"My Disney Confessional"

[tomandrobin]

OK...The recent mug post got me thinking of the things I have either done or seen at Disney, that may have bent or broken the rules.

So here is a thread to get those "offenses" off your chest.

I'll go first...

We allowed 5 in a studio...My brother and his family.

My friend from FL spent the day with us at the Poly pool.... during the crowded summer.

I've parked valet at BWV with my TiW card and gone to dinner in Epcot and Illuminations.

I've valet parked at Polynesian for breakfast at Kona and then left the car there.

I've returned way past the hour window on a FastPass.

And, therefore, I'm glad Episcopalians don't have nuns with rulers!

Rode after FP return time.

We will be allowing my parents to stay in a studio for 1 night as well as us three.

lying about our DD age on one trip (in our defense she is really tiny and could not ride the "biggies" then anyway)

Oh....In the early days, we padded the height for one of the kids to ride.

On ocassion I have been able to trade with a "green" lanyard CM. I never ask to .... but if they offer who am I to say no and disappoint them?

This might belong in the things you don't know about me thread, but a kid with a very rare old Universe of Energy pin wanted to trade it for my Safari Mickey pin. I said "yes" without batting an eye. We both left that transaction very happy.

I'm afraid mercenary is my default mode as long as both parties are willing.

I was just thinking of doing this for my DD on our next trip. She was just a hair under the 40 inches requirement during our trip this past week. She was so disappointed and it broke my heart for her to watch her big brother have all the fun. We go back in 6 weeks, I don't know if she'll be at the 40 inch mark by then, but I thought if I put her in some thick soled shoes... well you know.

I paid $70 for my son's Nike AirMax's so he would make the 44 Inch height requirement for Space Mountain and Everest. Its crazy but true!
