Hello everyone!! I know I'm not well known in this group... But... I'd like to celebrate my 30th birthday with you guys!! Let's do a "Mad hatter" shing-dig? Who's down?! ;)
Hello everybody! I've been with MW since 1.0 version.. Anyone else? I have to put aside MW for 6 months... So many changes and growth!! So excited to see what's in store.. How long have you've been a MWer?

Hi! 👋👋 How have things been? - LBChica 1501.6 #52 8-15-12 3:00PM
We are on the on ramp to DL. Its pretty busy out here.. Just wondering how busy it's in DL right now. I see that the times aren't that bad but I'd like to hear from someone inside. :) thanks!!
Since I loaded the most recent update, it seems to show up every once and a while on my iPhone. Weird... - proudcanuck476.4 #251 8-24-11 11:24AMLike Reply
I had that happen too. I turned my phone off and it went away. Sometimes simply turning your phone off and starting again is just the trick. :)

My new edition to my Pandora bracelet. Bought this charm on Main Street. It's actually a Camilla charm but it fits!! Only $40.. Discount for AP holders!!
Pandora bracelets are soooo expensive! $40 seems like nothing compared to their actual charms! I made a bracelet for my bff for her bday and 3 charms and the bracelet cost me over $300!!! I nearly died! - bellapistola156.2 #2211 6-22-11 12:17PMLike Reply

I've been hearing different rumors some saying some areas are. While others are saying there is no haunts out there. However I do remember seeing a thing Many years ago from Disney website about the HM how there were sometimes shadows are moving when the lights are on and the animatronics are not moving - CM_SmS1291443.5 #279 6-5-11 3:08AMLike Reply

I noticed 2 days ago at PPH in our room that I saw a reflection run across the TV (it was off). So my guess is either rat, bird outside that o didn't see, or rat ghost. - ToshiStation53.5 #3688 6-5-11 7:24AMLike Reply

My brother always took a picture of the closest post and uploaded it to Flickr. It's funny looking at his account. For me, as long as I remember the floor, I can easily find our car. - ZombieJerky372.1 #371 6-4-11 2:42AMLike Reply
Oh geez, I did that once. I was on the phone when I parked and didn't get off til I was in the parks... When I returned to find my car I realize I had paid absolutely no attention to where I had parked! It was terrible! Fortunately I guessed correctly the first time when I picked an escalator and wandered around for a bit. But geez, that was a scary realization! The place is so big! - outatime23.0 #4822 6-4-11 9:38AMLike Reply
Question: is it true that CM can't ride with guests? i.e. We were going to ride ST with some CMs we met at the end of the line.. Another CM working the ST said we couldn't ride with them. Why?
Not sure if that is true, unless it is new. For the first MW reunion, we had a CM get on ToT with us, we were chanting her name to get on and she did. - ZombieJerky372.1 #371 6-4-11 1:58AMLike Reply
Probably because when CM are on stage they play roles and riding with guests would break their character. - JessicaRabbit33667.9 #156 6-4-11 2:00AMLike Reply
Currently 1:30am. The last group to ride Star Tours of opening day.. Or should I say.. The first on Saturday to ride it the second day.. I've never seen Disneyland this empty!! What a treat!
I waited in that line earlier! It was loooooooooooooooooooooong. two hours! All just to say I rode it on opening day, lol. - candymation286.1 #693 6-4-11 12:26AMLike Reply

My sisters and I noticed that skulls are a very common prop in Disneyland.. What do you think?
Ive noticed that to. It's common to see them now because that is the symbol for Pirates and jack skellington. There might be more then what I'm seeing - CM_SmS1291443.5 #279 5-24-11 11:38PMLike Reply
Agreed! I think as humans we have a natural fascination with death, so skulls are effective attention-grabbers. Either that, or Walt let Sam the Head Trader run the decoration department for a while! ;) - ladylikesdisney921.5 #95 5-24-11 11:41PMLike Reply

I think Disney should have it open til midnight when DL is open til midnight! It never made sense for it to close so early that dl packed right as the fireworks started? - BirthdayGoof175.1 #1927 6-18-10 6:30PMLike Reply
I think the early closures have to do with Anaheim's noise curfew. Same reason why Maliboomer has "scream shields". - John312.0 #550 6-18-10 7:00PMLike Reply
Hmmm.. It is me or are the new trams weird?! Yes safety but I'm having a hard time coordinating: turn the knob down or up, push out or in and lower your head and watch your step. Gees!!
I've seen several people pull down on the handle, think that it's locked and start to walk away! - YTheRum2072.7 #33 5-17-10 2:12PMLike Reply
It's extremely cubersome navigating the doors, especially if you have packages or other accoutrements. I saw a very large mom throw her daughter in the tram, but I was seriously afraid she wouldn't manage to squeeze in before the tram took off. She made it, but was more laying across the bench than sitting in it. - PrinceCorey4242.2 #6 5-17-10 2:13PMLike Reply

You need at least a 3 day park hopper pass to get a magic morning. Or as Tinkaboutit said show your AP with a Disney hotel room key. But it is not a requirement to stay at a Disney hotel to get a magic morning - BlueberryCrusader650.7 #161 2-25-10 8:45AMLike Reply

I believe this is still correct and I'm sure LaceySue will know. If you have your reception at a Disney hotel they require you to use one of their recommended entertainment providers. It's a pretty big deal to be a Disney approved DJ or Band. The audition process isn't very easy. - BlueberryCrusader650.7 #161 2-24-10 11:43PMLike Reply
You aren't required at all! But I personally found it cheaper to use them, and our guy was top notch! - LaceySue328.8 #481 2-24-10 11:56PMLike Reply

I've heard that DL has their own fire station and police stations? Does anyone know if DL hire nurses for their own first aid stations?
They do. They have full time RN positions and part time RN positions. They do not hire Per Diem RNs. I asked. The part time position is for at least 16 Hours a week. I was looking hooding I could work 1-2weekend a month there, but no such luck. - Out numbered mom-0.2 #122135 2-19-10 9:29PMLike Reply

Hi Admin! Does MW already have a FAQ section? If not... Can we have a FAQ section.. i.e. How may I change my MW name and keep my points?..or how do you find animation characters (emoji)?.. Where can I get a button.. Etc, etc,etc.
Great idea and include a lot of the abrievations (IMO etc) for those of us who have been Waiting longer than others. - CantWait1033.2 #84 2-19-10 8:02AMLike Reply

Just curious.. When posting a real time wait for rides.. do you use what is posted in front of the line or do you time it by yourself? (hope that made sense!)
When the wait is long the posted times seem to be pretty accurate. When the wait is shorter I try to time the actual wait time - Dpfun5.4 #9918 2-11-10 11:09PMLike Reply

What is Magic Morning? Sounds like fun and possibly expensive.
Magic morning is also available if you stay at the Disney resort and fantasyland and tommorowland is open an hour early and lines are usually short , most rides are walk on and many characters are out and about. - Brenda31.2 #4326 2-7-10 11:58AMLike Reply
