Barry: " Oh Ryan I love your 4 chins " Ryan: " OMG dont hug me!!! "

The parrot its called Jose Carioca and its from Brazil. On the movie theres a part dedicated entirely to Brazil and includes parts about the Carnaval from Rio de Janeiro and Carmen Miranda (the girl with fruits on her head) sings to Donald.

Oh Ive always loved the Goonies movie, and this figures look alot like the actual actors.

Panchito is Mexican!!!!! Not from Spain. Its a mexican fight rooster.

From www.wdwmagic.com I think it sounds great, mostly because Ive always been a Three Caballeros Fan. But Im going to miss the "El rio del tiempo" name.

Awesome pics tnks!

Part 2: Fat Tuesday or as we call it here "Martes de batalla de flores" (battle of flowers tuesday) Well yestardays parade started at 12 am. We wanted to arrive early because as it was the last parade we knew that its was going to be packed, but we didnt expected what we saw. So 9:30 am we were arriving to Paseo de Montejo to take a spot but.... It was already full!!!! everyone arrived around 7am!!!! that was TOO early for me. But we got a good spot between the seats that where there and a really nice guy let me seat on the top bech so I had a relly great place to take pics. The parade started at 12 and first was the float of the Carnaval Queen. Shes called Silvia, but everyone knows her as "La chiva" from Big Brother. Can you belive she has a 3 month old son??? They they giving away lots of Coca-Cola Stuff and Carnations ( yes they give flowers today ) Another Coca-Cola float The kids that were also king and queen of Carnaval. Look at those outfits!!! Some are really amazing. And heavy!!! Dance dance dance This dancing groups are called "Comparsas" Some comparsas are really huge and they change their costumes every year Hes is Marcelo Sanguinetti, but we know him as "Jacarandoso". Hes the only one that has been named king of carnaval twice 1980 and 2000. he dances on the parade each and every year. With new and bigger costumes. Its looks a lot like the costumes on Rio de Janeiro´s Carnaval More dancing comparsas Samba dancers The girl and man on this float are really famous Soap Opera actors here in mexico. He´s Sebastian Rulli and my girl friends where melting for him and asked me to take him pics. One of the most beautiful girl on the parade Isabel Madow. another famous TV actress This Comparsa was themed like the Chinese Circus. Really awesome costumes And here they are: the hot godess from Superior beer brand floats. More free stuff. A friend of mine loves her. The last two floats of the parade And the pared ended at 2pm . We were really tired and starting to get a sunburn but were had a great time. After this I returned home to sleep but my friends stayed until 7pm to atend to some concerts there. But it was too packed for me. Well with this Carnaval was oficialy over until next years. It was really a fun time. I hope you liked the report. comments and questions are welcome. Joel

