Mickey was so impressed that I ran the 10K this morning...what a guy!
I can't blame him ... that's a pretty impressive accomplishment!
After breakfast, I did something strange...
I went...
...to Pixie Hollow. Gasp!
Wait ... what? Who are you and what have you done with @Ariel484??
The girls loved my Ariel shoes (feeling the mermaid vibes today with my capris and shoes!) - one of them (a fellow redhead) told me that Ariel is her favorite princess.
"Because she has red hair like you, right?" I asked.
"Yes!!" she replied happily.
Because, I’m not gonna lie...that’s like 75% of the reason Ariel is MY favorite.
Anna also has red hair ... just saying.
I’m almost embarrassed to show you this picture, because I think it makes me look like a giant cow...because LOOK at Tink’s tiny little legs!!!!
I think you look great. You can't run on Tink's legs - that's why she has to fly.
Also, here’s the PhotoPass picture...way different lighting and coloring compared to what came out of my phone! And clearly they did some sort of red-eye correction on me…
This picture looks great! And very familiar, like it was in an INKnBURN montage of some sort...
I hopped in line to hear the Evil Queen asking the person in front of me, “why did you bring HER?” pointing to the women’s very, very young baby.
“She won’t remember this! What’s the point?!”
The woman stammered something about memories for herself...my meet with her was similar. I can’t remember exactly what she said to me, but I do remember that it rendered me almost speechless!
I get that it's in character, and that's awesome, but ... a little mean there.
Actually, now that I think about it...pretty sure she said something about not liking my outfit. Which, come on...my outfit was ON POINT that day.
Yes, your outfit abolutely was on point! Clearly she just couldn't think of anything mean to say to you because you're so awesome, so she had to lie.
a woman, a total stranger, stopped me and asked if she could take my picture. I didn't answer right away (because...WUT?) and she just said, “because you're so colorful, with your outfit and your medal!” Between this very strange request and the whole credit card thing, I was pretty flustered and just said, “sure.” So now a total stranger has a picture of me. I'd say it's somewhat flattering, but mostly I'm not sure what to think about it!
Um ... not sure how to react to this. Weird? Flattering? Both? Neither?
I wonder if maybe she was some sort of Disney blogger who takes pictures of fun outfits at Disneyland? People do a lot of weird things on the internet.
or whatever reason I paused in front of the Emporium at some point, standing there with my hands folded...thinking, I guess? Suddenly, a big Goof was next to me! Also standing, hands folded, just thinking. Or something!
That is awesome!!! I love random character encounters, they're so fun!
This seems as good a place as any to talk about Revelation #3, and I imagine I’ll get some flack for this one: I’m glad I stayed at the Disneyland Hotel once, but I don’t think I will again. The rooms are obviously very nice, but I don’t think they are that much nicer than the rooms at Paradise Pier...and Paradise Pier is a bit shorter of a walk to the parks than DLH is. Again, glad I tried it, but for the extra cost, I don’t know that it’ll be worth it for me to stay there again.
ANYWAY...are you all still my friends?
Maybe. I can't judge that until after I stay at one or both of them. I still haven't stayed onsite at Disneyland, so I'm not really qualified to unfriend people based on their DL hotel choices at this point.
All the birds sing words, and the flower...croon? Bloom? Swoon? They do something!
All the birds sing words and the flowers mumble ... mumbling always solves word problems.
Mountains! Bought this hand sanitizer in the shop.
Awesome!
They have a lot of fun hand sanitizers at Disney ... I always want to buy them, but I'm too loyal to Bath & Body Works hand sanitizers to buy anything else.
And then off to Tomorrowland. Which looked like THIS pretty much the entire weekend - ugh!!
Crazy!!
The ride wasn’t down for long though - yay! I got a front seat all to myself.
Very cool! I've never sat alone on Space Mountain (although I think I have sat in the front) ... it seems weird ...
We headed back to our hotel to check on Steakhouse 55...morning-of emergency bib pick-up DOES exist in Disneyland! And from what I have read here on the boards, it’s REALLY hard to find!
Interesting ... if they have a sign about it, you'd think they'd make it not so hard to find...
And then...bedtime! Up next: the last full day!
Last full day ... sad
