A look at Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party at the Magic Kingdom

9/25/2014

 
Picture
Renée headed out to Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party this week and sent us some great pictures. 

This truly is one of the best special events at Walt Disney World and is home to the single greatest parade other than the Main Street Electrical Parade. It's just a fun night of rides, candy, characters, food ... did we mention the Candy? 


The park is all decked out for Halloween

It really is a pretty awesome fireworks show

HalloweenTime and Oswald come to the Disneyland Resort

9/15/2014

 
Picture
Our good friend Nico sent us some more pictures over the weekend, this time from the Disneyland Resort. The annual HalloweenTime event kicked off over the weekend with old favorites like Haunted Mansion Holiday and Space Mountain Ghost Galaxy. 

Over at Disney California Adventure, Oswald the Lucky Rabbit finally has a character and he looks pretty awesome. 

HalloweenTime

Even though temperatures were up in the 90's and 100's in Southern California over the weekend the Disneyland Resort is decked out in Fall colors. 
Picture
Picture
And no surprise, the Annual Passholder crowds descended on Disneyland to see it
Picture
Picture
The Dapper Dan's decked out in their Halloween Duds
Picture
Picture
The Dan's always put on a great show, be sure to check them out next time you are at the park
Picture
Jack and Sally have once again taken over the Haunted Mansion 
Picture
I really do love Haunted Mansion Holiday but I can't help but think that the original version of the Haunted Mansion would be better for Halloween and HMH begin in November. 
Picture
How do you make one of the most popular rides in the park even more popular? With ghosts of course.

Oswald The Lucky Rabbit

Over in DCA, Oswald finally has a character
Picture
Picture
I'm not generally a person who goes crazy for characters, but Oswald is pretty awesome
Picture
Picture
Picture
Get your picture with Oswald ... disinterested teenager in the background is optional. 
Picture
That's going to wrap it up for this Disneyland update. We'll be back at the park on Friday so we'll have a larger update sometime early next week.

Renée runs the Disneyland 1/2 Marathon

9/8/2014

 
Picture
Renée was back at the Disneyland Half Marathon this year for her 9th consecutive year keeping her legacy status intact. This is no small task. So before we get on to her report we want to say Congrats!! 

And thanks for the following pictures from the weekend. We appreciate it. 

Before the race, packet pick-up is at the Disneyland hotel. A pretty popular photo spot. 
Picture
The well earned "Legacy runner" is displayed on the bib
Picture
Race morning, wouldn't it be nice to just start here. =) (but what fun would that be)
Picture
Thousands of runners prepare to start running 13.1 miles through Disneyland, Disney California Adventure and the streets of Anaheim.
Picture
Pre race festivities!! 
Picture
Back stage at Disney California Adventure
Picture
It's a Wonder World of Running through DCA!!! 
Picture
Running through Radiator Springs. Hope you don't get a flat. =)
Picture
I'm pretty sure Renée got the same picture when we ran the Disneyland Half together in 2012. (Gregg)
Picture
And just like magic, we are now inside Disneyland 
Picture
Picture
This is seriously the coolest picture ever. Totally worth the price of running Disney. (Gregg)
Picture
Running through the Castle is always a highlight
Picture
Only at Disney will you see long lines to meet characters in the middle of a race
Picture
Hanging out with Angelina Jolie
Picture
Moving backstage at Disneyland, it's always nice to see the horses out. 
Picture
Sorry for ruining the magic for those who haven't seen backstage at Disneyland before. =)
Picture
After leaving Disneyland it's time to run on the "lovely" streets of Anaheim. You never know what characters you'll encounter out there. 
Picture
A recent addition over the last few years in what was once a pretty boring stretch of the race. Awesome to see all the cars. 
Picture
Picture
Even a Lightning McQueen Corvette. Ignore that "other" Hockey Team's truck in the background. =)
Picture
This view alone is worth $195
Picture
Heading into Angel Stadium of Anaheim. Why isn't it called Los Angeles Angel Stadium of Anaheim? 
Picture
Picture
Picture
It really is a beautiful stadium
Picture
Picture
Aren't you a little short to be a Stormtrooper? 
Picture
Heading backstage at DCA. Pretty sure this crossing is the cause of 99% of Anaheim traffic on race morning. 
Picture
After the race a well deserved refreshment at Disney California Adventure. Wear your medal proudly!!! 
Picture
Congrats again Renée. Truly a great accomplishment. And thanks again for sharing them with us!!
