With this on the back, which side do you display?!!! This looked like fun, I'm glad you were able to buy it.
Nice! Disfriends to the rescue!My phone lit up with a text from @docsoliday1 saying he was in the area and was offering to pick me up and take me to Kidani! That would MORE than make up for lost time and save me 45 minutes, and quite possibly more.
XXX Resort??? That doesn't sound very Disney like!Also, I did talk to ME a day or so before I left and they did tell me I could have used the tags for Coronado... just to scratch off "Coronado" and write in "XXX Resort" in sharpie.
I don't think that will ever happen.You may not believe in miracles, but I am here to tell you one just happened. I completely caught up on the DIS and my "Watched threads" list is cleared out.
I can always go for that. Obviously my palate is on that same age level.When one is on Main Street and feeling that way, one stops at Casey’s for corn dog nuggets. It’s what’s done. There is rumor and debate over the new chicken variety, but they are still pretty good in my, at times, unrefined 3-year old palate.
Really looking forward to not having lids on cups. Honestly don't care about the no plastic straw thing, but not having a lid on my cup (or the kids') isn't going to be fun.
When I'm ready to feed my face, waiting isn't an option.Funny how I’m completely willing to wait 30 minutes for a better table to feed my face, but will hardly ever wait 15 minutes for a few rides or attractions.
Been there done that. Want to know some other tragic tales?It’s a tragic tale of phone vs. water
And they give away your table!!!!Loud
Average food
Long wait after ADR time
Reasonably priced
In the park
Dude... you have way too much time on your hands!You're welcome.
Got that list from Zsa Zsa Gabor's memoires, forwarded to me by Zoe Saldana (Guardians of the Galaxy) and proofread by Zooey Deschanel.
Wow... scary. I'm glad that it wasn't anything more major. Definitely scary and something you never want to have happen, but it sounds like the response was extremely good and she was in good hands.They quickly got a 5 lead on her, checked her blood sugar, took vitals, and did a good thorough assessment. Everything looked good and, eventually, it was determined she really didn’t need to be transported. She, understandably, was completely embarrassed and in the end we speculated that a recent change of her blood pressure meds, combined with the oppressive Florida heat and humiditiy she isn’t used to, the cocktail she had, the excitement and lack of rest created a perfect $hit$torm that led to the Great Monorail Platform Spectacle of 2019.
Cool!!! Definitely worth a trip down the rabbit hole for that. I can think of worse ways to waste 50 bucks at Disney World.Today, I was feeling rather impish and pleased with myself so was channeling my inner Tink, so that's what I blurted out. The artist picked up his sketching pencil and then spent the next 5 or so minutes drafting a really great Tink face. I was mesmorized as he finished up with his signature.
I like art.
Don't tell me what to like!I like to admire art and, like you, enjoy some styles and genres better than others.
I like art museums.
I have very little.I have some art.
Oh boy! Finally! A painting!...Other media, such as batik, carved wood, and ceramics, yes, but never a painting.
… er… nevermind, then.Techincally I still don't,
"compromise"... you have a funny way of spelling "cop out"One afternoon while sauntering through DTD Springs, (< there, a compromise on the name)
Very seldom have been in there,I wandered into The Art of Disney, as I've come to make a habit of.
Nope. I don't believe that for a second.(That's code for I'm getting old as dirt.)
Familiar with the name. Seen a fair bit of his stuff in catalogues and stuff.A Thomas Kincaid Galleries
Yep. Definitely a slippery slope, there."If I were to buy one of them, (knowing I probably can't afford it, but this is a fun game) which one would I choose?"
I would've picked Ariel of course... but I really do like the one you picked.I contemplated Ariel , but in the end thought Alice was the best one with the most detail from the story with a lot of content going on.
That's actually not bad at all!I asked the CM roaming the area how much they were, and she replied, "$50".
I clicked the link, but... had to look up what a "legacy artist" was... still not quite sure, really.
Holy smokes! Where do you put all that?????left the store to head for my dinner reservation.... s. Yes, I had 2. I take oink to the next level.
Pictures or it didn't happen.I mean, if I didn't have a picture, I'd have a hard time convincing you readers that this actually happened, right?
Yeah, just once... "I really hate this one."The standard, "Good choice!" was given in return
I like and identify with a lot of characters depending on my mood at the time, ranging from Sleeping Beauty every Monday morning
I can definitely see you as Tink.Today, I was feeling rather impish and pleased with myself so was channeling my inner Tink, so that's what I blurted out.
Cool!!The artist picked up his sketching pencil and then spent the next 5 or so minutes drafting a really great Tink face.
That photo in itself is a great keepsake.
I have a wonderful canvas repro proudly sitting on my bathroom window sill so I can see it a lot. Yes, I'm 52 with 5 kids.... I see it a lot.
Yep. NIce. Good choice.
And that just makes it even cooler.
XXX Resort??? That doesn't sound very Disney like!
And then she doesn't use any of them!Dude... you have way too much time on your hands!
