I loved it!

It was fun too people watch too! Loved watching the "ZoeTrope".

I think my daughter would love it, now that she's older.

Your man-crush on Matt has never been so lovingly documented.

But damn was that walk to Big Thunder in his wake one of the most entertaining few hundred yards of my life. NM captured it perfectly, literally 2 out of every 3 people were giving themselves whiplash. It was awesome.

Good times, thanks for that.

I love going to the park with MattMatt. Reactions are so entertaining. Last time we were there two guys walked past, one said to the other "is that a girl or a dude?"

Great video - fun times!

Awesome - I was thinking wow everyone looks like they're having so much fun - oh wait there I am. I must be getting senile.

OH wow.. I figured that I've been gone so long, there was no way I would be in this video. I got over it and watched it anyway

Sure 'nuff, I was there, and it captured one of the best days I had in the park... one of the last times I was there... with some really great friends.

Thanks, NM.

I was completely confused as to why you were in it but I wasn't. I know I'm camera shy, but that was one heck of a hiding job - all the way in Vegas.

It was the I'm Dreaming of a Swank Christmas meet.

And where the heck was I? Oh, yeah. Working my Larchmont Market on a Sunday. I did get to join the group for the crazy, duelling message boards Jazz Kitchen dinner. There is a picture of me with a spoon on my nose. Verrry swanky.

A quick nearly elevator filling ride on ToT (who where those two other people) that led to screamy goodness. Then off to the real park for the bathroom and locker rides. Always exciting. Another FP run for Space by iSm.

There was some Haunted action, thundery delight and great people watching. Even better, watching (and filming) people watch TheaterTech in his fantastic ensemble that had him looking down upon Maleficent.

Watching the castle transform in a snowy delight then a rush to the Jazz Kitchen where it happened to be a certain MonorailMan's big birthday and all were in attendance, even he whose name is only whispered and gestured.

A sprint by iSm and I (capturing Bornieo in tow locked arm in arm on the way) to make it into the park for the beginning of the fireworks. The LoT others meandered in eventually for a delightfully sudsy conclusion.

A ride on space followed by light watching where the rainbow glasses were clearly trumped afterwards by Jew and Snowflake lenses (particularly spectacular during fireworks). A group photo, farewellagains and a quick departure. Or not.

A sudden change of plans (spontaneity rocks) left Eliza, He Who No Longer Posts, and me in an empty Christmasy Disneyland to enjoy for ourselves for a bit longer. This was perhaps the most magical part of the day. I always love walking around DL when it is empty, and since the 50th, those opportunities seem increasingly rare. But with the Christmas decorations, a chill in the air and the wonderful company and passionate insider stories shared while walking about and taking it all in. Well it was a delightful cocktail indeed.

Quite the nightcap to a fantastic day.
