~Our June '09 adventure~ I'm home! Started TR 7/2

Attraction of the Day...

SpectroMagic

I can't WAIT to see this in September!! We saw Disney's Electrical Parade in Disneyland and I loved it. My poor daughter, who was a month shy of 3 at the time, slept through the WHOLE thing- but now that she's 6, I'm sure she can make it that far this year! :banana:

Aw, I can't wait for you to see it either! I haven't been to Disneyland though.

Poor girl, she'll love it!

By the way, I see that you're from IL too! :)
 
Illuminations - I love this show. It always seems to be one of the first things that we do! I don't know why, but my family ALWAYS ends up at Epcot first, before any other park, and so we always end up watching Illuminations on our first night from somewhere in World Showcase. We are usually pretty close to England, I think! :)

SpectroMagic - :lovestruc:lovestruc:lovestruc Can't even describe. I love it. I even have the music on my ipod, and I was listening to it in the car on the way to work this morning. I can practically see the parade in my head as I am listening to the music. :) It's fabulous!
 

I love Spectro. We always stake out a spot and then I go and get Casey's. There is no better feeling then sitting on Main Street eating a hot dog and hearing the Spectro music start.

Wow! We do the exact same thing!
And I feel the exact same way.
There's gotta be something crazy going on here! :laughing:

Yep, a dog is just not a dog unless it's a Casey's on Main Street while waiting for Spectro.

I never can get good pictures of Spectro, though. I'll shoot fifty and get five good ones.

I listen to my SpectroMagic CD in the car sometimes in the afternoons. It makes me quite happy, I must say! :)

What are we going to do after you run out of attractions?
Can we play Restaurants or something?
We've gotta have a game!!!
 
Spectromagic is so cool. I vaguely remember on one trip we were riding Thunder Mountain at night and the parade was going on. That was kind of neat! Oh yes, and I love the music. :goodvibes

Haha, wow you are exactly the same, it's almost like you're related! :laughing:

I get blurry Spectro pics all the time. :headache: So I have given up on taking pics of that.

Oh man, what should I do after I do my last Attraction of the Day? Oh, I was thinking of doing each land in the MK and a memory from there in general...Then..I don't know MeMom! HELP!

I'd love to be on Big Thunder during Wishes!
 
Attraction of the Day...

SpectroMagic

We have seen it once and I was disappointed when we missed it this last time. It is so cool when the colors change from color to white. Hopefully it will fit into our schedule this time!:goodvibes

I love how it changes from color to white too! What did Juliana think of it? Let me guess, Cinderella was her favorite float?!

SpectroMagic
I love this.. this is one of my favorite parades!

It is special. :)

You are a great guesser!!!! She loved the fact that Cinderella was in her coach with the prince!:goodvibes
 
On our previous trip we did not see Spectro-Magic mostly because DS 9 and me are just to hyper and unalbe to sit in one place waiting. But this trip is all about seeing shows and parades because after reading the DIS boards I realized that we are missing out on some Disney Magic. So I cannot wait to see Spectro-Magic. Does anybody have any pointers about getting the best view and any ideas how my son and I can keep busy without getting antsy. :dance3: Girl your trip report is awesome, everyday I get to think about another attraction.
 
love love LOVE Spectro!!! So many memories of watching this with my family. I also have it on my ipod! :lmao:

You have it on your ipod? Cool!

Haha, I'm sorry but today is the last Attraction of the Day...:sad1:

You HAVE to see Spectro! We love watching it in Frontierland. There's not much of a crowd compared to watching it on Main Street. Main Street gets pretty hectic during parade/fireworks time. Something to do while you wait? We love getting a snack.
 
Attraction of the Day...Last One!

Wishes

Of course, I saved the best for last. I can't believe we're already at the end of our Attraction of the Day game! I've been doing this practically every day since February! :eek:

My favorite memory of Wishes has to be when I saw Tinkerbell fly for the very first time. I couldn't believe it. I was seeing Tink fly out of the Castle! Seriously though, the music and the fireworks are just so magical..you can't help but get goosebumps. :goodvibes

Tomorrow...we will start a new game...I was thinking...Question of the Day? Let me know if you guys have a better idea! We can do the game until May 20th, then I will start the "One Month from Now..." each day to tell you all our plans!
 
I love Wishes! The only problem is a lot of time it involves tears since I usually see it the last night of our trip. I'm always thinking how I don't want to leave and remembering all the fun we have had. I have the soundtrack in my car and I just get overwhelmed with happiness when i listen to it. It really transports me there. When the last song comes on I can just imagine all the people headed toward the buses because that is the song where the lights come up and you know it is officially over.

Oh my gosh, I totally know how you feel! I'm thinking about that last song right now! It's like, is Wishes really over already?!
 
Question where can I get the CD:confused3?

WOW WIshes the very first time I saw wishes I was speechless and amazed aww :cloud9: I remember I almost cried because I felt very special. I loved it.
 
Wishes

Here is what I wrote about Wishes in my TR.

We finished dinner and went to the pooh ride, then found a spot for Wishes. I ran to do space mountain, then met back up with the girls for the fireworks. We have seen the fireworks a few times but never from the front of the castle. I don't know fireworks are fireworks right????????? WRONG! It is worth it standing in the circle in front of the castle to see them. I was holding Juliana in one arm and taping with the other. Tinkerbell flew right over us. Juliana was in awe... I was watching her and it was the best feeling ever. I was getting chills during the song "and all our wishes will come true" There is something about that voice... maybe because it sounds like a kid. I donno but it was worth staying in the crowd to watch them. Snapped a shot of Main St. and the castle while we were trying to fight the crowds on the way out. It is a little blurry.
