Sew Much Fun...13 of Cinderella's Mice head to WDW! (update 3/10 page 23)

[Tnkrbelle565]

I took one photopass picture.

I'll forgive you for that....you live in Florida

Oh wait! Lin did get the one of him, Dallas and Morgan on Test Track, so that makes 4! And yep, 2 from you! So 5, and that is probably 4 more then usual.



Did you look at it yet? If not go put it on our account.

Darn it...I still haven't emailed those pics. Doing that now! BTW, I owe you money. How do you want me to get it to you?

Can't wait for more!!

Thanks for reading!

Of course I did not nap! I was in Disney! I was in Disney alone…but I was in Disney! So I changed my clothes (it had warmed up slightly but I still needed jeans and a hoodie) and headed to DHS. The lines at the POP bus stop were crazy. I couldn’t believe it. All the lines were completely full and this was now a couple of hours after park openings. While in line, I called my family to say Hi. Everything was going well at home.

So I headed to DHS to break in that new AP. (YET ANOTHER NEW THING FOR TODAY) When I arrived, I quickly made it through the checkpoint and was immediately greeted by a CM. I thought it was one of those survey people (hard to tell since every CM was covered up with a heavy winter coat…they even have themed coats!!!!) But it wasn’t a survey CMs, it was a American Idol Experience CM. She asked me if I would like to audition for AI today. Um nope. She was persistent. “You only have to perform for 5 minutes a cappella” Now I was laughing. I informed her that nobody wants to hear me sing for 5 minutes! She told me to come check out the show later in that day then. I thanked her and was on my way.

First stop was for some Photopass Pics. ALONE!!! (are you keeping track of all my new experiences???) I’ll be posting those later. Then I headed to Toy Story Mania. Stacy and I had come up with a plan since she was running so late that I would get 1 fastpass and when the time expired I would go get another and then we would have 2 for when she arrived.

But that plan did NOT work out. I have not mentioned that besides the cheerleaders, there were large groups of Brazilian and Argentinian school girls EVERYWHERE. Now I had read on the boards about the groups but have never been “lucky” enough to run into them. I now know that their sole purpose is to take up all the FPs so that 200 of them can ride together at any given time. So when I arrived at TSM barely 2 hours after the park opened, all the FPs for the day were GONE. So annoying. The wait time was 70 minutes at that point so I decided to skip it.

I checked the show schedule and saw that Beauty and the Beast was about to start so I headed over there. I should warn you that since I was without my child to chase after, I had plenty of time to take pics. I took over a 100 of Beauty and the Beast. I won’t bore you with all of them. But I will bore you with 25 of them!!!

(is Gaston looking at me here????)

Um I think the Beast is looking at me too????

Well after enjoying that performance, I needed to find something else to do. I still had over 5 hours until Stacy arrived…what shall I do???

Holy Beauty and the Beast pictures Batman! And what kind of camera do you have? I might have asked you this already, and if I didn't I was thinking it the entire time! The pictures are just wonderful!

Got the pictures! Thanks!

It's a Canon Rebel Xt. I love it. Hence the insane amount of pics I take. I filled 3 memory cards during our 9 day trip in Sept. I have 477 pics left over after all the ones I deleted from this trip!

 

[disneymomof1]

Subbing to your report. After so many trips to the world, I can't imagine walking around by yourself. I hope you had a great time !!

Thanks for reading. It was pretty strange, I'll tell ya. I didn't know what to do with myself.

Since I had so much time to waste I wandered around the entire park. I went to the StarTours store to see if they had Princess Leia Polly Pocket type toys that the Diamond clan found on their trip but alas, I couldn’t find them.
So I went back to Pixar Place to check the TSM situation. Yup 90 minutes now. So not waiting 1 ½ hours for that ride…even if I did have time to kill. So I continued to wander back up to the Chinese Theatre for the Movie Ride.

Yet again I took a lot of pics that I will now bore you with. I will warn you. There are a lot of light fixtures/lamp pics. Those are a particular favor for a fellow DISer who just loves how Disney carries the theming into the lights.

