Mirror Mirror
Okay, not really planned out for this blog post, but I have to say that we had an awesome time going to see Mirror Mirror today. I'm really glad we waited for the event today rather than going last night like I originally wanted to do.
Let me outline this insanity:
1) The theatre on post hired Snow White to come to the lobby and take photos with everyone. They also had a really cut photo opp location of a giant, wooden mirror (not sure if that was sent out by Relativity Media, or if the theatre had it constructed special). And the little dwarf helper was passing out goody bags, so the kids started off very happy.
2) Before the showing (and we were at the first showing of the day), the theatre crew came in and did a raffle on the ticket numbers. All four of our tickets ended up being drawn thanks to there being a huge amount of prizes. So, we got a Mirror Mirror "One Bad Apple" T-shirt, snow globe, compact mirror that lights up, and a Disney Store figurine set of Snow White characters.
3) When we left, not only had the lobby put up a bouncy castle, BUT, they also handed out cute little mini posters.
I'm not sure who all arranged this event - whether it was a movie promotion from the studio, the theatre manager, or a combination of the two - but I definitely feel like we got our money out of this price of admission today.
And just a btw, the movie was fabulous, the costumes were amazing, and the plot was something completely new and unexpected. Usually the previews ruin the entire film and tell you everything, but I was pleasantly surprised all around.

TROOOOOOOOOON - Geek Girl Post
You know, TROOOOOOOOOOOOON, like "KAAAAHHHHHHHNNNN" from Star Trek. I feel just as frustrated when watching, and not understanding, Tron: Legacy.
Maybe it's just be and one of those things that I don't comprehend (like how evolution is different from adaptation...) - but, perhaps a more formidable geek can enlighten me and ease my Tron woes.

My Long Overdue Post on Disneyland
Back in June I had the opportunity to go to Disneyland with my husband and kids, and it was one of the best experiences of my life. I am an animation nut, so I have always been in love with Disney's work, and I was really amazed with all of theJune I had the opportunity to go to Disneyland with my husband and kids, and it was one of the best experiences of my life. I am an animation nut, so I have always been in love with Disney's work, and I was really amazed with all of the activities the park had to offer. I've been joking with everyone that the staff there was so nice and overly friendly that I can't be happy anywhere else that I go.
The only complaint I have are the crowds. From 11am - 9pm the parks are very packed, and it gets to be a pain to get in line for anything. Keep in mind though, this was June, I'm sure in the off season it's much easier to go through the lines.
Here is a little photo journey through the parks ~ my camera died as soon as we got there, so most of these are kind of blurry from my camera phone.
These cookies were amazing and only $3.50, which is pretty good for Disney prices!
I love that they have Rapunzel's tower complete with hair wrapping around the park!
ASIMO was a cool little robot - I can't wait to have a robotic helper in my home, lol!
Minnie Mouse was the ONLY character that my daughter cared about seeing, but her reaction is priceless!
Jim Henson was such an amazing creative mind, I have been looking forward to seeing this show for decades! :)
Woody in the It's a Small World ride.
You know your husband rocks if he'll wear your hearts and fruit styled 31 bag around! haha. And I love the Tron stuff they had (you can see it in the background).
Beautiful new restaurant in California Adventure. Too bad they couldn't seat us, I was really hoping for some sit down dining.
I couldn't believe how big this ferris wheel was - and some of the carts swung while it moved! We got on it, but I was so terrified the entire time that I had tears coming out.
Radiator Springs section coming in June 2012!
For the record, and as per usual, I am NOT being paid, endorsed, or otherwise compensated by the Disney people. Maybe someday when I finished my animation degree, but not at this time. activities the park had to offer. I've been joking with everyone that the staff there was so nice and overly friendly that I can't be happy anywhere else that I go.
BUT, I will say that the staff was extremely amazing. We bought tickets on Orbitz for $188 per person, but then when we went to the desk to turn our computer print out into tickets, the manager walked by and said there was a military discount going on. So, we got a gift card for $300+ dollars back as a refund for not getting the discount on Orbitz! I don't know many other places that would go out of their way to do something like that, and it covered all of our expenses in the park, and made it so that we could afford some souvenirs. We will definitely be back, hopefully next year after the Cars park opens! <3
