Trip
Report to TDR, May 26 to 30

top notch!

Disney Resort Trip
FabianFan enjoyed two days at TDL last month
and took quantities of pictures too! This has a link to his
Flickr page you can peruse. With wonderful ride and character
pics, you won't want to miss this!
Plastic
flowers in DLP!!
Zarniwoop, our fine Finn, found faux flowers
in France! Disneyland Paris, that is... Now, everyone knows
what a stickler Disney is for real foliage, right? Well, this
is one place where, at least temporarily, that axiom may be
a bit bent.
Uncle
Mac goes to HKDL, May 27 & June 1
Another newer member, UncleMac, steps up to
write about his trip to HKDL, complete with awesome photos and
commentary. From the turnstiles to the final fireworks, this
is a truly terrific report and I may have a new favorite Uncle...
Its great to be back with you all again after having to take
a week off due to a broken pump on my computer's liquid cooling
system. Thanks to sir clinksalot for covering
this section for me last week! Now lets take a look at what's
happening this week. ~elly

for the price of one deal with Disneyland and the Angels in
1967. The price? Just $5!
As always, the topics of discussion in the Main Lounge are an
interesting mix! ~disneyballerina
Things
that aren't here anymore
Oh, I totally remember when going to Kinney Shoes to buy new
school shoes was a big deal. Who didn't want Wallabees?
Olympicnut shares an
excellent list of places and things now gone.
Things
That ARE Still Here (SoCal)
Point/Counterpoint: RetroMousie's
glass is half full. Here is an excellent list (with links!)
of fabulous places that ARE still here.
I
need major gift help.
BFJen asks for your
most ostentatious gift suggestions. It's not keeping up
with the Joneses, it's more like reciprocal gift-giving
with the Rockefeller family.
Baby
born twice. Wow...just wow.
It sounds like a headline from the National Enquirer or The
Weekly World, but it's actually a true story! Thanks, Tui.
Calling
All Teachers - When is school out?
GoofyWife is counting
the days until her trip to the Bahamas in July, and asks when
school is out for other teachers and school employees.
Our
McDonalds has made an Olympic menu
tassie from Toowoomba
(that's down under in Oz) opens this interesting discussion
about fast food around the world. The consensus seems to be
that the menu in Australia looks more appetizing than what's
on offer here in the United States. Well, everything but the
McAustralia: a burger with bacon, egg, and pineapple?
With Father's Day coming up, you just might be looking for
some new gift-giving ideas for dear old Dad. Instead of the old
stand-by (another necktie?!) how about trying something really
creative, like, perhaps, um... a new shirt! Not exciting enough?
How about a brightly colored new shirt? OK, you decide. ~db
Guys-What
color of shirts do you think look good on you?
Inspired by a recent clothes shopping excursion for her husband,
Ginarella asks the guys
what color shirts they favor.
Girls- Do you like wearing T-shirts?
Ladies, do you like to wear t-shirts around the house or out
and about? Ginarella wants to know!
Happy
Feet
Do you ladies get pedicures? Who out there makes sure their
feet are happy? wolfy999 recently got one done and her
feet couldn't be happier.
Wahoo
WA MC'ers meet for WALL-E!
MiceChatters are excited to see Pixar's latest film, Wall•E
and two meets are planned including a Washington meet-up with
tinkermonkey!
Nor
Cal Wall-E Meetup?
Not in Washington to see Wall•E? Maybe you're in Northern
California -- if so, OogieBoogie wants to meet up with
you!
