Thanks! We almost always manage to have fun - even though there are a few moments here and there that are slightly lesser enjoyment levels, we do our best to make the most of whatever situation we are in. I tend to be a glass half full kinda guy no matter what the situation (sometimes to the...

It's time for our last adventure of this trip. If anyone is like us, the actual location and entry into the new pub was not quite where we expected it to be. As you approach the main entrance to Pirates, this little unassuming door is off to the right before the exit from the gift shop. Since...

Yes, I'm still here! Yes, I'm finally going to get back to the tale of our trip with Sunday, November 23rd. Does that date seem familiar? Do you remember some kind of startling stories coming out of Disney that day? Here's the link with the least pop-ups: DFB report on monorail electrical fire...

So, we had met Santa Duffy and Bing Bong, drive-bys of Chewie and Phineas and Ferb and some dancing with Jose, Panchito, Mike W, and Frozone. Now it was time to party. And, for us, that was at the DJ just out in front of Baseline Taphouse. This is where Goofy and Pluto were dancing with the...

@Tiggerish - but unless you really want to hurt your soul, I recommend against watching it. Some moments are funny in the so bad it's funny way, a lot is just bad. The Boba Fett cartoon is the most redeeming portion. The weird 2 minutes of hologram Cirque that Lumpy watches literally hurts...

In the special, Chewie is trying to get home to celebrate Life Day with his family when various things happen along the way. That would be his Life Day robe. From the special:

Sorry for the continued delays... this past week was concert week for me with 3 evening rehearsals and 3 concerts in the space of 6 days. Now that I've got a few minutes to breathe I can continue our Jollywood Night! We stopped by the Jollywood gift shop and picked up a couple souvenirs and also...

Our next stop was the Holiday Fiesta en la Calle which featured a Latin style party band and again, some professional dancers. Not quite so huge of a crowd at this one, but the band and dancers were both excellent and very entertaining. And, of course, our daughter got out there and danced...

Let's finally get to this Jollywood Nights Party!! (oh, Happy Thanksgiving to everyone - hope you had a good one, and for those not in the USA... hope you had a good weekend!) We started our adventure back by Tower of Terror where the Tip Top Club Twilight Soiree was taking place. We got there...

Not sure. I know they were just added very recently, so I suspect it is just a seasonal addition. Not sure if they will come back out on display next Christmas season.

Alrighty then... let's rewind to the Jollywood Nights Party. Actually we are back at the pre-party. We got into Studios with our APs just a little before the party attendees started to get in - the line was pretty huge outside the tapstiles. We wanted to hit a couple attractions before the...

First off, I am so incredibly glad that marching bands are back! I happened to hear someone mention it when we were there last weekend, but didn't catch any groups. It's not quite as iconic for a kid as marching down Main Street USA, but it's still an amazing experience. Ha!! Although, I won't...

Old thread bump... I was reminiscing about all the lost live music groups over the years and did a quick search on the Hollywood Hitmen and there sure isn't much online about them, which makes me sad. One of my best friends was one of their bass players and loved playing in that group. On my...

Well, we are back home in Maryland and NOT enjoying the freezing temperatures. This means that the trip report is sadly no longer Live at all, but just turning into a 'normal' trip report. :( And, on top of that, I need to find a time to get pictures from @MeffysMom, but we are both working...

Well… we started out for MK at about 9am. Got in the park at 11am. Evidently there was monorail fire this morning @wdwmagic. Got to TTC and seeing at least 3 ferries worth of people waiting, we decided to walk to Poly and catch the boat there. Line was also epic and CMs recommended the walking...
