[mom2jcc]

It seems like a dream now!!! My twins are waking from their nap now so I'll have to update this later. Let me just say it was TRULY MAGICAL and was beyond our wildest dreams and if it happened to us, it can happen to YOU!!! BTW, we were at MGM on the BackLot Tour Ride on Friday, April 13th when we were approached...Yes, Friday the 13th!!

Oh I cant wait to hear all about. I really hope we win that when we go in October.

I definitely have pics! I also started a trip report today so look for that. The "Dream Team" approached us at 12 noon. Actually, they approached my Dh and Ds. I skipped the ride since the twins were sleeping. They just happened to be at the right place at the right time!! Apparently, the time, park, attraction or location is pre-determined and whoever is there wins!! They told us that there was one given away at Downtown Disney at a specific water fountain at a specific minute!!!

I'll have to update this more tonight...sorry! The babies are getting into my office drawers!!

 

[mouseketeer_mom]

oh my goodness! oh my goodness! Now I feel like one of my friends has stayed in the Castle!!!

How wonderful for your family!

I wondered if they gave away the Castle Stay at other parks. I was under the impression it only happened at the MK. Did you guys get to ride in a parade?

 

[mom2jcc]

Okay, I had time to download a few pics of our magical suite! Did I mention that this happened on the very last night of our stay? What a way to end a great vacation!! Even my Dh felt the magic of Disney

This is the main part of the suite with 2 queen beds that have heavenly mattresses I must say! On the opposite wall was a beautiful fireplace with a fake fire, but magically looked like a fire actually burning and even had the sound effects of the fire sparks. The sound could be turned off with the touch of a remote!! Above the fireplace was a plasma TV that was playing the Cinderella movie when we arrived. When the tv was turned off it changed into a mirror. I'll have to find a pic of that side of the room. Oh, BTW, the floor...well, it actually sparkled!! My Dd loved sitting on the floor (which was super clean) and what just did me in was when I got up in the middle of the night and the floor was still sparkling in the pitch dark...how? I have no idea...must be magic!! I really felt like I was living in a fairytale...we all did.

Next, the 4x4 massive pool/I mean tub!!! Look at the mosaic wall behind it and the columns. The tub had beautiful colored lights shining through the water. The ceiling above was a night scene with shining stars!

This was the room my son stayed in. This was taken after the complimentary turn down service. He also had his own plasma tv with a huge remote with its own touch screen. He loved being in there!

We could have!!! We had to pass on that incredible opportunity since it was already quite a long day for our babies. Instead we stayed in the suite awhile and just took everything in.
