Stupid Guest Tricks

HA! Hubby was chiding me for having a rain poncho with SEA WORLD on it for World of Color Show
He was very grateful that we had it later (red section waterfront)when we got literally hosed :p:

Also fortunate-little SG children whose parents wanted to stand in front of us made good deflectors! ;)

^ Hm, when did you go see WoC? I have been working down there a lot lately as a hawker for ponchos, popcorn, cotton candy, or drinks. You may have seen me! lol!

Yes, Red Section gets DUMPED on usually! When I sell ponchos, I try to stay away from that section when the show starts since I get to stay down there while I sell ponchos. :D:

I'm sorry, but planning ahead for rain is one sure way to get it. I do not allow rain, or the possibility of it, to enter my mind. Therefore, it doesn't rain. Simple, uncomplicated and almost never fails. Well, it did once in the early evening one of those famous Florida cloud bursts happened in. In my defense though, it was coming in sideways and such humongous amounts that no poncho in the world would have done anymore than just keep the wet inside it. The storm lasted until I got out to my car and then, as quickly as it started, it stopped!

I blame the people that brought poncho's with them for that. :D:

What do I do if it rains? Go ride Kilimanjaro Safaris!
Riding during and after a rain shower is your best chance at catching the elephants swimming, which is a joyful sight.

We have those too. No Mickey, just the Disney Parks logo. But they are too bulky and heavy for DW to carry in her purse. We Did use them in December when it was raining in the am as we headed to a park. But for emergency use - no.

Ha, I've had the opposite experience... If I bring a poncho, umbrella, and completely prepare for the possibility of rain, it won't rain one drop. If I leave the house in a hurry and forget to bring that stuff, it's guaranteed to rain, and rain hard.

You're quite welcome! (Sorry it was $3 haha) I miss hawking drinks! They've had me on popcorn the past three days.
