My Bonus Trip to WDW – Part 5

Posted on by Laura Gilbreath
You can blame commando Lee for the fact that there was no blog entry yesterday. Since it was his only day to play in the parks he made the most of it – we got a short afternoon break back in the room, but that was it. We started our day with a three mile … Continue reading "My Bonus Trip to WDW – Part 5"

Blog Follow-ups

Posted on by Laura Gilbreath
I thought I’d post some follow-ups to a couple of previous blog entries. Last week I wrote about the new House of the Future, coming to Disneyland in May. (That blog entry can be found HERE.)

The exhibit is in the main room of the building – sort of a maze-like set-up of walls with some photos and artwork and copies of cels … Continue reading "DCA – Fun at the Snow White 70th Anniversary Exhibit"

More Disney’s HalloweenTime

Posted on by Laura Gilbreath
Disney’s HalloweenTime is becoming one of my favorite times of year at the Disneyland Resort – it’s just so festive and fun! The Halloween decorations are really clever – I like the huge character pumpkins sitting atop Disneyland’s entrance. Not to mention the candy corn appearance of the “CALIFORNIA” letters in front of Disney’s California … Continue reading "More Disney’s HalloweenTime"

All Ears® Team Member Linda Eckwerth attended this past weekend’s MagicMeets festivities. My memories are just unbelievable. Fred, you out did yourself, yet again! This is the third Meet that Deb and I have attended. I must admit that I was hesitant about the first one, (Fred’s second).
