Just got all caught up. Great start and GREAT arrival day! You got to do so much! What a way to start off a trip, with a viewing of Celebrate the Magic and Wishes.
Too bad you weren't able to get the shoes you wanted. The expo seemed to offer a lot of cute photo ops though! Love that one with Princess Minnie, she is absolutely adorable.
Thank you! It was definitely one of my top Disney arrival days of all time, I loved it!
Hopefully next year I'll finally be able to snag a pair! And I loved all the photo ops! I wish Princess Minnie was out all all the time, she's cute in Storybrook Circus but a Princess Minnie in Fantasyland would be awesome!
Haha, you should have seen that Ariel when she had soft serve ice cream hair out west.
Oh that picture of Tramp makes me miss December so much!!! I saw him every day, *sniff*
God, all that purple and still no purple Magic Bands. What is up with that?
Yeah, I'm thinking my corral would be "AAA" which is not even on the board.
Aww NOOOO, no shoes!!! I've seen some of the photos of them, and I would absolutely buy a pair.
Hmm soft serve ice cream hair sounds even worse haha.
I know I want to go back SO bad!
I know right?! They need to come out with purple soon I have almost every other color
Ugh I know I was so bummed, hopefully next year!
Bummer about the running shoes. I don't know why they just dont make enough to meet demand?
I don't know either, they were super popular Marathon weekend so I don't know why they didn't amp up production! Or let people pre-order so they would know exactly how many to make!
I love the LM queue almost as much as I love the ride. The waterfall, castle, Scuttle, etc are all so detailed! Definitely entertaining to walk through!
I guess we can't say we're total trip twins... after all, you bought your Alex and Ani on Main Street and mine came from WoD, hahaha!!
Love that Baloo pin- what a good trade!
All your expo pictures make it look so fun (and crowded!) Haha, I love that picture runDisney sent to you!
I can't wear the runDisney shoes myself, but considering how popular they are I was glad to hear they tried to fix the system. I'm bummed that the 'fix' still didn't work for you and you couldn't get a pair!
I agree! Maybe even more haha. It's so beautiful, especially at night!
Haha you are right, that right there makes our trip SO different.
Me too! I actually got it from the guy who rang me up for my bracelet!
Definitely crowded but a lot of fun!
I was so bummed, even though I don't think I would have been able to run in them, I just wanted them to wear around the parks.
I agree with you about the animatronics in Ariel's ride (full name is too long to type) - both about how great the Ursula one is and also how that one Ariel one is a little creepy (I think it is because her tail doesn't move so it seems like she is like stuck in a shell or something)
Your Mickey head snack looks really good! Speaking of Mickey heads - I like the Mickey head pin you traded for!
Bummer about the people next to you - like you said, at least it was only for one night
"so you have to sign up via virtual queue just to get a chance to purchase them" ... that sounds like way too much work for the honor of giving someone money
Not sure if this is a silly question or not, but I see on your bip that it says "Repunzel" ... were there different princesses on different bips or for different races you could run?
that's crazy about most of the shoes being gone ... and definitely would have been nice of them to tell you earlier that they were out of most sizes
Is their a corral that is the equivalent to the 19th hole in golf (i.e., the bar)?
Agreed the animatronics are great even the creepy ones haha. And I think you're right, it's totally the non tail movement that makes her weird.
Those rice krispee treats are my weakness! And thanks I was pumped to find that one!
Yes thank goodness, they were so loud haha.
I know it was a bit ridiculous and then they didn't even have what we wanted. But if that was the biggest issue we had all weekend I guess we can't really complain.
You got to pick out the princess you wanted on your bib when you registered. You could pretty much pick anyone but Anna, Elsa, Mulan and Pocohantas. I really liked that it gave the bibs that extra personalized touch!
Maybe I should make that suggestion for next year They could just call it the beer lovers corral.
Mmm that treat looks delicious!!
The expo looks HUGE!
Cute pic of you and Prince Charming
Princess Minnie is adorable! So cool that you got a pic with her and Snow White!
Oh no, how annoying that they sold out of shoes before you got there
Good idea bringing that duffle bag with you!
It was so good, those rice krispee treats are so delicious!
It was a little overwhelming but I loved it!
Haha thanks, the ladies taking the pictures got quite a kick out of it.
I loved Princess Minnie, I wish she was out all the time!
So annoying! I wanted a pair so bad but hopefully next year I'll have better luck!
Life saver bringing that extra bag, it's always refreshing to have an idea turn out perfect haha.
