And now the bad. One of these pictures is a bad thing about Disney. The other picture is a bad part of life. You will easily be able to figure out which picture is which!
If you know Maria at all, you know that this look on her face signifies disgust and impatience. She lets her feelings know in very small ways. It is in her eyes and you probably have to click on the picture to see it bigger. In one look she is saying, "This stupid French man has no idea how to get a Fast Pass for the Big Thunder Mountain roller coaster. I have been waiting behind this idiot for over 5 minutes and what I really want to do is rip the cards out of his hands and do it for him. Finally, this Disney employee is going to help, but I have still wasted precious Disney time waiting in line."
I don't complain about the French people that much because overall they are very nice people who enjoy a good meal and a nice glass of wine. The only problem is that they are somewhat annoying and they smoke a lot. No offense to all my French friends, especially Sophie. She is wonderful.
This picture has nothing to do with Disney but more to do with aging. Don't click on it and make it bigger. That might be too shocking! Isn't Bob's camera nice? It picks up every wrinkle, line and gray hair. What clarity. It doesn't look like it, but I am really having a good time. I am not a fan of Botox but this picture would make a really good "before" shot. Use your imagination as to what the "after" picture would look like!
Finally, there is an UGLY part of Disney. I don't have a picture of it because I don't think it is legal to take pictures of these guys that we see every time we are there. There are armed guards outside the gates near the parking lot and the train station. It is always unsettling to see these police carrying machine guns and pacing along the pathway. I am not sure about the reason or the need for this type of protection. I will keep Googling it to find an answer.
Anyway, we had fun and here is the best part. The kids don't know it yet, but our next Disney trip will be to DISNEYLAND HONG KONG in July!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Simon says, "terrorism" - Disneyland is a high profile location. The guards are anywhere where there is a lot of people or at the most famous monuments, etc. "Before 911 the US never had any terrorist attacks, but France has had plenty", Simon says.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you had a good time. I really need to take Alice. She's at that age where Mickey Mouse is her idol.
Thanks for making me laugh (your picture). You really are hysterical! I don't think you look bad. I have to say, I'm always amazed by my wrinkles.
