So Mike & I took Anthony & Addy to see the Disney on Ice, "Let's Celebrate" show on Thursday. We went last year, but the name of that show is lost somewhere in my mind....... I absolutely love going. I've always loved watching ice skating but add in Disney characters I'm all for it!! This show couldn't have been more perfect, I'm a huge fan of the holidays....decorating year round.....so when I read this show was about celebrating the different holidays from America as well as a few from around the world.....I knew I had to go. Since we went last year, I received a pre-sale offer to get tickets for $11 each......I couldn't resist!! Last year we paid thru the nose for the VIP seats (but since that was our first time.....I really wanted the best seats)......so I didn't see why we needed to pay that much this year. The show was held in Portland at the Rose Garden. Here is a pic of the set-up:
Here is the view from our seats.....not too bad...wish we could have been to the right side of the photo as this is the "center" but we still had a great view!!
Here's Addy, Mike & Anthony as we waited for the show to begin:
Now I will say....the ticket prices were awesome....but the souvenirs & snacks were ridiculous!!! The spinny lights (you all know what I'm talking about).....were $22 each!! The snow cone with light up cups started at $15 each, the popcorn bucket was $15 & the cotton candy was $12. We stuck with a couple of the spinny lights & one cotton candy....yikes!
The show begins with Luminaire from Beauty & the Beast coming out to ask us to "Be Our Guest":
Belle comes out:
More & more characters come out to join in (we're told there were 50 characters in all in this show). In the opening (in these pics) included:
Tweedle Dee & Tweedle Dum, White Rabbit, Dopey, Snow White, Pinocchio, Geppeto, Blue Fairy, Aladdin, Jasmine, Cinderella, Prince Charming, Tinkerbell, Peter Pan, Pluto, Goofy, Daisy Duck, Donald Duck, Minnie Mouse, Mickey Mouse, Belle, Ariel, Prince Eric, Alice, & Mad Hatter:
I also saw Baloo & Mowgli.....just wasn't able to get a pic of them!
This concluded the Opening Act.
