Aww, I love that you and your husband took this trip to reconnect. I totally get that. I really want to plan a re-do for our Honeymoon, well a take 2 maybe Ours was wonderful, but I just really want to go again! We did 3 days in the parks and then a 4 day cruise. It was SOOOO awesome. We're renewing our vows this December for our 10 year anniversary, but I think the next trip we take will be just the two of us!
Love your "drive by" hug with Mo! Darn those CMs for not understanding picture proof is a DIS-must!
This is so sweet! I hope to have a bit of this magic on our trip too.
Thanks!
Great start of the day picture! I also love your shirt!
As you will probably notice we have a bunch of selfies this trip..LOL. Thanks...I got it from Torrid. I always had trouble finding Pooh-sized friendly Disney shirts, but they have a Disney line. Now my problem is trying not to buy everything they have!
I think that will be my plan too - let DH take pictures if he is willing to bring his camera. I enjoy sometimes being fully in the moment - just you and the magic!
It was the first time I just sat back and enjoyed the ride...it was a nice change!
Fan of the mid-day break - I've never tried the up early and break plan, but you never know, maybe I'll learn this trick too!
I never was either, but I'm really becoming a fan of it now. It started on our April 2014 trip with the Grandmas...I had little ones and Grandmas that needed an afternoon rest. Then I realized that I kinda liked having the rest as well. I had not planned on working in so may Resort rests on this trip...just happened that way and it really worked for us. I'm planning on doing the same thing for our upcoming trip next month. We will have a group of 6 on some days, but that is one of the perks about staying onsite...if some want to stay at the Parks while others go back for a rest...then so be it!
Hi! I'm late joining in but your trip sounds great so far!
The castle is so beautiful! Loved your pictures of Ohana. I can't wait to try it when we're there in August. I'm sorry you didn't enjoy Flame Tree, that's another one that I was looking forward to trying.
I was obsessed with the Castle during this trip...LOVED IT!! Ohana was definitely my favorite dining experience during the trip. Fun environment and the food was YUMMY! As far as Flame Tree I don't think it helped that I'm not a big BBQ fan to start off with and then to top it off with the heat and everything...it just didn't work out for the best.
I never consciously considered myself a Poly fan, but I feel like I fall a little more in love with it each time I visit.
My Mom told me we have stayed here before when I was younger, but I don't remember so I think I need to try this again at some point in my life!!
THESE PICTURES ARE MAKING ME SO HUNGRY!!! Fortunately, my lunch break is in 7 minutes. Unfortunately, it's just a chicken salad from Subway.
Soooooooooooo good, right??
All the food was sooooo good...I enjoyed this meal so much (not just the food but the dining experience as well).
Awww, that was super thoughtful and kind of ya'll! (I'm totally selfish and kept my lei!
)
you are too funny!!
ADORABLE!!!
Showed this picture to my daughter, her response....EW!!!! GROSS!
Keith has deemed this his favorite ride now!
I loved how this picture came out...and it was taken with just my phone camera...pretty impressive if I do say so myself
Noooo! You missed the baby gorilla! The walking trails at AK are wonderful!
I know!!!!! I have told everyone that is going with on our trip next month (I love saying that...next month) that we MUST see the animals this time!!
I so hate that I get oozy on this ride now because I would have loved riding it with him, but not worth feeling bad for the remainder of the day
I'm telling you this ride scares the crap out of me!! Good thing I have Joey to use as an excuse not to go on it next month (yay...got to say it again...next month).
I'm telling you, the midday break is severly underrated! Especially if you like to ope AND close the parks, a rest in between goes a long way towards replenishing your energy, right?
I'm now an official fan of the mid-day nap/recharge!!
