Gotta love seeing them sleeping so peacefully.
We've ordered one of these contraptions for ourselves. I'm intrigued to see how well they work.
I hope you like it! For $3, you can't really go wrong. It takes a little getting used to - every microwave times it a bit different. And a random tip (that I got from an
amazon review of it) is to flip it upside-down after it cooks, keeping it closed, and shake just a bit so that the egg comes loose. Then turn right side up and open and the egg will easily drop out onto your sandwich (or hold sandwich up to it and flip). At any rate, they are handy little gadgets.
Yep, we were somewhat horrified too.
At least you can laugh now right?
Ah, sort of.
Definitely not my favorite memory of the trip.
That must have been rough in the moment.
It really was. I just felt like we were making a scene, despite trying not to. Just so uncomfortable.
Well at least there is that!
Yes, other than the sunglasses, I think our belongings fared pretty well.
Thanks!
Gotta love all the restroom drama. I'm not kidding that I was considering naming this TR "The Potties of Disney".
I love her smile when she saw the Storm Trooper! I hope your day got better!
Ah, thanks. I'd like to say the day got better - and parts of it were great - but there is a big thing coming up this morning that basically threatened to ruin my mood most of the trip and most certainly distracted me.
Those breakfast sandwiches look better than McD's! That's great having the kitchenette to get an earlier start to the day.
They are quite tasty and also very filling. Good way to start the day! Definitely a step up from the Reese's Puffs I used to have in our room at Pop!
I love morning walks and I can't think of a better one than from BC to HS!
It's a really peaceful and scenic walk. Of course, when you've got a whole day of walking in front of you and a boat is going by, that makes it slightly less enjoyable.
That stinks that the thermos leaked. I hate when stuff like that happens.
I was so annoyed. I mean, I even sealed the sealed thermoses in a ziplock bag, just as a precaution. And STILL.
True story. I had a student last year named Amidala. Of course, I had to ask if she was named after Queen Amidala. I got a long sigh, complete with eyeroll, and a "Yeeeeeees!" She actually turned out to be a pretty great kid, who later told me how much she hated her name.
That is hilarious!
But poor kid to be stuck with that name.
Wow I got all kinds of behind!! I'm all caught up and ready to keep up this time!
No worries, I promise to post updates REALLY slowly.
This picture is so stinkin' cute!
Ah, thanks!
I can't believe how crowded it was so early in the morning! I guess that is what happens every morning during SWW though.
And, on top of that, this was the first day of the first SWW this year. So, extra crazy, I'm sure. It gets busy all SWW days, though.
Oh gosh, the potty fake outs.
I totally don't miss those!! Although Paxton didn't usually decide he didn't need to go. He absolutely needed to go, but if there were too many toilets flushing and hand dryers going off causing all kinds of noise, he would freak out and refuse to go! Made for an interesting experience out to eat one night...
Oh, geez, I know some kids are really sensitive to surprise noises and stuff. Thankfully, that doesn't seem to bother Izzy much. She is more picky about the potty itself and the level of cleanliness, etc. More than once, I made a big production out of finding a stall that was reasonably clean (for a public restroom) and declaring, "Oh, WOW! This one is SO clean, it's perfect!" It definitely helped.
Otherwise, she will run stall to stall, trying to find one that meets her lofty expectations.
Looking forward to the pics with Chewbacca!!
Looking forward to sharing them!
Yum, those egg sandwiches looks good! I might have to keep those in mind for our DVC in May! It would be a nice break from the granola bars and yogurt we usually eat.
It's really nice when you want a hot breakfast that's fairly filling. But still quick and easy.
The view of Hollywood Studios minus the hat is just so different. I'm excited to see it soon!
I know, so odd to see after getting used to that hat.
Wow, those lines are crazy for so early! I guess that's to be expected during the first SWW!
SWW definitely draws crazy lines. The autograph ones are the craziest.
I'm sorry about the milk fiasco. Those leaks are so awful, especially when you try to hard to prevent them. And they always come at the worst times!
It really was an awful time for it to happen. At first, I was baffled why we could walk all the way there with no leak, then have it start once we got there. Until I realized that the security guy had been handling our bag and it was probably just right-side-up until then.
Can't wait for the pictures - Izzy and the Ewok must have been pretty cute!
It was cute.
The Chewie run was certainly an experience! I'm glad you were able to get the milk cleaned up. Good thing that lady alerted you to the problem! Milk after sitting in the sun would have been super yucky to clean up!
True, as embarrassing as it was to have a stranger stop us and draw attention to us, it would have been worse if we didn't notice.
Oh the bathroom fake-outs!
Good thing you had plenty of time to get that all straightened out!
Yes, at least that was well-timed. Gave me a chance to peek at the meet and greet too (couldn't see it from our spot in line).
I can not wait to see the pics of that meet! I bet they are super cute!
They're pretty cute.
Finally getting the chance to catch up. I love your Aulani TR as well!
Thank you, I appreciate it! Writing two reports at once is certainly quite a task.
Living vicariously through the SWW part of your report. Hopefully, we will be attending our first SWW next year
I am so excited for you to get to SWW! If there is anyone who is really planning in advance, it's you - I remember seeing you on the SWW thread and that you weren't even going until next year. I'm sure you'll have an amazing time!
Hey I made it in the TR
. It was so nice to meet all of you too.
I wish I had remembered to take a picture of our meet! But it was so fun chatting with you - I think we could have hung out even longer if not for our line moving forward.
How adorable is that picture of Izzie at breakfast, she does look very sleepy.
Poor girl probably needed several more hours of sleep, but she recovered quite well.
Sorry you had a rough start to the morning, nothing like a little spilt milk to start the day.
Yeah, sure ruined the excited anticipation of getting into SWW.
It looks like you were far back but then moved up quite a bit once you got through the tapstiles
.
Yeah, I don't even really remember, but it sure seems that way.
That's so great you got to meet Julie, she is so sweet. I was fortunate enough to meet her and her daughter later on in the day.
I was glad I spotted her. I really wanted to thank her for all the work she put into that thread - it was SO helpful for us! She is so sweet and nice. Glad you got a chance to meet her too.
Looking forward to hearing how Izzie liked cheese and the Ewok.
I am finding it hilarious that "Chewie" was autocorrected to "cheese".
It was a pretty good meet - and Dug was loving it!
