As our safari truck passes the regular Safari unload area, a female cast member there yells out at us, “You won! Woo hoo! Congratulations!” We are a bit taken aback. It’s clear she’s talking to our family, but I have no idea why. I’m guessing she might be a little stunned at our confused looks.
Then, after we’ve passed her, it dawns on me what she was talking about. Brandon is wearing a set of “dream ears,” the Mouse ear hat with silver ears attached to a blue-sky-with-clouds cap, which is only given out as a prize for the Year of a Million Dreams. We did win them – technically, Becky did – but by sending in a postcard entry early on in the contest. They came by mail over a year ago. “We won” isn’t exactly fresh in our minds!
Now that we think of it, though, we not only haven’t won anything extra on this trip, we haven’t seen any Dream Squad cast members at all. But you know, it’s not a big deal to me at all. We’ve had tons of magic already even without winning any “Dream” giveaways!
Speaking of magic, this Safari ride has been one of our most magical experiences, thanks particularly to Wallaby. As we unload – still not able to chat, sadly – we thank him and I pantomime that I’ll call him later. Hopefully we’ll still be able to get together tomorrow and visit more.
And thus ends the first official meeting of the SGT Marsupial Welcoming Committee.
