It's true Adam and I failed on our quest last year to do every attraction at Disneyland. Actually we failed hard, we came into some problems (mainly me never really wanting to carry Yoda on my back all of the time, though Adam never offered to carry him) but this year we will attempt to do it again, and succeed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last Night was our first trip together since Adam's birthday, as well as the first time we had seen each other since then. We hit up our normal spots at the parks (sadly TSMM had broken down when we went over) as well as some things we never tend to do, such as Muppets 3D and the Golden Horseshoe performance. I'm not sure how many of you have ever been into the Golden Horseshoe (I myself didn't discover it until early last year) but there was a band who played shows in there known as Billy Hill and The Hillbillies, which I found to be a great combination of music and comedy. Unfortunately the Billies are no longer the residents in the Horseshoe and now a new Frontierland show has taken stage. I was weary at first but boy was I wrong, the show had me laughing harder than I had in the longest time, I assure everyone that their time will be well spent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As we were exiting Fantasyland at the end of the night Adam and I spotted the line for Peter Pan, which to our surprise looked to be about a 10 minute wait, which we had never seen before. After some thinking it over we hopped in line for the ride. We spent a total time of 14 minutes waiting in line and riding the ride, a length most people wait twice as long just to get onto the ride. Great.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Adam will have the pictures posted shortly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SYvHZ74tJPI/AAAAAAAAAWg/CthpDf49FaE/s1600-h/DSCN0247.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

On November 15th, myself (Adam) and five of my closest friends spent the smokey Orange County day at Disneyland to celebrate my 23rd birthday. That morning, fires flared up in Yorba Linda and Anaheim Hills, casting an orange glow and smokey skies over Disneyland for nearly the entire day. For a Saturday, the park seemed more empty than normal, probably due to smart people wanting to stay out of the smoke. Too bad we aren't smart enough for that, or maybe, just maybe, we love Disneyland too much for a little smoke to stop us! We spent the early part of the day at California Adventure, before heading to Disneyland, then ESPNzone for dinner, and back to Disneyland to close out the celebration. Of course, we have pictures to document parts of the day. What would this update be without pictures???&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Truthfully I felt that if we were going to burn to death in a fire, no better place for it to happen than Disneyland.

But we are back, and better than ever. On October 22, Ruben and I went to Mickey's Trick-or-Treat Party, and to say we had a blast would be putting it lightly. Our goal for the night was to get character pictures, since there were numerous designated areas to do so. We only got on  one ride, Toy Story Midway Mania, and I lost but got my highest score ever and finally got that damn black cat as my prize! There's not much else to write about, so I will leave you with our pictures from the night. We will be back with posts in the coming weeks, as we will be at the parks on Saturday for my birthday party, and again on the 25th for my official birthday day!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(I was an Aquabat, even though I forgot my power belt :( and Adam was druggie version of Adam- Ruben)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SRskH_rLkuI/AAAAAAAAAKc/cBUxpg3ZFs8/s1600-h/GEDC0209.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

Being a weekend the parks were a little too crowded for my liking. But I still got on the rides that mattered. A tip for those going to the NBC Haunted Mansion- Get in line during the fireworks. We did this last night and the wait was only 30 minutes, way better than the 60+ the rest of the day. Being that I did not grab my camera when leaving yesterday all I have are some lovely cameraphone pictures, I came so close to my high score on TSMM yesterday- still something for Adam to try and top.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SPOWB1IS_BI/AAAAAAAAAI8/36iqg_UAxK4/s1600-h/Image022.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SPOWB1IS_BI/AAAAAAAAAI8/36iqg_UAxK4/s320/Image022.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5256710148257414162" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also being thats its Halloween time they had some decorations up my favorite being this&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SPOWBnFdYRI/AAAAAAAAAIk/PP5iAeXAEFg/s1600-h/Image004.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SPOWBnFdYRI/AAAAAAAAAIk/PP5iAeXAEFg/s320/Image004.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5256710144487416082" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheshire Cat pumpkin.

