Today is Walt Disney’s 111th Birthday!!!! YAYYYYYY!!!
To celebrate, my blog will post nothing but Walt all day!!! woo hoo!!!
So happy birthday- to the man who dared to dream!
:D:D:D
Ok, so here’s the breakdown from last night.
I already mentioned the near death part, so I’ll skip that.
Wes and I headed straight to MK and got to the Liberty Square Sorcerers Outpost before the Electrical Parade started. Then we went straight to Fantasyland. That that’s where the above picture comes in.
Hey new wall! It’s beautiful.
It’s kinda crazy though because they’ve sectioned off all the walkway in front of where Snow’s Scary Adventure was, so you can’t even walk over there anymore. Plus, two of the Fantasyland Sorcerers Portals are blocked off because of the ongoing work to put up the Castle’s Christmas lights. I’m assuming they just direct players to the other three portals. I’m sure the lines in the middle of the day when everyone is playing are nuts.
Anyways, you can walk through the new wall, through to where Pooh is, to get back to Storybook Circus, where this is.

Nice right? But we couldn’t figure out why it’s not being lit yet. Disappointing, but maybe next time?
Ok, now I’m going out of order. Wes and I did Buzz & Peoplemover before Wishes. We like to watch over in front of Dumbo now, because they’re so much louder over there, and everything looks bigger and fabulous. And you can sit and not be blocked by anyone. ;)

Then Wes and I did the Tea cups and walked around Fantasyland some more. I picked the ear hat I want, but I decided to wait until next time to actually buy it so I can enjoy wearing it in the park. Wes and I were headed to Adventureland by way of Liberty Square, when we got the call to meet up with our parents. That’s when I overheard this…
Child: Should we go see the Hall of Presidents?
Father: We’ll go when Romney’s in there
I found to to be hilarious, but maybe that’s just me.
So we met up with Mom and Dad, and went into Haunted Mansion.
Either Mansion’s getting Fasspass again, or they’re rolling out something called Passpass +. Anyone heard of Fastpass + or am I crazy? It’s bullshit whatever it is. Right now, everyone is being diverted through the graveyard queue, and the direct route is marked with a sign that says
“Fasspass +
Entrance”
There are a few different looking Fasspass machines around, but I still have no clue what’s going on with that. I’ll keep my eyes and ears open.
Ok, and those “bathrooms” in between Mansion and Small World, are gonna be huge. Just sayin’.
So we headed back to Fantasyland to show off the new stuff to Mom and Dad. And we rode Dumbo, because Dumbo’s the best at night. I’m in love with photographing this ride at night, omg.

So then we were gonna run back around to do Pirates or Something before the park closed, when two Cast Members stopped us. The one guy asked us if we were having a magical night, and we all said of course. And Dad, playing around, was like “we were hoping to stay ‘til 2.” And the cast member was like, “2 huh? That’s kinda late. You’re gonna need something to keep you up. How does this work?” And the other Cast Member, pulled this out from behind a box she was carrying.

Like, OMG, it was the biggest sundae I’ve ever seen inside of MK. Like a mini Kitchen sink, and it was free. They way they were talking, I though we had a shot at the Castle Suite, but hey, I’ll take free ice cream any day. lol. I mean, look at this thing!

So we didn’t get to ride anything else, because we were noming on our dessert, but it was still nice just to leisurely walk around.
Also, I found my shirt I want. It’s blue and looks like Donald’s sailor suit. I want to to wear with my Donald Magical Ribbons so bad. We did some other shopping, including the had shop on Main Street, and I met this guy wearing a Daring Doo shirt I had to complement him on. He was nice, and we talked pony for a bit before parting ways.
The rest of the evening went smoothly. Ride home was nice and quiet, and we didn’t get back too late. So it was a good day. :)
OMG! I Forgot!
We got to go in Dumbo’s interactive queue last night! It was really cute, but I wish I was younger so I could really enjoy it. Wes and I snuck up the stairs and walked around up there for a little bit before Mom made us come down.


I think my favorite thing about Storybook Circus is the colors. Toontown was washed out and pastel in comparison to the new areas.
My favorites of the photos from my last Disney Day with my brother.
Name: Prissy
First Appeared: 1941
Fun Fact: Cels for Dumbo are the rarest in the industry. The animators, after the scene was safely “in the can”, would strew the used cels in the corridors and go sliding on them. In addition the gray paint (used for so many of the elephant skins) would “pop” when the cel was flexed. Many irreplaceable cels were destroyed this way.
So cool. I Waaaaant this job….
