Our 3rd Annual Holiday Trip to DL in November - November 22nd - 25th, 2013 Post #3416

Day 2 – August 14, 2012– Part 20​

We left off at PP where I watch Instant Concert. It is more of a daytime WoC show without the color, video mist screen and pyrotechnics. It was okay but it wasn’t something that I would do again unless it is the actual WoC show at night which is always amazing. Speaking of WoC, I still have that night at 9pm which my DB, V and I will be seeing the show and also I get to use my Glow with the Show Ears that my friend bought for me a couple of months ago. I was so excited to use my ears that night after watching videos on youtube about the glow with the show ears which interacts with WoC. I also heard that it also interacts with other parts of the lands at the DLR and the rides. Now back to the TR which I am about to head on out of the park and back to the room.

I was at PP after watching Instant Concert and I was heading on back to Best Western Anaheim Inn where I will rest up until it is time to head on back to DCA for dinner at 6:30pm at Wine Country Trattoria. I am looking forward to WCT after reading a trip report from Kim (kmedina). But first, I needed to head on back to the room and rest up after a long day at the parks since I was here at 6:30am. It was 3:10pm when Instant Concert was over and I only had about an hour or two to rest up until dinnertime.

When I left PP, I had to get some pictures on the way out towards BVS. The day was getting warm which was in the mid 80s that afternoon and I just can’t take staying outside that day at the park until I change my clothes.

MFWoD or MFWoT which a lot of people would call it.

Leaving PP viewing

While I was walking on out of PP and over to BVS, I thought about riding the Red Car Trolley one more time before I left that day. There were some other opportunities to ride the Red Car Trolley during the trip and come back later during the day or go back on it on Wednesday. But I decided it was time to rest up and get all my equipment and join up with my DB and V at BWAI.

Walking down that day wasn’t as busy as I would have thought. Sometimes the people in the park are at Cars Land or Paradise Pier to go on the rides while places around WCT are not that busy.

A look at Cars Land while I was exiting DCA. It wasn’t as busy over at Cars Land. I knew that RSR and LFT were at least 40+ minute wait time that day so I didn’t even bother going through Cars Land since I wanted to get on out of the park.

I was back at Buena Vista Street and I decided to head on out of the park instead of catching the Red Car Trolley since I wanted to rest up that day. It was not that busy around BVS which there were quite a number of people at the Storyteller’s Statue which the guests are getting a picture while others are getting pictures with Mickey right by the Elias & Company store.

More different pictures of the BVS buildings while I was exiting the park

The Chamber of Commerce building or actually the Guest Relations building at DCA

Exiting the turnstiles and now leaving DCA

I finally left the esplanade and back to BWAI to rest up for a while until it was time for the three of us to head on back to DCA that night and have dinner and see WoC. I have spent about 9 hours in the DLR from APEE to 3:30pm which is a long day to be at the park. This was the first time that I have stayed in the park for that long since last September during my one day trip to the DLR during the Halloween season. The three of us got to do a lot that day and I accomplished a lot of my goals of seeing Red Car News Boys and Instant Concert. We got to go on all of my regular rides at DL and DCA.

I got back to the room around 3:30pm and my DB and V were just resting up in the room on the bed watching TV while I was dragging myself. I was tired from all the walking and carrying the bag around the park. But I didn’t mind at all since I wanted to have a bag to carry things around with me if I needed it. After getting back to the room, I took a shower and changed my clothes into new ones for the nighttime. After getting out of the shower, I rested up for an hour until it was around 6pm so we can head on back to DCA.

I really needed that rest after a long day walking in the parks since I don’t stay in the park that long.

It was around 5:45pm that day and I took an hour nap at the room with DB and V. When I got up, we packed all of our bags and started to head on out of the room and back to the park. I brought my tripod along with my video camera as I always do every time I go to the parks at night. Plus I got to wear my Glow with Show Ears which I am looking forward to the most and see how these ears will react during WoC.

We left around 6pm and on our way back to the parks. While we were heading on back to the parks, it was quiet that night on Harbor Blvd. The day was clear and it was still warm that day while we were walking back to the esplanade.

When we got to the esplanade, there were a lot of people heading on into DL while there were some heading on over to DCA. Maybe DCA won’t be as busy at night then in the morning where it was crowded with people heading on over to Cars Land in the morning during APEE/EMH and the regular times.

We were now back at DCA and the first thing we did was to head on over to Cars Land first before we head on over to WCT for dinner. BVS wasn’t that busy and I was considering going on the Red Car Trolley, but it was full and ready to leave the station. So I had to try another time to ride the Red Car Trolley.