Adam and I hit up the parks again for a little while today as we were heading off to see H2O and Rancid (I don't really even like Rancid) at the House Of Blue at Downtown Disney.&lt;br /&gt;The Parks were easily the most crowded I had seen them all summer, which is kinda weird since technically summer is over. Our first destination was going to be the Princess Fair because I personally wanted some pictures with some princesses. We took the Railroad around to Toontown where I noticed the line for Rodger Rabbit was insanely long, and unfortunately we realized the line for the Princess Fair was also insanely long. Since we had other plans we made our way back to the entrance of Disneyland and over to California Adventure.&lt;br /&gt;While there we rode Heimlich's Train, which... just has some of the funniest Dialogue I have heard, then we went off to get a good spot for the ever so amazing Pixar's Play Parade. Which if you haven't seen is easily one of the most fun parades with a catchy song to it. My good friend Mychal (who can be seen in the picture of us with Sorcerer Mickey in the previous post) is a green army man in the parade which is why we finally saw it the other day.&lt;br /&gt;After the parade we met up with another one of my good friends Lindsey and we got on California Screamin'- which we don't do enough, as well as the Tower of Terror.&lt;br /&gt;I'm pretty sure I creeped out some lady on Tower, but thats half the fun.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are some pictures below, Adam will add the ones from the rides when he gets home later.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SNX5dkAF0UI/AAAAAAAAAH0/hanSC2mgS4g/s1600-h/GEDC0174.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SNX5dkAF0UI/AAAAAAAAAH0/hanSC2mgS4g/s320/GEDC0174.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5248375227045761346" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SNX5ukcdgAI/AAAAAAAAAH8/pCDaxaJ6p08/s1600-h/GEDC0176.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SNX5ukcdgAI/AAAAAAAAAH8/pCDaxaJ6p08/s320/GEDC0176.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5248375519222530050" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SNX595gNKEI/AAAAAAAAAIE/p_Ie6Ra7Z3M/s1600-h/GEDC0177.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SNX595gNKEI/AAAAAAAAAIE/p_Ie6Ra7Z3M/s320/GEDC0177.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5248375782573418562" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/506812150629189150-206943716936935381?l=xdisneyx.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://xdisneyx.blogspot.com/feeds/206943716936935381/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=506812150629189150&amp;postID=206943716936935381&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/506812150629189150/posts/default/206943716936935381'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/506812150629189150/posts/default/206943716936935381'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://xdisneyx.blogspot.com/2008/09/920-update.html' title='9/20 Update.'/><author><name>Ruben</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11769840655943846884</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SeeTPyGQnOI/AAAAAAAAAME/SrEaC90EKTk/s1600-R/l_54fe755cfd0b49e7a9a7ef5e577bb955.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SNX5dkAF0UI/AAAAAAAAAH0/hanSC2mgS4g/s72-c/GEDC0174.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-506812150629189150.post-4672137615484176927</id><published>2008-09-19T15:13:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-21T00:34:58.988-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Toontown'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='California Adventure'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Pictures'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Toy Story Midway Mania'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tomorrowland'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Update'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Disneyland'/><title type='text'>9/17 Update.</title><content type='html'>Ruben and I went to the parks from 2pm-8pm on Wednesday.

Somehow, neither of us had ever been on the many rides found in A Bug's Land, so we decided to stray from our normal DCA routine of Toy Story Midway Mania and explore a bit. We tried out Heimlich's Chew Chew Train and Tuck and Roll's Bumper Cars, though we didn't have enough time for Flik's Flyers which I was truly disappointed by, though hopefully we'll get to ride it tonight! After getting off of Heimlich's train, I exclaimed to the cast member that it was the best ride I had ever been on and she gave me a look like I was crazy. Oh well. We were lucky enough to exit A Bug's Land just as the Electric Parade was coming by so we had to watch and dance to our favorite part. At Disneyland, we rode the usual assortment of rides, as well as Matterhorn and Pirates.. two rides we love but don't ride too much (Ruben's Note: I can't quite say I love Pirates that much... I just like to name the Skeletons at the start. Rebbecca is the bearded one and Fernando is the one with all the treasure in case you were wondering). As usual, we had our hearts and stomachs set on In N Out after the park closed, but took a little too much time wandering out of the park to the point where we weren't sure if we could make it to the restaurant before their 1am closing time. As we were leaving the parking structure, I told Ruben that we would get to In N Out at 1:02am, and surely enough the clock struck 1:02 as we pulled up to the drive-thru speakerbox. We were so nervous that we had missed it, but luckily, someone spoke up to take our order. We were so excited that I think I may have screamed like a little girl as I told the In N Out speakerman that we sped all the way from Disneyland to make it there. However, he was not as excited as he replied with an "Excuse me?". Oh well, we got our food that we wanted and watched the intense lightning show across the sky as we ate. All in all, another great night.