These pictures are really making me so excited for our stay there next october!
Your DH walking through the glass door was hilarious, I would have laughed too, poor Daniel!
Your flatbread looked great but looks can sure be deceiving. I'll just have the zebra domes next time I go.
We were both dying! It was the funniest thing ever!
That is exactly what we do ....... we bring our favourite disney tunes on CD (about 10 of them - or we use the memory stick we have with Disney music) and it runs in the rental all the time. Had some fun comments from valets parking our car!
As for your update ......
We love the food at the Mara. During our longer vacations we usually drive out there, eat at the Mara (or Sanaa) and hang out in the lobby for some time. So awesome.
Your food looks pretty good. Love your DH's "african" choice of chicken nuggets.
Wow! They used to sell the Zebra Domes in a quantity of six. Only 4 now I see. You are right, they are filling - but so yummy.
Okay and I hope your DH won't be cross, but I nearly died laughing about the glass door accident.
And your DMs comment about the big hole was so fun too!
Seems like you shared a lot of laughter on your trip.
Such a good idea with the Disney music! I'm absolutely going to have to remember this for next time. I have 691 songs on my Disney Playlist which includes BGM, Resort music and of course the classic songs. I'm sure DH would hate me if I brought the music along with me since i'm sure he gets bored of the music at home when I listen to it
Did there used to be 6 Zebra Domes in one package?! I couldn't even eat half of this package!
Please! Laugh your booty off!
It was too funny!
I think I know why the CM laughed when he finally ordered... 5 minutes to decide to stick with the chicken nuggets.
:
I wish he would have gotten the stew or something after wasting all her time!
Maybe you should have gone for the chicken nuggets?
Maybe I was being too sarcastic. I LOVED the flatbread!
Those Mongolian's are still working, huh?
There was no excuse for him this time! That alcohol had clearly left his system by this time
Well if she couldn't see a pond, I certainly hope you made sure the door was open for her.
I made sure it was wide open for her!
I love the idea of a quiet evening hanging out at AKL - it's such a beautiful resort, amazing theming there
Sorry to your DH... but I have a really childish sense of humour, and couldn't help chuckling at the glass door story!

It was so nice hanging back at the hotel. We usually never do. I always want to be on the go, so it was a nice change.
Oh i'm extremely childish, which is why I didn't hold back my laughter when this happened!
OMG I would pee my pants from laughing so hard if DH walked into the sliding glass door. That is hysterical. Glad he wasn't hurt though.
Your flatbread and zebra domes look amazing. I am currently starving and cooking dinner right now and these pictures are making me not want what I am cooking.
Sitting on the balcony right now on a quiet night watching the animals sounds so relaxing.
I almost did pee my pants! I really wish everyone could have seen it. It was such a dramatic hit and hilarious!
Don't you hate looking at Food Porn when you're hungry? I'll be reading others TR with food at work, and i'll look down at what i'm eating and it's a crappy apple
Hi! I know it's been quite a long time since I've commented. I've been lurking while doing homework and lesson planning for school.
I'm so sad to hear about the poor lab and your Percy. Is he fully back to normal now?
Also, I love seeing all these pictures of Calvin! He is the cutest thing and it's really fun watching him grow
I'm really enjoying all the AKV pictures and information, too. My husband and I bought AKV at
Disneyland in 2011 and we still haven't been back since we've been owners. We finally planned a trip for May as a celebration of my finally graduating college and because, since I will be starting teaching in the fall, it will be the last time we will be able to go to WDW when the crowds are low and kids are in school. Until then, I'm just trying to get by on some TRs
Question for you on the split stay: We are booked May 18-23 at BWV and May 23-28 at AKV. I made ADRs this morning for the BWV portion of our trip, but it wouldn't let me make any for after checkout time at BWV. Do I have to wait until the 180 days mark for AKV to make the ADRs for the second part of my trip? I thought you might know since you're a split stay veteran now
haha!
Hi! So good to see you again! I was actually looking at my subscribed threads list the other day and noticed your TR hasn't been updated in sooo long. But i'm glad to see you back on!
Oooh you have a nice, long trip coming up in 6 months! You know what, i'm not sure! I've never had to make reservations for two split stays before - I've only ever made reservations for one of the stays and we usually do CS for the other reservation. I would call and see if you can make ADRS for your AKV reservation
Oh my goodness that was funny! Poor DH
Why in the universe is the Mara SO COLD!? I feel like I'm walking into the arctic tundra when I go in there! I'm thinking we've talked about this before because it feels very familiar
Love that Jambo House lobby and pool
My SiL loved that chicken flatbread, got it several times on our trip.
I have no idea! I mean, I understand it being like that during the Summer. But I remember back in December, when it was chilly, it was the exact same temperature in there! I feel bad for the CM's who have to work the registers. You know they're freezing!
The flatbread was soooo good! It was the perfect dish for that night.
