Turtle Talk with Crush

If anyone were to ask us for Disneyland advice - we would first provide a huge list of rides and shows that 2 1/2 year olds should probably avoid (too bad we didn't a comprehensive list ourselves) and then strongly recommend taking time to see Turtle Talk with Crush - a digitally animated show in which Crush actually participates with the audience.

After a quick introduction, Crush singled out audience members to talk to. And who did he pick first? The "mini man" in the front row - aka Braden. He asked Braden his name which Braden stutterred back to him. Crush laughed and stuttered the name back but then used the name correctly from then on. He got Braden to say totally sweet (with took some effort but made the audience go wild). He also asked Braden where his parents were - and when he saw we were sitting right next to Braden, responded “Short leash, man.” Crush answered other questions like if he had any dumb relatives (he talked about his in-laws) and whether he could swim outside his shell (at first he said no, then said he wasn't sure and began trying to do it by pushing against rocks and stretching as hard as he could which had us all rolloing with laughter.) It was one of the highlights of the trip!
