Hello all and welcome to the singing busts blog. I am Taylor and I hope ya'll have had a great week. I sure have had an interesting but fun week. I got my progress report from school and I had had 2 a's, 3 b's and a c. Im fine with them but lets just say my parents aren't. Well I have some news. I turn 18 on may 6th and and for my birthday im asking from my 2 sisters for a D23 membership. For anyone who doesn't know what D23 is go over to www.disney.com/d23 and read up on it. Its basically the first official disney community for fans.
Also ive been reading the book " The Haunted Mansion: From the Kingdom to the Movies" by Jason Surrell. Its a great book for every Haunted Mansion fan and disney fan. Ive read the first part that was based on the making of the ride and they basic storylines. Its very easy to read and is full of info. It has great old pictures and stories from imagineers. I really recomend it to any disney fan. Also just to throw this in the Walt Disney imagineering book is very good too.
Well thats about all for this week and please vote on the poll question and see if you can guess the picture. Have a great week and stay safe. O and please hurry back.....

My 8th Trip Report
Welcome everyone to another post by your ghost host Taylor. I would like to start by saying thanks to Jonathan and Bryan from the All About the Mouse podcast for mentioning my blog on their last show. I really didn't expect them to say anything. I just thought they would email me back but they went the extra mile. Thanks guys and to anyone out there who hasn't listened to the show yet you need to its a great disney world podcast and I don't ever miss a show.
Now to my 8th trip report. Im gonna abreviate it some because well we really didn't do a lot. Due to some complications with reservations we had to stay the Buena Vista Pallace to first 2 nights and the Dolphin the last 3 nights. We bout parkhoppers for this trip and this was the first time we have ever used them and im so glad we had them. To reiterate earlier said things we were their from April 6 to April 11 and we consisted of myself, my mother, and my friend Trey. We hit every park on our trip but until the last day didn't spend more than a few hours in a park. It was just so crowded that it just wasn't fun to be in the parks that much. So we just park hopped and got our FP and did the best we could. Some firsts for me that I did were the indiana jones stunt spectacular, the American Adventure, Ellen's Energy Adventure, Circle of life, and lots of new shopping. Some new places that I ate that I loved were The Outback restaurant at Buena Vista pallace, The Turf club, Flame Tree BBQ , Sunshine Seasons, and Trails End which was very good. All these places were very good and I loved all of them. On this trip we got FP from other people in the park 6 times which is unheard off! In one hour we got FP twice for Space Mountain. We were just very lucky.
A new thing we tried on this trip was finding hidden mickeys. We have never done this before but we decided to give it a shot. We only looked at AK for them because we didn't have time to at other parks. I had a great time searching for them. We looked all around AK for about 3 hours and it was just a great way to spend an afternoon. Its funny because people see you looking at murals and at pieces of junk and they have no clue what you are doing. Overall Id recomend to anybody to do this, its just a fun way to do disney.
well thats about all for this post and Im sorry its been a few weeks since ive posted. I made a 1650 my first time on the SAT which is pretty good. I got like a 650 out of 800 on the math part which is really good for me because of me wanting to be in architechture in college. Well thanks to anybody who reads this and have a great day. Ill see you later and don't forget to bring your death certificate.....

4/8- Go to DHS and use Evening EMH
4/9- Go to Animal Kingdom
4/10- Go to Magic Kingdom and use Evening EMH

My First Blog Post
Welcome foolish mortals to my blog. This is my first blog and I'm very new to the blogging world. I'm excited to meet new people and hopefully make new friends. The reason for picking the title of "The Singing Busts" for my blog name is because I love the Haunted Mansion and the singing busts in the courtyard scene always stick out to me. I am what you call a disney freak, but I'm not the only one, there are many others. Well I guess that ill see everyone later and I hope that you will vote on my poll and I will c u later.
