Ariel

Blegh, I know it took me forever to decide to do this, but I finally decided to write about my meeting with Ariel!
She said she likes the red in my hair (I like it red too!)
She kinda looks like Zooey Deschanel...
Um, there was nothing that special about this meeting.
Oh! I have something!
So, we just got in the park around 2 or 3 and PLENTY of the characters were out and about!
And most people, like myself, around 3 are either eating or waiting for a ride, not meeting characters, so if you want to have a good chance of meeting characters, try around Main Street and Fantasyland (which I think is the place with the most meetable characters because once Ariel, Aurora and Peter were meeting around the same place at the same time!)


So! Tip #4 (I think):
Most characters meet around 3, so be sure to be on the lookout! 


Look at the bubbles!
And also because there was such a large number of characters out, I wasn't prepared with my Sharpie colours (I only had like 3 colours, one for Ariel, Rapunzel and if I happened to meet Captain Jack).


So Tip #5: 
If you like a colourful autograph book: BRING COLOURS. ALL OF THEM.




So I guess that's all for right now, folks!

Rapunzels and Flynn Pt. 2

Yes! Today I ACTUALLY MET FLYNN!!!! So this is where I put you into a deep sleep with my story:
     When we (me, Lena [my best friend] and Nick [my brother]) first got to Disneyland, we checked to see if Flynn was there (I was totally bent on meeting him) and first tried to crane our necks to see if Flynn was in the room (if you don't know, the Meet 'n Greet place is INSIDE) and since they're so deep in the room and people are always blocking the door, we asked if he would be in today, but the lady replied "He pops in occasionally, I can only guarantee Rapunzel will be in there."
     We left and had some fun on a few rides, came back and peeped in to see if Rapunzel and Flynn were in there.
     My brother shouted, "He's there!" and we freaking ran into line.
     We waited about an hour I think but throughout the whole line, the door opened and closed signaling that they left for a few minutes (and there was a weirdo Cast Member named Raymond) and I got really worried because it was almost time for Rapunzel to leave for the Soundsational Parade (the 4:00 one, we were around the front at 3:45).
     But awesomely enough we made it in before 4, but we were hoping that Flynn was there but he wasn't there, but the cutest Rapunzel was in (she's my favourite one now)!
     There was a family that took a while to go, but we had all the time ever anyways and then I got another autograph form Rapunzel :D
This is the second Rapunzel's autograph, I like the Z

     We were talking a little since my brother and I were up and she said purple is her favourite colour and complimented my Sharpie colour choice And I told her we were celebrating meeting her (she asked if we were celebrating anything) 
     We were about to talk a little more and then Lena called, "FLYNN!" and lo and behold he just opened the curtain (the exit from the Meet 'n Greet place) and Nick and I freaked.
I was so excited and apparently it was the best reaction to Flynn today (yay!). 
     I got him to even sign with a very awesome cerulean Sharpie like I wanted, but I was so freaked out at this chance encounter, I forgot to ask him to sign it as Eugene, but I did after.
Rapunzel liked the little arrow he drew
     Anyways, he placed it somewhere and I said he better not steal it and Rapunzel assured me he wouldn't because her frying pan was right there and I told him I would get Maximus on him. And then we had this whole conversation about Eugene vs. Flynn and we agreed though Eugene is nice, Flynn is MUCH cooler. We took a picture and then we finally left and considered my life status: COMPLETE!
As Rapunzel said, "BEST DAY EVER!"

Rapunzels and Flynn Pt. 1

Just me and Rapunzel
So, since my second autograph photo (Ariel) isn't in yet, I'm gonna start with my favourite, Rapunzel and Flynn 
I'll start off with my first Tangled encounter which happened June 17th, a Friday (it helps me place my visits). My best friend and I have year passes so we waited in line for like an hour or so (it's not that bad actually as it looks, just as long as you have something to do or talk about, oh that must be a tip!)


Tip #2: Be prepared to wait! 


Tip #3: And if you skip all the long-looking lines, you'll never do anything! 



Isn't the R so pretty? 
So, we were delayed a little because the Soundsational Parade is around 4:00 which is when we got there and waited 10 or so minutes. And when we were finally there, it was only Rapunzel in there (I was so ready to meet Flynn). I had to hurry though because there were a ton of people (and a Disney photographer) and we were shoved on our merry way. It was pretty cool to finally meet Rapunzel (and the autograph was so cute!), but it wasn't that amazing because 1) Flynn wasn't there and 2) we had to leave fast

Peter Pan


Okay, so here you can see my first autographs: Peter's and Captain Hook's.
I got a green Sharpie because obviously Peter wears green (he told me it's his favourite colour when I handed him the marker and that my real name is pretty). I would have given Hook a red one, but they only had 5 minutes left. My goal that day was to meet Peter and it just so happened he was meeting right by the armory store (though I've seen him near Peter Pan's Flight)
Luckily for lines like for moving characters, they move pretty fast.


So the tip here is:
Wander around a bit! You'll never know when you'll get lucky!



Not the Peter I wanted, but definitely a good picture!


Autographs

I know a lot of people like getting autographs from the Disney characters at Disneyland, CA and so do I!
First, let me explain my own autograph book.
I have different Sharpie colours for my autograph book because I don't want a plain autograph book with one or two plain ink colours, so I bring my Sharpies and have the characters sign with "according colours."
The first set of autographs I have in my current book include just Peter Pan, Captain Hook, Ariel and Rapunzel.
I'll have posts explaining each of those and hopefully some tips
:D

Buenos Días!

Just so you know, I'm not ACTUALLY Spanish. 
I am learning Spanish though.
But that's beside the point, I was hoping to get a blogspot to post my art, but now I think I'll try to do that and update you on my Disney adventures!
I'll try to give tips 'n stuff and hopefully we can be good friends.
So, long story short, I don't know what to make of this blog, but I'm hoping you can enjoy it!