Hello TPR people. Happy Mardi Grass. Well today its the last day of Carnaval time here in Mérida. But we had an amazing weekend full of parades, partys, free stuff, beer and food. The Carnaval here in Mérida started the past Thursday and ended today and everyday we have a HUGE parade on our main avenue and into downtown and lots of people dances and trow beeds and free stuff from the floats. Its really a great time to have fun with friends and family. To go dance on the streets and meet a lot of mexican tv celebritys. Well lets start with the pics. (I only took my camera to yesterdays and todays parade.) Yesterday ( Monday ) was the day dedicated to our traditions. So almost everyone on the parade was dressed with our traditional outfits and danced "Jaranas" (our traditional music) The pared started at 7pm but we (me, Paz and Mayte) arrived at 5:30 to get a good viewing spot but.... we were not the only ones that arrived early After looking for a spot we only got a little corner on one side of this stage They put lots of stages for musical groups. Here I am with Paz waiting for the parade to start And this is me and Mayte Yes they are sisters. Lots of more people started to arrive A random but traditional Cotton Candy vendor This is the house that was behind the stage. Really beautiful, its called "Quinta Montes Molina" The first float arrives and its the one from the Coca-Cola Company. This year the Carnaval is has a "Circus from the World" theme. So all the floats are shaped into that. The big float. The girl on front is the Queen of the Carnaval. She was the winner of Big Brother Mexico reality show and shes from my city. A girl dressed with a Terno (the traditional outfit) As I said on another report those dresses are really expensive, like 1000 dollars each, because they are hand made. Another float from Coca-Cola Traditional carriage Girls dancing a mayan song. A boy. Lots of "Jaraneros" A girl with a beautifull dress. WOW a lot of kids Cookies!!! Really they are cookies. A local brand of cookies. Their float. Its almost a tradition that a lot of guys dress as girls on the parade. The "gremios" a traditional Catholic asosiation of people. They hand made those banners. Guys from my University. Little guy and little girl. They are so cute!!! Dancing the "cabeza de cochino" (pigs head) And some of them dance with a bottle of beer on the head. A gril with a wedding Terno. Hot girls on the Corona beer brand float. This grils dress was made entirely with palms. OMG Robb??? Elissa??? What are you doing on the parade??? And now let me introduce to you the Godess. The Superior beer brand had a float with gorgeous girls dressed as mayan, greek, indian and roman godess. The mayan godess possing for me. And the parade ends. Its started at 7:30 and ended at 9:30. So two hours of parade. And we got a lot of free stuff and beads. Well this was last nights parade. Ill be posting todays pics this night. Thanks for reading and commenting Yours truly Joel

It absolutely makes sence to add them to the ride. Because Pancho Pistolas is a mexican fight rooster and I think its the only mexican Disney character. The other bird is called Jose Carioca and its Brazilian. for me it makes sense to put them in the ride and ill be glad to ride it when I get to WDW. panchito.bmp The only mexican Disney character.

Happy Birthday Forums!!!!! Tnks to Robb and Elissa for this amazing coaster site that allow us to meet crazy coaster fanatics from all over the world!!! Hope we can have this forums for another 20 years more. Joel " you are all awesome" Saury

I bet she eated an old rich man and thats how she really died.

I have to... bump.bmp

here are some of my personal favorites: this one was taken during the Via Crucis last Holy Friday. She was playing the role of Veronica, the girl that cleans the face of Jesus while he was carring the cross. I really love the expression on her face. She was really into her acting. And now some flower pics taken on the Mayan riviera

Oh Allibuns Im so jelous that you saw submarines backstage. Tell us all about it please. Joel "Disneyland in 2008" Saury

^ awesome!!! I would love to be a performer on a Disney parade!!!

OMG Im so excited about this!!! Im so going to be at the midnight sale at Downtown Disney at Orlando, cause, yeah Im going to be there!!!!

First- I, personally, dont think that Harry Potter is a childrens book. It has some very dark things in it. Dont get me wrong, I love the Harry Potter series, but I think its more for teens and young adults. After saying that, most of the actual Harry Potter fans are children, so, I think that just for the actual readers to get to be, lets say 25??? we have some good 15 years. So I think that its going to be a good long term add to IOA. Second- seeing the huge level of detail that Lost Continent actually has I can assure that Harry Potters Island will be also really detailed and cool. Third- I dont think they will dare to touch Dueling Dragons. After all this I can say that Im excited about Harry Potter being added to a theme park.

OMG OMG OMG a Mexican Flag I will buy you a taco at Epcot for that!!! Dude awesome as always. LMAO at that kid trying to score with the tv. Keep them coming. Joel " for the Mexican flag " Saury

OMFG looks really scary but also fun

Today I had the new Coca-Cola Zero for the first time. I really hate the "light" flavor on all the light drinks, but I really liked this one, cause it tastes like a regular Coke

Feliz cumpleaños!!!! Now you can legally drink here in Mexico Just cross the border and I buy u a beer Have a great day.

Oh lots of lamp post yes, but they are so pretty when lit up. Ive seen pics . Nice PTR
