I guess at least there is the option to walk back, but at night when you're tired, not the first choice.
Fun report so far! We took our 9 month old last year and will take him again this year at 21 months. Can't wait!
So handsome! And looks like so much fun!
Adorable. What a perfect memory.
Ha, you and I had the opposite problems. When we got Izzy's first (and only) haircut there when she was 14 months, she really didn't even have enough hair to justify cutting. A few snips for the experience, really. And she has been mistaken for a boy many times. She has not had any other haircuts since and her hair is still pretty short. Oh, well.So we held out even though he needed a haircut for several months prior to our trip. We had gotten to the point that people kept telling us how cute our little girl was. Sigh.
Wow, who would have ever thought a kid could be so happy to get a haircut?! Super cute! What a great time he had with all the toys and bubbles!
Perfect! Hope he sleeps well and you have some fun!Luke was a much happier camper now that he had a full belly and was thus content to go down for a stroller nap. So time for the adults to hit some rides!
We expected the same or worse since this was also a weekend night and the crowds were supposed to be elevated due to Jersey Week. So imagine our surprise to find World Showcase practically empty! I don't know if it was the chilly weather keeping people from coming out, but it was wonderful!!! And the cool weather was actually really nice since it can get warm with all the food booths.
I remember this being delicious...and I'm picky about seafood. The scallop was fresh and cooked perfectly! From the looks of the following picture, my parents ordered something else!
It is a crannachan: a traditional Scottish dessert trifle with raspberries, toasted oats, and whipped cream. And upon speaking with my mom, apparently this was fantastic! Sorry I missed it!
This was delicious, but I thought it was a little better the previous year.
This was so good! It was so much better with the bread. Why can't they just serve it at Food and Wine with a piece of pretzel bread? I would pay extra.
It's a Cider & Black - hard cider and black currant juice. I love these. It may be my favorite drink in World Showcase, even above slushes in France and margaritas in Mexico.
Let me preface this post by saying it is entirely of Luke's first haircut. For those that have no interest in cute toddler photos, well this probably isn't the trip report for you! For those that have no interest in haircuts, at least this post will have lots of cute picture to make up for it!
(It is also one of the perks of FP+. We were able to book the rides we wanted for early afternoon and not worry about rope drop this day.)
Then it was time for the finishing touch - Mickey ears! They were embroidered with "First Haircut" on the back to commemorate the occasion! Susan placed them on and then gave Luke a mirror so he could check out his big boy haircut.
Everything was wonderful! This was our third time dining here, and every time the food is excellent. Definitely the best counter service in Magic Kingdom. Plus it is nice to get out of the heat and crowds and enjoy the beautiful atmosphere. So this will stay our first pick for a quick meal at this park.

Yum on the Be Our Guest lunch! I'm excited to go back there in May! We weren't planning to go this time, but I saw an opening (since it's by ADR now) and had to snatch it up!
Perfect! Hope he sleeps well and you have some fun!
I love the first haircut pictures! What a perfect memory!
I love the first haircut pictures. Reminds me of DS when he got his at 13 months old. He is 3.5 now!! Your little one is so precious.
Ok, I'm glad you shared this! We originally planned to go during Jersey Week - we're from PA so no real theory to it except we wanted to catch a Halloween party.. but then we decided on the week after to catch Osborne and the Christmas Party.. weird that it was so empty!
Yum.... I tried this, but it wasn't my favorite. I think when I got it, it had been sitting under a heat lamp a little too long. Love all of these flavors together, though!
SERIOUSLY. Best idea ever. And you know that pretzel bread cannot be that expensive! I would pay double for that pretzel bread. Or maybe we should just bring some from home (or Biergarten!?) and sneak it in.
This looks amazing! Is it sweet? I must say I don't know what a currant is, but I do love me some hard cider.
I have extreme interest in cute toddler photos. And now I'm a haircut photo enthusiast because those pictures are SO adorable.
One of my favorite things! It's nice to be able to sleep in and relax and know that you can still catch your favorite rides.
I am melting.. serious cuteness overload. Looks like he did such a great job!!
YUM! I must try lunch next time. Everything looks delicious, especially that tuna salad!
What a pleasant surprise indeed!o imagine our surprise to find World Showcase practically empty!
I can imagine how it would be nice. When DH where there in Oct '13 there were quite a few dishes that we thought were tasty but that it was too hot to enjoy them.I don't know if it was the chilly weather keeping people from coming out, but it was wonderful!!! And the cool weather was actually really nice since it can get warm with all the food booths.
I totally get the struggle. I don't expect to get many food pictures my self in May.Between juggling the food and Luke, I usually don't have a free hand to take photos.
Nope just an hour past Hollywood Studios closing.I assumed the boats ran until Epcot closed, for park hoppers?
There was another family in the same predicament (or should I say another family in the same boat? Bwahaha - I crack myself up with my puns!) as us, so it can't be too uncommon an occurrence for people to want to get back to DHS.
That's okay, people really can be clueless. The number of times I have had DD dressed head to toe pink with big pink bows on her head and yet still be called a boy!We had gotten to the point that people kept telling us how cute our little girl was. Sigh.
It really isn't!And it's not possible to walk past the beautiful castle without taking about 800 pictures
Ugh! Such a pet peeve. Leaving really is the best thing to do in those situations.So we took him to the play area, but there were too many big kids shoving him and knocking him over.
Who needs a playground when there are boats to watch?!So when DH and I went to ride, my parents entertained him by letting him watch the boats instead.
I wonder if he even knew what he was talking about. How rude of him.So I went to the CM at the ride to see if we could get paper FPs to come back. "No." Well, will they accept our FP on the Magic Band past the time slot if the ride reopens? "No." I had read sometimes if a ride is down they will let you use your FP for certain other rides. Can we do that? "No." Needless to say, I was pretty disenchanted with that particular CM.
Fortunately, while this was going on (unbeknownst to me), my parents had passed another CM who was super nice and was giving everyone paper FPs for Seven Dwarves Mine Train to use later.
