Thanks! I'm glad you're enjoying it! :cheer2:

I actually dropped my good camera during Fantasmic when we were at WDW this past June for our Disneymoon. It busted! :sad2: I had to replace my camera and didn't have much money to get a good camera at the time. I ended up buying a $100 Kodak camera, which was the cheapest digital I could find at the time. It's a pretty good camera to take every day shots and it did okay in the dark, but it's not great.

After this past trip, I really want to get a new camera after seeing the way my photos came out. Some would be great and others would be horrible! I want a good camera, but I can't spend a lot of money on it. I'm thinking about adding it to my Christmas list! :rotfl:

I just said the same thing myself: New camera! I have a pretty nice camera (well - considering - it's a $200 Kodak), but have such difficulty with night shots. Grrr.
 
Lovin all the pics......thanks so much for sharing.
We've been to MNSSHP twice & I really love it. Going the MVMCP this year instead & looking forward to it too. Thanks for letting me relive the Boo To You Parade & Hallowishes. :maleficen :hmghost: :maleficen :hmghost:
 

Part 9: Mickey's "Boo to You" Parade!

It was really dark and it was hard for me to see what I was actually taking a photo of half the time, which is why some of the photos are off center. :)

The knew we were knew the finale of the parade when I saw everyone in their Goofy Candy Co. gear giving out candy! I didn't have my bag out to get any because I was busy snapping pictues, but my Mom loaded her bag up! :bitelip:

Here comes Goofy! Sorry, some of the pictures are dark. I didn't want to edit every single one of them on my computer, but they all came out really good when I edited them to print. :thumbsup2

I thought this was so funny! Goofy sweeping up the mess the parade left! :rotfl:

There's still more to come! :wizard:
 
Your report is SO GREAT!! I love having all the pictures included. It's like reading a children's book :) Keep up the good work!
 
I'm glad you aren't done. I'm having fun living the MNSSHP through you and your mom. We won't be going until the DH retires from his teaching job so this is the next best thing! Thanks for all the pictures!!
 
Thanks everyone for the positive feedback on my first TR! :blush: I'm really enjoying writing it and I'm glad you're enjoying all the photos! I love photos and I take A LOT of pictures! I love reading everyone's trip reports, but I always wish there were more photos to enjoy! I love looking at everyone's happy family photos! As I said in the beginning, I wanted it to be short, sweet, and with A LOT of pictures! :thumbsup2

More to come! :wizard:
 
Part 10: Stitch's Cosmic Dance Party! :stitch:

I had to make it to Stitch's Cosmic Dance Party in Tomorrowland! It was a must see for me! Stitch as Elvis! Can it get any better!? :stitch2: I just love Stitch and I am a huge Elvis fan! We booked it to Tomorrowland to make it to the last show! :thumbsup2

We walked in and it was pretty empty in Cosmic Ray's, so we got a seat up front. We checked our watches and it was time for the show! Next thing we heard was the famous Elvis entrance music and the stage began to rise up from the ground! :hyper:

And then...there he was...Elvis....errr...um...I mean Stitch! :lmao:

n25002324_31121008_6458.jpg


Stitch was too cute in his Elvis jumpsuit! I just loved it! :stitch:

n25002324_31121009_2557.jpg


It started to get crowded with children and families and it was time to hit the dance floor! It was so much fun! :dance3:

n25002324_31121011_14.jpg

The DJ announced that there would be special guests arriving for the dance party!

Welcome Donald Duck and Pluto! :hyper:

We turned around and there they were coming down to the stage from behind us! It was the cutest Donald I had ever seen! He was so short and little! He barely came up to my waist and was in a cute pumpkin costume! He was adorable! :donald:

I had such a great time and the children were all so cute in their costumes! My Mom and I spotted the cutest Peter Pan and Tinker Bell shaking it on the dance floor! :goodvibes

Hi! :wave: Thanks and I am so glad you're enjoying all the photos! :thumbsup2 MNSSHP was a blast and just a short last minute trip that my Mom and I through together. It was worth it! :teeth: I'm glad you like my Pal Mickey! I spent a lot of time making sure he looked good for the party! :rotfl: He looked better than my Mom and I did and his costume cost a lot less to put together. :lmao: My Mom and I have now decided that we must drop in on the Pirate Princess Party in March, so we may be putting on our pirate gear again! pirate:
 
Part 11: Arrrr! Where could that Captain Jack Sparrow be!?

