Great pictures! The food and drink look yummy! I love Basin too! We have gotten the bath bombs and smash them up so the kids can use some too. I have that yellow mickey soap and a white Christmas one too. I bought them LAST DECEMBER and just can't bear to use them - they're too cute! Plus I don't use bar soap for hand washing either, so it would have to go in the shower. I guess it could be just for me!!
Oh those drinks were super yum!
I haven't even taken the wrapper off the soap (just the price tag so Denny doesn't flip
). I will the first time we have friends over who may use the powder room!
I feel the same way about TrenD Mary Ellen! I was "this close" to buying a D&B bag in July, but I just couldn't justify the money. That would = a lot of margaritas!!!
That would be a REAL lot of margaritas. But those bags are so cute. What the heck is the mark-up on that stuff?
I'm gonna take a guess at the MEK Mug game and say you bought it at MK. I know they have a shop there with a wall full of mugs!
I actually saw those mugs in a lot of different places and I kept putting off buying it. So, no, I didn't buy it at MK. I actually almost didn't buy it at all. Does that give you a hint?
Looks like a very nice evening of shopping! I love all the "window shopping" I can do through the reports. It sure helps that I don't notice a lot of what I want when I'm there though, otherwise I'd have to hugely increase my souvie budget!!!
Me too! I need a much bigger souvie and drink budget on my next trip!!!!!! I do like going back at looking at my own pictures because it really helps me remember what I saw and what I liked.
Jen, love the idea with the giant Mickey head!
If you ever do that you gotta post pics here on the DIS, it would be fun to watch it shrink!
I think that would have been so funny to see her devour the mickey head over a course of 5 days. But instead she ate a bunch of small mickey heads. Not nearly as entertaining, but equally yummy!
Sounds like a fabulous evening in DTD! Those drinks really do look yummy! I may have to seek one out at DTD in a few weeks!
It was a blast. And that margarita was literally my favorite drink of the trip. It's not the cave, but its also $4 cheaper, so definitely a good alternative!
All your DTD pics are great! I love vinylmation! I swear, they keep coming up with more things to be addicted too! UGH! Isn't it bad enough that we're already to addicted to going to WDW?! Then we have to be addicted to pins, vinylmation and god only knows what else!
That is exactly why Jen and I resisted. Because I could definitely see how those little critter could suck you right in. They were really, really cute. I liked the holiday series. I really wanted the pumpkin one.
Hi, MaryEllen. We are back and I see I have a LOT of catching up to do. I wanted to get my TR started (which I did last night), and will spend tonight catching up on everyone else's.
Welcome back Kathy! So glad you had a great trip. Love your TR so far!
Mary Ellen, when you asked about my siggie, did you mean my tickers or links to reports?
Your siggie - yesterday or the other day when I looked at it all four siggie weres lined up four across. Now today it is two and two. Anyway - I think I am just jealous of all your upcoming trips. I have to wait until May to go again.
Okay, I'm all caught up. First off, MaryEllen your pictures continue to amaze me. And, Jen, your pictures are awesome as well.
Thank you. And Jen takes a great picture. She actually really understands all those settings on the camera, so my goal by next trip is to really learn to use my camera correctly.
MaryEllen, when we were at Disney last year (2009) we stopped off at the the POFQ on our way to the airport. There were greeters there with beads, however, they did not offer any to Mark and I (guess they knew we were CSR lovers). Jen, as for the mugs, I think it is nuts how people get crazy over it. While eating at the Pepper Market at the CSR last week, the server we had told us that when he was trained, they were told that guests WERE ALLOWED to bring their mugs back.
Can't wait for the next update.
I wonder what happened to those greeters?????
When I bought my very first mug I remember the lady in the gift shop telling me that I could bring that mug back anytime I came and could refill it. So people who get their panties all in a bunch about the mug thing are really annoying. It's a matter of using good judgement. I certainly wouldn't still be hauling my original POP Century mug around. I have upgraded it several times since then and will buy a new one in May if the mug changes.
So glad you got your Rita and the stand wasn't closed. They look yummy!
Great sunset pics!
I would have literally cried if that stand had been closed.
For weeks my goal was to get that rita!
I'm so glad you enjoyed the margarita stand. Truly one of my favorite places in the World. But, by golly, I've never thought about getting an Earl sandwich and bringing it over. Good idea. And those pics have me ready for lunch!!
Love the shopping pictures!
I kept hearing your voice in my head telling me what a great margarita they made. And you were sooooooooooo right. You obviously know your ritas. So please have another for me when you go in just a few short weeks.
