Default Trip report

It was a beautiful day, sunny and 72 degrees. I got there early and
got a parking spot up front. There's two ways to get to the Magic
Kingdom, by monorail or by boat. Since I'm a man of the seas I chose
the boat. I shall have to report that boat to the Coasties since I
noticed there weren't enough life jackets.

I got inside the park and started taking pictures. I only took three
pics and the camera said, "Memory full." WTF? I got an 8G card in
that camera. I should be able to hold a thousand pics. I went
through the menu and deleted several pics and I found I had to
separately put each pic on to the card. That's what you get when you
buy a cheap camera at Big Lots. Anyway, here are a couple:

The place was packed. I had picked a day when the kids were back in
school and I was surprised to see that many people there.

There should be a couple more rules there.

1. Nobody under 16 years old. Too damn many kids there. And
especially NO STROLLERS at every ride there was an acre of parking for
strollers. It costs $60 to bring in toddlers and they are too young
to enjoy the attractions.

2. No cell phones. Thousands of people talking on cell phones or
bumping into you while texting.

3. No back packs. What are they for anyways? How do you enjoy one of
the attractions with that on your back? Backpacks are for hiking, not
sitting on a ride or in a theater.

4. Beer. How do they have the nerve to call it the happiest place on
earth when they don't sell beer? The happiest place on earth would be
called, "Tequila World." Everybody is happy when they're drinking
tequila. Sad miserable grumpy people don't drink tequila, they are
gin drinkers.

I had a good time. Nobody was killed. I didn't even have to gouge
anyone's eyeballs out with my fingernails.

Vote for Romney. Repeal the nightmares.

To keep your beer warm?

All seriousness aside. They're probably to hold all the money you
need. It was $14 to park, $90 to walk inside. A hot dog costs $8. A
bottle of OJ costs $3. If they sold beer, a bottle would cost about
$12 and a shot of whiskey would be about $20.

I don't know because the Matterhorn is at the Animal Kingdom. But I'm
sure it was all man made.

I can state for a fact that Big Thunder Mountain had no snow but Space
Mountain was covered in white. I got a great pic of Space Mountain.

Vote for Romney. Repeal the nightmares.

You just admitted in front of thousands of witnesses that you paid to
have someone assault a military official. That's going to look good
on your FBI file.

Damn right. I can't wait to hear from the FBI.
Goofy did apologize. He said that he found you, and the minute you
saw him you crapped your pants. Smelled so bad he felt sorry for you.
But he won't give me my dog bones back. Maybe you can get the FBI to
enforce a refund.

Nice pics.

I can't believe it's Jan 4, and they still have a Christmas tree up.
In Florida!
