Lol too funny. I have never heard of a kid liking butter so much! Does she still like it as much now? Also I love her Ariel shirt!
I never realized exactly how much she loved it until they started putting that butter basket so close to her at dinner.
She does still like it, but there are not many occasions where she finds herself with access to it. And thanks on the shirt!
Smart girl!
These appetizers plus your meals look and sound amazing! Sounds like a great dinner!
It was quite good!
Glad you got good tablemates. I imagine not so good ones could put a damper on things.
I was glad we got along well, as I've heard stories of not-as-great matches. It wasn't what I expected (mom, dad, kid), but the mom/grandma/kid combo was great and provided some different perspectives. Plus, they were all very friendly.
(well, Cash wasn't too talkative, but the moms were)
That's interesting that your server follows you to all the different restaurants. Do you have control over where and which day you eat at the different places? What if your tablemates had different plans?
They assign dining room rotations when you board. I know that some DIS-ers have very specific rotations that they want, but we didn't care, so we just took what we got (I guess you can request changes). Because our cruise was 4 nights and there are 3 dining rooms, one is duplicated. We knew which night would be duplicated and scheduled Palo for that night, so that we'd see all of the dining rooms. Worked out great. So, tablemates had same rotation too, but also had that flexibility to skip the dining room - which they actually did one night too.
Izzy reminds me of my little granddaughter who can sit and eat butter out of the wrapper like that!
Ha, glad she's not the only one. Izzy LOVES pretty much any dairy product. Guess she inherited my "dairy gene" (I was born in Wisconsin, so I claim I have this...
)
That mushroom tart looked great! Everything looked really good.
Everything was good. Obviously, not SUPER memorable a year later (
), but we enjoyed it.
Dinner sound and looks delicious! I'm not remembering the food overload on a cruise. Glad you had good tablemates - that makes meals so much more pleasant!
You can definitely get food-overloaded on a cruise. Especially because you can order more than one entree, etc. Or stop into the buffet whenever. Or get room service. Or quick service. Or ice cream.
And, yes, I am so glad we had friendly tablemates.
Izzy certainly enjoyed her Mickey bar!
And who wouldn't?
Glad she got to meet Minnie at last!
Me too!
She'll definitely make it!
I know, I'm so excited!
Yeah, i'll need you to get on that 2nd HI TR now. Please and thank you!
I have, I believe, 2 more days until I pre-register Calvin for Aunty's
90 days came up quick.
I can't believe you are so close. You are motivating me to work on the Hawaii reporting, though. I actually have all but 1/2 of the last update pre-written for the old report. Looking forward to getting the new one started! Though, we did spend the first half of our trip at the North Shore, so I won't get to Aulani until I'm halfway through the TR.
Let me know if you have any questions in the meantime. For what it's worth, we were able to pre-register for some Aunty's activities (the free ones) - Izzy did Stitch's Space Goo and Aunty's Aloha Party.
So does that mean no WDW at all for 2017/2018?
Probably.
But we do have December 2016, so that's ALMOST like a 2017 trip.
This room looks AWESOME! Like, I wouldn't mind playing in there.
I know, me too! And now they have a new Millennium Falcon room too!
These are way too cute to put on the doors. I'd afraid they'd get stolen. I remember researching for our first cruise over on the Cruise boards and people were talking about how lots of teenagers (or possibly even adults!) stealing the cool magnets.
So I purposefully made more personalized magnets because who wants a 'Leshaface' magnet!
Aw, c'mon, I'm sure "Leshaface" magnets would be hot items! I didn't know about the magnet theft, but I can believe it.
Calvin uses a guacamole delivery service with his tortilla chip
Nice! Izzy won't touch guac. It's a running joke with her uncle - he's always trying to trick her into eating some, but she just won't. She loves chips, though.
Brilliant! They are seriously so smart.
I was really happy with the service we had. (Especially Palo - will get to that).
Since the food on the cruises are pretty darn good, let's just say that you both enjoyed your food
I'm good with that.
