All I Want For Christmas Is an Okapi, a Dinosaur, a Herd of Elephants and ...

[MeMom]

From Beach Club, I went toward Yacht Club.

Yacht Club is every bit as beautiful as Beach Club, but it seems to have a little more sophisticated air - not as relaxed - at least to me.

In the gift shop.

I thought all of these were so cute!

Where am I now?

Tennis, anyone?

Keep walking.

I love walking around Disney World.

There's not so much action during the day, but it's a lively place at night.

Looks like the Robbins clan was having fun!

Jill has high hopes of staying at Boardwalk someday. When she does, she can come right out here and sit on one of the benches and enjoy the beautiful view.

Next time, we go inside Boardwalk Inn.

 

[declansdad]

I'll be coming to Disney World a couple of weeks later. We always seem to miss each other.


Free dining is so nice, but to get it, I have to skip school for the whole trip, since they don't offer free dining when teachers can normally go. Hooray for you guys that get it, though!

We will have a day or two in Orlando at the end of the cruise, March 7 to 10th I think.

You need to teach in Canada, don't go back until late August/Early September. Of course they don't get out until late June.

Those are cute tops in the YC store. It looks like they have more clothes in that store than in the BC store.

Love all the pics of the Boardwalk area.

MeMom, I owe you a lot of !!!

I have been getting so behind! Here's what my April is busy with:
-online class: homework, writing assignments, tests
-Comprehensive Exam: I have to take this at the end of April. I have to pass to graduate!!
-Bridal Shower: My shower is at the end of April! I have other wedding planning to do as well. I'm so excited for Kristen and Chris to come.

 

[MHTeacher]

I was several updates behind, but now I'm caught up!

Love your pictures of Beach Club and Yacht Club. We've enjoyed both our visits there, and I know you will love staying over there!

Don't know the Robbins Family, but that sure is a cute banner hanging over their balcony!

 

[2xcited2sleep]

I love walking around Disney World too. Thanks for the virtual walkabout this morning. The Boardwalk is such a pretty area.

 

[RinkyTinkyTinky]

I've sure enjoyed this little stroll around the Epcot resorts! Seems like I've seen all this recently? We appear to have syncronized TRs going this time. Great minds think a like I guess. I can't wait to see your pics from the Boardwalk as that is one I would like to stay at also. You really can't beat the view from either resort though. BC overlooking the Boardwalk or BW overlooking BC/YC... pretty darn good either way you slice it! I just wish they weren't so expensive. I know they have prime locations and the grounds are fabulous, but it is impossible for me to swallow $400 a night to stay anywhere. I would really like to rent points to stay there someday though.

 

[TCKK]

How beautiful. Wouldn't I love to be sitting there this morning?!? Maybe we'll get some time on this next trip to walk around here and check it all out. Those shops look interesting too.

 

[Kgroo]

Thanks for the gorgeous walking tour of the Epcot resort grounds. Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter.

 

[Charleston Princess]

I love walking around Disney World, too.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BELLA!!


What a great party you had for Bella. I love all the fun details.
The photo op was cute and Bella does look older, I see what everyone is talking about. The tutu is adorable!
Love the sand treasure hunt in the pool.
BrooklynnsMommy, you did a great job on the cake.
....fun pic of the pre-party vacuuming!
Looks like all the girls had a fun time at the party, you ladies did a fantastic job!

I enjoyed all the trip pics this morning while I got all caught up on your TR.

Lucky lady to get your wish to stay at BC next year...Wig'd is such a sweet friend to you!
...will be had on that trip.

I didn't know your Disney Store has opened up. ...that is exciting news for you!!!
I didn't know you get an AP discount at the Disney store.
I was there a few weeks back and spent $200...wish I knew that at the time.

I'm glad to hear you had a nice diner with the guys for Easter.
Curious about soaking a ham...I'll have to try that someday. Sounds yumm!
Lexi would love to try the Dr.Pepper one too.

Ahhh, Easter is over now all of retail can get a well deserved break...until August at least when Halloween starts rolling in.
I have been very busy lately and I'm looking forward to the quieter summer months.
I got a big promotion...in a few months I will be transferred to run the busiest location in the chain.
And it's a closer commute.

