Thanks for the review and the pictures, brings back fond memories. We've been twice to Orlando and once to LA. We've tried Paris just days after opening (1992), but they were so unorganized that we gave up standing in line to buy tickets after 2 hours.... We were at the opening of Disneyland in CA and then at the opening of Disneyworld FL 1972. Have not been back to either one since. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, Dani, I don’t have quality pictures as I’m impatient in trying to set up the perfect shot but what I lack in quality, I make it up in quantity. You may not see get best pics from me, but you sure will see lots of it. My wife is very handy, so she made her own Mickey ears and face masks for the family (YouTube was her best friend). The Mickey Mouse Face masks we were wearing were home made. Here are couple of her Mickey ears from December 2018 when we were in WDW. In case it’s not obvious, our whole family really enjoy Disney parks. My wife and I spent first part of our honeymoon at WDW and then did a Celebrity cruise after that. So Disney & cruises are equally weighted in our family vacation priorities. Somewhere down the road, we will go to Paris Disneyland as we want to see them in the order they were built: We have seen California then Florida then Japan. What’s left is Paris, then Hong Kong and finally Shanghai. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harryfat1 Posted August 18, 2021 #26431 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Continue with day 3: Couple more pics from Star Wars Land before we headed out: Saw Chewie hanging around the Falcon Not sure who this is from the Star Wars Universe. If anyone is a big fan, please let me know. As it was getting hotter by the minute, it was time to try to escape the heat and do an indoor ride. That meant “Small World” as it’s around 15 minutes and has A.C. Small World area in Disneyland is very elaborate with the façade front. If you come here during the holidays, it’s all pink and they change out the Small World song to play Holiday music. Totally different experience. Small world with no special holiday overlay Here’s an old picture from our December 2015 with the Holiday overlay 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be real interested in what percentage they sail at. Will it be 35% or more? A similar situation happened with my Symphony October 2 cruise. A few weeks ago it showed at least the balconies sold out. Since Antigua was replaced with St Thomas and then the rules changed for St Thomas, there are now balconies available. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harryfat1 Posted August 18, 2021 #26434 Share Posted August 18, 2021 So one of the iconic dessert at the Disney parks on both coasts is the Dole Whip pineapple soft serve. Just Google it or search it on YouTube and you will see lots of info on it. As with all things Disney, it’s not cheap but Cheapo Dad is willing to splurge once a day on special treats. We ordered it on the phone app but even then, the wait to finally get one from start to end took over 40 minutes. As we sat around Main Street eating our dessert, a Disney float came by Let it Go, Let it Go… Actually after I came home I realized that Float looked familiar and sure enough, it was the same Float used in the December 2015 parade. Guess Frozen is timeless/season less… Same float from Christmas 2015 parade 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes a lot of sense that things would open up after people cancelled. There's no way for any reason that I would cancel this upcoming sailing. I don't care what I have to do, what I have to wear or any other rules and restrictions. Because this dog knows what he needs. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then we saw it at the San Mateo County Fair and then at Disneyland. We had to have one so we splurged also. Ordered it on the app. We didn't wait as long as you though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great detail, funny and I love all the pics. Your Canon camera looks awesome. Thanks for the kind words. Glad the link/pictures still work from many years ago. I used to drop in the pictures via Flickr and other web hosted pages as the old CC forum was not user friendly in uploading photos from phone or home computer's C drive. I was worried those pics would be gone now as I no longer have Flickr account after they tried to extort money out of me when they went from free service to paid service. We started being lazy and stopped carrying around the old lumbering cameras the past several vacations. Cell phones have improved so much throughout the years that it's really simple to use. But it does have its limits in not really able to zoom in or take fast moving pictures like SLR/Zoom cameras can. We are looking to do an Alaska cruise in summer of 2022 (Covid willing). For that, I will probably have to bring out the big guns and get the SLR and mega zoom cameras as Alaska scenery demands better cameras. But for Disneyland, the thought of walking around the park carrying a big camera is not appealing... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dole Whip Pineapple is perfect next to the Tiki Room as far as theming goes. The WDW version also is available with pineapple upside down cake that Disneyland does not have. We were on the "free" meal plan back in 2018 at WDW so I had no problem getting the higher priced dessert with cake (free is in quote as Disney jacks up the price for the rest of the package that you must purchase in order to get free meal plan) No one is surprised I take pictures of menu, right? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very Festive. 2 hours ago, Bailey & Sophie said: What a nice looking family! Thanks. My in laws went with us to WDW in December 2018. The first picture in the post was right after we landed in Orlando on a red eye. We flew out of San Francisco around 11 PM and landed in Florida at 7 AM local time or 4 AM our time. After the Disney bus dropped us off at Disney's Coronado Springs to store our luggage, obviously our room wasn't ready at 8 AM. So we grabbed some breakfast at the food court and then headed off to Hollywood Studios to see the new land back in 2018. That picture was right after we entered the park after 9 AM EST/6 AM PST. We felt like something the cat dragged in with less than 5 hours of sleep from the red eye but on other hand, running on adrenaline of being on vacation and seeing new area. So we were smiling in the picture but under a weird mix of tired but excited feeling. After lunch and we got the text from Disney that the room was ready, we headed back and took a 2 hour nap before waking up and headed to EPCOT for dinner & watched fireworks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, Jim, How are things? Nice to talk to you again. I see you are still the night owl in being up at 11 PM my time in CA but 2 AM in South Carolina. Looks like you are enjoying the retirement time with lots of cruises planned. I would love to come out to Florida for another cruise on the mega ship but right now traveling across the country and especially Caribbean cruise in August doesn't sound very appealing.

I tried to respond to an earlier post @FromSea2ShiningSea to suggest reporting it, but was notified that my response had to be reviewed???? All I said was: " I have heard of another person having that issue. You might want to report it to the M********* as an FYI for them. I think they have hired the IT people from RCCL. 😂" I think the "M" word triggered it, ?????? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With some luck, it will be past us before we head to an outdoor concert tonight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
