food & Wine...
Ooooh a cliffhanger!
 
Then we went over to Joy and Sadness because my sister HAD to get a picture with them and this was probably the only time the waits would be short enough, and yes there were only about 3 parties ahead of us in line.

Joy and Sadness waits are crazy! I waited for them once with my sisters and unless its under 10 minutes I probably wouldn't again. Great interaction but man the line just doesn't move.

Steve and what I have now come to know as Space Jesus (Thanks to @pepperandchips!)

I think I am going to steal this!

Love the food and wine highlights. I am venturing to my first food and wine this November.
 
Not sure if it's that serious yet but we were joking throughout the trip that we should pay a visit to the wedding chapel at the GF just to "check things out" LOL. Hopefully there will be wedding bells soon because I want to go to a Disney wedding! :rotfl:
Anyways...thanks Mulan!
Oooooh, how exciting! ;) Fingers crossed! :thumbsup2
 
Reading your TR updates always make me so hungry! :laughing: The shrimp and scallop cake sounds sooo good! And I don't even like beer but I want to try that Jasmine one from China! The potstickers from Lotus Cafe are soooo good. I end up getting them on every trip, in spite of all of the F & W booths, because I love them so much. We actually ate at the CS in Japan on our last trip and I was pleasantly surprised - I got some garlic shrimp thing and it was quite good! Just when you think Epcot can't get any better, you find something new and wonderful to eat! :rotfl2:

Soarin' has long been my most favorite ride at Disney. But uuuuuuuggggghhhhhh :faint: the new video drives me insane if we aren't exactly in the middle. I don't even care about top row, I just need to be in the middle of the room.

Mulan is ridiculously adorable! I love your pics with her, they came out great!
 
:rotfl2::cool1:
But seriously, you do look a bit "mobbish" lol!

That's exactly the look I was going for when meeting Joy and Sadness!

I remember that happening!
And ooh I don't like that picture, I can see all the staging under the scene. It's like.....we're not really taking a trip through the centuries or something?? That can't be right, can it???

Does this mean we shouldn't thank the Phoenicians? I'm so confused. :scared:

Of course it's working, you're having breakfast with @MeghanEmily ::yes::

Yes, why, in fact, I am. I can predict the future. :D
That only means she's coming in May! Right @MeghanEmily?

Idk if the change is permanent but I had the white cheese a couple weeks ago, too. I liked it! But I completely understand being particular about ones nachos. Nachos are serious business after all.

They are. I mean, they were still good, but I felt they were definitely different and I think it had all to do with the orange cheese. Also the chips may be different but not sure. I think the cheese makes the difference.

Oh Joy and Sadness are so adorable!

They are so much fun.

If we do get a guys table in May, I wonder if they will have a shrimp competition!

Haha, they might very well do that. Who knows what shenanigans will go on at that table with a bunch of guys who for the most part are strangers to each other.

Yeah, you can tell from the photo it would be too hard to hold!

Yeah not the most graceful meal to eat.

Fingers crossed! :love:

Hehe me too!

Love your trip reports! Normally lurk but thought I would say hello (from Perth Australia), and thank you for writing so I can follow along from the other side of the world :D

Hi!! Thank you so much for reading! I will actually be visiting Australia in November. My cousin is getting married, she lives in Sydney.
I'm very excited. I've been there before but it has been 20 years. Steve has never been. All I remember was that it was so beautiful!

I'm joining in! But far behind already.
So I have to confess I was a lurker on one of your other reports....
I have to fix that with this one!

Hi!! Thanks so much for following :)

I like your title. I haven't seen the movie yet, but I would like to. I believe some (or all?) was filmed in Singapore and I have spent some time there, so it would be fun to watch.

That's awesome! I was born in Singapore. Most of the movie was filmed there and in Malaysia. I get so excited when I meet people that have actually been since it's so small. :thumbsup2

Slinky Dog was fantastic! Sadly, I never did get to see TSL at night. I heard it was supposed to be nice, with the lights, but it just never worked out that we were there at night.

I loved that ride! It was both cute and exciting. Riding at night is great. i'm going to have to figure out if I want to make all my FP for nighttime now. It's just so much cooler at night!

This tickled me. I love that she did this and cannot wait to meet her!

Hahaha, she is such a character. She has sold all her outfits she wore on this trip and is buying new outfits for May.

treat yo self! Love this idea. I might bring some special bath stuff for soaking my feet.

I find that soaking with the salts helps me recharge at night, and keeps me going the next day. Still, didn't prevent my knee issu, but I am also much older so this is just my feeble aching body talking. :crutches:

LOL and see I would much rather pull it up on my phone than carry around the card! The card has bailed my husband out before though, he always has his in his wallet and has been known to show up without a Magic Band... :confused3 don't worry, I started putting one of his bands in each of my usual travel bags.

