Pat got up early and went to the convention center so he could get in line to get on the floor so he could buy some more toys. Karri and I took the bus (which took way too long) and arrived at the convention center about 15 minutes before they opened the doors.
We got our picture with Pikachu!!!
There are always tons of actors at Comic Con. Usually you have to have a ticket to get signatures and pictures, but we were lucky in that actors from Battlestar Galactica (BSG) were at a table and we could walk right up and get pictures taken (for a small fee).This is actor Michael Hogan, he plays Col. Saul Tigh on BSG!
And Edward James Olmos, who plays Admiral William Adama on BSG
I was totally shaking afterwards! It is such a thrill to meet someone that you have watched for years and love their work.
This is Bear McCreary. He is the composer for BSG and his music is AMAZING!!! I was able to snag a picture with him before the BSG panel.
In the BSG panel: Luciana Carro aka 'Kat' (far left), guy with mic is Richard Hatch (whom I met last year), then Bear and 2 others.
Afterwards we went back down to the floor and saw James Callis who plays Dr. Gaius Baltar on BSG. He's Pat's favorite and Pat was wearing his Baltar shirt too!! James thought it was cool!

This one is for you Stefanie!!!!!!!!
We were going to stay for a few more panels (like New Moon and Robot Chicken) but decided to leave earlier than planned so we could get on the road to Disneyland! It was Karri's Birthday and she got in free!!!!!On the parking tram.
With the Mickey Flowers
All of us with the Celebration Balloons.
I was trying to be artistic so I got a bunch of random pictures!!!Walt & Mickey
Karri on Buzz Lightyear. She got an amazing score! (I'll find out what it was and post it later)
In line for Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
The Birthday Girl and BTM
Disneyland has a new fireworks show for the summer. We were on Main Street, so we didn't get the best pictures, but it was cool anyway.
Then we headed over to Downtown Disney, to get some last minute things at the World of Disney store and the Lego Store.There was this awesome Lego mosaic of the castle with fireworks! I love it!
Mine and Pat's scores on Buzz Lightyear. My score is really sad :(
We got back to the hotel after midnight, and my cousin Catherine had flown in and was already in the room when we got back! Day 2 was alot of fun, and there's more to come.

I have no idea who any of the actors are that you met, but that is really cool that they looked like they were excited to see you (who wouldn't be!), and not like "another fan"! What a busy trip you had! If it makes you feel any better, I am pretty sure my score on Buzz was much worse! You make me want to go back to Disneyland!!!
That looks really really fun and exciting. I think it is super cool that you all got pictures with people that you love!
I'm glad you had a good time.
Great pictures!
Liked the dragonfly pics too...
SO FUN!!!!
Wow! You packed a lot into a day! Looks like you had lots of fun!
SWEET! Thanks for the Superman pic!
Wow! So fun and even more fun when you get pictures with your favorite characters, or with those like Ty from BSG who will totally hug you for the picture! I bet Xander loved that Pikachu picture. Can't wait to hear even more about your trip in person.