While walking down BVS, I got some pictures of the buildings again just like when I left that afternoon.

While we were walking down on BVS, another show at BVS was going on around the Carthay Circle Theater. The other show was Five and Dime. Five and Dime is a daily show in the afternoon which is a group of quintet of jazz performers plus one vocalist.

We didn’t have time to see them so we just passed by the show and back to Cars Land.

We kept on walking down to Cars Land and hopefully be able to go on Mater’s Junkyard Jamboree. It is possibility that the wait time will only be 5 minutes that time, but I expected to be in the 10 to 15 minute range. Hopefully it will be in the 5 range and we will plan on going on it that day.

Walking on down past ABL and by the backside of GRR

Now entering Cars Land

When we got to Cars Land, it was semi busy around the area and we started to head on over to MJJ and see what the wait time was like.

At MJJ, the wait time was 15 minutes and we didn’t have time to ride MJJ since we had dinner at 6:30pm at WCT. So we skipped it and started to walk down towards Radiator Springs until it was dinner time.

A picture of the light fixture at MJJ

That’s it for this post and I will have more from DCA that day and see what we did until dinnertime at WCT.

Day 2 – August 14, 2012– Part 21​

We left off back at DCA where the three of us returned to DCA for dinner and the 9pm WoC show. We were looking forward to dinner at Wine Country Trattoria and the 9pm WoC show where my DB and V were excited to see. We were in Cars Land and hoping to go on some rides before we head to dinner at WCT. But the wait time for Mater’s Junkyard Jamoree was a 15 minute wait time and we didn’t have time to wait that long when It was close to dinner time.

The three of us roamed around Cars Land until it was time for dinner, so we head down towards Radiator Springs. It was not that dark yet, the weather was going down a lot when it is night time. Cars Land looked a little busy that day. We plan to come back to Cars Land after dinner to see the buildings light up at night and play “Life Could be Dream” just like in the movie where the lights turn on when it gets closer to nighttime.

Passing through the Cozy Cone Motel dining area

Instead of going back towards the entrance of Cars Land, DB and V wanted to see what leads to the other side of Cars Land which is in the direction towards A Bug’s Land. So we head in that direction.

A few signs at CL from the ABL entrance area

This is always been my favorite sign at CL with Lightning McQueen and Mater just like in the movie “Car 2”

When we looked at Luigis Flying Tires, they didn’t have the beach balls which surprised me a lot. But after hearing reports that the beach balls slowed down the loading process and people got hurt when tossing the balls, it did make sense to take them out. But that is part of LFT. But it looks like not for the Disney.

Now entering ABL from CL

A few pics of ABL while we were in the area

Some light fixtures at ABL

It was almost 6:30pm so we head on out of ABL and over to WCT. I got a few more pictures of ABL while we were exiting.

A look at the Radiator Springs Racers FP distribution area which was quiet ever since the FP’s were gone this morning.

Luckily, WCT was right by Cars Land and ABL so it was about a minute walk.

We checked in at WCT at 6:30pm and there were some people dining outside the restaurant. We thought about eating inside, but it was such a nice day we chose to eat outside. We were close to the fountain at WCT and got our menus. We had plenty of time that day which WoC starts at 9pm and I the lights at Radiator Springs should start around 8pm just like the last time. But I plan ahead of time just in case if the lights start early we can have some time to go on over to CL and see the lights.

Light fixtures at WCT

For dinner, I had the Spaghetti Bolognese. It was a nice pasta dinner with Ragu of beef, Italian sausage tomatoe sauce and parmesan cheese. I thought about trying something different like Braised Lamb Shank or Balsamic-Braised Short Ribs, but I felt like pasta that night.

My DB and V shared two plates together, they had the Shrimp Scampi entrée and the Fritto Misto which was calamari, mussels, green beans and artichoke hearts that were all fried. I had a few calamari as well that we all shared our plates together. The shrimp scampi was very nice with white wine and capers while the Fritto Misto appetizer plate was nice.

A few more pictures of WCT while we were at the table finishing our dinner

It did get busy later that night at WCT.

After dinner was over, we started to head on out of WCT and over to Cars Land to see the light up of the buildings at Radiator Springs. Dinner was really nice at WCT, it will be a long time until I eat at WCT again in the near future. The food was really good for the price which I had an AP which saved us some money on the food. But I do plan on eating at the Carthay Circle Restaurant in November with my DA.

That’s it for this post and I will have more from Cars Land on the next update.

Love your pictures in these posts. Did you like your Spaghetti Bolognese? It's one of my favorite Italian dishes. It looked like a nice night to be dining outside.

Interesting about the beach balls at LFT. I could see someone getting hit in the face with them...

