When Meeting Royalty
On our trip before this one we had FP+ scheduled for Enchanted Tales with Belle. It was scheduled for later in the week that trip, and by the time we had gotten to that particular day we were so tired of having everything so scheduled that we just decided to forget it all and live in the moment. And while that was wonderful and very much needed for sanity’s sake at that point in the trip, it also meant that we had to miss one of the experiences both Syd and I were very much looking forward to.
Well this time we were definitely making time for this! And I guess that the newness of this has worn off by now because there was hardly a wait at all.
Funny thing about this is that I was not very forth coming with information as to what exactly this was with the boys because I knew that they would whine and try to weasel their way out of if lol.
Unfortunately for me Cory picked up pretty quickly as to what this was all about while in Marice’s workshop and when they told the kids to all huddle up at the front he was not to happy that I had dragged him in to this as you can tell from this picture. His less than thrilled attitude would soon have some karma attached to it however lol.
I got really excited when the magic portal started to open and forgot all about DS and his “I will get you for this” looks he was giving me lol.
WOW! How do they do that?! So cool!
So then we got to the wardrobe and they started picking out parts for everyone to play. Sydney’s overly shy instincts kicked in superfast and she ducked behind me as fast as she could. Poor baby she hates this kind of attention.
Cory unfortunately was not as quick as his sister. Remember that karma I was talking about?
It came in the form of a knight. Bahahahaha !!! Sorry I know it’s not good parenting to laugh at your child’s misfortune but oh well. This was too funny!
We proceeded into the library where the story time with Belle took place. It was really well done and Lumiere was amazing!
After the show they allowed all of the children who took part in it the opportunity to take their picture with Belle. They also let any of the kids who did not participate the chance to meet her, which I liked because it gave my ever so shy daughter the opportunity to meet Belle. She also received a bookmark which was neat too!
And you would probably assume that our teenage son was pretty upset with us at this point right? Well after he realized that another teenage boy had been dragged in to play the other knight, and he got to have some 1 on 1 time with a very pretty Belle, let’s just say…….
He got over it. I’m not quite sure what she said to him but whatever it was he was sure happy about something lol.
So after this it was now time for us girls to split from the boys because we had a very special FP+ to get to…..
At Princess Fairytale Hall
For I had scored a meet and greet with the sisters!!!
And I had one happy camper here!
We walked right in and in no time Sydney was taking her picture with Elsa. She was very nice and elegant.
But this girl’s heart belongs to another princess
Anna is my favorite too and her character was spot on too. She was wonderful with Sydney! She kept commenting on her funny looking antlers (Minnie ears). Very cute!

Someone was very smitten!
After meeting Anna and Elsa I texted DH to get their location. While we had FP+ for the sisters, they had FP+ scheduled for BTMRR.
Apparently it was not needed as they said they rode multiple times while waiting on our text.
We decided to meet them in Frontierland for our next upcoming FP+. On our way however I spotted my favorite stranger of the day……

He was rocking that Donald hat! Love it!!!
Onward to Frontierland!!!!
