Halloween Time at Disneyland, Oct 16-19. Lots Of Pictures! Trip Report Completed

[wendylady36]

Would've been a cuter pic if you had.

Guess that will give me something to do when it's time to carve pumpkins!

That would be such a mess with her long white fur. She isn't particularly fond of baths either.

Doesn't she look, oh so, happy with me?

 

[wendylady36]

Someone just asked me to check my boss' calendar to see if she'd be out of town anytime in the next two months and low and behold, she'll be gone October 16-22!

It must have been added sometime this week when I wasn't here. I've been looking at that calendar almost everyday. My chances of getting the time off are getting slimmer by the minute. I'm still going to try my hardest to make it on my trip!!!

What???? Is this the same boss who's been gone for a month???? She needs to stay home and work!


You already bought your ticket and everything. What will you do with it??

Yep, that would be the one!

Frame it?

 

[mommaU4]

Yep, that would be the one!

Well, that's just nuts. If it were me I'd tell her you have nonrefundable tickets and need the time off. Tell her you'll bring her back something pretty from DTD.

I hope it works out. That would suck to have bought your ticket, made your tour reservation and then not make it.

As Social Distortion sings..."that's the story of my life"

I've been having quite my share of bad luck this year. I don't know why I'm such a perfect little princess I daresay, even an angel!

 

[mommaU4]

I'm such a perfect little princess I daresay, even an angel!

Um, no comment. But I do hope it works out for you. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed.

You could always just quit.

 

[wendylady36]

You could always just quit.

I was totally just thinking that! After that I thought, "then I really couldn't go!"

 

[travelmel]

OMG... your CAT!!!


OMG that cat!

I love wet cats. Man they look ticked!

Are you going to be able to go to DL? I was rooting for your list of foods to try list! Those are all things I missed as well. I hope you can make it.

EDIT:

Commando-Mel Check List
10) If a Disney commercial airs on TV there is a demand for silence. Check!

13) You are never without a fast pass in your hand - no time for lines. Check!

14) The only time they sit is when they are on a ride - no time for sitting. Check! and Check!

I MIGHT be a Commando!

Post-Trip check list:

6) They search television channels looking for Disney commercials. Check!

7) They spend hours on the internet talking to other Disney enthusiasts. Check!

8) They cry when they look at your vacation pictures. Check! - well, at least stare over and over fondly...



I'm definitely a post-trip commando!

Thanks for helping me confirm my suspicions Wendylady!

I'm off to bed now.. but I will definitely check out your video links tomorrow. Thanks for the report!

 

[tinkermell]

Wendy!!

Use the puppy dog eyes for crying out loud.




I really hope it works out OK!!

You should she the video I took! I don't remember if it was of Holly or Tabitha, but either way, she's just standing there wet and pissed off meowing. She doesn't even attempt to get out of the tub. I'm sure my snickering can be heard in the background of that video!

Are you going to be able to go to DL? I was rooting for your list of foods to try list! Those are all things I missed as well. I hope you can make it.

I should know by the middle of next week if I get to go or not. I'll be really sad if I don't get to try my list of yummy foods I've been missing out on!!!! So lets keep our fingers and toes crossed!

Isn't being a commando the best ever!? We make Disneyland all that more exciting!

You should see the looks I get when I'm telling people to be quiet during anything Disneyland related, it's like suddenly I've gone deaf and can't hear anything if someones says something...or moves an inch.

Thanks for reading my report! If you ever get the chance to check out my videos, I hope that you enjoy them!

Here, I've been practicing:

Think that'll work?

I hope, I hope, I hope I get to go!!!!!

 

[wendylady36]

SQUEEEEEEE!!!! I'm SO excited I could pee my pants!!!! (Really I could, I just drank half a pot of coffee and had a 16.9 oz Red Bull).

Anyway, the reason I'm excited is that they FINALLY put up the Happiest Haunts Tour information up on the Disneyland website!

Here's what it says:

*Hear the truth — or is it? — behind some of the most spellbinding attractions at the Disneyland® Resort.
*Listen to sympathetic stories about the often-misunderstood Disney Villains.
Learn the fascinating, centuries-old history behind the Halloween holiday.
*Experience beloved classic attractions in both Theme Parks: Twilight Zone Tower of Terror™, Snow White's Scary Adventure, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad and the superspooky Haunted Mansion Holiday!
*Receive a ghostly keepsake on your tour, as well as a savory, iconic Halloween treat.

I can't wait to get Cheryl on ToT! If my boss doesn't give me Friday off, I'll just call in sick!!!

I have, have, HAVE to go on that tour!

I like the calling in sick idea. My BIL is married to a doctor. I'll get you a note.

 

[mommaU4]

Oh, and no more coffee or Red Bull for you.

Awesome! That sounds like a great plan!!!!

But, but, but...I need my caffeine *enter puppy dog eyes here*

Thank goodness you changed your signature, I was getting so tired of your old one, it was just so yesterday!
