Darn. I'm fascinated by architecture. The buildings on the bridge intrigue me.

It's the Ponte Vecchio in Florence, Italy.
Architecture is my business.

Looks like I will be in WDW for Season of the Force. Yippee!

It was bigger than a shot glass, maybe 8-10 oz. the beer was good though.

I know, I was just bein' silly 'cause it actually looks kinda' small in the pic.
Which begs the question...how much we're they chargin' for 8-10 ounces of that nectar of the gods, or was it (by some crazy chance) a free sample...?!

Just to let you guys know, I might take a short break from WDWMagic since I just recently got my latest 3DS game "Yo Kai Watch". I been playing that game since Friday night and it's alot of fun once you start getting used to how you fight various Yo Kai (Look up Youkai if you don't know what that mean). Youkai are basically Japanese ghosts. I'm planning on watching the english dub of the anime sometime this year. So I'm just letting you guys know I wont be on this site often for now but I will come back to commenting more often when I give the game a break. Don't worry, I will comment on a couple posts a few times a day.

My favorite character so far in the game and anime is Jibanyan. I have a thing with cat characters.

Yep...they weren't pregnant, so it worked. We had a joke though, that you shouldn't dress as being pregnant for come as you're not day, because a couple of girls did and then ended up pregnant the next year.

Yeah, that would have been my concern.

Set it for June...we're leaving the 2nd week of July if all goes well, so I'll need to make a packing list before then.

Done!

I remember camping out for Genesis tickets in a rather shaky neighborhood all night and that was worth it, I've also spent the better part of the night in front of MGM for SWW but for her 10 minutes would be pushing it LOL

Yep, I remember camping out for lots of concert tickets way back in the day before visa bands... So much FUN...!!!!!!!

I actually thought it might be Italy. Somehow it reminded me of the canals in Venice.

Me too!!! I was excited to get to take a taxi in Chicago once. I'm a geek.

That sentence just perplexes the heck out of me.

 

[donaldtoo]

OK gang, I'm gone...
Be well and sweet dreams to all...!
Be well and be happy...!!!
See y'allllllllll...!!!

I have a very short tolerance for lines to purchase anything. 10 minutes is pushing it.

OK, more pics of Disneyland! First up, some New Orleans shots.



A brief clip of Splash Mountain. I recorded some inside the ride, but so much of it is dark and not very interesting. I really hope they fix it up soon.



And I may as well post one of my ride pics, so y'all know what I look like now (I'm the one in the back). I think it's safe. Plus look how happy those kids are!!

A few Haunted Mansion Holiday pics and a clip.





Jingle Cruise! I actually recorded more on video than photos.

@MinnieM123, this one's for you!

 

[catmom46]

Here's a bunch of pics from the Star Wars Launch Bay. I had hoped to do the Disney Visa Meet 'n Greet, but it was an hour-long wait! Another time, I suppose.

 

[catmom46]

Star Wars artwork and phone covers, a couple pics of the interior of the building, and Marvel stuff.

Groovin' Groots!

Next I took the Monorail to Downtown Disney, then headed into California Adventure. Hit Tower of Terror first, then caught the sneak peek of The Good Dinosaur, which was in 3D, so I debated whether or not to watch it and glad I did. It looks so cute! Plus it's in the Bug's Life Theater and they used the same effects during the show, so now I know what it's like.



Next was a couple of rides on Radiator Springs!






For these 2 shots I was playing around with the exposure setting on my PowerShot ELPH, so they might look a bit off. I have no idea what to do with cameras, as I normally just point and shoot!

 

[catmom46]

I hoped to hit Tower of Terror one more time, but it was a 45-minute wait and I was getting hungry again. I headed back to Disneyland to see if I could get a table at Carnation Cafe (I wanted to compare their fried chicken with Plaza Inn's), but it was a 30-minute wait. So guess where I went instead? Plaza Inn, of course! No wait and this time the chicken tasted even yummier, especially with double mashed potatoes. After dinner I checked out some shops (pics of merchandise below) on Main Street and then strolled out around 8:30pm. Definitely a great day!

Mugs for coffee (or whatever you wish to imbibe! )


I thought these were cute:
