Memorial Day Weekend! Long overdue!

It is been a rather hectic few weeks but rest assured I have been going to the Park and taking pictures. Just not able to upload and get creative. I have uploaded. Let's see if there is anything creative...

Friday, May 25:

I went to the Park to meet up with the PEZlings and their mom.

Not a very busy afternoon:


Get into DL and am immediately pinned down by a marauding parade:


NOS - New Pirate Island opened up!

And this is as close as we get to it that day!

Keeping an eye open for the PEZlings, they scurry in and out of view:


On their way to handle the merch:


Time to take a quick assessment of the dental situation:

Thing 2 - check


Thing 1 - check

First up, their favoritest ride:





Then they split up, with Thing 1 going to the Splashy Ride (Grizzly River) for the 3rd time that day and Thing 2 and me heading for Mister Toast:


And then over to the lagoon to get Sub-Merized!©-PEZZ for a little while:


The Ducks and the Gulls about to throw down:


And then it's dinner time:

Thing 2 gets her pirate on!


Thing 1 sharpens her steel

Afterward, Mice Chatters by the loading docks:




And Snow_White_Raven appears with her aunt:


Then it's time for driving!

Thing 1 practices her automotive skills


Getting away before anyone notices the damage

And then back over to DCA!

Thing 1 went onto Mulholland Madness (hated it!) while Thing 2 and I scoped out a place to see the Electric Parade:



BUZZ BUZZ

Mushroom caterpillar:


Tick tock:


Smee motors around:


And gets a blast from the cannon:


Here comes the circus:




Pete's Dragon:


Pete's Dragon's rear end:


And the big eagle to finish it off:


That was it for Friday.
Time to head home and get some rest!

More of the weekend - coming up...

Re: Memorial Day Weekend! Long overdue!

Saturday, May 26:

OK.

We did not make it to DL that day but went to the Strawberry Festival in Garden Grove instead. If you are into dust, cigarette smoke, and expensive carny rides, this was the place for you! All in all, made me appreciate D-Land even more.

Best summed up by this picture:


Things 1 & 2 went back into their box and I made it back to D-Land the following day. That is coming soon...

Hey, I saw me!

Great report. Thing 1 and Thing 2 are very beautiful little ladies.

Re: Memorial Day Weekend! Long overdue!

I saw me too! It was great meeting you. I hope I get to visit with you again on my next trip.

And I enjoyed meeting the Things at the parade!

Re: Memorial Day Weekend! Long overdue!

Sunday, May 27:

This was a huge day.
It was my plan to hit Pirate's Lair first thing in the morning, accompanied by Pirate Munkee and his lovely bride.

So I get there at 8:00 in the AM for opening.

Some pics on my way to the Island:


Heavy traffic:


Hey! Look who's back:


Gotta Wait for the Board:


Dole Whip, anyone?


OK, I HAVE to get this Fast Pass:


Nope, not these pirates, thanks:


Thar she blows!


Just have to wait 30 minutes or so and be on the first raft!


Enjoying the lovely sights:


And then just before 8:30 this guy gave the announcement the Island was experiencing technical difficulties and would not open for (at least) an hour:

He changed the sign to read NO time and promptly departed.


No sweat, matey!

Pirate Munkee called and I told him to get over there fast because I got the best place in line! He and Princess626 hustle on down:


Punked!


Well, might as well get our pirate fix:

Happy Munkee!

Back to PLoTSI. Open yet?

Nope

What else is close by and fun to do? I know:



Hmmm... Pirates?

Perhaps

Judimouse and her happy crew appear to wait out the Pirates in their Lair:


This Suit came by to keep the peace:


Disgruntled Chatters prepare a mutiny:


The Pirate crew prepares the nets:

Just in case worst happens. Like fishing us out of the Rivers.

But just then the announcement come down to start the rafts and get the Lair humming!



Pirate Munkee feels the call of the open sea in his blood as we set sail for adventure - and bathrooms!

Thus begins our journey to the Lair of Pirates and abandoned forts.

More to come after a brief respite...
