[quote="Iago"]y'know I was looking around and and unless I missed somthing we really don't have a permanent disney theme park thread here so I think its about high time we had one. 'Specially those that have been before and those that are disney regulars that have nothing better to do with their time 'cept hang around disneyland :lol: yeah you know who you are...;)
Anywhoo, if you've had a Disney theme park experience you'd like to share or just wanna talk about theme park news/rumors/trip planning/etc. then post it here.

To get it started I'll post an experience which was from this weekand

[quote]I went to Disneyland 2 weeks in a row. Yeah 20 bucks says that'll never be happening again, lol. Only reason I went was because our Symphonic Orchestra was playing. Well worth it. So time for a recap of Sat. trip.
. Wasn't too crowded in the morning but by mid afternoon it was packed. Got there around 9ish and get this. I was literally ALONE! Yes! Freedom! Mom dropped me off and I headed into the park, not quite sure what to do before I had to head over to the Carnations Garden Plaza where the orchestra was playing I wandered for a little bit and checked the wait times on the little board they have set up. I had about 45 min and Indy was about 25-30 for the wait. I debated for a few min on what to do before saying alright and headed over there. Whoever said 30 min was lying it was only 15 minutes give or take. Smooth ride and everything seemed to be working. Rat projection was meh but everything else looked good. 
. Made my way back to the Garden Plaza and it was kinda empty still except for Clemets and Wicks walking around and getting everyone set up. About 10:35ish they began playing. They Rocked! All the songs were great. They played music from the parent trap (lindsay lohan one), Toy Story 2, Magnificant 7, and the big attention grabber and fanale Pirates of The Carribean. Good lord I swear it was like hearing it directly from the movie. I'll be making an audio of it tommrow and I'll put it up in my next post so be expecting that 'cause its somthing you just have to hear. 
. Left after that since I knew kirs would be a while in leaving so since I wasn't sure if kirawould want to go on splash i made my way over there and did single rider for it. Pant leg totally soaked but so fun :P. 
. Met up with kira about 30 min after splash. I didn't know where she was still so I watched the mickey climbing the Matterhorn thing which was really cute and funny.  Goofy cracked me up and poor minnie couldnt seem to rhyme correctly when she was trying to cheer mickey to the top, lol. Kira found me there in the middle of it so we watched that then decided to see what else to do. Typical of her she was hungry so we quickly got our fast passes for Space Mountain (7:50-8:50, just goes to show how crowded it was) and ate. We decided to go around and see if there would be any short rides...sadly no so we grabbed fast passes for indy.
. To put the day in a nutshell would be two words: Splash Mountain. Seeing as we were there just last week with kirsten and danny we really didnt see the need to wait in all the long ass lines so we kept hopping on splash single rider. Miraculously we were always seated in the back so we never got too wet. Then we took a break and went on big thunder. We never had it in us to survive the cold and go on Matterhorn. 
 . I forgot just how bad the jungle cruises jokes were. We got on that since the line was never very long and those jokes are just so corney you have to laugh at them. We had a hot guide and I seriously contemplated going on again to try and get the same guy but we decided against it :P I knew I shoulda got a picture. Ah well, our time for indy finally arrived after we ate dinner so we got on that finally. Sooth ride but very whiplashy. We had about 45 min to kill before we could get on space so we watched Parade of Dreams...or more rather I watched Parade of Dreams, lol. We got on Star Tours after then finally the time came for space so of course we brought our [url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v655/Iago_22/Disneyland%20Pics/HPIM0319.jpg]reading material[/url]  (blurry I know, but my camera hates me). God I love space mountain. 
. Grabbed our seats for Remember. Right smack dab in the middle of the castle so watching it was awsome. Few rain drops which had everyone worried but it never acctually rained thank goodness. We both got hot chocholate 'cause thats how cold it was last night. Last firework shot off and like last time we got out of there ASAP. Kinda hard to this time though since there were  a lot more people but we still grabbed awsome seats right in the middle of the island. Couldn't even see the water screens on either sides of you, just the one in front of you. I haven't seen it like thay in a loooong time. No fantasmic video though :( my cameras batteries dies right after remember. Next time!
. Headed out after that after making sure kira got back to the meeting place in one peice. Long walk through downtown disney and I wanted through the big disney store for a little bit. Found [url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v655/Iago_22/Disneyland%20Pics/disneyland%2021806/HPIM0346.jpg]this[/url] in the store as one of the statues they have. Shiera I know you'll like it ;)

Right after mom picked me up it started POURING buckets in Anaheim. Perfect timing. Pics are [url=http://photobucket.com/albums/v655/Iago_22/Disneyland%20Pics/disneyland%2021806]here.[/url] I tried my hand at the fireworks photos but my camera disn't like taking pics outside in the dark apparently. Ah well.

Till Next time....

ETA: we didn't find chuck Kirsten :(, though I thought I saw him working one of the coffe stands I figured it would have been to good to be true[/quote][/quote]