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SKugTr4vU6I/AAAAAAAAAEI/Gk0Z8yUNRmU/s1600-h/GEDC0146.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SKugTr4vU6I/AAAAAAAAAEI/Gk0Z8yUNRmU/s320/GEDC0146.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5236455251806999458" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SKugT0YNS-I/AAAAAAAAAEQ/Yl7MOsq_HOE/s1600-h/GEDC0149.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SKugT0YNS-I/AAAAAAAAAEQ/Yl7MOsq_HOE/s320/GEDC0149.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5236455254086470626" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SKugUWY-I-I/AAAAAAAAAEY/I_S6bVksUwI/s1600-h/GEDC0147.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SKugUWY-I-I/AAAAAAAAAEY/I_S6bVksUwI/s320/GEDC0147.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5236455263216477154" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/506812150629189150-121205581137103977?l=xdisneyx.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://xdisneyx.blogspot.com/feeds/121205581137103977/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=506812150629189150&amp;postID=121205581137103977&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/506812150629189150/posts/default/121205581137103977'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/506812150629189150/posts/default/121205581137103977'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://xdisneyx.blogspot.com/2008/08/814-update.html' title='8/14 Update'/><author><name>Adam Hersh</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02835478441883310029</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SO8B0bH9XsI/AAAAAAAAAJE/_VVE0611Zco/S220/IMG_0301.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SKugTr4vU6I/AAAAAAAAAEI/Gk0Z8yUNRmU/s72-c/GEDC0146.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-506812150629189150.post-5678060627455548971</id><published>2008-08-13T12:39:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-15T09:14:36.205-07:00</updated><title type='text'>8/10 Update</title><content type='html'>Ruben and I ventured to the park Sunday night from 8:30pm-12am. Thankfully, we met our goal of the night and got there early enough to get in a ride on Toy Story Midway Mania. I won (as usual) and finally broke the 150,000 point barrier to get the CAT prize at the end. On our way out of the park, we decided to venture through A Bug's Land since neither of us has really explored that area. Everything was already closed as it was after 9, but we got some pictures with the character displays and found a few rides that we've never been on but would like to experience in the very near future (possibly tonight!). Once inside Disneyland, we went straight to Jungle Cruise, which has become our routine as of late, and we were lucky enough to have Nathan, the best skipper I can ever remember having in my hundreds of journeys through the jungle. Hardly any of his jokes were the typical jokes you hear, and the way he delivered each joke was exceptional. On our way out of the park, we were sure to give him one of the new verbal compliment cards at City Hall. We also experienced another very nice cast member named Dani while exiting Storybook Land. She was with another family talking about taking them to ride Casey Jr., to which I had to profess my ever-growing love for the ride. While waiting in line, she asked us if we wanted to go on any other Fantasyland rides, to which we exclaimed "PETER PAN!!!", and she basically turned into Genie from Aladdin and walked us across Fantasyland, up the exit, and right onto Peter Pan!!! No wait for us!!! To be honest, I was kind of hoping for her skin to turn blue and for her to belt out a rendition of "Friend Like Me", but a free pass to the front of the Peter Pan line was good enough for me! We of course left her a verbal compliment card at the end of the night as well, even though she informed us she would only be working at Disneyland for another two weeks. We finished the night with our typical assortment of Fantasyland rides, though we didn't get on the Matterhorn as we had hoped for. I think we will be returning to the park tonight so there should be another update in the coming days.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are some pictures from last night for your enjoyment:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SKNF4nXs0zI/AAAAAAAAADg/WYiEK67xhQg/s1600-h/GEDC0122.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SKNF4nXs0zI/AAAAAAAAADg/WYiEK67xhQg/s320/GEDC0122.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5234104030878028594" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SKNF5K0fUJI/AAAAAAAAADo/tANxGdQ2mxw/s1600-h/GEDC0123.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SKNF5K0fUJI/AAAAAAAAADo/tANxGdQ2mxw/s320/GEDC0123.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5234104040394018962" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SKNF5Qdag1I/AAAAAAAAADw/GNooetJsol8/s1600-h/GEDC0126.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SKNF5Qdag1I/AAAAAAAAADw/GNooetJsol8/s320/GEDC0126.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5234104041907848018" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SKNGULpK6TI/AAAAAAAAAD4/zxVA44daHiI/s1600-h/GEDC0129.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SKNGULpK6TI/AAAAAAAAAD4/zxVA44daHiI/s320/GEDC0129.