Mouseketeer Max Tells All...

Hey there tot friends!  Allow me, Mouseketeer Max, to share some inside secrets on how to "mouse-imize" your future Disney vacation!
I'll begin with the plane ride to Orlando.  Make sure your parental guardian(s)  buy a brand new portable DVD player for the occasion.  Your plane ride is free so consider the cost as part of your airfare.  Don't forget to pack a DVD that consists of only animal noises so you can sing along the entire flight.  The old people in front of you will looooooooooooove it (or not), I promise.
Upon arrival, get a good night's rest...
and indulge yourself with a mighty large waffle from Waffle House because  you'll need your energy.
Energy for what you ask?  For a round of bball with the guys, of course!
Get used to this picture, kiddos...You'll be expected to wait in things called "lines" while enduring extreme heat and humidity.  These so-called lines can last anywhere from 20-60 minutes!
Why do we wait in line?  Here are a few reasons...

To meet Princess Leia Minnie Mouse
To meet an eyeball named Mike
To meet Rafiki
To meet Pinnochio 
(Word on the street is you shouldn't trust this guy.  Apparently he's a major liar?!)
To meet Woody and Jessi, my personal favorites!
Other lines may lead you to so-called "rides" such as...

A carousel 
Dumbo the flying elephant (who ever heard of such a thing?!)
At times, you may feel like you are going to pass out from heat exhaustion.  This is a good time to scream for an ice cream treat such as the one below...
...and then go ahead and pass out in the stroller.  (See examples below)

        (I highly recommend the $17 dollar water/fan spray bottle- worth every cent!)

Now, listen carefully.  There are a few instances on the trip where you might feel like rolling your eyes.
Prepare yourself for situations such as...

Getting locked out of the car in the heat and having to wait an hour for you dad to retrieve the keys...

Being told you have to leave the pool when you aren't ready. (See examples 1 & 2)
Dealing with burning eyes when you mom applies sunblock on thick and you sweat so much it runs to your eyeballs...
Putting up with cousins that dress you up for their pure enjoyment...
...and more embarrassing than that...having your mom take off one of her shirts so you don't freeze after being caught in a rain storm.  (Note her shirt is rather large for me and my nipples are exposed.)

Now, don't be alarmed.  These scenarios are just that.  Scenarios.  The good definitely outweighs the bad so I recommend you gather up your family...
Pack lightly...
Hop on a plane...
and enjoy a magical vacation at Disney!

Love,
Lis
