So Guys,
Ive already put this in the costume page but as the DJ threads all started here, I thought I'd copy it in here too.
Just got back from Our Bahamas Cruise on the Disney Dream........ Great Cruise.
Also a great reception from the Cast, Crew and Guests for the Davy Jones Costume.
Enjoyed the night and took many many photos with all of the above. - Great , Brilliant fun......... However.
We decided to attend the Mickey's "not so scary" halloween party at the Magic Kingdom, when we sailed back to Florida.
We paid $65 each to attend ( on top of everything else) and went into the park in full costume ( 90 degree heat I hasten to add !!!)
anyway, half an hour into the park, and we were getting stopped by guests wanting to have their picure taken - it was fun for all.
The Disney fun Police then asked us to stop having our picture taken with guests. We could take pictures and guests could take pictures, but guests could not be standing beside us.... Crazy!!!!
The cast member who approached us, commented that our costumes were awesome - best they'de seen etc etc, but that was the rules.
So we spent another few minutes taking some photos of our own, and they cam up again... " are these people disturbing you" I said no, its just disappointing that we need to refuse them.
She sent us to "guest services" to see if they would relax the rules (they didnt).
As it would be poor to keep refusing photos ( people would think we were the A$$holes) we decided to leave.
We asked for a refund , and after a long conversation, they gave us one, but after ithey did so, they would have to "escort us from the Park" - just in case we tried to stay in.
Over 10 years going to Disney, staying in their resorts paying for all the park tickets and food etc etc, Ive never felt so poorly treated by an organisation supposedly overflowing with family values and tradition.
"To all that come to this happy place: welcome. Disneyland is your land. Here
age relives fond memories of the past, and here youth may savor the challenge
and promise of the future. Disneyland is dedicated to the ideals, the dreams,
and the hard facts that have created America... with hope that it will be a
source of joy and inspiration to all the world."
"Disneyland is a work of love. We didn't go into Disneyland just with the
idea of making money."