It's great that you will eat at the Carthay Circle Restaurant in November with your DA

[Sherry E]

That spaghetti from WCT looks delicious. Now I am craving spaghetti. I could easily eat spaghetti and meat sauce all the time (though I only actually eat it every once in a while). I should make some right now - I think I have all the necessary supplies - but it's way too hot to cook!

Thank you TK. I did enjoyed the Spaghetti Bolognese at WCT. I was thinking of eating something else, but I felt like pasta that night. It was very nice that night and it was going to be a nice night at the DLR while we watch WoC at 9pm.

I heard that on Monday the day we got there, the beach balls at LFT were taken out. I was kind of surprise at first to not see the beach balls. After reading reports that it was slowing down the loading process, it did make sense to take them out and speed up. But that beach balls are part of the ride just like the Flying Saucers at DL in the 60s. It was a shame to see the beach balls gone at LFT.

I wanted to eat at CCR during this trip, but my DB and V weren't ready to spend a lot of money at a sit down restaurant like CCR then the WCT. But at least my DA and I will eat there during our November trip. That reminds me that I do have a few more days to make my 60 day reservation at the CCR.

The spaghetti was good that day. My DB liked the Shrimp Scampi dish since he likes to eat shrimp. I can't eat spaghetti all the time, the one thing I can eat all the time is chicken or pizza.


The next post will be up shortly so stay tune.

Day 2 – August 14, 2012– Part 22​

We left off at WCT where we had dinner. It was a nice Italian dinner where we enjoyed the food. It’s been a long time since I ate at WCT which was in the early days at DCA and now I got the chance to eat at that restaurant. Now we are about to head on over to Cars Land to see it light up at night. I really wanted to show my DB and V to see Radiator Springs all light up at night which is amazing just like in the movie “Cars”.

Now we are heading on over to CL while the park started to get busier and busier with more people

Over at Cars Land, it was getting busy around the area while most of the people were waiting for Radiator Springs to light up at night and play “Life Could be Dream” just like in the movie.

While we were in Cars Land, we stopped around in the middle of the traffic light where we could see Ramone’s House of Body Art, Flo’s V8 Café, Lizzie’s Curios store and Luigis Casa Della Tires building where they will light up shortly. While we were in the area, I got a few pictures until it was time for the light up. Luigi’s Flying Tires wait time was 40 minutes which was still long during that day.

Around 7:45pm, the music started to change and “Life Could be Dream” is not playing and everyone in Radiator Springs all started to get excited when the lights started to turn on at Radiator Springs. I was singing “Life Could be Dream” while it was playing and all the buildings started to light up that day. We stayed in RS until the song was over. DB and V were excited to see the lights turned on at Radiators Springs and they said that it was worth coming to CL to see the buildings light up at night.

The Leaning Tower of Tires

A lot of CM’s that are happy and clapping during the music

When “Life Could be Dream” stopped playing, the regular songs started to play at CL and it was time for the three of us to head on over to PP for the 9pm WoC show. I was planning on getting the fire hydrant spot at PP viewing in the blue section. Mostly I get in the queue at PP very early, but I knew that the spot won’t be taken that early unless someone on the threads knows about it and will come later that night to get the spot. I am not taking any chances with the spot and we head on over to PP. I got a few more pictures of CL on the way out.

Passing by Sarge’s Surplus Hut

Fillmore’s Taste-In

Passing through MJJ

Now exiting CL and heading on over to PP. It was quite busy at CL while we were exiting.

Walking towards PP was busy as well. I’m hoping that the spot is not taken, but it did happen one time for all the time I have been in the blue section.

That’s it for this post and we’ll see if I got my spot at the fire hydrant or not.

 

[PrincessInOz]

WOW! That's quite a few updates to catch up on.


Really enjoying your pictures and I love looking at the art deco features of BVS.
Your meal looks great. I think I might just go take out that bolognaise sauce I have in my freezer right now.


Thanks for sharing.

Thank you PiO. I do like the signs right when you enter CL from ABL.

The food at WCT was good.

Your welcome.

Day 2 – August 14, 2012– Part 23​

We left off at leaving Cars Land and heading on over to PP for the 9pm WoC show. I am getting excited for my DB and V since this will be the first time to see WoC instead of the videos that they have seen form my previous trips. At Cars Land, we saw the lights turn on at Radiator Springs just like in the movie “Cars” and played “Life Could be Dream”. I love listening to the “Life Could be Dream” music every time I am in Cars Land. The day was going great after we had dinner at Wine Country Trattoria and in Cars Land when the lights turn on. Now we are on our way to PP for WoC.

