So.. .um.. yhea.. I just pulled ahead.
Get with it!
Grrrrrr!

I would have been agitated with waiting for the bus as well; especially when so many other buses had come and gone for the other parks.
Still....sounds like you got a good number of rides in.
DS never cared much for 3D Muppets nor Disney Jr characters; so that part of the park was always a miss for us.
And I will share that my MB experience was a 9 out of 10. The only hiccup we had was with the MNSSHP ticket; but you can wait to find all that out as it unfolds over the next few months.
So let's see- my #1 would be ToT, #2 (very close 2nd) is Everest, #3 is Soarin' (although I would like to see a digital upgrade), #4 is Splash (it ranks ONLY as #4 because of the drop at the end- I don't like getting wet but LOVE the story in the ride) & #5 is Pirates. Oldy but goody.
If I could throw in Disneyland, I would put Haunted Mansion in place of Everest (#2) but with the Halloween overlay which was AMAZING.

Sounds like the afternoon was much calmer than the morning.
I like SciFi Diner for the atmosphere and like you wish that the trailer loop was longer. Shame that the food has gotten so-so. Oh well, it's going to be a long time before I'm back there for a meal.
I've never really understood why Disney has kept the junkyard tour. Still....nice to see Walt's plane.
Love the Osborne Light pictures you've gotten. Such lovely night time colour. And which of the two pictures did you use for the card?
We weren't overly impressed with the food at sci fi either, but the movie clips were fun. We love MST3K!
Characterpalooza looks fun! You got to meet some great characters.
Oh the lights are always so pretty! I'll have to remember that about the purple cat
Ugh, DH just loves that picnic burger!!
Great finds at Characterpalooza. I have to say, it's much better now that it's on Streets of America. It seems like they send a lot more characters out than they did when it was inside! The picture of Minnie pointing out DD's polka dot jacket is adorable.
I love love love the Osborne Lights! I still have never been there to see them actually come on at night. But I love wandering around and taking it all in. So beautiful!
That picnic burger is quite the creation!
Looks like a great DHS day overall! DD is looking over my shoulder as I read your TR, and she highly approved of all your meet and greet photos!
We are equal! I will probably JUST start posting Wednesday sometime later this week. So I won't be too far ahead of you even with your cruise!
I have work deadline next week, Birthdays, Kids activities & I need to get back down to the gym this week. I have not run since the half and I signed up for a Green Beer 5K on St. Paddy's weekend at Soldier Field! I signed up for the beer- of course- NOT the health benefits of running.
We ate at Sci-Fi too for the ambienance (sp?). Love it in there. Even if the food is only so-so.
Nice picture of you guys in front of Osbourne LIghts- I think it turned out nice!
Again- HAVE FUN on your cruise next week! Jealous- I want to get out of this snow/cold!! Find the Mickey on the snorkel trail at Castaway (still have not found it!)
Way to get it posted. I downloaded pics this morning to do part of Wed morning at lunch! I'll still be behind - I should just link my report to yours because it's the same pics! Hahahahaha!!! Actaully I have one of you and U that's pretty good...
Love the picture of Minnie & you guys. That's a great shot!
Great update! Have a blast on your cruise! Tell Mickey we miss him!!!
You keep saying Wednesday - I think you mean Thursday. Pretty sure you already finished Wednesday! There will definitely be some picture overlap between us, but since our time together sort of weaves in and out, I think it's probably better that we each write our own. That Minnie picture was completely her idea. We couldn't figure out why she wanted them to cover their eyes. They didn't know what she was going to do.
I'm looking at the picture....but I can't see the HM (*hangs head in shame*).
It's right in the middle, hiding BEHIND the branches of the fern. Not a traditiional 3-circle but a full face in profile. It was small, and you couldn't get real close to it, but I find the out-of-focus shot actually mades it easier to see than in person. (Even after we finally saw it, I questioned the CM that it really was a hidden mickey and not just a vague Mickey-shaped blur. However, it IS in the Hidden Mickey book, which I guess makes it official.)
Being an only child myself I know the pitfalls of it from a kids point of view, and in this day and age its even harder to find kids to play with as there is so much organized activities out there (at least in the US) that other kids are spending 6 nights a week in. (Just found out our neighbors daughter has cheerleading on Sunday NIGHTS as part of her schedule.) I sooooo much want to find a friend for DD to bring next time (2015?). I have one in mind but I'm not sure if the parents will let her go.
I think it really is a Mickey- I can see it pretty clearly when I look at it now even though it was VERY hard to spot.
Also, feel free to take Sarah in 2015. Hahahahaha!!! (I was also an only child and my parents always took a friend with me on vacation but it was a different age and parents were not as..ah..um... smothering?!?protective?!?!..not sure the word I'm looking for....)
