Excellent update!
Excellent update!
Really enjoying this TR! It's great that you got to do something different things on this trip. The fishing expedition looked like fun. My husband was dying to fish while we were there - maybe I'll have to take him on another trip. Loved looking at pics of the WL dock. Many great memories and pics standing there waiting for the boats.
I'm glad my husband isn't home! If he saw those fishing pictures, we'd have to do that every trip! Thanks for the great review- I may have to book it for a future trip to make him happy!
Yay, I'm all caught up now!
YAYAY Lia's back! I was afraid I was speeding too far ahead but I hoped you would be able to catch up eventually
Thanks for taking so many notes on the Yuletide tour! I learned a lot. I swear I need an entire trip just for all the Disney tours I wanna take.
You're so welcome! And omg I feel like that too. They are all incredible!
OMG I love the tip of laying on the pink circle! I am totally gonna do that next time. Do you think they would mind if I took a little nap there? Maybe there IS sleeping in Disney... in the lobby of the Grand Floridian.
Hahaha I think that would be perfectly acceptable!
I don't know why I'm even surprised that Disney would go to such detailed lengths of perfection for their decorations, but it's just unbelievable how much work they do on everything to keep it all flawless. Best company ever! And I love how much it inspired you! I can't wait til you work for Disney.
I know, hearing about it just made me tear up. I was like WOW THIS IS THE BEST THING I'VE EVER HEARD!! Even though I see it all in the parks, you realize how much meticulous detail is put into all of this stuff. And aww thanks Lia!! Please come visit me when I do my college program The current plan is Spring 2014
Awwww. That letter about Santa and really all your updates got me so in the Christmas spirit! Too bad it's July.
Aww I know! Eh at least it's not a random month like March or September Christmas in July is kind of a thing.
I love that you made a specific trip to the Tomorrowland Terrace. I wonder if the pasta alfredo is as good as the one at Pop... I will have to try it sometime!
Would we expect anything less from me? hahaha frump. And hmm I wonder!
And the Diamond Horseshoe too! I've never even been in there but it looks lovely!
I know! I wish both restaurants were open all the time!
LOL walking in circles in the MK. Wow, I don't know if I would even be able to to deal with those crowds. You guys still seemed to have such a magical night though!
I was like RE RE RE. There was nothing else I could think of to do.
I love that people were watching you guys catch fish and clapping! And the bagpipe guy too. That is too funny.
This is the last of your trip reports for me to read! Thanks for bringing back sooo many memories of all the mom and me trips I had with my mom when I was your age. Now I get to carry on the Disney freak streak with my kids Keep up the good vibes.
My youngest would love to do the fishing excursion. Have to look into it when we go down next.
Chapter 77: Teppan Edo
December 27th, 2011
Teppan Edo is very similar to Fuji Grill, which is the Japanese place we have at home. I hate to say it, but I like Fuji Grills food a little bit better. Its just more flavorful. I hate saying stuff like this because I swear by Disney food, but I wanted to be honest. Its not saying that Im never going back to Teppan Edo (actually we just went there in May!) but I do like the sauces or something better at Fuji. I overall did love Teppan Edo, though, and I wouldnt hesitate to go back!
My sentiments exactly. We have a Japanese Steakhouse nearby and I like it better than Teppan Edo as well, but I LOVE Teppan Edo. We get a longer "show" and it's much more interactive here at home, and we get more food. BUT, we also know that it's they have a little more time here at home than they do in Disney.
Great photos! HOpe it stopped raining!
Mmmmm, your dessert looks amazing!! I love how your dad and brother got the soft serve that you can get all over the place when they could have had Japanese dessert?
Keep up the great writing!
Loved your update!!! My kids really loved the Piggy Bank Adventure, couldn't get my little one out of there... It was great for me and DH because nothing beats A/C in the August heat!!
Great few updates!!
I'm all caught up again, and it I say it everytime, but it looks like you guys are having so much funnn!!!
I'm very excited to read about your CP expereince! I'm still debating on whether to do it or not!
Teppan Edo looks yummy! We have a really great Japanese Steakhouse by our house as well, so I'm not sure if we'll rush to eat there anytime soon at Disney, but that chocolate ginger cake looks sooo yummy!
I hope you are having a great week!
Those little kids on the dock behind your mom and Terry are so cute! You can totally tell that they wish they were fishing too! I had no idea that you could even do a fishing excursion at WDW! Maybe that's how I'll lure my DBF's parents to make a trip sometime... no pun intended.
Those pictures of the food at Teppan Edo are making me so hungry! Even if it wasn't super-flavorful in real life, the pictures make it look amazing! I really want to try that chocolate ginger cake!
WHOA. I've never even seen a Maelstrom fastpass before! They are far too hard to get! They are usually gone as soon as World Showcase opens. You are a magician, my friend!
I hardly ever spend time at Innoventions either! I know it was quite the attraction back in the day, but I mean who has time to do anything but ride Maelstrom anyway? You know what I mean.
Oh MAN YES!!!!!!!!!! OUR FROGFISH FRIEND!!!!!!! Lookin' great as usual. Whew. I miss him. You can tell he misses me too I think just from your picture.
Thanks for the shoutouts btw! EVERYONE STOP YOUR LIVES AND GO READ MY TRIP REPORTS!!!!!
OH MY GOD THAT CAKE FROM TEPPAN EDO. Why must I be in my house and not in Epcot right now?! I DON'T UNDERSTAND IT.
Woah, I swear you frumps are going to kill me with all these crazy triple and double updates that I missed. Well, I'm all caught up anyways! I love the holiday TRs since it will be a once-in-a-lifetime chance that I get to do something like this so it's nice to hear all about it. The Yuletide Fantasy Tour sounded like a ton of fun, so much fun learning ALL about what goes on behind the scenes at the World AND YOU GET A RARE PIN! Totes need to figure out a way to sign up for this lol Also, these restaurants you went to all sound great. I went to my first hibachi grill for my birthday so I really want to test out this one... because... And the Wishes Desserts Party! OH... there is so much I want to write, but I don't want to bore you too much, but those are at the top of my list for next trip ressies though I think California Grill is creeping up and Narcoosee's is definitely something to knew. to all the pin trading! I feel so happy to see more DISers actually enjoying this (along with Vinylmation which I just got into )
Can't wait to read more!
Wow, that cake looks yummy!!
I hope it stops raining for you guys!!