We had the gangster scenario. Seems like I rarely get the other one. Odd!

Here’s a little before and after of our hijacker!

Does this Munchkin look like Joan Rivers to anyone else????

Well there was another 20 minutes spent…now what to do?

 

[Tnkrbelle565]

Well it was off to Little Mermaid…that’s where I was heading. And surprise, surprise, I took an insane number of pictures. About 80 of them. I think I’m so thrilled that I have a camera that can take pics without the flash, I abuse that power!

I didn’t take a pic of the kiss at the end because it annoys me. Why don’t Ariel and Eric really kiss? I mean I guess maybe they don’t like each other but that’s why it’s called acting. All the other princes and princesses kiss. And this is really obvious that they are pretending to kiss. Who can I call at Disney about this???

 

[jessica52877]

I love the Ursula picture!

 

[Tnkrbelle565]

I love the Ursula picture!

Thank you! Don't be afraid to "borrow" any pics! I'm certainly going to borrow yours since I'm not IN any of mine!

Thanks for joining in...we have to all hurry up and finish these reports. Cathy has to sew 24 OUTFITS She has no time to spare

Hey, hey, I did take some pictures. . . and I carried that big camera around all weekend. . .you just had cute lens bags and seemed smarter about it than I did. I am smart enough to know when I am not the smart one! Plus, every.single.time I tried to use my camera, someone else stuck their big head or their camera in front of it. So really, there was no use in me trying to take pics, right?

I figured I could just comment here, since our report would be pretty much the same thing, just different perspective (like, I am awake in bed, trying not to be loud, and you are thinking, "does this girl ever sleep")

 

[lovesdumbo]

Loving your TR and all your photos!

Sorry you got picked for extra searching. I flew out of Manchester once and my DS (4 1/2 at the time) got picked for extra searching. Thankfully we had picked a different line than the friends we were traveling with because he had a leatherman in his carryon. They just asked me who Joseph was and when I pointed to DS they just looked at him and said you're all set.

brewed a cup of coffee on my Keurig

I have to ask do you like your Keurig? I've tried a couple of other single cup brewers and they never made my coffee hot enough. I saw that BJ's has a special on the Keurig that seems like a pretty good deal.

Was it my big head?????

You could comment on all the hours I was snoring away and you were blackberrying or playing DS trying not to wake me!!!

LOVE LOVE LOVE my Keurig. It makes the coffee plenty hot (without burning it- which is what happens with most full pot coffee makers) but I will say that if you keep it in a mug, it does get cold quicker. So you either need to drink it right away (I'm famous for starting a cup, putting it down, and then going back and finding in 20 minutes later) OR you need to put it in a travel mug. It stays really warm in that. That's what I do for work and I could drink it all morning and it would still be warm. What I love is getting to try different flavors. We get our Kcups at Gloria Jeans. You can buy a box or pick and chose a bag of different flavors. Did I mention that I love it? Although I'm really adding to my caffeine addiction!

 

[sohappy]

No! It wasn't you head. I am thinking of the 3 times I really actually tried to get pictures- safari, river boat, and train. All 3 times I kept thinking, "gonna have to crop that out"

I will add the pic I took of my oh-so-special footwear on Sunday (once you get to that section).

I am guessing that at the current time of your trip report, I am reading Confessions of a Shopaholic waiting to board a plane in Chicago. (I have some more books to send your way- Shopaholic takes Manhattan, Shopaholic ties the knot, Shopaholic and sister and Shopaholic and baby- I have a problem, I know!)

I'm really enjoying your trip report. Can't wait to read more.

 

[Diamondintheruff]

I found you!

How did it feel walking around by yourself?

Would you do it again?

I went to the StarTours store to see if they had Princess Leia Polly Pocket type toys that the Diamond clan found on their trip but alas, I couldn’t find them.

Feeling famous to be mentioned in your report. (Sorry you couldn't find any.)

Subscribing!!
I'll be back Kristine!! I need to know about all these "new" things!!
I have only been to WDW 4 times and people have asked me the same thing. "Haven't you already been there???" They just don't understand!
