- will you be doing anymore updates? Not that Caitlin isn't kicking butt with hers, but I feel like I haven't seen you around for awhile.
Wow - you covered a lot of ground in this update. I had to scroll back and see where you started.
I have to agree with you - I prefer the Boardwalk over the BC, which is a total surprise to me. I am thrilled my wait list came through for October.
Woo hoo to 4 weeks from DL! You are going to have all sorts of eye candy to photograph. Get those memory cards ready.
Love that picture of the dining room in the HM. Just perfect. I have to agree that night time in all the parks is so intriguing, especially when trying to capture it in pictures. Strong work.
Hi Dawn -
First off, its an honor that youve read my trip reports! Lol, thats awesome and amazing!!
Of course I always have to stay up to date on whether you saw your Navid or not!
And now, onto the update
Yay! Disneyland, so close!! So much fun!!
I can't wait!
AH! Peter on OUAT is just insane, Im so incredibly excited for the next season!
Me too! Did you see the Little Mermaid trailer from Comic Con?!! Ahh so excited for that and the Alice in Wonderland spin off!
I havent really explored the BW Resort, but Beach Club is a new love of mine and someday Ill definitely stay there! Dinner sounds good, glad that you had tons of choices too! Ugh, the amount of kids now a days that are dependant on cell phones or games of some sort is just sad. I was on the bus from AsMu to AK in May, not a long trip, and this kid threw a HUGE fit because he couldnt play with the cell phone. It makes me happy that Im from Canada and we turn our phones off while in Disney so we actually talk! I use mine for note taking and tweeting awesome things and thats it!
Boardwalk is so great! Especially at night! It was nice to be able to eat whatever I wanted in Disney! Yeah we banned our cell phones to the room for this trip and try to stay off of them as long as we can during the day! I didn't have my first cell phone till I was 12 and my first Ipad till I was 22 these kids don't realize how good they have it
Have you ever been on Splash?! I definitely like WDWs a whole lot better than DLRs, but that might be just me. I definitely say give WDWs a chance next time too! I definitely didnt see the projection of mermaids in the water, just the skeleton, next time Ill keep an eye out!
Yes it is one of my favorite rides I just hate getting wetI plan on trying DLRs just to compare.
You have to it was crazy! So creepy!
What a wonderful evening at MK so far, you guys definitely did a lot, and explored a lot! I love the Tangled bathrooms! Theyre so well done and just gorgeous no matter what time of day youre there!
Hi Dawn -
Yay for Disneyland!! Definitely do Splash. Not quite as good as WDW, but great nonetheless. Plus Space Mountain is UNREAL out west, as is Pirates. Oh man now I want to go too.
Aw gee I totally missed how Hook is trying to get at Peter when I saw it. I was so blown away with Peter on the roof that I totally missed the connection. Thank you for pointing it out.
It took me a while to see the Pirates mermaid effect so I guess I wasn't completely blown away by it, but the skeleton totally creeped me out. Although I had just done the Meet and Greet with Ariel a short time before, so that image was going to freak me out anyway.
Once again, your pictures are AMAZING!
I am so excited! It will just be hard fighting for the camera with my dad Wonderful pics!
Hi MaryEllen
"Real life" has been really crazy lately so I've been leaving the reporting to Caitlin. Hopefully things will settle down and I will get back to taking turns with her
Happy (belated) Birthday, Dawn!!!
on your Haunted Mansion pictures. The ballroom scene picture is awesome. We went backstage at HM during the class trip last June, and that was the scene we observed. 
Back from my trip and caught up!!!
Hope you had a great trip!
Loved the picture of your meet with DeeMarch.
The Oz section looks awesome. I love the picture of you as Finley. I would have loved to get my boys in that cutout. Their theatrical debut was in a community theatre production of Wizard of Oz as Flying Monkeys!
It was very cool! Aw that's so cute!
I would have loved the Peter Pan and Hook Topiaries too (their third production was PP- Nate was Curley the lost boy who shoots Wendy-bird and Ben was the crocodile)
Aw!!!
Ben was Napoleon in Aristocats in April too!!! Lots of Disney action!
Sounds like your sons are quite the actors!
Ok- back to your report.
Wow!!! Gorgeous pictures. Love the monorail ones.
Thank you!
We all loved the new Test Track! Did not love that you can't add your ride pic to Photopass for free. Thank goodness for redneck ride photos.
You went to the BC! You went to the BC! You went to the BC!!!
One of my favorite hotels!
Holy Crowds Batman! I can see why you didn't brave Main Street!!! The train was a great choice.
The crowds weren't that bad but that night was packed!
During our trip last week, they didn't use the queue that takes you by the pirate chess game at all. I saw the mermaid skeleton but didn't notice the projections in the water. Wish I had seen that before we went.
I keep hearing that from our readers I wonder if they aren't on all the timeIt's hard to miss if the effect is working.
Ready for more!
