I love this! August birthdays are the BEST! (Mine is the 5th, and you'd better believe that I'm also considering our anniversary trip in August to also be a belated birthday celebration for me!)
Darn it! It doesn't look like any of our park days line up! Hopefully we'll be able to squeeze in a meet anyway, because I've got a little bit of wiggle room in our schedule those first few days, to allow myself to take breaks as we adjust to the heat.
We are flexible too, and tried to leave some time for swimming or sleeping in, which I am totally willing to forego to say hi to you! Just let me know if you think there's a time you'll be free and I'll figure it out
we just don't get to breakfast more than once a trip usually
That's what I love about your trips!!! Honestly, I TRY to sleep in on vacation. The older I get, the harder it is to sleep in. 8:00 is about the latest my body will sleep anymore
And I'm not much older than you so I sound like a grandma but I promise I'm not!
Also I'm not a huge breakfast person at home but Disney breakfast is a priority, haha
All models need props to pose with
At least it's realistic!
Your coat is really cute, I love the color
Thank you! It's in so many pictures from that weekend (brrr) that it seriously is the weekend of the pink coat
Yes! Please review this! I've looked at it a couple times, and it looks really good. (Almost everything on the rotating buffet menu sounds delicious too), but it's kind of price-y so I've thought about it, but always end up pushing it to another trip. I'd love to hear a more current review of it.
I know! It is a bit pricy for breakfast but it's only $2 more than chef mickeys and looks like a much nicer experience, more akin to California Grill brunch. The ravello price is $46 and I think I saw that you can get bottomless mimosas for $15, so that's still around the same price (a couple $ less) than California Grill with the TIW discount. Plus Minnie Mouse in a cute new different outfit!
Really hoping we actually make it, haha!
OMG we will be at DHS for the same late evening, we have to say hi to each other!
Sounds like a fun trip coming up
I want to try those fries at AK, yummy!
Yay! Okay that is perfect. Wonder what
@MeghanEmily and N have planned that evening
and if we could keep them "in our party" for EMH...
I didn't know vanilla bean butter existed in this world and now my whole life has shifted and I must get to GCF.
Yes you must!!! And your phrasing of this has now got "at last I see the light" stuck in my head
...
and the world has somehow shiiiifffteeddd
Ew these don't even look real! How did they manage that
I think the heat lamp for a VERY long time... our service was reeeaaally slow that morning. We had drinks though so it was all good!
I didn't realize your ears were made by you! Do you still have the shop?
Technically yes, practically no. It's been "on vacation" for like a year and Etsy has recently changed some of the terms for sellers so I'm not rushing to reopen it. If you ever want something particular made just let me know, I still love making ears as a hobby I just don't have as much free time as I once did for the shop! (It was/is/was mindiemouseshop)
Sometimes I skip ahead and so I read "my favorite thing in Animal Kingdom" and then saw a picture of a beer and was like YUP, just like my dad
We vacation the same! Haha
I should really take the time to stop and watch them! I've seen them in passing and stopped for a little bit, but never a full set
I don't know specifically why I love them so much but the music is so upbeat and danceable, they do a great job hyping the crowd, and the musicians are seriously talented. The saxophone player also plays at Disney Springs sometimes and the female vocalist also performs in Festival of the Lion King and was one of the main singers in the Christmas show at the magic kingdom (the one famous for the left reindeer being extra). I think I just love that it's the "old Disney" level of quality and care. I mean, people would probably be just as happy without them, and yet, they're still there bringing smiles and making music!
And this! Though it sounds a little weird... people seem to enjoy it. At the very least, it's very instagrammable
Odd story, when I was little my grandmother would get me from the school bus in the afternoon while my parents worked and occasionally take me to the local drugstore soda fountain (yes, we had one of those in podunk Georgia in the early '90s!) and my favorite treat was lime ice cream. Hopefully this float is similar? I will probably forget to get it because R is also interested in the churro ice cream sandwich, but I do want to try the Peter Pan float! (And just noticed that abbreviating it PP Float sounds rather disgusting)
