Finally last week I put the 85 page report in a 3-ring binder with each page protected by a clear plastic sheet. I really have a sense of accomplishment knowing that there'sIa 41,000 word "book" that preserves the most happy memories and details of the best vacation of my life. I may post portions of that report in the future.
Now on with this post:
As of yesterday, I'm a very proud to be the owner of my first "official" Disney Goofy t-shirt. The great thing about this one is that it's direct from Walt Disney World.
Here's how I got it. A couple of weeks ago I found out that my pastor was going to Florida with his family for fall break. Their plans included spending some time on Walt Disney World property doing things outside the theme parks.
Upon hearing this, of course, I saw it as a chance to ask him to bring me back the one thing I wished I'd gotten for myself the last time I was in "The World". I gave Pastor Tim some money and asked him to bring me back a t-shirt with Goofy on it. As a "thank you" in advance I put 90 minutes of Disney songs on a couple of CDs for his kids to listen to on their long drive to Orlando.
Tim and his extended family are frequent Disney visitors. They've been there quite a few more times than I have. The key element in their latest trip was their Disney Cruise Line vacation on the brand new Disney Dream.
They are veteran Walt Disney World guests. They have so much more overall experiences than I have had (yes, I'm a bit envious) especially as multi-member family with a wide age range. I'd love to get together with them an interview them for this blog. I'll have to see if that's possible. It would be a lot of fun. Now back to our story.
I'm wearing the shirt brought back for me in the picture above. I also took some pictures of me wearing the t-shirt and "talking" on my Goofy telephone. Although I'm not going to make it my profile picture for my blogs I will make it my Facebook profile picture. So if you're interested in seeing it find me on Facebook.
I wore my new Goofy shirt to work today. I got several "I like that shirt" remarks from my co-workers both in the call center and the warehouse. I felt especially "Goofy" all day.
I am very grateful to Pastor Tim for bringing back the first of what I hope will be several Goofy themed shirts in my Disney collection.
