Most Magical First Anniversary Pre-Trip Report

[poeticeclipse]

While it's 3:50 a.m. Chicago time and I got ZERO hours of sleep. Only minutes. Due to My FIL and MIL snoring ALL NIGHT. Very loudly.

I actually feel quite sick right now. We ate pizza right before falling asleep so maybe that had something to do with it.

I am HAPPY. SO HAPPY. To say that I got the following e-mail this morning.

We would like for you to join us on Wednesday April 30th, for a stock footage volunteer taping of Disney's newest attraction Toy Story Mania! After reading through the following information please e-mail ****************** to confirm your attendance.

We will be shooting various beauty shots ranging from ride interiors, exteriors, guest reactions while on ride, ride elements, basically the whole ride experience ;-)


At least one parent must be present per family if children in attendance are under the age of 18.

Attire:

Normal everyday park attire (ie. Shorts/jeans, t-shirts etc.)

Please no tight patterns, stripes, solid white or very light shirts as they are hard to see on TV

NO logos or advertising on clothing (No Nike Swoosh, Adidas logo, Abercrombie, etc.)

Disney branded clothing is ok





HOW COOL!??!?! I don't even care that I feel terrible right now. I am so excited to be able to tell all of you about the shoot. It's going to last about 3 hours. We're in the AM session starting at 9. Hooray!!

That sounds like such a cool experience, Stacey! I wish you and DH the best time on your anniversary trip! I just love reading your reports!

Wow!! Stacey that sounds so very cool and I am now dying to read your trip reports!! Oh, I am dying to get back to DW myself and all I need to do is convince my wife!! She loves Disney as well, but she is much more the realist with our financial situation. After being through what I have been through in the last 2 years, I say make the most of every day, even if it means a little more debt. She, on the other hand, is much more the type to want to get all of the debt paid off. At that rate, we will NEVER make it back. So, I just have to work some Disney magic on her!! Keep the !!

I am just a bit late in reading your "pre-trip" report.....so late that you only have a couple of days left before you have to return home! Here's hoping that your trip is going great, how can it not? You are in Disney! Looking forward to your reports.

Hope your trip was great. I can't wait to hear all about it.

Can't wait to read all about your trip! Off to read about your honeymoon since I wasnt around back then to read it the first time!

Hey, great pics from the honeymoon and can't wait to hear about your (now over ) trip! Question: what kind of sandals are you wearing in all the honeymoon pics, and we're they comfy every day? Thanks!

They are Crocs! Athens! Love them!!!! I wore them a lot for this trip as well.

So, since i'm posting... I'M BACK! I'm actually in Detroit right now at a friends apartment. I'm looking forward to sharing everything with all of you. We had a great trip. So great that I cried on the plane ride home. DH and I have decided that our next trip will to Disneyland for a few days and then to Disney World for about 5 days. We really want to see and experience where it all started.

I'll post my first day tomorrow. I have them all written up except for our last day which I had to type up tomorrow. I need to put pictures on the computer still... I'll probably do that tonight. Not much video honestly... I think we have very very little video because we tried to keep things compact. And, in all of our honeymoon pictures we had the camera bag! Ugh. No good.

Well, i'm off to get some stuff done. My husband fell asleep on the floor. I should probably wake him up.