The three of us are heading on over to PP for the 9pm WoC show. I was hoping that the fire hydrant spot at the blue section is not taken when we got there. It was close to 8pm while we were walking on over to PP. The day was nice and clear and it wasn’t that cold where we had to wear jackets or long pants. At least it was going to be a nice night to watch WoC.

When we got to PP and right at the blue section entrance are right across from the Little Mermaid ride, most of the people are in the viewing area and the fire hydrant spot was not taken. I was excited to see that the spot wasn’t taken. I told my DB and V that they could do something until it was time for the show at 9pm. I gave them the other two WoC FP’s and they headed down at PP towards Goofy Sky School.

So I head on over to the viewing area and got my spot right by the green fire hydrant. Originally it was a yellow fire hydrant during the early days at PP. Now it is a green fire hydrant and this is a great spot to see WoC if you don’t want to wait a long time. But I am acutally waiting about an hour for the show, but it was perfect for me since I videotape the show and I don’t want my equipment to get wet. The closer you are at the lagoon, the more chance you will get wet.

Pictures of MFWoD or MFWoT that people would call it from the spot that we were going to see WoC. There weren’t too many people in the viewing area when I got there but most of the railings were taken up close. I did say this in my past trip reports if you want to get a good viewing area of WoC and don’t have to see people in front of you, you should get in the queue’s for the show early. Out of all the times I have seen WoC, I only had to see people in front of me just once out of the 15 times I have seen WoC since it debut in the summer of 2010.

The railings on the bridge in PP for the blue section were almost full while the area where I am is not even getting anyone. Most of the people are heading on down in order to get a good spot. They should know that they aren’t going to get a good spot to see the show unless you show up very early.

I just sat around the spot and waited until it was time for the 9pm WoC show. My DB and V were still out in PP somewhere going on rides that night while I am waiting. I have no problem waiting for them since they will really like the show and the spot they will see it is a great spot.

I got a few more pics while I was still waiting.

You can tell that there is no one wants to get a railing spot where I am at with about 45 minutes to go until the show

A look down towards PP

The front of the PP viewing area started to get more and more people.

While I kept waiting more and more people started to fill up the viewing area while I kept the spot for the three of us to see that night.

My DB and V finally arrived with about 20 minutes to go to WoC and they did two rides during the time I waited at the viewing area. They went on Silly Symphony Swings and the Golden Zephyr. They did quite a lot during the short time when I got the spot. It was dark and most of the people are in the PP viewing area for the 9pm show.

I also have my Glow with the Show ears ready to wear on my head for the show. Even though I won’t get to see my ears glow during the show, but there were some other people with the Glow with the Show ears down in front of us. I didn’t leave my ears on the tripod since I was going to put my video camera on the tripod and have the ears on my head. I will also be taking pictures with my DSLR that night. So I am doing two things at once just like the other night with Magical fireworks.

We kept waiting until it as time for the show while the rest of PP is starting to fill up with more people.

It was 9pm and it was time for WoC, I started up my video camera to record and have my DSLR in my hands to take pictures that night. My DB and V were on the left hand side of me and I told them in advance to block off the area where they are watching the show. There are people that are rude and try to force their way in to see the show. I have gotten some people like that for WoC, sometime I try to let the kids in as long as they don’t touch my stuff or make a lot of noise.

Here are pictures of WoC with my DSLR. I was thinking of uploading WoC, but the video was not that great and I didn’t want to upload a very bad video. So enjoy the pictures of the 9pm WoC show.

During the show, you can see on the bottom of the pictures that there were some people that had the Glow with the Show ears and they were reacting to the show just as advertised.

That’s it for this post and I will have more from WoC that night.

 

[PrincessInOz]

Nice teaser to WoC. Those pictures look great so far.

 

[tksbaskets]

Great pictures of WOC! Looks like you got your spot. I like the Glow with the Show ears

Thank you PiO. Some of them turned out great while some turned out very blurry.

Thank you TK. I always have to get the fire hydrant spot every time I see WoC at the blue section no matter what. I would even trade the very front railing at Paradise Pier lagoon just to get that spot. I just don't like to get close because if I do, my equipment can get wet and ruined by getting closer to the lagoon. I really like the Glow with the Show ears and it was genius of them to make these ears that interacts with the show and rides.


The next post will be up shortly.

Day 2 – August 14, 2012– Part 24​

We left off at PP watching the 9pm World of Color. I always love watching WoC which is one of my favorite nighttime shows at DL. The others are the fireworks and Fantasmic!. It was a nice night while my DB, V and I watched at my favorite spot in front of the fire hydrant. This is the spot I have to be every time I see the show in the blue section. Out of all the times I have seen WoC, I still like the fire hydrant spot as my favorite. One day, I will try the dining area and see WoC. It might happen on my upcoming trip back to DL in November if my DA is okay with eating a lot of food.

