Very Serious Dibber
|
THIS! My five year old niece did exactly the same! Her uncle allowed her to go on the zip line despite her not being able to swim and wearing arm bands. As she entered the water, her armbands shot off and she promptly sank like a stone. Cue whistles and a very large lifeguard (wonder if it was the same one?) diving into the water. Her dad and I were lay on sunbeds wondering what was going on and saying how irresponsible some parents were...
Little did we know it was Jayleigh causing the commotion. Needless to say she was banned from the zipline for the rest of the holiday.

Everyone stories has had me in stitches, so I will add a couple (not Disney I will add but in Orlando)
My husband is not the greatest of swimmers and we were at Wet and Wild (first trip) and I had convinced him the wave pool was not that bad, so he starts to trundle in, the waves start coming and he gains a bit of confidence they start getting a bit more powerful and I look over to DH who is now starting to panic just as a huge waves takes him. I find my feet and look over again to find him sitting on the bottom of the zero entry pool, I start to walk over and another waves comes, he tries to stand and I spend the next 5 minutes of the wave pool knocking my poor hubby of his feet time and time again laughing. On our first visit again we went to Ponderosa for breakfast, I find they offer a "angel delight" type substance and jelly, it was amazing. A few days later we head to another all you care to eat buffet and see it there again. My luck is in, I head of and fill my bowl with this stuff. Get back to the table and get a huge spoonful, in it goes only for me to realise its whipped butter and jam. Never lived that down! DH thinking he was clever decided to turn on the engine of the hire car and turn on the air con whilst we waited for it to cool, he pushes the door we are all chatting about the day when we hear the "click" little did we know that the car had an automatic lock and panic starts to rush through me. Paperwork is in the car, what the heck where we going to do. I try all the doors to find luckily that DH had not fully shut the drivers doors and it hadn't caught the lock!

These are all brilliant!
20 years ago when HS was MGM studios, my daughter begged us for a Furby, they were all over Disney at the time and we eventually gave in and she had her beloved Furby. He came everywhere with us and was quite amusing. One afternoon we attended an animation presentation, is Furby switched off? Yes mum... Talk and drawing over we were asked if anyone had any questions, cue the silence as everyone looks around waiting for a question to be asked. Nope, nothing. All of a sudden we hear this very loud BORING! come from daughters direction. She looks at everyone very sheepishly and holds up the offending Furby. It did cause a few raucous laughs amongst the crowd! We still have him

left the passports and 2k in cash in the safe at a disney resort, checked out and drove to the gulf coast.
Luckily an early morning drive the next day after a few phone calls saw me reunited with everything... phew. |

I'm at Typhoon Lagoon today and purely based on this thread am wearing a robust one piece swimming costume and a sports strap for my sunnies! But I do have history with the Siam Park wavepool and nasty scrape injuries so I know not to risk it lol.

In Typhoon Lagoon, but not a swimsuit story...
Me and my DD (aged 5) going round the lazy river. Her tube ended up upside down so I flipped it the right way up, catching one of her front teeth which was a bit wobbly in doing so. Cue much blood and a trip to the first aid hut! Her tooth was wonky for the rest of the night and she couldn't eat properly, but it did come our during the night - but she swallowed it! Tooth fairy left her $10 to make up for it! Edited at 02:56 PM. |
