"Excuse me, your child can NOT go on stage with Mickey":Jan 2013 TR! updates x 3! 6/5

[lvcourtneyy]

Wow! You guys got so much done that morning! I love all of the Hollywood outfits for the characters-that's one place we've never met them. The PP borders are really cute too! I haven't seen that Minnie one before.

Love that Mickey was fist bumping with your BF! That's the kind of stuff that you remember!

We did get a lot done! We work well with AM EMH! They're kinda hard to meet because their last set is at like 11 and at that point, most of us are making good use of our early morning touring hours.

The non-cookie cutter character interactions definitely stand out!

Thank you for reading!

Hey guys! I'm back with another update! I'd love to hear more about anyone who may be reading so feel free to stop in with a comment! Whether it's a comment on an update, a story about your trip, a story about your life or anything, I'd love to hear from you!
*************************************************************

So when we left off, we had just met a slew of characters. At this point in our day, we had no real plans. So we kinda just wandered a bit and took in the sites while deciding what to do. It was fun at the time but my feet weren't too thrilled later on

We looked at Voyage of the Little Mermaid but the line was pretty insane so we moved on.

While wandering, we found a friend!

Toy Story was of course, still mania.

We were gonna wait on line for Woody and Buzz but the CM running the line said it would be about a 60 minute wait at that point so we continued on.

I think we were killing time before the next Beauty and the Beast show at this point so we decided to go try to find some Monsters Inc friends and then double back.

We bypassed Studio Backlot Tour and found:

No one was out when we got there (10:57) but a CM said Mike would be out any minute so we jumped in the non-existant line!

Then at 10:59, we were playing with a Monster.

I was pretty sad that Sully didn't come out but the CM said he wasn't meeting that day. BOO!

Beauty and the Beast started at 11:45 or something like that so we decided to slowly head that way.

We sat in the first row behind the control pit thing and I thought it'd be the perfect spot to take pictures from but obviously I was wrong because there are people's heads in all my pictures. I also said I was gonna take less pictures and focus on enjoying the show since I took so many last time. I don't think it worked.

This new update is just all the rest of my B&TB pictures! I'm sorry if it bores you but I really did only pick out my favorites to share with you but I love the show too much that I guess I have too many favorites.

Loving your trip report so far! I lingered for so long on those BTB pics! It's one of our favorites, and seeing pictures of it always makes me happy.

Can't wait for the next update!

Thank you so much! I adore BTB! It and FOTLK are definitely my favorite Disney shows. They're such high quality for in-park shows. I'm in love and can't help filming or taking 34345332 pictures Glad you appreciate them!

I just snuck a peek at your PTR. How exciting that you're going in October! I'm really hoping to make it down this Fall but I'm not entirely sure it's going to happen I'm excited to read about how you plan your trip!

Thank you for popping in!

 

[MK2010]

I love BatB! You can never have too many pics, right?

 

[Enchantress01]

Yay! Another update!

You just have the best timing when it comes to meet & greets and some great experiences too.

The B&TB pics are beautiful - you can never have enough pics of anything Disney-related. It's funny, on past trips, it never really mattered to me whether I saw that show or not. But now, I really want to see it. I've heard that particular Gaston is really into his role and very entertaining too. Thanks for a great preview!

I do too! I live on the philosophy that you can never have enough pictures Glad someone agrees with me cause most people I know in real life are a little sick of it

Yay! Another update!

Some of our timing was definitely pure luck, but a good amount of it was me stalking characters Kenny the Pirate's character locator app sure helps enable my addiction!

I felt the same about Disney shows before I saw any. I figured that since I'd seen so many Broadway and Cirque shows, the Disney park version couldn't live up but I was proved wrong! Definitely make it a point to hit B&tB and FOTLK! I don't think you'll regret it. I have seen that Gaston in a lot of TRs and he was spectacular! Definitely lives up to the hype!

Thank you for reading!

I love your B&B Live pics! It's really made me look forward to seeing it. And you guys seem to have totally worked out the Meet'n'Greet timing!

I've been reading along and enjoying! Seems like you guys had a great trip so far!

You definitely can't take too many Beauty and the Beast pictures!!!! LOVE that show!

 

[ILGoofy]

Enjoying things so far!

I always sit in that row behind the soundboards. I like watching the tech guys.

Thank you! B&tB is totally amazing! Hahaha we definitely became seasoned character stalkers on this trip!

Beauty and the Beast is so amazing! I'm so jealous that you had a Disney honeymoon! I'm gonna have to pop over to your TR to read about how magical it is!

I actually did find myself watching the tech guys a few times. And I noticed that they had a little set of Beauty and the Beast figurines on the desk with them that I had when I was little! I only have the beast one still though

Thanks for reading!

Joining in! I'm enjoying your trip report so far! Me and my DBF actually went around the exact same time as you so it's nice to read about someone else's experiences from that time!!

That's pretty funny! I see you guys stayed at Pop too! Where was your room? I wonder if we ever crossed paths!

Thanks for joining in!!

We were in the 70s building! It would be pretty funny if we did cross paths!

Oh great! Now I'll have to see B&TB twice. Once to watch the stage and once to watch the techy guys! I'm ridiculous, I love anything technical and hate to miss any Disney detail!!! Too cute about the figurines.

Thanks for the app tip Courtney. That and sharpening my character stalking skills will really come in handy.

 

[tammilynne]

I just found your trip report and read through all of it

Loved your pictures!

 

[dragonflydoll2]

Just started reading your report, Loving it!!!

 

[shan23877]

Great BatB photos! I would have been watching the tech guys too.

You can't have too many BatB pics-that's why I have 1000.
