First, on the MK express monorail, a woman was changing her baby on the seat of the monorail - keep in mind this was right near park opening time and the monorail car is crammed, and she didnt' put anything under the baby, and as we were exiting we noticed a nice brown streak where the baby had been changed...
Second was at MGM in the bathroom at the ABC Comisary, a mother and grandmother were literally bathing their baby in the sink. Again, they had changed the poopy diaper, but then proceeded to wash the baby out in the sink. They, too, left brown stains as they left...
wow,
thats way wrong, you should hold the baby in the toilet and flush untill clean.

That's not sanitary, you should use a drinking fountain...
Kind of a sad story, my wife saw a teenage girl at DCA (like maybe 14), she was in the bathroom and puked on herself. If that wasn't bad enough, she had a blow-out the other end too. We followed her to make sure she was okay. I can imagine her parents telling her to keep going after she complained about being over heated. We felt bad her that girl. Hopefully she was staying at the Grand Californian and could run in and get cleaned up/changed. Probably not though :(

Maybe Disney needs to get better trucks. I know the sweeper trucks that run around the local Wal-Mart here can pick them up.

One of my worst experiences at WDW was sitting next to a family who decided to change their screaming baby's EXTREMELY stinky diaper in the middle of the Little Mermaid show at Disney-MGM Studios. They finally did leave, only because the changing did not stop the baby from wailing one bit. But of course the lovely aroma lingered throughout the show. :sick:

I did not work for Disney, lol. The big street sweepers might but the smaller parking lot sweepers suck the diaper up then it just sets then in the tube not going up or down. I have more than once had to climb into the bin and shove stuff down the tube after trying to unplug it. The vacuums are meant to pick up dirt, paper and other lightweight stuff.
Did you actually see the sweeper pick up the diaper or was it an employee who in the middle of the freezing mornging getting out of the truck to pick up the diaper?

It was one of those smaller parking lot sweeper trucks. not like the big street sweepers in NY. it the truck just drove over the garbage (dippers, cups, plastic bags, ect.) and it sucked it all right up. Never seen an employee sweeping the parking lot of a Wal-Mart. I know we didn't do it. I cant see why a vacuum truck wouldn't be able to suck up a dipper. I have seen them such up larger,heavier things before. like a McDonald's bag with 4 Big Mac's in it. LOL that was funny. A buddy of mine had just brought our "dinner" (3rd shift so call it what you want) and we went outside. He left something in his car and set the bag down near the curb and ran to his car. The truck came by and SUCKED it right up. LOL

Maybe our truck was a piece of junk, machines may have improved or diapers on the west coast are heavier when loaded. It was an older truck and finally we flatted the tires and slid it into the owner's garage. cough, fun job if you like dodging beer bottles and idiots who take short cuts in parking lots.

I don't mean this as a bash at a particular ethnic group...just reporting what I have seen multiple times. Is it common for Indians to use restrooms without closing the stall doors? I have seen it more than once at WDW and also at Universal. Really freaky...each time, mom was in one stall and a kid or two in another, and everyone was going with the doors wide open. Not gross so much as a "too much information" type of thing. Just wondering if that is the norm in their country perhaps, since I've seen it more than once?

I was on Kilimanjaro Safari, and for the whole ride the girl in front of me picked her nose, examined her magic nose goblins thoroughly, then wiped them on the side of the vehicle (she was in the end seat). Then she would stick her fingers in her mouth and chew and suck on them! UGH!!! Then she would repeat the whole process all over again. The sad thing was, she wasn't a little kid. She had to be 13 or 14. She'd mine away in the farthest reaches of her nasal cavity, then carefully examine her fingers to she if she'd made a discovery before wiping and sucking. I didn't see any animals on that trip because I couldn't tear my eyes away from the gross goings-on. I pity whoever got her seat next.
You shoulda yelled, "Hey, instead of wiping those boogers on the ride vehicle, why dont you just eat them, your sticking your fingers in your mouth anyway!"
Another I like is, "hey, you know what to do with those? roll them in your fingers until thier hard so you can flick them away, then you dont have to wipe them on your pants."
Or just ask her if shes getting anything good digging in there.
Sometimes you just gotta embaras someone to get the point across.
Nose goblins, thats funny, we always called it digging for gold, "find any nuggets lately?"
Should I go on, i've got a million of them? :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
