Rocker's 10/26 Trip Report

[mousechild]

Great report as usual.

[DisneyIPresume]

Seeing these pictures makes me wish I had gone yesterday!

But as it turns out I was feeling a little under the weather so I wouldn't have enjoyed myself.

Hope to see you all again soon!

Great TR so far Alex!

[MickeyMousePal]

Great Trip Report, Alex.

[aashee]

You are getting really good at your trip reports Alex. Well done!

[Rex Dopey24]

awesome trip report alex. you rock.

[dland_lover]

Great stuff! More, I say- more!!

[SeaWolf38]

Very nice! Too bad I couldn't make it. Looks like a fun meet!

[Datameister]

Cool TR! A tip, though - as tempting as the color settings on the camera may be, I recommend sticking with the standard colors. Black and white or sepia photos can be great, don't get me wrong! But if you take the shot with normal colors, you can always go and make a copy on the computer with the different coloration. Then you'll still have the original. If you take the photo in black and white...well, if you ever want to see the original colors, you're screwed.

Great TR.

Great TR. I like the food at the Plaza too, especially the chicken dinner. I have to have it at least once every time we visit.
Parts of the restaurant could sure use a good cleaning though, especially the upholstery on the bench seating.

Hey, here is the rest of the Trip Report. I would like to continue where I left off, which we were still at the Blue Sky Disney preview center.

The Princess Palace, which will be formerly called Ariel's Grotto

Where the Jumpin Jellyfish will be placed- where the Maliboomer use to be



Paradise Pier layout

The new layout for the Boardwalk Games

The Red Car Trolley that will be in the new Main Entrance to DCA

What the new entrance to DCA will look like when done

After going into the Preview Center, it was getting close to the time to meet up with some of the other Micechatters and Al Lutz in time for the High School Musical 3 Pep Rally, so we decided to walk around Paradise Pier and through the Golden State to kill some time.

The place of the now-retired Burger Invasion sign

We were actually planning to go for a ride on Toy Story Midway Mania, but with a 30 minute line, we decided to continue walking

The Sun Wheel with the cars gone for refurbishment

The Grizzly Passage Sign

"Hey! You can't park there- it's illegal!"

We had arrived back at the Sunshine Plaza in time to see the High School musical 3 Pep Rally. While we were waiting, we all decided to get some dessert.

Clockwise from the left: Al Lutz, Fishbulb, Dustysage, Captain Phoebus, Disney1978, and Rick_A_Mortis

Fishbulb rehydrating

Dustysage's Pumpkin Cupcake

I decided to try one of those cupcakes myself

Dustysage decided to show us a magic trick: he's going to make that piece of Pumpkin Cupcake disappear.

Ta-da! It's gone...

Hilsbro and Light Mouse shun their faces away from the camera.

After the Pep Rally was over, Hilsbro, Dusty, Fishbulb, Crazy Legs, Al Lutz, CaptainPhoebus, and Rick_A_Mortis decided to head on home. Meanwhile, me and Light Mouse decided to meet MickeyMousePal, Cuddles McHenry, Huntress, and Rex Dopey 24 to go on Tower of Terror.

Aladdin is now dark

Off we go

Do yourself a favor: if you look up, head out the other way



Too late- you are already in line

Disney1978 decided to sit this one out

A chandelier

As soon as we got out of the pre-show, there was nobody in front of us, so we got walk right ahead.

Cuddles lost in thought

After Tower Of Terror, we still had a Fastpass that MickeyMousePal got us earlier in the day, so we decided to head on back to DL to catch a ride.

Make your own joke with this one

The Disneyland Band marching down Main Street

The now closed fry stand in New Orleans Square. If you look at the sign, you can see a reference to the song from "Pocahantas."

Splash Mountain Fastpass return

In line, Light Mouse and MickeyMousePal decided to have a duel of the 2 finger point.

"Take Row #2, please"

Our splash mountain photo

We all got DRENCHED...

...including me

After Splash Mountain, we decided to try and go to the Haunted Mansion Holiday.

Columbia showing through the trees

Unfortunately, the line for the HMH ended up being almost 50 minutes. As a backup plan, we decided to go to Pirates.

Pirates queue

I'm #1!

Light Mouse giving back MickeyMousePal's keychain

Light Mouse had to go home just then. We decided to go to Mad Tea Party in Fantasyland, so I walked with them to see how long the line was. When I noticed it was too long, I decided it was time to go home. In conclusion, it was another fun meet, the lines were very managable, and I got to meet a lot of people who don't come out very often. As for Cuddles, Light Mouse, MMP, Huntress, and Rex Dopey 24, what can I say? You guys are awesome.

Until next time, this is....

THE END

[Dopey's Girl]

I LIKE Plaza Inn! Best ice tea in the state.

[MonstersGoBoo!]

Yay! Great report! Glad you had fun.

[wickeddisneygurl]

Awesome TR Alex! Looks like you guys had a lot of fun!
