We just got back on Thursday! We won 2 significant dreams and lots of little ones. The first was after checking in at the magical express desk we were directed by the manager not to the bus line but to a LIMO!!!! Which took us directly to our resort.

And at on the last day of our stay My daughter and I was visiting AK when we stopped 2 CM to trade pins and were asked to be in the daily Parade!!! It was son exciting for us since we were due to catch the 5pm Magical express back to the airport and the parade is a 4p. Needless to say we did make it back to the hotel in time but I thought it was a double bonus because I felt as though I was being celebrated being a single parent. It was a wonderful experience in all.

Because we (myself, my 2 children and niece) also won the limo ride to the resort!! We were all so very excited.

Who do you address them to and do you just put your mailing address in the card? As you can tell I am a MAJOR newbie to all of this. Let me know what you write in your card and such. Thanks! I would love for my DD to get a lanyard before we even leave to go!!!

Thought I'd check in as I'm sitting in the airport in Orlando, waiting for our flight home

The trip was for my bride of 25 years, to celebrate our anniversary. We got dream fastpasses on our anniversary! How magical is that?

Also got a really cool dessert presentation at Boma, and a lot of great comments from cast members.

No time to post now. It's almost time to board the flight back to reality. Trip reports and food porn pic's to follow after I get home and get some sleep!

When we were at the Kingdom last September (2006), we hit the Buzz Lightyear ride as soon as it opened - it was the family favorite with a four- and a one-year-old. In queue for the ride, we were taken aside by what we thought were security personnel! But no, we had won Dreampasses for the whole family, which you wear around your neck. They allow you on each of the listed rides one time with NO wait at all, you just cut right in. We almost felt badly (but just for a minute) as we strolled right onto our favorite rides instantly. It really was a Disney dream come true!

On June 1, 2007, my DH and I were walking through Downtown Disney around 11:00am.

Across from World of Disney, but in a slightly hidden pathway area near the tram drop off area, we saw a pair of CM's passing out dream ears. I was surprised that so many people were strolling along and didn't even see them! I excitedly began pulling my DH over to them (he hadn't seen them, either!).

We each were given a pair of dream ears, and we wore them for all four days that we were at the park. You should have seen how many people came up to us asking where we got the ears! Cast members congratulated us wherever we went. We're going back to the park tomorrow- and of course we're wearing our special ears.

Oh, and we were lucky enough to win dream fast passes the next morning at California Adventure (not far from Soarin'). It happened around 10:30am. We were walking from the special hotel entrance into DCA, and I noticed a lot of people walking past us with dream fast pass lanyards. I thought, "Wow, I would love to know where they got the passes!" Then I saw the CMs passing them out with about 10 people around them. I yelled to DH, "Dream Fast Passes!!!!" and ran to the CMs, leaving DH, my MIL, and FIL behind. They ran to catch up with me, and I told them to get a fast pass lanyard from the CM. They had no idea what the big deal was, so I had to explain why the dream fast pass was so great.

DH said that wearing the dream fast pass lanyard all day felt like having a VIP Access pass to a huge rock concert. It was awesome!

November of 2006 we were on one of the first Star Tours flights, and as soon as everyone was seated a couple of cast members came in with duffle bags. I screamed before they even made the announcement. XD

My daughter also got to open Turtle Talk with Crush, which was our first attraction on our first night there!

Hi Everyone,

We are going to be going to Disney from Dec 23-Dec 31, 2007. Do you think they will still be giving things away at that time? We'll also be there for our sons birthday on Dec 29. Also what is a Dream Fastpass Card?

Thanks

According to the Official Rules on the WDW Website, YOAMD runs through December 31, 2007.

If I've read correctly, Dream FastPass basically gives you Fast Pass access to every FP ride in the park.

That's right. But the Dream Fast Pass badges only have one entry per FP ride, you can't go multiple times. Another words, once you ride each FP ride once, you can go back to using the "regular FP's" or get in the regular line. Still pretty awesome and I hope I get one!!! Please dream team.... pretty please?

We just returned from our 10 day trip. We saw so many people with Dream Fastpasses and Lanyards. My daughter, 12, was so hoping for something.

We boarded Star Tours during a slow time. There was definitely not a full vehicle. Then, this Disney CM with a white shirt and a black shoulder bag kept hanging around talking to the operator. Right before they shut the doors, they said they had a surprise. Then the CM pulled out a pile of Dream Ears from his bag!

Of course, everyone put them on and wore them for the ride. Everyone gave us strange looks when we got off. The ears are silver and the hat is light blue with the Dreams logo on it. They are definitely unique!

Later during the week, we saw other Disney CMs with black bags. One was giving out the lanyards to anyone who walked by and asked to trade pins with her. Of course, that was the day my daughter didn't take her pins to the parks!

We asked people with the Dream Fastpasses when they got them. Most of thsoe who received the Fastpasses got them early in the morning when they arrived at the parks.

We had a great time and gained 24 pounds altogether eating! We stayed at SSR wth annual passes. We ate at some awesome places.

Won ream Ears in the Princess Room at the tent in Toontown 7/2. Saw dream fastpasses at Buzz right after 9am that morning.
