Nope, this was all the past week, at about 1-5 PM in the afternoon. No parties.

Then you could just tell everyone you are dressed like a commoner, to be able to mingle with all of the "little people" that make up your kingdom!
I like it GP! That is such a great idea! My throne on wheels.... :D:

You are gonna put wheels on your toilet..... oh wait, thats a man's throne ;) .


Light travels faster than sound. Perhaps that is why people appear bright until they open their mouth.

They wish! "Snow White" Looked like a reject from some punk girl band with her colored hair extensions and tired face. The one in pink was a middle aged woman trapped in an 80's prom gown and seemed as if she was trying too hard to look like she was young.

Last thing from light, flitty, and delicate. Almost as if they were the haggard doppelgangers of actual princesses.

That's why I had to laugh when I passed them.

No adults are supposed to be allowed to wear costumes. I personally agree with the policy. I'm sure 99% of the people look nothing like the princesses, but if they are in any way dressed up there will always be guests who mistake them for a Disney character. Just look at the number of guests who wait in line for a character whose name they don't even know. Besides that, you don't want to get into judgment calls of whether or not somebody looks enough like a character to be precluded from wearing a costume. You'll have people claiming discrimination because they are too pretty, like those airheads who got thrown off the plane for picking a flight and swear it's because they're too pretty :rolleyes: .


Petite and Proud!

Maybe they're related to Linda Skywalker and dress up because they think THEY are the Princesses. Kinda like the late Clayton Moore used to always wear his Lone Ranger mask all the time. Some people are so delusional they think they are whoever they think they are, even if they don't look anything like whoever it is they're supposed to be.
