Hi, I'm Aaron and I'm Katie.

And you're listening to Rope Drop and Park Hop. Hello, friends. We have nice weather today. We need a weather report. 55? Yeah. 57 on Tuesday. Yeah. This weekend was lovely here. I don't know. I was out of town for part of the weekend. But when we got back, it was so nice. We had the garage door open. We were cleaning stuff out. Like, it felt like spring. I know. It's teasing us, though, I think. I'm sure. We'll have second and third and fourth winter still. But we had that horrible, horrible winter a couple of weeks ago for what, three days a week. Let's say a week. It was kind of like two weeks of off and on. Garbage? Yeah, because it was snowing.

1:12.8

And then it was like super cold for a few days. days a week. Let's say a week. It was kind of like two weeks of off and on garbage.

1:11.8

Yeah, because it was snowing and then it was like super cold for a few days and then the snow stuck

1:15.7

around for a while. Oh, like sub zero cold. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But now it's pushing 60, which makes me

1:23.1

happy as we know. It was super rainy at Disneyland this weekend though, right? I saw a lot of people post

1:28.7

I'm not sure. Was it? I've heard a little bit here and there. Yeah. Or maybe it was people

1:34.5

seeing there was rain in the forecast and panicking because that happens a lot. Oh, totally.

Our friend Hannah is headed down this weekend to participate in the gumball rally.

1:43.6

It's not this weekend? That came so fast. Holy this weekend. I'm a little sad. But she was kind of hoping it would rain because she's like, I feel like we'd have an advantage, which I wanted to be like, Hannah. I'm sure she's listening. Hannah, all these people have done this a hundred times, probably in all the weather, right? Right. Well, yes. I don't know if that would give anybody an advantage. And a lot of people that do the gumball rally are locals that have been to Disneyland in the rain. And they've done the gumbull rally so many times I feel like rain isn't an advantage with those hardcore folk. But we're not doing it this year. Are we sad? A little bit.

2:17.8

I really am.

2:18.3

But you know what? Next year, if we get to do it again, it'll be that much more special, right? I know. Because we've missed a year and we'll be excited to go back. You probably don't know this yet because you are not super social media, but today's gumball, today's Mice Chat, Gumball Rally photo. They do a photo frequently where they'll hide gumballs in the picture and you find it's you.

2:37.9

No. Gumball, today's Mice Chat, Gumball rally photo. They do a photo frequently where they'll hide

2:35.7

gumballs in the picture and you find them. It's you. No way. Yeah. You're on jingles. That is awesome. You're the gumball challenge today. What news do we have? Oh, no, let's read a review first. I always try to skip that. Yeah. Let's read a review.
