Today began with me sleeping in a bit as DCA doesn't open until 10. The first meet of the day was Disney Geeks to the Rescue hosted by the Teenage Disney Geek (This was his first ride on Monster Inc: Mike and Sulley to the Rescue). After this meet it was time to grab fast passes for Tower of Terror later in the day. By now it was time for the DPN Meet and Greet / Lunch @ the Pacific Wharf this was just as it sounds a meet to have lunch. During lunch a group of us decided to head over to the Hyperion theater to see the Aladdin show. Before that we made a side trip to Disney Animation we toured threw it and stopped at a place where you could insert your voice in to a scene from a Disney Movie. Josh and I did a scene from Aladdin with Iago and Jafar. I attempted a some what good impersonation of Iago. After that we went up the Hollywood Pictures Backlot street. This street is a lot like Hollywood boulevard in DHS, except you have Muppet Vision 3d, Monsters Inc: Mike and Sulley to the Rescue, Disney Animation, and the Hyperion Theater, also the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror is there too. After Aladdin it was time for The Magic Never Ends’ Toy Story Mania Smackdown hosted by the Magic Never ends crew. Again another group ride threw. Once that was it was almost time for The Big D’s Cali Screamin’ Meet to begin a few of us decided not to go on it so we just hung around and waited. During this time a dew of us decided to go back to Disney Animation to try our hads at drawing a Disney charater. We ended up drawing Doppey, my drawing of him ended up looking like the crepy psesed drawf that they kewep locked in the basment that no one ever saw. Sorry no picture of it as it would have broken my camra or have been censered by this comunity.

Hey there!
I love the pictures from DL. I was thinking of taking my boy there for Spring Break next year! Thought it would be fun to spend some time on the west coast! I plane tickets are going to be the kicker though!

Maybe I will see you in 10 days!! I am thinking of taking the boys to MNSSHP on the 4th as well. However we may not get the tickets until we get there!

Plane tickets can defenitly be the worst for going out there but you can find deals sometimes. Disneyland is a lot of fun but beware there are a lot of dead end paths that you think would lead somewhere but don't, and also attractions aren't where they are supposed to be.

I am now at 9 days and I still haven't started packing nor have I thought about what I need to pack.

 

[EastYorkDisneyFan]

8 days!!

 

[EastYorkDisneyFan]

Somewhere in there I and group of others end up in a bugs life. Just a word of caution in the part where the hornets "sting" you don't lean forward a sit back hard just after that.

Next up was a group ride on the Tower of Terror, with the Disney Park Hoppin' Party Podcast. This was also my first ride on Tower of Terror, which may have been a mistake admitting it to people. We entered into the attraction and head in to the pre-show area, and then headed to the boiler room. Well we were geting ready to load I looked over at the sating map next too the elevator and relized that I was in the Front Row .

 

[EastYorkDisneyFan]

Please keep my Grandfather in your thoughts and prayers as he is not well.

 

[EastYorkDisneyFan]

Thanks for any thoughts and prayers for my grandfather, he woke up this morning and apologized for ruining everyone's weekend.

 

[Kymie]

So glad he is doing well!

Ok 4 days to go and I need to finish this section of my report before I leave.

So after Tower of Terror I decided to head out with a group of people who were going back to Disneyland for the day as I was getting a little tired of DCA. We headed over to Disneyland where I learned that there was a group heading to the Blue Bayou for dinner, I figured if they told me to go somewhere else I would, I never got told that and had a great time with about 30 people at one table in the Blue Bayou. For dinner I had the New Orleans style Gumbo, and the [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Five-Pepper Roast New York[/FONT][FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]. After dinner a group of us rode the Many adventurees of winniw the pooh, some people left either to go home or go to one of the last meets of WestFest. Well the rest of us satyed and took the train to Tomorowland to get in a few more rides. The trian soon arived and we were told by the conductor that the train would be going out of service when it got to toon town, so when we got there we waited for the next train. Then we rode Space Mountian using a couple of passes obtained when California Scremin went 101 earlier that day. The we heded to Star Tours where a person in the row in front of us had seen it way to many times and was providing his own comentary. Up next was another ride on buzz light year and then back to the train to go through the grand Canyon Diarama. We got off at main streert for a bity of shopping and then headed over to Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room for dole whips and to see the show. Inside ther3e was agroup of about 10 of us on one side of the room and a group of 2 that came in shortly after us. The host needed someone to help her wake up Jose so we all voluntired Keegan (The teenage Disney Geek) to do it, I think he was probobly the most excited teenager to ever do it. After sininging along with the birdies and the Tikis, it was time to go. I said my goodbyes to some people as they would be leaving for there homes I on the other hand had another day to spend in the parks.

Ok so I have one day left until I'm in Disney World again.

 

[EastYorkDisneyFan]

Today began with a Segway tour of DCA. It was very interesting doing this amongst the construction walls. At the end of it we stopped for pictures.

After that I went back to my room to grab something that I had lefty behind. When I returned to DCA I decided to head to Muppet Vision 3d.

The 3d film Vault in the Queue

The ship from Pigs in space.

After that I explored more of DCA and saw that Mickey's Fun Wheel was working and taking passengers. So I went and took a ride in one of the non - swinging cars. While I was getting on I saw Joel from the DPN (he does the video for the meandering mouse podcast) getting on to one of the swinging cars. After that we headed to Pizza Oom Mow Mow. After lunch we headed over to the Tower of Terror and then to playhouse Disney as Joel wanted to tape it for the meandering mouse podcast. After that we headed over to the Redwood Creek Challenge Trail to view the Brother Bear Totem ceremony after the show they had a meet and greet with the stars of brother bear. Joel was nice enough to take my pictur with them and later send them to me.

After that we met up with Pat (POD, he's the one working on the Disney Family Museum) and we headed to Toy Story Midway Mania. Well we were in the queue I got a voice mail from Disneyland Reservations saying that my reservation for Story Tellers had been candled due to a problem in the reasturant. Up next we viewed the Pixar Play parade, a couple of times we had to run to avoid the water that they isist on sparying at you during it. After that we begain to head out as DCA was closing soon, on the way out we stopped and rode Soarng over California. Then we headed over to Disneyland. Once there we rode the matterhorn, Spacemoutian and then I went on the [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Tomorrowland Autopia, which has a really long line and for some reason it has FasstPass. After cruising the freeways of Tomorowland (we so needd this version in WDW) I headed over to [/FONT][FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Tomorrowland Terrace to get some dinner then I goty on the monorail and took it back to my hotel to pack up as I would be leaving the next morning.
