Oh that opening show, I want to be there so bad right now!
I did enjoy ETWB but I don't think it will even be a once a trip show for me. Maybe once every three or four trips? It's cute but just takes up too much early morning time when I can be doing stuff I like better! I will probably end up doing it in Feb 2014 when there are kids on the trip. Of course, DH is a huge ham and if I tell him he can be a knight in the show, he may drag me there.
I almost got in line to meet Gaston on my solo trip. I'm just so awkward with meet and greets! I don't know why I get so flustered.Don't know if DH will want to meet him in October. He told me he wants to meet Donald, Remy and lots of "girl" characters whatever that means! I already burst his bubble on Remy. Told him he would have to eat at Chefs De France and he didn't like anything on the menu enough to want to eat there.
Ugh... totally didn't do Enchanted Tales. I'll def need to have someone with me for that one though, but I do want to see it once if for no reason than to see the effects.
Gawd, I totally saw the best Gaston ever mostly from his smile. It was perfect and cartoony. He is definitely a riot.
You got some great photos of the opening show. Love it.
So I've totally started this bad habit of reading updates on my phone at work and then getting interrupted with some actual job to do before I get to comment on updates. Work is seriously starting to interfere with my dis time hahaha.
Anyway I'm gonna comment on whatever I can remember!
I don't remember if I said this already but congrats on the dance competitions!! Also, of course you're already back from your trip cause I'm so far behind but I hope it was awesome and that the auditions went well! I can't wait to hear about it.
If our DHS days line up in September, we should totally meet up and request the cowboy scene on the GMR! Also, I agree with you. I'm always sad about how few of the movies from that ride I've actually seen.
Ah. I need to see One Man's Dream next trip! I've been reading books about Walt and his vision and I totally can't believe I haven't seen it.
The MK rope drop show might be the most magical thing ever! I'm glad you guys made it.
Omg Enchanted Tales. The more pictures I see of it, the more sad I get that we didn't get to do it last time. It looks amazing. And I totally agree with how awesome FLE is. Even though I'm a little disappointed the Rapunzel area is just bathrooms, the pictures of it look so great that I've never been so excited to see bathrooms in my life lol.
Gaston is amazing! I'm glad he's out for M&Gs now.
I really hope we can get to ETWB first thing in the morning. Maddie will die if she has to wait an hour for it. It's all she talks about! I can't wait to see either
Oh Gaston. I'm hoping that DD won't chicken out on meeting him at the last minute. He seems like so much fun!
Great update![]()
I was SUPER happy to see this time around that the bimbettes dresses were more movie accurate! In the movie, theres one red, one green and one yellow, and usually theyre all mixed up in the show, but today they had a super nice yellow one, and I was impressed! I mean, I know pink isnt red, but hey, it counts, right?!
I've heard a lot of stories about Disney exaggerating the wait time on Little Mermaid and a lot of that was due to it not being particularly popular out west. But I've think they've stopped that now. Honestly, I think it's wonderful.
Then again, I think I'd be happy just walking the queue it's so spectacular. Plus, Ursula is just phenomenal!
I love Under the Sea's queue so much! I too used that same stock pictures in my TR. It's such a phenomenal photo.
I absolutely love your Disneybounding outfits. I need to do that!
I'm definitely looking forward to doing Enchanted Tales with Belle. We missed that in November, so I'm super excited!
Philharmagic! My favorite!
Oh Gaston. "How can you read this?! There are no pictures!"
I'm glad that the Ariel you met was awesome!
Great update!![]()
I love all your pictures from Under the Sea!! I'm always too distracted to take photos on rides but I'm gonna try to do better in September lol. Yours came out fantastic though!
Hahaha I think I could deal with having no voice and Prince Eric. We could cheat and write things down right?
Ariel's grotto is up there on my list of favorite places ever. I think I included the same stock photo in my TR hahahaha! It's too pretty not to share!
I love your pose with Ariel!
It kills me, too, to not see them in the park and meet them in person. :'( I wanna play a very awesome board game with them too. How can they go through the trouble of making a Beauty and the Beast-themed area in New Fantasyland and NOT have the girls be meetable? Their swooning actually made Gaston into the brute we see later in the movie, and they were in support of his plan to blackmail Belle into marrying him, too.
That picture of Gaston....awesome.
Uggh. Sorry about the cranky CMs at BoG. In real life I'm pretty good about not letting people be rude to me, but at WDW I'm usually so caught off guard when they are that I just freeze up as well. Sorry about your cupcake.
Cute, cute Chip and Dale pics. Love their outfits.
Maybe I'm too picky, but that Rosetta is so thin! She's gorgeous, but so skinny! I guess it seems like she's usually a healthier 'real woman' size.![]()
Fun update! Loved the West Wing when I ate there too, but didn't know about the Beast/Prince portrait thing or the hidden mickey! Definitely will have to look for that in October
Fun fact: The hidden Jacks in the Haunted Mansion aren't visible from the ride track, except for 1. The only 1 that's sort of noticeable is in the bride's attic on the right side, directly before you move outside and turn backwards. It's a plush Jack sitting in the corner of one of the shelves. You can kind of see the stripes on his suit, but you really have to be looking for it to know it's there! The others are pretty small, like a Jack head on 1 of the book spines in the library.
Only know this because I got to do a backstage tour of HM when I was a CM! We walked the ride track before opening w/a CM who's been there FOREVER. Definitely an awesome experience!
