It was "Yam Solo". It was only available at the parks. Later I ended up getting the Indiana Jones version whose hat plays the theme song. But it's not the same. Now on EBay Yam Solo's cost a bunch.

Oh man! Does this mean that my Star Wars Mr. Potato Head collection won't get any bigger? I missed out on Han Solo the first time around and was planning on getting one with the new release. Darth Tater is still my favorite with Mashter Yoda a close second..

I believe Dole Whips are not made with milk. So you should be fine. Yes in Disneyland you can take your Dole Whip into the Enchanted Tiki Room. And the line is usually shorter on that side of the stand. If you're extra lucky, you'll get Maynard as your Tiki host. Look him up on Youtube...

I was just in Disneyland last week. There, no child is lost - only parents are. I heard a CM telling a little girl "Honey you're not lost, your parents are. I'm taking you to the Lost Parents area" and sure enough there's a sign in front of the fire station on Main Street that says "Lost...

Hint: The plastic tube container that micro M&Ms come in (I usually only find these at the checkout counter instead of on the candy aisle) perfectly hold quarters. When we go to Disney we load one up with 2 quarters and then a shiny penny, 2 quarters and then a shiny penny... you get the...

Hoop De Doo Review

We were in an Outback Steakhouse in Seattle on October 7th. It was WARM outside. In SEATTLE. Every 4th song was a Christmas song. No joke. I refuse to go back there.

Me, My daughter (7) and my mom (67 !) did this. But stopped at 7.

We cheer and yell "We're on Vacation!" as the Magical Express bus passes under the arch that says you're entering Disney World. Most people on the bus don't notice the arch, but they definitely notice us!

Hey! Welcome to the beautiful Pacific Northwest. You are coming at the perfect time. It has been a spectacular summer (except for that enormous forest fire still burning in Eastern WA). I suggest you book a weekend trip to Disneyland for some time in January or February. By then, you will...

While walking to Rafiki's planet, we heard a little kid ask: "Gramma, is this real rain or Disney rain?". Living in Washington State, we use this one alot.

Hubby and DD17 are going to WDW without me next week. Daughter with high school orchestra, hubby using frequent flier miles and hotel stays I've racked up through my work. How is this fair? They both swear they're sorry I can't go, but they can't seem to keep the giant smiles off their faces...

For me, the Hoop De Doo Review was the most unexpected favorite. Actually I didn't know what to expect. We loved it! I tell everyone who is going to WDW, to go.

You have to climb through the caves. They are loaded with special effects. Lots of motion activated things. Places where if you put your hand into an opening, visual effects change. It's all pirate themed and done very well.

Character facelif? If they're giving characters a facelift, will someone please give Jessie a neck ? She creeps me out.

Austin-based Gowalla Inc. today is announcing a deal with the Walt Disney Co. to bring its location-based social networking service to the company's U.S. amusement parks and resorts. It's the first location-based social network deal on Disney's part and a coup for Gowalla, which is competing...

Ya'll are slacking off here. There are 4 whole posts, and no one has said anything about this being tied to the RFID conspiracy that's going to track your every move throughout the parks! Since it's Friday, I guess I can give you some more time ;) Enjoy the weekend.

Kiosk Bars for Glow Fest We were just there last week. This licence was put to, what appears to have been, very profitable use. They have the Hollywood Pictures Backlot street set up with neon collored decorations, and in the evenings they set up 2 or 3 bars in the middle of the street...

There's one very important menu item missing: Coffee ! What is it with Disney, and real coffee?? Why is it so hard to find there?
