i've never wanted silly bandz till i saw these. i think i MUST get these when i go just because of the mickey ice cream bar

I sometimes work at my girl's former elementary school as Noon Duty, and these silly bands are the rave! Last year it was small erasers, this year rubber bands. The silly bands are not allowed because some kids shoot them at each other and others will fight over them. What can I tell you? First graders are a hard bunch!

i'm actually planning on watching it, looks like my kind of show

It's a great show and I'm not even that big of a sci-fi fan or anything. If you do plan on watching it, I recommend starting with season 1....which they have on Netflix and Netflix Streaming (it stars Christopher Eccleston as the Doctor and his companion is Rose Tyler, played by Billie Piper.)

Doctor Nine....my favorite doctor! Good place to start!

Don't forget all the old shows too. Love Tom Baker!

Matt Smith did an incredible job this season.

2 more days 'till we leave!! Can't wait to see all the decorations!!
Anyone know when we might be able to see Matt & Victoria's pictures? I keep hoping to see them before I leave!

I agree, Matt was great! I've never seen the old shows. My husband likes them though.

I was noticing your signature. A 12 year old, 11 year old twins, a 10 year old, and a 6 year old?! I bet the parks are a blast for you guys!

How was parking? We were planning on using the Mickey and Friends parking structure and arriving around the time we can enter the park for the party on Tuesday (3 ?). I was just wondering if spaces were readily available and/or what a good back up plan would be. I am aware of the Toy Story lot but don't know where that is.

Thanks!

Peri is also a companion on Doctor Who from long ago (prior to the current Doctor Who shows)

Doctor Who premiered on the day That JFK was shot in Dallas - of course it premiered in England. Just mentioning so you can see this is VERY LONG RUNNING show!

I love love love Dr. Who! I've even watched a couple episodes from the 70s on Netflix! David Tennant is my Doctor

Okay, Im going to stoping looking at the weather! It once said rain on Wed (60%) now no rain, yesterday it said 94 for Sunday now 86......ugh. So Im just going to keep the shorts and t-shirts I have packed with a light jacket and call it good. Going to put the luggage in the car and try not to think about it. Worst thing I have to go to Target and get some clothes.

Im done, we leave TOMORROW.

I *tried* looking at the pics of all the merchandise, but all I saw were boxes saying I needed to update to Photobucket Pro I have a friend asking me to get Halloween themed Minnie Mouse ears ... anyone have a pic? Also, are they ears or are they headbands?

Thanks,
Tigger

Tiggerholic - I would have replied to your post faster but I have been having lots of trouble with my Internet signal since last night and my service is very unstable. I can't get online when I need to and when I do, I can't go to all the websites - like the DIS - that I need to get to!

Anyway, the Photobucket Pro box that you're seeing is only on VictoriaAndMatt's posts. Her photos are not showing because the bandwidth was exceeded in her Photobucket account. Those photos will reappear again soon, in the next couple of weeks.

However, if you look at any other post with merchandise photos from other DIS'ers, you will see that the problems were only with VictoriaAndMatt's posts and that all the photos in other posts appear with no trouble.

Go to the Table of Contents on the first page/in the first post of this thread, look under the "Merchandise" heading, and click on any link except for VictoriaAndMatt's link, and you will see all the wonderful photos!!

By the way, there are Minnie "witch ears" that are sold in the parks, though I don't think anyone has posted a photo yet.

The rain is over for now (well after this morning it will be). It is supposed to be dry and warm over the weekend in SoCal. I think you will be safe with no rain gear! In fact, right now my Yahoo weather icon is showing it to be 59 degrees (YAY!!), but by Saturday it will be in the 80's.

Even if the temperature prediction is off by a few degrees when the weekend arrives, it won't be that drastically far from what they are predicting. We are only a couple of days from the weekend, so if the forecasts are saying it's going to be warm, it will be warm!

Hi All! I did a quick solo trip on yesterday and Tuesday, just couldn't wait to go with DH next week!

I can't find the posts in this thread, but I remember a few folks being disappointed that the orange Halloween shirt with all the characters was in kids sizes only. Just wanted to let you know that I saw it in World of Disney in adults sizes!! I even saw a XXL, which can be hard to find!

Sadly I didn't find any Mickey Popcorn Buckets. Hopefully next week they will have them.

 

[srauchbauer]

wow nine days and counting I better start some serious planning and packing.

I got lucky last Saturday to get a Mickey ghost bucket, the popcorn stand near Soarin had 1 box of 15 and they went fast!

I was told by another CM at a popcorn stand that they will be getting more in by Oct 14th!

Going on a one-day solo trip October 13. Sounds like no Mickey Ghost bucket for me then. Oh well, I am still suffering for one-day-park-hopper-sticker-shock.....Pictures will be my suvies.

Ok so I just wanted to remind everyone that—TA-DA! Electronica starts tomorrow.. I know I know its not very halloween and the mad villagers will come after me with the fire and pitchforks, but it is still apart of this month’s festivities at Disneyland resort(even though it has zero Halloween décor)….

And I got the review thread and ready! I got my countdown going!!! So anybody else going to be there tomorrow night to help me do the worm? We can bring the 80’s back!

Miceage did a review on the Halloween party

http://miceage.micechat.com/suekruse/sk100710a.htm

I read Miceage review and was very pleased that Sue Kruse's article was very informative. I was also happy with her list of treats she got at Friday's Party: Milky Way, Snickers, Kit Kat, M&Ms, Reese's, Skittles, Nestle’s Crunch Bars, Almond Joy, Ghirardelli, Tootsie Rolls and freeze-dried apples (and the occasional box of raisins). Looking forward to getting my goodies.
