Are your sisters younger or older than you? (Either way, it'll surely be fun for you three, if you were in more optimistic or jovial scenes like Fred is, (The Ghost of Christmas Present scene is close enough to Jovial as the Crachit family can get but Fred is all optimism, no offense.) Besides, good for you to get a more prominent role than what I got, (and to have your siblings in the same scenes to boot), which was d**k Wilkins, (for one scene), and unnamed background civilians whenever the scene was present-day on the streets of London.

One sister is my twin, actually, and she's playing Martha. The other is two years younger than us and is playing the youngest Cratchit that isn't Tiny Tim (our directors named her Elizabeth in the playbill). And thank you! I'm really looking forward to the show.

Ah, She is the one that tries to be sneaky, Correct? ;3 May I ask, is this a Normal type of Show, or is this a Musical Version of the Show? ;3

That is correct, Bab. Martha is the one who hides and then surprises Bob when he says something in a depressed tone along the lines of "Not coming? Not coming on Christmas Day?"

This is a normal version, though we did add a few different carols to be sung during it because the show runs extremely short otherwise (it's only an hour and twenty minutes, I think). At the beginning there is a small group of carolers singing "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen," and later on all of us sing "Here We Come A-Caroling" after Christmas Present's closing monologue, and "We Wish You A Merry Christmas" after our first company bow.

I recall my Christmas Carol doing that stuff, except it was mainly the younger kids who sang, (such as the first scene in the streets of London or during Ghost of Christmas Present), songs including "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen", and maybe another Christmas song but at the end the cast sang "We Wish You a Merry Christmas". (Who knows, maybe you got the same form I did, Paws.

Mm, I doubt it. The addition of songs came during tech week, as (like I said before) the show runs really short and our directors wanted to "pad" it a little.

So I'm on the trip to Disney with my marching band that I've been looking forward to all year. I literally (and by literally I mean not even twenty minutes ago) just got to the hotel I'm staying at, and guess which block of rooms we got placed in? :3 My room is at the very end of the hall, but it's an easy walk to the giant statue of Perdita and the balcony with puppies running across -- so it I have a little downtime, I'll try to get some pictures of those!

Oooh, A lot of Pups seem to be checking Disney, in Florida, this year, like Nemo some months before! <3
You're with a Band? I remember, when in Disney, they have a Band in before the Parade too. Does this mean, you be in the Disney Parade, Paws? 83
You're in the; "101 Dalmatians" area!? 83 That is AWESOME! I do wish to check what that one is like, myself! <3 Looking forward to seeing more Images from you, Paws! <3
How lng are you in Disney, Paws? ;3

