Pleasant temperature down there for a change.

For polar bears and Elsa maybe...

I guess 20 years ago when the Little Mermaid was released it wasn't until issue like it is today.

Ahem...

The Little Mermaid was released in 1989 and it's now 2019...it turns 30 this year.

Sorry, my job on this thread is to make everyone feel old.

And Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs . . .

47 degrees at Disney right now. It is March 6th. What the heck?

Before everyone gets ready for the end of the world. This is the time of year when I made about 95% of my WDW trips over the last 36 years. Let me rest your worries by letting you know that many, many times, this time of year, it has gotten that cold and much colder. That is the reason that they developed the plan to spray water on the oranges and have them freeze up so the crop wouldn't be ruined. It isn't all that rare. The warming aspect kicks in because it doesn't happen as often as it used too.

Its not as cold as Wisconsin has been.

At least Elsa provides more than cold weather and snow in Wisconsin. She founded a frozen Custard stand. The owners of a stand in Door County even had fun with the snow storm by claiming the snow storm provided them with shaved ice.

And Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs . . .

Snow White is a little Looney...I mean, she took an apple from an old lady she didn't know and also walked into a strange house where seven men lived and started cleaning it...I mean, if she's that nuts, stands to reason she'd think the cold was nice.

Thank you and yes carrots and Basin were both involved but not at the same time

Whoops!

Well here is what part of the news said,

"For those wondering why Florida might end up wrapped up in this announcement, it’s because things have supposedly gone very well as of late for the Disney’s Hollywood Studios version of the land. If sources are to be believed, Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge will open in Florida in September/October, with preview events set to start in late July. A lot still has to go right for this to happen, but it sounds likely.

Per Bob Iger, the Disneyland Park land will open officially in June."

There are aerial photos of the WDW land usually once a week. There is no way that it will be ready by then in Florida. They have buildings that haven't even built yet. I would bet the farm that if they announce anything at all, it will be strictly for Disneyland. I believe that the Sept. & November date is much closer to the actual, Even then they have to get a hustle on.

It's getting the new entrance first...should have new security procedures before SWGE opens.

Well thank you. That was in a hot tub this past weekend when it was about 12 degrees outside, because, you know, I always do such sensible things.

Bluck! Years ago when modern tech was AIM my Mom stalled me for when I was online on the computer. Truly I’d be checking my appointments and emails and up would Pop Hi Gabe. What are you doing? What are you doing? How are the kids? Ultimately I blocked my own Mother. Felt bad but it had to be done.

Makes me grateful that the worst thing my grandma does is post bad pictures of me on Facebook...I have timeline review turned on so that if it's REALLY bad, my friends don't see it.

Although there was one time she was taking pictures of me drinking before I was 21...we had to outright tell her not to post the pictures on Facebook or else they definitely would have ended up on Facebook.

He's giving up TV and donating $50?!! Will he succeed in these lofty goals?!

This is a lot lower than last year

He had $6.80 in his piggy bank, he’ll have to earn the rest. I’m assuming he’ll lose another tooth before it’s due, so the tooth fairy might help as well.

Disney Junior shows.

I shouldn't know that. Why do I know that????

Thank you. That explains why i didn’t know who those were. Can honestly say I haven’t ever watched Disney Junior Shows.

And I don’t know why you know that either??? Why indeed ????

Well, that does semi-explain the color of your skin. Or you have become an alien.

One neat fact about Sophia, the writer/creator is a dad of 2 boys, no daughters, just thought it would be a good show that girls as well as boys may enjoy. I watched a special on it a few years ago, when T was still in the Disney Jr phase.
I think he’s the same writer for Elana as well.

Thank Goodness my Mom doesn’t know anything about Facebook. She loves to tell stories that she greatly embellishes about her Grandchildren and my Sis and I. Sometimes they are not embellished they are outright fictional.

My children are adults so I have zero opinions about Sophia. It is nice though that T enjoys watching Sophia. Is it something he does himself or when his friends are over?

I watched some of the shows when it was Playhouse Disney. Bear in the Big Blue House, PB&J, Rollie Pollie Ollie...and then I can tell you the shows my brother watched...Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Handy Manny, Special Agent Oso (oh gosh, that one was annoying). I thought Little Einsteins was cute, but he never agreed.

But I have no one around who is the right age for it now, so I have no idea why I can still tell you the names of shows that are on it now. I certainly can't tell you anything that's on the main Disney Channel, besides Andi Mack because my cousins like that one.
