Ye Haa Bob Sitting and Shifting in a Chevrolet… Don't mess it up!

Story by BruceWDW

Sarah, Sarah, sitting in a Chevrolet,
Sarah, Sarah, sitting in a Chevrolet,
All day long she sits and shifts,
All day long she shifts and sits,
Sarah, Sarah, sitting in a Chevrolet.
 
[Story included as part of Magical Blogorail Red series for September.] If you remember the opening tongue twister and the admonition to be careful of your pronunciation, you are familiar with the live entertainment I'm most looking forward to my next trip to the "world". Ye Haa Bob Jackson performs at the River Roost in my favorite resort, Port Orleans Riverside, and has been since 1997. He can be seen most Wednesdays through Saturdays beginning at 8:30 pm (the best show for children) and until around Midnight. I am such a fan of Ye Haa Bob. First, he is a great entertainer, and live shows at Walt Disney World are a very special part of the Disney experience. His work is very audience-focused, as immersive as any show can be. He loves to learn about the audience, and spends time before he opens doing just that… and then recalls names and celebrations during his performance. Bob Jackson is also very generous with his time on stage, and his enthusiasm spreads throughout the audience. Everyone gets involved; and you can always be guaranteed many in the crowd are repeat visitors since they are very familiar with his routines; this helps the first-timers be comfortable participating with everyone else.

Flights of Wonder in Disney's Animal Kingdom

Story by Beth Doda

Animal Kingdom is one of the theme parks in Walt Disney World that I did not truly appreciate when it first opened.  At the time, I didn't have kids and our park touring included hitting all the major mountains before the lines became too long (If you want to see what changed that thought process, you can read my post A Disney Mom's Lesson: Quality not Quantity.)  But on a trip in April 2003, before kids, my husband and I were strolling around the Asia section of the park.  It was really hot and we decided it was time to head back to our resort.  As we walked by a theater, which honestly I had never noticed before, a cast member asked if we had seen Flights of Wonder yet.  We hadn't and he let us know a new show was starting within a couple of minutes.  We decided we would take a look.  Not only had I never seen it, I hadn't even heard of it.  [Click Here]

About the Author:



I think watching a True-Life Adventure called The Living Desert  started my enthusiastic love of Disney; I must have seen this film every year I was in elementary school. Of course there was the original Mickey Mouse Club which encouraged me to watch Walt Disney Presents (and its successors). Then the 1964-65 World's Fair introduced me to many new and future technologies (Wow, I can actually see people on the telephone!); but mostly it was the awe and imagination that Walt Disney infused into that exposition which started me on my present path. Much of my life's enjoyment has revolved to a great degree around the imagination and creations of Walt Disney, and to enjoy the work of those who he inspired. So where else would Mary Ann and I go on our honeymoon but Walt Disney World two years after it first opened, and the adult love story began (both my marriage and Disney devotions). Skip ahead to today, and I'm writing blogs and posting information for the world to act upon (particularly contests) and use (like the trip planning information in A World View). Two children and four grandchildren later, we still look forward to a Walt Disney World vacation, of course with family, but also just the two us absorbing and enjoying the most magical place on earth. 

Again, good luck and have a magical day.