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5234104504471447858" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SKNGUfOm14I/AAAAAAAAAEA/RlU17q24I-Q/s1600-h/GEDC0142.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SKNGUfOm14I/AAAAAAAAAEA/RlU17q24I-Q/s320/GEDC0142.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5234104509728741250" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The addition of more pictures (you can all tell how lazy I, Ruben, am when it comes to this can't you?)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SKTkybzAGGI/AAAAAAAAAHM/vpWva96ketI/s1600-h/GEDC0127.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SKTkybzAGGI/AAAAAAAAAHM/vpWva96ketI/s320/GEDC0127.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5234560222017624162" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SKTky07Av1I/AAAAAAAAAHU/bH26H8zvefE/s1600-h/GEDC0128.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SKTky07Av1I/AAAAAAAAAHU/bH26H8zvefE/s320/GEDC0128.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5234560228762107730" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SKTkzfSAxLI/AAAAAAAAAHc/jCdqlBG6AFA/s1600-h/GEDC0132.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SKTkzfSAxLI/AAAAAAAAAHc/jCdqlBG6AFA/s320/GEDC0132.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5234560240132867250" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Pan + No Flash = can't see much of a picture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SKTkzuq-RKI/AAAAAAAAAHk/qZw3WPqTvLI/s1600-h/GEDC0140.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SKTkzuq-RKI/AAAAAAAAAHk/qZw3WPqTvLI/s320/GEDC0140.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5234560244264092834" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Adam only adds pictures of himself. How self centered can he be! Anyways agreeing with Adam, Nathan was easily the funniest skipper I have experienced all year, though he did have a few of the typical jokes. His delivery is what set him apart from telling the same jokes as all of the other skippers. When Dani asked if we wanted to go on any other rides our first reaction wasn't Peter Pan, it was more us staring at each other thinking "what rides are there?" until I realized and said "Oh... what about Pan?" Its funny because we never go on it. We do a lot of fantasyland rides, probably because you can do so many in such a short time.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/506812150629189150-5678060627455548971?l=xdisneyx.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://xdisneyx.blogspot.com/feeds/5678060627455548971/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=506812150629189150&amp;postID=5678060627455548971&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/506812150629189150/posts/default/5678060627455548971'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/506812150629189150/posts/default/5678060627455548971'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://xdisneyx.blogspot.com/2008/08/810-update.html' title='8/10 Update'/><author><name>Adam Hersh</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02835478441883310029</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SO8B0bH9XsI/AAAAAAAAAJE/_VVE0611Zco/S220/IMG_0301.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SKNF4nXs0zI/AAAAAAAAADg/WYiEK67xhQg/s72-c/GEDC0122.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-506812150629189150.post-1622807187124406011</id><published>2008-07-31T00:06:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-07-31T00:07:32.980-07:00</updated><title type='text'>7/23 Update</title><content type='html'>Last Wednesday, Ruben and I went to the park from 9pm-12am.

Since DCA chooses to close at 9pm (for reasons I don't fully understand), we headed straight to the pier to get a ride on Toy Story Midway Mania. I was victorious, and here is a picture of our scoreboard:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SH7D1xKf0RI/AAAAAAAAACA/LmiPdKC1dVc/s1600-h/GEDC0079.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SH7D1xKf0RI/AAAAAAAAACA/LmiPdKC1dVc/s320/GEDC0079.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5223827946294202642" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By the time we got off the ride, DCA was closed so us and the entire park headed across the esplanade to Disneyland. Once inside, the park was preparing for fireworks so it was nearly impossible to get anywhere. We had to walk completely around the hub to get to Adventureland, but when we got in front of the castle, we had a perfect view of the fireworks for a good minute or two. While attempting to circle around the hub, a little girl behind us, approximately 10 years old, started screaming "I CAN'T GO NOWHERE GRANDMA!", followed by "I JUST WANT TO PUSH ALL THESE PEOPLE OUT OF MY &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;FREAKIN'&lt;/span&gt; WAY!!!". Needless to say, Ruben and I got a good laugh out of that one. We also had another interesting encounter with a fellow guest in the park. While walking on the path connecting Frontierland, a girl i didn't know grabbed onto my arm and walked with us while talking to me. She asked my name, my age, if i was married, and then for my phone number. What a night! We did our usual assortment of rides, including Astro Blasters three times in a row with no line, but unfortunately the camera only worked on one of the three games (which also happened to be my worst!). On our way out, we had time for one more ride and decided to try out Astro Orbiter since it was right in front of us and I hadn't been on since the old Rocket Jet days above the People Mover platform.  Bad choice, Adam! The ride basically is the equivalent to Dumbo on crack,and I was completely dizzy after getting off the ride.