Our next mission was to find our Captain! Arrrr! Where could Captain Jack be!?

YO HO, YO HO, A PIRATE'S LIFE FOR ME! pirate:

n25002324_31121019_7280.jpg


Arrrr! What happened to my green pirate parrot!? Arrrr!

n25002324_31121020_7729.jpg


The updated Pirates of the Caribbean ride was amazing! It looked better than ever and my Mom and I were in awe of the new addition! We couldn't believe how much it looked just like Johnny Depp! We actually went on the ride twice in a row! First, we sat in the front of the boat and then we sat in the back!

Our boat actually stopped in front of the last scene with Captain Jack for about 5 minutes and we loved that! :love:

I loved hearing Johnny's voice at the end saying my favorite lines from the movie! We couldn't believe how life-like he was and the movements were perfect! I can't wait to go back! I know my Mom can't either! :lovestruc

It was getting late and the party was coming to an end. :sad2: We checked our watches and realized it was midnight. We saw that Captain Hook had left for the night already. I really wanted to see him and get our picture with him in our pirate gear. I was sad we missed him. There was just so much to do in such a short time. I saw where he was earlier and now all that was there were barrels of candy. :(

Oh, no! I didn't get my picture by Cinderella's Coach yet! :worried:

We booked it over to Fantasyland from Adventureland! I was hoping I would luck out and maybe still be able to get a picture!

There it was! I saw a short line and thought maybe they weren't letting anyone else get pictures, so I sneaked around to the end of the line. The CM saw me and smiled, so it was all good! :yay: Two other families got in line behind us and then I saw the photographer getting worried. The CM walked over and closed the line up! Wow! What luck! Just in time!

It was all little girls in line getting their photos taken in their Princess costumes and then there I was...a 23 year old in a pirate costume! :lmao:

My Mom does not like to have her photo taken at all, so I was lucky to even get her to be in a few photos with the characters. She turned down a lot of the characters when they got near her for a photos. :rotfl:

It was my turn, so I walked up in front of Cinderella's Coach and told him it would just be me and Mickey! :lmao:

n25002324_31170719_307.jpg


The park has pretty much cleared out by this point and we made the long walk from the back of the park all the way to the front. We made sure to walk through Cinderella's Castle and it brought back all those feelings from being there at 5:00am for my MK wedding photo session. :goodvibes

We made it to Mainstreet and they had loud dance music playing, so my Mom and I began dancing down Mainstreet! :dance3: It was so much fun! We quickly realized the reason for the music was to get guests to exit the park faster and quicker! Well, it worked!

We got out to the front and we said good-bye to the Magic Kingdom for now!
I will be back the day after Thanksgiving and my Mom will be back in March! :woohoo:

n25002324_31121027_907.jpg


We were exhausted, tired, and our feet were killing us! Of course, our All-Star bus pulled up when we weren't near our bus stop yet! We had to run to make it to the bus. We didn't need to be doing that! :rotfl2:

We got a seat on the bus and collapsed! We got back to All-Star Music and had the dreaded long walk all the way back to the Country Fair! :rolleyes:

I was dying of thirst! We finally got back to our room and we couldn't wait to get into our pj's! We were so sweaty and our bodies hurt after such a hectic day! Of course, it was all worth it! Only at WDW!

We changed into our pj's and could barely walk by this point, but we hobbled down to the drink machine that wasn't too far from our room. We were cracking up laughing along the way because of the way we were walking or barely walking! :rotfl2:

I got my Diet Coke and we got back into our clean room to call it a night! My Mom got into her bed and was out in a few minutes. I got in my bed and turned the TV onto the Classic Disney Cartoons' Channel. I enjoyed my favorite Disney cartoon episode ever! :hyper: I use to have it on tape and watched it all the time when I was little! I couldn't believe it was on that channel! :happytv:

It's the one where Mickey, Donald, and Goofy all go on a trip in a trailer and there are many mishaps caused by the one and only "Goof!" :goofy: I just love it!

Then, I shut my eyes and was off to dreamland. :cloud9:


Day 2 is up next! You don't want to miss it! :wizard:
 
Maybe NEXT year we'll actually get Captain Jack mingling outside Pirates.

*crosses fingers*

Keep 'em coming! And that trek back to the room can sometimes be exhausting.
 
Love your report so far. Your pictures are great! Last year after the villian show in front of Cinderella's castle, the villians came out for pictures and autographs. Did they not do that this year?
