I enjoyed the photos from your "tour" of LTT. I've eaten there a few times but never really did a lot of looking around at the other rooms. What great details!

I'm glad you enjoyed the LTT tour

We've never eaten at LTT but your review makes it sound yummy. I love the decor inside. Such details! There are just so many choices of where to eat and it's so hard because you want to try new places but fit in some old faves too. Decisions, decisions.

I completely understand. It is so hard for me to choose restaurants and resrts because I have favorites yet I always want to try new ones too

Oh goodness, throw the resorts into the mix and no wonder people need to start planning months in advance! Although, the price points of the resorts definitely make the decisions a bit easier.

When we last left off we were heading out of the restaurant and off to more rides! I really wanted to ride the Haunted Mansion and check out the new queue so we headed over there first. Once we got there we found out it was temporarily closed To kill time before it re-opened my mom suggested riding a ride that was now open but had been closed on our last trip.

On our way over to the ride.

IT'S A SMALL WORLD! My mom was very excited to ride this again!

I am a bit concerned about what that doll is doing to that frog

During the ride I pointed out Hidden Mickey's to DD which she enjoyed and would yell over my mom and I to her mom so her mom could know where they were as well.

Oh there you are Perry!

This room is white because all colors of light blended together create white signifying the blending of all of the nationalities in the world.

Who doesn't love a signing goose?!

After It's a Small World we headed back to the Haunted Mansion to see if it was open. It was!!!! I tried not to run to the new queue as we got in line!

I had so much fun in this line! I love the new busts that are out and enjoyed reading the little poems on them!

I think a hitch hiking ghost tried to get into my picture! I didn't realize the weird light in the corner until I posted this pic on the TR!

When you played the piano it would spit out mist and it really surprised me the first time I did it!

This would bubble up and then the ghost would sneeze water all of the place! The barnacles also shot out water when you put your finger over one!

This bookcase had books that would pop out and I am not sure what the point is in that but I had fun pushing them back in to place!

This was my favorite part! You would hear a poem about how someone died then you would have to shout out the last line of the poem! I was acting like a 5 year old shouting out the answers!

I love the new queue and I am so impressed by the interactive queues! I am really hoping they add more of these because they are just as much fun as riding the ride!


We rode the ride and I loved the new hitchhiking ghosts area! Mine and DD's heads were switched and once we got them back it was time to search out more pins.

After pin trading our way to Big Thunder Mountain Railroad we found out it was closed The park was going to be closing soon as well so there wasn't much hope that it would open before it closed. DD was pretty upset about it but after asking if she would rather go off to another ride or pin trade she chose pin trading and seemed much better.

On our way to main street we stopped at the bathrooms and while we were waiting DD wanted to have her picture taken.

After this was taken she asked me if I wanted to see her act like a pirate. Of course I did This is her acting like a pirate

She is so adorable!


We continued on our way and once we got to the end of Main Street it was time to say goodbye. They had both had a late night the night before and were going to be heading back to their hotel. After hugs and a bit of sadness from splitting up with our new friends it was time for my mom and I to head off to our next park!

Too cute!!! I love her pirate face! I'm glad you enjoyed the new queue! I can't wait to see it!

I thought it was adorable and I loved how she positioned her arm in a "yohoing" way

It is so amazing! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

So happy IASW is open again...I missed riding it last year

Sounds like you guys had a blast in the queue for HM...I can't wait to see it! That makes standing in line so much easier Love the pirate pose!

 

[mousegear]

I didn't even know that there was new addition to Haunted Mansion. That should be something else to look foward to. Just too many things to do and too short of vacation. I think we need more like two week vacation to WDW not one. Only thing that's blocking me is that DS 7 needs to be in school and already guilty pulling him out for a week.

My mom was very excited! I am not a huge fan of IASW but it made my mom happy so we rode it!

It was so much fun! There actually wasn't a line and one of the CMs had to come out in to the new queue and hurry people up There were only 4 other people in our stretching room

It is so awesome! I love this ride and the additions are amazing!

Aw 2 weeks would be great but it is amazing how much you can do in one week! Plus whatever you don't do just gives you a reason to go back

She is too cute with her pirate pose, so adorable.

The new que looks like so much fun, I'm so glad they added this.

Did they add the disney characters in the rooms at IASW? Just curious cause this is what they did to the DLR one when it was down for refurb for so long and it's so adorable.

Can't wait for more

I thought that was so funny! She does look really cute!

It was tons of fun!

No they didn't I was hoping they would but oh well. The only real difference was the line was now reversed.

Okay, so where are the Hidden Mickeys in Small World?
I may have to get a tour from the Princess next time we try it!

And what did you think of the new Haunted Mansion queue?
Did you solve the mystery of the busts at the beginning?
What did Princess say when the ghosts switched your heads at the end?

And you totally have to send me those canon pics of the Pirate Princess!

 

[thecapells]

Princess also just told me that she may have forgotten where the Hidden Mickeys are in Small World.
However, she apparently pointed out all of the Epic Mickey references on your ride.

There are Hidden Mickey leaves on a vine near the jungle scene. There used to be more but I think they took our the koalas with a Mickey shaped head because I didn't see them this time

I loved it! It was a lot of fun and there was so much to see and do!

No I didn't but I plan on doing that next time!

I don't remember I don't think she said anything I was too busy being excited though

They were adorable and I loved that she just asked me if I wanted to take her picture

Yeah it was just a brief point out so listed above is where they are.

She did I forgot about that! We had a great chat about Epic Mickey
