just curious is there a way to get the link for the discounted tickets for next weekend if you did not sign up for the wreck it ralph takeover? thanks for your help
It is isn't it. We didn't go in on our first trip there and couldn't believe it when we went in on our second trip. It's so full of things. Love it. - TrueFromOzLovesDisney312.2 #546 1-26-13 10:40PMLike Reply
There is really so much to see and do.. we will definitely go back and spend more time next trip - PrincessLaShell 13.0 #6032 1-26-13 10:43PM
You could spend at least half a day in there. Did you talk to crush or do the animation class? - TrueFromOzLovesDisney 312.2 #546 1-26-13 10:51PM
Thanks it was cool..saw things that I had never seen.. just got a new phone samgung galaxy s3 which takes cool pics :) - PrincessLaShell 13.0 #6032 1-5-13 4:53PM
im new to mw and have yet to make it to my 1st meetup..I would love for you guys to share your 1st mw meetup experience! ...
My first meetup was the birthday bash at the grand and my hands were shakey and nervous, even though at time I already met disneyRose and uscdisneyteacher I was beyond nervous. I checked in and recognize so many faces. I swallowed my fear and sat down and starting talking to ivegotnostrings and marina and Hollygolliath and her daughter. My hands were clammy still and I still felt uncomfortable but I decided I needed to introduce myself to more faces I recognized like Dave, h3d Sue, BooEve and everyone I admired and always wanted to meet. That night there was MWers everywhere, they would join to be one group, then separate into small groups. Laughter came easy, and everyone felt as if I've known them forever. I lost track of time and you end up closing the park and not even notice it. That was one of the best day/night I ever had. 99% of everyone I met that day I am still so close with and I love dearly. It was a scary time and I still was nervous at other meet ups but before I knew it, I felt everyone like a family and I couldn't wait to see them again. So yes, it's scary and it's out of your comfort zone and you know these are strangers but in reality they are friends you haven't met yet.... - MarshaMouse2835.3 #15 12-31-12 12:15AMLike(11) Reply
Awesome ...very encouraging marshamouse! Thank you for sharing...glad im not alone in my shyness! - PrincessLaShell 13.0 #6032 12-31-12 12:27AM
We all felt it...shyness goes away after your second meetup, or so - MarshaMouse 2835.3 #15 12-31-12 12:42AM
My first meetup was at Trader Sam's this past May, I was so nervous. I was intimidated to walk up to the group but was happy that I did. I met Willierose, Cara, Bambi, the Evils, Madsdad and some other awesome peeps. I'm a shy person and still get nervous to meet new MWers but the more I introduce myself, the easier it gets. - Vegan7LuvsStitch799.6 #116 12-30-12 7:57PMLike(1) Reply
Thanks for sharing! Im not normally a "shy" but for some reason I feel shy when it comes to the meetups!
Hopefully I'll get over it..seems smart to meet ppl who share my love for disney! - PrincessLaShell 13.0 #6032 12-30-12 8:01PM
I remember that meet up! 😋 - PrincessMacy 501.6 #235 12-30-12 11:50PM
My 1st meetup was Leap Day at the AstroBlasters, that was hosted by VFX. Soooo many MW'rs. I was shy but introduced myself to SueBayou and she was very sweet and welcoming amongst all the chaos. I met CaraMiaPooh and Sparrow, MelB, Fredo and Alex and a several others. Had run ins at the park that week with several MW'rs and everyone was very, VERY nice! I wish I live closer so I could attend more and get to know everyone better. There are many I would still love to meet. You'll fit right in!

Thank you for posting this PrincessLaShell! I am also new here and when I started seeing posts and pictures about meet ups it made me nervous! Don't get me wrong I love making new friends but it is hard to go up to someone you don't know and say hello. At least it is for me LOL!! So hearing everyone's stories made me feel a lot better about it and I see that I am not the only one feeling nervous. I don't know when I will be ready to go to a meet up or even able to make it to one but I will definitely try :-) Thank you everyone for your stories. You all made me feel so much better about meet ups and can't wait to meet you all :-) - MrsTinkPan9.7 #6856 12-31-12 6:18PMLike Reply
You are welcome...I felt so lucky to have so many people share their memories! - PrincessLaShell 13.0 #6032 1-5-13 4:51PM
hey everyone groupon has discounted tickets to 3d monsters inc at el capitan.... thought some of you would enjoy this even though its not Disneyland specific :)
Cool, I'm going to have to check this place out - Philliprocks276.1 #763 12-11-12 6:57AMLike Reply
Yes the outlet is at las americas premium outlet which is literally on the border.... this outlet had lots of good deals ...think anyone who wants to do some christmas shopping and is close to this should go! I will say the majority of stuff were toys and little kid clothes...bbut lots of iphone ipad stuff as well - PrincessLaShell13.0 #6032 12-11-12 7:41AMLike Reply
They also have lots of vinyls & merchandise changes frequently. They didn't have that tank two weeks ago, it's cute! - ShariRenee 1505.4 #51 12-11-12 9:32AM
awesome ursula pin my husnabnd (ursulas lover) traded for today at the pin meetup...it was our 1st meetup although we stayed incognito... all the pins were awesome!
I wasn't tooo fond of it ...seemed like it took longer to get in - PrincessLaShell 13.0 #6032 10-21-12 6:15PM
It's nice in the evening--busses leaving the parks seem to get you back to your car quickly :) We like the structure in the morning. We usually leave for a rest in the afternoon and use TS lot in the evening. - Spoonful_O_Sugar 435.9 #285 10-21-12 6:21PM

hubby and i want to try Cove Bar for some lobster nachos and tri tip sliders since MW alwasy faves about them... how are the drinks there??
Phenomenal! Pretty good beer selection. The Bloody Mary is tasty (if they still have it), and the pomegranate splash (I think that's the name) is refreshing. The habanero margarita is really good too. - KissDclown1088.1 #77 9-23-12 3:45PMLike(1) Reply
The white Sangria is so refreshing and tasty, not too fruity at all. So perfect - MarshaMouse2835.3 #15 9-23-12 3:51PMLike(1) Reply
We rave about the black pearl. The drinks are pretty strong and tasty - MarshaMouse 2835.3 #15 9-23-12 3:51PM
Thanks ladies they all sound yummy!
I am new to MW and I love all the tips I'm getting for our trips.I have also seen many of the meetups but have not been to one...can anyone show up?
A meetup at Cove Bar would be fun... let me know if this ever happens
Ty for the tips... I look forward to meeting my fellow mw peeps and many disney memories to come! - PrincessLaShell13.0 #6032 9-23-12 4:02PMLike Reply
