    HalloweenTime at DLR Superthread #4

    I found the dragon! He was tucked away between Fantasyland & Frontierland, by the old Skyway. Every few minutes, glowing eyes would light up, smoke would pour from the bushes, and you could hear him growl. Pretty neat!

    Hotel Help Please!

    I would recommend the Castle Inn. We've stayed in their two-bedroom suites a couple times, we got killer rates, and everyone was very happy. Also, youre close enough to walk so theres no transportation fee!

    Have you had a child freak out during a ride?

    Awww! First off, THANK YOU for not forcing your kids on a ride. That never ceases to offend me. There are so many amazing suggestions here, but Im going to add my two cents anyway. I think your enthusiasm can make all the difference. I would let them choose the rides, prepare them ahead of...

    Disney Rewards Cardmember Character Meet 'N' Greet

    We have dozens of these pics! It could be coincidence, but we believe that they start with Minnie. So if you're there in the beginning, you'll get Minnie. We've tested this several times & always got Minnie this way. That said, Stitch is much more fun! :thumbsup2

    anyone else notice merchandise quality poor?

    Yes! Ive been collecting Christmas mugs for years, and this years is especially *cheaper* quality. I also have an elaborate Mickey balloon complete with scarf & winter hat. Its so beautiful I use it as a Christmas decoration. You dont see anything like that anymore.

    Castle Inn Ceckin question

    We check in early at the castle all the time, but it could be that we are just very lucky. I dont believe theres any guarantee that a room will be ready, but Im sure they would allow you to park until there is one available.

    "16 awesome hidden gems you must expereince at Disneyland"

    I rode the Lilly Belle recently, and I received a Jungle Cruise MAP (different than the Jingle Cruise poster) last month. I dont know about the Mark Twain, but I really dont see that ending. I have heard that the death certificates are done & gone, but you can make your own here...

    Does anyone ever tell you that you care too much about Disneyland?

    The way I see it, there are Disney people, and non-Disney people. The non-Disneys will never get it, and thats sad. My sanity gets questioned all the time ("You're going AGAIN?! Havent you already seen it all?"), but who cares?! No big deal! I want more! ;) I think Disneyland has...

    Character Meet N Greet at private Chase Cardmember locations

    No ones mentioned the points! You get so much toward a Disney gift card with every purchase. We put our annual passes on it, got the points & a way to improve our credit. We've been saving our points up all year, and we have a pretty nice gift card going. We take the character pictures...

    $67 a night for Castle Inn & Suites Nov 15-17!

    LMT gave me $57 the next week :yay: Ive noticed that Castle Inn is no longer on their list after December. Im wondering if they are canceling their contract with LMT now that the hotel is so much nicer.

    Cheap family suite close to Disneyland

    We just stayed in the King Suite (2 rooms, 1 King, 2 Queens) at the Castle Inn. We got a killer deal and the parking was ample & free.
