I slept in the castle Saturday night...
My parents won, and called us. :) We had 2 hours to get dressed, packed, and to Walt Disney World (a half hour or so away). That was the fastest I've ever packed! I have about 150 pics from the evening/morning.

Re: I slept in the castle Saturday night...
The pics I have up (about 150 from the evening/morning) are here:
MouseSteps - Special Events It's very random. I am at the parks a lot, and have never seen anyone else win anything (I did once win a lanyard). You really can't plan it. I didn't really find the beds comfortable, not like a Swan/Dolphin bed (I like my beds plush). :) The jacuzzi is VERY nice, though two of the covers started floating around in the water so I made my exit early. I loved the faucet, and washed my hair under it. I want one! We went to the Crystal Palace for breakfast. That was part of it. Dinner was at CRT, of course! Fruit basket in the room on arrival, they also delivered a white chocolate carriage with chocolates, and chocolate covered strawberries while we were out. Lots of lovely H20 products. :) Denise |

Re: I slept in the castle Saturday night...
I looked at your pics, and read that report and OMG, what a day!!!
I have a zillion more questions too!!! Here are some -- Did the Dream Team stick with their persuasion to get your family to say OK (I mean, did they seem prepared to make sure your family said YES!!!?)? Does someone stay in the Castle lobby all through the night in case you need somehting while youare there? Can you hear the nighttime CMs doing their work? Can you be in the Castle Suite during the evening fireworks? Is there room service? Can you leave the Suite at night and roam around the park? How comfy is that square toilet anyway??? Since you aren't leaving the park, can you just sort of roam around until the last guest leaves? What else is in the Castle up there, and how do you get to the room??? Whew... that's enough for now, but I will have many more!!! You must be so happy!!!

Re: I slept in the castle Saturday night...
That is just amazing, it's so exciting that TWO Mousebuzz members now have gotten to sleep in the castle. LOVED your pictures & I was so impressed that there was a gorgeous Christmas tree in the suite!
Congrats, that is just the most amazing Christmas gift in the world.
