Wow! You packed so much into 48 hours.
Hi! Yes, we did! Well there was so much more, but we were okay with that. It was fun.
You just made my morning by telling me you rode Mr. Toad's Wild Ride! You know that was my absolute FAVORITE ride when I was a kid! I have still not completely forgiven Pooh for taking over that space at the Magic Kingdom.
I always have to pay my respects to Mr. Toad in the Haunted Mansion graveyard.
That is TOO funny! I know I know I agree, I remember it too, when I was a kid and from the last time I was there -- I never realized that it was at WDW until I remember hearing you lament the fact on one of your PTRs or TRs... So funny! The boys had a hoot riding it, seeing the weasels! They like The Fantastic Mr. Fox so they know about Weasels!
Love the skeletons in Frontierland -- what a festive bunch of guys.
Great aerial view of the Haunted Mansion from Tarzan's Treehouse.
So, how was the Blue Bayou??? Do tell!
They were very cute, skeletons and all! I think it was homage to Dia de las Muertos! I was expecting them to be animated!!
The Blue Bayou was fabulous! I really wish I had a glass of wine to go with my dinner, but it was very good. I think WDW has far better presentation and choices with the restaurants but it is understandable given the size, etc.
I also like tablecloths on the signature restaurants. Blue Bayou is a signature restaurant, at least it is in my eyes and price wise!
But regardless, the atmosphere cannot be beat.
I am cracking up over the boys on the Halloween catwalk! What fun!
I know! WHO would have know... "work it baby!"
The photos of the photopass pics tell it all. I'll share those tonight.
I was about to fuss at you for not including pics from Legoland, but I guess I can wait until your summer PTR.
You know they are going to build one in Orlando that is supposed to open in 2012. I just hope Connor is still into them by then (he will be 13 that year!
Okay, I am putting that in the denial box in my mind.
).
Thanks for sharing your great Disneyland trip with us! It's always so much fun reading about the Happydog gang!
I love it.... What a Southerism... "fuss at me"
I love it! Yes, I know I know, I figured I'd keep the Disneyland adventure a pure Disneyland trip, and that will give me something to share in my PTR... I DID see that they are coming to Orlando! 2012 seems to be the magic year for so much! New Disney upgrades, Universal, and Legoland! I am thinking we'll be up for a trip for certain that summer! Everyone in my family enjoyed
Lego Land. You'll see there is fun for everyone, so I bet he'll still enjoy it!
I am glad you enjoyed my whirlwind trip! I love sharing with you all!
Great pictures. It is so fun to get a look at Disneyland and Halloween looks to be the perfect time to visit! I have only been once and didn't get to see nearly everything. I made the mistake of thinking that I was so familiar with the Florida MK that I'd be right at home in DL... but it's so different!
What did you think of Blue Bayou? I didn't get to eat there but would love to for atmosphere alone!
Looking forward to hearing about San Diego, Christmas, your PTR plans and more Happy Dog fun.
In the meantime, Merry Christmas!!
Oh you are so right! It really is very different than MK, I agree! This may have been some of my challenge, as well. But, no matter it still was a fun time to see what we did.
Blue Bayou didn't disappoint, I enjoyed my food, we all did, but like I mentioned I would have enjoyed a glass of wine, too!
Well my Christmas TR will be up by tomorrow, I want to have it done before the New Year! I hope you have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year as well!
I'll post more replies and final pics on this TR tonight!
