Catching Up (Make Up Photos)

Now, I missed a few things at Liberty Square, Toontown, and Fantasyland.

Most of them were characters, but one was a new show that just started. I'm not positive if it was today or yesterday, but it's very new.

Let's start with the Judge's Tent in Toontown, home of Pixie Hollow and the Princess Room.

I started in Pixie Hollow, home of the fairies.



I had a little bit of a rough time with the Fairies because I had no idea what they were talking about. I've never heard of two of them and then Tink was just making sure I wasn't a pirate. The other female fairy apparently helps out the animals, like painting dots on ladybugs or pulling butterflies from cacoons. The guy plays soccer with a ball made of mashed up leaves. They were all WAY to energetic and spastic. I love meeting the characters, but this whole fairy thing made me extremely uncomfortable.

I was so relieved to get out of Pixie Hollow and into the Princess Room.



I was fine with the Princesses. Not only am I familiar with their stories, but they're not dangerously insane like the Pixies are.

Next I saw Alice, the White Rabbit, and the Queen of Hearts in Fantasyland. Alice actually went on a spin with some guests on the tea cups which was very cool for them.



Finally, Tiana's Showboat Jubilee. It starts with a procession up Liberty Square.



Then, they board the Liberty Belle Paddleboat and sing a couple of numbers.



Here's a video I shot during the Jubilee. Now, bear in mind that I am NOT a videographer. I'm barely a photographer.



After the boat goes around Tom Sawyer island and returns to port, the procession then gets off the boat and comes back down the street followed by a grand finale, which I also videotaped.

There's more to come, including my conversation with Push from Tomorrowland. I think that will be the next photo entry.

PS: I am having a lot of problems with the videos loading. I got one in and I'm going to try and get the others one too, but as seperate posts perhaps. Anyway, I'm trying!

Princess Tiana, Prince Naveen and Liberty Square Photos

Here are some photos from Liberty Square, starting with me meeting Disney's newest princess, Princess Tiana. She was with her prince, Prince Naveen.



Today was the first day that she met with guests so I think it's pretty special that I got to see her. It was really exciting to be a very small part of something like that. I mean, how many people can say they met a Princess on their first day? Not many.

She is currently doing her meetings behind the Christmas Shop. This area was once a smoking area but has since been refurbished into a little area (I think called her bayou) for her to meet with guests. It doesn't look to much like the bayou right now, but that I guess could change.

She did seem to like my shirt. She asked if I knew Doctor Facilier (the main antagonist) to which I said, "No, I've never met him." Prince Naveen said I should watch out for him because he might turn me into a frog.

Here's a trailer of the movie.



The soundtrack for this New Orleans movie should be amazing. Princess Tiana now also has a little show she does onto the Liberty Belle Paddleboat a few times a day. I didn't see it, but you'll see the boat decked out in Mardi Gras colors.

Now, onto the rest of Libery Square.



There's honestly not a whole lot there as it is the smallest land (I think) in the Magic Kingdom. If it's not the smallest, it sure feels that way. We of course have to start the Liberty Square tour with our beloved Haunted Mansion.



There's also the previously mentioned Liberty Square Riverboat. From the boat are quite a few interesting views, including some things you can only see from the boat. One can also see a different view of Tom Sawyer Island and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, both residents of Frontierland.



By the way, this is the way the boat looked before it was decorated for our newest Princess.



Let's not forget the imfamous Hall of Presidents. I do like this show. A bit of good American history. Below are pictures from the waiting area which is more of a mini-historical exhibit on the men who[m] have held the highest office in this great land.



There's of course some shopping in Liberty Square.



This land also features some nifty places to eat.



I leave you with a few shots taken around the area.
