What a great weekend at DL Sunday was great Really the whole trip was one of the best I've ever had!

The fireworks on Fri night were unbelievable! The 50th Tour on Sat was great did the 4:00pm one so saw the parade very happy to see a good parade. Sunday was cool the best was the 9:00 Fantasmic. We were walking by about 9:15 and saw a CM manager cause he had a suit on so ask what would be a good time to line up for the 10:30 show. He asked if it was just two of us (the wife and I) said yes he then waved over a younger CM one of the yellow shirt one's and said take them to section B. Followed him and went into this roped off section and passed us off onto another yellow shirt CM she explained in front of rope was sitting behind was standing. Then asked what party we were with. I told her just the wife and I she explained that the section was for VP's we were dead center one level up from the bottom walk way That was a unbelievable view.

On Monday our last day we needed to ride Splash Mountain again cause our prior 5 trips to get a good pic had not worked out to well. So our 6th and final ride of the day had to get to the airport. We got on and things were going great went up got inside the mountain and rounded a corner right before you do the drop to the dark blacklight section. The stop boards popped out and held us we sat and sat then the music stopped and all the lights came on. My daughters heart dropped Splash is her favorite ride and this was her first trip with her soon to be husband so she really wanted a pic. Then about 5 min later a very nice CM showed up and helped us unload. I asked about pics and he said go for it cause you'll probable never get the opportunity again. So we started our walk out going down to the next boat to get those passengers the to the next etc.. The attached link is to the pics

This was one of the coolest trips to the park for my family I hope everybody else that went had a great trip to

Bummer about the ride...BUT AWESOME you got those pics!!!! Rare photos! Very cool. I am jealous you got to do that :) I always have wanted to see different rides when they are not in operation. Just to see how it looks not all "lit up and singing"! The ending to your great trip!

You're killing me! I go to Dland all the time, only ride that has ever broken down was Indy, and that was at the very end, 1 (or 2) cars from the loading ramp... woo exciting, I know... bah...

Oh, I have three videos from the front seat, on the big drop... anyone interested?

Great pics!!
I'm surprised they let you up that close to the AA's. Or did you happen to sneak around?

Very cool pics, lucky it broke down in a way! Not many people will have photos like that.

Most of the time, CMs don't usually let guests take pics like that. But I guess it just depends on how much of a stickler they are. Or, at least allowing them to pose for pics like that when they're trying to evac you from the ride as quickly as possible.

The CM was great we were in no hurry to get out He came up to us then we walk down to the next boat so while they were getting off-loaded he said we could take pics.

oh as soon as I can get it uploaded right I have Space Mountain video in night vision I'll post that later tonight
