Days in the Park Week in Review (9/12 - 9/17)

We had a great week this week at Days in the Park.  We kept busy and had something new almost every day, which is always a good week for us!  And we double-posted a couple of times, so if you add them all up, we've already posted into next week!  Time for a recap!

On Monday, we challenged you with our weekly "Magical Mystery Mondays" to guess where in The Parks we were when we took a particular picture.  This week's came courtesy of the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror in the Hollywood Pictures Backlot in Disney California Adventure Park.  We have a lot of fun with these every week, so make sure you stop by each and every Monday to participate with us.  Guess correctly, and you'll find your name posted on our blog come Tuesday morning!


Tuesday,we announced the winner in our first ever "Thank You" giveaway on our blog, as our reader Jeremy (Twitter @3DisKids) took home a great Disney prize-pack full of some awesome goodies


In this week's "Almost" Wordless Wednesday, we shared some random pictures from one of our last trips of the summer into the Disneyland Resort, and Mark met one of the most feared men in the galaxy which we just had to share


It was a Disney Flashback on Friday, as Halloween Time 2011 at Disneyland began with a look back at Halloween Time at Disneyland from 2010


And finally on Saturday, we celebrated our first "blogoversary" here at Days in the Park with a special "Thank You" from all of our writers




We didn't mention it up top, but we also finally managed to record and get out Episode 8 of our "Days in the Parkcast" podcast!  We've been on kind of a break with that while we looked at our show and tried to work on some new segments, and we're pleased with the direction and how it went!  We think it will better reflect our blog now, albeit it in audio format.  And we're super stoked to finally have Amy on board and recording with us as she's transplanted her "Amy's Favorite Things" segments from here to the podcast.  If you haven't already, but you enjoy reading our blog, give our show a listen!  You can listen to, or download, our show on our "Parkcast" website: http://www.daysintheparkcast.com, or you can subscribe to our show and listen to us in iTunes.  Give us a listen and let us know what you think!

And Halloween Time 2011 has officially begun at Disneyland!  We were in The Park last night to say that we officially rode both Space Mountain: Ghost Galaxy and Haunted Mansion Holiday, but that was really all we did.  We're looking forward to going back out many more times in the next month and a half, and will be sharing lots of information, and more importantly pictures, from our Halloween "days in the park" with you, our readers.  It should be a great season!

Thanks so much for stopping by!  It's going to be a great week, so come on back.  We love having you around!
