I have the passports, as well as their imprinted lanyards and the deluxe guide. So, what FUN adult things should I ensure that we do during our December trip? I have done the Drink Around the World Showcase in the past; in addition, what else should we pursue?

Originally Posted By MPierce >> Who is this TDLFAN of whom you speak?!

He holds AP's to all the Disney Parks in these cities. I'm not sure about Paris, and Hong Kong. He does great trip reports with pictures also, and really kept this forum lively. Let's just say TDLFAN is sort of outspoken. He pretty much speaks his mind on anything to anybody. Once you start to understand who he is you discover he is just a loveable cuddly little sugar bear! I miss his input a lot.

He was following the rules and she was completely unreasonable. When I taught last year, at least three of the parents at a CHRISTIAN school raked me over the coals for things I didn't even do! They jumped all over me before hearing my side of the story. People are tired of getting treated like garbage - that's why I'm not teaching anymore. Steven Slater probably just got fed up.

If it had been at that other school you were teaching at they probably would have pulled out a gun, and shot you.