Let’s get back to pictures of WoC. Like always the show is the same except there will be some different scenes during the show I haven’t seen yet. You will find out shortly which scenes I am talking about.

The Little Mermaid scene

Sebastian

Finding Nemo scenes

That’s it for this post and I will have more from WoC.

 

[Sherry E]

Gorgeous WoC pictures, Bret! I love the colors.


Did you receive your copy of that "special edition commemorative paperback book" that Disneyland Annual Passport is sending out to AP holders? It's called "A Celebration of a Wish Come True," and they claim to be sending it out instead of the usual Backstage Pass magazine. It's made of different paper and they mail it out in a white envelope. If you haven't gotten yours yet, you will.

Of course, my mailman pushed my copy into the mailbox and bent it, which makes me mad.

What I wonder is, are they sending these books out to all AP holders, or just the Deluxe-Premium-Premier AP holders? At first I thought they were sending me something to lure me into renewing my AP for another year, but it's just a book that they're sending to AP people.

ETA: I just had a chance to look through the book thoroughly - and some of the pictures in it are stunning! There are a lot of photos of supposed "guests" (who may or may not be real guests, or Disney-planted guests), but some of the scenic/landscape pictures are fantastic! Even the balloon shot on the back cover is amazing. The book reminds me of the old souvenir guide books that were sold in the parks every year in the old days - they were long and horizontal in shape, and they had a section for each land in Disneyland. I used to get one on each DL trip when I was a kid. This AP book is like that - it breaks down all the lands in both parks, except the photos are 100 times better than they used to be when I was a kid!

Beautiful capture, Bret.


Looking forward to MORE!

Thank you Sherry.

I haven't received the "special edition commemorative paperback book" yet. Sometimes I get those magazines from Disney and sometimes I don't get them. Even though I am a Premier AP holder, the only thing I got during the summertime and now is a Mickey Monitor book which tells you about the new Fantasyland at the MK in WDW.

I'm sorry to hear that your copy want bent in the mail.

That is very interesting, I haven't received one yet and I renewed my AP back in June. So I would think that Disney is trying to get the AP holders that their AP's are about to expire to renew. That what it looks to me since I haven't got the book yet. Even though I live in California, I barely get those books or magazines from Disneyland or Walt Disney World. I know that they have millions of AP around the world, Disney should at least mail something at least in a couple of months for all the money we spend on the AP's.

Now you got me all excited to see that AP book. Looks like I will have to wait and hope that Disney will send me my book.

Beautiful capture, Bret.


Looking forward to MORE!

Thank you PiO.

More pics are coming.

Day 2 – August 14, 2012– Part 25​

We left off at PP watching the 9pm World of Color. The day was great where we were watching WoC from my favorite spot and the weather was great and warm at night. When I looked at my pictures and see how many I took, I must have taken over 300+ pictures of WoC from that night. Some of them turned out great while some of them turned out bad. Some I will not post on the trip report since some of them are the repeat ones.

Let’s get back to pictures of WoC.

Wall-E scenes

Toy Story scene

Woody and Buzz Lightyear

UP scene

Aladdin Scene

That’s it for this post and I will have more from WoC that night.

Hi Bret,
Wonderful picture of the WOC show. It is spectacular. Now I'm humming the songs in front of my computer. I think I will go and re-watch your youtube videos.

 

[PrincessInOz]

Great pictures Bret. Are you happy with them?

Hi Bret,

Thank you TK. Every time I see my pictures of WoC, I always have to go through my videos and see it over and over again. I just can't get tired of this show. Hopefully I won't try to forget the other shows at WDW when I go back next month. I am looking forward to seeing Illuminations at EPCOT.

Great pictures Bret. Are you happy with them?

Thank you PiO.

Some of them turned out nice while some of them turned out bad. I want to get your opinion on some of the WoC pictures that you have seen so far. Some of them are showing light reflections in some of the pictures. I would guess that the glare was from the density lens that I have used that day. I didn't have the tripod on the camera which I carried it with me. It does make a big difference when you don't have the tripod and the pictures turned out a little blurry.

I looked on the details on the pictures that it was set up like this from this picture below. You can see the blue glare on the picture and I would have guess that it was from the density filter that I used during the show.

F-Stop: f/1.8
Exposure time: 1/6 sec.
ISO speed: ISO-3200
aperture: 1.6

I used the no flash compulsory and what setting should I have used that night?

Thank you for your input.
