Mickey Mic - May 26, 2004 - Disney in Heat and Crowds

21:30:33 [BetsyAnn] So why go to Disney in the heat and crowds of summer

21:30:35 [KLF] Definatly alien. I'll do it next time around

21:31:13 [MikeS] BA....'cause everything is close to 100% up and running.

21:31:17 [Jimbolini1963] wonder if I offended DisneyPam with the double play call

21:31:23 [KLF] Because Disney in the Heat and Crowds is better than no Disney at all

21:31:41 [KLF] That being said I avoid it at all costs

21:32:04 [BetsyAnn] I like both of those reason - I do DL in the middle of the summer cause I just have to be there on my B-day!

21:32:11 [MikeS] Summer heat is easy to handle...just need to plan.

21:32:20 [DisneyPam] I say only go in the summer if you have no other choice.

21:32:25 [KLF] Except late august. Thats worth the heat because all the kids are going back to school and its relativly slow

21:32:38 [Jimbolini1963] I spent my 24th birthday in VA

21:32:52 [MikeS] I'm going 8/12-8/22

21:33:08 [BetsyAnn] And to be honest I like DL better when it is a little crowded

21:33:13 [Jimbolini1963] cool Mike

21:33:17 [Tink1] 8/25-9/1. have to go to the earmarked conference

21:33:22 [KLF] lat day is my B-day, Mike

21:33:38 [Tink1] doing DCL the 8/26 -8/29 sailing

21:33:44 [KLF] Say What, BA?

21:33:48 [MikeS] 8/20 is DW's birthday...her first in WDW.

21:34:08 [KLF] Cool

21:34:08 [DisneyPam] ooh...can I come too, Nanc?? Pretty please?? with sugar on top??

21:34:20 [Jimbolini1963] Vancouver 9/20-30; WDW 12/8-15

21:34:21 [BetsyAnn] There is not much better than a Disney park on your B-day!

21:34:46 [KLF] Sounds like a rough job trip Tink. I'll be glad to fill in for you.

21:34:56 [Tink1] LOL. wish you could Pammy.

21:35:13 [Tink1] the girls are all coming as well

21:35:15 [BetsyAnn] DL has a more magical feel for me when there are more people around - it can be a little dead feeling when it is empty!

21:35:15 [MikeS] Sometimes restaurants give you free dessert on your Bday.

21:35:16 [Jimbolini1963] I can pay it off before I leave. :-)

21:35:49 [MikeS] That's the best way Jim.

21:36:03 [Jimbolini1963] I get free dessert at Lone Star on my birthday

21:36:05 [DisneyPam] awww....no fair. :( Don't you need me as your local touch or sumfin??

21:36:22 [MikeS] Biergarten, 12/7, 6:30 P.M. think about it.

21:36:28 [DisneyPam] well, maybe if they have a good FL ressie rate I can convince a friend to go....

21:36:42 [DisneyPam] ewww..yuk Mike. :(

21:36:43 [Jimbolini1963] I arrive 12-8

21:36:43 [MikeS] Pam...ya gotta deliver Dolly ;)

21:36:43 [KLF] He said beer

21:37:01 [MikeS] I meant 12/8 jim.

21:37:02 [BetsyAnn] You got to get the button for her, MikeS -- I had so much magic wearing my button - a solo boat at SW and a chorus of Happy B-day from the CM's - a cut in line on Indy, and my favorite a handful of free lighted necklaces

21:37:25 [DisneyPam] KLF - beer = good, biergarten restaurant = gross

21:37:49 [DisneyPam] * DisneyPam got free ice cream, a phone call from goofy and lots of other stuff on her b-day

21:37:55 [Jimbolini1963] cool is the ps in your name?

21:38:00 [MikeS] Yeah...front of the line a few places for me...free dessert....Dapper Dans singing Happy Birthday....definitely a button.

21:38:18 [MikeS] Haven't made it yet....gonna do the CP package.

21:38:35 [KLF] Biergarten goes right along with staying cool in the summer Disney trips

21:38:53 [Tink1] just looked, Aug hours not up yet

21:39:02 [MikeS] Ya gottaq be an early riser to deal withthe summer heat.

21:39:43 [Jimbolini1963] 4:00 am early enuf?

21:39:54 [BetsyAnn] I agree with you Mike - that is why WDW is too hard in the summer for me!

