On our first day we got to ride up front on the monorail going back to the parking lot, That was sooooo very nifty.


On our second day besides just having the best trip, I was just learning to pin trade and traded a CM for the Goofy and Donald Magic Dreams pin. She acted like she didn’t know about it, maybe she didn't! Then later DD was given the Tink pin to give from a CM.


The third day at the Epcot Princess lunch my Daughter was picked to be the Epcot Junior Chef and got to paint a cookie and an adorable certificate.

Later that day I asked a CM for help finding chopsticks, we met up a bit later and started talking well it turns out he was on the dream team and when my mom showed up he asked who our day was going. My mom said she really wanted to go on Mission Space but the wait was 120 all day long and we missed the fast passes. So he took us both on it individually and we passed the long lines. He was the best and that was the best ride! Thank you Donald!!!!

Third day- We slept in for out Pooh Breakfast and asked and hour and a half later if we could sit and they said yes we could. It was great. But sad for the folks after us they turned them away.

On the last day we went back to Epcot and went strait to Sorin but the line for the fast passes was 30 min and the fast passes where for 8-9pm but I wanted to get them any way. Lucky for us a lady walked up to me and gave me two fast passes for 4:45!!!!
Disney is the best and brings out the best in people.
I cant wait to go back!

A CM came up to my famliy and chose us to have a private meet and greet with Cinderella. It was very magical watching the kids interact with Cinderella.

Just got back from Honeymooning at Disney and we had a MAGICAL time! Lots of pixie dust and magical moments . . . here are some highlights:

Got picked as 'First Family' at the American Adventure: Got to sit up top of the rotundra to watch the Voices of Liberty, and then let into the show early to take pictures and sit wherever we wanted. They also announced us at the beginning of the show, and gave us a magical moments certificate.

Got picked to view Wishes from the Astro Orbiter!!! A dream CM (Barbara) stopped us and invited us one night. We went up to the platform with two other small families and had a fantictic view of the fireworks, castle and tink's flight. Then, Barbara found out that we have never actually rode the Astro Orbiter, so Barbara set it up so that my new hubby and I got to ride after Wishes, all alone!

How do you do the "mail in entry?"

 

[snoopywoodstockus]

We bought USPS pre-stamped postcards and printed labels for them. We just slap an address label and an info label and drop them in the mail. We do doctor it up with a stamp and color it for fun.

Sorry but I'm not following...

So you just mail your name and address to WDW, and that is considered an "entry" to win something?

I would like to know the specifics too. Send to what address?

I can't wait till our next trip in Dec 07. I have started mailing my cards out. Just maybe some Disney magic will come my way and make the wait to our trip go a little faster.

So Yesterday as my family and I are listening to the roar of a generator outside our house to keep us warm (we ae in SW Missouri and have had no power since Saturday) I hear a knock upon my door. My darling son runs to get the door and there stood our Mail Lady with a package from Walt Disney. I was so excited...I had sent in 100 postcards and had already won a pair of ears. I sign the cards required to claim my package and wish my Mail Lady to stay warm (teens here) and take the package back into my family. My husband grabs the box and shakes it mentally weighing it. "It's Ears" he says, and he was correct.

2 Pairs in 2 weeks... YEah Us.

So we sat listening to roar of the generator and we were happier than we had been, because we could take turns wearing our ears.

WE got something very special before the Million Dreams.
This was the absolute best and I cannot thank this lady enough.
April of the last my family and I DH , and twin 4 year old girls were staying at Animal Kingdom Lodge. Early Thursday morning my daughters awoke and seemed to be quite sick. O.k I do have to tell you this lil part first sorry . Anyways I woke up at 1:00 am and decided to go down to the desk . Well once in the elevator the lights went off and it dropped 3 floors. i was in there for a good 10 mintues hitting every button I could find , REALLY anything that was sticking out I pushed it. Finally the lights came on and there I was Main Lobby YIPPY

O.K NOW for the MAGIC. We didn't go to the parks that day because my DD's were still a bit under the weather so we went to Downtown Disney thinking a lunch and ice cream would cheer them up. While standing in line at Wolf Gang Pucks Express 2 ladies were chatting amounst themselves , one turned and said "Hello , I hope you are enjoying your day " , I said " Yes having a wonderful time ". MY DD's said very little and I said " I'm so sorry they are not feeling quite themselves". We proceeded throught the line and found a table. No more then 5 minutes later one of the ladies came over and said "You were talikng to my Mom in line and she told me about your girls, and I would like to do something for them ". Well she apparently was the manager at the Bibbideebobidee Boutique and told the girls she wanted to give them a complete make-over if they feel up to it . Well of coarse that was a definte yes from my little Holly , McKenna on the other hand is more Boy/Girl . We strolled over after we ate and yes free complete makeovers and not only that she took them shopping throught the store FREE. McKenna got her Pirate stuff and Holly all deck out little princess. This was amazingly kind act not even being a Year of a Million Dreams. So yes, Magic happens all the time!

I just made dining reservations for the Hoop Dee Doo Revue, and was quoted a price, and then after he took my credit card info., he said the price just dropped, and it worked out to be $10 savings per person. Do you think that was a wish as part of the YOMD?

 

[RATCHET88]