California Adventure was probably the busiest I have ever seen it with the wait time for Grizzly Rapids at 80 minutes. We did not arrive at the park until close to 5:00 because of other things that we had to do today (Adam got a hair cut for the first time in forever). We thought ahead from the heat and purchased bottles of water before beginning our wait for TSMM.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SFiS_pnZOvI/AAAAAAAAAGc/TxOil8VQ4AY/s1600-h/GEDC0041.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SFiS_pnZOvI/AAAAAAAAAGc/TxOil8VQ4AY/s320/GEDC0041.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5213078190881848050" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We began our wait through the sun and the heat. The start of the long line is right alongside the water side of the pier which provided us the constant launch noise of California Screaming, which gets pretty annoying fast. As the line stretches on they hold up the sidewalk to get groups past and from there we had to zig and zag through the lovely lines until we got to the first indoor portion of the line. Inside here were posters for some of the games we were about to play, but to easily make one forget about that was the heat. The room does not do well with the summer and body heat, while there are fans inside the room they do nothing, except probably make it hotter. Added to it all the screaming and crying kids who definitely did not want to be standing in that line for 5 more minutes let alone another 30+&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SFiUw8TLfcI/AAAAAAAAAGk/MbmNIcl9DdI/s1600-h/GEDC0042.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SFiUw8TLfcI/AAAAAAAAAGk/MbmNIcl9DdI/s320/GEDC0042.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5213080137222553026" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The heat enjoyed making my hair wavy. Also Disney asks that you wear your 3-D Glasses over your sunglasses to make the game that much more fun.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Ride itself is everything I hoped it would be and more. Though it was only the first time I rode it the guns are fairly easy to use. My only mistake was that I was not letting the string that you use to fire the gun return all the way before attempting to fire again- or I was not pushing it back in enough. Once you get the hang of aiming and firing the weapon its a blast to play the different games throughout the ride, be careful though because some targets may do some various things that catch you off guard.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SFiWCcjJGoI/AAAAAAAAAGs/bPMv8PzC4HY/s1600-h/GEDC0047.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SFiWCcjJGoI/AAAAAAAAAGs/bPMv8PzC4HY/s320/GEDC0047.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5213081537448843906" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Obviously Adam having already been on the ride and knowing what to expect beat me  though I feel that I did pretty good.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SFiWgzqZ7MI/AAAAAAAAAG0/0kDaZI1dpmc/s1600-h/GEDC0048.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SFiWgzqZ7MI/AAAAAAAAAG0/0kDaZI1dpmc/s320/GEDC0048.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5213082059049397442" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;This was in the exit its the ride in actual size.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Afterwards we were going to go to ESPN Zone for dinner and to watch the game- but we were informed there would be no free tables till after the game.

