That's a Wrap!
Grand Californian Hotel- Storyteller's Cafe
I couldn't believe the day had finally come to an end. It was such an amazing experience and the crowd was leaving as quickly as we all came in. All the stars had made their way down the red carpet and were ready to see the premiere of the film. People had been waiting back their outside in the cold for the premiere for close to four hours!
That's including the celebrities that were all back there waiting!
We were in the process of getting through the crowds to make our exit and people were ripping down the "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End" banners to take them. Cast Members were chasing people down to get them back.
DH & I were cold and exhausted, so we made our exit down Main Street.
I had actually already made dinner reservations for very late over at the Storyteller's Cafe at Disney's Grand Californian Hotel. I was already prepared and I am so glad I was because we were starving! We hadn't really eaten anything all day. We were actually about a hour earlier than I expected to be, so we were hoping we could get seated early.
We left
Disneyland and made our way through Downtown Disney. I was so excited to go to the Grand Californian Hotel because it's will all the cast and celebrities were staying for the premiere! Johnny was also staying there with his family. They were not letting anyone into the hotel, unless your name was on the list.
We found the entrance to the hotel, which is strangely all connected with Downtown Disney and part of the hotel is actually right above the stores and restaurants. It's really weird, how it's all connected together. We found the entrance and had to walk-up and our name was on the list to get in, since we did have dining reservations!
Disney's Grand Californian Hotel reminded me a lot of the Wilderness Lodge, but a little bit barer and more open to me. It was quite dark in there too, so my pictures didn't come out too great.
My first stop was the bathroom after being trapped and standing up for the past 5 hours! I didn't realize how bad my legs and feet were killing me until I actually moved.
I looked in the mirror and my nose was beat red from being burnt! I looked a bit frazzled; let's just say that!
I got myself fixed and together, and we did some quick exploring of the hotel.
We made our way over to the Storyteller's Cafe and asked if we could be seated early. They got us in seated pretty quickly and we were so happy we didn't have to do anymore waiting!
The restaurant was really nice and they also had a buffet, which I didn't know about! That made us very happy! It was all gourmet food items and it all looked fantastic!
We were so happy to finally sit down and we were just beat! Our waitress brought us some of their fantastic bread and we had that scarfed down in seconds!
We both got the buffet, but then we both kinda regretted it because we were too tired to get up and down to go the buffet!
The food was really good, but it got to the point where we were just too tired to eat.
It was finally time to call it a day and we had our fingers crossed that the shuttles would still be running. I don't think it would have been possible to make that long walk back down the highway. Luckily, the shuttles were there and we were so relieved! We got back to Motel Hell and DH fell asleep almost immediately and I was on the phone with my Mom giving her every Johnny detail!
Then, the walls of the motel started shaking and it sound like gun fire going off all around. It was actually the fireworks going off over at Disneyland for everyone at the premiere of the film. DH shot out of bed and didn't know what was going on. I couldn't believe how loud the fireworks were and we were pretty far away. I finally got to bed after all the commotion and the rock hard bed at Motel Hell felt pretty good that night!
There's still more fun to come! 
right away
Oh, I just love the way he puts his hands together and bows to with his shy little smile! Awwww...I could just melt! 
I was too caught up in the moment! 
That would have been awesome to see all of those stars. 
The only bad part of seeing the movie was at the end when Elizabeth was walking off the ship she was starting to tell Jack that it would not work between them and then it skipped to the next chapter when she is on the island with Will. 
It's a shame they didn't give him a chance to sign autographs, though.
