A Dis meet, loopy luau, and 1900 PF fight all on our June trip~plus more!'10 PTR link

Okay, call me a goober, but I totally did not know that you could ride the ferry from WL over to MK and back. Honestly, that is helpful, because the day we do MVMCP, I want to have lunch at WCC. (*Excitement over*)

I have never done Rafiki's Planet watch, but since we are planning 2 days at AK this next trip, it will totally be on my "to do" list. Thanks for the heads up.

And Jiminy Grasshopper? I think I'll start calling him that, lol.
 
Okay, I laughed forever at that sign. . .

Yeah, there's a boat you can take from the MK to WL and vice versa. The ride is beautiful, especially at night!

You'll have to try Rafikki's next time! Haha, please start calling him that!

Day 6: Thursday, June 25 *continued*

We left off getting off the boat at the Contemporary boat dock. BLT looks amazing! I’d love to see the view from the top floor looking towards the MK. I bet it’s beautiful!

We walked up closer to the main building and had to take our usual pics:

Then, we headed inside the main building. Here’s another rug Dad wants to steal:

We headed up the escalators to the Concourse level. We looked through the shops and I walked by the arcade and thought of Mel (troobabiee7) because her family loves to hang out there! It’s so weird to me still that the arcade is there and the Fantasia shop moved out to the middle.

We decided to head out onto the observation deck, which was a new find for us last trip! The view is amazing. The sun was peeking through the clouds and shining right on the MK:

We headed back inside..We were still early for our Chef Mickey’s ADR, but we checked in and got a buzzer. Then, we headed over to the Outer Rim, which is somewhere we always sit while waiting for our buzzer to go off. We found some couches/chairs along the window and ordered a few drinks. I got a Bloody Mary, B/F got the Ultimate Bahama Mama, Dad got a strawberry daiquiri, Mom had a beer, and Sis just had water. While we were sitting there, we saw a bride and groom outside down by the Mickey ears getting pictures. It was the cutest thing ever. Each of them was holding a balloon and the photographer had them start walking in front of her and kiss and she took a pic. SO CUTE!

Soon, our buzzer went off and we headed to eat!

**CONTINUED**

It was so weird because we were seated out where there used to be tables for the Outer Rim, and now that the Concourse Steakhouse is gone, CM has taken over some of that and the rest of it has been changed into a mini quick food area.

Before we got up to start getting food, Mickey and Minnie stopped by:

Then, Sis, B/F, and I went up and got some food and when we came back, Mom and Dad went up to get theirs. Before too long, it was time for my favorite part of the meal:

disney091062.jpg


Swinging the napkin..Oh yes, I get into it..and I sing along and yell “C’mon and party!” when they do in the song..Goofy was hanging around our area and enjoyed my enthusiasm:

disney091064.jpg


Dad of course joined me…Yes, even WDW brings out the kid in him too:

disney091063.jpg


And in the blink of an eye, my favorite part was over. Boo. So I decided to get some more food to help ease the sadness. HAHA. Goofy stopped by while I was gone..Sis said he was not acting very um..appropriate..She also had that problem with Goofy at LTT a few trips ago..Poor girl, haha:

disney091065.jpg


Pluto!:

Then, Donald stopped by. He kept playing with Sis’s pony tail. Here she’s trying to make a mad face for the camera:

disney091068.jpg


She couldn’t do it..and started laughing for the next 10 minutes straight:

After Donald left, it was definitely time for dessert!!! Sis filled her plate up huge, so of course we had to take a pic for Grandpa. He’s a dessert fanatic and we definitely got his genes for that:

When we were done eating, we saw that it had started storming! Well, there went our plans to head to the MK for a few hours until it closed..we decided to head up to the monorail and check out the Poly..before going up to the monorail:

When we got on the monorail, it was obviously packed with people heading back to their rooms because of the storm. It was raining SO hard! We got off at the Poly and looked around the shop on that level. We bought some really cute Mickey candle holders and some of those glow cubes that you can put in drinks.

B/F and I headed over by Kona to look at the chocolate statues of Lilo & Stitch, which were still there! Yay!

We headed downstairs to the other shop. Mom bought another print for in our beach themed downstairs bathroom. It’s Mickey and Minnie sitting in chairs on the beach holding hands and looking at the Castle. SO cute! B/F also got a really nice Quick Silver shirt.

It had stopped pouring, so we decided to take that opportunity to make it back to OKW. We went back up and got on the monorail to the MK. On the ride over, Wishes was going on and we had a beautiful view! We made our way to the bus stop around 10:35 p.m. and there was a bus there waiting! Woo!

When we got back to the room, we talked about where we wanted to eat lunch the next day while watching stuff on t.v. about Michael Jackson.

~Up next: More rain, a new lunch place, and CRT for dinner!
 
What a fun evening! I love all of the pictures from the observation deck. I'm going to have to find that next trip. And Chef Mickey's is so much fun:goodvibes I love how you all have such a great time together:cool1:
 
Looks like you had a great night! Love the pics inside the Mickey Ears.

We were at Hollywood Studios during that rainstorm! Wasn't it just wild!?! Can you also see why I would not stand for Fantasmic in that?

I'm so late, I can't believe I haven't found this amazing report until now, oh well I'm here now:lmao:

Can't wait to hear more and loving all the pictures!!! I love the fact that you still want to vacation with your parents...my daughter and I leave a week today and she's 16 and all her friends keep saying "You're going to Disney with your mom again" she just smiles and says best 3 weeks of my year!! I love her so much:lovestruc
 
Nice update! The first time I went to Chef Mickey we had NO IDEA about the napkin twirling thing. LOL! The picture of your dad is hilarious, he looks like he's having a ton of fun!!

I remember you texting me that you saw the bride and groom!

That picture of you twirling your napkin is hilarious, I want to put it as my laptop background so every time I open it up I see that and laugh LOL but I won't because that's kind of creepy
