Chapter 38 Toy Story-Induced Carpal Tunnel (Originally posted September 1, 2012) Considering the rest of the Backlot Tour is a little less exciting than I’m sure it was when the Studios was a real, working studio, Catastrophe Canyon is still always very cool. I’m always certain that we’re going to get at least a little …

Chapter 170 Jingle (Cruise) All the Way Previous Post | Next Post Table of Contents King Arthur Carrousel had just reopened after a pretty lengthy refurbishment, so we decided to ride.

Chapter 15 It’s Mary That We Love After hopping to Disneyland, we saw that the Horse-Drawn Streetcar was just leaving its spot, so we decided to climb aboard the Omnibus instead.

Chapter 33 Lazing Previous Post | Next Post Table of Contents Our lunch on board the Wonder was pretty forgettable. I think we just went to Beach Blanket Buffet, and this may have been the meal when they were offering Mexican fare, but I can’t remember for sure. What I do know is that our day …

Chapter 37 A Galaxy Far, Far Away (Originally posted August 28, 2012) Our first Star Tours vehicle took us… nowhere. Literally. We had just gotten into the vehicle and they had checked everyone’s seatbelts. The doors were closed and we should have been preparing for takeoff. But nothing happened. After about a minute the cast …

Chapter 35 More Ketchup, Please (Originally posted August 26, 2012) As our boat plied the waterways toward Wilderness Lodge, we got to see some parts of the resort from unique angles.

DLR Life Report Update (11/18/14) | We Moved to Disneyland!! Now What…?
Chapter 169 Do You Believe? It’s hard to describe just how truly magical the Believe fireworks show was. We had sort of gotten to enjoy the show from the pool deck of Paradise Pier in January, but I think it really needs to be seen from in front of the castle to be fully appreciated. It’s not …
