FigmentChick 0 Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 I'm glad you shared. I want you to now I'm laughing with you not at you :rofl2:Trust me Doodle, it was quite a scene!!! :hah: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 Two things:1. For everyone- I'm glad no one got hurt falling off the cart. I know a lady who broke her hip from falling off a golf cart the exact way that Figment Chick described. I have always been careful to make sure everyone is seated and ready to go ever since. This lady was just in her 40's when this happened to her. A broken hip is not funny.2. For Lisa- I hate to ask, but it's bothering me. What happened to Molly?TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Oh leave it to Mr. Responsible to make sure everyone is seated. :popo: Just teasing, I hate riding in the back for that reason and I'm always afraid some other idiot is going to hit me from behind (and not in a good way)2.

The crazy part is that I told DH that we were ready, but apparently he mashed the pedal a bit hard and the cart lurched forward. Make no mistake about it, he felt awful even though we were okay. It certainly taught us to always be sure that we're braced and ready for take-off. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just teasing, I hate riding in the back for that reason and I'm always afraid some other idiot is going to hit me from behind (and not in a good way)We almost witnessed this very scenario one evening w/ a group of teen boys on two different carts. Very scary! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lil Lisa 53 Posted September 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 The white room is kinda creepy, like they are all being sterilized. It's like getting a vascectomy on the ice planet Hoth.Where did I put my mental floss... :rofl2: Deal!Uh...although my contribution may be something like this(cut to about 1:15).Interesting observation on The White Room. I always felt uneasy there, and now I know why...Love the video! As long as it is Mickey, that's OK. Fast indeed! My daughter and I learned this the hard way. The crew and I had just departed the bus at the Outpost and were wiped out from a full day at AK. All was well until DD and I hopped on the back of our spiffy looking Kenny cart. DH was driving and luckily my son was up front w/ him, b/c when DH hit the pedal DD and I flew off the back and landed in the golf cart parking lot! Luckily, we were both fine and could barely catch our breath from laughing so hard. Of course we had a huge audience to witness our tumble, but somehow Disney magic has a way of making road rash seem funny! Sorry, I just had to share that story. Call me crazy, but that's what memories are made of!Tie wraps sound like a good idea, not only for decorations, but for holding us in place on the cart!!! :rofl:Oh wow! I'm glad that nobody was seriously hurt. They need seat belts for those things!Two things:1. For everyone- I'm glad no one got hurt falling off the cart.

She was almost 15 and it was just her time to go. Tessy Belle is our new addition. She can't replace Molly, but she will have a new place in our lives. 1.

Between work and work and catching up on things that didn't get done while we were gone, I only have about a half hour a day to work on this. I really need to retire...

Lil Lisa 53 Posted September 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2011 Even More of Day 2 – More Waiting and More MagicWe visited for a while with Lou, hung out at the camper for a bit and then we headed back to the Magic Kingdom. On the boat ride back, the sky was looking kind of stormy. The CM on the boat assured us that it would be a quick shower and that it should clear up by 6:30 or so… It started sprinkling when we got off the boat. I was in the mood for a Dole Whip, so we headed off for Aloha Isle. No sooner had I ordered it, than the sky opened up. It rained…And rained…And it rained some more…Even the folks in ponchos were soaked!Finally after about forty-five minutes it let up enough for us to make a break for it. We thought it best to pursue indoor activities, so we headed for the Country Bear Jamboree. Even though this is a classic, neither one of us had ever seen the show. Now we have and that’s all I have to say about that! It was still raining when the show was over, so we headed for Pirates of the Caribbean. This has always been one of our favorites. There’s just something about whisky and wenches that gives us a warm fuzzy feeling inside. It kind of makes you feel all pure by comparison, like you belong in the white room in Small World… We left Pirates and guess what? The rain had let up! We decided to head off to Tomorrowland. We got a bite to eat and I let Bruce kick my butt at Buzz Lightyear. Then we headed off for the People Mover where we got a sneak peak at Space Mountain with the lights on.If Space Mountain were a blind date, it would be described as one with a great personality and it definitely looks better with the lights off. Then it was already time for wishes. My, how time flies when you are waiting for the rain to stop. Speaking of rain, it had started again, but the show must go on. We scoped out a dry place to watch under the overhang by Tomorrowland Terrace.It wasn’t the greatest vantage point, but it was dry and we didn’t have any rain gear. In case you are wondering, we aren’t anti-poncho. In fact we are very pro-poncho but we hadn’t brought them along and we didn’t want to pay for new ones. You would think that someone with a meteorology degree would pay more attention to the weather… Oh well, I guess that’s why I am a software geek now. :) We watched wishes and then made our way back to the camper. When we got there, it finally stopped raining…Tomorrow… Animal Kingdom and Epcot! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PureTcrazy...rita 380 Posted September 14, 2011 Report Share Posted September 14, 2011 I love that you "Let Bruce" beat you at Buzz! Edward and I were talking about the weather in Florida the other day. The only time of the year that you can predict the weather is summer and it is easy...it will be HOT AS HADES and there will be an afternoon shower most days! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted September 14, 2011 Report Share Posted September 14, 2011 Anyone know a good bank I could rob?You and Brian should talk. He has a plan in his head involving an armored car...:rofl2: I was in the mood for a Dole Whip, so we headed off for Aloha Isle. No sooner had I ordered it, than the sky opened up. Thank goodness you got your Dole Whip first!!! If Space Mountain were a blind date, it would be described as one with a great personality and it definitely looks better with the lights off. Indeed!

FigmentChick 0 Posted September 14, 2011 Report Share Posted September 14, 2011 Oh wow! I'm glad that nobody was seriously hurt. They need seat belts for those things!We lost Molly. She was almost 15 and it was just her time to go. Tessy Belle is our new addition. She can't replace Molly, but she will have a new place in our lives. I'm glad we weren't hurt either. Looking back, we still get a kick out of it, but at the same time it did teach us a very valuable lesson. After that incident, the cart didn't move until EVERYONE vocalized that they were ready. The same procedure will apply for our upcoming November trip too.I'm so sorry about Molly. We lost our adult male Boxer last year, and it still hurts so much. Thank goodness we have one of his pups, Rocky! He reminds us so much of his wonderful dad! Btw, love the name Tessy Belle...too cute!Loving the TR so far!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

She can't replace Molly, but she will have a new place in our lives. I'm so sorry. I figured that was the case. But, then I thought maybe she was left with a pet sitter or something. I had to ask.If Space Mountain were a blind date, it would be described as one with a great personality and it definitely looks better with the lights off. I've said it before, and I will say it again- you are the queen of one-liners!You are doing a great job on your report. Don't cave in to peer pressure and rush it.
