Breakfast was excellent as always, glad we got in Wish we had more time in the room to enjoy the view but we were out the door at 7am every morning and crashing late at night. I think Des had that shirt for a while...she goes to WDW alot.

Next year, we have got to meet up next year!

we don't spend too much time in our room either will have to have Kathy ask Des when/where she got it, never seen it in the parks

we will be there Nov 26 - Dec 7 2013 and staying at AofA...Kathy already knows about our dates too! we've GOT TO MEET you all!

Beaches & cream looks yummy, haven't eaten there since 2008 might need to try it again next year!

 

[scanne]

Love your reviews! Glad there's another set to read.

 

[ILikeWaffles]

Beaches and Cream looked great! I love reading your reviews.

 

[Nermel9]

Yay can't wait to read your reviews, loving them so far! I love Beaches and Cream, I've only been once but it was adorable and I'd love to go back! Boma is always so good for breakfast, yum!

 

[jecskc]

I'm here !! Loving your reviews so far !! Looking forward to seeing what Kathy has to add as well. Love seeing that her son and his GF came along. I have been looking to see if she was going to start a TR, but so far she hasn't. I feel sure that she will though.

 

[reking96]

Following ... You are the QUEEN of dinning reviews! I hope to do one half as well as yours someday!

 

[tallen429]

I gained a pound just reading...
And that open faced sandwich....droooool.

Egg rolls??

"mmmmmm...egggrooollllls" (in my best Homer Simpson voice")

 

[WDWaddictt]

I am following you over from Kathy's PTR.

I also followed you on your last food review and I really enjoyed it so I am looking forward to reading more on this one!

I wonder how many walk ups I can count....

 

[KatMark]

BOMA BOMA BOMA!

Yes!! We are going to get a walk up on this trip! We showered and checked out of the hotel and drove right over to the AKL.

The tree at AKL is beautiful, and I was drooling looking at your breakfast pictures.

After a wonderful filling meal, with amazing coffee by the way, we hopped in the car to drive to DTD...believe it or not the parking lot was filling up! Come on Todd we have some shopping to do!

LOVE shopping.

Great picture!

I was able to pick up a few things for my youngest niece and we had some fun just checking out the area and of course snacking!

Goofy's Candy Shop

I'll take one of each please.

No trip is complete without a pretzel! This one is a sour cream and onion...he loved it!

Of course.

Great view.

So glad we got to see the decorations here.

At this time Kathy text me to tell me to get on over to the CSR so we could surprise Mark and let me tell you he was bowled over!

My phone was going to die after all the texting we were doing from the moment we landed.

Here is the tree at the CSR

It is a beautiful tree.

Once we did our suprise to Mark and hugs and kisses all around we went back to the Dolphin to relax while Kathy and family did the same. The plan was to meet up in the lobby of the Dolphin so we could tour the resorts and have dinner at Beaches and Cream

For those of you who aren't following my PTR or my TR which hasn't started yet, here's the video of my husband seeing Nicki...not only did he not know about the trip until the night we packed, he did not know Nicki and Todd were coming until they showed up:



Des had the cheeseburger and I am guessing she liked it because she was very quiet during that meal

Yes, we was quiet during the meal...but then we didn't really let her get in a word either.

Todd and Mark both had the open faced pot roast sandwich and they said it was very tasty, a bit too much potato but overall a winner

Fantastic meal at Beaches and Cream, would not hesitate to go back!

We are still talking about how much we enjoyed that meal...delicious. A great way to start the trip.

Of course and it was the BESTEST trip ever...we must do this every year!

We've had some wonderful and memorable trips, but this one was definitely the tops for us.


So happy you are in for the trip of a lifetime! 6 months of keeping it a secret was a killer!

It sure was.

we don't spend too much time in our room either will have to have Kathy ask Des when/where she got it, never seen it in the parks

Des said she got it in Epcot in February when she was there with Andy.

I'm here !! Loving your reviews so far !! Looking forward to seeing what Kathy has to add as well. Love seeing that her son and his GF came along. I have been looking to see if she was going to start a TR, but so far she hasn't. I feel sure that she will though.

Hey, Susan. The TR will be started next week. I'm hoping to order the Photopass CD and am having it sent overnight mail and then I can start.

 

[jedijill]

Hopped over from Kathy's PTR/TR... Love how this trip came together and that you were able to pull it off!
