in the movie and caused me to say "yeah, ignore that. You'll learn about that when you're older" to the kids. I didn't recall any of that in the movie when I was a kid.Hi I am really enjoying you report!
If you wanted to draw the characters for free there is a class inside of the animation studio near the gallery
it's a fun thing to do! But that is what next time is for - right? Do you know where to go? I think that your entire family will enjoy it.
EMH is awesome when everybody else starts to finally leave. I was really thankful the next morning that we weren't going commando style as soon as the sun came up!
Thank you! And please tell your DD I said thank you as well!!! There really are many more pictures to come, I promise!FABULOUS TRIP REPORT!!! My DD16 turned me onto your report this morning, she asked if I was subbing to your report and I said no, she said you need to you will love it, there's tons and tons of pictures. Well, I can't tell you how happy I am that she did.
I love airport and plane pictures and you had a ton....thanks!!! I am subbing now and can't wait for more
(i.e. day 199 we were under 200, day 189 = less than 190 and so on EVERY 10 days!) I can't wait till we get the next date set!
FINALLY caught up with your TR!
LOVED that movie as a kid! I purchased it on DVD not that long ago and put it on while watching my cousins (4 & 6) one night. As an adult living in an overly PC world; realized there were a couple of things that made me go
I'm honestly shocked that there are parts like that! I don't remember anything like that at all! I'm thinking I'm still going to buy it on Ebay or something because the boys have to see it before they become too cool for movies like that (plus I REALLY REALLY want to see it again!)
Yes, it's FREE! I can't believe that you missed out on it,
They may enjoy it, but I'll leave it up to them. My brother and I will definitely get a kick out of it
Excellent picture!
Thanks, I really wanted some with a longer shutter speed but it just wasn't in the cards. There's always next time right?!?!?
OK, I'll bite. I'm not a fan of flash in the dark rides because it disturbs other guests trying to experience the ride. You know from my TR that I rarely use flash. Pretty much it's b/c the only photography classes I've taken have been black and white classes using SLR's (no digital) and processing my own negatives and printing my own prints in a dark room. Flash as not been allowed in those classes and I've learned to work a camera without. Even my cheap one - for the most part. Obviously, the higher quality camera the better images you can create in a dark lit area without either a flash or a tripod.
You obviously have a very strong interest in photography. Have you considered signing up for photography classes? If there is a community college located near you, check out and see what they offer. That is what I do when I have time.
Next year, if all the planets align and I find a shooting star to wish on, I'm hoping to have my first DSLR. I've really been looking at the Nikon d5000 or the d90 if the money is there. After I have a camera in hand, I really do want to take some classes. I've actually looked them up online but if I read it correctly, you bring your own camera.
I really tried to keep from using the flash but I was striking out on both of those rides and I really wanted to get some pics for the boys to remember them.
I will admit last year I had no idea you could get a decent shot without a flash, until I read your report. Now, if I have time to play with the settings a little, it seems like I get a much better picture without the flash than if I used it. Your pictures were awesome and I was shocked that they were all done with a P&S. After that I started doing some homework and actually learned how to use my bridge camera. I still don't get the 2 second delay thing you did.....I guess I just don't have the steady hands! Hopefully next year I'll have something that can handle an ISO of 3200 or so and a fast lens so the flash will stay like new
Keep up with the great report! I can't wait for the next installment.
I've got so much going on this weekend but I'll try to work on it and have a new one up soon. I still have 4 more days to get up there, plus a bonus section with photopass pictures!
your trip report it's one of the best i've read on here you should really see disney at christmas it's beautiful and your boys would love mickey's merry christmas 
santa: my daughter really had a good time at the party she was eight when we went my son not so much but he was thirteen they have different dance parties going on thru out the magic kingdom we where at cosmic rays starlight cafe and they have character's giving autographs that you dont see any other time of the year we got the queen of hearts autograph their was a lady their in line that said she lives near disney and has a seasonal pass and said she had never seen the queen of hearts their so that was cool and she really played the part well thanks for posting all the pics makes me feel like i'm their all over again
Mommom Ginny is the best. She really did great with keeping up with everybody even on the really late nights. She knows when to pass on what rides, but she still participates!
We want to go to Disney during Christmas SOOOOO bad but it's just not in the cards this year. Next year Tina will be starting a new job in the fall if everything works out as planned and who knows what kind of vacation time she will have then. MAYBE if she has shift work and gets a good amt of days off in a row, we might be able to swing it. I'd love to go see all the shows and meet the characters. Can you imagine how many pictures I'd come home with then?i loved loved
Please be patient and there will be one soon I promise.
