    Disneyland over Christmas – which day?

    Yes! My girlfriend and I stood in the Single Rider line in the cold at around 9:00 PM. The line went by pretty quickly, but I'm sure the beer helped with that ;) Incredible detail all around. It didn't feel like a Test Track clone at all despite when I was expecting. I was really impressed with...

    Disneyland over Christmas – which day?

    Thanks! 30 minutes for Indy when we first got there. Had Fast Passes for Thunder Mountain, California Screamin', Tower of Terror, Space Mountain, and Roger Rabbit. Haunted Mansion Holiday and Mr. Toad were just under 30 minutes. Winnie the Pooh was walk-on. Waited 20 minutes to meet Thor...

    Is the clock ticking on the Sorcerer Mickey Hat icon at the Studios? YES!

    After visiting the real Chinese Theatre on Saturday, I can't wait until this one's view is returned to its former glory. I never realized how sketchy the real Hollywood Blvd is. I'd take Disney's version over it any day of the week.

    Disneyland over Christmas – which day?

    Thanks everyone for the advice and tips. I hadn't seen that Guide-To-DLR-For-WDW-Veterans thread before, it was really helpful. Overall, we had an awesome time. Due to some off-site hotel issues the night before, my gf and I slept in later than we were planning to. The parks opened at 8:00 and...

    Disneyland over Christmas – which day?

    Suggestions as to how to maximize our time in the parks to see as much as possible. Definitely won't skip those. Thanks for the advice and the optimism. If I had to choose, I think I'd ather see Wold of Color, even if DL's Fantastmic is better. How does Fastpass work between the two parks? If...

    Disneyland over Christmas – which day?

    Due to an unexpected health problem with my girlfriend's grandfather, we will be in CA for New Years instead of Houston. This is my first time to California and the only chance I'll have to go to Disneyland for at least the next five years, so we're going to the park on the 2nd. I've mentally...

    2014 Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party

    Thanks. The only reason I ask is because last year they didn't have any of the chocolate chip ones, only snickerdoodle. At least they didn't when I went December 14th. The chocolate chip cookies are my girlfriend's favorite and I'm trying to figure out if I should bake some to bring if there...

    Random question, does anyone know what type of cookies they're passing out this year? :p

    Podcasts

    I know there are a lot of people out there who aren't the biggest fans of Lou at wdwradio, but his podcasts have a lot of valuable info. In the early days of the podcast, the show was more of a discussion with rumors and opinions. These days it's more of individual analyses of attractions and...

    'The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror 10-Miler Weekend'

    Does anyone know if Marathonfoto.com ever sends out coupon codes? There are a bunch of photos from this past weekend that I really like, but if I can save some money here or there, that'd be perfect. I even tried to run through the finish line next to my girlfriend so we'd only have to buy one...

    'The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror 10-Miler Weekend'

    I had a fantastic time running this race. It was my girlfriend's first long distance race, so she was worried about her breathing. The weather was so perfect, she completely abandoned her run/walk strategy. We stopped a couple of times for pictures and one bathroom break, but it was so nice out...

    'The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror 10-Miler Weekend'

    Someone on another site is reporting that the actual running shirt only has the Tower on it, no dragon. Can anyone who's at the Expo confirm this?

    Inaugural Star Wars Half Marathon Weekend - January 15-18, 2015 (Disneyland)

    I'm know this would never happen, but since they keep adding more races, it would be great if they eased off on raising the prices every year. But that's not how capitalism works, I know :(

    MNSSHP: Yay or Nay?

    Absolutely yes! And if you take advantage of the fact that they'll let you into the park earlier than the party's start, I think around 4PM, that's a good 8 hours in the park with significantly shorter lines. Cheaper ticket, shorter lines, better parade, amazing fireworks? DEFINITELY DO IT!

    which race should i run?

    WOW! I was considering taking the Coast to Coast challenge and checked DLR 1/2 prices... RIDICULOUS! Why is it so freakin' expensive?! I figured, I'll be in California, might as well do both the 10K and the 1/2 to get the Dumbo medal, but damn, $320 plus my plane ticket plus hotel plus I'll want...

    Frozen on Broadway, what?

    Saw Newsies last year and it's now one of my all time favorite musicals. Not a "deep" story by any means, but amazing dancing and fantastic songs. A must-see in my opinion.

    Removal of Main Street Christmas Wreaths Due to New Parade

    They could always cut up pieces of the wreaths and sell them in little bubbles on pins... jk... sorta... :cautious:

    WDW to Build New North Entrance to Property

    The problem with removing this "Return to MK parking" left exit is that's the overflow solution for the resorts in the area. For example, on Sunday, I tried to meet up with some friends over at the Contemporary to check out the hotel and maybe grab a bite to eat, but because of the Christmas...