I FINALLY saw "Bones" on Indiana Jones. Total ride counts have been updated. Enjoy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We will be returning to Disneyland on Tuesday for the grand opening of Toy Story Midway Mania, so expect an update from that glorious day soon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also, here are some pictures from the night..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SFW6Rh44mGI/AAAAAAAAAF4/AggLoMik6Cc/s1600-h/GEDC0023.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SFW6Rh44mGI/AAAAAAAAAF4/AggLoMik6Cc/s320/GEDC0023.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5212276954068719714" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SFW9TmpKoOI/AAAAAAAAAGI/ZHZFtcLlg4I/s1600-h/GEDC0037.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SFW9TmpKoOI/AAAAAAAAAGI/ZHZFtcLlg4I/s320/GEDC0037.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5212280288239591650" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What Adam did fail to mention was that last night happened to be the unofficial (or maybe official? Nobody ever really tells me these things) "raver" or "candy kid" or whatever you want to call them, day at Disneyland. This was learned when we thought about the fact that we happened to be at Disneyland on this same day last year (as in second Saturday in June) to ride the ever so hard to see out of for people who are taller that 5'5" Nemo Subs, the park was filled with the exact same children as there were last night- crazy kids if you ask me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We almost didn't go on Indiana Jones. It was about 5 minutes till the park closed and we were standing between Jungle Cruise and Indy. A little over an hour before than we passed by Indy with a wait time of 75 minutes, then the wait was only 20. A coin flip decided our fate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When we sat in the car we were on the right hand side, Adam  turned and said to me "Man I'm not going to be able to see Bones this time" then moments after we passed by Bones on the ride he turns to me and excitedly goes "I finally saw Bones!!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are additional pictures from the night&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SFW4N7HsNeI/AAAAAAAAAFo/t9tTVuCVncM/s1600-h/GEDC0022.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SFW4N7HsNeI/AAAAAAAAAFo/t9tTVuCVncM/s320/GEDC0022.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5212274693098976738" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SFW6DJTe_jI/AAAAAAAAAFw/htOkcDpe1YY/s1600-h/GEDC0025.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SFW6DJTe_jI/AAAAAAAAAFw/htOkcDpe1YY/s320/GEDC0025.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5212276706951233074" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SFW7SIhO0QI/AAAAAAAAAGA/td9U-kzdNHs/s1600-h/GEDC0030.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SFW7SIhO0QI/AAAAAAAAAGA/td9U-kzdNHs/s320/GEDC0030.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5212278063950123266" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SFW9__ol94I/AAAAAAAAAGQ/Vj2xXpuqbKk/s1600-h/GEDC0038.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SFW9__ol94I/AAAAAAAAAGQ/Vj2xXpuqbKk/s320/GEDC0038.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5212281050862319490" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/506812150629189150-7701667928184998624?l=xdisneyx.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://xdisneyx.blogspot.com/feeds/7701667928184998624/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=506812150629189150&amp;postID=7701667928184998624&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/506812150629189150/posts/default/7701667928184998624'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/506812150629189150/posts/default/7701667928184998624'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://xdisneyx.blogspot.com/2008/06/614-update.html' title='6/14 Update'/><author><name>Adam Hersh</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02835478441883310029</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SO8B0bH9XsI/AAAAAAAAAJE/_VVE0611Zco/S220/IMG_0301.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_1j8EQxGjptI/SFW6Rh44mGI/AAAAAAAAAF4/AggLoMik6Cc/s72-c/GEDC0023.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-506812150629189150.post-8296885480204798457</id><published>2008-06-11T22:08:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T15:27:56.933-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='California Adventure'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Pictures'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Toy Story Midway Mania'/><title type='text'>Toy Story Midway Mania</title><content type='html'>About a month ago, I entered my name into the Annual &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Passholder&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; lottery for a sneak preview on the new Toy Story Midway Mania ride, opening at &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;DCA&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; on June 17&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;th&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. For last year's similar contest for the Finding &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Nemo&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Submarine Voyage, myself and four people I know entered and none of us won, so needless to say, I didn't have very high hopes for this year's lottery. However, on the morning of June 2&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;nd&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, I was more than delighted to see an email proclaiming I had won a sneak preview on the ride, on June 10&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;th&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; between 10am and 3pm. I think describing myself as incredibly ecstatic would be a bit of an understatement. I did my best to keep my excitement to myself and not brag to my friends TOO much in the week between the email and my date to ride, as I was only allowed to bring a fellow &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;passholder&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; with me to ride, and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;unfortuantely&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, my fellow &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;passholder&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; friends all had prior engagements for the special day. But would that stop me from fulfilling my destiny as one of the first to ride this spectacular ride?! I DON'T THINK SO!