Hi.

Yes.
Yes.

Too sweet, and everywhere you looked.

To see the 10:00 show - crazy. To ride rides - nowhere near as bad as you'd expect.

Don't know, wasn't there.

We will post ours ASAP.

You're welcome. Much, much more later.

It rocked...

I cried on Main Street (seeing smiling CMs of all sorts lining both sides of Main Street welcoming us in - it just got to me)
I screamed until I could no longer talk...
I am still smiling, despite the soreness

I am guessing trip reports from the July 17 weekend are slow to come at the LoT because people are 1) Still recuperating from the weekend. 2) Still at Disneyland. 3) At work and do not have the time to post. 3) Still need to download photos. 4) Any combination of the above.

As for me, I still need to download photos and would rather illustrate the text report with accompanying photos to enhance the memories and virtual experience (for anyone who could not attend). Also, I am at work right now, but will do my best to give a detailed report this evening with a lot of photos, including photo highlights of the Noon Meet, Storming the Castle, and Taking Over The Carrousel. It will be worth the wait.

Did NA get her horsey ride?

Yep, and it was awesome! Highlight of the day for us. Well, one of two. Walking in at 7am and being greeted by all of the cast members (including Matt) lining the streets was pretty damn cool. Totally took us by surprise.

Did 80 of her close friends join in?

I think there were 70 of us, singing happy birthday to disneyland, doing the wave, and other geeky things.

How were the cupcakes?

Sweet enough to kill a diabetic.

How were the crowds?

Not as bad as we expected. All rides were a walk-on for the first hour or so at least, while everyone waited for merchandise or camped out for a good spot for the birthday "festivities". Later in the day, the crowds started thinning out. Guess, a lot of people were there primarily for the merchandise and ceremony. By 1pm, it looked like any typical summer weekend day.

I'm so glad a fun time was had by all (or at least most of all)!

I did a "Sally Struthers" video commentary/report on the homeless people on the streets in Hollywood Pictures Backlot. Morrigoon has it, and I'll help her upload it hopefully sometime this week. We had people cracking up.

Just one of the lines I used: "For cost of one churro, you can provide a Dole Whip to a homeless geek. Won't you please help?"

We also have a picture of her with a "Will Work for Dole Whip" sign, with her gold ears overturned, containing a few "donated" dollars.
