View Full Version : Finding your car
We attach a little 'gizmo' to our car aerial when we arrive, it can be a ribbon/mickeymouse head, whatever. That way, if you forget in which lane you've parked your car at the theme parks you have more chance of spotting it!!! <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

We've found our especially useful when we go to Walmart, quite often it's dayligh when we go in but dark by the time we get out and your perspective sometimes gets confused, either that or no one takes any notice where we have parked and we all think it was a different area.
I added ribbons to our Mickey mouse then at least you see the ribbons fluttering in the breeze more often than not, also it makes if different to the others that you buy.

This sounds like a good idea as we managed to lose our car at Sun N FUn on Friday and then again at the Magic Kingdom yesterday. Sometimes we ought to engage our brains when parking!

Oh dear, John & Sarah
Isn't that why we tell people to always write down the location (Mickey row 43, etc) when they park at the theme parks? <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

I know Blott <img src=icon_smile_blush.gif border=0 align=middle>.
We had no excuse at Disney but at Sun N Fun we had these hawkers come up to us as soon as we got out of the car and we had to suffer their sales pitch (they were supposedly collecting for homeless children or something like that). By the time I had shaken off the first one we were immediately approached by another one. They were both very persistent - I had to be very direct to get them to go away if you know what I mean <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>.
This all distracted us somewhat!

Have just put a flourescent orange ribbon in my handbag already for our imminent trip. Just as soon as we pick up the uniquitous "Scooby Wagon" I'll be tying it securly around the ariel.[8D]
Fluorescent sounds good to me! [8D]

Just in case amyone is wondering, that was Sarah with the last posting - I don't have a handbag [:I]
John.
Well, I did wonder but subtly managed to ignore it so glad you've cleared that up! :D
