I have so many questions!!!
First of all, ticketing...I'm so confused by this. Are we supposed to buy tickets to our own room? Seems odd... shouldn't I get them for free? I mean, it is my room....
Yeah I don't really get that either. When they first promo'd it I thought that the other people would buy them before entering but I'm not sure it works that way now. I have to pay for them myself? Can anyone elxplain this?
Club33... okay, this one REALLY has me... what does Yavn mean by "renting" to deserving players? ... "Invitation only" doesn't sound very friendly.
I was so jazzed when I first heard about the C33 room and saw a picture this morning, but equally bummed when I heard it was reserverd for Hosts, or as the Newsletter says, specially stuff. Bah. I want my own C33 room. It look awesome! And it's fantastic to see Walt.
Now... MARDI GRAS! There are bead necklaces strewn in the NO Square, and Mardi Gras hats/masks pictured in the gallery...
I just found out you can say Mardi Gras in VMK now. I and really really want the Jester hat or MG mask pictured in the gallery. Sweet! Especially if they have matching costumes (though probably won't knowing VMK).
I wonder since they moved Mansion to NO, why not Pirates. Can't have Blue Buyou without Pirate boats going by.... Heh.
Mardi Gras really can be a family friendly celebration......
Makes me want to go look up more about it. Maybe if I feel like learning later. Heh. But seriously VM, thanks for the lesson. Anything else I should know? For starters, what's Kings Cake?
I have never seen 1000 credits for anything, and I would kill for 400 credits a game. Some people just don't know how lucky they have it.
Yeah, and it appears we won't be seeing it anymore either. So I guess it's how lucky we
had it, eh?

And I don't mean to start a flame war, but let me vent here and say it wasn't luck. I worked really really hard to get that good at Fireworks. Believe me it's a lot of skill and a lot of patience to sit through game after boring game after mind-numbingly boring game for 14 minutes at a time to get that 675 or 1300 credits. It takes skill to be good and will to stay focused and keep playing. At least for me. Now I have to force myself to play for a quarter the credits. Ah well.

[/RANT] Sorry. Thanks for listening.
Well actually,
Disneyland sells a non-alcoholic mint julep in New Orleans Square, which isn't so much a mint julep as it is a delicious minty flavored lemonade. Very tasty.
OMG! I so love the Mint Juleps at DLR! I only discovered them a couple years ago and I find them terribly yummy and refreshing. Awesome on a hot day! I especially enjoy getting them in the Blue Bayou (free refills!). I've never had the "fire water" version, but I don't care for the taste of alcohol so I probably wouldn't like it.
DLR minty lemonade (lime-cherry-ade?) is
