disneyland HAS haters??? wha?

from the uber fabulous (oh he will just love that) geoff carter comes this for las vegas weekly:

Disneyland is a living piece of American pop art, as prominent a strand in the tapestry as Elvis or Star Wars. Millions of very different people—from Frank Sinatra to Barack Obama to Gwen Stefani to the Shah of Iran—have walked up Main Street, gazing fixedly at Sleeping Beauty Castle. They saw something there that they liked. You might, too, hater.

geoff lists his answers to the frequent complaints cited by those haters that lurk amongst us. i don’t think he’s really got an answer for the whole jonas brothers thing though.

MJ in Captain Eo

len testa wants YOU!

tweeted moments ago,the unofficial guide is looking for pics of families at WDW:

Ideally, the photos would reflect some piece of advice or information from within the Guide.  Examples might be character meals, character greetings, having fun on certain rides, restaurant details, or resorts.

soooooo, am thinking these might be ideal!

the Contemporary lobby makes a great place to hang out after drinking around the world at Epcot!

 

occaisionally, you might encounter a bit of a wait for Magical Express...

 

the monorail is a great way to make your V&A reservation on time!

 

the Tune In Lounge is a great place to cool off with friends!

 

mmmmm...TTNS, when open, provides both tasty foods AND great theming!

 

cool off in AK!

 

lunch at the Crystal Palace is fun!

 

if you do not pay attention to your chef in japan, she will poke you

 

TSMM rocks!

thanks to trace for linking me to this cute fathers day idea over at the Disney Family website:

awwwwwww!!!!! now if someone crafty could get on that please?

sea cruise: part deux

soooooo, yeah, i am going on another cruise at the end of this year. you know, the “it’s not [insert name of trademarked fan event that is not happening this year here under penalty of death] cruise in december… i cannot wait!

i have several friends going along on this trip, as well as a cabin mate. does PDA count on the high seas?

in any event, it’s months off, and i am suddenly obsessed with cruising and planning and what will i wear!

i suppose i find that preferable to actually like, getting up and exercising or something.

just to rub it in…

mr. broke hoedown posted a whole bunch of SWW posters a while back….

maybe i have mickey on the brain?

cause this looked like more than a cloud to me…

a trip report. of sorts.

thanks to sizzle, i found this:

I wanted to scream out that it wasn’t really Minnie, that it was some lady pretending to be Minnie, that the real Minnie isn’t made of plastic…but nothing came out, no reaction that was visible to anyone else.

 

 

 

 

 

 

enjoy!

amen, sister

I have nothing against princesses. I have nothing against movies with princesses. But don’t the Disney princesses pretty much have us covered? If we had to wait for your thirteenth movie for you to make one with a girl at the center, couldn’t you have chosen something — something — for her to be that could compete with plucky robots and adventurous space toys?

right.
