Happy Birthday to me!

Let's see.. I want Amazon Gift Cards and the Star Wars EU being confirmed as cannon in the Star Wars Universe.

Bet I get neither.

Goodbye to Disney World

 Here's a few most pictures from our last night there. Here's our Tour Guide from the Jungle Cruise we'd taken earlier that day. She was STILL there with a smile even after 11 straight hours at work!! Unbelievable!

 One of Megan's favorite people to meet was Tarzan. I think he beat out Aladdin in Megan's book of Disney Hunks. She kept talking about him all that night. But I don't trust him. Word is, he's a swinger! (wocka! wocka!)

Halloween is the only time at Disney World where adults are allowed to dress up. And look at what this party did! The light's a little poor in this picture I know, but that's because I took it and had no idea how to work the flash. Still, you can see how good their costumes look. Everyone was taking pictures of them there.

Ok folks, have a great weekend! Next week I'll show you some final videos of our trip to Discovery Cove!

Hallowishes (6)

 Now for a few amazing pictures Megan took of the show.

 It's incredible the things Disney can do with lights.

 Transforming the castle over and over again is pure "magic"

 I was impressed, needless to say.

And the fireworks show was hands down the best I'll ever see in my lifetime, I can guarantee you that!

Today I'm going to be posting videos and pictures from the Hallowishes light and firework show from Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween. It's was truly amazing and I hope you enjoy!

Boo to You (14)

 Megan's absolute favorite part of the show.

 These guys were awesome.

 And Megan said THIS is who she would want to be in the show.

 They were great. (as you saw in the video)

 Clarabell Cow

 Sheriff of Nottingham

Goofy Mobile.

Boo to You (13)

 The headless horseman is the forerunner before the parade. His music is creepy and give you a thrill because you know what follows.

 Pinnochio and Gepetto

 Daisy Duck

 Kanga and Roo

 Capt Hook

Megan loved the pirate music in the show.

Megan still sings this song today!

Monster's Ball (4)

 Here's a few pics from that night.

 Bubber burning up the dance floor!

Cupid Shuffle Bub!

Monster's Ball (3)

This was Megan's favorite part of the night. She kept asking me if I got the shot of her doing the Cupid Shuffle with the Monsters.

Ah, fun times.

I'll post a few picks from the Ball next.

Monster's Ball (2)

The moment Megan saw the dance floor out there she ran right on to it, like me at a Star Wars convention at a Slave Leia dance off!

Monster's Ball (1)

Our first Disney Halloween night was all about business. Getting pics with everyone we could and waiting thru all the lines.

This night our focus was to have a much fun as we could. And one of the first things Megan wanted to do was go to the Monster's Inc Ball.

More vids and pics posted later today.

Happy Memorial Day!

Whatever you do that's special that day... like... nothing.

STAR WARS: "Legends" Full Trailer

Sunday bonus video!

Here's a short clip of Meg and I stopping to get a bite to eat before our last night there. What was cool is that we got to hear the opening announcement of the Halloween nights at Disney World. It was fun to hear it right as the sun set. Perfect timing!

Notice how Megan's not talking. She's hungry and NOT in the mood for Disney happiness, as you can tell by the look on her face! Ha ha ha ha!

June Movie review

My my my, is it already time again to talk about new movie releases for the month of June?

There's only one on the list worthy to talk about so let's get it over with.

Transformers 4 Age of Extinction

No. The last 2 movies didn't get the chance to rob me at the box office (though my dollar spent at Redbox is long gone) What makes you think I'd spend anymore time watching any movie directed by Michael Bay?!

"But Grimlock's going to be in it!"

Really? WHO CARES!? It's still going to suck and I'm not wasting my time with it.

Besides that, is there anything else coming out in June worth watching?

More Misc Pics

 After seeing Gaston the night before she had to take another picture of his Tavern.

The camera guy didn't get it but Woody and I actually had a shoot out...I won.

Getting our picture with these two took the longest. They sat and talked for HOURS with people. We waited in line 3 times for a chance to see them. They took 20 minutes with each guest, which meant after 3 parties, they went back in and traded place with the Genie and Jasmine which took an average of 2 minutes per guest. Though they were fun to visit with, it sure did SUCK waiting for them!

Street Parade (4)

 Here's the pics Megan took at the parade.

 The floats were fun, I think they were "birthday" themed.

 Party hats and presents. My best guess is "birthday"

 The Mad Hatter

 The Genie

 Donald

Megan... I mean Sebastian!

Street Parade (3)

Megan dancing in the street.

I'll post some pics she took from the parade next.

Save the EU

The Rebellion is growing and I encourage everyone interested in joining it on their Facebook page here.

A lot going on, be sure not to miss it!

Street Parade (2)

Don't know why but they only put some costume characters on the floats but NOT make them available for photo ops. Both Sebastian and Lumiere, Megan would have gone crazy for if we had the chance to take a picture with them.

Street Parade (1)

One thing Disney World prides itself in is it's parades. They always are able to bring a lot of energy to them every time.

More vids and pics will be posted through out the day.

Survivor Review

Jeff says it every year but I have to agree with him that this season was one of the best. For the first time since Survivor Thailand, 2 guys made it to the end. That rarely happens!

I wasn't a Tony fan, I was cheering for Spencer like 90% of America, but when he lost the challenge I knew he w's out.

Tony played a great game and deserved the win. No doubt about it.

And I hated Cass.

So next season is Blood vs Water 2, should be fun considering the surprise cast they had for the first one I'm interested to see who will be chosen this time around.

Until then!

Indy Speed Way (2)

Indy Speed Way (1)

This "boring" ride I was willing to skip, but since we had plenty of time we went ahead and tried it out. Though not my favorite, I think we had more time laughing at ourselves than anything else.

Another video coming shortly.

The People Mover

On the list of "boring" rides was this one. A slow moving ride that literally does nothing but take you around and thru Tomorrow Land. For some unexplained reason the line was HUGE! I have no idea what the purpose of this ride is but for some strange reason would probably ride it again if we went back.

I know, I can't explain it either.

Ariel's Ride pics

 Since this was Megan's favorite ride hands down, I wanted to show off a few pics she took on the 3 combined times we rode this thing.

 The waiting area has a few knick-knacks from Ariel's cove.

 There's a mural of her next to where the ride starts.

 Of course you're riding in sea shells.

 Vid screens in the ceiling give you the feeling you're underwater.

 It's considered a "dark ride" by Disney's terms.

 You could tell a lot of work went in to the characters.

 I was shocked she got such a great pic considering how dark it was in there.

 Ariel receiving her voice back.

This is the part where Megan would turn to me and say "Can we ride it again?"

Preview pics

 Thought I'd post a few quick picks prior to the start of a new week.

 Megan Wanted this dress SO bad.

 Megan with her friend Dumbo

She made me take another by the side so you could see how "cute" he is all the way around.
