The Second 50th

[MickeyLumbo]

just returned from the Park for a preview of the "Happiest Balloon On Earth".

making it's only Disneyland appearance, Cast Members were invited to see it in the Castle Forecourt, prior to Park opening.

don't miss your chance to see this amazing hot air balloon, (think Ear Force One), in the shape of Mickey Mouse, with Golden Ears, tomorrow morning, (July 17th) from 4:00 am - 7:00am.

to help celebrate the 51st Anniversary of Disneyland, the "Happiest Balloon On Earth" will be available for public viewing, in the Esplanade from 4:00am - 7:00am. Live media broadcasts will cover the event, including a presentation by Disneyland President Matt Ouimet at approximately 6:30am.

Well, it will likely be large enough to see from my hotel balcony, and that's as close as I'm getting before 7am.

What a difference a year makes, when 50,000 people were in the Esplanade before dawn 364 days ago!


MBC - - bah! Oh, and I have something for you ... that I missed giving you last time when you left unexpectedly while you were the only LoT stoner not getting chronically high in the parking lot. WTF?

Anyway, work Sunday is one thing, but can't you two stop by the suite party on Sunday night???? If not, we must make other arrangements to get you your (disneyland) birthday gift.

Eh, I really wish we could. I have a gig today and Matthew works until 10:30. Plus, I'm already exhausted from last night. Throw another outdoor 100 degree gig on top and I'm going to be completely spent by the time I get home tonight.

We had every intention of being there Monday but Matthew got asked to cover a manager with a broken foot and I have to be in the office all day. We are heartbroken that we are missing a Disneyland B-day but there is just no way to work around it.

I sure hope we can make other arrangements, perhaps that elusive dinner we have been discussing. It was awfully kind of you to think of us.

WTF, indeed.

I was there the whole time and missed nothing.

GusGus and the RAC will be there on Monday. I will tell her who she can look for (I won't be there, save for possibly Monday evening after work)

[€uroMeinke]

I understand that on Monday there's a rededication ceremony at 4:45 - perhaps we should try to make that?

[Not Afraid]

I can vouch that he was in he parking lot. I saw that look in his eyes when he returned.

Oh, then perhaps you saw me almost faint. Maybe you saw me roll my eyes back into my skull and lie in a stupor for about an hour before I could move.

My more than one hit days are behind me.

That was scary.

But I don't remember MBC being out admiring the SacFamily car and I was not partaking in anything but admiring the car.

I feel so ... noteworthy.
