WDW trip

[pamcook]

Yay!
Great pages!

[Monica]

History of the Haunted Mansion and then a ride through, counting crows as we go. Heading back to the front of the park past the Carousel and the capitol of Corona, Rapunzel's country.

[Monica]

Finishing up the tour at the hub, and Chloe with Claudia, our guide. Meanwhile, Dave was taking in some rides...

[Monica]

Chloe and I found a Disney photographer on Main Street, en route to meet up with Dave, so naturally we had our pictures taken. For some odd reason the photographer insisted on doing a few photos with a guy waiting in line, who was a good sport about it. Anyway...

[Monica]

Pirates! Although I have to say, after the Disneyland one this one just isn't quite as cool. Chloe and I both thought the ride was too short, and that not having it drift past the Blue Bayou restaurant was odd. I guess it depends on what one is used to!

And by the way... I expect bonus points for using up old Disney papers and embellishments on the various pages! I'd like to say the stash looks thinner....

[Monica]

A Chloe selfie and another picture of Dave on a ride... because I just liked them both. And then walking around the area by the Pirates ride.

[Monica]

Last of the first album. This top two pages are the first of five different pirate treasure map quests we did that day, that you use your Magic Band to do, and get prizes after completing each one. And last but certainly not least, a celebration of that wonderful delight known as Dole Whip. I've never had one at Disneyland because the wait lines are ridiculous, but in Magic Kingdom the longest I ever waited was maybe five minutes. And yes, I indulged several times.

[Monica]

So, onward to album #2! First up is a photo op at Liberty Square. Dave didn't want to do it so the photographer took one of him waiting! After that we went to Country Bear Jamboree for the first time, an activity I remember fondly from my first visit to Disneyland at 13, and was thrilled to see at Magic Kingdom. And conveniently, it's just around the corner from the Dole Whip place. Then we have Rapunzel Chloe looking up at the tower.

[Monica]

We passed by the closed for renovation Small World ride... yes, I know it drives some people nuts but it has always been a favorite of mine. Not impressed that they didn't have a clock tower like Disneyland though, considering they have a lot more real estate to grow in. Then Mickey's PhilharMagic, which was a blast, and a photo stop by Gaston's statue of himself given to the town.

[Monica]

Then it was off to the Littler Mermaid ride, where Chloe was given a red ticket to pass to a ride attendant so they could judge wait time. And yes, I'm a tad obsessed with Ariel, so there are lots of photos.

[Monica]

Sadly, none of this made a dent in the amount of Little Mermaid papers I have, although it did use up some embellishments.

[Monica]

Up next was the Peter Pan ride. The Princess shop... I loved that it had Willie the Giant and the beanstalk around it.

[Monica]

You all sick of these yet?

Let's see... Mosaics in the tunnel through Cinderella's castle, which Chloe had me pose beside. Our 1st Visit photo op in front of the castle. Walking over to Tomorrowland. And this catches me up to today.

[Monica]

Yay!
Great pages!

Thanks, Pam.

[Monica]

Moving on... this is the first of my four pages to do for today... we'll see how far I get.

Photo op by the Tomorrowland entrance. Chloe and I really made a point of stopping every time we saw a Disney photographer, and I'm so glad I bought the photo package for that! I'm actually IN a lot of these pictures!

Oh, and those stamps? Probably a good 15 years old and just getting ink... but better late than never!
