Does a 30% refund on our resort stay and 4 3 day park hopper tickets count as Dream come true? If so, we got it. We went to WDW Dec. 1-10 and had a bad experience with the pop warner kids. I emailed Disney about this just to let them know how this pop group was making the "regular" guests vacation a nightmare. That is those of us that actually had a run in with them. The nicest CM called me and thanked me for the email and granted me a Dream. My family is so excited.

Who did you write your letter to?

Before the promo started we were there in Jan. My son got a free game at the Animal Kingdom and got a prize then he got a free candy dessert (fancy at the candy shop at the MGM Main street confectionairy.

On December 16 my 6 year old son and I were walking down Mickey Avenue in MGM Studios and a cast member stepped out from in front of Walt Disney, One Man's Dream and asked us if we'd like to come inside and learn a little about Walt Disney. I looked down at my son and said, "I think that's a very good idea. Let me show you who is responsible for all of this being here." The CM just smiled and stepped back to make way for us going inside. As we entered the room immediately behind the door a CM from the Dream Squad stepped up and said, "Thank you for visiting the story of Walt Disney." and handed both of us YOAMD lanyards with pins. It was so exciting and I can't tell you how many people tried to get us to trade those pins that week!!!

So my husband calls me on my way home from work and says what would you be getting from WDW in a registered package. I ponder and ponder some more and can't think what it might be. After I hung up it hits me, YOAMD. I might have one something from one of the cards I sent in. So the waiting begins, post office wont let us get it until 9am tomorrow.

What will it be...?

We are going in March and will be bringing my son's girlfriend. We will be celebrating her first time to Disney and her birthday (#21) and our anniversary (#26). I HOPE and WISH she gets picked for something. But we are already granting her biggest wish to go to Disney so she is already so very excited. We are surprising her with a cake at the Liberty Tree Tavern for the character dinner. I didn't think I could ever get more excited about going to Disney World, but bringing her and seeing how excited she already is makes it more exciting to me. I am having a really hard time trying to fit in everyting I think she should see in just 3 full days. But I definitely will try to get her a "first-time" and "birthday" buttons. I am already planning a trip scrapbook to make for her. I can hardly wait to go!!!!

We're not due back there until Oct07 but found this thread and wanted to share a fantastic experience that we had last April06. We (Me, DW, DS & DD)had just arrived and had arrived for our first meal under the Dining Plan at Chef Mickey's for breakfast. (We hadn't eaten there since Oct04 when were last there as a family group - 10 of us. One of the CMs originally came from Scotland, about a couple of hours drive from where we live and we had a brief chat during breakfast and he gave our kids Chef Mickey placemats.) This visit, we were shown to our table and we noticed 'James from Dunblane' from the previous visit. He saw us, came right over and started chatting away. He stopped by the table several times over breakfast, and enjoyed teasing my Ds about the football team colours he was wearing and again, as we left, came over with new Chef Mickey placemats for our kids - he must have known the other ones were getting a bit tatty! After 18 months to recognise us, especially when we were in a group of 10 the first time and only 4 this time was great. Here's hoping he's on shift again this October.................as the placemats are wearing down again!! Absolutely fantastic and really made our trip, AGAIN!!

After having sweet dreams of going on an "all expense paid" DREAM trip to Disney, I had to get up and go to work only to leave my Darling Husband to go to the post office. So 9:00am comes and goes and finally at 9:15 I called him and he says, "I didn't want to open it without you"! Yeah, like I would have waited for him.

It seemed like hours for him to cut open the box and ...
inside the box were the much heralded, highly anticipated Year of a Millon Dreams Ears.

No not the trip of our dreams, but still a pretty good prize.

As DH was opening the envelope he still held out hope that this was the dream trip. But no, just a nice little note congratulating us.

I got free popcorn today from the Main Street vendor.

Congrats on the Ears!! I can't wait to get some of those at the park myself. Seems like a good prize to get.

 

[dustysky]

does anyone have a picture of the ears or are they the same ones you can buy in the gift shops?

 

[Cass]

You can't buy them, they are exclusively given as prizes. They look like this

 

[kayc86]

They look really nice!hope I can get a pair.

Man I'd love to get a pair of those when we're down there!

It sounds like most people are getting the pin lanyards rather than the ears. Any type of little magic that DW and I can get and spread while we're down is going to be fun.

Here's a question for everyone....DW and I (see ages below) have no kids but we'd like to spread some magic while we're down there. I don't think parents would be too keen of us giving anything to their kids, even if they were just glow bracelets. I know I wouldn't be too cool with that. What do you guys think we can do to spread some magic? I was thinking about making up something for CM's too but on our last trip we didn't really expereince any magic from the CM's.

Thanks!
