Yahoo! I was really bummed that when I finally got through on the passholder website the 11/3 date was all booked but DH and I were going to take our chances and stop by. We are arriving "home" on 10/26 and this past Saturday we received a call from member sevices that there was giong to be a DVC preview on 11/4 and would I be interested in attending. DUH!!!!! Had the option of the Ariel or Belle but took the Ariel. So excited!

Nice Disney magic!

We were at Magic Kingdom on Monday, 10/15. They had a dress rehearsal of both Bell's Story time and Ariel's ride.

Bell's Story time takes groups of about 10 to 20 people at a time. You start by going through the magic door from Bell's father's workshop to the castle. This is a really neat visual affect. You then enter a room where people are asked to play various role's in the story. This room has a talking wardrobe that is well done.

Finally you get to go into the Library where you put on a play for Bell. A very simple play with no real speaking parts. At the end, everyone that had a part goes up to Bell so she can say thank you. A Disney photographer captures the thank yous.

Ariel's ride is a typical continuous ride where you are taken through scenes of the story with the better tunes such as "Under the Sea" and "Kiss the Girl". Lots of animitronics. It is very well done, we went on it twice.

We also got a peek into the new restaurant. It was quite impressive.
