Hidden Mickey Monday!

This Mickey was only on display for a limited time to promote the Lone Ranger premiere at Disney's California Adventure. The train prop from the film was on display in Hollywoodland, and if you peeked inside this clever Mickey was looking down at you. Limited Mickeys are the most rewarding to find!

The Lone Ranger World Premiere

On June 23, 2013 Disney's California Adventure hosted the World Premiere of Disney's latest film, The Lone Ranger. We only found out about the event because we saw them setting up the red carpet a few days in advance. We lined up around 5am, and the event started about 6pm. It was a very hot, very long day to sit on a curb, but totally worth it! Here's a few shots from the day.

Hidden Mickey Monday!

Today's Mickey can be found aboard the Disney Dream Cruise Ship (and probably the other Disney ships as well). At the buffet style restaurant, Cabana's, you can find these cute juice cups with subtle Mickeys amidst the texture pattern.

Sorry for the haitus, we have been very busy with the wedding and moving, but I have a ton of Disney events to catch up on. I will be posting more about our stay aboard the Dream soon, as well as our other Disney Honeymoon adventures!

Club 33

While planning our honeymoon, Ryan and I had the once in a lifetime opportunity to eat at the super secret Club 33!

Eating here was literally one of the things on my Bucket List, and our experience was even better than I had dreamed. We got a table in the main room, right next to the windows overlooking Cafe Orleans. The food was amazing, and they even surprised us with a complimentary dessert! We got to watch Fantasmic! from the outside balcony, and were allowed to stay and walk around as long as we liked. There was concept art all over the walls, and a few props from live action Disney films. 
It felt like we were having dinner with a little piece of Walt.

Just thought I would share some inside pictures from our night there.

Club 33 is the only place in Disneyland that serves alcohol, hence my "real" Mint Julep

Disney Secrets: Country Bears Homage

Did you know that the Winnie the Pooh ride was build over where the Country Bears Jamboree used to be? In honor of the Country Bears, the three talking heads Max, Buff, and Melvin,
have been placed inside the Pooh ride. Just as you leave the heffalumps and woozles room, look up and behind you to see the hanging heads!
