Which of the Fab Five is your favorite?
Probably Minnie, as well.
Who's the prettiest Disney Princess?
I love Belle because she's a reader! But I think the new kid on the block, Tianna, is gorgeous!
Who's the greatest Disney Prince?
Prince Phillip from Sleeping Beauty (he had the most character!) I also liked Aladdin...technically, a prince after he married Jasmine, right?
Who's the best villain?
Hmmm....Maleficent was pretty freaky when I ws a kid.
Have you ever dressed up as a Disney Character?
Surprisingly enough, I don't think I ever did.
Are there any Disney Characters that you simply cannot stand?
Right now, we're just branching into the more "Disney Channel" phase than Playhouse Disney...I'm NOT a Hannah Montana fan.
Which movie was your favorite?
My all-time favorite as a kid was the Rescuers. I think I saw it five times - and that was before even VHS tapes! Lately, I could watch Aladdin and Beauty and the Beast over and over again. But there aren't many I WOULDN'T watch like that...
Which movie made you cry?
The Lion King - when Mufasa died.
Have you ever been to Disneyland?
No, but my brother lives less than an hour away, and I WILL make it out there to visit him one of these days!
Have you ever been to Disney World?
Oh, yes! As you can see from my sig...
Which park is the best?
MK, but Epcot is a close second.
What's your favorite ride?
Soarin'
What's your least favorite ride?
It's not really a ride, but we didn't enjoy the Tiki Room much at all!
Would you ever work for Disney?
Yes!! I'm with Shelley - we can be snowbirds down there together. Of course, my dream job for Disney would be singing in a show...but there aren't too many retirement-age characters that sing in Disney shows!!
Which is the best show at Disney?
Ooh, tough one. We loved Nemo and Illuminations last year. But I also enjoyed FOTLK, though I haven't seen it since 2000!
Which is the best restaurant?
Well, we've done mostly character meals lately...I loved the Brown Derby in 2000, and we enjoyed the Garden Grill last trip.
Which is the best hotel on Disney property?
I'd stay at the Poly in a heartbeat!
Now, what are we interested in the most on this trip? These are probably the tops...
- Star Wars Weekends (we just finished watching the new episode of Clone Wars before the kids went to bed...I've had to surrender to this one. I was actually quite a fan when I was young, so I can kinda sorta keep up with DH as he shows off all of his SW geekiness...)
- Bippidy Boppity Boutique - Haley is SOOOO excited about this! She's been talking about it since she noticed girls that had been done up on our last trip. She doesn't know it, but my mom is splitting the bill with me to get her the whole kit and caboodle - dress and all! It's a ton of money, but she'll almost be 9, and how many more times will she want to do this (and not be Hannah Montana!!!!
)
- Going with my mom and aunt. My mom loves Disney, but since Dad doesn't want to go back (he's decided that four trips is plenty....
) she hadn't been able to. When we asked my Aunt Deedee to come along, though, she was absolutely ecstatic, and Mom had an instant roomie, so we were set! They're just as excited as we are now...well, ok, not quite, but almost!
- Maybe having an "adult night" while we're there. I love going with my kids, but there are things they just don't want to do! We had several hours where my in-laws took the kids in 2007 and we shopped and hit the MK with Tim and Shelley, and that was a ton of fun! I'm thinking, with so many of us going, that it won't be a problem to do it this time, too.
- Staying for a week!! We haven't gone for this long since I was a kid. I want to be able to take at least a slightly more relaxed pace than usual...in other words, I don't want to need to sleep for two days straight to make up for my vacation!
- CBR! Thanks to the pictures here on the DIS, I'm really excited about it. I love the idea of staying in a more centralized area (we have stayed at ASMo the past three trips), and I am also looking forward to the bigger rooms!
Ok, three posts in a row kinda sorta makes up for all my time away.
I'll try to come back with some more dinner ideas (and some advice on BBB from anyone who might have tried it before) later this weekend.
