So sad to have finished all our videos as the Trip is well and truly done and dusted. This is a look at Disney's Famous El Capitan theatre where we saw the Muppets live on stage and then went for a drive thru Beverly Hills.

Thanks for watching our series fellow Dis'ers

We will be back in March next year for a West coast Holiday Video Series.

:hippie:

Just watched the final instalment. It's always bitter sweet going home! Sad to be leaving but nice to get home after a long trip.

I was interested in the guy in the Disney Store approaching you about taking photos and he said it so many times "I noticed you were taking a lot of photos", so they do still monitor photography. They do do that often, check on people taking photos and have done it for years (in all Disney parks). Many people don't realise that they do actually monitor people taking photos and what they are taking them of. My Dad used to take heaps of photos and we were regularly stopped asking about him taking photos. Years ago before digital cameras people didn't take as many photos as they do today so they would be suspicious of those taking lots of photos for anything other than touristy things (like of buildings, shop displays, food, merchandise).

Once they establish that you are a genuine tourist with a love of photography and are just making memories they are fine.

Thank you for sharing your families holiday videos with us. I have enjoyed watching them :goodvibes

No problem thanks for watching them, It was a bit strange him asking about the photos.We didn't see anybody else taking photos or video of that store while we were there so I guess we stood out :)

Always sad to be going home yer right but happy to be getting home.
 
ooh Karlie where is that theatre? Have to add it to the list. Those muppets you were looking At on the table were awesome, could you buy them? Were the expensive?

Have you seen the magazine yet? I wonder if it was a ruse to photograph you and have your name in case you turned out to be sinister in your motives? :rotfl2:

How lucky to have someone show you around!

What does Jake have written on his arm?

Finally, but sorry you looked sooooo tired at the airport! I wll probably be worse than that by the time we leave though. How was the flight home?

We just got our new video camera yesterday, can't wait to try it out!

Where have you been Sammy? Haven't heard from you in ages.

Yes I had shifty eyes that day, plus Im Australian. Which makes me related to criminals.lol:scared:

The El capitan theatre is over the road from the Chinese theatre.It was madness over there. I was freakin with the super hero fighting, and hubby was acting very confident that day. It made me a bit on edge. Last thing I wanted was hubby in the clink after being punched in the mouth by Mr Incredible. :sad2::sad2:

Lindsey is lovely, she is on GF as Sugarpiximom. ( Or similar username to that. ) She has the disneyland thread on GFs. Tara just loved Lindsey to bits, and wants me to ring her all the time. Steve wouldn't let me buy miss piggy, but Lindsey offered to send her over because she was on sale Black friday. I didn't bother though. She was very cheap. Im not sure, but $30 at the most.

Jakes arm has our USA phone number wrote on it. Nothing worse if he got lost in LA. ( sounds like a movie.) We bought 2 sims off ebay and used our phones. Wasn't that hard to do. Great for when you split up shopping.
 
Oh, I just remembered. What camera did ya buy? The offer is on the table if you want Steve to do your video. ( if its family friendly.lol. );) :rotfl:

Can't believe its 4 months you go. Wow.:cheer2:

:rotfl2: no European vacation for us! :rotfl2: Steve is awesome! ( you can choose if you want to tell him that! )

We got a Sony PJ200E, seems ok from the little we've used it. Typical male, DH was particularly attracted to the projector it has! Actually works quite well and better than I thought it would... Also got it about $60 cheaper online than we could in store!

I still have to sort out the phone thing, does you're phone need to be unlocked and what exactly does that mean?

I totally want a muppet!!

It is going soo fast! I am madly making lists everywhere and writing down things as I remember them to either buy or take or have on the plane with us!!
