Right now it's 1:30am (yes, Anaheim time) and I'm pooped !

I called Mammasilva this morning and got some word over a bad connection about Space Mountain. We went there, and never got to meet up again

I'm not sure what happened to our phones, but I could never get through to MS, and if she called, it didn't come through. That was sad, because we wanted to giver her a BIG hug and thank her for the wonderful day yesterday (Sun)

BTW: 3894/Helen gave us beautiful Cheese Fezzes, which MS presented at the character breakfast. Yes, a Fez each made from cheese. Chip & Dale nearly made off with them for their own, but we got them back, and we will be modelling them at the Lash Out Cocktail Party. Big hugs & Thanks for the most original headgear EVER !

Tonight we had an impromptu meet of Zapppop (who joined us PM at the Rainforest Cafe - ask about my Lightning Glass Mai Tai sometime), Gemini Cricket, iSm, Lashstoat & myself. I don't think the family at the next table in Redd Rockets was quite ready for the conversation !

I got to ride Space-Mountain-With-The-Lights-On AKA Rockin' space mountain tonight and it seems slower when you can see the track. Nice music though. Sorry I can't see the 2005 refurb benefits this trip.

We ended up after "wishes" at Mimis for dinner. Much midnight oil was burned, and I'm going to sleep in tomorrow !!!!

See you all at the park tomorrow afternoon. Call me (after midday)......(714) 718 6394

Yeah! I would have loved to say Hi!

I was at the parks Sunday, and boy was it crowded. Spring Break I guess. Poor Lashes have to put up with such a huge crowd! Hows it been so far during the week days?

innerSpaceman · 03-27-2007, 07:33 AM

I believe the Cheese Fezi, Fezes, er, Chezes ... were a care package of sorts (I saw a note from Helen with a terrible pun about wearing them being the "whey to be cool").

Yay! Met the Lashes last night at last. TeeHee, I'm off to the office with zero sleep, and I don't care!

innerSpaceman · 03-27-2007, 08:46 AM

oh, we never did find a napkin or a park map to indicate all the best fireworks spots.

Here's my three faves, other than smack-dap in front of the Castle.

In Fantasyland, there's a small space between Dumbo and Monstro the Whale where you can orient yourself to see both a bit of the Castle and the Matterhorn. This is a great sensurround spot, with the show taking place in 360 degrees. Not great for filming, unless you know exactly when to look where ... but a great spot for being overwhelmed, and for seeing Tinkerbell's flight really close up.

Surprisingly, one of my other fave locations is the roof of the Parking Structure.

And (hoping you'll save this one for Thursday, in case I make it down again) the other terrific location is near it's a small world ... on the hill that leads down to ToonTown, if they don't have that roped off. Otherwise, on the risers in a spot where you can look towards the Fantasyland Theater area (where the main fireworks will be) without a giant light tower blocking your view.

Enjoy.

I don't know, it can't be all that bad.... Stoat reports that he distinctly saw a square foot of empty pavement in tomorowland at one point !

....and there was NO queue at ALL for the peoplemover.

Ghoulish Delight · 03-27-2007, 12:32 PM

We spent nearly a full day at the park with CP's family, who hadn't been there in, oh, 12 years. We did nearly everything (save for a few dark rides and other small attractions). It was crowded, but we got there when the park opened, took our time, made good use of Fastpasses and managed to have a very fulfilling day without wearing ourselves out. It's amazing how doing the tourist thing really does make the crowds more manageable. When you have the same goals as the crowd, you're working with it rather than fighting against it.

lashbear · 03-27-2007, 01:05 PM

Right ! We found we could get a nice range of fastpasses by utilising both parks at the same time. There was very little time to wait inbetween fastpasses.
