Previously, Wednesday night
The Bueller family, after being feted with flowers (accipurposely)
..were off the DHS!
Ferris: Ok. So I did some hot tub time
Girls napped. (Ferris woke up that morning with sore legs, too!) We all dressed up (I had a personal tour of the 14th floor suites while waiting on the ladies.)
Its raining and we waited 30 minutes for a bus and then took a cab
.The Hollywood is WET! We have a corner booth at the Derby and you would not know we were not in the original except for the patrons! Having the cob, then duck and grapefruit cake for dessert
.wish ya were here.
Well, who do you think told em to order grapefruit cake?
Ferris: Dinner at the Derby
.Eh. And the grapefruit cake so-so. But a great Manhattan. Sloan Whites steak was good and the cob salad was rad. Now its time for the Little Mermaid Show.
Did Little Mermaid
.crap. Did the Clubhouse she loved it!!! Now its Star Tours for me!
Saw where Sloan White interned
cute 50s diner. (SW was a CP CM at the 50s Prime Time Diner. She was a hostess.) All other rides have hour wait headed home.
Isnt Ferris being the best, texting me all of this? And yes, he knows Im writing a trip report, but I never thought he would be such a thoughtful content provider.
Thursday Morning:
Ferris: Hi, well our Princess is T I R E D ! Last nights adventures ran super late
.home by 12.30 pm, and she was up until 1 at least being manic. She loved Disneys Playhouse. Essentially its a disco for toddlers. I have video of our dancing queen you will adore. Todays plan is to let her sleep in cause there will be no nap. Sloan is done with work in just a few hours. So LP and I shall do pool time until SW is ready for Epcot. Then its family time until Princess Dinner. Finishing off the evening with Illluminations.
So then in the most un-anticipated move of the entire trip, Ferris asks if she is getting a surprise from Auntie Tink
(already posted, along with one of the cutest moments EVER
LP, where you headed? LP: Princess Dinner. At 10.40 am. In her jammies, shoes, and sunglasses
.a girl after my own heart!
So since Ferris knows, (and he volunteered to go get it from the concierge I told him it was all set and it would be there before they left.) I guess yall can know, too
Who will the Littlest Princess be?
And of course, Auntie Spratt made the headband, made sure the ribbon to be a choker was in there, and
of course, CINDY NEEDS SHOES!
Which didnt work.
But LP had her silver flats (Thanks, GM Bueller!) and Im pretty sure that is what she wore
I DONT HAVE PICS YET. But I will.
I asked FB about Star Tours Way cooler set design than ride
.A 6.5 out of 10 for the ride.
They went to the Contemporary Pool for 2 hours (no hopping in my family!) and by that time, Sloan White (Thanks, BriarRose!) was done with work for the week YIPPEEE! They got the costume, (no presentation pics from Ferris Booo! Im betting he didnt give them time to present it
.) got dressed, and headed off to Epcot!
Now LP slept until 10.30 am, but they were taking a no-nap calculated risk. And risky it was.
I asked FB if the dress fit No time for Dress rehearsal.
Family Day at Epcot (and their last day at WDW.)
Ferris: Back at Nemo
.Soarin has a 75 min wait and no more fast passes
Now at lunch in Paris
Note: I dont know if the concierge arranged this or what, but he had NO PROBLEM adjusting reservations. At all. Or getting reservations out of thin air. He is called Ferris Bueller for a reason
(And no, just like Jeannie in the movie, I dont have the same mad skills
.but I have my own set of mad skills that work just fine. Mr. Spratt would definitely say that spending is one of them!)
Anyway, back at Bistro de Paris (I think!?!? It could have been Chefs de France
I havent spoken to FB to get accurate details yet
)
While it is not actually France
.it could easily be argued they have the tastiest food in the Kingdom. Its always yum when butter is a primary ingredient.
Dont you just love recipes that begin first you take a stick of butter
.
And now, for the funniest text I received (it may not be funny to you, but I have a sick sense of humour
)
3.31 pm I do NOT recommend beer and French food before Mission Space!
Well, no ****, Sherlock! Being the good DISer that I am , I immediately asked Green or Orange --
Orange! Dad would have died. (Yoda, the beloved Mr. Bueller, is claustrophobic. No spelunking as a family for us!) And, when I talked to him a bit later, he did say that he had NO CLUE that Orange was so intense
..
3.42 pm on Spaceship Earth now
Still feel sick.
4.02 pm Still feel sick.
5.03pm (he must be feeling better) Just saw Tigger, Pooh, and E
they loved it!
Ok so the characters loved it? Sloan White and Littlest Princess loved it?
Then this: Even the people in line were going gaga.
Hmm. Sounds like we need more info on this
..
AND then, FINALLY
Ok, we made it
.she is changing. (I wish her Auntie Fairy GodMomma could be there for the transformation!)
5.41 pm (6.41pm DST) We are checked in and just waiting for the announcement of the Royal Bueller Family!
Note the exclamation mark?
And my third favorite text of the trip
.
FB: If I see one more Hollister shirt
. I laughed out loud when I got this one. My co-workers thought I was crazy.
SO
how did the outfit turn out?
FB: The shoes were a no go. But her outfit made people go Ohhhhh and Ahhhhh. Including me. Its kinda creepy like the beauty pageants for children.
But dont forget I still think that if I hadnt sent a costume for tonight, Ferris would have purchased one in the park
.well never know, though. He will DENY DENY DENY until the bitter end.
But we know
..
7.30 pm DST (and their reservation was for 7!): FB: So we have met 5 princesses and one Scandinavian Queen
.our server. LOL.
7.42pm DST FB: We ran a calculated risk with no nap today
.And she is fading. We are going to see Illuminations
then it is back to the hotel where we lived Happily Ever After
.
I called my father after the last text, and told him, I won! He inquired how
all I can say is that my Big Brother had a GREAT time at the World, and both his wife and I were worried hence the planning, my work to make sure that there was Plenty of Pixie Dust
and I succeeded! FB also called Momma and Daddy (yes, Im 35 Im also Texan
be quiet!) all the time, and Yoda was tickled at how much fun Ferris was having watching his daughter have such a great time.
8.10 DST FB: So she just hung out with the lovely Miss Belle for 5 min
.Another unscripted magic moment
Made me very happy.
(Isnt he great!)
8.43 DST FB: Sitting in front of Illuminations
perfect center.
9.32 DST FB: Great show! Great ending to a terrific Disney week!
(My brother using the word Terrific? WOW!)
They had an easy flight, and made it home safely on Friday.
Pics to come when I get them!
, and I know that you will be enjoying your own magical WDW trip with your own little one in the future
