PSA for AP holders in the parks tomorrow (11/7):

Disneyland Resort AP Preview Of Big Hero 6 Meet and Greet Announced

I'm really bummed that this requires an AP, but enjoy it if you've got one.

My birthday is a day after your mom's. I signed up yesterday and got my gift certificate within a couple of minutes.

Corinna

Thank you. Yes she got hers and we all got our Earl of Sandwich ones too!

 

[dolphingirl47]

I am all packed and ready to go. I still have to work tomorrow and then I am going straight from work to the airport. We fly out on Monday morning.

How exciting! We have 10 more days before we leave! DD mentioned to me that we should start watching/re-watching more Disney movies to get us into the mood! Finally saw 'Up' yesterday, what a sweet movie! Semi packed, plane tickets/hotels confirmed, received Photopass Plus, US money exchanged and learning how to use DH SLR camera. Also, have to bite the bullet and get our Premium Annual Passes - just trying to hold off paying all that $$$ for it!

On ABC Family Channel they were playing Disney movies today! We watched Bug's Life, Wall-ee, & then I recorded Up & Sleeping Beauty! Yes, "Up" is very sweet, a bit sad but very good story overall! I'm also semi-packed, all our itineraries are put in the folder, didn't receive PP, but I have the printout and they told me that's all I would need (don't know what happened to my order!) don't have to exchange $$. As far as a new camera, I am learning how to use my iPhone 6, haven't used all the features yet! How exciting to be able to get annual passes! Bucket list item!

Exciting! We are heading down to Huntington for a few days before our Disney visit, so when we head over, it won't be the same as usual, but kind of nice! Enjoy your trip!!

By the way, if any DISers were at Disneyland Friday evening (11/7) and saw a young Elsa with a glowing blue cape, that was us. My DD9 had gone to A&E Boutique that day for her hair, and was wearing this Elsa costume, plus we attached blue electroluminescent wire (EL wire) to the cape. I can't even count how many compliments and exclamations we got, both direct and overheard, from adults and children. She's like a Pied Piper for little girls when she wears that thing.

I would post a photo but my wife has it and we are apart for the next week, so it may have to wait for a bit.

I haven't watch Wall-ee yet. But DD has so we'll see if I can get to it before we leave!

We get annual passes because DD (12) and I decided that we are going to visit DL every year because it is our happy place We still go on yearly family vacation with DH and DD (18) but Disney is our special place. Like my DD says, it's a place where she can carry Lotso around and not be judged!

Checking in


I'll be there Nov 24-29 with my family.

Feeling a little overwhelmed with trying to plan a schedule. Thinking of doing the Touring Plans itinerary thing.


Good idea or no?

 

[KittyKat1978]

I just made a dinner reservation at Storytellers for Dec 2, and the buffet says it will be a Thanksgiving buffet. I went to Storytellers for dinner the first week of Dec in 2012 and it was a normal buffet.

Anyone been there last year this time? Was it still a Thanksgiving buffet the first week of Dec?

If no one knows, do you know who I can call to find out?

 

[Karin1984]

One more night!
Or more precisely, about 9 hours to go before I leave the house and about 11 hours to go before flying!

 

[butterflymouse]

I'm going with a couple of my sisters November 20-21. Last visit before our annual passes expire.

Time seems to be standing still!

 

[DharmaLou]

9 days! Single digits! And we're stuck in a polar vortex here in Denver, it was -1 this morning when I brought DD to school, and we've had about an inch of snow. It'll be warmer by next week, but still!

 

[Guiness92]

9 days for us too. Cannot wait!! It will be our first time spending Thanksgiving in magic Kingdom.
