Watch yerself! It's 'Lil Buford's Magic Kingdom Adventure!

Just like original Brian and, later, MKT,
I'll be rhyming this journal to the best of my ability.

Our trip began on a trip down the Bee Line
Only to find the infamous road sign
I finally snagged a pic of this horrid sight
Just so I could shed some light:

 

[Buford]

But not all is a sad at Disney,
Except for some Cast Members from the CP

At It's a Small World, if you see a line. . .
It may be a Cast Member, who needs some refin(ing)!
(EMPTY ROWS??)

But not all CP'ers do a bad show
All of them here actually glow!

Mickey's Philharmagic is always a blast,
And a Stitch Encounter is coming up fast!

The Astro Orbiter, since August, hasn't moved
Which, to me, has ruined my groove.

 

[Buford]

Now some stories from some fine feathered friends
Who come from all Disney spectrums and ends

First up is Zazu
Who's smothered in "pooh!"

And the ducks Disney's abused
Mother and child, who've been quite used

And let's not forget a special duck
Who'd otherwise be running amuck

 

[J.E.Smith]

I take it Ursus couldn't make it, last I heard he was away
Unfortunate he couldn't join you on your trip that day.


Forgive me if I'm mistaken, It's only something I'm assuming
Can't wait to hear how our singin' bruins have been doing^_^

 

[Buford]

Sonny still plays at Cosmic Ray's
And I would have eaten there, if I had my way:

And I was abandoned at the CoP
Only a ripped curtain would I see!

I got a hold of One 'Lil Spark, our Southern Belle
Who, at Cinderella's Fountain, made me hold out the cell!

Over at Bears, they played to folk
And remember, don't eat, drink, chaw, or smoke.

 

[Buford]

While the folks took photos at bears

All we saw at the Tiki show were tears

This group of ladies missed the classic
And I don't blame the ladies, quite ticked.

The worst part, my family would agree,
Is our encounter with Goofy!

Cheap labor or bad day?
This Cast Member showed his dismay!

(To be specific, this CM was VERY draggy & unanimated! And I have no idea who that kid is. :wave: )

 

[Buford]

So, at the hub we watched two spectaculars
So bright and close, we didn't need binoculars

(alright, I'm tired :lol: )

After waving goodbye to our nearby Walt,
Whose classics right now remain in the vault,

I made it over to Casey's on Main Street
To get a call from Rob, the MKT!
Rob was at EPCOT, or so he boasted,
But it was at the Kingdom that I was hosted!

The refresh button I must constanly press
So I can see when he uploads the rest

Let me know when you are finished in time
It's kinda difficult always posting in rhyme

All done!!! Hope you enjoyed it.

 

[J.E.Smith]

Of course! Awesome pics^_^

Hope that tear in CoP gets repaired soon. Looks like the bears are doing just nicely. Where are those Donald statues from?

 

[Buford]

Bears are doing great. Max's eyes are half-closed, and Beulah's eyebrow is half-lowered but it's been like that since last year!! I reported it to the Cast Members through email, though. As for Donald, the copper one comes from the hub. . . the other two ducks are from Toontown from a playground my little cousin was playing in.

 

[One Lil Spark]

I LOVE it so far!!

Thanks for the shout out. :lol:

And yes it is true. I made him walk to the fountain for me.

Hehe, considering I got from Tomorrowland to Cindy's fountains in what, forty seconds? is pretty amazing. I guess I wasn't looking where I was going.

Should of been Iago:lol: You guys going into Tiki Room, now there's something you don't see everyday.

More eyebrow trouble at bears? Not much of a problem. I noticed Stage 2 Henry had a bit of trouble like that in 2000, but they got it fixed.

Either that or you body-checked a few strollers. :lol:

Great trip report!

I was actually there a week and a half before you, and I saw something very disturbing at the CoP...

First of all, during the performance, the house lights were on the whole time, which totally ruined the effect of the show. (House lights= lights above the audience).

Second of all, one of the times the daughter rotates (I think it was during the second scene, when she is the Statue of Liberty) the lights were still on the curtain, and when it turned, you could see what was beyond the platform...

It looked to me like a file cabinet, or power box, or something that did not belong there!!! At least, it should not be in the audience's view! I could totally see an electrical-looking sort of room, which was also lit up. Hopefully, I was the only one who saw that, my mom didn't see it...

 

[General Grizz]

That stinks. CoP needs to go down for a HUGE rehab.

And they better not use its state as an excuse to close it.

 

[TinkerBell9988]

Yes, the rehab is definetely needed. Some of the animatronics don't move the way they used to anymore...

Funny story about the Tiki Room, by the way. Those ladies look so nice! I could have imagined what they were thinking about the whole thing.
