Originally Posted By TDLFAN I am on my way out but no pics from DAK this time. Sorry. My albums is filled to max with new pics from TDR current events, HKDL Resorts and DLP's last visit. I much rather keep those in place for a few more weeks for other who are not fortunate to visit overseas to check out and enjoy/criticize.

Originally Posted By TDLFAN >>Well at least give us a nice report! << But I did already!! ..and NO, there was no stentch over DAK. Just semi naked UK tourists.

I mean, if somebody told me that I could travel halfway around the world to get hit in the head by a rare jewelled hammer that only comes out of storage once in a generation, I think I'd still pass. . .

Maxwell's silver hammer made sure that she was dead P.C. thirty one said "we've caught a dirty one" Maxwell stands alone Painting testimonial pictures, oh, oh, oh, oh Rose and Valerie screaming from the gallery Say he must go free The judge does not agree, and he tells them so-o-o-o But, as the words are leaving his lips A noise comes form behind Bang! Bang! Maxwell's silver hammer came down upon her head Clang! Clang! Maxwell's silver hammer made sure that he was dead Silver hammer man
