Does ya got a death wish goin' fer yer own son?! Don't ya know what kind a bad luck yer invitin' on yerself by offerin' up yer boy ta the likes a my theme park hag of a sister?!

On the one hand, it is convenient to have my own. If my son falls asleep, it reclines. Plus we have lots of storage space underneath (don't have to rent a locker). However, I have to manage folding it up and finding room for it on the tram, and also risk it getting stolen, which has in fact happened to us before.

Originally Posted By liveforvacations I totally agree with the on about whether to bring along a jacket? Or in my case, four jackets which makes the backpack heavy and full. So then should we rent a locker? But then it always seems that when we need the jacket, we are always so far away from the locker that we don't bother and freeze instead so we wasted money on the locker. Uhhh, but if I carry the jackets, then we never need them. Decisions, decisions. makes

An' what's this 'bout yer hubby matchin' charms with the tramp? Is he a warlock er somethin'? Even so, I bet I know what happened! Orddu went an' broke the rules an' cast a dang spell on the both of ya's--just so she could fin'ly see what it was like ta corrupt two folks who couldn't see what was a comin'!! Last thing I'd do, if'n I was yerself, is ta go 'round temptin' a bad fate! 'Cause if'n ya does, yer gonna' regret it. Yer hubby MIGHT just end up with a witch fer a second wife!! ORWEN: I'm unsure if the state of California allows a man to have more than one wife. Does it? ORGOCH: Oh, who went an' ate YER Krispy Kreme, ya dang fool!! Cain't ya see I'm tryin' ta talk sense inta somebody who needs it? This is dang SERIOUS!!!

Every single trip. >>>For funnel cakes, Sea World has the best.<<< I have not had them at Sea World so I will not pass judgement. But my favorite is at the California State Fair. There are many funnel cake booths there but only one that sells them with Baverian Cream. OMG!!!!!!Lucious! This last trip I think I was their first customer. I saw it made before my eyes with what I think was extra everything. I could not even finish it; for which my grandchildren were grateful. Thanks for the heads-up about frozen/microwaved ones. I will not be unsure but rather dead set against that.

Originally Posted By ImNotAllThereMyself Things I am unsure about. At first this thread. I thought. "I love everything about DL" then I started reading it.. I AGREE WITH SO MANY OF YOU. Jackets- Always.I lilve in the desert and so I am cold if I walk in the shade. Lockers- between the jackets, adn the small cooler- we bring our own lunches and snacks so we can have a nice dinner instead of two cheapy meals- we always get a locker. HOWEVER, if we leave early,,, we give the locker to someone. Churros and funnel cakes- thanks for the heads up. DH loves funnelcakes ( also from years of MagicMtn.) He would be dissapointed. the only snacks that we still buy, are pickles...DH loves him them pickles. and the sweets, candy apple or mikeymalow. Outside intruding- I hate the mc-d's is spewing their french fry smell all over dl. WanderingAlice- Thanks for the heads up on the splash mtn back seat. DH and I are not so small adults... We would look like DROWNED Cats... 1disneymom23boys- I am shocked and dismayed that someone STOLE your stroller.. WTH. Why? I think that would totally ruin my trip. Someone needs to create a stroller boot....HMMM I bet a carclub would work.. Love Cheshire Cat
Originally Posted By iamsally I too had a stroller stolen last spring. It did not ruin my trip but it sure was a major inconvenience.

When we explained the CM found a security person to walk me to the trams. A big help and a little Disney magic there. The guy walking me out said that teenagers will take them and push each other home in them!?!? So now I am unsure about taking a stroller in when I have a baby with me. But it is a long walk into the Parks.
