I chose "Bambi" because it's everything I love and hate about animated movies with animals in them - killer cuteness, followed by the "fist of sadness" that creeps up and squeeeeeezes your heart so that you're fighting off tears so hard that you can't breathe, and all for a stupid, fictional, moving drawing of a baby deer!!! Gah! Damn you Disney!!!!!

That is very sweet. Bambi breaks your heart every time...., I chose this clock as I have only recently purchased it for a birthday gift for my eldest sister, she loves Micky Mouse. It is a surprise for her and as Mary(sister). Thinks an Ipad is something you would put over an injured eye I think the secret is safe. Jennifer

Love the tour guide outfit, and you are so young and pretty :) And so is your sister - your dad must have been terrified when you two were teenagers!

Love Dory!! Val, take a pic of your puzzle! We have a vacation place in Eastern Tennessee. We have done a million puzzles there!! Family fun!

A story... I had the privilege to take a two person tour one day. A mother and her 30-ish yr old son. He was a "wheelchair". That's what they said way back then. Pitiful with everything I've been thru recently! Anyway, our last attraction together was Its A Small World. You get in these boats and see the audio-animatronic characters from around the world singing and moving to the song. So the ride was over and the mom was having difficulty getting her son out of the boat. The boat was lower than the platform. So, I decided I could help! (If you know me, then natch that is what I do best!!). Anyway, I discern that his leg is stuck. Soooo, I take his leg and help it onto the platform. Onlyyyyy, his leg came out into my hands!!!!!!!!!!! I freaked out!!!! He had a prosthetic!!! They were cracking up!!!! They were awesome!!! However, I'm pulling your leg, just like I pulled yours!!! Nah, it really happened!! :)

I have another take I will share a bit later on!!

Carolyn.
I love the tour guide outfit.

Val,
One of my favorite Disney movies.

And OMG, Bambi still makes my husband cry. He was a hunter, but his first time out with his grandpa, had the site on a deer and cried, "gramp, I can't shoot Bambi"

And BTW I am just Goofy!

Ha!!! Young and pretty was a lifetime ago! Lizzie is still pretty but older than me!!!! Dad had his hands full with Lizzie, but I, natch, used to be perfect! That doesn't get you very far in the long haul, though!!! :/

Bwaaaahahaha! Sounds like a National Lampoon movie! :D GC: EyeC999 Level 85

I was the Poster Child!!! :). Hahaha! That scared the c€Â¥p out of me!!!!! Disneyland even says in the TG Rulebook-don't help anyone out of a boat at Its A Small World!!!!!!! They were the best though! They laughed their way thru the whole thing!!!

Yes, it does! Aaakkkk. you didn't get fired for tearing off some guys leg! GC: pristoph ......... HD Level 52 (making candy!!)......DV Level 32

I thought I was going to get fired! But they wrote a positive comment card on their way out of the park!!! So sweet!!!!

Donna, you can be Goofy all you want as long as your hubby isn't Mini!!!!! Oops, I mean Minnie! Stupid spell check!!!!!!!! :).
 
Ok! Here is another Tour Guide tale! I had a "single" which means only one person on my tour. I go out to the spot and it's this dude! Italian guy, maybe 28 to 30. I was around 22. Dude starts thinking we are on a date!! He starts to get closer to me! The first ride is the Disneyland Railroad that circles the park. Next ride is Pirates of the Carribean! Those dang ride operators put us in the back of the boat!!!! Dude is thinking "nice and cozy, dark and romantic"! (Or however you would say that in Italian!!). He starts scooting closer to me. Well, fortunately, part of my costume is my riding crop!!!! I stick that baby out to my left side to show my boundary line!!!! He was so bummed!!! About two weeks later, I got a package at Guest Relations. A silver necklace and some licorizia!!! From dude!!!!!! Lol!!!!
 
OK, 2 things:
1. What's this "natch" reference mean? I keep seeing it, but can't figure it out...
2. I did, however, get the whole "Mini"- "Minnie" thing, and you just kill me! Lol!
