Let's give her a break, Churchy. She said it wasn't her fault... and besides, it's not like she posted backstage pictures and ruined someone's magic! :o: :rolleyes:

...isn't available any more??? :( :( :(

(Yes, this is a picture from the trip I mentioned earlier. Told ya it was a big deal to us that we could see dumpsters!)
How dare you commit such an outragous sin! :mad: Posting pictures of backstage, shameful shameful.

And I thought you were a honest lawyer, guess I was wrong. :(

Cran, slap yourself on the wrists for bad grammar. Apostrophes are NEVER, EVER used to make a word plural.


Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.

We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious…
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

I'll forgive the backstage picture since that view is no longer available! It's now nicely covered up with a wall. Unfortunately, the wall does NOT cover up the smell! I've never understood why everyone wants to go backstage. Backstage smells bad! :eek:

Does this mean I'm fired from my job as a CM? Oh, wait, I'm not one. :rolleyes:

Seriously, is there really a rule against guests taking backstage photographs? I don't remember it being mentioned in the dinner package material or seeing any signs to that effect.

I cannot believe I did that! I didn't hit submit 5 times...I have no idea what transpired when I tried to edit the first post and the 15 minutes was up and would not allow me to edit, so I just copied and pasted to a second post. I have NO idea how the others got there. It was really weird when I came back to the thread and there they were, all 5 gleaming STUPID GUEST TRICK posts! I am so ashamed.... :o: Does this mean I lose my fastpass to this thread? How can I get them the heck off off here? LOL! I think I must have a sign on my back too, that says "kick me." It is one of those kinds of days, blissfully unaware...

Oh the longest post is the "real" post, the others are just a figment of your imagination! LOL! One way to get my post count up, right? heeheehee... :twisted:

Thank you my marsupial friend...I honestly have no idea how that occurred, very weird! Maybe I have the mind of a teenager... Anyway, my brain now seems to be connected to my fingys again and all is well in Mudville! Hey, Denver IS Mudville. Our Rockies are doing well!
BACK to your regularly scheduled programming....
And actually I have not seen any CM costumes (although they may be there), but I have seen CM name Badges on eBay. I might just have to wear my Minnie one and have hubby wear the Mickey one. They are pretty nice, look exactly like a name tag with characters names instead. On second thought, an earlier post was right, I do NOT want to be mistaken for a CM this next trip. I want to have fun, not answer stupid questions all day, though the temptation is great to mess with people who would ask such questions! :twisted:

hey would ya look at that...my post count went up a LOT this morning! :hysteria:

When I did the train tour, they told us that we couldn't take photos backstage unless it was a photo of a train. I thought about getting creative with my shots, but focused on the trains instead :)

We did the Backstage Safari and we could not take any pics either. That was a cool tour, for me, because we got to tour the vet hospital where they do all those medical things to the big Animal Kingdom critters! LOL! Being a vet Tech, that WAS a treat! I have been to F! at WDW and it did surprise me that you could see the backstage with it's pants down, so to speak. I guess once you get back out to the Park, you are supposed to "forget" what you saw and immerse yourself in the magic again. But the smell, if it is still wafting over the fences...well, wait now, some places in Hollywood DO smell like that! :eek:

I really got a laugh out of the fact that we entered the backstage walkway from the gate right inside the park entrance... but when we exited, we couldn't go out that way]happen[/i] to have to pass by several shops to get back to the entrance!! :rolleyes:

I have the best 'legal' backstage pictures. Custodial CP used to do an overnight shift (not sure about now) and we went through attractions with the lights on. We were told by our managers to bring cameras and were encouraged to take pictures!
