Trip Report SummerPalooza: When 1 resort reservation morphs into 5 resorts

We have had a few trips this year that were odd for us. The trip where my family had to end their vaction but I stayed on for 3.5 more weeks. I didn't even book a return ticket. Never did that before. My April/May Flower Trip Report: https://forums.wdwmagic.com/threads/the-one-way-ticket.939721/#post-8162457

This report will start out mostly of semi in-the-moment of the day posts at least for the first half of 3 weeks as we all will be arriving at different points. Like the above report I am not overly wordy but enjoy posting photos of WDW and Food along with adult beverages. Sometimes a tad odd to me behaviors in the parks.

This trip kept expanding in days and as a result resorts this time for reasons I will get around to explaining later, for now mostly photo's of the day. Hope you enjoy.

EDIT: Most of these photos will be Apple Live photos for those of you with Apple devices.

Others close by are not.
Boat is fun inside

Nothing about what they did to the Empress Lilly is acceptable. My rule of first do no harm.

The views from up here are so beautiful.

At dusk the birds are very active and seem to have fun. Also see them flying over Space Mountain at dusk. On their way home to the former Discovery Island.

Explain to me how any person with a smudge of intelligence would believe an unfolded tank double stroller would fit as they tried to push it onto the single file escalator repeatedly. As if the escalator would magically become wider. Twit.

How do those people MISS the elevator nearby . . .

Crush is a hidden gem. As long as there are lots of small children for Crush to interact with there are lots of laughs to be had. Bonus real good AC and nice tall wide benches for adults

We watched the Jellyfish the entire ten minutes before crush.

Most of the stingrays are gone. Wonder what happened to them?

Whew I got to page 3! So sorry I am late. I forgot to check to see if you had put a TR up.

Hi!!! It’s been sporadic. More observations and heavier on photos. And even that more weird photos tan typical ones of the past.

The two rooms of queues when entering Thr Seas is rough. The first room was Originally for the Circlevision preshow long before Nemo invaded the Pavillon. So zigzagging

Now you just leave that empty queue and move to the next one. That one is really very dark for a queue.

Still have yet to bond with Nemo attraction but at least it leads to fishes and Crush.

Loving it! I will play catch-up after the storm passes us this weekend.

Sad this sign needed to be sunk.

By the looks of it many have been plucked.

Hmmm....doesn’t really resemble me.

Spaceship Earth continues to be glitchy. I was alone in my vehicle. My photo. Everyone else in our group photos worked. Been like this too long. Most times over last few years we have just had same standard stock photos. Upside the scaffolding has been removed from the big water leak that closed SSE last week.
