What I Would Have Tweeted at Disney World If I Wasn't Too Cheap to Pay for Mobile Internet.



We were hoping for warm weather. We were not expecting it to be record highs and having to go from 15 degrees to the high 80s. That is a bit much.

Waking up the first morning and hearing a news story on all the recent monorail accidents and malfunctions is not a good way to start a Disney vacation. We are so not riding the monorail.

What do you mean the ferry is not operating today and we have to ride the monorail?

Florida residents are wimpy. It was 60 (at the end of the week) and the pool attendant was wearing a hoodie (hood up), her winter coat (hood up), gloves, and had a blanket wrapped around her.

My son is three and he knows the words "Excuse me." Why don't you?

Why are there Christmas Decorations up, it's hot? Oh, yeah...

Why are they playing Christmas music, it's hot? Oh, yeah...

Why did that person just wish me Merry Christmas, it feels like the middle of summer! (As Kate said, Disney is surreal enough as it is, let alone being in the 80s at Christmas.)

My oh my, look at all the spandex. When did that come back in style? Oh, it didn't? (Kate: It never was, dear.)

Why is the volume so loud at all the shows? Yikes, it was painful at a couple of them.

I was beyond disturbed by the cartons of "Mickey's Milk" being sold everywhere. All I could think about was the Simpson's episode in which Fat Tony is selling rat's milk to the schools.

Speaking of the Simpson's, my head was near exploding from all the references I kept thinking of while walking around the park. ("True or False? You can get mono from riding the monorail.")

Oh wow, they are making it snow at the Magic Kingdom! I could care less since we came here to get away from it!

Ew. Lady, do you really want to be catching that chemically created fake snow on your tongue?

What is the fascination with the smoked turkey leg?

By the third time through It's a Small World in one week, you start noticing which parts are broken. The poor leprechauns were dead, and one of the hula dancers was not really shaking her hips and head anymore. It looked more like she was seizing.

Me: No Jack, you can't go swimming. It's pouring down rain.
Jack: But those kids are!
Kate: Well Jack, their Mommies and Daddies must not care if they get sick or struck by lightening.
My kids are awesome. We had so many people come up to us all week and tell us how well behaved they are. (Usually while another child was screaming or throwing a fit nearby.)

Okay, so random people also kept coming up and telling us how adorable Amelie is.

Having just been a couple weeks ago, this made me laugh out loud....there may have been snorting involved.
