I'm signing on for more. Now, I gotta go back and catch up with what I've missed so far.
Wow! I am the first to get to post on your Expo adventures. I love to read your descriptions ...even if there were no photos, I can totally picture what was going on. Plus you are "wicked" funny (Boston term)
Case in point. I really wanted to see Lasseter's morning presentation on Sunday. In order to do this, we HAD to miss the Muppets presentation that followed. We just can't be in two places at once and it left us kinda down. By the time we got out cameras and cell phones, we missed the Muppet line's closure.
I'm in for your TR!!! I'm glad that I can experience this vicariously through you because I don't think I have what it takes to wait in all those lines.
Yet another AMAZING TR!
Can't wait for more! And what a cute restaurant!
Boy, what an amazing and long day! I think that you should write a guide for those who will attend next year!

Oh yum! That dessert made me want to jump up and make a sundae for myself!
I am TOTALLY craving a sundae now! I want ice cream sooooo badly, right now! If she starts posting cakes, I'm doooomed!
Yay!!! One more thing I can say I lived vicariously through you!!I wanted to go SO bad!! Thanks for letting us really know how it was there with the lines and everything though. That really let me know how it will be if I can talk hubby into going next year. That plan is going well so far!!
Can't wait to read more!!
Subbing in!
I love the 70s vibe of the Hilton, makes me giggle a little bit
and is that a hidden mickey I see in the mosaic?![]()
DH2B and I do the EXACT same thing!!!! At home, we just hit mute or change the channel when a commercial comes on. But if we're in the theater and a trailer comes on for something we really want to see, we'll cover our ears, slump down, turn into face each other and (quietly) make jibberish sounds so we don't hear or see it.I think that may have just *officially* made us bigger nerds.

Whenever people spend money on something, they always sugarcoat it as if to justify the cost to themselves.
Oh Carrie....
This review is so interesting, even with the transparent pictures that plague my work computer.I sincerely hope I get some free time to view your pics tonight, Your report is hysterical. I honestly feel like I am there with you! And dinner.....yum!
I'm here too........
Love that you got to see the Imagineering legends even if it was through the guy in front of you had a big fat head.You got to see a lot of really cool people in one day. Those lines would have been frustrating though. I love that Patrick came to your rescue just as you were about to burst into tears.
Carrie loving the TR! I am so glad you are talking about all the good and bad things that happened. It feels like I am walking or running around with you.

This is great Carrie!I've never been to a convention and had NO idea what the D23 could possibly be like. Frankly, I'm more than a little intimidated at this point!

Awesome TR LurkyLoo! Looks like a mighty nifty time. The description of the color coded hosts had me cracking up. I'm glad Patrick managed to rescue you from the despair of entrance denial and provide you with much needed, yet over priced sculptured confectioneries. Can't wait to read more!
The MPAA is always moaning about how nobody goes to the movies anymore and they think it's b/c of online piracy (which most of us wouldn't have a clue how to do). I say it's because the trailers give so much away, you don't even have to see the movie anymore.
2. I miss the Nicholas Cage circa Valley Girl days...he was awesome in that movie (yes, I'm serious). It actually was a very realistic 80's film and I believe it was pre-John Hughes movies...

Seriously, you HAVE to find another job!![]()
. Patrick calls the look of the movie "Thomas Kinkade by way of Fangoria magazine," and I told him if anyone reading my trip report has actually heard of Fangoria magazine, he gets a prize.

Oooh. So cool that you got to see Captian Jack and Kermit in the same venueMaybe they'll collaborate on something in the future
Sounds like a neat day so far, can't wait to hear more!
