Having a great time, listening to The World Wide TOP 30 on da radio. Such a variety of this music. And even a track from Frozen II made it to this list! Cool!

^ LOL, when I first bought that, I also figured that "maybe 10 pairs" linked together, would make a good mini-omnimover, hmmm? I do like Tomica's TDR ride vehicle series. Another ride vehicle I really liked. -

Photo TR: Condor's Audacious Travels

Very nice editing there! Everything blended pretty good I thought. I was going to comment on the lady taking your food photo. It happened to me in DisneySea, back in 2011. I was taking a rest, sitting in the front of one of those "Main Street vehicles." They stay in place, but you can climb on or in them and just relax. This one was opposite Big Band Beat. A minute or so later, this little old woman climbs up next to me. She points to her and me - then to her friend taking the photo. Huh, I thought. I oblige. Photo is taken. THEN she motions to me to STAY THERE. And so, every one of her FIVE friends got an indi-photo with me, LOL! I had a big smile on my face afterwards, and sort of when 'huh' at the cultural moment shared with them. Awesome TR you've been posting, here! -

Oh my. My my my my my. -
I rode the trackless ride back when it originally opened (2006). And I was totally shocked that such a relatively small park would have one of these, much less afford one of these! Best surprise of my last visit there. Been too long. Must go back. EDIT: I just checked on who manufactured this particular trackless ride, and it turns out to be the same Dutch company that just completed SYMBOLICA in Efteling Park!

^ Count me so envious you live "so close to Broadway."

Just got this one via Amazon. Listening to it right now. My Birth Year's CD Series. Musicals that opened in "The Year I Came To Be", heh. Presented as a cabaret evening, with lots of interesting trivia about each musical. They have only a few more "years" available, but I am happy with my year's cd.

SPOILER ALERT!!!! ^ After 'he' planned to help 'her' out, I suspected something was up with 'him.'

Well, he did buy the souvenir Fuji-Q COKE bottle, too. And I still have my TDR 30th Anny COKE bttle, too! Not to mention an empty FUJI-Q Water Bottle as well. -
^ That's great! We really don't get many (if any) touring plays that are mainly in the U.S. I would welcome the change if Broadway Over Canada offered a play or two in the selections. A suggestion for a plussed up jukebox musical. Now that Jagged Little Pill is open, and the cd cast is a-may-ZING, does this one make it possible, to weave a proper Book-written-worthy musical, justifying the songs that are used, usually all of them...? >>> Adele's 21. She admits it was her break-up album. So...possible story in there? And it doesn't have to be biographical, either. Just a future musical thought. By the way, the current 3 CDs that are available right now from Broadway, are not original scores. Moulin Rouge!, David Byrnes On Broadway and Jagged Little Pill. And I go hmmmm, too. Awesome cast and sound to it all! I was astounded by this cast!

I've still got a few t-shirts to show here, but haven't taken photos....just yet. For now there's just A Few More Souvenirs, two of which you wouldn't really count....but I do. First is the two character 'hangers' I bought. The non-Snoopy one was from Knott's. Don't know why I really bought it. But I do like my sparkly things, heh. And I nearly forgot to pick up a "Mickey Mouse" in some form, somewhere. That one, I actually bought just as we were leaving Disneyland, for the last time/night before we left. Timing, huh? And the last two....we didn't discover we still had two bottles of water from the train, until we started unpacking. And we did eventually drink them up. But it was kinda fun to think we even brought "liquid souvenirs" back, too. I've done it with souvenir Cokes from Tokyo Disney Resort, truth! So... why not this, too? I must admit, that 'cat' looks kind of creepy, right now. Where they've ended up, for now. Ooooo Imported Water! And it was good, too! My bottled COKE for TDR's 30th Anny; and even a (empty) Fuji-Q water bottle on that 2013 trip! (o:

I just read on another site, that Zootopia ranks 2nd in Disney Animated Films that have hit the $1 Billion+ mark, world wide. Guess what's number 1 and 3? Of course, it's Frozen and (for now, till it probably passes Zootopia) Frozen II, I read. -
We just saw Knives Out on Monday. Really enjoyed it, especially with the twist at the end.
