I scoured the three pages of olympic related posts, but could not find anything about an Olympic celebration for 2012 returning teams. I missed the send off for the volleyball team. Is there anywhere that they posts these events? Maybe someone has inside knowledge?

From everything I have read about some of the athletes they are slowly making their rounds on the East Coast media circuit right now. I'd give them a couple more days before they announce anything for the West Coast. - KermitFan13 407.5 #321 7:06PM

Thanks I guess they are hitting WDW first - marineed07 32.3 #4265 9:15PM

Taking a poll... Bday is on Halloween... I got my girlfriend premium annual pass and for my bday she said either Halloween party or 2 nights in Disney grand California hotel or my choice of Disney hotels. What would you pick?

Hotel. Then you buy the party tickets. 😉 - bluefairy 627.1 #174 5:05PM

I was thinking that... But part of the stipulation of te hotel stay is I must surrender my wallet and money so I don't spend anything during the visit lol - marineed07 32.3 #4265 5:06PM

Buy your tickets now and keep it a secret until the day of. - mermaidhair 176.3 #1909 5:12PM

Surrender? Thought Marines didn't do that. - HandMeAChurroImmaFaint 1798.4 #42 5:23PM

HMACIF lol I'm her POW - marineed07 32.3 #4265 7:25PM

Take the hotel and ask for party tickets as a gift from someone else ; ) - mhpoker 260.3 #907 7:26PM

"her POW" that was adorable! - Duchess_SMK 3276.6 #11 8:28PM

Lol I'm more simple than her..... I think it's her who secretly wants to stay at grand but this is her way of saying its for me lol - marineed07 32.3 #4265 9:06PM

stay at the hotel.. its worth it. you'll have a wonderful time. and i agree with everyone else. buy the tickets before hand and do both :) - LolatheSlush 201.3 #1605 9:29AM

I'd go with the Halloween party and stay at a cheaper hotel. You could stay at paradise pier and the difference between that and the grand would cover your party tickets. 😃 - aidensmama 336.5 #445 5:09PM

I'm kind of digging this idea... Does PP also allow for early entry? I used up or magic morning entries already hahahahaha - marineed07 32.3 #4265 7:21PM

I think they do but I'm not certain. - aidensmama 336.5 #445 7:23PM

Yes, they do! I know first hand, we have stayed there twice this past year. :) - DaisyDork 170.0 #2007 7:25PM

Hotel guests get early entry at least through the summer, either park either day for each day of your stay. You might want to call and check for the fall. - minigirl1156 411.7 #315 7:26PM

We stayed in November and January and they did it then - but it never hurts to call and be 100% sure, things are always changing :) - DaisyDork 170.0 #2007 7:43PM

New toys for Disneyland! Can't wait to head up and use them!

Oooooo. What kind of cameras. Two of my friends are in the market for a good camera. How do you like them? - TikiJOSEsWingman 329.5 #476 4:41PM

Both Nikon.. Left one is a D5000 which I got an extended battery grip (was running outta juice during parades and it sucks to change batts during action). I just got The D90 in the mail today (one on the right) and I'm looking forward to doing more low light images with it! - marineed07 32.3 #4265 4:45PM

I love the D5000 all my pics were taken with it. It's an entry level DSLR and is easy to use. I just don't use the kit lens it came with. I always had my 18-200 lens on it and my 50mm and 85mm in the bag... Occasionally I'll throw the 35-80 lens on it since it is more sensitive than my 18-200 in dark rides. The D90 has yet to make it to Disneyland (this weekend possibly or in 3 weeks) - marineed07 32.3 #4265 4:58PM

Dinner as per reviews of fellow MWs... Lobster nachos (I had to get the sliders) and great view of the wheel of color

Mmmmm. Looks delish! I so need to try those nachos next time! Enjoy! - iloveprinceEric 219.5 #1362 8:11PM

They were good! Just watch the peppers if you don't like heat.. They pack a little heat! - marineed07 32.3 #4265 8:43PM

Wouldn't it be nice if they put some Disney photographers over by Mickey and friends parking and in downtown Disney? Even possibly a tram seat cutout or non functioning tram tug (the part the driver sits in) so people could pose. I bet they could make a lot of profit off of that.

That's an interesting idea. I'm a Photopass photographer at DLR. I'll pass it on :) - TIdoubleGuhErCM 54.3 #3668 9:33AM

Neat! Love to hear that you'll share an idea!! - Duchess_SMK 3276.6 #11 11:20AM

I have thought about photographers in DTD but in parking areas? Sorry I don't see it. And as a guest, I think it might annoy me. - MyPark 944.1 #91 9:39AM

Well it's all Disney and people who have never been of course want photos everywhere they go as soon as they get out of their car. How many people have you seen taking picks in front of the escalators at the parking structure? I see A lot every time. - marineed07 32.3 #4265 11:15AM

And not in the stall areas just the Tram area - marineed07 32.3 #4265 11:20AM

Profit? I thought disney was all about fun. Lol jk - pikarich 610.7 #178 8:49AM

Lol it would be pretty cool I they had one of the old school trams out there too in the corner that they do the round about. Like by that sign that shows arrows to DTD and DLR thats randomly back where no one really goes lol - marineed07 32.3 #4265 11:17AM

Today was pretty awesome! Usually I go to the parks for the rides... Today was the first time I've seen a parade since the main street electrical parade... Today I saw the sunsational parade and Pixar parade... I may have to go back for more parades! Lots of cute princesses! Pixar parade scared me with a direct hit of water to my DSLR But it made it out alive!

Soundsational parade is a great parade but I am ready for something new. - Chumash28 764.0 #130 3:21AM

Will they change it when summer is over? - marineed07 32.3 #4265 8:00AM

No immediate plans to change Soundsational. Remember how long "Celebrate! A Street Party" was at DL? Soundsational is most likely going to be around for a while. Now, MSEP, that will be returning to DL somewhat soon. - dlmickeymouseCM 2350.4 #27 8:56AM

Don't forget the shows as well. You can grab a show schedule at the main gate of either park, or view them online. Aladdin show at DCA is a must see. - ScooterMike 1959.8 #35 7:18AM

Yah we've seen Aladdin and I have some awesome photos from there. I've been using Disneyland to hone my photography skills lol - marineed07 32.3 #4265 7:59AM

hopefully you caught the newboys show its very catcht :-) - pikarich 610.7 #178 7:59AM

Oh I haven't seen that one yet. My GF is getting into musicals now. We're actually going to see a new Leah salonga (singing voice for aladdin, Mulan 1 and 2) musical that premiers this month. - marineed07 32.3 #4265 8:18AM

The parades are awesome, and Fantasmic is still my favorite show! - seashelly 107.0 #2950 9:02AM
