Joining in here, as always, I enjoy your trip reports! 


This summer we had the same thing happen to us, Frozen Ever after was always defunct for our three fastpasses. It was down all three times so we never got to ride it
. So it was fantastic to see your pictures. I'm hoping we get to ride it this August.
Yes, Joy & Sadness was a long wait for us too- but totally worth it! It was our favorite meet & greet at our trip this summer.
I'm amazed at how you ladies did an entire from rope drop to wishes touring - so impressive all the rides and character meets you did in that one day. After 4 hours i'm usually done - but we do go in August when it's super hot so maybe that's part of it.
Looking forward to reading more, Marina
Thanks for joining in!
It seems like FEA is just always plagued with technical difficulties; I'm so sorry you never got to ride it, that really stinks!
Agree about Joy & Sadness, so worth the wait and a definite favorite!
We are definitely park open to close type girls! I am sure in the summer it is tough to do that in the heat!
Oh, I can't believe I missed that little side area! We didn't see any of that or get a cute cookie! Mostly I'm just sad I didn't get a Christmas Tinkerbell picture, lol!!
I like the "Welcome to..." pillar thing with Mickey and Minnie on it. The solider one makes me think of a punching bag for some reason!
Your photopass pictures are great, and I can't even tell you how many times I almost bought those green Minnie ears in December. I love them!
Had I not read about it somewhere, I'm not sure I would have noticed it either! It was a cute little area!
Thank you! The Christmas Minnie ears are just too cute, I am surprised you passed them up!
What better way to get into the Christmas spirit than MVMCP!? Your pictures - as always - are super cute!!!

I need to ride the ferry boat more often, I rarely do!
Thank you!! The ferry boat is so nice and relaxing, and a nice way to arrive at MK!
I like the MVMCP photo ops. I didn't know they were doing that now! That's a nice way to come into the park and kind of get into the spirit of the party early.
It is such a nice little perk for party goers! Definitely helps get into the spirit as soon as you arrive!
Hi Alexis! Diving into your TR which is filled with adorable and fun stuff! Your Christmas tees and headbands are perfection! I love that they opened the backstage passage for the party guests. They had individually wrapped Christmas party cookies? Those look way better than the snickedoodles in the basket that they hand out.
I'm a big fan of US so glad to read about your adventures there as well.
Hi Brenda! So glad to hear from you! Thanks for the compliments

The individually wrapped cookies were only given out in the little passageway, which was too bad because they were really tasty! I will say though, MVMCP has stepped up their cookie game- they now hand out all different kinds besides the snickerdoodle ones!
We had a lot of fun during our time at US, we managed to get a lot done in that one day!
