I don't know why I am having seconds thoughts of missing the extravaganza event on Saturday and enjoy a full day at DL. Some of my friends are not going to the event on saturday and now I am not planning on going to the event. I don't want to go to the event where I don't know anyone, but with the Sign Quest that I am doing, it would give me more time to play around at the parks. But I'll decide when the date gets closer.

I'd determine it as the date comes. It would be a bummer if you went to the show and your friends did not. But if one of them go and you don't they may be bummed. You might just let them plan what you do on Saturday.

I know Matt, when the date comes closer I will decide if I want to spend part of my Saturday at the Extravaganza event or miss it and spend time at DL and do the Sign Quest. But most of my friends are not going out to LA for that event since they can't afford to go down there and don't have time to go down. Even though it is one of the biggest YU-GI-OH! TCG events of the year, there must be reasons for them to go and not to go down there for the event.

I would like them to be there, but if they can't make it, I can spend more time on the Sign Quest around the resort. I am very looking forward to see RDCT fireworks.

Can't believe I am in the single digits and only 9 days away till my mini trip to DL. Kind of excited to do a very difficult quest in the Sign Quest at the DLR. This will be 10 times more harder than the Vehicle Ride Quest. With so rides, restaurants, shopping centers, bathrooms, etc. is going to be tough, but it is very exciting.

To get ready for my short trip, I thought to post of the signs around the DLR that I have taken in the past. Here are some pics of the signs.

Disney Showcase Store Sign


Pacific Wharf Sign


TRON Legacy 3D Sneak Peak Sign


The Golden Horseshoe Sign


Main Street Bakery at MK

I'm bored so far, so I thought to post more of the signs of the DLR before I do the Sign Quest next week. I'm just going crazy since I can't wait anymore days until my short trip to DL.

Splash Mountain Sign


The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh Sign


Hungry Bear Restaurant Sign


Disneyland Population Sign on MS RR Station


Haunted Mansion Holiday Sign


Mickey's Halloween Party Candy Station Sign


Crystal Arcade Sign


Space Mountain Ghost Galaxy Sign


Thats another 8 more so I am down 12 more and hundreds to go at the DLR.

It looks like that I have now made my decision of what I am going to do next Saturday during my trip. As you have read that I was planning on going to the YU-GI-OH! TCG Extravaganza event at the LA Convention Center on Saturday, but most of my friends are not planning on going to the event o I decided not to go. I am kind of sad that I am not going to that event.

But right I am now kind of excited to go to DL next week after I read from Dizneydaz about Family Fun Weeeknds. It was very interesting to get to see a lot of different characters that have not appeared at DL for awhile. If I have read it correctly from Dizneydaz, there will be Clara, Clarabelle, 3 little pigs etc. But I am kind of excited to see this event next week and I am going to be going crazy taking pictures and videotaping the events.

Kind of sad and now very excited to go to DL next week. I have a lot to do that week. Not only the Sign Quest and now Family Fun Weekend with Kickin' Country Weekend.

Any chance you can get down there the following week too. To film the new show about memories?

R u talking about videotaping the Kickin' Country Weekend show like Dizneydaz has taken during her vacation? When I get to DL around 12 to 1 on Friday, I am plan on going to the back side of DL and see that event. I will be taking pictures of the signs around the park when I get to the back side.

Oops. I believe u r talking about the next week after my trip next week. I would like to go back down their for another week, but I have other things to do next week and have not time to go back to DL.

No, it's called "The Magic, the Memories and You!, the times is 7:30pm, and location is Small World.

It at the bottom of the DL entertainment schedule starting on this day.

There is some stuff out on the WDW version.

I've read some reports from a disser who saw probable testing of this from the Contemporary Resort.

Thanks for clearing it up. When DL was promoting "Let the Memories Begin" campaign, it was neat to read and watch clips of families enjoying their trips to the Disney Parks. I would guess that this is similar to the projections that DL use during the Holiday season on IASWH.

Thanks for the links Matt.

It would be neat to see it, but I have no time to go down there unless I am going back to Anaheim for some event. I am trying to plan on going back to DL early June so I can see LMR, ST2 and the new parade before the summer crowds. I'm still planning on going to DL in August for the D23 Expo.

I imagine that the memories show will go for a long time. You can catch it later if need be. I just won't get a good youtube video.

lol . I would assume that you are a subscriber to my youtube account and see all these different clips? I have seen some nice Disney videos on youtube, but most of them are very shaky and not on a tripod or monopod. That just makes is so bad for watching a clip and sometimes I get dizzy from these clips. If you can wait for another 5 months, I can do that videotaping of the Memories show at IASW.

I just can't wait to leave on Thursday and head to DL on Friday. I also have to stop at my DB GF house to drop off some stuff for her. Luckily it is in OC and it is just pass DL a few miles away. I'm really going to be carrying a lot of stuff with me during my trip. I have my regular bags, camera/video camera, ice chest, DB GF supplies, and some products that I am taking for the Bakersfield Anime Convention on Sunday. Plus I have to bring my snow chains just in case if it snows on the grapevine. I am hoping that I don't have to bring it out and put them on. It was hard enough to put them on at home. I hope everything goes well this weekend.

Just 3 more Days to go to the Happiest Place on Earth.

What is wrong with me, now I am considering doing another short trip to DL during Presidents day weekend in February since my DB is planning on going down to OC to see his GF. The flights going down towards LA, OC, etc are very expensive and it would be cheaper to drive instead of fly down south. He suggests to me that if I want to go with him down to OC, I can go to DL for about 3 days and leave on Monday. The plan was to leave Friday night (he gets out of school late at night) get to the south late at night and leave on Monday afternoon and get back home. I was interested of going, but the hotel rooms that I usually stay are not available and are too expensive. I am a very picky person of where I like to stay. I am now tight on budget and I still have three more plan trips to DL later this year (early June, D23 Expo in August and my regular visit to DL during the Holiday season). I'm trying to hold back, but I might just crack later in these next few weeks.

 

[skiingfast]

Yeah I've seen some youtube video's of yours.

Watch this or at least read it over about the Memories show and I think you will want to film it. I imagine it's going to look great on Small world.

I can't believe it is only 2 more days until I am at DL. I have a lot to do during this trip the Sign Quest, Kickin' Country Weekend event, and work in Bakersfield for the Anime Convention.

I have never been to an anime convention so I can imagine that it is an interesting experience. I love the idea of the sign quest, I will love to see those.

I'm just only one day away till DL and this will be my start-up page for my signature.