Less on the old as dirt from your same age friend.......we just know how worthwhile our time is and ensure we spend it as meaningfully as possible.But life has a way of changing and taking things a bit slower is the new me. (That's code for I'm getting old as dirt.) Once overlooked shops, attactions, and entertainment options are suddenly the very things I seem to seek out nowadays.
Awesome! It is a beautiful piece and I am sure it is well loved.I like and identify with a lot of characters depending on my mood at the time, ranging from Sleeping Beauty every Monday morning, to Winnie the Pooh on Taco Tuesdays, to Ursula when my phone flips the camera to selfie accidently. Today, I was feeling rather impish and pleased with myself so was channeling my inner Tink, so that's what I blurted out.
1.) This whole experience sounds terrific....most especially because it was within a normal price range!!! This is outstanding value for anything even sort of authentic at Disney!
Like YMMV Your Mileage May Vary, MMMV My Mileage May Vary.......I made it up!
And there are more cats in it than we actually have!
What a lovely story about your Alice picture. That’s how I love buying art: not just something that looks nice, but something that has a memory attached. I love buying art on vacation as it is a perfect souvenir.
Do you remember my parents picture wall behind the dining table? Those were all from different vacations (and some otherwise memorable pieces). I hope your pieces is the start of a similar meaningful collection for you!
What a great photo!!
Of course you have a sick sense of humor, you're a nurse!!
This is such a pleasant way to spend some time in the Magic Kingdom. I had a great time doing it!
Ohhh definitely one of the best tables in house, but the room in general is pretty nice!
I'm drooling!
Your poor mom! I'm so glad she was ok, though, and it sounds like they gave her excellent and speedy care!
That's a compromise I can get behind!
How sweet of him, and what an extra special piece of artwork to have in your home! And really a fantastic price as well.
Yep, Liesa was right and you guys were wrong . It's me worrying about October of this year with my Mom. I worry about the same thing happening with her that happened with Liesa's mom. I'm not good in a crisis situation so something happening to my Mom on vacation is one of my worst nightmares.
I like it!
One of my favorite stores. Like you, most stuff is way out of my range but every once in a while I find something to take home that's a bit more reasonable.
I have a few of these canvas wrapped Thomas Kincaid pictures! Mine are a bit bigger than yours, maybe 12 x 12? I have Lion King, Dumbo, Pirates, Bambi, and a couple of others that I can't think of right now. My Mom purchased them for me as gifts over the years.
That was a very cool experience to read about!
Oh sure, I'm wrong. Like I haven't heard that a million times in 33 years of marriage.
Sheesh
Art? Who's Art? Art Carney?
Unless it falls outside the Captain Oblivious Law of Art.
That's pretty much been my experience when I wander through!
No, I mean it's $50 just to LOOK at it. You can pay me here or at the register.
Impressive...
You have to wonder if any of them ever say, "Ugh. I hate that one. So ugly."
I will readily admit, it's a tough choice and may actually flip it on occasion. The back is just too cool!With this on the back, which side do you display?!!! This looked like fun, I'm glad you were able to buy it.
Nice! Disfriends to the rescue!
XXX Resort??? That doesn't sound very Disney like!
Correct. It's never-ending. Ever.I don't think that will ever happen.
I can always go for that. Obviously my palate is on that same age level.
Really looking forward to not having lids on cups. Honestly don't care about the no plastic straw thing, but not having a lid on my cup (or the kids') isn't going to be fun.

Yes, I always get insurance on my phones and usually use it before the 2 year life span is up.
And they give away your table!!!!

Hi Liesa! I was so far behind as I was on a dis hiatus but now I am all caught up on this thread at least. I came back to the boards about a week ago, saw that it had been revamped and was too tired to figure it out so promptly closed out of it again until I was more awake and had patience to grapple with the changes.
The girls trip so far sounds amazing, saw tidbits on Facebook and it made me super envious!
The fainting episode with your mom sounds very scary. I would have panicked and forgotten all my nursing knowledge if that were my mom. Glad that you had good company and good CM's to come to your assistance.
Your Alice painting is beautiful. What a special purchase, especially it was signed and personalized for you.
Apparently, we are.
Oh, sorry. Are we not doing that?
Don't tell me what to like!
Still not doing that?
Sorry.
I have very little.
I see very little that I'm willing to pay for. And usually, what I do like is exorbitantly expensive.
Oh boy! Finally! A painting!...
… er… nevermind, then.
"compromise"... you have a funny way of spelling "cop out"
Very seldom have been in there,
but did with Elle, this last trip.
Saw a few things in there that intrigued me.
(This was the one in Epcot, though)
Nope. I don't believe that for a second.
Familiar with the name. Seen a fair bit of his stuff in catalogues and stuff.
Yep. Definitely a slippery slope, there.
I would've picked Ariel of course... but I really do like the one you picked.
I like the idea of Alice looking into the water and seeing her "looking glass" world below.
That's actually not bad at all!
I clicked the link, but... had to look up what a "legacy artist" was... still not quite sure, really.
Holy smokes! Where do you put all that?????
Pictures or it didn't happen.
Yeah, just once... "I really hate this one."
I'd pay extra for that.
I can definitely see you as Tink.
