Nest has been getting all shy and embarrassed when I've been relaying to him how much people have commented favourably on his photos. His night time shot of the entrance to the Hollywood Backlot in DCA was selected by Schmap (an online tourist type guide to places around the world) for inclusion to their guide to California (2nd ed.) - the whole family was elated I haven't posted it online yet, so here it is:


If I continue on any longer, I'll burst with pride , so I'll move on (it's just that I get so excited when things turn out for my brothers after all the effort they've put into things, and previous knock-backs they've experienced.)

IASW certainly is extremely stunning at night during the Christmas season. Imagine how high your Christmas sprit would be with being involved in such elaborate decorating procedures! I often wonder how I'd cope going in the non-holiday season, but then assume that surely the building is still lit up, if only with white fairy lights.

As for the missed character dining events, I consider myself lucky to have gotten away with having dinner at Goofy's Kitchen! I really really want to have dinner at Cinderella's Royal Table next time I go to Disney World (a long long long way off in the future), especially as I was ill when I went last time and could hardly eat a thing without it disagreeing with me, so I think I'll neglect to mention the characters there which will be gracing us with their prescence Surely I'll be forgiven once they realise just what a fantastic experience the whole thing will be.

I've already started work on my next post , but haven't got all that far with it yet. It's another day at Disneyland post. Having said that, it's different from my other days at Disney posts (different in a good way, not a bad way.) There will be two surprises with it Having said that, I hope the whole thing turns out - I'll perservere until it does and/or post a help question in the relevant section.
