DL encompasses everything I consider to be magical. From the buildings, the shows, the rides and the CM's, it just fills me with a feeling I only experience inside those gates. Toy Story is my favorite Disney/Pixar film and Buzz is my favorite character
From what I've looked up, this particular lithograph isn't terribly expensive. No more than 40 on ebay. I'm happy with what I paid for it and it looks great over my mantle full of Disney stuff :-) - buzzfan3711.8 #6273 3-5-12 11:04PMLike Reply

I agree. It's become so trendy to thrift. I know in Vegas, they do color of the day sales and the tags with that color are marked down, which is a nice bonus. I haven't been to alot of thrift in Cali, just the salvation army in Fountain Valley. Found alot of good stuff there. - donaldduckgal6.8 #8322 1-7-12 10:18PMLike Reply
I received this Lego alien from a child that I coach soccer. this buzzfan loves it! do they sell these at the DTD Lego store by chance?I'd love a buzz lego keychain, too, of course. :-)

our New Year's card we recently sent out. love the castle in holiday decor :-)
I like the idea of a NYE card instead of Christmas. Seems more like a synopsis of a year instead of a cutesy brag session. (No offense to anyone who does a christmas card) - SteamboatMinnie309.8 #560 12-28-11 2:10PMLike(3) Reply
Thanks for all the compliments everyone! This was our first NYE card since we've been together (3 yrs) we figured we'd try something different instead of xmas cards that we usually do. - buzzfan3711.8 #6273 12-28-11 3:50PMLike Reply

Was this the ride the one where all the characters became ventriloquists? I can't quite remember which ride it was that had no mouth movement for most characters... it really made me sad though. If potc has mouth movements all over the place why doesn't a new ride like this? (Really hope this is the right ride, if not... anyone know which ride I'm thinking of?) - Chris_E25.6 #4604 12-24-11 1:53AMLike Reply
I think you have the right ride, however, ALL Dark Rides in the DLR do not have moving mouths. The ride that absolutely called for a moving mouth feature to the ride is TLM. It's meant as a family friendly ride and if the Monster Inc. characters had moving mouths I think we would have MANY frightened children. lol - Donaldfan_532 226.0 #1289 12-24-11 3:45AM

Cadillac Ranch has about 12 Cadillacs stuck in the ground in a pasture. Originally they were all one color, then were changed through the years for a variety of reasons. Now visitors are allowed to "grafitti" them! My daughter and I (and one of our dogs) took a road trip to New Orleans last Christmas. On our way home we drove a portion of Route 66, in part because we wanted to see the cars! Despite the cold (-5 at 6am) and our lack of really warm clothes, we got out with our spray cans and left 'our mark'! - Gia782.1 #119 12-18-11 9:57AMLike(5) Reply
