The early entry is 2 hours long, which makes it so much more worth it to stay on site IMO!
Oh, good to know! Very worthwhile.
While we were taking photos, a CM told me to go get a pregnancy pass because I wouldn't have to wait in line, even for characters, with that. While I knew about the pregnancy pass being good for a small number of rides (remember my issue with how many rides were supposed to be no-go's for pregnant women?). Well I didn't realize they also worked for character meets.
Wow, even character meets?! They must really consider pregnant women fragile and unable to stand.
Really different than the US parks.
Apparently my loose top combined with the shawl like cardigan did not fool that CM, although I wasn't trying to fool her lol
You crack me up. On another note, though - that's got to be one heck of a difficult job. I mean, who wants to be the person guessing whether or not women are pregnant and confronting them about it?
Very nice. You must have quite a collection of these by now!
And we headed to Peter Pan, which was a walk-on this early (It was probably 8:20 at this point, still early entry). I used my sweater to cover my belly and picked up Aria, and was able to ride without a glance.
I just don't get why things like Peter Pan are off limits. I know (at least I think) it's something about the lap bar, but it seems silly that the baby could ride it OUTSIDE of your belly in a few months, but not while cushioned inside.
Also, sounds like some of the spinning rides were okay, which really makes this one strange.
We took the elevator down to the dungeon, where the dragon lives. Aria didn't like this part so much!
Very cool. When we were in Disneyland, I briefly thought the dragon was there and mentioned it to Izzy. She was very scared of the castle for a short time until I realized I was thinking of DLP.
Andrew then went on to go ride Space Mountain - which is a REALLY awesome roller coaster, way different from WDW or DL (height requirement is 52"!!)
Sounds fun! And I'm glad I just squeezed over that height requirement by a foot!
We were still waiting for Andrew (although he was out of the ride and waiting for us elsewhere, it's a lot harder to do Disney without cell phones!)
Ugh, I hadn't thought about that at all. I guarantee we are going to have problems relating to losing each other without cell service.
hahaha they are for Seattle and Holland/Italy. Not Disney related but they are the current 2017 trips we're planning (I'm sure Disney will make an appearance a couple times though, Lynda is already thinking about a May trip with her baby)
Oh, okay. When is Seattle? That's great that Lynda is thinking of a trip...when is baby due again?
So after those rides, we decided to check out the Alice in Wonderland maze. This is something only at DLP, so super cool to see.
That sounds really neat! I had no idea it existed.
Cute dress!
A CM commented to Aria, nice boots
Well, they were thematically appropriate!
I just found a Sheriff Callie dress on clearance for Izzy that she can maybe wear to meet Woody and Jessie or something at WDW, but you're making me realize she doesn't have any cowboy boots to go with it!
What belly? (there was a CM at the entrance to the ride standing right off to the side lol)
Instead Andrew rode Indiana Jones (more of a roller coaster than DL's ride) and loved it,
Ooooh, that sounds cool too.
Earlier, Andrew had picked up FP's for Big Thunder to ride again, and those were ready so after a while playing, Aria agreed to ride again. This time Andrew knew where to hold onto her and she loved it!
Glad she had a good ride!
I'm taking these photos from Facebook, because my pics on Photobucket are not accessible anymore, it's blocked at work
because of that, all my food pics are not here as I didn't upload them to FB).
Well, that's a bummer. And surprising Photobucket would be blocked but not Facebook (or the DIS). Maybe you can send yourself the links from your phone or from home? If you have the links, you should be able to copy them into a post without actually accessing Photobucket.
They did have a carriage outside so we took a photo with it, then laid Aria down in the stroller.
Haha, for a second I thought you were going to say you laid her down in the carriage.
we stopped in some shops on the way and I bought myself some PJs (my usual souvenier)
You must have a ton of PJs with all these trips.
On the walk back to the park, Aria pretended that I was Anna, Andrew was Kristoff, and she was elsa. She even found mist coming out of something and pretended it was her ice magic.
Very cute! Reminds me of a little someone I know. Izzy made us play our Frozen roles all weekend once.
And that was it. hahahhaha.
We noticed here a super lack of care as people had hopped the fence and were sitting on the grass, smoking etc. I couldn't stand the smell, so Aria and I went off while ANdrew held our places.
Ugh, I hate smoke. Sounds like this will be obnoxious when/if we go.
