Trip Report Bach to the Future!

When this trip report hits 88 miles per hour, you're gonna see some serious...dog poop!

For now, lets crank the engine on this report and warm it up!

This trip has been rescheduled several times over the  past 8 months, but now the  future holds a visit to WDW! And my trips dont run on regular gasoline. They require something with a little more kick: DOGS!

Joining me this trip is, Bach the Belgian Malinois!

He is a 1 year old Malinois and is training for service work. Above he is with my assistant trainer Elisabeth whi he LOVES dearly. We've worked with him since he was a puppy and she is imprinted on him.

He likes me too lol!

Bach is also quite the ladies man as he regularly hangs out with bith my female Malinois, Akira and Edith

As with ither dogs ive taken to train at WDW, this will be a wonderful experience of exposure amd adventure for him!

And in a stunning turn of events, there will be a (human) lady joining me this trip! Could my wife finally be joining me on a trip??? Nope! But her and I do have a December trip already planned. More on that later.

For this visit, ill be joined by...my sister!

I had to screenshot this picture of us because I dont have any in my phone, which justifies this trip together as we can make some good memories and get lots of pictures!

My sister is a VERY busy business woman running a construction development company and I have a small business myself so we don't get much time together aside from family events. But we bith love Disney and when I asked if she'd like to join me...she said yes!

For anybody new to my trip reports, im a fairly simple person. I train dogs, I like whiskey and white v neck tee shirts and certain Disney slang terms make me puke in my mouth.

Now lets get to the fun stuff!

Where: we will be staying at a resort that has yet to be given any slang names that make my lunch come back up and is also my new (low key) favorite resort that @Tuvalu likes to pretend was her new (low key) favorite resort first ! Wilderness Lodge!

When: Soon. Very soon.

Ill be heading down a day early and staying at Destino Tower for a night then over to WL where my sister will join.

Shes very excited for Food and Wine. And im very excited to simply return and have fun with my big sis!

Ill do my best to not be a slacker and post some details later today!

Seeing the back side of Everest is like seeing the back side of water

Ya it was odd, but a beyyer view than the parking lot lol

My 100% Grade A smart *** self would enthusiastically ask “where?”


Clearly people don’t know ball


May your tolerance of the unintelligent folk persevere


Godspeed

Im starting to have fun with it. I will reply with, "hes a cocker spaniel " and ither random breeds. The looks they give are fun to see

Bach is so photogenic.

He seriously is! Lots more pics on the way!

Canada pavilion.

Cool shirt.

Correct! And ya, Im glad I found the shirt. Its cotton, not the new "knuflex" or whatever material they use that feels like.cheap rayon.

 

[wdisney9000]

That shirt looks very similar to my new prosthetic leg.

Sweet leg!!

We started this morning off with a nice and early walk around the resort.

I had not purchased lightning lane for the day. The plan was to just relax and takenit slow. After our walk and I showered up it was only 730 am still so I figured we would rope drop MK and just pop in for a short visit

We chose people mover over Space Mountain

It stopped in the tunnel and the lights came on. I feared an evacuation was approaching but within a few minutes we were moving

 

[wdisney9000]

The park officially opened and while the masses ran to Tron and Tianas, we took things nice and slow

Noticed this as we passed by

These huge fans were a welcomed breeze

We took the bypass around the portrait room as people usually step on the dogs tail and I didnt want our day to start out with someone loosing an appendage, even tho Haunted Mansion would be the most appropriate place for such an event

I totally blew it on the ride Pic

Ran into a fellow pup on tje way to the dogg relief area

Looks like you nailed it to me...

Enjoying the trip report!

 

[luvinthemajik]

I was going to say that about the one with Walt and Bach together!!

Edited to add: my heavens, every photo is a HIT!!

Me too, I'm loving all the pics, Bach is a photogenic sweetie, 9000, you're pretty alright yourself,

Couldn't agree more, on both accounts

Yesterday ctd

I recently lost my sun glasses, and by "lost", i mean my wife told me to set them on the table when we were at a brewery because I had them resting on my head and she always tells me it will bend the frame if I do that to which I reply that I think the ray ban people account for people doing that and allow for some flexibility. Nonetheless, I lost the debate and put them on the table and forgot to grab them when we left. I figured id get a new pair before Disney but had not done so yet. Sooo.

I was on my way to PoTC and saw it went down so I hopped into sunglass hut to get a new pair. Do I look cool now, Vincent?

And after shopping, Pirates was back up!

You can barely see Bach. Ill need to place him on my left side next time we ride.

As i mentioned prior, my plan this morning was to just pop into MK for a brief visit and head back to the room and beat the heat. I was gonna head out after Pirates, But the opportumity arose to ride 7DMT amd of course I couldn't let it pass by!

The man next to me was great. We both were loud and laughing throughout the ride. We had a brief stall at the end scene and I noticed people are now throwing hair ties on this ride just like on Everest. I for one like the hair ties but I know others cant stand it.

There was more up the track but I didnt get a Pic

I retrieved Bach from the kennel and he thanked the CM for taking care of him.

Fun fact: theres a staircase in that room and they told me it goes up to a bridge that allows them to cross over to the other side of the attraction safely.

We caught some piano action on our way to The Emporium. He was playing the star wars cantina song.

He was amazing. When he finished the crowd gave him a loud round of applause.
A client who recently trained a dog for worked at the Emporium so we got a pic to send to them

Yesterday ctd..

We left a very hot and humid MK and was time for a dip in the pool. Bach found the shade under the chair and relaxed

It was so nice to cool off in the pool and then catch some sun for my pale Irish skin. I laid out for appx 15 minutes and wrapped it up, lest I get the sunburn!

Showered up at the room and fed Bach then headed out on a quick mission befire the rain came in.

My goal was HS but I hopped on the Epcot bus since I was able to snag a Remmy LL. The clouds were looming overhead

Hit the skyliner after Emmyto get to HS

I was also able to get a Runaway Railway LL so I was hoping to head there first, but...

The rain, rain rain came down down down. This picture doesnt do it Justice. It was pouring. I made it to Brown Derby but had to duck in even tho I was so close. It was raining that heavy and I would have been soaked.

It let up for a moment and we made a dash and got there

When we exited and it had let up so I finally attended to the mission at hand! My wife wanted a new 709 patch from the outpost in Batuu. The one she has is wearing out.

We did make it to the shop but they no longer carry the patch. Shame. And then the rain started back up again and we were stuck

We made short runs all the way to the connecting corridor back to Streets America where I could get a poncho. I purchased one amd we headed out of the tunnel and it was still pouring.

Grabbed a beer at Baseline and the rain had stopped by time we left.

One last stop on our way out to grab a surprise for C (my wife)

I got her the park exclusive Minnie Pandora charm and the new Dumbo charm

We hit the bus, Bach passed out and I started to dry off

As crazy as the evening was with all the rain we had a really fun time!

 

[wdisney9000]

Back at WL and I hit Territory Lounge for some whiskey! I went with tje National 95, which seemed to be a whiskey drink

Heres what was delivered lol

The sparkling brut was the dominant flavor. It was decent but I wouldnt order it again. I was about to order a proper whiskey but my sister text that she was here!

We met at Geyser Point and ordered some drinks

Caught the water pageant

Boch caught a nap

We ordered the charcuterie flatbread. It was absolutely delicious

There was a guy in pajamas and no top who came out to see the water pageant lol

We actually didnt get any pics together. We were jsut chatting away and had a great time. We headed back to the room for a good night's sleep after.