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I got to the parks around 1:15 and went straight to the booth in Downtown Disney to be awarded my pass to preview the ride. From there, it was off to the pier to make my dream a reality. At the front of the line, a couple &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;CM's&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; were stationed to make sure that you had a pass for the preview, as well as an annual pass for each member of your group. The line and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;theming&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; are very impressive, except for the fact that a decent portion of the line is uncovered from the sun, which will not be fun for the long lines expected this summer. The first covered room of the queue features a number of posters, previewing the various games that you get to play on the ride (a picture of my favorite poster is included later in this post). Upon getting in line and eavesdropping on other people's conversations, I learned that &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;CM's&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; were allowing people to re-ride as much as they wanted, as long as the line stayed relatively short. Luckily for me, it did, and I got to ride not one, not two, not three, not four, but FIVE times in a row, waiting only about 10 minutes each time. By my last trip, the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;CM's&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; started joking around with me about going on so many times in a row, but really, how could I resist?!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The ride itself is absolutely incredible. I had a pretty good idea of what the actual games were going to be like, but really didn't know what to expect for the surrounding areas and the actual  movement of the cars between games. The attention to detail is stunning of the sets is stunning for a Toy Story fanatic like myself, and I especially enjoyed seeing the blue wallpaper with white clouds on it, just like in Andy's room in the movies. As much as I want to, I don't feel I should give anything else away, but just know that you will all be extremely impressed once the ride opens to the public next week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are some pictures from the queue, ride, and my final score screen on four of my five rides (my fourth &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;ride's&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; score didn't show up on my screen unfortunately).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SFC2VU-2JXI/AAAAAAAAAAM/ttfQlKFIJzo/s1600-h/photo%282%29.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SFC2VU-2JXI/AAAAAAAAAAM/ttfQlKFIJzo/s200/photo%282%29.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5210865246393476466" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;My special pass!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SFC2VU-2JYI/AAAAAAAAAAU/1X-Mnplw-dU/s1600-h/photo%283%29.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SFC2VU-2JYI/AAAAAAAAAAU/1X-Mnplw-dU/s200/photo%283%29.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5210865246393476482" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;My favorite poster from the queue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SFC2Vk-2JZI/AAAAAAAAAAc/BbY9GiRosK4/s1600-h/photo%284%29.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SFC2Vk-2JZI/AAAAAAAAAAc/BbY9GiRosK4/s200/photo%284%29.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5210865250688443794" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The beginning of the ride!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SFC2V0-2JaI/AAAAAAAAAAk/lWzSgKXesPs/s1600-h/photo%285%29.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SFC2V0-2JaI/AAAAAAAAAAk/lWzSgKXesPs/s200/photo%285%29.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5210865254983411106" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;My first score.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SFC2V0-2JbI/AAAAAAAAAAs/r-KQMST6bnw/s1600-h/photo%286%29.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SFC2V0-2JbI/AAAAAAAAAAs/r-KQMST6bnw/s200/photo%286%29.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5210865254983411122" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;My second score.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SFC2j0-2JcI/AAAAAAAAAA0/m5Ywr1etU0Y/s1600-h/photo%287%29.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SFC2j0-2JcI/AAAAAAAAAA0/m5Ywr1etU0Y/s200/photo%287%29.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5210865495501579714" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;My third score.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SFC2j0-2JdI/AAAAAAAAAA8/gez3mghd1qw/s1600-h/photo.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SFC2j0-2JdI/AAAAAAAAAA8/gez3mghd1qw/s200/photo.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5210865495501579730" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;My final, and best score!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[For the record- I hate the fact that Adam was able to ride it while I was stuck at work.

Picture evidence of Yoda partaking in each event will help to prove the legitimacy of the trio's Disneyland conquests, for those of you who may choose to doubt our incredible acheivements. We are prepared to make believers out of each and every non-believer out there. Please do not allow yourself to underestimate the combined power of a Jedi master and two studly nerds. You will regret it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We Are Unstoppable.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/506812150629189150-4120196324598010175?l=xdisneyx.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://xdisneyx.blogspot.com/feeds/4120196324598010175/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=506812150629189150&amp;postID=4120196324598010175&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/506812150629189150/posts/default/4120196324598010175'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/506812150629189150/posts/default/4120196324598010175'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://xdisneyx.blogspot.com/2008/05/beginning.html' title='The beginning.'/><author><name>Adam Hersh</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02835478441883310029</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_QFFY2kGi_k4/SO8B0bH9XsI/AAAAAAAAAJE/_VVE0611Zco/S220/IMG_0301.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