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner -- the trip kept me busy (we got back Wednesday evening) and I haven't been feeling well in the time between then and now -- but I do have plenty of pictures that I wanted to share with you guys! As I had stated, our band was staying in the 101 Dalmatians area of the All Star Movies resort. And, as I had mentioned in my last post as well, this cute picture was the first thing I was greeted by when I arrived at my room! There was a border going around the tops of the walls in the room as well that had a different character from each section in it, and that featured a Dalmatian on it. The bathrooms also had a black-and-white tiled floor and the shower curtain was spotted, which I don't think was exclusive to just that area but was a really nice touch, anyhow. :3 The picture on the wall wasn't the only one to be featured in the rooms -- some of the other rooms that had their beds and such on the opposite side of the room had a different, portrait-style picture of a couple of the Dalmatians in their live action-counterpart designs, which I was surprised about! Dipstick was at the forefront, with Fidget jumping behind him, a small headshot of Lucky (with the eye-horseshoe and X-shaped face spot), and a headshot of Pongo and Perdita together. I unfortunately couldn't get a picture of it, and can't seem to find one on Google, but it genuinely surprised me to see those designs in use! Anyhow, I was able to get most of the shots of the more iconic features of the resort's area, as well as a few other things, on my walks to breakfast in the morning. Here's Perdita, straight across the courtyard and from where the elevators & inner stairwell were to get up to my section of rooms. And here's Pongo, happily keeping watch! Here's Lucky, watching the TV! Not the best picture, I'll admit, but I was in a rush to get it -- and yes, he even has the horseshoe spots on his back! I checked. ;3 I think they host storytime or something to that extent in this area, as we were coming back to our rooms one night (quite late, I may add) and happened to come across a group of children and one of the hotel's cast members at this area. The cast member was talking to them from behind the TV and the children were crowded around it. This was one of the many outer decks you typically see associated with the resort, with the puppies running across the railing and the dognapper truck up top. Unfortunately, I didn't have this on my hall's walkway, as my room was closer to the back of the resort rather than the front -- but I know some of the boys and other girls in our group that had rooms near us had it on their hall. Here is one of the back stairwells, shaped like a fire hydrant! I only used it on one of the nights -- every other time I would use the inner stairwell or elevator. Here is one of the many, many bones that lined the paved walkway down the courtyard! There were red and blue bones in a traditional shape like this, and also white ones with a "knotted" end. If you look very closely, you can see that it says Kanine Krunchies on it. The blue ones had that engraved in them as well! And finally, here is a very cute penny design that was in the souvenir coin machine in the hotel's food court! I think that's Dipstick, Jewel, and either Wizzer or Lucky together. Yes, I did end up getting it. :3 Unfortunately, there wasn't a lot in the way of 101 Dalmatians merchandise that I could find in the parks, aside from a couple of standard pins of Pongo and Perdita. I did, however, find this specialty pin of Cruella, Horace, and Jaspar parodying the quicksand painting from the Haunted Mansion, which I found to be pretty funny. That picture was taken in the Pirates of the Caribbean gift shop in Magic Kingdom, but they were selling it at my hotel's gift shop as well. Magic Kingdom was our parade day, which meant I got to spend a little bit of it backstage! I won't reveal too much of what I saw back there (it was cool but not super interesting, trust me), but we were, in fact, allowed to take pictures in our designated Disney Performing Arts area! They had all kinds of cool posters lining the walls of the barriers they had set up, and this cute poster featuring Rolly happened to catch my eye and made me think of you guys. Between Magic Kingdom day (Sunday) and the last two days in the parks, I didn't take a lot of 101D-related pictures because, well, there weren't a lot of things to take pictures of. Throughout our vacation, however, the grandmother of one of my roommates had been leaving us presents each time we got back to our hotel. The first park night (Saturday) we got princess pins, the second night (Sunday) we got little tubes of lip gloss -- and the last night we were there (Tuesday), she left the four of us each a little beanie-sized plushie and a box of donuts. She happened to guess REALLY well about what we liked (we didn't even know how she got our room number because her granddaughter never gave it to her), because she gave me a plush of Little Dipper!! I was ecstatic. My sister and friends also got their favorites too (the granddaughter got a mouse from Cinderella, our other friend got Ursula, and my sister got Oliver from Oliver & Company which was also super cool because he's so obscure). And, of course, I just had to take a selfie with him in the airport. xD That's all I have to share, but I hope you guys enjoy the pictures that I took! It's only been a few days but I miss it so much.

Doesn' Sorceror's Of The Magic Kingdom have a; "101 Dalmatians" mission, in Main Street, at Disney? ;3 These Plushies, you think on, are these; Tsum Tsum's, or something like that? ;3
I am checking the Florida Disney, on Tuesday, and it's good to hear some info on it! ;3
Though, It doesn' seem like your Images are working, Paws. =s
What you suggest, one may try, in the Florida Disney, Paws? ;3

Hey Paws I think you need to fix your picture links (aside from the first one) because I keep getting an error message on them like:

I recall seeing Cruella briefly in one of the Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom game windows, but I didn't do it myself, so I'm not sure if she features too heavily in that. I did see Fantasmic! for the first time ( loved it too -- Magic Kingdom's Wishes has nothing on it), and I was surprised to see her featured in that as well during the film bits. The plushies were not the Tsum Tsums -- in fact, I barely saw those being sold in the parks! (Or perhaps, if they were, I wasn't looking hard enough for them.) I have a suspicion that they're more common in Downtown Disney, which we unfortunately didn't make it to. This is what he looks like! Suggestions? Hmm...I'd say try everything! I don't know how many times you've been to Disney World before, but there's always something new I find there on each visit. If you haven't been to New Fantasyland yet, it's lots of fun, as is the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train.
