"Postcards from California Adventure" Notecard Giveaway!

The Disney California Adventure expansion is incredibly breathtaking and deserves all of the hype it is getting.  DCA held a special place in my heart when I visited last summer as it felt like it was everything I always wanted from Hollywood Studios in Disney World.  Disney loves setting the bar higher and higher and the addition of Buena Vista Street and Carsland does just that! 

I took 100s of pictures in Disneyland this past week but I was so psyched for the expansions that I posted some pictures over on the Picturing Disney Facebook page.

I also was so excited about the expansion that I brought home lots of goodies.  I wanted to share something with you through a little contest. 

What's the Prize? 

Set of 4 "Postcards from California Adventure" note cards.  The picture above shows all 4 together and below I snapped some individual pics (sorry for the low quality, I used my cell phone)! These are awesome and I plan to hang a set up in my Disney kitchen.  The Red Car Trolley one is especially awesome (and Buena Vista Street is my new favorite place in the park-- maybe in all the Disney Pakrs I've visited)!

How do you enter?

Simply head over to the Picturing Disney Facebook page and check out the Buena Vista Street and Carsland albums.  YOU WILL RECEIVE ONE ENTRY FOR EACH TIME YOU LIKE, COMMENT, OR SHARE ONE OF THE PICTURES FROM THESE TWO ALBUMS! 

I think this is a fun way for me to see my pictures shared and for you guys to win some awesome artistic note cards! You will have until Midnight Thursday July 5th to enter!

Good luck!!

I'll Have a Mint Julep With That!

Have you checked out Kungaloosh, yet?

If the castle picture and the chili review wasn't enough to give you a reason to check out the Kungaloosh facebook, how about heading over and telling DK your favorite Disney Adult Beverage? I think mine is either the Captains Mai Tai at Caribbean Beach or Gran Marnier Slush in Epcot! 

DK's take on this refreshing (non-alcoholic) drink:

I could spend an afternoon soaking up the atmosphere of New Orleans Square. And soaking up the sweet goodness of the non-alcoholic Mint Julep served at the Mint Julep Bar.  I like them served with a side of fresh, powdered Mickey-shaped beignets. Now, some people might tell you that combination is a bit too sweet. I don’t even know what that means.

Walt in Morse Code

Taking a trip on the Disneyland Railroad?

Welllll, be sure to listen closely as you pass the telegraph station near New Orleans: you can hear a part of Walt's Opening Day Disneyland speech in morse code!

Now thats magic!

The most magical part of the rooms in Disneyland Hotel isn't quite the adorable pillows or pictures.  Its that when you click the Tinkerbell button on the bedside lamp LED fireworks go off on the headboard over the castle as music plays!!! :)

Make it Shine...
