I am a SoCal girl with an appreciation for all things Disney.
I love to surf on MW throughout the day & see what wonderful things all you fellow MWers are up too.
It's time for, "Over heard at the Stage Door Cafe"..... as I awaited my party outside over looking the menu, 2 teenage girls are discussing the menu. 1st Girl:"Funnuel cake, Chicken strips & chips, Fish & chips, ......" 2nd Girl:"What' More...

I just want to welcome to The Lounge any new members to MW thanks to the Disneyland FB post.

My Uncle is visiting this week & I was just blessed to hear some of my family Disneyland history. I learnef that my Grandfather worked for a company that built Disneyland. And was there ..opening day..July 18, 1955. Pretty neat to lear More...
I would have let them on and let it crash and then give them something to winge about. My goodness what is the world conning to when parents complain about a ride breaking down. Send them to Knox - puddy7784.2 #3226 8-12-11 2:21PMLike Reply

Whenever I am in the parks I cannot participate on MW due to TECH difficulties with my cell and it makes me super sad!
I have an HTC EVO thru Sprint with all the plans bells and whistles.
Does anyone else have Sprint and thes More...

So, my lil one,(almost 2) is sadly very nervous of characters in the park (even Mickey!); except the ones like Princesses that look human.Has anyone else had this issue with their kiddo and how did they get over it?
When I was little I hated Santa and the Easter bunny but was never afraid of the Disney characters hopefully ur kiddo won't be scared when u go - princessVanessa382.5 #353 8-10-11 10:36PMLike Reply
We've went already;she is nervous. She is happy to watch them from a small distance and if someone is between her & the character she is better. But when we take her to princess area for stories and such..she is a hugging smiling nut & can't get enough TLC from them! - MWer_Lizzie113.6 #2848 8-10-11 10:43PMLike Reply
My kids were the same way. One of my twins would run & hide if he saw one! I think the character breakfasts help because they could watch them from afar with other kids and it took a few times but they warmed up to them. - supertracy435.6 #286 8-10-11 11:00PMLike Reply
All four of mine had a fear of "characters" some more than others....I don't have one good picture of them with Santa either. Like most have already said, just give her time...she'll come around :) - bagglady342.9 #426 8-10-11 11:15PMLike Reply
Tomorrow, I will be in the parks celebrating my kid's bday. We are starting the day with breakfast with Minnie. Can any MWer out there give me any tips or suggestions to make it an extra special visit? I know about the bday button in C More...
I don't know of any specific places that give special treats. It just depends on the cast members. That's half the fun. Total surprise! - GusGus776.2 #125 8-10-11 9:01PMLike Reply
There are also cupcakes in a couple places you could do too. Isn't it plaza inn that has the yummy looking red velvet one? Someone has a pic of it up on the site now too. I've heard its really good. There is the one at the Hungry Bear as well. No matter what hope you both have fun in the parks! - TheRealEvilQueen24.4 #4715 8-10-11 10:56PMLike Reply
We will have fun; she want to spend the whole day in FantasyLand & Toon Town!
I didn't know the HungryBear had cupcakes...Momma is gonna need one of those too!

I was @ the parks on Father's Day & I was having major issues with MW not working. I was wondering if anyone could let me know if MW was having issues that day or was it my cell carrier?
Thanks MWers!

I haven't been to DL since 2008 & it will be my first to DCA...I am so excited!!! Any other MWer's gonna be there?

Dang! That is a long time. Are you going to the parks today? If you take your id and cc to the ticket booth they can pull it for you. Good luck. - Katrayher739.1 #138 6-11-11 7:15PMLike Reply
I was thinking about going tomorrow but I don't know if I can swing the trip. Thing are tricky here on the home front with family health issues...so we have to play it by ear.
Thanks for good advice Katrayher; but I used my hubby's CC...but I did put my info on AP. - MWer_Lizzie113.6 #2848 6-11-11 7:25PMLike Reply
