As God as my witness.I'll never be sick at Disney World again~~~wrapping things up...

Okay walking into the wrong bathroom....been there done it. At least it was DJay you walked in on....not some stranger. I had an experience recently at the airport. I WAS in the right bathroom and walked out of the stall and there was a guy standing there washing his hands. He looks up...we make eye contact and he looks away and continues washing his hands. I did a quick look around to make sure I wasn't in the wrong bathroom...nope it was him. As I stood there with 20 million thought running through my mind....IS it really a woman...a VERY Manly woman?? Did they change the restrooms to Unisex? What is this guy doing here? Why isn't he acting startled?? It was a strange experience...I quickly walked out and found my DH. I was telling him about it and the guy finally walked out. It was weird!! We later saw him talking to some police in the airport so I then wondered if he was doing something *ahem* not above board.

I love the chef story and I'm so glad that the chef did come out and talk. Good dad you got there! We still haven't seen Epcot at night....so I'm hoping this trip we'll get to experience it.

Your dinner at Tutto Italia looks yummy! I'm getting a lot of dining ideas for our August trip. Convincing my family to try Italian outside of NYC will be a HUGE project.

How wonderful that your son got to meet the chef!!!! And pistachio baklava sounds so yummy.

Yummm! That food at Tutto Italia looks delicious! How did Hunter like his pumpkin ravioli? I've had it before (and I've made butternut squash ravioli) and love it. How totally cool that he got to meet the chef! What a truly magical moment that I'm sure he (and you) will remember forever.

WHEW!!! Catching up on your TR. I have loved all the pictures and giggled my way through as usual. The bathroom incident sounds like something I would do. Glad Ethan finally braved the mountain!! My DS keeps saying he wants to ride Dinosaur on our next trip. We shall see if that actually happens. He will be 6 by then since we can't go again until June!!!
How AWESOME that DJay got the Chef to come over and speak with Hunter. TOO COOL!!
PS- now I'm hungry for some Baklava!! I love that stuff!!!!!!!

After 4 days of early mornings and late nights, it was great to sleep in a little on Sunday. I got up sometime around 8, which for me is sleeping in.

D.Jay and I headed down to do some laundry while the kids went to the pool. I swear it took 2 hours just to dry the clothes, I think "dryer" is a little stretch, it should be called a lukewarmer.

Once we had things going we went to the food court for some benigets...what could go wrong with deep fried dough and powdered sugar? Anything tastes better fried in a foot of fat.

Around 1 he headed for the boat to dtd....this is one of the things I love out POFQ is the boat to DTD.

Part of the genius of disney is getting you to part with your money...happily. And DTD is the best place to do it!
We encouraged MIL to go off on her own while we took the kids.

Hunter and Ethan both ended up making their own shirts.

I love going into the Art of Disney and dreaming of all the things I could buy....

This would look great in my living room....too bad I'm to cheap to buy it.

2 of my favorite things...Belle & carousel horses

Ethan wanted this for his room to go with his Mickey collection.

Hunter started collecting these pins while we were there

It would have been nice for Bailie to tell me that Pluto's ear was acting as an underwire for me....

D.Jay and the kids headed for World of Disney while I picked out some christmas ornaments.

Our last stop was Goofy's Candy shop....this took about 5 hours for everyone to decide what they wanted....eventually they did

I think Hunter's rice crispie weighed 5 pounds by the time it was done.

We sat and let the kids munch for awhile before it was time to catch a bus to the Polynesian.


up next....Did I have twins?

in our little town Pizza Hut is as Italian as it gets.

He said it was good, but between his headache and excitment he didn't eat very much of it.

it is so fun when you finally get your child to ride something new and they like it.

Can't go to WDW without dropping some $$ at DTD. Looks like you'll had a blast. I love the snacks. I planned on doing this last trip but just ran out of time. I have a real strong craving for chocolate right now.

 

[Charleston Princess]

Everybody's snacks look delicious -- I wasn't really planning on heading to DtD this weekend, but I may need to change my mind now -- the thought of a smothered Oreo is very tempting!!!