21:40:00 [MikeS] Yep...getting up at 4 tomorrow.

21:40:04 [KLF] I drink atleast one quart of water an hour, so does everyone else with me. Thats how I beat the heat.

21:40:41 [MikeS] KLF....I have a Dole Whip once an hour when in TMK in the Summer.

21:41:03 [KLF] That'll do it too Mike

21:41:06 [Tink1] of course you beat the heat! your in air conditioned bathrooms after all that water! LOL

21:41:15 [BetsyAnn] Water is a must and Dole Whip can't hurt either!

21:41:25 [KLF] That too

21:41:37 [Tink1] ::grin::

21:41:40 [KLF] I know where all the bathrooms are

21:41:43 [Jimbolini1963] I want to do Whispering Canyon on my trip, too

21:41:46 [MikeS] Smoothies help too.

21:42:10 [MikeS] Haven't done Whispering Canyon in at least 7 years.

21:42:16 [Jimbolini1963] tropical colada @ cbr

21:42:22 [KLF] I go for Frappacinnos now that they have them all over the parks

21:42:38 [BetsyAnn] Never been to WL at all

21:42:46 [DisneyPam] ROFL Tink

21:42:52 [KLF] I have a seperate Frap fund

21:43:05 [MikeS] KLF....can you get them at the Fountain View Express in EPCOT?

21:43:22 [DisneyPam] no no no, KLF...those have caffeine...bad for the heat...dehydrates you. Stick with water

21:43:30 [Jimbolini1963] frappucino?

21:43:42 [MikeS] And if you're real thirsty there's a nice free cup of Beverly. ;)

21:44:15 [BetsyAnn] lol

21:44:16 [KLF] used to be able too but know they have those little boths all over. Fountain view had them before they were popular. UMMM UMMM Good

21:44:42 [Jimbolini1963] stick with water. I heard of Beverly

21:44:53 [KLF] PK, water is on the odd half hour. Fraps at top, water at bottom

21:45:26 [Jimbolini1963] PK? Player Killing?

21:45:35 [Tink1] gotta head out. have a good night all

21:45:39 [BetsyAnn] Ok now KLF - you have just earned the commando king of the year!

21:45:50 [BetsyAnn] Good night Nanc

21:45:55 [MikeS] Night Nanci

21:45:58 [Jimbolini1963] ok, so making like a baby, Nanc?

21:46:00 [KLF] I do water religiously. I almost died in Bootcamp from heatstroke so I dont mess around with dehydration. Drives my wife nuts

21:46:09 [MikeS] Jim...never had it?

21:46:17 [DisneyPam] lol, KLF. When we go to Pat's, I alternate my Hurricanes & my waters.

21:46:22 [KLF] BA, I resemble that remark

21:46:39 [BetsyAnn] ;)

21:46:42 [Jimbolini1963] frappucino?

21:46:57 [BetsyAnn] I understand about the water - drink lots everyday

21:46:59 [Jimbolini1963] nope

21:47:12 [BetsyAnn] So what other tips for summer park do you all have!

21:47:13 [DisneyPam] who's for Pat's on Tuesday night for 2-fer-Tuesdays?

21:47:16 [Jimbolini1963] no Beverlys either

21:47:18 [MikeS] I'll treat ya Jim ;)

21:47:26 [DisneyPam] ponchos

21:47:28 [KLF] Jim, chocolate-coffee-slushee

21:47:43 [Jimbolini1963] uh oh :-)

21:47:50 [MikeS] In the Summer do the second parade in TMk...less crowded.

21:47:52 [Jimbolini1963] yum

21:48:25 [KLF] BA, plot out rides with good airconditioned lines and strategically place them in touring plans.

21:48:25 [DisneyPam] Mike - you're using your other site's abbreviations again, lol. ;)

21:48:32 [MikeS] Do DAK only in the morning...leave at Noon.

21:48:55 [MikeS] Do Disney Quest on the sunniest days...everyone is at the parks and you're at cool DQ.

21:48:57 [BetsyAnn] those are good tips!

21:49:19 [BetsyAnn] Stay in the parks during the rain if there is any!

21:49:23 [Jimbolini1963] at noon take a nap

21:49:39 [MikeS] When in TMk always cut through the A/C shops on Main Street.

21:49:42 [KLF] I gotta run to. Nite everyone

21:49:57 [Jimbolini1963] night klf

21:49:57 [BetsyAnn] Shop to stay cool!

