No, the last MouseAdventure I was present for was the last time, other than shooting the Pirates 3 red carpet (which involved no actual park seeing) that I was in the Disneyland Resort area. In fact, now that I think about it, it was the last time I was in Orange or LA counties (I was in Riverside County last week and immediately began driving to Palm Springs).

Stepping out of my primary roles at MousePlanet gave freedom for my extreme Disneyland burn-out to express itself. Even after this amount of time I find I still have no interest in going to the park. Maybe I'll wait for the 60th but I imagine a MouseAdventure will fit into my work schedule before then (not that those provide any time to actually visit the park in a fun way).

I've been to WDW twice in that window of time. The first time we got there and realized we had no interest in going to the parks so we did other things for three days instead. We went to the parks again in late October but that was more about friends than the parks, if it had just been the two of us I think we might have canceled the trip.

I'll probably be visiting DLP next fall as part of a much longer Europe trip and that will have the thrill of newness but otherwise at the moment I think whatever part of me enjoyed the parks for themselves (and not just as a place where I saw friends) has been bludgeoned to death through overexposure (it takes a lot of energy to not only know, but also have to care that four light poles in Tomorrowland have been painted with a new shade). Hopefully it regrows at some point. After making that 800 mile round trip drive a 6-10 times a year for almost seven years, it has been quite the change.

You know you love the shaving talk, Kevy.....