Haha me too! I've always carried backup until last December when I "lost" my band inside RnRC and they couldn't find it and I forgot to bring back up bands so I "had" to go buy a new limited edition Star Wars band. Of course. :P

I have brought my Mickey balloon bucket back several times after getting it in April and it's still going strong! I hope they keep that design as well so I can keep refilling it. Though I haven't heard of anyone being denied. Is that a thing?

Yup I was denied last year when they had the teal colored lids and handles and then they switched to the metallic blue. They made me buy a new bucket!
But not anymore! Hehehe. Hope youre Balloon bucket stands the test of time.

I didn't know they met together, that is so cute!

Me neither actually so this was a nice surprise!

One time we were on a totally maxed out boat from DHS and I asked the CM what the capacity was and I want to say he told me it was over 100! I could not believe it. We had like 90something on our boat I think. It was crazy!

Ugh, and it's so hot in that boat and I feel like there's no air circulation...but better than being not on the boat and waiting in line!

Whaaaat? Good to know! I wonder if that's true with all the dining packages.

I don't know but since they had started including alcohol in the dining plans I thought to ask and they said yes! So I hope it's true for all!

I absolutely love that this is Steve's favorite! He is embracing "Everything is better on a boat," for sure!

Haha yes he will agree with that.

I didn't read all the comments so I am probably the 900th person to make this joke, but... It looks like you're alone now. There doesn't seem to be anyone around! :dance3:

No you actually are the FIRST one to make that joke!!! :rotfl2:
You are the winner!:cheer2:

I never thought I would say this... ever... but I honestly missed Tow-Mater singing while I was on AS2.

Hahaha to me they were about the same but AS2 was more...techno? :rotfl:

BUT LIKE... Is that even a full loop of Stacey?! :rotfl: That's pretty much the only thing we watch on the Disney resort tv. Oh, or Mickey shorts when we get sick of Must dos!

No it certainly wasn't a full loop of Stacy. :sad1: I just put it on the Disney blue screen so I could listen to the music.

I don't know why they cut that emotion from the film script. You know, Joy, Anger, Sadness, Fear, and Inner Gangsta. Would have made a compelling story. I guess I like Mindy Kaling though, so disgust will have to suffice!

Gangsta should be a full on super-emotion because it combines every emotion into one. :cool2:

You know you've made it to the big time on the Dis Boards when you and Space Jesus make it to a Chunky Report reference! :p

Hahaha you are too funny. I'm the one who should be delighted that you are on my TR and everyone else who reads it.

WAIT - were the lights on at the top?! I would pay money to get to see that, I am always trying to see in the dark up there!!!

The lights were only on in the beginning, when we got to the top I expected the lights to be on as well, but everything was dark.

Well clearly the leak was all of the water that leaked out of that show scene you posted with the boat and not a drop of water in sight :rotfl:

Obviously! I am shaken that there was no water. The boat won't work! :boat:

Efficiency: 01
:banana:

I've gotten a minus 2 in the past so that's what I strive for.

Um. That looks like sour cream! AAND if it is cheese, it doesn't look like nearly enough!

That's what I thought at first but it was a white cheese sauce! Maybe they ran out of regular cheddar? Either way you are right, it needs more cheese!

Thank you for reviewing this :thumbsup2 I really want to try it.

Be ready with your fork and knife! Or maybe you can ask the pancake to be served separate from the beef and just dip the pancake in the sauce. It's probably better that way.

Oooo the suspense!! I think the worst thing I ever had at F&W is the loaded Mac&cheese everyone raves about :sad2: There was just something about it that didn’t mesh well with my taste buds :crazy2::crazy2::crazy2:

Loaded mac and cheese sounded really good but I did not like the bell pepper in it when I had it last year. I detest bell pepper!
But no it wasn't the loaded mac and cheese!

Joy and Sadness waits are crazy! I waited for them once with my sisters and unless its under 10 minutes I probably wouldn't again. Great interaction but man the line just doesn't move.

Their lines are always so long! So it was a good thing we stopped as one of the first things in the morning.

I think I am going to steal this!

Love the food and wine highlights. I am venturing to my first food and wine this November.

Haha it such a good analogy, now I can't think of that mural any other way!

Oh you will have so much fun! November is the perfect time for it. Sept was way too hot and the food at the booths are very heavy and rich.

Oooooh, how exciting! ;) Fingers crossed! :thumbsup2

I know right? Mine are too!
