"Mind your speed as you go, Sheriff's old, but he's not slow"
True statement! Once I was driving that very same stretch of road. I was speeding and sheriff came flying out from behind a billboard and turned his lights on. At the time I was a poor starving college student and the last thing I could afford was a ticket. So I quickly devised a plan. I decided that since the sheriff was old he probably wouldn't be to fond of bees stinging him. Wouldn't like it one bit. So quickly I pulled my car over on that bank right there and jumped out of my car. I started flailing my arms about and ran in circles screaming "BEES!!! THERE EVERyWHERE!! SAVE YOuRSELF!!" Quickly the sheriff flipped a U turn and sped off in the opposite direction! I got off clean! My plan had worked! Moral of the story: Sherrif does not like bees, and watch Chris Farley movies, they'll save you every time. - Belleslibrary230.2 #1240 4-5-13 3:01PMLike(5) Reply

We had my infant grandson with us and they were telling us after the ride was up and going that my grandson had to sit on the seat by himself, not in his moms lap. He was an infant at the time and not capable of that. We wish they had told us before getting on it. He was in her lap before they even started it. We just giggle when we pass by it now.

It is called 10k: Run for Pink. It was a free download and basically tells you when to run and when to walk. You can listen to your own music. I am a beginning runner and needed a very straight forward app to tell me what to do and when. It doesn't track distance or anything, but I love it. - goofymom2boys 398.2 #336 2-28-13 10:15AM

I downloaded the C52K app in January and started then. I am not a runner, yet. It was hard to start. I have asthma (working through it) and my calves were killing me. I went to a local running store and got the "shoe dog". The right shoes make a difference. I also do yoga at the end each day and could live in downward dog:) All in all, getting better at it. Someone had told me to try a Zombie running app. I bought it, but am too chicken to do it.

Hi everyone!! Hope you're all having a magical day!✨ I'm beginning to plan a trip to WDW in March or April...coming from SoCal... Where'd you guys stay? Is a package deal the way to go? How many days does it take to see it all!? I've se More...
I go all the time. I stay 7 to 10 days as there are four parks and so much to see and do. Always stay at Polynesian close to Disneyland on Monarail and easy to get to Epcot. All others near by with great bus system. Always use Magical Express to and from airport was awesome however always take my own luggage coming and only check with them going otherwise long delay for getting bags on first night fyi. Always book through Disney. Fav restaurants: At Disney Cinderellas Castle for lunch book early reservations, Crystal Palace is fun character Dinner buffet or lunch book early too. Hollywood studios love Sci Fi Dinner theatre and 50's prime time cafe. Hollywood and Vine has great buffet witj characters Iike for lunch. Epcot my fav is Biergarten has buffet and fun show, Akershus is hard to book but awesome. You will want a park hopper ticket for sure. Animal Kingdom I found a half day park and often jump to another park mid day. Location is key in WDW as no park can you walk to really you rely on their bus system or monarail. Really think about which park you want to spend most time in then stay closest to it. You will need days to rest so at least 6 or more in my opinion to enjoy it all. Hope you have fun! - Redman86.8 #3188 9-17-12 3:52PMLike(2) Reply
