robbalvey Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 Hey everyone! So I'll keep this brief since it's late and I want to post a few photos.... We're in Florida for baby Kristen's first ever Orlando trip! While we know she won't remember ANY of this, it sure is going to be fun showing her all the photos and videos in a few years! Anyway, we'll update this thread as much as we can each day, but for now, he's photos from our visit to Universal Orlando today! Day One - Universal Orlando (See Below) Day Two - Magic Kindom Day Three - Epcot --Robb kidtums_first_ride.zip Download KidTums' first ever ride video! kidtums_first_ride.wmv KidTums' first ever RIDE!!! And we have video! (downloadable version at the bottom of the update) All the olive oil you can shake an Italian at! Thanks everyone for reading today's installment. We should have more tomorrow! Of course we have to end the night at a new Carrabbas credit! ARMATRON!!! ATTACK KIDTUMS!!! I always liked the queue to the ride. It's very "old school and retro." Kind of like Jeff Johnson! Erik blasts some aliens....huh? What! Dude, give me a break! It's freaking LATE, ok. Sorry that caption sucked. YOU come up with a better one. *sigh* New Simpsons shakey ride goes here. "Hey Barry! Can we get a fastpass for Back To The Future?" Make sure you get whatever Back To the Future ride stuff they have while supplies last! "I'm checking out her AWESOME rack! Oh, wait....this is a KidTums themed update...I.... um....I'd like 2 milks and a nipple, please." Forget Zorro! It's all about his chick! Hey Erik, what exactly are you looking at? Scary giant blue bald men with multi-colored exploding water have taken over!!!! The final remains of "Nick Studios" because..... "The girl in the plastic bubble." Uh, oh...it's raining....time to put the plastic thing over your head (kids, don't try this at home!) Gotta love the "glutton pass!" We'll get you on One Fish, Two Fish when you're a little older. Yay! It's KidTums first "adult sized ride!" (watch the video for more!) Hey now this looks like a ride that is "KidTums Friendly!" While Elissa rides, KidTums and I hang out.....in the pub! Remember Kristen, drink responsibly! OMG! *TWO* Signature Shots in a row. Rollermandan will be very upset. Grrrr..... Signature shot of "The Wall!!!" Bah! Fire Dragon! You're overrated!!! Mmmm....loop-dee-loop I know I'm in the minority on this one, but Ice is really awesome and it was giving KICK ASS rides today! Yeah, B&M goodness for Elissa and I....soon, KidTums...soon! The room of hot death skulls is pretty cool too. Ice is my favorite of the two dragons, and I've always liked the "ice room" part of the queue. Time for some "baby swap madness" on Dueling Dragons! "Mommy, I really love this Balsamic Forumla!" Everyone gets to eat at Mythos! First stop....Mythos! Even without Balsamic Chicken, this place still kicks ass! "KidTums, you've been to Six Flags, been to Valleyfair, and now you're ready for the BIG TIME parks!" Yay! Here we are at Universal! KidTums and mommy ready to take off. Fortunately for us (and everyone around us) Kristen slept the WHOLE flight! KidTums has got her plane ticket and ready to go through security! (and yes we took her OUT of the car seat before the x-ray machine!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goliath513 Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 I still think Universal made a big mistake by taking out Back to the future. That was such a great ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMAN962 Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 Hahahaha, nice TR! All of the KidTums, and signature shot captions are hilarious. If you're still there...have a good rest of your trip! -Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyblackjack Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 Looks fun. I just missed you guys. I'll down there May 24th - June 1st for my first ever visit to Orlando. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCTfan Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 If you all visit Animal Kingdom at all during your trip down to Florida, be sure to check out the 4pm parade (either Friday or Saturday). Everyone's favorite stilt walker will be in it! Its great to see KidTums starting early! She'll be a coaster enthusiast in NO time. I bet by month 7, she'll be riding hands up! Haha!

arrowfanman Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 I'm so jealous of Kristen! I'm also so jealous of Zorro! Anyway, I hope you guys have lots of fun! Elissa, ride all the rides double, for last October, will you? Especially good tower and no-airgate Space. -Jahan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbpia Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 What a great 1st ride! Although I still think the infant ocean would have been better. Have a great time. Ron "Can I have Kristens frequent flier miles?" Patton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarryH Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 Great PTR! Silly boy, you don't need a FP for BTTF. Use the single rider's line! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CycloneMan Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 I took my little sister on her first ride when she was only a few months older than Kristen. It was a Miner Mike at a local indoor amusement park (Kids N Action). The funny thing is, they let me take her on, and I was 5. Now, she's an enthusiest. 11 years old and 78 credits! Anyway, back on topic. Great photos, as usual, and I really like the photos of the queue to DD. -Dainan "Still needs to get to Universal" Rafferty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubba83 Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 Pft, her rack isn't even that nice! Which Seuss book is KidTums' favorite? I've got money on One fish two fish red fish blue fish. Anyone wanna take that bet? Yeah, I'm hiding from the beer thread because I didn't take pictures of my microbrewery experience yet again. I am so fired as Derek and Heath's apprentice.

Homer Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 It was raining in Orlando? (To clarify, Florida is in the middle of a really huge drought that are sparking out of control wildfires with no end in sight). And it looks like you two are raising KT to become the biggest credit whore since Jeff Johnson, great job! Nice TR so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfc Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 Hmm--from the puffiness of Zorro's face, I'd say he's been making good use of the "glutton pass." Sheesh! Kristen has a ride credit that I don't have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