21:50:04 [BetsyAnn] Good night KLf!

21:50:17 [MikeS] Heed KLF's advise and hydrate at least every hour.

21:50:23 [MikeS] Nite KLF.

21:50:31 [Jimbolini1963] waterpark one day

21:50:51 [Jimbolini1963] or every day

21:51:14 [BetsyAnn] Do the pool is my heat of the summer tip

21:51:55 [Jimbolini1963] good one

21:53:15 [BetsyAnn] Is there a different pattern you should use when touring the parks in the summer?

21:53:58 [MikeS] I think so BA...do outside stuff in the morning and inside stuff between 12-4.

21:54:43 [BetsyAnn] That is a great tip, Mike

21:54:48 [MikeS] Do outside water attractions (Splash, Rapids) in the afternoon to cool off.

21:55:30 [MikeS] Have late lunches....2 P.M. Heat builds and it will be hotter at 2 than at Noon.

21:55:55 [BetsyAnn] I have noticed that Mike!

21:56:19 [Jimbolini1963] and hotter at 4 than at 2

21:56:51 [MikeS] Also, if you buy one of those mugs at your resort...take the mug with you when you leave your resort...assuming you are driving to a park. Then when you return you can head right over and fill your mug before going to your room...and hydrate.

21:57:42 [BetsyAnn] We do take the mugs when leaving the resort - they attach to the fannypack belt and not to bad to carry

21:58:00 [BetsyAnn] Speaking of carrying things in the parks - as light as you can go is my tip in the heatr

21:58:06 [MikeS] Mmmmm, fill that mug with Bevrly.....mmmm.

21:58:20 [MikeS] Wear light clothing.

21:58:49 [MikeS] A lot of beige...I wear only white short sleeved jerseys in the Summer when i visit.

21:59:19 [Jimbolini1963] white & beige

21:59:21 [BetsyAnn] Yep that is a must in the heat

21:59:30 [DisneyPam] find a good hiking sandal like a Teva or a Nike Straprunner. Keeps the feet from getting squooshy from sweat and/or rain.

21:59:45 [MikeS] It also would not hurt to invest in one of those miniature spray fans...not the huge ones...they used to sell small ones at DAK.

22:00:15 [BetsyAnn] Never tried those Pam - may have too!

22:00:26 [Jimbolini1963] also first aid supplies

22:00:49 [Jimbolini1963] blisters

22:00:58 [BetsyAnn] If you bring ziploc bags from home - fill with some ice and a washcloth - nice on the back of the neck in the heat

22:01:10 [BetsyAnn] moleskin Jim - moleskin

22:01:32 [Jimbolini1963] oh, ok

22:01:38 [MikeS] Hire a slave to follow you around the parks and fan you down.

22:02:16 [BetsyAnn] lol Mike

22:02:19 [Jimbolini1963] is that economical?

22:02:32 [DisneyPam] BetsyAnn...I live in them in the parks...

22:02:45 [Jimbolini1963] lol

22:02:45 [MikeS] If you can set your A/C in your room and rental car low....helps you acclimate better to the heat. You don't want to go to extremes.

22:03:29 [Jimbolini1963] Pam lives in Ziploc bags?

22:03:36 [BetsyAnn] Moleskin saves som many feet at Disney

22:03:49 [Jimbolini1963] oh ok

22:04:30 [MikeS] How do you breathe in those things Pam?

22:04:45 [MikeS] Is that what they teach you at the Stampede?

22:04:56 [BetsyAnn] ROFLOL!

22:05:17 [BetsyAnn] Have you ever tried moleskin Jim?

22:05:36 [Jimbolini1963] not that I know of

22:05:49 [MikeS] I don't think he's ever tried skinning a mole.

22:06:07 [BetsyAnn] very funny Mike - you are such a joker!

22:06:33 [MikeS] I'm sure there aren't any moles laughing.

22:07:04 [DisneyPam] no....I live in my straprunners.

22:07:05 [BetsyAnn] It is fuzzy and padded on one side and sticky on the other - put on areas on feet that are hot spots!

22:07:26 [BetsyAnn] :D Mike

22:08:00 [Jimbolini1963] Gee, Pam could save money on the room

22:08:04 [MikeS] BA, you just described a little mole..."fuzzy and padded on one side..."
