April 29, 2012 ~ Aloha! ~ Inagural Wonder to Hawaii-Part 4

[Happy Goofy]

A Mascot meet sounds great. Goofy likes to meet new friends and so does Happy Goofy.

At one time we had a Goofy on out antenna. HE was made of hard plastic and was laying down. We had it for a long time then all of a sudden he disappeared..

We have a Goofy on the back of my car. It is a trailer hitch cover. John had a Mickey on the back of his truck but that too disappeared.

SOMEBODY DAID THAT MAKING COLLARS WAS HARD. THEY WERE RIGHT, ESP. FOR LITTLE FRIENDS LIKE US.

Looks like the Mascots need a group photo op !!

The year we did the Pannama Canal trip we came up the coast to LA in early May. The last day at sea was as cold as I ever been on the ship. They were handing blankets out at the pool.

I think the Pacific Ocean is cold and if we have winds it keeps it chilly. I am expecting to be bunded up at the pool the first day, but after that it will only get better. I hope I am wrong about the first day and it is 80 and sunny.

YES! It was COLD that trip! Even in LA which really surprised me! But this year we will have jackets and stuff because we heard it can be chilly and rainy in the mountains of Hawaii (the volcanoes national park and stuff like that)

We just arrived home from the Maiden voyage of the Fantasy. Everyone we spoke with like the Fantasy better than the Dream. Several nice changes were made from the Dream. On the Fantasy the soda/coffee station are midship rather than by Cabanas. A water feature called AquaLab is behind the stack the AquaDuck is in which is the "lab" Donalds nephews created the AquaDuck with water spraying all over. The adult night club area is very different and much nicer. With an international theme there are bars with Italian (LaPiazza), Irish (O'Gills), French (OohLaLa) and British (The Tube) the main area with dance floor,etc. All are beautifly decorated. The Sky Line area has some great changes as well. The detective game has a Muppet game to find missing props and features Pepe (the shrimp) with his own door on the ship (cabin 5148 1/2) which has a very small door. Animator's Palate has an interactive presentation where guests draw a person on a special page and the computer make the pictures come alive on the screens. Everything about this cruise was fantastic.
But now we need to concentrate on the Hawaai Cruise! Alex

No, if they already have the game pack. Essentially every family or group doing the Scavenger Hunt together need one game pack.

Folks at DL - do we want to try for a meet either in Downtown Disney or the lobby at GC on Saturday night? Or is that too busy. We're doing World of Color on Friday night and I think HappyGoofy is also.

We are doing Fantasmic Dessert on Saturday night.

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Glad you had a great time on the MV, Alex! Hope to share some bread with you on this trip. Or should I say I hope you share some bread with us??

 

[LindaBabe]

We are doing Fantasmic Dessert on Saturday night.

We probably should have done that instead of WOC. I didn't love WOC, but I *did* love my supper at Arials.

Dimples and OC love photo ops. Probably on a sea day? Is there anywhere with "child" themeing that would be accessable to adults? Or are your mascots adults? Dimples is 5 (and will always be 5) and OC is 4.
