A Day at the Disney Studios


Photo-A-Day #3387

Today was a complete whirlwind. I started the morning climbing the hill with my friend Chris. We went up to the Universal City Walk to take a look around and to have a couple of Jamba Juices. There is no Jamba Juice near where Chris lives. I haven;t had one since I used to traveled a lot. They were good.

We got back to the hotel and then it was time for roundtable discussions with the stars of ABC Family shows, Young and Hungry and chasing Life. Everyone that we spoke with was very very nice and they even let us take some photos.

After our breakfast we loaded up into a shuttle to the CBS Studios lot to see the TV show Mystery Girls get taped and tour the set and meet the stars of the show.

We finished off our afternoon and evening at Walt Disney Studios. We met some more ABC Family stars and then we screened the movie ALEXANDER AND THE TERRIBLE, HORRIBLE, NO GOOD, VERY BAD DAY. IT was a really cute movie which comes out on Eva’s 7th birthday. I’ll be writing a review of that in the future.

and then it was back to the hotel.

Couple of Dad Bloggers on the Mommy Blogger Tour


Photo-A-Day #3386

Today I flew to California for four days and three nights on a Press Tour for some Disney movies and ABC Family Channel shows. I had been asking to be included in the tour for the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy movie and luckily I was picked to attend. I flew out early from Logan airport and had a pretty decent seat on the flight. I watched a couple of movies on my tablet and read a few magazine articles including one on Chris Pratt who plays Peter Quill or Star Lord in Guardians of the Galaxy.

I arrived and met up with some other bloggers, we took a shuttle to our hotel, the Sheraton Universal and had a quick lunch. I was going to try and take a nap but that didn’t happen. I was up and ready to meet the other bloggers. One of my good friends, Chris Lewis from Dad of Divas was also on the trip. We are also imageloggers for Samsung and we spent each morning walking up to the Universal Citywalk and taking photos after getting some Jamba Juice.

Tonight after meeting the other bloggers we went for dinner at the ABC/Walt Disney Studios. We ate in the ABC building and watched three ABC family shows, Chasing Life, Mystery Girls and Young & Hungry. It was a fairly early night and then off to bed. Tomorrow is going to be busy.