We are very excited about our trip next month! Only 5 weekends to go!
I caved into my usual ways and booked some ADR's......just didn't seem right.
Some places were not available at this late date but I am happy with what I got.
Kona diner, Coral Reef lunch, Wolfgang Puck Cafe diner and the Playhouse Disney bkfst.

Take Care friends,

 

[Stasieki]

And to you and your girls, as well. We're probably going to be going to Opry Mills on Saturday. Wanna meet us there? I'm not sure what time yet.

It would be a possibility - we are actually planning on going a week from Saturday to Rainforest Cafe, but there's a chance I could move it up a week. Would love to see you all

You need to teach in Canada, don't go back until late August/Early September. Of course they don't get out until late June.

Canada is very far away from my family, though. I guess I will have to suck up the high prices and the crowds as a trade-off for our school hours.

And every once in a while, I will still skip school for a good trip.

Those are cute tops in the YC store. It looks like they have more clothes in that store than in the BC store.

Love all the pics of the Boardwalk area.

I enjoyed walking around and taking pictures - just soaking in the atmosphere of the afternoon.

We miss you, but we understand how busy your are, of course. You have a lot of exciting things going on in your life!

I hope to get a Cape May breakfast, too, while we are there. I thought that was one of the best breakfasts ever, so I'd like Kay to try it. She's never been there. I'm thinking it could be a sleep in morning and a brunchish time breakfast, since she prefers sleeping in to getting up and out the door.

I love walking around Disney World too. Thanks for the virtual walkabout this morning. The Boardwalk is such a pretty area.

You are welcome. I enjoy 'virtual' trips through other reports, too.

I know - staying four nights at a value versus one at a deluxe is hard to do for us.

How beautiful. Wouldn't I love to be sitting there this morning?!? Maybe we'll get some time on this next trip to walk around here and check it all out. Those shops look interesting too.

You're going to have a lot of days, so you will probably be able to fit time in with no problem.

Thanks for the gorgeous walking tour of the Epcot resort grounds. Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter.

You are welome.

We had a nice, quiet Easter.

I love walking around Disney World, too.

Not much longer, CP, until our walking will be the real deal.

Take Care friends,

Congratulations on your promotion! All of your hard work has paid off.

Five weeks will zoom by! Glad you got some ADR's.

Glad you got some DIS time. Sorry you didn't know about the AP discount. I ask for it everywhere we go that has to do with Disney.

I've done Coke ham and Dr. Pepper ham, too. Basically, they just sweeten it up a bit. I didn't have soda this time, but I had pineapples and brown sugar, so I went that route. It's all good stuff!

It would be a possibility - we are actually planning on going a week from Saturday to Rainforest Cafe, but there's a chance I could move it up a week. Would love to see you all

We talked about going to RFC, but we could also eat in the food court. They have some new places there. One day, we're going to do the Aquarium Restaurant, too. It looks like Coral Reef, and we've never eaten there. I'll let you know what time we're planning to go out there, and then you can decide. It's nice to have the mall back!

 

[vamassey1]

Such beautiful pictures from the Boardwalk area hotels. Thanks for sharing.

We've been down there at night but never during the day. It looks so peaceful.

 

[CreightonsMomma]

Great pictures. I'm ashamed to say i've never been over to the boardwalk even though I really want to. I wish time didn't always go so fast when we are at Disney World.

 

[BrooklynnsMommy]

If photobucket will cooperate I am going to post some of our photopass pictures.

Super early morning with Hollywood Minnie

Bella refusing to take a picture

Bella decided to cooperate

Acting scared

Great memory

Bella was not petting the Pluto

However, she couldn't wait to get to Minnie.

Minnie

Donald

Brooklynn with Goofy because Bella was against the dogs on this day.

 

[Stasieki]

Love the photo pass pictures

 

[Poolrat]

Loving those PP pictures!!! So funny when you tell Bella is comfortable and all cuddled up and when she is just barely getting there and trying to plan her escape.

 

[disneyfan61]

Love the PP pics!!

Yes Amy & I will hopefully meet up. It is so funny that we live so close and have never met. Almost met in AK one year but it did not work out. I was excited when she was staying at BC also but now it is AK. Anyway hopefully we will get together on this trip.

Have a great Wednesday!

 

[Stringbean&Wingnut]

Great PP pics!!!
