When we were last at the World, DS was 5 years old. We used the Kidcot as the attraction for him, so that we could see the World Showcase.
He’s a little too old to fall for this old gag….and so, with still no sign of my extended family, we found a new game that turned out to be the BEST thing for us.
This is not a phone...it's a Kimmunicator.
Our Kim Possible mission was in France.
We went to Eastern Canada in 2007, where we had a thumping good time. Some things don't change.
DS couldn’t resist playing Peek-A-Boo with us.
The United Kingdom had the biggest calling card ever for the boys – LOTS of Beatles memorabilia. We spent a bit of time looking at the merchandise and mentally picked up things that we knew we were going to bring home with us.
DS wasn’t happy about being made to take a photo with Sleeping Beauty..
So, I didn't bother trying for another one. This is the closest I was going to get to Cindy.
We finally got a call from the extended family at this stage as we agreed to meet at France.
The window cleaners were out when we got to France. Perhaps I should follow their example and get a couple of bottle of French Champagne to clean my windows too.
I think DH might actually swallow the French Champagne thing....
I guess Disney must be economizing as you would have thought that they could afford to buy a better ladder for the lads.
Naturally, you can’t watch the window cleaners without some sustenance and it was fortunate that we close enough to get one of these.
DS decided he needed something to help him cool down.
After we met up with the family, it was time to get on with our mission!
I just know that someday my prince will come ….
I just have to work out which prince (or beast) is the right one.
The kids all wanted to do another mission…in Japan
And it was most most illuminating!
It's really cool how the most innocuous static displays suddenly take on a life of their own with the Kimmunicators.
Missions over – the kids sadly returned the Kimmunicator.
DS loves Bakugan…almost as much as he loves Disney and Pokemon. So, as far as he was concerned, Japan was wonderful!
Me…I was getting hungry but I don’t think fishing is allowed here. In any case, I think I've had enough fish for now.
DH is vegetarian and so Tangerine Café was the ideal stopping spot for us.
The salads were delicious. We had tabouleh, garden salad, couscous and lentils. Great as the salads and falalel were, for me, the pick of the dish were the hoummus and the olives. I knew from the DisBoard that the serve was huge and this was certainly enough for both DH and myself (yes, even with me being hungry).
DS had a kid’s meal.
And baklava for dessert. Not the best I’ve ever eaten and there was far too much filo pastry for my liking.
I didn’t see any spaghetti anywhere despite being in Italy. So, I ended up purchasing a book on How to Speak Italian - using hand gestures.
And I need to get the name of Lady’s hairdresser.
Snow White…like me…is still working out where her Prince is. Probably hunting in Germany somewhere!
By this stage, my cold was definitely getting the better of me and I needed to find somewhere to lie down.
DS found the perfect spot to take a nap; but I needed something more comfortable.
I headed back to POR and pretty much slept for the rest of the afternoon.
Here are pictures to show what the boys got up to without me.
DS found a game he wanted to play and did some stretching exercises. I think this is he idea of a perfect figure!
He also wanted to have a go at playing with the dominos. I'm glad I wasn't around for the clean-up.
I’m glad to see that they took in a cultural event.
By this stage, the heat and the crowds got to everyone – so they all agreed it was time to leave and grab an afternoon swim.
