All good things come to those who wait - July 2010

[gallmcduck]

Not such an early rise on Day 3, 6:30am, we all got up showered and dressed ready for our ADR at

We took some pics on our way in

Breakfast was nice and DS and DD1 enjoyed meeting the characters, DD2 wasn’t so impressed We were not sure if she got a scare at first as Donald came up behind her

Mickey came straight over then Goofy followed

DD2 was spending the day with Gran and Grandad back at POR whist we headed to

We took the boatride from BC which was very pleasant.

We got some FPs for RNRC and TOT then the boys and girls split up. DS wasn’t that keen on seeing aerial, beauty and the beast or playhouse Disney. The boys rode

Whist the girls visited

The boys visited studio backlot tour whilst the girls went to see aerial and playhouse disney. DD1 was a bit scared in aerial but she sang along in playhouse disney. Then we got together again and went to

We waited in line @ 12:30pm and exited at 1:30pm wasn’t bad at all

Cont’d in next post

Awww...glad you're back & everything seems okay now -- I've never seen pictures of this Backyard BBQ before!! Thanks for posting them, and I hope your DD2 finally gets adjusted before long!

Glad to be back ready to get started again. Backyard BBQ was a really fun evening we really enjoyed it. Seeing Fort Wildnerness resort was lovely too, it was dark when we left so we didn't get to see as much as we had on the way in

I have also never seen pics of the Backyard BBQ. The food looked delicious!

The food was much better than we had expected, we were pleasantly surprised A very enjoyable experience, I would go again for DD2 to enjoy like the older kids. There was plenty of room to move about and dance with the characters

We had an ADR at Hoolywood n Vine soon so didn’t know what we could fit in before then much more than we expected we would. The kids danced away at

I am not a big fan of star tours as it is a simulator so DH rode with the kids whilst I watched the jedi show outside

By now it was time for dinner. This was our first sign of rain as well, we waited inside for DD2 to arrive with Gran and Grandad. The rain came on just before we started to eat so I ran out to put the rain cover on the pushchair. I think at this point the camera went funny so there wasn’t too many more pictures taken.

From memory we went to Muppet Vision 3D, Indiana Jones and the great movie ride. On our way to see fantasmic, the show had started this was great fun, think it was called the glow show There was groups of teenagers dancing away to the black eye peas so DD2 and DS joined in

Fantasmic was excellent and well worth waiting for I was rather hot by the time we left as DD2 was restless and wanted to climb about during the show the only thing she enjoyed was the fireworks.

We had a bit of a rest day planned for Day 4 what did we do..............

Sounds like a great day. Love the pic of the CM and your DD in the parade!

This pic made my mouth water. DH and I disagree on the topic of bacon. He thinks the US bacon is hard and fatty and prefers UK bacon. I, however, think that US bacon was surely made in heaven! So crispy and delicious. Oh what I would give for a few slices right now.

I am with you on the bacon front I just do not think we can get anything here that is as crispy Not sure if I shared this in my TR When we visited CRT this year our host was really nice and definatley made our experience enjoyable she was so attentive and we didn't feel rushed at all, she kept coming back and asking if we required anything else and on two occassions we asked for more bacon. On the second round she brought back a full heaped plate with just bacon on it, on leaving our table she whisphered to us "shhhh don't tell piglet" that was such a memory

Wow! I can't believe how much you got done at DHS on a fantasmic day in July! I especially can't believe that toy story mania was only 60 minutes at 12:00. I guess everyone decided to go eat lunch. You got a lot done.

Love the pics of the breakfast with the characters. Your poor DD2, she was so scared. LOL.

We fitted loads in think that splitting up help, DD1 loved having mummy time all to herself It was such a shame DD2 just didn't like the characters at all, I have got some more stories on this. Your trip must be coming up soon? Hope you are keeping well
