Wed, 15:14: Did Toy Story, K didn't quite crack 200 k this time. I didn't crack 150k. :)
Wed, 15:15: Collected Frozen the musical FastPasses and headed to DVC deck in GC for our tour/sales pitch
Wed, 15:19: DVC is fairly low pressure sales, though not "pressure free" as they will tell you. Didn't buy a contract today though. :)
Wed, 15:23: DVC sales office is at DL hotel, so we walked by our room and dropped off the literature, caught monorail to DL
Wed, 15:25: Bought pins at Little Green Men store, which has a few series 3 left of a 4-part mosaic--series 4 is easy to find.
Wed, 15:28: Park hopped across the plaza to DCA, to Carthay Circle lounge. I thought you could order from the restaurant menu in lounge, but no.
Wed, 15:52: Got a salad with smoked turkey, cherry tomatoes, corn, artichokes. Very good. https://t.co/6kiW8wzkUj
Wed, 15:53: Off to the Frozen musical, hope to time it to minimize standing as we wait to go in.
Wed, 16:31: Frozen the musical form the top of the house. The water effect on the stage looks good from here. Suspect we'll miss a bit of staging though
Wed, 16:31: Water projection on stage. https://t.co/3wKDElnBFh

Wed, 16:33: We're in the top row of balcony, stairs are steep and triggered my height issues, so we didn't try for a lower row.
Wed, 18:27: Not too bad of a view from the top row of Frozen, this time the special effect worked in the chase/jump scene. Anna, Kristoff & Sven 'flew'
Wed, 18:29: Hopped back to DL. Chatted and pin traded w CM outside of SBux. He traded K a cast exclusive DCA anniversary pin for a Star Wars pin she had
Wed, 18:35: Cold drinks in hand, listening to the Dapper Dans from the open door of air conditioned shop.
Wed, 19:24: Turned around and spotted pin trader Terry again. K had a collection of Chip and Dale pins for him, got Hidden Mickeys in return
Wed, 19:46: Stopped at Westward Ho pin shop, K opened a few Pixar alphabet pins so CMs could see them. Over to Little Green Men and saw Terry again.
Wed, 19:46: To Edelweiss Snacks for corn on the cob as snack.
Wed, 20:15: Monorail back to hotel, will see if we can get a table at Trader Sams for more food
Wed, 20:37: Found a table in the dark coolness of Trader Sam's, ordered Asian wings, panko long beans, pork flatbread to share.
Thu, 11:21: Guess I left the rest of the evening undocumented. Food at Trader Sam's was good, bartenders entertaining, service poor.

Thu, 11:50: Never got silverware or napkins, took forever to get the bill. Not magical, Trader Sam's.
Thu, 11:52: Wandered through gift shop, checked pin boards at bell station and concierge, then to room for early night.
Thu, 11:52: Not too much noise from Downtown Disney entertainment stage last night, and didn't hear fireworks--maybe were cancelled.
Thu, 11:54: It's Krissi's birthday! Started off right by sleeping in. Then checked hotel pin boards before heading out.
